Chapter 528 Please call him the Headmaster of Gryffindor!
After Les finished his opening remarks, he stopped talking and focused on the food served by the waiter.
I have to say that the meal Helga ordered was quite good. The tuna in the seafood platter was quite plump, and the lobster in the lobster soup was crispy and refreshing. You can tell that it was freshly cooked from live shrimp.
The quality of seafood on the cruise ship under the protection of Poseidon is really good.
The other dishes also have their own advantages, which made Les say that it is worth the price.
On the other hand, under Zeus's lobbying, Godric and Helga gradually stopped talking.
Zeus said something very right: the existence of gods and evil spirits is a good thing for wizards.
Gods, evil spirits, wizards, and Muggles have formed a very interesting ecosystem.
The gods need the offerings of Muggles, and at the same time they will provide shelter to Muggles, so that Muggles have ways and means to deal with evil spirits. Wizards are sandwiched between gods and Muggles, acting as lubricants.
They can not only help Muggles solve the evil spirits, but also restrain the gods, so that they dare not do the crazy devouring of Muggles' vitality to restore their strength. At the same time, wizards need the gods, the sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of Muggles, to prevent Muggles from crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.
In this system, evil spirits are pure villains, the gods are high above, and wizards play the role of friends of Muggles.
Obviously, the wizards have won a lot this time and become one of the biggest winners.
Although Godric and Helga hate the gods headed by Zeus, in the face of the overall situation, the two decided to restrain their likes and dislikes and be rational.
"So, can we be friends?"
Godric and Helga both bowed their heads and said nothing. Les and Rowena exchanged glances, and then Les raised his hand and filled Zeus with wine.
Zeus raised his glass and gestured to the four people, and then regardless of whether the other party reacted or not, he drank the wine directly, and then turned into a flash of lightning and disappeared.
Drinking this glass of wine means that the contract between the Olympian gods and the Hogwarts wizards has been established.
Les and Rowena's expressions also eased.
If any of the two old friends opposes making peace with the gods, they will continue to fight with the gods until they are destroyed.
Although this is not in the interests of the magic world, nor is it the best choice.
Shortly after Zeus left, Godric adjusted his mood and ate the food in front of him. It was as if what was in front of him was not a feast, but the ancient Greek gods.
Seeing that Godric had already started to clean the table, Helga called the waiter without any hesitation and marked a few dishes on the menu.
"Except for these, bring one of each of the others."
Waiter:...
His professional quality made him say nothing more. After a simple reminder, he asked his colleagues to bring up the delicacies one by one.
For passengers in the luxury compartment, the ingredients in the restaurant are free, which is equivalent to a buffet. But if there was too much waste, he would still report to the company and apply to blacklist these four people.
But he soon dispelled his concerns, because the red-bearded strong man among the four was simply a glutton!
After each dish was served, his three companions would take a fork, and then the strong man would throw all the food into the plate in front of him, and then destroy them in the blink of an eye, just like a whirlpool swallowing dead branches and fallen leaves.
This momentum lasted for nearly an hour, and the chef in the back kitchen was alarmed.
He couldn't help but come to the restaurant to make sure that only four people came.
He felt that the ordering was almost the same as the peak dining time.
After a whirlwind meal, Rice quietly cleaned up the mess, and then left the restaurant with a satisfied Godric.
After a simple calculation of how much Godric had just eaten, Rice was secretly shocked: If Godric didn't like to take students to hunt in the Forbidden Forest, Hogwarts might have gone bankrupt early due to financial problems!
Fortunately, Hogwarts is now a big family, and it doesn't need Godric to feed it. However, Les decided to send Godric to the Muggle city to eat buffet regularly.
You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run the household!
At the same time, Zeus came to the deck of the cruise ship.
Many tourists were sunbathing on the deck or looking at the beautiful ocean.
A brown-haired woman with healthy wheat-colored skin and slender limbs was lying on a sun lounger to bask in the sun. Her beautiful face and broad mind attracted many people's attention, but due to her inexplicable temperament, no one dared to approach her.
Those who intended to approach her would never have thought that the beautiful woman in front of them was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, war and art, who had a very high status among the Greek gods.
Zeus ignored everyone's gaze, walked directly to Athena, and then lay down on the lounge chair next to her.
"It seems that the Father God has successfully reached an agreement with those wizards."
"How do you know?" The faint smile on Zeus' face could not be eliminated at all.
He was really happy, because the conclusion of this peace treaty meant that the sword hanging over the heads of the gods had been removed.
"Because if the agreement was not reached, you might not be able to walk out of that restaurant alive."
His daughter's words wiped away the smile on Zeus' face like an eraser.
Zeus rubbed his temples and looked at Athena helplessly.
"Athena, after all, I am the king of the gods, and I still have the ability to protect myself."
Athena ignored him.
The previous war had been watched by the gods.
How should I put it? Anyway, Athena felt that unless the father took out another wishing stone, she would basically be unable to protect herself.
"I will leave Olympus for a while. Please keep an eye on Ares and don't let that idiot cause trouble to my temple and priests."
Zeus glanced at his proudest daughter and acquiesced to her actions - it was good enough that she could report to him. Ares didn't tell him when he went to trouble Hogwarts.
When he knew what Ares was going to do, he sent Apollo there immediately to prevent Ares from causing any bloodshed.
The result of that incident surprised Zeus. He didn't expect that there was a master of the main god level in Hogwarts!
Suppressing all kinds of emotions, Zeus said that he would keep an eye on Ares and punish him by not leaving his temple for fifty years.
After that, Athena stopped talking to her father, and enjoyed the sunbath on the deck like a real mortal.
