Hogwarts Homecoming

If the breeze lingering in the forest blew Harry's messy black hair, an hour later, the sun's rays, which became more intense, could finally break through the dense tree canopy, leaving strange lights and shadows on the ground of the Forbidden Forest.

After Beauxbatons' Warriors assistant spoke, both teams fell silent.

How should I put it? Ever since he met Malfoy, Harry had been thinking about this possibility in his mind.

The purpose of the students in the physical education class entering the competition was not to kick all the Warriors out, but to snatch the school badges from their hands.

However, Harry had been convincing himself that Professor Brain would not arrange it this way, because if so, no team would be able to win.

"Sorry, Fleur, we need to check-"

Judging from Hermione's dull expression, she was not unexpected about this result.

"it's up to you--"

Fleur was not as annoyed by this request as her teammates. Instead, she turned around in a circle, opened her arms, and smiled provocatively at Harry.

"Come on, Harry."

Unless I want to be ruined!

Harry cursed in his heart and turned away with a slight blush on his face, while Ron also turned his head away.

"All petrified!"

Before approaching Fleur and Triana, Hermione petrified them vigilantly. This move made Fleur look dissatisfied.

After a while of groping, Hermione silently stepped back and waved her hand to remove Fleur and Triana from being petrified.

"Feel sorry--"

Hermione placed Fleur's and Triana's wands on the ground and nodded in apology, but Fleur didn't respond, just raised her nose and snorted.

"Harry, Ron, Malfoy and the others will be here soon. We have to get out of here quickly."

Hermione waved to Harry and Ron, and Harry quickly jumped past Fleur and caught up with Hermione and Ron.

But just before he was about to dodge into the woods, Harry suddenly stopped. He turned his head and looked at the two miserable girls standing by the stream with messy hair and a lot of mud on their clothes. His green eyes flashed with hesitation.

"Wait, Ron."

Harry suddenly stopped Ron, and Hermione stopped as well, both of them casting confused looks at Harry.

Harry came up behind Ron in three steps at a time, opened his backpack amidst Ron's screams, and took some bread and pie from inside.

"For you guys."

Harry put the food into Fleur's hand. Under the surprised gazes of the two girls, Harry said frankly,

"Since Malfoy has taken away the school badge from you, there is no need to be nervous, right? You can eat something to replenish your strength and take a break."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"You're helping our enemies, Harry."

As the three of them ran, Ron wrinkled his nose and said in a reproachful tone.

"They are no longer a threat anyway, right?"

Harry said nonchalantly.

Hermione's brown eyes flickered.

In fact, Furong's team is not without threats.

Although they lost their school badges, it can be seen from the fact that they were not expelled from the field that they were still qualified to compete for the final victory, that is, to snatch the school badges of other teams.

But Hermione didn't point this out, and she admired Harry's approach.

When the game lasted for just over an hour, Hermione had already mastered some invisible rules.

First of all, the most important thing is that in addition to the four teams, the students in the physical education class are also competing for the school badge. Currently, only the Slytherin students have appeared. Where are the students from the other three houses and what are they doing? It is still unknown.

Secondly, from the perspective of the Furong team, after the school badge is taken away, they are not immediately expelled from the field but still have a chance to make a comeback.

In the end, this was her guess.

The game will only end in one situation, and that is when all four teams' school badges are taken away. Thinking of this, Hermione's voice became tighter,

"We have to hurry, Harry, Ron—"

Hermione's breathing became heavier and heavier;

"Malfoy and the others have broomsticks. We must rush to the nearest team as soon as possible and take away their school badges before leaving. Otherwise, once the school badges fall into the hands of Malfoy and the others, we will be completely out of luck!"

Hearing Hermione's reminder, Ron, who was already sore all over his body after constantly shifting positions at high intensity for an hour, clenched his teeth and tried to follow.

It wasn't until the backs of the three Hogwarts people completely disappeared from sight that Fleur and Triana woke up from their dazed state.

Fleur looked at the slices of bread and pie in her hands, her eyelashes flickered, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"What a funny little boy, aren't you?"

"It is undeniable that he has some of the gentlemanly qualities that the British like to boast about themselves."

Triana also shrugged her shoulders and said, she walked quickly to where Hermione was just standing, and it wasn't until the wand that had been taken away was held in her palm again that Triana breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning around, Triana found that Fleur had found a stone to sit on, combing her hair with her hands while eating what Harry gave her.

"Are you really going to rest, Fleur?"

"His proposal makes sense, doesn't it?"

Fleur placed the wand handed over by Triana on her legs together, and handed Triana some food.

"We don't have to worry even if someone finds out that we don't have a school badge. But if we want to take the opportunity to steal someone else's school badge, then we need to ensure sufficient physical strength."

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Triana admitted Fleur's statement.

She breathed a long sigh of relief while chewing pieces of bread. For the first time since entering the Forbidden Forest, she quietly admired the scenery here, enjoying the comfort of the sun shining on her face with its heat and intensity weakened. However, Tria Na couldn't really relax.

"Do you really think we have a chance of victory, Fleur?"

Triana turned her face to look at Furong. The beautiful face of the girl next to her who was bathed in golden silk-like sunlight made her feel dazed for a moment. She used her will to get rid of the jealousy that emerged from the bottom of her heart. Said unwillingly,

"That Judy guy was crushed by the darkness and we are the only ones left."

For no reason, Amosta's calm and smiling face flashed into his mind.

Furong held her cheek in one hand, and her slender fingers, which were somewhat transparent in the sunlight, tapped her delicate face.

"how to say"

Fleur pursed her lips and said,

"As you can see, Triana, the competition system designed by Amosta is very interesting. Of course, it is also very difficult and tests many things, but I think you can win the competition if you get more school badges. , it’s a bit”

Fleur jumped up before she finished speaking, and Triana beside her did the same. The two of them looked at the direction of the whistling sound coldly until the pursuit group led by Malfoy landed.

Seeing that it was Fleur and Triana, Draco's face clearly showed disappointment.

"Were you two just shown on the map?"

Although she was defeated by them, Furong's expression remained arrogant.

"Are you planning to return the school badge to us?"

The Slytherin group sneered slightly, looking at the two Beauxbatons girls with playful eyes that teased prey. Pansy moved her wand-holding wrist, grinned at Fleur with a cheerful smile,

"You seem unconvinced?"

"You stole the school badge from us by relying on sneak attacks and large numbers of people."

Triana said coldly,

"Why should I be convinced?"

"Oh, if that's the case, I can give you another chance--"

Not only was Pansy not angry, but she was even more excited. She handed her broomstick to Astoria next to her, but Astoria just looked at Pansy calmly and did not hold the broom for her.

Malfoy, who was thinking about why there were only three light spots left on the map, glared at Pansy dissatisfied.

"Don't forget Professor Blaine's rules, Pansy. We can't attack a team without a school badge."

After hearing this, Furong immediately raised her eyebrows.

And Malfoy also knew that the two Beauxbatons people heard what he said, but he didn't pay much attention. He just glanced sideways at Fleur, then stepped on his broomstick,

"Let's go--"

Malfoy turned to the Slytherin group and said with a twisted smile on his face,

"Let's go find the next one. I think I smell Potter."

So, several people from Slytherin got on their broomsticks and prepared to search again.

There were branches growing everywhere in the forest. Fleur looked coldly at the Slytherins who carefully avoided the branches and floated slowly in the air. Suddenly, a ray of light flashed across her blue eyes.

"Fall to the ground!"

The next second, Fleur raised her wand high, and her clear voice resounded through the forest! (End of chapter)
