Chapter 81 Year-End Dinner
The year-end dinner was held as usual on the last day before the holiday.
In the auditorium, the sky blue representing Ravenclaw is eye-catching.
You must know that in the past few years, the Great Hall has been decorated with green, which represents Slytherin.
For a while, Professors McGonagall and Flitwick even felt physically uncomfortable with the color.
Especially combined with Snape’s proud face and the way he kept walking back and forth in the staff room holding the trophy, the two professors felt very angry. Fortunately, Professor Sprout took these things lightly, otherwise the four deans might have had a big fight in the lounge.
On the wall behind the guest of honor seat, the original banner depicting a snake was replaced by a huge banner depicting an eagle.
There was some commotion in the auditorium, with students sitting at the long table bragging and spanking.
A moment later, Dumbledore suddenly appeared. Under the pressure of Professor McGonagall’s eyes, the noise in the auditorium gradually subsided.
“Another year has passed!”Dumbledore stood in front of the podium happily,”Before enjoying these delicious dishes, I must trouble everyone to listen to an old man’s cliché.”
“What a year it has been! Your little minds must be richer than before… There is a whole summer vacation waiting for you, which allows you to digest those things and free up your brains before the start of the next semester.……”
Everyone looked at him, and Dumbledore said softly:”First of all, we have lost another Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, which means we need to recruit another one.”
After hearing this, Sneezy Pu looked at the principal eagerly, with the words”Choose Me” written all over his face.
Dumbledore certainly knew what his beloved Potions Professor was thinking, but he didn’t dare let Snape hold this cursed position.
“This is a very difficult thing,” Dumbledore showed a headache.”I published this news in major newspapers a few months ago, but until now, no one has written. Discuss specific matters with me”
“I also wrote to several of my friends, but they all rejected them without exception. They all accused me of trying to kill them,” Dumbledore said with a smile.
The little wizards burst into laughter, everyone knew that Defense Against the Dark Arts The position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts is an evil position. If someone wants to harm someone without being arrested by the Aurors, the best way is to tell him,”The organization has decided that you will be the Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.””
“If you have a good candidate, you can propose it to me and I will consider it carefully.” Dumbledore stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
“The second thing, as far as I know, the specific scores of each house are as follows: fourth place, Gryffindor, 273 points; third place, Hufflepuff, 332 points; second place, Slytherin, 381 Points… first place, Ravenclaw 402 points.”When he read Ravenclaw’s score, he unconsciously amplified his voice.
A burst of thunderous cheers and stampings broke out at the Ravenclaw table. Hermione shook Ivis’ shoulders excitedly, praising him. Nello and Qiu hugged each other and jumped up and down excitedly.
This semester, the academic eagles showed extremely strong offensiveness. Having already won the Quidditch Academy Cup, they all saw the hope of winning the Academy Cup..So
, the little eagles actively
answered questions in class and frantically added points to their own colleges. The eaglets with full firepower were very scary, and all you could see during class was their right hands raised high.
In this case Next, the reason why Ravenclaw and Slytherin were not separated in points was because of Snape. For Slytherin’s seventh consecutive championship, he was so shameless that he frantically found trouble in potions class and caused trouble for other houses. A lot of points were deducted, and then points were added to their own house.
But in the end, Ravenclaw was slightly ahead of Slytherin and successfully won the House Cup.
“Yes, yes, good performance, Ravenclaw,” said Dumbledore,”but the recent events must also be taken into account.”
The auditorium became very quiet, and the smiles of the Ravenclaws also softened a bit.
Come on, the classic bonus point session, Avis sat upright.
Ravenclaw currently leads Gryffindor by more than a hundred points , plus he also participated in the adventure in the penalty area, Avis is not too worried about Gryffindor overtaking Ravenclaw in points.
“Ahem,” Dumbledore cleared his throat,”I still have some final points to distribute. Let me see, right……”
“First thing, Mr. Ron Weasley of Gryffindor……”
Everyone’s eyes immediately fell on the Gryffindor table. Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Ron’s face suddenly turned red, looking like a carrot dried by the sun.
“In the face of danger, he did not abandon his friends, but chose to advance and retreat with him. Because of his loyalty to friendship, I will award fifty points to Gryffindor House.”
The cheers of the Gryffindors almost overturned the enchanted ceiling, and the stars above their heads seemed to be shaken slightly.
Ivis could hear Percy’s words while sitting on the Ravenclaw table. The voice said,”It’s my brother, you know! My youngest brother!”
It took a lot of effort for everyone to calm down.
“Second – Harry Potter……”Dumbledore said, and the Great Hall became extremely quiet.
“He showed fearless courage, extraordinary courage and kindness, for which I would also like to award Gryffindor House sixty points.”
The noise was deafening. Harry’s originally pale face turned rosy. He excitedly hugged Ron’s shoulders and shared the joy with him.
The Ravenclaws silently calculated the scores in their hearts, and then relaxed at the same time. Breathing. Gryffindor’s current score is 383 points, 2 points higher than the second Slytherin, but far behind Ravenclaw.
Dumbledore raised his hand again, and the auditorium gradually became quiet again.
“One last thing,” Dumbledore smiled,”As the founder of Ravenclaw House said, ‘Extraordinary wisdom is mankind’s greatest wealth’. Mr. Elvis Evans, in his fight against the dark wizard, displayed a level of magic well beyond what his age should have expected.
Mr. Evans was able to resist great temptation and unswervingly chose to stand on the side of justice. For this, I would also like to award seventy points to Ravenclaw House.”
If anyone was standing outside the Great Hall at this moment, they might have thought that there was an explosion here. The cheers on the Ravenclaw table were getting louder and louder. The crowd surged up and drowned Avis. They threw him up, Catch it and throw it up again…
At the guest of honor, Dumbledore did not interrupt the students’ activities. He moved his lips slightly and said with emotion:”Youth!……”
