HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 149 High-profile appearance

Classes ended early on the evening of the 30th, and all students put on their cloaks and headed to the castle gate.

The weather had turned cold by the end of October, but Gloria and Draco were fine because their school uniforms were made of the hair of a red-flame dragon, so they could still feel warm even in the cold wind.

Other students were not so kind, and some people around them started to complain.

The pure white and bright moon hung over the forbidden forest, and everyone was guessing how the two schools would appear.

Suddenly, Headmaster Dumbledore, who was standing in the back, said, "If I am not mistaken, the representatives from Beauxbatons have arrived."

This statement dispelled the students' complaints and they looked around to see where the representatives would appear from.

Soon someone pointed to the sky and saw a huge shadow approaching quickly in the deep blue sky illuminated by the moon.

A pale blue carriage as big as a house flew into the sky, pulled by twelve silver-maned horses with wings.

As the distance got closer, the height of the carriage quickly decreased. After a loud noise, twelve horses pulling the carriage landed on the ground. Each horse was exceptionally large.

The car door was opened, and everyone saw the emblem on it, two crossed golden wands, each with three stars on it.

A boy in a light blue silk robe came down and opened the golden spiral staircase. When he looked up, many girls in Hogwarts gasped, and the handsome boy with brown hair and light blue eyes took a step back.

Soon after, a very large woman appeared, and everyone understood why such a large silver-maned horse and carriage were needed.

Draco chuckled beside him, "It seems that Hagrid was not bitten by the blasting-end skrewt, but cut his hair short and put on women's clothes to become the headmaster of Beauxbatons."

At this time, everyone got off the bus. More than a dozen boys and girls in school uniforms were shivering in the cold wind. Their school uniforms looked gorgeous, but they were not warm enough. For this reason, several students covered their faces with scarves.

Headmaster Dumbledore walked over and said, "Ms. Maxime, welcome to Hogwarts." He then kissed the back of her hand.

"Thank you." Maxim's voice was low, with an elegant smile on his face, "I hope everything is well with you, Dumbledore."

Then he introduced his students and started chatting with the lady.

Draco stared at the students and said, "They look like they're freezing to death."

Gloria touched his hand, which was not cold, "Headmaster Dumbledore will take them in after the conversation."

Draco curled his lips, fortunately they were not cold. He looked around to see if Durmstrang School was there, and then he saw Professor Moody leaning against a pillar in the corridor.

Since the last incident, Moody has not done anything out of line against their college. The homework is just heavier than that of other colleges, but the Slytherin students think it is worth it.

After talking with Ms. Maxime, Headmaster Dumbledore led the people in.

Soon a strange rumbling sound gradually became clear.

"Look over the lake!" shouted the voice often heard during school Quidditch matches. It was none other than Lee Jordan.

The dark water surface rolled up huge splashes, and waves washed to the shore. Then a whirlpool appeared in the middle of the lake, and a long black pole emerged, followed by the sails and rigging. Soon a magnificent ship rose to the surface of the water.

The skeleton-like ship looked like a newly salvaged shipwreck, with shells and other small creatures still attached to its hull. Like what the Muggle world calls a ghost ship, it slowly approached the shore.

The anchor was thrown into the water, and a plank of wood attached to the ship fell clattering onto the shore.

A tall, thin figure walked in front, with short hair, a goatee, and a cloak.

"Karkaroff." Dumbledore opened his arms.

The man named Karkaroff walked over quickly, "Dumbledore, my dear old friend, long time no see."

The two shook hands, and he introduced the students behind him. There were a dozen students wearing fur cloaks and fur hats on their heads. Both boys and girls were generally tall.

"These are the champion candidates of our school, Viktor, come and say hello to the headmaster of Hogwarts."

When Karkaroff mentioned this boy, he couldn't hide his boasting in his tone.

The stern-looking boy walked to the front and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Headmaster Dumbledore.

"I've heard of this kid. He participated in the Quidditch World Cup not long ago." The headmaster smiled and shook hands with Krum.

The other party just shook hands and nodded in greeting, but the students of Hogwarts were very excited.

This Bulgarian Seeker was so popular that even though he lost the match, most of the crowd still cheered for him.

Even the Slytherin team was excited and stood on tiptoe to get a better look at the Quidditch superstar.

Representatives from both schools arrived and were finally able to enter the auditorium.

The students of Beauxbatons sat at the Ravenclaw table, while the Durmstrangs came to the Slytherin table, which was in line with their school style, as both sides respected pure blood.

What made everyone jealous was that Krum and his group took the initiative to sit next to Gloria and Draco.

"I saw you in the Minister's box at the Quidditch World Cup." Krum offered his hand to Draco.

There was a hint of arrogance in Draco's eyes, "You had an amazing game."

Krum held his hand out in front of Gloria again, "You are Gloria Slytherin. We all know you in the school."

"You too, many students in our school admire you."

The two shook hands lightly and then let go. The dozen or so Durmstrang students sitting around took the initiative to greet Gloria.

"Although we were not able to go to the Minister's box, we saw the Snitch when it was next to you."

"Slytherin House looks different from the other houses."

They took off their fur cloaks, revealing the blood-red robes underneath. The wizarding students, who all respected pure-bloods, quickly started chatting together.

Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand, saying loudly: "To welcome the arrival of the two representatives of the magic academy, before the dinner begins, let's sing a free-style Hogwarts song to welcome them!"

A golden banner appeared above the hall, with lyrics surfacing on it. Headmaster Dumbledore used his wand as a baton, and immediately everyone from the four colleges sang happily, "Hogwarts, Hogwarts... Please teach us knowledge~"

Most people sang with great devotion, including Slytherin house, but Gloria was completely unable to speak. Draco lowered his head silently with an indescribable expression on his face.

After singing the song enthusiastically, the Durmstrang students at the Slytherin table belatedly applauded.

Headmaster Dumbledore then announced the official start of the dinner. Students from the other three houses kept looking over there. Gloria noticed Harry and Ron, and took the initiative to point them over there with Krum, "Those are my friends. They all like you very much."

Krum had a serious expression on his face. He nodded and then looked at someone. It took him a while to look away.

The girl sitting next to Gloria whispered, "Krum may look unapproachable, but he's actually very gentle and delicate."

They had many foreign dishes here, and the Durmstrang students soon realized that only Gloria's side had such dishes, so they calmly chose their favorite dishes and enjoyed them.

When everyone was chatting happily, there were gasps around. It turned out that a beautiful girl with silver hair and blue eyes went to the Gryffindor table and ordered a dish.

The girl was very beautiful, with hair that shone with a soft glow, and she looked beyond real.

"A wizard of Veela descent." Draco's words showed undisguised contempt.

Gloria saw Ron's face turn red and he stared blankly at the girl's back as she left. Harry was quite normal, but he couldn't help laughing when he saw his friend like this.

He retracted his gaze and glanced at the professor's dining table, and found that Hagrid, who was injured by the blasting-end skrewt, had arrived with a bandage on his hand, and there were two familiar figures.

Ludo Bagman and Derrick Short.

The two directors of the Ministry of Magic came to Hogwarts in such a low-key manner.

Gloria elegantly pressed the corners of her lips with her napkin, "They are coming."