It was hard to say whether she preferred the warm sun or the leisure time.
But a few minutes later, a scene he accidentally saw completely ruined his good mood: he saw his father walking towards the cabin upstairs with two handsome young men and two beautiful mortal girls. The two girls also led a huge black Labrador.
Athena: ...
I hope they don't play too much, he really doesn't want to have more brothers with strange blood.
The cruise ship finally docked in Sicily, Italy.
Athena got off the ship after the four giants got off, and then disappeared in the vast sea of people.
He also wanted to experience the life of mortals and do something big.
Les and the other four ignored the little plot between Zeus and his daughter. The four of them entered Switzerland from Italy, then went to France, and finally arrived in the UK slowly.
The four of them had a vacation that was neither too long nor too short, and they relaxed for a while, and then they met with Dumbledore at Diagon Alley.
"It's nice to see you again before I lie in the grave." Facing Rice and the other four, Dumbledore showed a kind of happiness from the heart.
During this year, his pressure was unprecedentedly high.
I thought I could retire with peace of mind after holding on to the thighs, but the four thighs disappeared at the same time. Who can bear this? It was that Dumbledore had a good mentality, and someone else would have started it long ago.
The burden that was unloaded before fell on his shoulders again, and this time the external pressure was unprecedentedly high. In front of the gods of Olympus, Voldemort's harm was relatively small!
Fortunately, several students stood up to help him share some of the pressure, and Daphne's children surprised him extremely. It can be said that with these children, Hogwarts has a future.
"We have had a wonderful journey. If you have enough time, we can tell you slowly." Rice responded with a smile.
"It's really a waste of time to talk to a 100-year-old man..." Dumbledore smiled bitterly and shook his head, but still invited the four people to Rupert's dessert shop.
After several years of development, the scale of Rupert's dessert shop has tripled, and it has become the leading dessert shop in Diagon Alley. The candies sold in it are no less than Honeydukes, and there are also extremely rich Muggle desserts.
There are many booths with good privacy here. Chatting here can not only satisfy Dumbledore's appetite, but also protect privacy.
Rupert was quite excited to see Rice again. She cheered and led the five people to the deepest seat, and then presented various desserts like water.
"Where should I start..." Rice thought for a moment and told Dumbledore about the experience of the four of them in the past year. Dumbledore raised his eyebrows.
To be honest, the direction of this story was quite unexpected to him.
"Establishing a Dark Lord stronghold in Azkaban..." Dumbledore laughed, and he remembered an old friend. It's just that he turned the castle into a prison, while the one in front of him turned the prison into a castle.
Of course, in this land of Western Europe, the distinction between castles and prisons is not clear enough. The towering walls that separate the king from the common people are another form of imprisonment.
After chatting for a while and eating a belly full of desserts, Dumbledore took out a roll of parchment from his arms.
"Mr. Gryffindor, please sign this contract. After signing, you will be the next headmaster of Hogwarts." Dumbledore said that he, an old man, had wanted to retire a long time ago, but there had been no suitable successor before.
Godric didn't respond. He looked at the empty dessert plates on the table and said in a fuss that Headmaster Dumbledore shouldn't eat so many sweets at your age.
"Most of this is for you to eat, we just tasted it!" Les mercilessly exposed Godric's rhetoric.
Godric was about to take the opportunity to discuss this topic in depth, but Rowena had already spread out the parchment in front of him and thoughtfully prepared an ink bottle and a quill for him.
"Godric, sign it, you will be the next headmaster of Hogwarts." Rowena's eyes flashed with excitement, and Helga took out the crystal ball for recording.
"What are you doing?!" Godric's hands couldn't help but tremble.
"The succession of the new headmaster is a serious matter. We must record this historic moment." Helga said righteously.
Rice took the opportunity to collect all the plates on the table and arranged some flowers around, making the scene look more solemn.
"No, I--" Godric finally failed to turn the former headmaster and three old friends around and signed his name on the contract.
From now on, Godric Gryffindor is the new headmaster of Hogwarts!
Rice and the other two "respectfully" saluted the new headmaster. Dumbledore's eyes flashed with joy, and Godric's face turned as red as his beard.
"This, this is not the case..." he stammered.
"How could it be?"
"Of course it is!"
"This is a necessary procedure, Headmaster Gryffindor!"
The three responded happily.
Happiness is conserved. Godric's happiness did not disappear, but was transferred to the three of them.
Looking at Salazar who couldn't suppress the curve of his mouth, Godric narrowed his eyes: "Okay, Salazar, you are very happy, right? Now that I am the headmaster, it will be easy for me to control you, a student, right?
Just wait for me!
Rice suddenly felt that something had changed that he couldn't see through.
After signing the contract and handing Hogwarts to Godric, Dumbledore quickly left Rupert's Dessert Shop, leaving the remaining space to Rice and the other four.
After chatting for a few more words, Rowena and Helga also left. They were going to walk around Diagon Alley for a while and buy some things.
Godric didn't stay either, he was going to start preparing to take over Hogwarts.
Soon, Rice was the only one left here.
He stretched his body, stretched his muscles and bones, and began to enjoy his vacation - they came back at a good time, it was summer vacation, they could relax for a while and do some entertainment activities. For example, read the report in the Daily Prophet about Godric's succession to the headmaster of Hogwarts.
That report was really joyful.
However, the happy time was short-lived. Rice's happiness came to an abrupt end after receiving the "start of school letter" from Hogwarts.
When Rice opened the envelope, a silver-green object fell out.
Yes, it was the prefect badge of Slytherin College.
This was the "feedback" from Godric.
