The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

A wizard noble hidden in the dark side of the world.

This is actually a high-sounding, but rather general term.

It generally refers to those wizard noble families who are extremely low-key and not well-known, but powerful enough to influence the world and even secretly control the direction of the entire world.

Honestly, this is outrageous.

Almost entirely on the level of urban legends.

But like some Muggles who believe in Freemasons and Lizardmen, many wizards believe in it.

For a moment, the people in the entire small square became excited.

One by one looked at Link and Emily expectantly, and some wanted to strike up a conversation and get to know each other, but they didn't dare.

Link and Emily ignored all these gazes.

The two walked up to Gabriel with expressionless faces.

The powerful aura around Link and Emily and Gabriel's breathing became a lot heavier due to the special aura coming from the front.

It was almost impossible to maintain the original serious and dignified appearance.

Fortunately, Link restrained his sharp aura at this moment, showed a kind smile and said:

"Mademoiselle Gabrielle Delacour?"

"Yes, it is!"

Gabriel was excited, and suddenly stood up straight and responded.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing this, Emily covered her mouth with a hand wearing a white silk glove, and smiled softly.

This made Gabriel's face slightly flushed.

Link glanced at Emily, but did not stop Emily's behavior, but just stretched out his hand and said:

"Nice to meet you, Miss Delacour, I am Mike Washington, and this is my wife, Emily Washington."

"Nice to meet you! Mr. Washington, Mrs. Washington!"

Gabriel spoke nervously,

He reached out his hand and shook it with Lin Kexu, and then stretched out his hand towards Emily.

However, Emily is not as kind as Link.

Facing Gabriel's outstretched hand, Emily covered her mouth, showing disgust, and just nodded.

Gabriel was so embarrassed by such an arrogant gesture that she could only withdraw her hand, lowering her red face.

But Gabriel didn't feel too angry because of Emily's attitude.

In fact, she has experienced this kind of scene many times, and she has long been used to it.

Like Fleur, her Veela features are too obvious.

As a result, she often received all kinds of contempt and ridicule after Beauxbaton and the entire French magic community began to advocate pure blood supremacy.

To be honest, someone like Emily is considered polite.

Normal nobles would not even look at her, as if it would dirty their eyes.

There are very few people who treat her as politely as Link and even shake hands with her.

And this was also clear to Link after the initial investigation.

It is precisely because of this that Link makes Emily look so arrogant.

It made more sense and was easier for Emily to dress up.

After all, both Link and Dumbledore have master-level Occlumency and Legilimency chanting, and they can be said to be natural actors.

But Emily was different.

If the newly created character is too different from her original character, it will be easy to pretend to be fake.

"call--"

Taking a deep breath, Gabriel adjusted her emotions, raised her head and smiled again:

"Where is my sister?"

"Maybe I was a little too excited to see you. Furong sprained her foot accidentally when getting out of the car, so the treatment wasted some time." Link looked in the direction of the carriage, "But it should be getting better soon... oh And lo and behold, here she comes."

"Gabrielle! My Gabriel! How are you doing?"

Furong's surprised voice suddenly sounded.

Her movements were so swift and violent that Link only saw a silver-white afterimage, and then Fleur hugged Gabriel into her arms.

"Uh...I'm very...very good, please hurry...quickly release..."

Gabriel struggled in Furong's arms with a flushed face, and when she got behind, she seemed impatient and shouted angrily, "Put me down!"

Hum——

A muffled sound resounded from between the two.

Immediately afterwards, Fleur was bounced away by the magic power erupting from Gabrielle.

The power of this burst of magic power was controlled very delicately. While bouncing Furong away, it happened that it did not injure or knock down Furong.

But even though she didn't suffer any physical injuries, Furong's heart seemed to be shattered by that blow, and her face was full of disbelief and sadness.

But Gabriel had a lingering coldness on her face.

She quickly rearranged the messed up clothes on her body due to Furong's hug, and then put on a patterned smiling face again and said respectfully to Link and Emily:

"Sorry, I made you two laugh. But my sister, shouldn't you also introduce these two distinguished guests to me?"

When the two parties meet for the first time, a third party should give a more comprehensive and moderate introduction.

This is the rule in the circle of senior wizards in Europe.

It can well avoid the embarrassment caused by boasting.

So although Link had already reported his name to Gabriel before, and the recommendation letter given by Fleur to Gabriel also contained detailed information forged by Link, Emily and others.

But now Gabriel still asks Furong, the third-party recommender, to give another formal introduction.

After all, this is true etiquette.

Hearing this, Furong finally woke up.

