Hogwarts Blood Wizard

"Is that so?" Hermione gave Ivan a suspicious look, but didn't say anything, because the other little wizards were also curiously looking there.

After Ms. Maxim talked with Dumbledore, she left the carriage and took the students of Boothbatten to the castle to rest.

Hogwarts professors and students continue to wait for Durmstrang's personnel to arrive.

The sky gradually darkened, and the cold wind became more and more bitter. Just when Ivan and others were a little impatient, a strange voice was faintly coming from a distance.

The sound sounded like someone was beating a drum that leaked, accompanied by a slight sucking sound.

"Ah, it seems that Karkaroff has finally arrived!" Dumbledore shouted happily.

"Where is it?" Ron looked around, then up to the sky, but there was nothing nearby.

Ivan stared at the Black Lake closely. The surface of the originally calm lake suddenly became restless at this moment. A huge spray was turned up, and the waves hit the wet lake shore.

A large whirlpool appeared in the center of the Black Lake. A thing that looked like a flagpole was slowly rising from the center of the whirlpool, and then the sails fluttered high. The last huge sailboat rushed directly out of the water, splashing everywhere. The splash is like a light rain.

Ivan looked up at it. The exterior of the ship looked very old, even a bit dilapidated, like the remains of a sunken ship that had just been salvaged.

On the portholes, you can see the misty dim light, shining in the dark, if there are a few more skeleton pirates on the deck, it will be almost like the ghost ship in the Muggle story.

As we sailed all the way, within a few minutes, the big ship slowly stopped on the shore of the lake. With a muffled noise, a solid wooden board stretched out from the ship and landed on the shore of the lake.

A group of tall and mighty wizards walked down the board from the boat. They were uniformly dressed in thick fur cloaks and covered their bodies. They took off their hoods until they got closer.

Headed by a tall and thin old wizard, he has short white hair, a thin chin with a goatee with a small curl on the tip, and a pair of cold and sharp eyes, but when he is near Dumbledore They showed exceptional enthusiasm.

"Meet again, my dear old buddy! How are you doing? How are you?" The old wizard laughed and stretched out his hand, his voice was round and sweet.

"I'm fine, thank you, Professor Karkaroff." Dumbledore reached out and shook his hand.

Karkaroff shook his hand for a few seconds before releasing it, turning his head to look at the towering Hogwarts Castle, and said with emotion."Ah, Hogwarts! It's great here... I regret not coming sooner!"

"It's not too late now, isn't it? You'll have to stay here for months, so you can go shopping..." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Yes, this year's Triwizard Tournament is going to be going on for a long time." Karkaroff nodded, and then he slapped his head and turned to look at the students behind him.

"Oh, when it comes to this, I almost forgot... Wiktor, come here, warm up, don't be cold..."

A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy came out of Demstrang’s students. He looked very sturdy, with the coat of arms of the Bulgarian team painted on his cloak.

"Don't you mind, Dumbledore? Victor has a bit of a cold recently... I can't let him stay outside in such a cold place for too long!" Karkaroff's words were full of apologetics, but his face was Is showing a little complacency.

Before Dumbledore could reply, the little wizards at Hogwarts began to commotion. Many people recognized the boy, the legendary Seeker Krum of the Bulgarian team, a world-class Quidditch star!

"God, Harry, Ivan, Hermione! It's Krum, he's at Hogwarts! Am I right?" Seeing the idol just standing in front of him, Ron was so excited that he tried hard. He shook Harry's arm next to him happily, and the words were a little incoherent.

"I didn't expect Krum to be a student, his skills are so good!" Ron murmured added.

"I know it's Krum!" Harry reluctantly pushed Ron's hand away. He admitted that Krum's skills are very good, but that's not necessary, right?

Ivan also looked at Ron in surprise, unable to understand his behavior, but thought of Lockhart in the second grade, and stopped talking, there were so many crazy people back then.

There are not a few little wizards like Ron. Many little wizards are excited to see Krum. Several senior girls complain about why they don’t carry pen and paper with them. If that’s the case, you can do it later. Go up to sign the first time.

Such remarks were naturally heard by Karkaroff, and the smile on his face suddenly became stronger.

Krum didn't respond much, he had experienced too many occasions like this, and he had long been used to it.

"Very good, I read the report of that game, you played very well!" Dumbledore looked at Krum and said appreciatively.

