Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 444: A Howler Letter to Dumbledore
,!
Professor McGonagall's words caught Sean off guard, and he asked in surprise, "Can you bypass age?"
"In fact, since the Goblet of Fire was born, there has been no strict age limit requirement," Professor McGonagall explained, "The age requirement was discussed by the principals of the schools participating in the competition and the Ministry of Magic. After all, the Goblet of Fire must follow tradition, which is a very dangerous competition even for adult wizards."
Shawn nodded. The reason why the Goblet of Fire was suspended in the past was because the death rate was too high. It is said that there was once a horrible competition where all the players except the winner died.
Professor McGonagall continued: "You also know that the relationship between Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic is very tense now. In many cases, Hogwarts is no longer under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic once wanted to move out of the school board, but many people in the school board were unwilling to do so, so it was nothing."
Shawn snickered, Lucius Malfoy was on the school board, it's no wonder he was willing to stand up for the Ministry of Magic—this old fox chose to live in seclusion when he didn't receive any information from Sean, and pretended to be dead.
The highest state of grass on the wall is not to fall, just to pretend that you don't exist.
"With the actual jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic greatly weakened, Professor Dumbledore added a few rules to the school regulations, including the Goblet of Fire."
"If a student at school has reached the age of fifteen, has a Hogwarts Special Contribution Award, has a Hogwarts position certificate, and can prove his strength and contribution, the school will issue a personal certificate—this certificate can be used to remove traces and legally own dangerous magical animals. Of course, you can also participate in the Goblet of Fire at a younger age."
Sean was dumb, he looked at Professor McGonagall with a dry smile, and said, "Professor, how do I feel..."
Unexpectedly, Professor McGonagall nodded readily: "You are right, this certificate is for you, Professor Dumbledore told me so himself."
Sean: "..."
"A part of the person in charge of admissions is that you are really suitable, and the other part is that this position is also a great contribution to the school. Professor Dumbledore has made a point calculation system. I have calculated it. In addition to this admissions, you will be able to get the certificate after passing the assessment. Moreover, this is not a blank piece of paper. This certificate really has the magic power of Professor Dumbledore. When you hold it, those things that require a certain age to do, those age-limited magics will no longer restrict you. "
Hiss, good things are good things. The wizarding world still has strict control over minors. Although this is not a big deal for Sean, sometimes there will always be troubles—for example, the current access certificate of Diagon Alley requires an adult wizard to apply.
However, Dumbledore actually specially formulated a new school rule in order to let me participate in the Goblet of Fire... Moreover, the points from the enrollment activity that has not yet started must be added to pass.
Unless he goes through the back door, Sean doesn't think anyone in the history of Hogwarts can get more points than himself... He has won two special contribution awards alone.
Looking at the speechless Sean, Professor McGonagall smiled apologetically: "Sean, I'm sorry I didn't discuss it with you, but the Goblet of Fire has indeed not been given to Hogwarts for a long time. However, I can solemnly promise you that after you get the certificate, you can just use it as a useful magic tool. The professors, including Mr. Principal, all agree that it is up to you to decide whether to participate in the Goblet of Fire."
Sean shrugged his shoulders quite indifferently: "Actually, I'm also quite interested. I still want to participate if I have this opportunity."
"You really look more like a Gryffindor—" Professor McGonagall sighed.
"Ravenclaw and Gryffindor don't conflict." Sean responded with a smile.
He really has nothing to panic about the Goblet of Fire. According to the original book, the first level is the fire dragon, even if Sean can't subdue his own big guy, he can defeat him; the second level is searching for people at the bottom of the lake, and free movement underwater is no problem for Sean. He even has the Basilisk and the Selma Lake Monster, two big guys who can run rampant in the Black Lake; as for the third level, with Sean's current strength, plus his many magical animal friends...
Maybe a bit of a bully...
