Hogwarts Kryptonian

"On behalf of the Ministry of Magic, I would like to welcome everyone to the 442nd Quidditch World Cup. The game is between Ireland and Bulgaria! The game starts now!"

After using a "loud voice", Ludo Bagman, whose voice resounded throughout the stadium of 100,000 people, flicked the wand in his hand, and a golden snitch flew into the stadium. The final of the Quidditch World Cup was officially here we go.

The entire stadium suddenly became excited.

However, this does not seem to include the group of "top figures" sitting in the minister's box. And among them, some people are even more serious.

After chatting with Lu Yunkai for a few words about Voldemort, Lucius seemed to have completely lost interest in the game. With a dark face, he seemed to be thinking about something, although his eyes were still looking at the two sides fighting fiercely in the field.

Draco, who was sitting on the other side of him, was completely immersed in the game, with an excited expression on his face.

As for Lu Yunkai...it's boring. Although the Irish team was riding the latest model of Firebolt broomsticks, the excellent start-stop performance made Lu Yunkai even have the idea of ​​buying one himself, but he really couldn't get into the game.

He really couldn't understand those complicated coordination and tactics.

In addition, he and Daphne had originally agreed to go see her father together, so they were not prepared to come to the game from the beginning. Daphne did not get a ticket for today and did not come at all, which made Lu Yunkai feel that if she watched I had so much fun watching the game that I felt a little sorry for her...

So he focused on something else.

In order to make himself look like he didn't know anything, and then be shown off by Draco who always liked to show off, Lu Yunkai still did some homework.

The first Quidditch World Cup was held in 1473, and it was held every four years after that. Lu Yunkai calculated it several times in his mind, but he couldn't figure out how this year would be the 442nd.

Then he became completely entangled in this problem and couldn't extricate himself.

So much so that he didn't even notice that the owner of the house elf who claimed to be occupying the seat had not shown up until this moment.

…

"Today's game was really exciting!! The performance of the Irish team was simply great! Sure enough, defense is the key to the team's victory!" Malfoy shouted excitedly, "Those barbarians in Bulgaria! Go to hell!! "

"……Um."

Lu Yunkai smiled and clapped.

Most people in the entire box were clapping their hands.

The game started and ended in one afternoon. The legendary match between Goyle and Crabbe that lasted for several months thankfully did not occur in the Quidditch World Cup final.

This is all thanks to Viktor Krum, the Bulgarian team's Seeker who Malfoy complained was a barbarian. He, who must not have been twenty years old this year, successfully caught the Golden Snitch before the Irish team's Seeker.

However, his teammates are really stretched. In his pursuit of the Golden Snitch, a superb performance from Ireland's batsmen and chasers had put them too far ahead of Bulgaria.

It was a victory for the defense and the team, but Crum was the hero of the game.

Indeed, as Malfoy said, this was a very exciting game, but because there were no teams from the British Isles participating (the three British teams had already lost miserably in the qualifying stage), so the audience in the box No one was so excited.

As the game ended, the award ceremony was about to begin, but Lu Yunkai had no interest in this, so he wanted to leave first.

"Are you not in a hurry? The award ceremony will be held here soon! We can also congratulate the Irish team up close." Malfoy couldn't understand why Lu Yunkai was in such a hurry to leave at this time.

"When the award ceremony is over, there will probably be a sea of ​​people outside. I'd better not join in the fun." Lu Yun laughed. "Otherwise, I'll leave soon. God knows if I can still find Old Eli and the others..."

"Don't worry! Use our portkey to go to my house later, and then you can use Floo powder to go back." Malfoy insisted, "Do you want to stay in a tent for one night like those people? Tomorrow morning Go back again?”

"You're here, it would be nice to have some wine or something..." Lu Yunkai muttered, "Aren't Goyle and Crabbe here too? They're going back tonight too?"

He also thought that after meeting old Eli and the others later, he would go look for them and see if he could meet Ron and Harry!

"We are all going back tonight." Lucius interjected from the side and nodded, "There are too many people in this place, and it is not safe to stay for a long time. "

"What's so unsafe? There are so many people from the Ministry of Magic..." Lu Yunkai muttered.

He looked to the side.

Startled.

That house elf is still there!

Strange! You claim to be helping your master occupy a seat for the entire game. Now that the game is over, your master hasn’t come yet, and you’re still occupying it...

Are you taking a seat for yourself?

Um, that’s not right either! If you're taking a seat for yourself, why do you have to stand next to it for the whole game? It's not like there's anyone in the seat...

Wait a moment! !

Lu Yunkai's eyelids suddenly jumped, and then he lowered his voice.

"Mr. Malfoy, who owns the seat next to me? Why has no one sat in it during the whole game?"

"...It seems to belong to Director Barty Crouch of the Department of International Cooperation?" Lucius was first stunned by Lu Yunkai's question, and then glanced at the house elf standing there, "He's always very busy, maybe What’s going on today, can’t you come to the game?”

"Oh..." Lu Yunkai glanced at the empty seats again and fell silent.

If he couldn't come because he was busy, the house elf should have left by now, right? After all, the game is over. I wonder if that seat is empty? At this moment, Lu Yunkai had such a thought flashing through his mind.

