Hogwarts: I am Harry's eldest cousin

It is equivalent to signing a life and death contract. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in the hands of God. It all depends on personal efforts. The magical creatures, plants, etc. defeated by the contestants in the competition are personal trophies and belong to the contestants themselves.

To describe it simply, it is similar to the Chunin Exam chapter in "Naruto", where the ninjas sign a life and death contract and enter the Forest of Death, but as long as the ninjas can kill and tame the animals, plants, and insects in it, they all become the ninjas' trophies and can be eaten or killed and taken away.

"This, this." Bagman talked for a long time but couldn't make sense of it, because Dudley was right, that was indeed the content of the Goblet of Fire Contract, but they were not originally prepared to abide by it.

The last Triwizard Tournament was several centuries ago. The contestants who took part in it are no longer with us, and the teachers and students who participated have also passed away one after another. The Ministry of Magic has nowhere to consult when it holds the tournament this time.

"So there is no doubt that the four fire dragons are my trophies."

Dudley's words carried an unquestionable tone.

Bagman said weakly, "But that's the Ministry of Magic's concession."

Although he was the Director of the Ministry of Magic, Bagman acted like a subordinate in front of Dudley, who was still a student. He never showed such an expression even when facing Fudge.

Chapter 294 That's Mr. Dursley's Trophy

"Mr. Bagman, I don't think that has anything to do with me. To be more precise, it's not the Ministry of Magic concession, but the Department of Magical Games and Sports concession."

A trace of disdain flashed across Dudley's face. "The Triwizard Tournament is organized by the Department of Magical Games and Sports, and the ticket money goes into the Department's pockets. I have some friends in the Ministry of Magic, so I'm well-informed and know some things very well."

After saying this, he waved his hand and the curse fell on the Romanian dragon tamers who were lying there.

"My ears are blocked!"

The intention of doing this is very obvious, and I don't want others to hear what I say next.

"One more thing, Mr. Bagman. You used my name to run the gambling project. You made a lot of Galleons just from the first game, right? I haven't investigated your responsibility in this matter."

Bagman opened a handicap privately under the banner of the Four Warriors. In the first match of today, no matter if you bet on Harry, Fleur, or even Viktor to win, or a draw, you would lose everything.

The only way to make money is to buy the handicap of Dali's victory, but unfortunately the odds are very small and almost no one buys it.

Bagman made a lot of money this time, so he was so excited when the results were announced just now.

No wizard would turn down a pair of glittering Galleons.

"Mr. Bagman, I can always report you to the Wizengamot if I want. Believe me, I know them well."

Bagman broke out in a cold sweat. He had never expected that all his actions had been seen through. If this matter were exposed and brought to the Wizengamot, he would definitely be sent to Azkaban. So he immediately changed his tone to pleading and said, "No, you can't."

"That depends on how you cooperate, Mr. Bagman. By the way, do you still think that the four dragons belong to other people?"

"No, that belongs to you, Mr. Dursley."

Bagman's change of attitude was so rapid that it was jaw-dropping.

"That Romanian wizard"

"Just let me handle it."

Dudley was not surprised by this. Compared with a few dragons, it was obviously more important for him not to go to Azkaban.

I don't know what price Bagman paid in the end, but he handled the situation very well. After that, the Romanian dragon-taming wizards never came back to Dudley again.

Dudley captured four dragons.

Of course, it was finally placed in the Forbidden Forest, together with Charizard, My Little Pony and others.

Five adult fire dragons, an adult unicorn and a ripe thousand-year-old basilisk, this combination can form an army of magical beasts.

Once Dudley's magical beast taming skills are upgraded to the next level, he will be able to tame top-notch beasts like dragons and basilisks. By then, the magical creatures alone will be enough to give the Death Eaters a hard time.

The legendary Mother of Dragons who rules the Seven Kingdoms, is the Protector of the Realm, is Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, is Breaker of Chains, is Queen of Meereen, is Princess of Dragonstone, is the Unburnt, is Missa, and is the Silver Queen. She only has three dragons, but she has five.

