Chapter 363 We are best friends

When warriors from other schools appeared, Karkaroff always showed contempt.

Durmstrang's warriors have always been the best in the world, and the warriors from other schools are all insignificant.

But when Harry's name appeared, although Karkaroff showed contempt on the surface, the joy he felt was real.

That doesn't make sense!

He and Harry were not related in any way, so he had no reason to be happy for Harry.

Moreover, after watching Harry leave, Karkaroff secretly glanced at Barty Crouch. No one would believe that there was nothing wrong with this.

Sebastian pondered to himself.

Magical, how come Karkaroff and Little Batty ran away together?

Logically speaking, Barty Jr. should dislike Karkaroff very much, even hate him.

After all, Batty Jr. was imprisoned because Karkaroff reported him in order to escape punishment.

Could it be that Voldemort has spoken the word that they can let go of such irreconcilable hatred?

Or did Barty Jr. take the initiative to let go of his hatred for the sake of Voldemort's cause?

I can't figure it out...

Neither of these two people's brains are normal, and their thinking cannot be inferred using common sense.

The only thing I can figure out now is where Barty Jr.'s powerful polyjuice potion came from.

This polyjuice potion, which can last for two to three hours, can only be brewed by a potion master.

Durmstrang has no shortage of potion masters. As the headmaster there, it only takes a word for Karkaroff to get high-quality Polyjuice Potion if he wants it.

As for Karkaroff, as long as Voldemort expressed his willingness to let bygones be bygones, this guy would definitely agree to be an undercover agent in Hogwarts.

While Sebastian was brainstorming, Dumbledore read out the name on the second piece of parchment.

"The second champion of Hogwarts - Cedric Diggory."

Cedric stood up and walked to the room behind the professor's seat amid the cheers of the crowd.

"I knew it," Fred whistled, "Cedric is here."

"Not surprising," George agreed, "This guy has been ranked first since he entered school. Everyone thinks he is so outstanding that he doesn't look like a Hufflepuff."

Ron ignored his two brothers' words. He stared at the Goblet of Fire, looking forward to the last piece of parchment that was ready to be released.

Finally, the blue-white flame turned red again, and a piece of paper was carried high up by the flames, and then was accurately caught in Dumbledore's hand.

He glanced at the young wizards at Hogwarts and calmly read out the last name.

"The third champion - Draco Malfoy."

Cheers rang out again. This man is also the king of the canyon and deserves the title of warrior.

Ron stared blankly at Malfoy who was enjoying the cheers, feeling empty inside.

When I woke up from the dream, I realized that it was not me.

Although I had expected this result, why do I feel so bad?

"Ron..." Hermione gently grabbed Ron's hand, "Don't be disappointed, you are already great."

Ron turned his head and met Hermione's concerned eyes. The gentle comfort and silent encouragement made his heart soften.

By the way, Hermione's eyes are really beautiful. Why didn't I notice it before?!

Is it because she doesn’t like to take care of her fluffy hair, which leads to her good looks being hidden?

Her student ID card photo is quite beautiful.

Ron's dazed look made Hermione misunderstand. She stared into Ron's eyes and said gently, "If you are really unhappy, after the party, let's take a walk in the castle together to relax?"

Ron's heartbeat suddenly accelerated when he heard Hermione's words.

At this moment, the Warriors don't seem to be that important.

"Hermione, why are you so nice to me?"

"It should be," Hermione smiled softly, "We are best friends."

"When I was frustrated by the house-elf incident, you stayed with me until curfew by the Black Lake, telling me jokes and counseling me."

Best friend?

Maybe, I want more than just friends.

A boy’s maturity often begins with him liking a girl.

Ron thought a lot in an instant. He decided to study hard and improve his grades.

Perhaps only by becoming a better person can I express my feelings to Hermione.

He didn't say much, but just grinned and whispered: "Yes, we are best friends."

..................

When Harry walked into the waiting room, more than ten pairs of eyes looked at him, making him feel suffocated.

But in just a short moment, he straightened his chest and confidently greeted the other warriors.

However, no one had ever thought that the first warrior of Hogwarts would be a little boy who was not yet an adult.

No one looked down on Harry just because he was young. After all, the warriors for the Goblet of Fire were selected based on their strength.

They looked at Harry again and again with scrutinizing eyes, trying to see what was so special about this little guy.

Krum stood up and took the initiative to chat with Harry. As old rivals, he and Harry were not so unfamiliar.

Just as the two were chatting, Cedric walked in, which made Harry feel a little uncomfortable.

After nearly two months, he still hadn't figured out how to get along with Cedric. Whenever he thought about how close he was to Qiu Zhang, Harry felt uncomfortable.

It’s okay to fight in the canyon on a weekday, but it’s too hard to fight as a close-knit team for the next year.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long, and Malfoy soon arrived in the waiting room.

This made the warriors from other schools even more surprised. After all, the two warriors from Hogwarts were both little boys, which was really special.

Soon, Barty Crouch, Ludo Bagman, and the principals of the five schools entered the room.

"Next, I will represent the British Ministry of Magic to give you some pre-match guidance."

Barty Crouch stepped forward and said, "This tournament is destined to be extraordinary, not only because there are five schools participating, but also because the rules of the competition have changed."

“The competition is played in small groups, which means the competition is more challenging and more complex.”

"In order to ensure the safety of all contestants, the Ministry of Magic has arranged special security personnel to be on standby at all times. In addition, Hogwarts Headmaster Dumbledore has personally promised that he will do his best to ensure the safety of every warrior."

He glanced at all the warriors and said, "The first project is scheduled for November 24th. The project is very difficult, so I will give you a few tips."

"First, this project not only tests your strength, but also your courage and bravery."

"Second, the three members of the team must unite and remember that one person cannot complete this project."

"The third point is also the most crucial one. This project is related to fire. You can use your brains to prepare in advance."

"That's all for the instruction. See you in the game."