Even if the difficulty is increased, it is not difficult for Xiao En. It is also a good experience to win the Goblet of Fire and add a glorious touch to his resume.
Professor McGonagall finished explaining everything, and then walked out of the living room with Sean in satisfaction.
Hermione, Daisy, and Stephanie didn't leave. They were sitting on the sofa with their backs straight, chatting with Sean's mother, Mrs. Wallop.
Seeing Sean and Professor McGonagall coming out, they all stood up in unison.
"It's almost time, excuse me, Mrs. Wallop."
Sean's mother responded politely: "I hope I didn't neglect you, Professor McGonagall."
"Thank you very much for your hospitality, then I will go first, goodbye, everyone."
When Professor McGonagall left, everyone in the room looked at Sean.
Sean spread his hands: "Actually, it's just a small matter, let's do some errands..."
…
Hogwarts Castle.
When the summer vacation came, all the students returned home, and most of the teaching staff also returned to their residences. This classical castle seemed a little empty.
But fortunately, talking murals, partying ghosts, and those armors with broken mouths, these magical existences keep the castle from becoming lifeless.
And this day, the castle became a little more lively.
A table was set up in the auditorium, and the house elves didn't just stay in the kitchen. They put their heads on the plates and happily delivered delicious food to the returning people.
Sean tasted the new dishes developed by Polis (the house elf who decided not to wash his hands after shaking hands with Sean), and chatted with the people around him.
"I was surprised when Professor McGonagall said she wasn't in charge of the admissions this time. It turned out to be you." Charlotte drank a glass of cold beer boldly, and raised one leg without caring about her image.
Now that there are no students at Hogwarts, she doesn't have to work hard to maintain her dignified image as a teaching assistant.
Colton on the side was gracefully dividing a piece of steak with a knife and fork. He forked a piece of steak that had been cut into a cube and put it into his mouth, chewing carefully for a while before swallowing.
"Sean did a good job, he's in charge, it's normal." Colton took a napkin and wiped the corner of his mouth that wasn't even stained with sauce, and said lightly.
Charlotte snorted: "Do you need to say it? Sean is much better than some guy who has no gentlemanly demeanor and lingers!"
Kolton didn't change his face: "There is still an hour before the mission - if you don't drink before the mission, you may be able to bring a little persuasiveness by saying this."
"You! It's just a glass of beer. Will there be a problem with my drinking capacity?" Charlotte's eyes widened. "And we are going to recruit students, not to fight and kill Mr. Sterling who can only 'do tasks'!"
"This proves nothing but your carelessness and ignorance, and the outside world is tense. Only about 60% of the wizards who escaped from Azkaban have been captured. Shouldn't your own safety be the priority at this time?"
"You!"
Kolton is like a cannonball, but the shells are all sarcasm without fluctuation.
"By the way, even if you don't consider your own safety, do you think the parents of the freshmen would be willing to hand over their children to Hogwarts when they see such an alcoholic?"
"Why..."
"I know you want to say that you can use magic to hangover, but this represents an attitude problem. Parents are far more sensitive than you can imagine when it comes to major life decisions for their children."
"It's disappointing, you should be glad that Professor Dumbledore is not sitting here now."
"Oh, Professor McGonagall is here—will she be disappointed?"
Colton's meal was full of firepower, and Charlotte was immediately furious. She had already blushed after drinking a few glasses of beer.
"Hmph, I'm up to you!" Charlotte snorted coldly, but didn't take another sip of the cold beer.
She took a glass of iced pumpkin juice and complained as she drank it: "It's such a great holiday, I still have to do things with you."
"That's because you have nothing else to do during the summer vacation, so when Professor McGonagall was looking for someone, you immediately agreed." Colton cut another piece of square beef and put it in his mouth.
Charlotte rolled her eyes: "On the first day of the holiday, when I arrived at Knockturn Alley, I met you, an unappetizing guy—tch, I'd rather work at Hogwarts than see your stinky face."
