Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 167 Loophole

"Yunkai, what kind of book is this?"

"Oh, a book of various deceptive magics."

Lu Yunkai answered casually.

Daphne, who was sitting next to him, nodded in understanding.

It's already afternoon.

Lu Yunkai couldn't figure it out. After such a long time, only two people stood up to sign up. What was it that kept this group of people here watching the excitement...

Well, maybe we are just waiting for those two confirmed players.

Krum and Cedric.

And finally, Cedric Diggory arrived.

His appearance caused huge applause from all around. As the most anticipated player of the host country, this kind of treatment is natural and deserved.

However, Cedric didn't interact much with the surrounding audience. He just laughed with the two friends around him while being pushed to the Goblet of Fire.

Then a note was thrown in.

disappear.

Registration ends.

Just leave.

It doesn't feel like a protagonist at all.

Lu Yunkai watched and complained silently in his heart.

Did this Cedric do something wrong? This Triwizard Tournament is a scoring competition. Do you know what is most important in this kind of competition?

Audience popularity! !

The audience will help you put pressure on the referee! Even if your actual performance is just a little bit worse, as long as you get roaring applause and cheers from the audience when you play, will the referee dare to give you a low score? ?

How can you not take the audience seriously!

Are these ten excellent NEWTS? She really looks like Irene...

Lu Yunkai complained about the poor witch in his heart again.

"Yunkai, do you want to try it again?"

Just when Lu Yun was happily complaining to Cedric, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.

Lu Yunkai turned his head and saw Parvati sitting behind him.

"What's wrong?"

"If you don't want to try, I will go back to rest and wait for the night." Parvati glanced at Daphne, who was looking strange next to Lu Yunkai, but continued: "If you also want to try, I will wait a little longer. ”

"...I have the idea of ​​​​trying it, but I don't have a specific plan yet. Are you...waiting for me here?" Lu Yunkai suddenly felt that the temperature around him had dropped a bit.

He glanced at Daphne from the corner of his eye.

Daphne smiled stiffly.

"Well, I'm curious about what you would do. Then I'll wait a little longer!" Parvati smiled and nodded as if she didn't realize Daphne's weirdness.

"……oh."

Lu Yunkai turned back and read a book.

"Then I'll go back to the dormitory first." Daphne suddenly said something.

"...What are you doing?" Lu Yunkai quickly turned his head and glanced at Daphne.

"There's nothing to see. What, who are you waiting for? Krum?"

Daphne squinted her eyes and looked at Lu Yunkai.

The meaning is actually quite obvious: you are not allowed to stay here any longer.

"I have to give it a try! Such a fun thing..." Lu Yunkai muttered, "Forget it, I'll try it now. If it doesn't work, let's go back to the dormitory together!"

"Why go back to the dormitory together?!" Daphne blushed.

Then she realized that she was the only one who had thought wrongly...

Ahem.

Lu Yunkai really didn't.

He simply stood up and bought a bottle of powerful confusion potion from the system. Then, he pulled Daphne around the onlookers' benches and came to the middle of the field.

"What are you doing?" Daphne felt a little shy and a little excited after being noticed by the people around her who were starting to become lively again.

"Here is this bottle of potion for you." Lu Yunkai took out another bottle of potion and put it into Daphne's hand. "After I come out of the circle, drink it immediately. Otherwise, God knows what I will do."

"……dangerous?"

"Not really, but I might make a fool of myself." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "You don't want to see me make a fool of myself, right?"

"Oh." Daphne took the potion in confusion, but nodded firmly.

"...Don't hold it so tight, or you may break it." Lu Yun smiled and patted Daphne's face, "I'll be right back."

After saying that, he took out the parchment from the space bag, tore off a small piece, and then wrote a line of words on it.

Then.

"Clean up!"

"Waterproof and moisture-proof!"

"Appear quickly!"

"Fade without a trace!"

Facing the parchment, the wand in Lu Yunkai's hand fired one spell after another as if it was free of charge (it was indeed free of charge).

