The first White Lord of Hogwarts - Chapter 82
The two chatted for a long time by the lake until Hermione and other friends found them.
In the afternoon, there was a Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Slytherin.
Ivan and Hermione didn’t really understand the fun of Quidditch, but Neville and Parvati were in high spirits.
What’s more, Harry was their friend.
Ivan must go to his game to show his support.
As the game progressed, one after another Gryffindor team members were injured and fell, and Ivan felt the cruelty of this game.
But Ivan didn’t say anything.
For wizards, this injury is not much different from an ordinary foul in a football team.
In addition, Ivan must admit that Quidditch is indeed a very exciting flying sport.
If you have to make an analogy, Quidditch is not like football or basketball. It is more like racing, an extreme game that requires full concentration and crazy secretion of adrenaline.
What a pity.
Ivan knows flying magic, which means that he will never feel the thrill and fun of Quidditch
“Come on!!”
Hermione, who was watching the Quidditch game up close, changed her original incomprehension and cheered loudly for Harry.
After about 20 minutes of the game, Harry found the Golden Snitch and began to collide with the Slytherin Seeker.
Both sides refused to give in and fought hard for the Golden Snitch that symbolized victory.
“He caught the golden snitch!”
Suddenly, the host Lee Jordan in the audience shouted loudly:”Harry Potter caught the golden snitch and won 150 points!”
“Gryffindor wins!!”
As Madam Hooch blew the whistle to end the game, the Gryffindor audience erupted in a thunderous roar.
“Harry Potter!!”
“Porter wins! We win!”
“……”
Ivan slowly stood up, looking at Harry holding the Golden Snitch high on the field, smiling and applauding.
That night, Gryffindor students surrounded Harry.
After defeating Slytherin, not only the students, but even Professor McGonagall drank a glass of joy.
Professor Cat is a Quidditch fan, but Slytherin has won the Quidditch championship for 6 consecutive years, and she dreams of letting Gryffindor win the championship.
For this reason, McGonagall also bought Harry a Nimbus 2000
“Congratulations.”
After the celebration party, Ivan congratulated:”How do you feel?”
“This is the happiest moment of my life!”
Harry did not hide his joy. He said he would continue to work hard and help Gryffindor win the championship.
“That, Ivan.”
After being happy, Harry thought of something, and asked with some embarrassment:”I, I want to bring Ron to join, but I don’t know if he can help me.”…”
“Have you guys reconciled?”
Since Ron was hit by the Imperius Curse and stayed in the school hospital for nearly a week, Ivan had not paid attention to him.
However, during this period, Ron and Harry’s relationship seemed to have returned to the way it was before.
“
Harry: He wants to apologize to you.”
“Apologize?”
Ivan asked in confusion,”We don’t seem to have any grudges against each other, right?”
“There is no need to apologize or anything like that.”
Ivan refused very straightforwardly, saying,”As for joining the mysterious side, I will bring a new person here tomorrow, and we will test him together then.”
To join the mysterious side, one needs to pass the test of Ivan, the founder.
The test is not limited to magic talent.
In fact, compared to talent, Ivan cares more about the other person’s character and pursuit.
To paraphrase a famous saying of a certain Wang————What is your aspiration?
“Harry?”
After getting Ivan’s affirmative answer, Harry returned to the dormitory.
Ron was sitting there nervously. When he saw Harry coming back, he hurried forward to ask,”Did Ivan agree?”
“We’ll go together tomorrow night.”
Harry was simple-minded. He really regarded Ron as his best friend and was willing to share anything with him.
“Really?!”
Ron was overjoyed. He respected and feared Ivan, but more of it was admiration and envy.
He entered Hogwarts with Harry.
At the beginning, their magic levels were comparable, equally terrible.
However, since Harry received Ivan’s instruction, his spellcasting ability has improved by leaps and bounds.
Every time Ron asked Harry to teach magic, he couldn’t understand what Harry was saying.
Ron was completely unable to understand those concepts, as well as the spellcasting techniques that Harry said were specially tailored for him by Ivan.
So, watching the gap between Harry and himself grow larger and larger, Ron finally got anxious.
This is why Ron and Harry separated on Halloween and were cast under Voldemort’s Imperius Curse.
They had a quarrel, and Ron felt that Harry no longer looked down on him.
“Ivan is really amazing, he can see our problems at a glance.”
