The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

The Delacour sisters hugged each other for a long time and wept.

Link and his party were by the side, waiting silently with complicated emotions.

The Beauxbaton sisters, who were once the favored children of heaven and whose scenery is so radiant like a bright moon, have ended up in this fate.

This is really embarrassing.

It wasn't until the sisters' emotions eased a little that Link sighed and said:

"Your sister has been telling us that you have a high status in Beauxbatons, and you have even become the group with the highest status in the grade, so we always think you are doing well.

But now it seems that it is not good, right? "

Gabriel struggled to get out of Furong's arms, rubbed her red eyes and said forcefully:

"Who says I'm not doing well? Principal Maxim values ​​me very much, and my credits are also very high, which can be said to be the highest in the whole grade! My sister should have told you that credits in Beauxbaton mean what?"

imply immediate status.

Link nodded, but still said:

"Then why did something like this happen today? Judging from that Laura's attitude, they don't seem to like you very much."

Gabriel said weakly:

"That's because Senior Laura is a senior senior, and she's about to enter seventh grade this year. As for the fact that everyone doesn't like me, it's true. But there's nothing I can do about it, who..."

Gabriel stopped talking, but intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Fleur.

This look made Fu Rong lower her head in pain.

It was obvious that her reputation as a Beauxbaton warrior affected Gabriel.

The whole of Beauxbaton's malice against her did not end with her graduation, but was transferred to her sister.

How cruel is this?

Fu Rong couldn't help crying again.

But Emily, who had been silent all this time, stood up at this time, looked down at Gabriel and said lightly:

"Just now, you called that Laura Senior Laura? Why are you so polite. Did they warn you in other ways?"

Hearing that Fu Rong, who was crying just now, was suddenly stuck again, looking at Gabriel with a look of horror.

Emily's words reminded her.

School bullying has never been a rare case.

Even magic schools are the same.

The group of people who hated her might not dare to do anything to her due to their strength and status, so they could only say a few words and add cold violence.

But facing the weak Gabriel is different.

Under the eyes of everyone, Gabrielle slowly lowered her head again, and said in an inaudible voice:

"She...their grades are high..."

All the people present are smart people.

Such an answer would suffice.

Beauxbaton implemented not only the credit-only system, but also the grade system.

This is somewhat similar to the prefect system at Hogwarts.

That is to say, the prefects theoretically have the power to manage the students of the entire school, but at the same time they are also restricted by the prefects who are higher than them.

Such a system will give birth to another kind of 'grade suppression'.

That is to say, the prefects of the lower grades will gradually lose control over the ordinary students of the higher grades.

Because the senior students don't buy their account at all, this group of senior students is only willing to obey the orders of the prefects of their grade and the prefects of higher grades.

The exercise of power in the entire prefect system is compatible with subordinates, but incompatible with superiors.

But in Beauxbatons, this kind of 'grade suppression' has become even more extreme.

Because Beauxbaton's concept of seniority and inferiority has been deeply rooted in his bones.

This is a school where all students have to stand up and say hello when they see the principal!

Gabriel, obviously was 'suppressed by grade'.

Even though she has done very well in this grade, she has even reached the top level of 'prefect'.

But she's also only in second grade.

There are too many people who can bully her and want to bully her.

This is the 'inheritance' left to her by her sister.

So Gabriel is having a really bad time.

Looking at it this way, it is very easy to understand Gabriel's resentment towards Fleur.

After all, being in this environment for a long time will inevitably produce some symptoms similar to Stockholm syndrome.

For example, instead of hating the perpetrator, I blame myself and Furong for all the injustice and pain I have suffered.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Gabriel has more extreme thoughts, which have not been revealed.

Sighing, Link smiled and said:

"Gabriel, in fact, in my opinion, the environment of the entire French magic world has undergone tremendous changes. It is no longer suitable for a little wizard like you. So, are you willing to transfer? Famenee is still Hogwarts in the country. As long as you want, I can let you successfully enter the school as a transfer student in the next semester. I believe that you will like these two places. The environment there , it’s much better than here.”

After saying that, Link smiled at Fleur.

This was the last effort he could make for Furong's sake.

If Gabriel was reasonably cooperative, he didn't mind using softer means to take her away.

Although this will be more troublesome.

Furong also knew that Link's move was not easy, and cast a grateful look at Link.

But when Gabriel heard this, her complexion suddenly turned cold.

"I will not leave Beauxbatons!"

Gabriel said firmly, "Beaucebaton is my home! Principal Maxim is also my elder! I want to stay here and prove to everyone that the daughter of the Delacour family is not all trash ! What I lost, I will get it all back one day! Rely on my own strength!"

That's the end of the game.