----

The Triwizard Tournament was just a small episode in Dudley's life at Hogwarts. The first game did not bring any substantial changes, except that everyone looked at Dudley with more respect.

The other warriors were very distressed during this period, each holding a golden egg in their hands, trying to solve the puzzle inside. Although Dudley was the only warrior to win the golden egg, it was eventually shared among the other warriors, after all, the golden egg was the key clue for the second game.

When the golden egg is opened, it will make a scream that makes your scalp tingle. It is impossible to tell what the sound is, let alone find the answer.

Of course this only applies to ordinary wizards.

Dudley, who knew the magical language of animals, heard something completely different from what others heard after opening the golden egg. He heard a beautiful mermaid song.

"Weasley! Could you please pay attention for a moment?"

In the Transfiguration class, Ron was reprimanded mercilessly by Professor McGonagall for being absent-minded.

"Professor, could you please stop staring at me?"

Ron said somewhat depressedly, I swear to God, this was the first time he was distracted today, and he was caught just for a moment.

"You know I'm watching you, so why can't you listen carefully?" Professor McGonagall glared at Ron and said, "Whenever you can perform Transfiguration spells like Mr. Dursley did in the first game, I will stop watching you."

Dudley's performance in the first game made Professor McGonagall both happy and depressed. She was happy because Dudley was a student she taught, but she was depressed because the Transfiguration spell was Gryffindor's signature magic, but it was surpassed by Slytherin.

There were only a few Gryffindor students who were good at Transfiguration, so they were all kept under close watch. Except for Ron, Harry and Hermione were often watched by Professor McGonagall, but they were serious in class.

As for Neville, we can only say that his talent is not in the Transfiguration spell.

After the Transfiguration spell was over, Ron, feeling depressed, came to the restaurant. Looking at the chicken legs covered with jam and honey on the table, he really had no appetite at all.

Just terrible.

Ron lay on the dining table thinking gloomily.

However, what made him even more depressed was yet to come. His mother, Mrs. Weasley, sent him a package.

There was a 'skirt' inside.

Without thinking, Ron picked up his skirt and walked to where his sister Ginny was.

"I think mom must have sent it to the wrong address. This is for you."

"I don't want it, it's too ugly."

Ginny looked at her with disdain, rejection written all over her face.

"Mrs. Weasley may not have sent it to the wrong place." Neville spoke at this time, his eyes fixed on the "skirt" in Ron's hand: "That is really for you, I saw it in my old wardrobe."

Unfortunately, Ron interrupted Neville before he could finish.

"So why did my mom send me a dress? And such a tattered one at that."

Ron's head was full of question marks. He shook the "skirt" in his hand as he spoke. The combination of dark red and brown looked so, uh, weird.

Does his mother want him to wear women's clothes?

Is it so exciting?

"That's not a skirt, it's a dress. Although it's from the early medieval period. People in that period liked this style."

Hermione provided some knowledge to the uneducated Ron.

"In other words, the 'dress' in your hand may be older than all of us here combined."

Ron looked at the antique in his hand and fell into deep thought.

He really wanted to ask if there was anyone willing to buy it, and he could sell it at a low price.

"So. What do you want me to do with this thing?"

Soon, someone gave him the answer.

In the afternoon Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall stood on the stage and said, "Be quiet, everyone."

"Before class starts, I have something to announce."

Chapter 295 Mr. Moody, do you really have nothing else to teach me?

"The Christmas ball is a traditional event of the Triwizard Tournament. We will spend a comfortable night with our guests on Christmas Eve. The ball is only open to students in the fourth grade and above. But if you wish, you can invite a lower grade student."

"Commissioned by Headmaster Dumbledore, I will provide basic dance etiquette instruction in the Great Hall every Thursday afternoon. I don't want any of you to do anything that would damage Hogwarts, so everyone must be present."