He used almost every spell he knew except the one that would destroy the parchment.

In the end, the poor parchment looked like a small piece of broken stone, with no sign that Lu Yunkai had written his name on it.

And his action aroused the curiosity of almost everyone around him.

There was also a lot of laughter.

Is this kid crazy?

"Well, it should be almost done." Lu Yunkai looked at the parchment that was no longer parchment, and took it back into his hand with satisfaction. Then he pulled Daphne beside him several times and tried to stop him, but in the end she didn't speak. on the edge of the circle.

Open the potion in your hand and drink it.

Strange things happened.

Lu Yunkai seemed to have become hollow-eyed all of a sudden, and then his appearance seemed to begin to change.

For a moment...why do you look so much like Dumbledore?

Just when the audience stopped laughing because Lu Yunkai drank the potion, and then began to be amazed at his changes, Lu Yun started to move.

He stepped into the age circle in one step, and then threw the piece of paper in his hand into the Goblet of Fire.

The piece of paper, which was more like a stone, suddenly burned and disappeared.

Quiet.

Didn't fire off like twin brothers.

In the age circle, Lu Yunkai stood dumbly for ten seconds, and then with a crash, he fell backwards and fell to the ground.

"Yunkai!! Are you okay??" Daphne, who was stunned watching Lu Yunkai's movements, came back to her senses, hurriedly squatted beside him, helped him up, and poured the medicine in her hand into Lu Yunkai's In the mouth.

Soon.

"Huh... did the name strip fly out?"

Lu Yunkai spoke again.

With a smile on his face.

"...No." Daphne's face was full of worry, "What just happened to you?"

"Oh, I just deceived the age circle and the Goblet of Fire... Of course, I also deceived myself." Lu Yun explained with a smile, "If the name strip doesn't fly out, does that mean it's a success?"

"...Hmm." Daphne stretched out her hand to help Lu Yunkai stand up.

"No need! It's not that weak!" Lu Yunkai smiled and stood up, patting the soil behind him.

at this time.

There was a storm of thunderous applause and cheers all around.

"Ah!" Daphne came back to her senses.

Just now she was only worried about Lu Yunkai, and she forgot about this!

"Thank you everyone!" Lu Yun smiled and turned around to the audience who stood up and applauded. "Although it is unlikely that I will be selected, if the Goblet of Fire goes blind..."

As he spoke, he pointed at the broken wooden cup.

"...I hope everyone will support me more! My name is Lu Yunkai, a fourth-year student in Slytherin House at Hogwarts!"

"Lu Yunkai! Lu Yunkai! Lu Yunkai!!"

In the crowd watching the excitement, the Slytherin students who were familiar with Lu Yunkai began to shout his name one by one.

"Okay! Have you had enough limelight? Let's go!" Daphne said to Lu Yunkai with a red face and annoyance.

She was really not used to this kind of scene of being watched by everyone.

"Oh! I'm leaving then! Thank you everyone!" Lu Yunkai smiled and put his arm around Daphne's shoulders, and ran away from the hall.

Only the cheers and whistles were left behind.

"Yun Kai! Can you sell me two bottles of the potion you drank?"

"...Draco, it's not that I won't sell it to you. I'm afraid that if I sell it to you, your father will come back to settle the score with me."

"how come!!"

"You are different from me! If you sign up, you might be selected by the Goblet of Fire..."

"Then I have to sign up even more!"

"But the problem is that you have forgotten that the Triwizard Tournament was canceled because so many people died! Your life may not be in danger, but what if you are injured?" Lu Yunkai said seriously, "For the Malfoy family, no matter how many people die, A Triwizard Cup is nothing more than that, but your parents will never allow you to get hurt. Only then will he cause trouble to me!"

"……Fine."

When Malfoy heard what Lu Yunkai said, he sighed and left.

Lu Yunkai breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're getting better and better at flattering." Daphne, whose face still blushed, teased Lu Yun.

The scene where she was hugged by Lu Yunkai and returned to the lounge in public just now had an impact on her no less than the group of people there who were clapping and whistling crazily.

