Chapter 822 Athena's Status in Greece

Outside the Magic Sports Administration,

the agent was asking the boy questions with concern.

"Victor, what happened to you just now?"

"Nothing, I just thought the girl passing by was very beautiful, so I looked at her a little more."

The agent patted his chest thankfully, "Fortunately you didn't say anything nonsense just now, otherwise it would be a big deal."

The boy was puzzled, "It shouldn't be like this, right?"

"Not so?" The agent looked around carefully, and after making sure there was no one around, he leaned close to him and whispered:

"You are Victor Krum, the seeker of our Bulgarian National Quidditch team, and even the man with the most hope of winning the title of the world's number one seeker in this tournament.

If your fans knew that you were interested in a girl from an unknown background, what do you think would happen then?"

Krum patted his shoulder with some disapproval, "Come on, I don't even know her name, how can I be interested in her?"

The agent twitched his mouth, "Victor, you looked like you saw a veela just now."

To be able to become a player of the national team at such a young age, in addition to talent, it naturally requires many times the effort of ordinary people.

It was reasonable to worry that he would be distracted, but seeing the Veela, the statement was a bit exaggerated.

Krum curled his lips, "If she is really a Veela, why are you not affected?"

The agent shook his robe lightly, "I am a man who has seen the world, how can I be so easily affected by her."

Krum rolled his eyes unhappily, "Don't worry about me, let's do this, I promise that I will not focus on anything other than the game before the World Cup is over."

The agent seemed to have something else to say, but Krum had already raised his hand and knocked on the door of the Magic Sports Administration.

After all, he is no longer a child, and it is time to let go.

...

...

Vincent and Hermione returned to the ground and walked into an empty alley.

After the black and white vortex, the two appeared in Athens, a city surrounded by the sea on three sides in Greece.

It is still early now, and you can have a good walk after lunch.

However, as soon as the two entered a small restaurant near the Roman market, the Aurors of the Greek Ministry of Magic came.

After all, without a pass, it is reasonable to accept the investigation.

Vincent handed them Minister Astrid's reply and told them his identity.

"Hello, I am Vincent Wayne, the chairman of Wayne Enterprises."

The Aurors of the Greek Ministry of Magic had naturally heard of him, and left quietly after confirming that there was no problem with the reply.

After this short episode, Vincent and Hermione no longer had the idea of ​​walking around the city.

Even the Greek food on the table was not very tasty.

But Oblansk was obviously much better than Umbridge. At least he didn't look bad, his taste was normal, and he didn't speak with a pinched throat.

In this comparison, I magically didn't feel nauseous anymore.

The seafood and vegetable salad was colorful and had a very rich taste.

The grilled eggplant was also delicious, and the softness of the eggplant and the aroma of the grilled meat were particularly well combined.

The Greek grilled lamb chops were tender and juicy, and the combination of spices and olive oil was very unique.

With the help of delicious food, Vincent and Hermione's good mood was completely back.

When the two walked out of the restaurant, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Although it was a pity that I couldn't go to the city for a good walk, the entrance to the Greek Ministry of Magic made up for this regret.

On the hill of Acropolis in the center of Athens, there stands a comprehensive ancient building complex, the Acropolis of Athens.

It was built in 580 BC. It was originally a fortress to prevent foreign invasions, and later slowly developed into a hill city guarded by solid walls.

This magnificent Acropolis also has the four greatest masterpieces of Greek classical art - the Parthenon, the Portico, the Erechtheion and the Temple of Athena Victory.

They interpret the prosperity of Greece for more than a thousand years, the rise of civilization, mythology and religion, and are regarded as symbols of the concept of world heritage.

The entrance to the Greek Ministry of Magic is at the highest point of the Acropolis, inside the Parthenon, which is called the "temple in the temple".

In any place in the city of Athens, people can see this temple built to commemorate the goddess Athena who protects the city.

The temple, built of white marble from Mount Pentelicus, has many sculptures on both sides. The east side depicts the birth of Athena, and the west side depicts the fight between Athena and Poseidon for the protection of Athens.

In principle, the temple is not open to the public.

However, Vincent and Hermione are wizards. After repeated confirmation by the Greek Ministry of Magic employees disguised as security guards, the two were finally able to enter the temple smoothly.

The afternoon sun shines into the temple through the colonnade. At the end of the breathtaking light and shadow, there stands a 12-meter-high full-length statue of Athena made of ivory and gold.

In the eyes of Greek Muggles, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, war and art in mythology, and is also one of the twelve main gods of Olympus.

But in the eyes of Greek wizards, Athena is not just a purely fictional existence.

Like Merlin's status in Britain, Athena has been a symbol of magic from ancient times to the present.

Some wizard scholars who study ultra-ancient history even believe that she was one of the first humans to come into contact with magic and one of the ancestors of wizards.

Muggles who cannot understand magic may regard her as a god because of this. As for the truth, I am afraid it is a mystery that will never be solved.

When Vincent and Hermione approached the statue, the floor in front of it was opened piece by piece from the inside, revealing a deep corridor leading to the Greek Ministry of Magic.

Under the light of the flickering torches on the wall, the beautifully carved marble steps can be clearly seen.

Like most magical governments, the corridors lead underground.

The huge relief at the end automatically opened slowly in front of the two people, and the temple-like rotunda was particularly majestic.

The only feeling the Greek Ministry of Magic gave the two of them was "shocked".

The rotunda is erected with 96 huge and beautifully carved columns. Their layout is carefully designed to support a palace that seems to reach straight to the ground.

Busy Ministry of Magic staff were walking around. Some of them were holding thick documents in their hands, some were holding bottles and cans, and some were actually wearing a set of thick armor.

Vincent and Hermione found a staff member who was not too busy. After explaining their purpose, they walked into the splendid palace under her leadership.

The space inside the palace is very large, and the reliefs on the walls are similar to the facade of the Parthenon on the ground, and they are all about Athena's deeds.

For example, she led the centaurs to fight against a group of giant magical creatures, or she soared in the sky riding a fire dragon.

The office of the Minister of Magic of Greece was on the top floor of the palace. The two declined the staff's offer to ride on the floating platform and admired the magnificent palace while walking.

Such a strong sense of history and art is rare in the wizarding world, let alone the Muggle world.