She looked at Gabriel with a complicated expression for a while, and then said:

"Gabriel, these two are Mr. Mike Washington and his wife, Mrs. Emily Washington. The two of them are wizards from the United States. The Washington family they belong to is mainly engaged in business activities in the magical world of the United States. At the same time Some members of the family also work for the U.S. Ministry of Magic."

Both politics and business are blooming.

This is the path that most pure-blood wizard families will take.

Very ordinary, nothing to say.

Furong's introduction can almost be said to be nonsense.

But many other pure-blood noble wizards around who were paying attention to this place were shocked and excited when they heard this.

What made them react so strongly was the words "Magic World of the United States" and "Washington Family".

The first president of the Muggle regime in the United States was surnamed Washington.

This is common sense even for wizards who don't pay much attention to Muggle society.

Now, a Washington family whose base is in the magical world of the United States suddenly appeared.

Moreover, the two wizards of the Washington family in front of them also have such a noble and unique temperament.

It's hard not to let the wizards who are good at associating continue to speculate in the direction of the hermits who already have some guesses in their hearts.

Ever since, in the minds of many wizard nobles around.

The image of a terrifying wizard hermit who has controlled the entire Muggle regime in the United States for hundreds of years is just like that!

At the same time, their eyes on the main body of Beauxbaton Castle became even hotter.

If it can attract that kind of terrifying wizard hermit, then this Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic must be excellent!

"Of course, there are two other members of our trip." Fleur looked towards the direction of the carriage and continued, "Brian Washington and the butler of the Washington family, Mr. Skall."

After the words were finished, Dumbledore and old Kledre also got out of the carriage.

Among them, Dumbledore has also completed the transformation.

However, unlike Link and Emily, his transformation direction is to make himself younger—from the original big old man to a small old man with some black hair.

As for Old Kret, there is no need to transform at all.

After all, if clothing aside, humans can't really tell the difference between a house-elf and a house-elf.

That is to say, the special temperament and character of old Klein, which is different from other house elves, is a bit tricky.

But it's not a big problem, as long as he restrains himself a little.

"Mr. Brian Washington is the uncle of Mr. Mike Washington. He is here this time to accompany Mr. Mike Washington to visit the Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic for the younger generation of the family."

Fu Rong spoke slowly.

Link and Dumbledore also nodded in agreement.

It's just that Link looked at Dumbledore a little coldly.

After all, no one would be very happy to have an extra uncle out of thin air, not to mention that Dumbledore originally wanted to be his 'grandfather'.

But this scene has other meanings in the eyes of others.

This pair of uncles and nephews is definitely not compatible!

Maybe it's an internal fight over the family's inheritance rights!

This kind of struggle is not uncommon in large families!

Thinking of this, the big nobles on the side became excited.

Although their status is also very noble, but the nature of gossip still exists.

Gabriel didn't think so much.

She is also relatively simple.

In fact, Link felt that Gabriel might not even be aware of the deep hidden people in the character design they created.

Hearing that Gabriel just nodded, then frowned and asked:

"Choose offspring for the juniors in the family, so why didn't he himself come?"

Because this junior is not even an egg now!

Old Kelie complained in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help sweeping towards Emily's belly.

"Humph!"

Emily snorted coldly, "He doesn't have the right to choose, it's enough for us to choose for him!"

Gabriel frowned even tighter.

She doesn't like Emily very much, this person is too arrogant.

Especially now that Emily actually said something that she could make decisions for her children.

Although this makes sense in theory, it is also full of disrespect.

However, due to her status, she didn't say anything more, and greeted Link and his party towards the main body of Beauxbaton Castle without being humble or overbearing.

"The Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is divided into three parts." Gabriel introduced as she walked, "The first is the outer protective layer, which is composed of a variety of protective spells, which can effectively isolate Muggles and black people." The invasion of wizards. At the same time, it is also a place for students to go for outings during their holidays. Every spring and autumn, the professors will organize junior students to go to the Pyrenees for picnics. Senior students can move freely in the mountains During this period, the French Ministry of Magic will also send Aurors to carry out security work. This is not only to prevent outsiders from entering the mountains, but also to prevent some lively students from leaving their range of activities and encountering some dangers.

The second is most of the buildings on this small mountain island.

A large part of these buildings are all kinds of small workshops and commercial shops, similar in nature to Lion Heart Street, but on a smaller scale. There are also buildings that house the workers of these shops and workshops. These people are attached to Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic for a living, provide various business services to the students of the school, and live here at the same time. "

Link and Emily nodded when they heard this.

They understood.

The second part of the business circle that Gabriel mentioned is actually a variant of Hogsmeade Village.

The only difference between them is that Hogsmeade is a pure wizarding village independent of Hogwarts.