Invisibility cloak?

Since it was Barty Crouch's house elf, could the person sitting on it be...his son? ? Damn it! If he had known there was someone in the seat next to him, he shouldn't have said what he just said to Lucius! !

Why didn't I realize it earlier?

Well, that doesn't seem right. If this seat hadn't been empty until the end of the game, Lu Yunkai wouldn't have dared to think that there might be a person wearing an invisibility cloak sitting on it, right?

…

The awards ceremony after the game went quickly. The losing Bulgarian team did not have too many regrets. Krum won the best player award. As for Ireland, which won the championship, it was no problem. They happily took the trophy and started celebrating.

The winning Irish players didn't even leave the minister's box before Lucius stood up.

"Let's go." Lucius said to Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai glanced at the Irish players who were still flying around the field, feeling a little confused.

No, you said you wanted to watch the award ceremony. Now the awards are over, but the ceremony is not over yet! Why should we wait until the players leave the field and the audience begins to leave before talking about the end?

This is just to see them leave after receiving the award... Well, actually, this time is not much different from when I was about to leave, so there shouldn't be any congestion or other problems.

So he simply stood up with Malfoy and his son, walked out of the minister's box, walked along the special passage, and walked out of the stadium.

As he walked, Lu Yunkai kept an eye on the house elf who was standing there in a daze until he rounded a corner and was out of sight.

"I really don't understand why portkeys are not even allowed in the minister's box. Can we arrange a Floo network?"

Draco took a few steps, seemed to have recovered from the excitement of the game just now, and started to complain.

"Transformation magic is not allowed in the entire stadium, and the Ministry of Magic doesn't want this box to look too special. You can't walk very far, and you won't be exhausted." Lucius scolded Draco with a straight face. One sentence.

"...Even if you don't want to be special, you are still special. Is there any use in pretending like this?" Draco continued to complain in a low voice.

But the confidence is indeed not as strong as before.

Lu Yun, who was following him, laughed. Although he always thought Draco's idea of ​​being the best in the world was childish, but this time, he really thought Malfoy's statement was okay.

The passage from the minister's box to the outside of the stadium was not long, so it didn't take long for the three of them to reach the area outside the stadium where they could use the door keys.

"You go back first." Lucius took out the door key and handed it to Draco.

"...Do you have anything else?"

"Some things have nothing to do with you." Lucius shook his head and then glanced at Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai was stunned.

What do you want me to do? It has nothing to do with Draco, does it still have something to do with me?

Lu Yunkai secretly cursed in his heart, but he still took the door key with Draco and returned to Malfoy Manor together. After greeting Mrs. Malfoy who didn't go to the game for some unknown reason (Lu Yunkai guessed it was to give him a seat), Lu Yunkai went home through the fireplace.

"Why did you come back today?"

"Hmm. What are you doing?"

"Xueli's cooking is really terrible, so I just thought that since you're not at home these two days, I just brought my house elf over to teach it how to cook." Daphne smiled at Lu Yun naturally. She waved and motioned for him to sit down on the chair next to her, "And I don't want to stay at home. Astoria's friends come to play with her, and the whole house is noisy and gives me a headache."

"Actually, it's nothing! That girl Astoria has always been quite shy, so don't nag her if she has a good friend to play with."

"I know! So I didn't say anything! I just avoided it. You don't need to feel bad for my sister!" Daphne rolled her eyes at Lu Yunkai, then picked up the black teapot at hand and poured a cup for Lu Yunkai, "Let's have dinner. ?"

"No, the stadium doesn't care about food, and neither does the Malfoy family." Lu Yun laughed and complained, "Draco's father was so chatty that he didn't know what he was doing, and his mother was also a little absent-minded, so she didn't leave me to eat. ”

"Oh, then I'll let Xueli do it for you now, so you can test its learning results this afternoon?"

"Okay." Lu Yun smiled and nodded, "By the way, today I saw a seller selling transforming Golden Snitch toys outside the Quidditch pitch, so I bought a pair and gave one to you."

While talking, Lu Yunkai took out two golden balls from his pocket and handed one to Daphne.

"Oh? How does this thing work?"

"Actually, it's similar to my communication mirror. It turns into a person holding another golden ball, and then talks to you in the same way he talks... But I think it can fly with you, so I don't have to use it. It’s easier to hold a mirror in your hand, so I bought two.”

"...This is worse than a mirror!"

After taking the golden snitch, Daphne complained speechlessly as she watched it turn into a little golden man that was very similar to Lu Yunkai, with a pair of dragonfly-like wings.

"Before, didn't you always say that the mirror I studied had to be held with my hands, and that it would hit my face if I fell asleep while chatting at night? It won't happen this time."

"...Okay. But I still like to use a mirror." Daphne put away the flying Golden Snitch, turned it into a small ball, and then put it in her pocket, "I'll let Xue Li do it for you. Let’s eat, and then you’ll talk to me about the game later?”

"There's nothing interesting to talk about during the game, but there are some interesting people outside the stadium. I'll tell you about them later!"

"Yeah! Okay!"