Harry highly praised Ivan:”But Ron, you have to prepare”
“Prepare?”
“To enter the mysterious side, you must pass Ivan’s test.”
“”Test!!”
Hearing the word”test”, Ron panicked.
He thought that with Harry’s relationship with Ivan, he could get him to join by just saying a few words.
“Uh…”
Harry was shocked by Ron’s reaction:”What’s wrong? What’s the problem?”
“I…”
Ron:”I’m just a little worried”
“Don’t worry, Ron.”
Harry knew Ivan’s character very well. He was strict most of the time just to motivate them:”You can definitely pass it!”
Perhaps because of the long-term contact, Harry could always understand some of Ivan’s hints and subtexts.
The so-called test was actually just a formality.
Harry was hesitating whether to tell Ron the truth.
But seeing the depression on Ron’s face, Harry hesitated. He had already discovered some problems with Ron.
Ron had…���Inferiority complex, this is a family problem in the Weasleys.
As the youngest brother, Ron’s things are all old, and he has almost never owned anything that is completely his.
But the problem is…
Harry: I am the same!
Before coming to the wizarding world, Harry’s life was much worse than Ron’s.
Not only did he not have parents, but his only family also treated him with cold violence.
To be honest, Harry couldn’t understand why Ron was jealous. If he really had to say envy, Harry would rather trade with Ron: If you like, I’ll give you my scar.
If you can choose, who would like to be the scarred head?
“But, didn’t I join Ivan’s study group a long time ago?”
This is what made Ron feel uncomfortable. He was already a member of the group, so why did he have to take a test before he could join?
“Ron, you…”
Harry didn’t know what to say. He wanted to tell his friend: This is the test Ivan gave you!
But Harry didn’t say it.
Harry felt a little uncomfortable now, as if there was a breath stuck in his chest and he couldn’t spit it out.
That’s because you quit first!
Harry regretted agreeing to Ron’s request.
At the beginning, Ivan treated everyone equally and never treated Ron unfairly. He taught and instructed everything he should teach.
However, Ron himself was lazy and playful, and didn’t want to stay with them.
Ivan was not angry about Ron’s choice.
It’s normal for children to be playful.
So when Harry came up, Ivan gave Ron a second chance without hesitation. He felt that Ron had figured it out. He could realize that he was What else can Ivan expect if he doesn’t know his own mistakes?
Ivan has always been particular about teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
For those like Hermione who take learning as fun, Ivan will give her a lot of homework.
Neville is diligent enough, but too dull.
So Ivan never gives Neville extra tasks, but just explains the simplest content to him again and again. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Harry is a practical person and can’t do anything with theories.
Ivan will teach him step by step and increase his proficiency in spells in actual combat.
Everyone’s learning tasks are not heavy.
In addition to learning the knowledge taught by Ivan, Harry has plenty of time to play with the little lions and receive team training.
Similarly, Ivan also has a special set of coping strategies for little wizards like Ron.[]
“Do you know what Ivan will be asked about in the exam?”
Ron looked at Harry expectantly. If it was Hermione who was here, the little witch would definitely refuse him sternly, telling him that he was cheating because he leaked the questions.
Unfortunately, Harry was not as rigid as Hermione.
“It’s progress.”
Harry didn’t say much, but he had already told Ron the purpose of the test.
What is progress?
It’s to see how motivated Ron is. What does he want to get?
Becoming stronger, learning more magic, or even just wanting to beat up Malfoy is fine.
“Do you really want Ron to come back?”
On the other side, Hermione also heard the conversation between Harry and Ivan.
“Do you care?”
“I hate him!”
Hermione never concealed her disgust for Ron. Every time she saw him, the little witch felt physically uncomfortable.
“Don’t be prejudiced against anyone.”
Ivan said this, but added:”Although Ron is not very good now”
“Phew.”
Hermione couldn’t help laughing and said,”You’re going even further, right?”
“What about the other person?”
If Ivan wants to bring in a new person, he will definitely notify the original members. Hermione was a little curious.
“You know the senior from Ravenclaw.”
“Clearwater?”
Hermione was a little surprised, and she hesitated,”But, the senior is already in the fifth grade.”
Can a fifth-year senior accept the guidance of a little wizard?
“Will she think we are childish?”
“If it’s just you two.”