The business circle around Beauxbatons was even more straightforward.

Restricted by the tight defense circle around them, they moved directly here and merged with Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic.

"The third is the main body of Beauxbaton Castle where we are now."

Gabriel spread her hands and made a show, and then the huge wooden door in front of everyone slowly opened. Everyone looked through the hall, and soon noticed the huge main hall of the castle like a church.

"This is the place where Beauxbaton's staff and students live, live, and study. Many areas inside have been cast without trace on a large scale last year to meet the growing space for students and staff Demand. Next, please follow me."

As Gabriel spoke, she led Link and the others into the main hall of the castle.

It was also when they stood in the main hall in person that Link and the others fully realized the magnificence and beauty of this hall.

This is a beauty that is different from the Hogwarts Castle Auditorium.

The design idea of ​​the Hogwarts auditorium is actually more inclined to the integration of man and nature.

It is precisely because of this that the ceiling of the auditorium is cast by Slytherin and turned into a magic curtain that can display the external climate scene in real time.

This idea is also shown in other aspects.

For example, it is already the twentieth century, but Hogwarts is still using magic candles for lighting, making the whole castle gloomy.

But Beauxbaton was different.

The construction of the castle clearly 'borrowed' a lot from Muggle cathedrals.

Its overall structure is dignified and majestic, and there are a large number of large arched stained glass windows on the walls, and even formed a figure on it.

The external sunlight hits the glass windows and then projects into the main hall, creating a dreamlike or heavenly beauty.

Such beautiful scenery also appeared above the heads of everyone.

On the high ceiling of the entire main hall, there is a huge magical mural painted.

The mural depicts what seems to be a dinner party, in which people in various simple and simple dresses are drinking and eating happily, and from time to time, they will look at Link and others below.

"This is Beauxbaton's auditorium. Generally, we will have daily meals and various celebrations here. As for those murals, they are the founders of Beauxbaton. The paintings depict their initial completion of the Boothbaton The structure of Barton School of Magic, the scene of the first celebration banquet." Gabriel explained, "The scenery here will be even more beautiful at night, when all the magic lights will be turned on, and fairies and elves will be there for us. Play it, the beauty..."

Gabriel stopped talking, her face longing, as if immersed in some kind of memory.

Link and Emily looked at Dumbledore teasingly.

All kinds of lights are bright, as if you are in a neon line, there are fairy music playing around, and you can raise your head when you are drinking with your friends around you, and you can talk to the seniors who are also in the banquet in the Zenith Let's toast each other with a glass of wine...

In comparison, the various banquets at Hogwarts are like rural open-air banquets.

Even the ghost show unique to Hogwarts, compared with the magnificent scene in front of it, seems to have become a bad performance by a low-level entertainer.

It's no wonder that Beauxbatons and his party complained about the poor conditions of Hogwarts when they came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament.

The gap between the two is indeed a bit big.

Dumbledore had no expression on his face.

He just scanned everything around him quietly, then coughed and said:

"Miss Gabrielle Delacour, let's stop for a moment about these introductions about scenery. To be honest, we are not interested in these, after all, we have seen too much. I think you should focus on introducing some cloth The teaching characteristics of Sparton School of Magic and Magic are better."

Gabriel was awakened from memory by Dumbledore's indifferent voice.

"Sorry, I lost my mind."

She saluted Link and the others and continued, "In terms of teaching characteristics, you don't have to worry. Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has invested more in teaching. We did not choose to compete with Hogwarts and Ilvermorny. A similar system of separate colleges, but chose a more excellent unified system."

Hearing this, Emily and Dumbledore frowned slightly.

In the front, Gabriel showed aboveboard that Beauxbaton's excellent hardware conditions can still be tolerated.

After all, they are indeed better than Hogwarts in this respect.

But now Gabriel started to kick Hogwarts uprightly.

This is a bit too much.

When Gabriel saw this, she smiled slightly and said:

"Since you all come from the magical world of the United States, you are naturally more familiar with Ilvermorny's sorting system and have a more sense of belonging. So it is normal to have some resistance to my remarks. However, what I said is the truth. Please listen to me explain slowly.

Whether it is Hogwarts or Ilvermorny, the original intention of their establishment of the branch system is to allow the various colleges to compete with each other, so that the overall quality of students can be improved benignly. For this reason, Hogwarts also set up colleges. Cup this honorary award.

This mechanism is classic and useful.

There are so many outstanding wizards in the history of Hogwarts and Ilvermorny, which is the best proof.

But the problem is that the disadvantages of this mechanism are also obvious.

That is, over time, this kind of competition will often evolve into a chain of contempt among colleges, as well as other vicious and widespread bullying incidents! "
