Hogwarts Wizarding Journey

Chapter 8 Christmas Banquet

Time soon came to Christmas.

In order to celebrate Belle's freedom, his father William decided to hold a grand Christmas banquet in the castle. The patriarchs of major pure-blood families, senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, well-known wizards, etc. were all invited.

Since the morning, the house elves have been busy preparing for the banquet.

The hall, which was already clean, was cleaned thoroughly again. Brand-new dining tables and tableware were taken out, and various luxurious-looking decorations were placed in the hall.

Bell and Shanna were also forced to put on formal dresses. To be honest, Bell didn't want to wear such clothes at all, as they always felt restrictive and inconvenient.

Amidst the busy preparations (Bell felt that he was doing all the work in vain), the time soon arrived in the afternoon, and the invited guests arrived at Bell's house one after another.

Seeing that the time was almost up, William took Bell to the high platform at the front of the hall, gave a brief speech, introduced Bell to everyone, and then announced the official start of the banquet.

At the banquet, Bell was first pulled by his father William to greet various so-called big shots.

After a round of business exchanges and a round of praise, Bell finally got rid of the troublesome adults and ran to find his sister Shanna.

Shanna was with her mother Elena. Then Bell came out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den again. Elena pulled her to greet the women of various so-called big shots...

(╯#-盘-)╯~~╧═╧

‘It’s not over yet!’

Bell had a smile on his face and MMP in his heart.

Finally, Bell was liberated. He hugged his sister and ran into the little wizard's circle.

Because the banquet was nominally a make-up party for Bell's 5th birthday (outsiders did not know Bell's details), many families with children of similar ages also brought their children to the party.

"Sanna, did you enjoy the party?" Bell asked, hugging his sister.

The little girl's face was flushed and she looked very excited.

(*ω\*)

Shanna covered her face and said nothing.

"?" Bell scratched his head, "Why don't you speak? Shanna."

Shanna turned around and threw herself into Bell's arms, still saying nothing.

'Well, it's probably the first time I've seen so many people, so this kid is shy. No wonder he's been quiet since just now.'

Bell shrugged and sat quietly listening to the bragging of the group of young wizards in front of him.

A little wizard is showing off the Christmas gift he received this morning.

"When I got up this morning, I couldn't find my clothes. They were all buried by gifts. It took a lot of effort for me to get out of the room. It wasn't until lunch that I put my clothes on

The gifts were all opened. Guess what I found inside? A complete set of chocolate frog pictures!"

(ˉ▽ ̄~)Cut~~

A young wizard expressed his disdain.

"I have already collected all the pictures."

"Hmph! Don't think I don't know. You asked your father to buy you a lot of chocolate frogs. After taking out the pictures inside, you threw the chocolates to the house elves to eat. The pictures you collect like this have no soul!" Show off!

said the little wizard of the gift.

"You, how did you know!?"

"I heard what my dad said. He said it was your dad who complained to him."

Looking at the little wizard with a flushed face, Bell couldn't help but mourn for his father and hoped that his father could have a good sleep tonight.

Another little wizard said that he had been skiing in the Alps a few days ago and met two snow monsters on the snow mountain.

"They are 10 feet tall, covered with white fur, and have tusks that long."

The little wizard talked and gestured.

"Fortunately, I secretly took away my father's wand. I yelled and took out the wand..."

Since the description is too long, let me briefly summarize it. After an American blockbuster-style battle, the little wizard finally succeeded in fighting off the snow monster.

"Next summer I want my mother to take me to the beach in Venice for vacation. I heard that there are often water monsters there. I haven't beaten the water monster yet. When I defeat the water monster and prove myself, I will

Write a letter to Professor Dumbledore and ask him to allow me to enter Hogwarts early."

Another little wizard said: 'Fighting is what barbarians do, real men all play Quidditch!'

"Let me tell you, my flying skills are terrible. It has never taken more than 5 minutes to catch the Golden Snitch. A few days ago, I suddenly felt that catching the Golden Snitch was too unchallenging, so I decided to go up to the sky and catch an eagle.

"

"So did you catch it?"

"It was just a little bit close," the boy said with regret. "At that time, my hand had already touched the tail feathers of the eagle, and suddenly a Muggle plane flew over. In order not to knock it down, I had no choice but to

The earth let the eagle go."

"But guess who was on that plane?" The boy whispered with a mysterious face, "It's the coach of the Scottish Quidditch national team! After he saw my outstanding flying skills, he jumped out of the plane excitedly.

Want to invite me to join the Scotland national team!"

"How could the coach of the Scottish Quidditch national team fly?" Another little wizard looked incredulous, "He must be riding a broom when he goes out."

The boy quit, and he was so angry that he looked like if you don't believe it, I'll beat you until you believe it. So didn't he just say, 'Fighting is what barbarians do'?

'Fight! Fight!'

It's not a big deal for Bell to watch the fun.

However, things did not go as Bell expected. After another little wizard measured the physiques of both parties, he asked weakly: "So have you joined the Scottish national team?"

"No." The boy said regretfully, "I told him that I am an Englishman and cannot join the Scottish national team."

"..."

Bell listened with great interest. As expected of a wizard, even though he was still young, his level of bragging and tricks were not comparable to that of a Muggle child.

After a long time, someone finally noticed the cheerful Bell holding a little girl beside him.

"Hey, what's your name? What are you good at?"

Bell thought about it carefully and realized that the only thing he could be said to be good at was reading... A group of young wizards gave a disdainful "cut", and then they all went to brag again.

Bell was happy and quiet. After bringing a bunch of food for himself and Shanna, he started eating and drinking while teasing Shanna. Occasionally, he would share some of his food with other little wizards, or join in the fun.

Here's the little wizard bragging.

Although I don't even remember their names, I can be considered familiar with these little wizards.

Bell also got to know several young wizards who appeared in the book, such as Draco Malfoy, Hannah Abbott, Pansy Parkinson, etc. He would not judge the people in front of him based on the impressions of his previous life.

.At least for now, these little ladies and little lolita are quite cute. Of course, if they are compared with their own sisters, they will be hundreds of millions of points behind.

At around 9 o'clock in the evening, the banquet finally ended.

As the crowd dispersed, the castle of the Menethil family returned to its previous calm. After the last guest left, William found Bell.

"Bell, are you sleepy? If you're not, I want to talk to you. Can you come to the small restaurant?"

‘You’ve said so, can I still say that I’m sleepy?’ Bell, who was already wanting to sleep, thought helplessly.

"Okay dad, I'll come find you after I send Shanna back to her room."

Shanna had already fallen asleep with a smile in Bell's arms. It was the first time for the little girl to experience such a big battle. She was very excited tonight, so she got tired very quickly. In addition, it was getting late now,

Even the noisy noise at the banquet could not affect the little girl's dream.
