Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny
Chapter 44 Year-end Banquet
"Harry's awake, are you going to see him?" Michelle asked Nidia. Recently, she often stayed in the library with Nidia. Of course, she didn't come here to read, just at this time. At this stage, few people come to the library anymore. It is a convenient place for them to talk about topics that cannot be heard by others.
"I don't know, I actually want to see how he is doing." Ever since Hermione told Nydia the news that Harry had woken up in the morning, she had been struggling.
"You are worried that the better the relationship is now, the more sad they will be when they know your identity in the future, right? To be honest, Harry may be different from others. You know that his parents were killed by a mysterious person. You want him It might be difficult to accept it," Michelle said worriedly.
"I know, and if Voldemort really makes a comeback one day, it will be difficult for my life experience to be concealed anymore." Nidia sighed and said.
"Ugh! I hope it won't happen one day, and please don't mention his name again. I feel uncomfortable all over."
"Sorry, I'll keep an eye out."
"If you really want to go, I can accompany you there, just to have a quick look and confirm if he is okay." Michelle knew that Nydia would be worried all the time if she was not sure that Harry was okay.
"You always understand what I'm thinking." Nitya closed the book in her hand, "Let's go take a look and leave after making sure he's fine."
The two packed up their things and got up, preparing to go to the hospital to see Harry. Along the way, Nydia was thinking about what would be appropriate to say after seeing Harry. Her father was right, she should keep a distance from Harry. But soon Nydia found that she no longer needed to think about what she should and shouldn't say, because just when they walked near the hospital, they bumped into Hermione and Ron who had come out from the hospital to visit Harry. , they told her that Madam Pomfrey kicked them out because Harry needed to rest, so Nydia and Michelle didn't have to go. They couldn't see Harry with Madam Pomfrey around.
Nydia learned the following situation from Hermione and Ron. The Philosopher's Stone will be destroyed. Indeed, this is the only way to ensure that no one will have any more ideas about it, whether it is turning stones into gold or immortality. The temptations of people are really too great. Harry was not seriously injured, but was a little weak and needed a good rest. After knowing this, Nydia followed everyone back to the Gryffindor lounge with peace of mind.
The next night is the year-end banquet. This will be the last banquet of this semester. The scores of the four houses have been calculated. The winner of the House Cup is Slytherin House. This is their consecutive victory. Winning the Academy Cup for the seventh time, the entire auditorium was decorated with green and silver representing Slytherin. On the wall behind the guest seat, a huge banner with a Slytherin snake hung on it.
Harry rushed over at the last minute before the banquet started. He nodded and smiled at Nydia and sat in the middle seat between Hermione and Ron. Dumbledore arrived in the auditorium a moment later, and the noise in the auditorium gradually subsided.
After a brief speech, Dumbledore began to announce the specific scores of each house. Gryffindor was at the bottom with only 302 points, while Slytherin, who was first, had 472 points. Gryffindor was over a hundred points higher.
After the scores were announced, the Slytherin table erupted into thunderous cheers and stomps. Nydia saw Draco winking at her proudly, as if to say that Nydia did not choose to be in Slytherin. What an unwise decision it was to go to Forestry College. In fact, Nydia is really not in a good mood right now, but she doesn't feel that she chose the wrong house, but she blames herself for deducting 50 points for Gryffindor.
"Yes, yes, the performance is good." Dumbledore said again, "However, the recent events must also be taken into account."
The auditorium became very quiet, and the smiles of the Slytherin students also faded a little.
Dumbledore unexpectedly added a series of points to Gryffindor, first to Ron, who received fifty points for winning the most exciting game of chess at Hogwarts in many years; and then to Hermione, She received fifty points for calmly conducting logical reasoning in the face of the fire; and then there was Harry, who received sixty points for showing fearless courage and extraordinary courage. To Neville's surprise, he got ten extra points for daring to stand up for himself in front of his friends.
The extra points made the noise at the scene deafening. Those who were shouting until their voices were hoarse while calculating the points in their minds were surprised to find that Gryffindor had now been evenly divided with Slytherin, four hundred and seventy. Two points. How much everyone hopes that Dumbledore can give one of them one more point! Just one point is fine.
Dumbledore raised a hand. The auditorium gradually became quiet again.
"There are many types of courage," Dumbledore smiled, his eyes suddenly looking towards Nydia, "It is courage to dare to challenge the strong, and it is also courage to know how to assess the situation, admit one's shortcomings and seek effective help. and intelligence, so I would like to award Miss Nydia Field ten points.”
Nitia was stunned. The cheers in the whole hall were getting louder and louder. Although Nitia felt that Dumbledore's series of extra points were somewhat biased, who cares? These points made Gryffindor win the College Cup. Although they could not make up for the 50 points deducted, these 10 points were even more precious at this moment.
Compared with the cheers of the other three colleges, Slytherin College was very quiet at this moment. Many of them had not yet reacted to the sudden loss of the College Cup. Nitia noticed that Draco's face was very ugly now, which was in sharp contrast to his smug expression just now. Professor Snape, who was sitting on the podium, also had a very ugly expression. He was clapping like other teachers, but from his expression of forbearance, it can be seen that he was extremely unwilling to accept this result. I wonder if he would choose to help if he knew in advance that his help would make his college lose the College Cup!
"That means," Dumbledore had to shout loudly to be heard over the thunderous cheers, "we need to make some small changes to the decorations here." He clapped his hands, and immediately, the green hanging ribbons turned bright red, and the silver turned gold; the huge Slytherin snake disappeared, replaced by a majestic Gryffindor lion. Nytia was in a very good mood now, because others began to smile at her again, and she felt that this was the happiest night she had had in the past year.