Gabriel has become paranoid to a point where she cannot be persuaded by words alone.

Link shook his head at Furong, his brows and eyes full of helplessness.

As for Furong, she was already sobbing.

Gabriel's pain and paranoia are largely due to her.

Seeing this, Gabriel looked a little strangely away from Link, and said quite vigilantly:

"Why do you ask me such a question? You shouldn't have any reason to spend so much energy participating in the matter of our sisters, right? Could it be that, just like what Senior Laura said, sister, you really became Mr. Washington's... ..."

"Ahem——"

Link coughed crazily and interrupted Gabriel, "Didn't you say you were going to take us to the auditorium for a banquet? Let's go."

While talking, Link took the lead and walked out.

Only Fleur, who was blushing, and Gabriel, whose eyes were full of suspicion, remained.

...

Due to being delayed for too long by Laura and the others, when Link and the others arrived at the Beauxbaton Auditorium, the banquet had already begun.

The Beauxbaton Auditorium at night looks more magnificent than it does during the day.

When the magic lights in the auditorium are fully turned on, the entire auditorium is covered with a layer of dense light, like an illusion.

Beauxbaton's emphasis on etiquette was fully revealed in this dinner.

The seat layout they adopted is not divided equally by colleges like Hogwarts, but is deliberately divided into several different sections according to age, status, credit status, etc., and the decoration and seat size level in each section Also completely different.

One of the most intuitive standards is .

The lower the dining area, the dimmer the light.

Among them, the top one is naturally the chair where the professors are.

They are almost at the top of the entire auditorium.

A group of professors at the banquet looked extremely majestic against the background of stained glass behind them.

As Beauxbaton's honored guests, Link and the others were placed in some scattered small seats a little below the professors.

Thanks to Link and the others, Gabriel was not forced to sit back in the slightly dark and crude student seats at the bottom, but sat among Link and the others.

As members of the mysterious "Washington Family", the arrival of Link and his party has attracted the attention of many people.

Especially other noble guests who belong to the guest seating area like Link and others.

The attitude of these people towards Link and others can almost be described as eagerly waiting.

Even before Link and the others actually took their seats, they all raised their wine glasses in respect.

It's a pity that Link didn't bother to talk to them at all.

His full attention was directed towards the higher faculty seats.

To be more precise, it was actually Maxim and Professor Lilo beside her.

Compared with the last time we met, Ms. Maxim looked more solemn and older.

Like most of the professors and guests present, they all put on exclusive dresses.

After sitting in the center of the main seat, the huge body and serious face immediately set off the smallness of the rest of the people.

However, when his majestic expression swept across Link's and others' Fu Rong, there was a rare touch of emotion.

From a distance, Link saw Maxim getting up slightly, as if he wanted to come this way.

It's a pity that Professor Lilo, who was sitting next to her, only whispered to her for a while, and then let her sit down again.

Then, Maxim began to welcome the guests.

This makes Fu Rong extremely disappointed.

Although she had had a tense fight with Ms. Maxim before, she still hoped to have more exchanges with Maxim.

Dumbledore and Link's eyes also moved slightly.

They had no interest in Maxim's stylized speeches. Dumbledore completely ignored Maxim on the stage, turned his head and said to Link:

"It seems that these guys have a deeper control over Beauxbaton than we expected."

"Yeah, by the look of it, Ms. Maxim has almost become their puppet." Link said lightly, "But that's okay, anyway, everything will be changed after tonight."

Dumbledore didn't speak, but just looked at Link deeply.

Although he promised to assist Link in carrying out the hunting plan for the shadow man.

But that doesn't mean he's just Link's point of view.

Freezing three feet does not happen in a day.

In his view, simply hunting down a shadow man would not change Beauxbaton's current situation at all.

The opposite of.

The hunting plan might make Beauxbaton's situation even worse.

In the secret communication between the two, Maxim's brief speech has come to an end.

Then, the originally empty table in front of everyone began to be gradually filled with steaming dishes.

"Well--"

Dumbledore said with a half-smile, "This way of serving food is somewhat familiar."

Link knew exactly what he wanted to say. Out of love for his old headmaster, Link also said along the way:

"Yeah, I really want to hear that this is how meals are served at Hogwarts."

Dumbledore turned his head and glanced at Link, his face was filled with a childish light.

Gabriel snorted coldly when she heard the words:

"Yes, this way of serving food is indeed the experience that we Beauxbatons got from Hogwarts, but we are better than Hogwarts in this respect!"

"Oh?" Dumbledore was a little unconvinced, and smiled, "What's so good about it?"