Ivan gave Hermione a positive answer:”Yes”
“”Hey!”
Hermione patted Ivan in dissatisfaction. She was Miss Beaver who refused to admit defeat. How could she be outdone by Penelope?
“Okay, okay, I won’t dislike you.”
“Still saying!”
“Hehe.”
While playing with Hermione, Ivan told Hermione what Penelope had said to him, deleting the private information.
“I never thought about this.”
Hermione lowered her head and fell into deep thought.
Sooner or later, she would also face employment problems.
At that time, what should she do?
“Ivan, what do you think I can do in the future?”
“You…”
Ivan smiled and said,”I think you are very suitable to be the Minister of Magic”
“What?”
The little witch widened her eyes, with an expression of disbelief:”You mean, the Minister of Magic? The one from England?”
“Does Britain have a second Ministry of Magic?”
“Or, Hermione, are you planning to be the head of the Ministry of Magic all over the world? Let me think, it seems to be called the President of the International Confederation of Wizards, right?”
“How can that be possible!”
Hermione could see that Ivan was not joking, at least the Minister of Magic in front of him was serious:”I, Ivan, do you really think I can…”
“Yes, I believe you can do it.”
With the original book as a backing, Hermione’s ability is absolutely unquestionable.
But in the original book, she was able to become the Minister of Magic largely because of Harry, the savior who defeated Voldemort twice.
Without this achievement, even if Hermione wanted to compete for the position of Minister, it would probably take a long time.
“Do you still remember the dream of our team?”
“”Hmm.”
Hermione knew that Ivan was an ambitious man, but she didn’t hate him.
Ivan was not a madman like Voldemort, and he would not kill people over a disagreement.
He once told Hermione his attitude.
As long as the other party played tricks on him, Ivan would abide by the rules of the game and not overturn the table.
Ivan’s goal was to become the White King.
What is the White King?
Dumbledore once had the opportunity to become the White King.
Unfortunately, the old headmaster softened his heart.
Ivan was the old headmaster’s disciple, and he inherited the blood of Grindelwald and Dumbledore’s family.
So it makes sense for him to lead the dreams of the two when they were young, isn’t it?
“But that is still too far away.”
The most important thing for us now is to work hard to improve ourselves,” Ivan said.”
“Eastern wizards believe that practicing magic requires four things:”
“Sufficient material resources, like-minded friends, a large amount of magical knowledge, and an environment suitable for cultivation.”
Ivan translated the terms”wealth, companions, magic, and land” into a language that Hermione could understand:”How many requirements do you think we meet now?”
“Hmm…”
Hermione thought for a moment and said,”As for magical knowledge, with you here, Ivan, and so many books in Hogwarts, we will definitely not be short of it.”
“Like-minded partners.”
Hermione felt that although their number was small, whether it was Neville, Parvati, Harry or her, everyone could help Ivan in the future.
Especially the little witch herself, she felt that the Minister of Magic mentioned by Ivan might be a plan for her future.
If I can become the Minister of Magic, I should be able to help you, right?
Hermione secretly encouraged herself. She planned to read more books about the Ministry of Magic and the politics of the wizarding world, and prepare in advance for entering the Ministry of Magic.
“Just two o’clock?”
“Hmm.”
Hermione said:”Sufficient resources and a suitable environment for cultivation, I’m not sure how to judge”
“As for the environment, isn’t the Room of Requirement one of them?”
“That’s right!”
Hermione’s eyes lit up and she smiled,”The Room of Requirement can provide a variety of rooms, and it’s our secret base, so no one will disturb us.”
The”land” in the”land of wealth, companionship and law” generally refers to a cave with excellent feng shui.
However, Ivan and his team are wizards, and there is no such thing as a Qi Refiner in this world, so there is no need to be so demanding.
The Room of Requirement is very good.
As for the last resource……
“What we lack now is resources, right?”
Hermione knew that Ivan was very interested in alchemy, but due to insufficient materials, Ivan had no chance to make it.
Dumbledore was rich, but Ivan would not bother him for this matter.
One must be sensible.
Ivan already owed the old headmaster a big favor, and if he accepted the other party’s investment, he might really inherit the Dumbledore family business.
“This is exactly what I was going to tell you today.”
Ivan took Hermione’s hand and led her into his bedroom, then stood in front of the two-meter-high wardrobe that was close to the wall.