"By the way, every warrior needs a partner, and the Yule Ball is opened by the warriors."

Professor McGonagall said the last sentence while looking at Harry. Well, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff took this Transfiguration class together.

In just one noon, the news that a Christmas ball would be held spread throughout Hogwarts.

Especially since as a warrior he was responsible for starting the dance, almost all the little witches, both those of appropriate age and those not, set their eyes on Harry.

I hope to be his dance partner.

If it weren't for the girl's modesty, she would have probably been kidnapped.

As for why it wasn't Mr. Dursley? How dare you compete with the 'Gryffindor Lioness' for someone?

What's more, Mr. Dursley invited Miss Granger to the ball in public at the first opportunity, and the latter agreed.

As the days passed, the weather gradually turned colder, and after summer and autumn, winter came.

The little witches accepted the invitation one after another, and everyone was preparing for the Christmas ball.

Except for Dudley, he continued to study regularly every day and asked Professor Moody for advice whenever he had time. He didn't even participate in Professor McGonagall's dance guidance, because there was a dance level 5 quietly lying in his life skill column.

The Christmas dance is getting closer and closer, and many fourth-grade wizards have invited dance partners. Of course, there are still some wizards who are still single.

such as:

"Harry, have you decided who to invite?" Dudley asked during their morning exercise.

Harry shook his head and told him to go and invite a dance partner. He would rather fight a dragon.

"The one named Qiu Zhang is not suitable for you. You can consider changing to another one."

Perhaps because of too many bad experiences in the past, Qiu Zhang would hide far away from Harry whenever he saw him. Even when Gryffindor and Ravenclaw were in the same class, he would hide in the corner farthest from Harry. It was basically impossible for the two of them to be together.

To be fair, Dudley felt that Pansy or Daphne were both good choices. Although the former had a slightly sunken face, she was still a beauty overall. The latter not only had a good appearance, but also had a figure that was beginning to take shape. Choosing her would at least not mistreat the child.

"We have to hurry up. There aren't many people left now." Ron nodded in agreement.

"You still have the mood to criticize others, romantic." Draco rolled his eyes at him: "With Harry's fame, it would be easy for him to find a dance partner, and you are the one who makes people most worried. How can you not be anxious at all?"

Ron glared at him unconvincedly: "Didn't you invite a dance partner either?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Rorschach. I found a suitable partner a week ago."

Ron became curious when he heard this.

"Who?"

"Astoria Greengrass, she's a year younger than us, and she's a very cute girl."

When Draco mentioned Astoria, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose slightly.

"I'll tell you one more thing. Neville has also found his dance partner, the new member who joined the discipline group not long ago, Miss Luna Lovegood."

"Oh, I just said that the two of them are often together in secret."

Ron gossiped unconsciously, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Draco glared at the unconscious Mr. Ronald (Ron's full name) with some disappointment.

"Even Crabbe and Goyle found partners yesterday."

"!!!"

At this time Ron finally reacted. A look of surprise appeared on his face. He quickly grabbed Draco's shoulders. Just when Draco thought he had finally figured it out and wanted to find a dance partner, he heard Ron say something malicious.

"Tell me quickly, are the ones who like them two fat girls? Are there witches of that weight in Hogwarts?"

"."

There's no hope. I'm tired. Let it be what it is.

------

Night, near the Forbidden Forest.

"Harry, Dursley, you have learned a lot of dark spells from me during this time, and you can also master the Sharpfire Curse freely."

Since the day they learned the Fiery Curse, the two of them often came to Moody for extra lessons.

Normally speaking, it would take a normal wizard three to five years to master the Fiendfyre, but not only did the two of them do it within half a year, they also almost emptied Moody's store of magical knowledge.

The learning speed was so fast that it was unbelievable, especially Dudley. If Harry's progress was still visible to the naked eye, then even Moody couldn't see how far Dudley had reached. Especially after knowing the result of Dudley's first game, Moody unconsciously developed a little fear of Dudley.
