Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 590: Duel Club
"Alas!"
"Aren't you going to Hogsmeade with us again?"
"Sure enough, since I had a girlfriend, I completely abandoned us."
"What a sweetheart."
Fred, George and Lee Jordan grin and tease Albert as he fiddles with his cape in front of the full-length mirror.
"Shut up!"
Albert turned his head to stare at the three who were teasing him, then changed the subject and asked, "When are you going to give me Christmas presents?"
"What a sly guy." George muttered, motioning for Fred to give Albert.
The latter immediately took out an exquisitely packaged gift box from his drawer and threw it to Albert, "A surprise for you from me and George."
"You don't mind if I unpack it now"
Albert opened the gift box before Fred and George could answer. There were two strange custard cookies inside. It was a bit shabby.
"How long have you kept it, is this thing still edible?" Albert removed the wrapping paper on it, sniffed the smell of the custard biscuits, and asked pretending to be disgusted.
"Don't worry, we've been using the Frozen Charm to preserve it, and we'll definitely still be able to eat it." Fred almost patted his chest and assured, "It will definitely bring you unexpected surprises."
Albert looked suspiciously at the Weasley twins, who immediately narrowed their eyes as if they wanted to see him embarrassed by eating custard cookies.
"Hum, don't think I don't know, this thing is a joke prop you invented."
Originally, Albert, who was about to pass the custard biscuits to his mouth, was suddenly put back into the box.
The two turned their heads sarcastically, obviously a little embarrassed to be exposed.
"What effect?"
The twins turned their heads and whistled, pretending they didn't hear.
"Who gives me a demonstration?" Albert asked, shaking the custard cookie in his hand.
"He!"
Fred and George both raised their fingers to Lee Jordan and said in unison.
"You two bastards."
Lee Jordan couldn't help twitching at the corners of his mouth. He didn't want to pay any more attention to the Weasley twins. He took out a small gift box from his cabinet and handed it to Albert.
"Christmas gift for me"
Albert reached out and took the delicate little gift box. When he opened it, he found several brand-new wizard cards. These should all be Lee Jordan's latest products.
Albert took a closer look at the content above and felt that it was not bad.
"I want to create a deck related to the Chamber of Secrets." As soon as Lee Jordan finished his words, he couldn't help shouting, "Bastard, what are you trying to do, stop it."
While Albert was reading the effects and introduction on the wizard card, he heard slapstick beside him, turned his head and saw that Fred and George shoved a quick custard cookie into his mouth .
The next moment, Lee Jordan was an ugly canary covered in feathers.
"Transformed cookies?"
Albert grabbed Lee Jordan's arm with interest and looked at the feathers on it.
"We prefer to call it canary biscuits." Fred and George said in unison, and by the time they spoke, Lee Jordan's feathers had completely fallen off and returned to its original appearance.
"The smell is a bit strange, you need to find a way to cover it up."
Albert picked up a canary biscuit, took a bite, and savored the taste of this biscuit, which was a little different from ordinary custard biscuit.
After he swallowed the biscuit, he soon turned into a large canary, or rather a geek covered in feathers.
Albert tried to pull the feathers off his body, only to find that he actually felt pain, as if the feathers were growing on his body.
"What did you put in it?" Albert asked curiously after the feathers fell off.
"A potion found in the library." Fred blinked and explained, "A shape-shifting potion."
"What do you think," George asked nervously, "will it be popular with everyone?"
"Everyone should like this prank product." Albert pulled out his wand and waved lightly, and all the feathers that fell to the ground disappeared. "However, canary biscuits are still easy to spot and taste different from ordinary custard biscuits."
"If I'm free another day, I'll take a look at it for you. I've been very busy recently." Albert said and walked downstairs.
"Busy on a date," George mumbled.
"If you're envious, go find a girlfriend quickly, be careful all the beautiful girls are invited away." Albert teased.
The three of them couldn't help rolling their eyes, this guy really doesn't mind his back pain when he's talking.
"What happened over there?"
Albert, Fred, George and Lee Jordan walked through the foyer and saw a large crowd gathered around the bulletin board, reading a piece of parchment that Filch had just pinned.
"Let's go and have a look." Lee Jordan immediately ran over to join in the fun.
Students around are talking loudly about the school's planned duel club.
"It's always a little weird," George muttered. "I don't know who's going to teach us."
"Are we going? It doesn't feel useful." Fred said in a low voice, "I think there are probably few students in the school who will be our opponents."
Fred didn't talk too much. After Albert's training last time, they were far superior to other students in dueling.
"I heard that Professor Flitwick was a duel champion when he was young. Maybe he's the one to teach us." Lee Jordan came over to share information with them.
"You think too much." Albert said after walking through the crowd into the hall. "This style is probably a trick of Lockhart."
"Oops!"
Fred and George couldn't help screaming. They felt that this matter was 80% told by Albert again. If it was Lockhart, the so-called dueling club would probably become a farce.
"Then at eight o'clock tonight, shall we still go?"
Several people knew exactly what Lockhart was, and were no longer interested in the so-called dueling club.
"Go, why don't you go." Albert looked strange, "Maybe, we can see a good show."
"I don't know why Professor Dumbledore agreed to Lockhart's nonsense." Lee Jordan said in a low voice, looking at the students in the hall who were discussing the dueling club.
In Defense Against the Dark Arts, Lee Jordan was called on by Lockhart several times to play various monsters ~IndoMTL.com~ which made him feel bad for Lockhart.
"Probably want to ease the tension in the castle." Albert put a few slices of bacon into his sandwich, took a big bite, and said vaguely.
"Don't you think that's funny?" Fred and George said with a smile.
"Interesting?" Lee Jordan looked around the hall and found that many students in the hall had seen the notice and were interested in the so-called dueling club.
βIt never hurts to learn something,β George said with a smile.
"Then I hope to have the opportunity to be personally guided by Professor Lockhart." Lee Jordan suddenly laughed maliciously.
"Come on." Fred rolled his eyes, how could he not have guessed Lee Jordan's thoughtfulness, "I think Lockhart will probably find Albert."
"No, he'll be looking for Potter, didn't you notice that Lockhart actually likes Potter?" Albert said meaningfully.
"Care about Harry, why?" the three asked in unison.
"Potter is famous!" Abbott said mysteriously. "And Professor Lockhart likes to be in the spotlight. He probably wants to be famous through Harry."
"No way!" George asked in confusion, "Aren't you famous too?"
"Stupid, Lockhart doesn't dare." Lee Jordan reminded sullenly, "Don't forget, last year Professor Quirrell saw Albert and wanted to turn around immediately. Like Lockhart. If he dares to find Albert, it is estimated that he will be tortured by problems to the point of doubting his life in a few days.β
George quipped, "It seems that Professor Lockhart is smarter than Professor Quillow!"