"Very well, I think so too, do you agree, stupid Miss Hawke?"
"Believe it or not, I'm going to kill you with a fork right now?!"
"Wait and see."
Shawn shrugged and ignored the bickering couple.
The quarrel between Charlotte and Colton has become a daily routine, and Sean would try to persuade him at first, but now it's just watching a comedy movie.
However, it was this pair of enemies who came to Sean's house to recruit students, and now Sean is going to recruit others with them, and even Colton of Nurmengard has also worked for Hogwarts.
I have to say that fate is really a wonderful thing.
Today, all the admissions staff gathered at Hogwarts. Sean had already assigned tasks to everyone before lunch started. With the help of Colton, the "insider", he also obtained information about the key areas of Nurmengard's admissions in previous years. Of course, Sean left the difficult bones to himself.
When the normal enrollment is over, he will go to Durmstrang's site to secretly poach people...
There was also Dumbledore who rarely appeared at the lunch table today. Sean tried to talk to him before the banquet started, but the riddle old man just pretended to be stupid and didn't say anything.
When the meal was about to end, suddenly an owl flew into the auditorium.
The tawny-yellow owl looks old but is surprisingly agile as it makes a quick circle before dropping a package.
The package landed in front of Dumbledore.
"Oh, another gift?"
Dumbledore said with a smile, he did not avoid the people on the table, and after putting down the pudding he had just picked up, he unwrapped the package.
Inside is a red letter.
After Dumbledore unwrapped it, the red letter slowly floated in front of him.
"Oh? Someone actually sent a roaring letter to Professor Dumbledore?" Sean said in surprise.
He was so curious, howling letters are usually magic props used by parents to reprimand their children, so sending a howling letter to Dumbledore is really daring...
Dumbledore didn't seem to have the intention of opening the roaring letter, the red letter began to emit blue smoke from the four corners, and Dumbledore was still smiling calmly.
"Old——!!!" Only a huge word jumped out, Dumbledore waved his hand lightly, and the roaring letter that should have shaken the dust off the ceiling suddenly fell silent, only the mouth in the center of the envelope was silently opening and closing.
"Enjoy dessert." Dumbledore said to the others with a smile.
For some reason, Sean always felt that Dumbledore looked happy after receiving this shouting letter...
"The seventh letter—" Charlotte on the side was not surprised at all, but said to Sean.
"Huh? Professor Dumbledore received seven Howler letters?" Sean asked curiously.
Colton added next to it: "There are nine letters in total. The alcoholic next to you didn't come to dinner for two nights, and Professor Dumbledore still received the letter."
"Thank you for your reminder!" Charlotte rolled her eyes and ignored him, and said to Sean, "We came back a few days ago, and Professor Dumbledore will be with us when we eat, and he will receive a Howler letter every day at lunch and dinner, including today's, that's nine."
"Continuously sending roaring letters to Professor Dumbledore... and Dumbledore is not angry?" Sean was surprised.
"No, Professor Dumbledore doesn't let the roaring letter make a sound every time, and he looks quite happy-a bit like a child who succeeds in pranking... But, the professor is really childish sometimes?"
"Anyway, the person who sent a roaring letter to Professor Dumbledore must be daring~IndoMTL.com~ Colton said.
Sean nodded in agreement, yes, bold...
Huh——? !
Shawn looked over suspiciously, and Dumbledore had already put away the letter.
Grindelwald is the only one who dared to send a roaring letter to Dumbledore...
Hey guy, what happened, Grindelwald looked very dissatisfied-the old man was hiding under the invisibility cloak, and he still wanted to send Dumbledore a shouting letter?
Sean's doubts were not answered, the lunch was over soon, and it was time to get down to business.
"I hope you all have a smooth journey. In addition, the situation outside is tense after all. Remember to pay attention to your own safety first."
Under Dumbledore's instructions, everyone moved through the Portkey.
------Off topic------
Huh, I still wrote it out...
