Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

"Well, why isn't there anyone like that at Hogwarts?" Ron groaned, pretending he didn't hear Hermione, he didn't want to quarrel with her now.

"Hogwarts girls aren't bad either," Harry said without hesitation. The place where Qiu Zhang was sitting happened to be a few seats away from the girl with silver hair. He was very fond of this girl from the East.

"By the way, will you participate in the Triwizard Tournament?" Looking back at Slytherin's long table, Fleur asked again, with a little anticipation in her tone.

"Maybe, my father wants me to participate, but I don't care."

"I really hope we can become competitors." Fleur smiled and looked at Malfoy with her hands on her cheeks and said "friendly".

"In this way, I can "revenge" you in an open and fair manner." She continued to smile, and the onlookers had no idea that Furong's smiling face would say such aggressive words.

The boys were still wondering how Malfoy had managed to attract Beauxbatons' prettiest schoolgirl on the first meeting.

At least they thought it was the first time.

"It's an honor, and I'm looking forward to it." Malfoy could only respond with grace.

Dumbledore stood up again when the golden plates were being scrubbed again. A feeling of excitement and tension seemed to pervade the auditorium.

"The time has finally come," said Dumbledore, smiling at the sullen faces. "The Triwizard Tournament is about to begin. I'd like to explain a few words before I bring the box in—"

"—I'm going to explain our program of activities for this school year. But first, allow me to introduce two guests, as there are still people who don't know them, this is Mr. Barty Crouch, Director of International Cooperation at the Ministry of Magic," ——There was sparse applause in the auditorium——“This is Mr. Ludo Bagman, Director of the Sports Department of the Ministry of Magic.”

The applause was much louder for Bagman than for Mr. Crouch, perhaps because of his lesser fame as a hitter, or perhaps just because he looked so much kinder.

Ludo nodded in greeting, his eyes seemed to be searching for something, and then he finally saw Malfoy's face, showing a rather kind smile, even ingratiating.

If anyone could read the expression on his face, they would be surprised why Ludo, in a high-ranking position, would try to please a student at school.

"Over the past few months, Mr. Bagman and Mr. Crouch have worked tirelessly to arrange the Triwizard Tournament," Dumbledore continued, "and they will join me, Professor Karkaroff and Mark Mrs Sim, together, formed a jury to judge the efforts of the Warriors."

As soon as they heard the word "warrior", the students seemed to be more attentive. Dumbledore also seemed to notice their sudden silence, and saw him smile slightly, and said, "Mr. Filch, please bring the box up."

No one noticed that Filch had been lurking in a corner of the Great Hall just now, and now he was walking towards Dumbledore, holding a large wooden box inlaid with jewels that looked very old. The students watched in trance and discussed with great interest.

"Is this the gatekeeper of such a school, then you are really a bit pitiful, you have to face this dry face every day." Fleur commented on Filch, obviously there is no such appearance in Beauxbatons. Watchmen.

"The specifics of this year's Warriors game have been carefully scrutinized by Mr. Crouch and Mr. Bagman," Dumbledore said, as Filch carefully placed the box on the table in front of him. "They There are also many necessary arrangements for each project. There are three projects in total, which are carried out at different times throughout the school year, and they will test the warriors in many different ways...they will test their talents in magic - their courage and Their ability to reason—and, of course, their ability to overcome danger."

Hearing the last sentence, the auditorium became silent,

Everyone seemed to stop breathing.

"As you already know, there will be three warriors competing," Dumbledore continued calmly, "representing one participating school. We will rate them according to the quality of each event they complete, and when the three events are over, The Warriors with the most points will win the Trifecta. The Warriors are selected by a fair picker, and it's the Goblet of Fire."

Having said this, Dumbledore drew his wand and tapped three times on the lid of the box. The lid creaked open slowly. Dumbledore reached in and pulled out a large, rough-hewn wooden goblet. The cup itself was inconspicuous, but it was full of bluish-white flames throbbing inside.

Dumbledore closed the box and placed the cup on the lid so that everyone in the auditorium could see it clearly.

"Every student who wants to be a warrior must write his name and school name on a piece of parchment and throw it into this goblet," Dumbledore said. Sign up within four hours. Tomorrow night, Halloween night, the Goblet will choose the names of three students it thinks best represent the three schools. Tonight, the Goblet will be in the foyer for anyone willing to participate The students who are campaigning can have access to it.”

"Earlier, I have discussed with Mrs. Maxim and Mr. Karkaroff, for the younger students who are younger than seventeen but strong enough to set an age-based limit. Magic is unrealistic and unfair. This magic is meaningless to capable students. They can show breakthroughs in abilities that do not match their age. In fact, the Goblet of Fire also has a strong screening ability to select the most powerful students. Warriors who fit the bill."

"However, if we don't impose any restrictions, maybe all of our Hogwarts students will try to throw notes into the Goblet of Fire, which is unfair to the two schools at Hogwarts who have traveled thousands of miles." Bridor blinked his azure blue eyes and smiled.

"So after negotiation, we came up with this solution - students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang can put a note with their name in it if they want, and I believe the two principals bring They are all the elites in their school, and the students of our school need to break through a barrier that I personally set, regardless of age, that is to say, the original decision has been overturned, the age limit has been abolished, and now Hogg All Watts students who can break through the magic I set are eligible to accept the Goblet of Fire's choice."

Mrs. Maxim and Karkaroff on the side nodded in approval.

Then there was mourning at the table where some of the upperclassmen of Hogwarts had gathered.

"Then if we can't even break through Professor Dumbledore's magic, are we not as good as those low-grade kiddos? This is really humiliating." Some high-grade students wailed, and at the same time made up their minds, even if If you really want to try it yourself, you have to pick a time when no one else is there to try it secretly.