"You should know after a little understanding. Hogwarts' meals are served out of thin air through house elves. They realized that they arranged the kitchen under the auditorium, and then the house elves raised in the kitchen served the meals. .But this way is too primitive!"

Gabriel said triumphantly, "Our food serving system doesn't need any house elves. The reason why our food serving system is realized is the simple phantom specially designed for us by the president of the French Alchemy Association." Appearance spell system.

It is not an easy task to deploy such a system in a place like Beauxbatons that fully covers the anti-apparition spell!

Also, you didn't go to the Hogwarts dinner so you don't feel it.

The dishes we serve are all cooked by professional chefs from the French magic circle.

In terms of level, it is much better than Hogwarts! "

Dumbledore's lips pursed tightly again.

Because he really has no way to refute.

It is a bit of an exaggeration to call the country a gourmet desert.

But the local cuisine chefs in the country are really hip!

Even Hogwarts uses house elves who are very good at cooking.

But in that environment, the level is actually the same.

The food served at the Beauxbatons dinner was much better than that at Hogwarts in terms of appearance alone.

Frowning slightly, Dumbledore instinctively turned his gaze to Link next to him.

He also hoped that Link could help him say a few more words like he did just now.

Unexpectedly, Link and Emily had already picked up a knife and fork to launch a fierce attack on the dishes in front of them.

While eating, I stop from time to time to express my compliments on the dishes in front of me.

Dumbledore's expression changed instantly.

Staring at Link and Emily with the look of a traitor.

Link, however, was unmoved.

joke.

Now that the food is good, who has the time to help you, an old man, to be jealous.

Seeing that Link was eating happily, Fleur and Gabriel finally had smiles on their faces.

From time to time, he even pushed some dishes that he thought were good to Link and Emily for them to taste.

Link and Emily are also very cooperative.

Even if some dark dishes such as French snails are obviously not to their taste, they will still offer a piece of praise. The smiles on the faces of Gabriel and Furong become brighter and brighter, and the atmosphere of the whole banquet also changes. getting better and better.

"call--"

As the last empty plate in front of everyone was sent away, Link took off the napkin around his neck and let out a long breath.

"Mr. Washington, are you satisfied with your meal?"

A slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind Link.

Link turned his head to look, and saw that Maxim had arrived behind him at some point, looking at him with a smile.

And the so-called Professor Lilo was standing beside Maxim.

"Overall, I'm quite satisfied." Link raised his eyebrows, stood up and said, "French cuisine can be said to be the most delicious cuisine in the whole of Europe. Even in the whole world, there are only Authentic Chinese food is comparable to it.

Thank you very much for your hospitality, it was a great honor for me! "

"It's great that you are satisfied with this!" The smile on Maxim's face became more sincere, "Please rest assured. Although this is a banquet, except for the etiquette process of the banquet, in terms of dishes, we In fact, it was not done according to the highest banquet standard.

In other words, what you just enjoyed is actually just a daily meal at our Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

If the heir of your family can enroll in Beauxbatons one day in the future, what he can enjoy every day is the standard of food and beverages like today. "

"Really?" Link said with a little surprise, "If that's the case, I'm a little envious of that kid's future life."

Maxim laughed out loud when he heard this, looking very happy.

At this time, Emily on the side said coldly:

"Ms. Maxim, you mean that all the children here enjoy the same food?"

As she spoke, Emily glanced contemptuously at the student dining area in the darkest place below.

Maxim followed Emily's line of sight and glanced over there, and instantly said knowingly:

"Don't worry about this. Beauxbaton's daily diet is actually divided into levels. Specifically, it can be divided into daily and banquet levels. If students are not satisfied with the food standard in front of them, they can also apply for an upgrade to the banquet level. food.

Of course, this upgrade is conditional.

In order to perform this upgrade, a certain amount of credits must be achieved.

Or, submit a part of the sponsorship to Beauxbaton and become the honorary school director of Beauxbaton. "

"Money has never been a problem."

Emily breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as it allows my children to enjoy the best, that's enough.

Honestly, I'd only be bored if you guys actually made my kids eat the same thing as those lowlifes. "

Hearing this, the corner of Maxim's mouth twitched, and the smile on his face almost couldn't hold back.

Because she knew very well that if she completely followed the ideas of Mrs. Washington in front of her, she, Maxim, a giant hybrid, was also an inferior person.

Taking a deep breath, Maxim finally forced himself to laugh and said:

"This is natural. Please believe that Beauxbaton will never let you down. In addition, there will be a ball here later, please don't miss it. It is specially prepared for all the guests. of."

After saying that, Maxim saluted Link and the others, and left the auditorium together with Professor Lilo, who was always silent.

Link, on the other hand, silently watched the back of their departure.

There was an inexplicable smile on his face.