Cultivating a seventeen or eighteen-year-old world-class star is indeed something to show off, and he is not surprised that Karkaroff would specifically mention it in front of him.

"It's just a pity, I remember the Bulgarian team lost the entire game in the end!" Dumbledore put on a regretful look.

"It's very bad!" Karkaroff emphasized, and complained dissatisfied."And this is not to blame Krum, he has done well enough! The Bulgarian team will definitely replace those unqualified players next time, and they will definitely win the championship by then!"

"That's true, I'm here to congratulate Krum in advance!" Dumbledore just smiled.

Karkaroff raised his eyebrows triumphantly, and even Krum showed a smile. Dumbledore was known as the strongest white wizard in England, and it was natural to be happy to be praised by him.

However, before they were happy for long, Dumbledore continued.

"By the way, I think there should be more exchanges between outstanding students. Krum also needs some friends at Hogwarts, so please let me introduce you..."

"Halse!" Dumbledore turned his gaze to the Hogwarts team and found Ivan.

Ivan, who was watching the excitement, suddenly heard his name with a dazed expression, but was stared at by Dumbledore, he quickly reacted, Shi Shiran walked out of the queue, looked at Karkaroff, and spoke politely. Said.

"Hello, Principal Karkaroff!"

Seeing Ivan who came by, Karkaroff's eyes narrowed and his face became a little unsightly, but he still pulled out a smile and patted Ivan on the shoulder and spoke.

"Ah! I know you, Mr. Hals! I can hear your name in Durmstrang."

Krum next to him was also looking at Ivan, the happy expression on his face had been put away, and it turned very solemn.

He knew very well that his task was arduous. He needed to represent Demstrand overwhelming Hogwarts and Boothbatten, winning the Triwizard Tournament, and establishing Demstrang's reputation!

But Krum has also read the Nordic Times report and knows that Ivan is the Merlin Medal winner, and the gold content of this heavy identity is higher than that of his well-known Quidditch player!

Although all the thoughts in his mind drifted away, Krum was still handsome on the surface, he took the initiative to step forward and said hello.

"Hello, Hals, it's nice to meet you. I saw a report about you in a column, and it said you got a second-level Merlin Medal, right?"

Hearing this, Ivan's face became a little embarrassed.

"Sorry, Krum, Principal Karkaroff, I think your information may be wrong..." Ivan said hesitantly.

"Is it a report error?" Krum was stunned and asked subconsciously, and he was even more relieved.

Karkaroff's expression also eased a lot, he smiled and said comfortingly."Haha...it doesn't matter, I understand the nature of those newspapers, they always exaggerate things habitually..."

"No, Principal Karkaroff, I mean your news is out of date. I am now the winner of the Merlin Medal!" Ivan corrected.

Professor Karkaroff's smiling expression froze suddenly, and there was no response for a long time.

"Yes...Is it? That's really amazing..." Krum also stammered for a long time, and the words seemed to be forced out of his mouth.

"Wait, Albus... I remember that the first class Merlin Medal will be awarded to wizards who have made significant contributions to the magical world. How could they... how could they give it to a fourteen-year-old child?" Karkaroff Somewhat unbelievable, he suspects there is an inside story!

"Yes, because of Hals, the Merlin Knights made a rare exception!" Dumbledore said with emotion, and after a pause, he continued.

"Because he not only researched the wolf poison potion that can keep the werewolves sober, but also solved a big problem in the magic world. At the end of the school year, he caught a Death Eater who had been hidden for many years, and by the way corrected the Ministry of Magic. A major mistake!"

When talking about Death Eaters, Dumbledore deliberately increased his tone.

Karkaroff's face changed.

Ivan's thoughts moved, and then he remembered that Karkaroff was also a Death Eater, or that kind of traitor who betrayed Voldemort in the great trial more than ten years ago.

Thinking of this, Ivan mumbled to himself that Dumbledore was not an ordinary bad, digging into other people's pain points.

On the bright side, Ivan was polite and polite. He sighed and said modestly."Actually, I just did some small work, which is really ashamed..."

The corner of Karkaroff's mouth twitched, and Dumbledore looked at him playfully, waiting for Karkaroff's response.

Karkaroff opened his mouth, trying to say something, but in the end he closed it again, and it took a long time to say a word."The wind is a bit strong today, let's get in the house quickly!"