"What flattering is called coaxing a child!" Lu Yun gave Daphne a blank look, "I bet all my wealth that this loophole was left by Dumbledore. There are only a few dozen people eligible to register for Hogwarts, Dumbledore Lido only needs to set up the possible applicants. There is no need to set up any age groups. He does this magic without sending anyone to keep an eye on it. In his opinion, breaking through this age group is considered a special one. It's one of the conditions for having the right to sign up for this competition! If Draco buys medicine directly from me, would you believe that Filch rushes out of nowhere before he can throw his name strip into the Goblet of Fire? Drag him away?"

"I don't believe it." Daphne instinctively argued with Lu Yun, "How about you give me a bottle and I'll sign up to try it too?"

"Don't make trouble!! This competition may really be dangerous..."

"You won't choose me!" Daphne rolled her eyes at Lu Yunkai, "The Goblet of Fire is not stupid. It's not like you are a fool."

"What's wrong with me? I'm stupid! This is the second time I've defeated Dumbledore..."

"Are you stupid if you don't make money?" Daphne interrupted Lu Yunkai's bragging, "Even if Draco can sign up, will the Goblet of Fire choose him? Do you really think that the Goblet of Fire also selects people based on their surnames? And even if If Filch stopped him, how could he ask you to refund the money for the medicine? If you are not stupid, who is?"

"That's true when you say that." Lu Yunkai touched his chin, "But how much do you think I should pay him for these two bottles of medicine? He can't afford much cash..."

"You still have potions, right?"

"Yes, there is..."

"Give it to me, leave it alone! I'll help you sell it!"

"...You? Forget it! You are better at bargaining than I am!"

"It depends on who you are with! I'm not selling to Draco, I'm selling to... Pansy." Daphne suddenly laughed evilly.

"...Leave it to you. Remember, when you drink the potion, you must say silently in your heart, I am really not Dumbledore."

Lu Yunkai simply took out two bottles of medicine from the system.

****

"Lu Yun's registration was successful just now, did you know?"

"What he drank should be a powerful confusion potion, which made himself and the age group believe that he was you, and then successfully threw his name into the Goblet of Fire. As for how he deceived the Goblet of Fire, I don't know. . Don’t worry, I didn’t give him the powerful confounding potion.”

"Of course! For someone who can prepare the Skyfire Potion and the Powerful Curse-Removing Potion, the Powerful Confusion Potion should be no problem. But there is one thing you said wrong. He did not deceive the Goblet of Fire because there was no need. After all, the Goblet of Fire It’s a magic item that has been around for so long. It’s impossible for me to modify its origin... He probably thought of a way to modify the Goblet of Fire itself, so he took corresponding measures. Of course, it’s a bit redundant.”

"...Your Excellency, Principal, I don't think this is something that can be said with a smile."

Snape's face darkened.

Dumbledore, sitting opposite him, had a playful smile on his face.

"Severus, you really taught a good student. Tom is not even as thoughtful as him at his age! I suddenly began to feel that maybe it is not reasonable for the Ministry of Magic to cut the age of seventeen across the board. suggestions.”

"...You want to elect him as the representative of Hogwarts?"

"It's not my choice, it's the Goblet of Fire. Just like the Sorting Hat has the right to send students to any house it wants, this is something I can't interfere with. So I think the Ministry of Magic shouldn't interfere either." Dumbledore shook his head. Shaking his head, "Although Cedric is really a very, very good kid..."

"Digory is the most outstanding student at Hogwarts right now."

"But he is definitely not as good as Lu Yunkai in your eyes, right?" Dumbledore still smiled, "I just want to remind you that if he is really selected to participate in the competition, you have to do him a favor. I always feel that This year’s game is a little weird.”

"...You don't need to tell me, I understand." Snape nodded expressionlessly.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the principal's office.

"It should be Minister Bagman who is here. I think he may want me to explain the registration." Dumbledore had a smile on his face.

"Then please explain to him slowly." Snape nodded and exited the room.
