Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 554 Amosta’s Influence
When Professor Dumbledore reminded them, the young wizards' eyes finally found their target. Above the Forbidden Forest, a black spot loomed in the void with the pure white snowy mountains as the background.People discovered that thing very quickly. Almost every time they blinked, the black spot became larger.

"what is that!"

Hufflepuff's Justin Finch-Fletchley screamed excitedly,

"Is it an oversized flying carpet?"

Hermione showed a rather disapproving expression. Normally, she would have told Justin that flying carpets were illegal means of transportation in the UK, but this occasion was unusual and she said nothing.

The little wizards watched helplessly as the huge thing passed through the dark blue sky at an extremely fast speed and approached them. As the thing became clearer and clearer, they could vaguely hear the breathtaking roar coming from the air. Dennis Creevey said it was like a house coming down on them.

The truth was very close to what Dennis said. When the black behemoth passed by Hagrid's roof, everyone could see it clearly. It was a huge pink-blue carriage flying with twelve horses. It was pulled into the sky by winged flying horses. They were all silver-maned horses, each one as big as an elephant!
In order to offset the powerful momentum brought by the flying speed, the carriage made an earth-shattering noise when it landed. Many young wizards were frightened and screamed. However, Professor McGonagall immediately ordered the young wizards to shut up and not to speak in front of the guests. It was rude, but he was so surprised that his hat was tilted.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, a hundred-ten-foot-long brake mark appeared on the green grassy field. Mr. Filch, the castle administrator, immediately paled when he saw it.

When Mrs. Maxim got out of the car, Amosta heard the unexpected exclamations from the little wizards behind him. They obviously didn't expect that besides trolls, there are other people with heights in the world. Someone who can compete with Hagrid.

Led by the professors, a burst of fierce applause erupted outside the castle. This made the face of the tall woman who walked into the foyer relax and smiled gracefully. She looked towards Professor Dumbledore. Walk up to Professor Brain and hold out a hand with many sparkling jewels.

Although Dumbledore was also tall, he barely bent down when he kissed the hand, and Professor Braine even stood on tiptoe.

In such an occasion, Dumbledore must act as the face of Hogwarts. Therefore, after the polite greetings, Amosta took a half step back with a smile and stood beside Dumbledore, but After Mrs. Maxim exchanged a few words with Dumbledore, she had no intention of ending it. Her big, dark, watery eyes stared at Amosta.
"I heard about the horrific attack at Beauxbatons, Blaine—"

Madame Maxime said in a low voice,

"Several of my students were also present at the time. They described the scene that night to me after they came back. Your magic power is awesome, Blaine-"

There was silence on the field, and the little wizards listened to their conversation with their ears pricked up. Many people raised their chins proudly after hearing Beauxbatons' astonishingly tall headmistress paying respect to Professor Brain.

"yes--"

Amosta was a little surprised that Mrs. Maxim would mention this on such an occasion. He blinked in slight surprise, then smiled and said,

"You already saw that in Paris, didn't you, madam, that I am very good at bluffing."

"Oh, no!"

Some girls at Hogwarts muttered dissatisfiedly.

But Dumbledore and Madame Maxime both laughed, and Madam Maxime looked satisfied. She stepped aside, exposing Beauxbatons' visiting little wizards to everyone's sight.

"They are so particular!"

Lavender exclaimed with envy, because she discovered that the school uniforms of this group of Beauxbatons students were all made of silk. This luxurious aristocratic temperament was in sharp contrast to the little wizards of Hogwarts.

"Yeah, compared to them, we don't really look good!"

Parvati looked at Professor McGonagall resentfully, because Professor McGonagall had just ordered her to take away the butterfly hairpin from her head, which was the only decoration on her body.

"It's so stupid—"

Hermione whispered in a rather disdainful tone. She didn't know if she was talking about Lavender and Parvati, or the group of Beauxbatons students.

Harry also had to admit that the costumes of the visiting young wizards from Beauxbatons looked glamorous, but obviously a little out of place, because they couldn't possibly stuff a woolen sweater under the silk dress-like uniforms.The temperature on the Hogwarts campus at the end of October will not considerately take care of your wish to express yourself. Beauxbatons' little wizards were shivering from the cold, and several of them wrapped themselves in silk scarves to resist the cold. Strictly. "Mr. Blaine!"

Just when the little wizards at Hogwarts were discussing the costumes of the Beauxbatons students, the little witch headed by them came out from behind their principal and suddenly pulled off her headscarf to reveal her true face, and her waterfall-like hair also It suddenly drooped down.On the dim field, a silver light flashed away.

hiss--
The Hogwarts square suddenly erupted with a sound of air-conditioning. Many students stared at the graceful female student in disbelief, their eyes almost bulging out of their sockets!

"It's amazing--"

Ron said in a hoarse, surprised voice,

"This girl... Hey, she's really extraordinary!"

"Ah, it's you, Miss Delacour -" Amosta pursed her lips and smiled, "Welcome to Hogwarts."

Perhaps because she was dissatisfied with Amosta's cold and official greeting, Fleur, who had attracted countless gazes, moved her straight, shiny nose in dissatisfaction.

"Let's catch up on old times later, Fleur——"

Madame Maxime lovingly interrupted what Fleur was about to say.

Maybe the young wizards at Hogwarts see Professor Braine every day, so they don't have a deep understanding of his current status in the wizarding world, but the young wizards at Beauxbatons are not the same thing.The duel of the century on the night of the Quidditch final had propelled Amosta Braine to legendary status.

Madame Maxime led her students into the foyer first. Every Beauxbatons who passed by Professor Blaine looked at him with awe and curiosity. The little wizards who were wrapped in turbans all took off their turbans. So as not to appear disrespectful enough.

And all the Hogwarts students who witnessed this scene felt proud.

"If Dumbledore had any sense -" Draco snickered secretly in the Slytherin square, "he would step down now."

Draco's words aroused a lot of agreement among the Slytherins. Every Slytherin student wished that Dumbledore would get out of the house and let Professor Blaine, who was born in Slytherin, take the stage.

"Quiet--"

Severus Snape, standing behind the Slytherin square, listened to the discussions of the students in his college, shook a few strands of hair on his forehead, and said lazily, but there was a command in his tone. Almost non-existent.

It wasn't until Mrs. Maxim and her students disappeared from sight that Ron reluctantly looked away. Many boys sighed in disappointment like him. Now, they have to wait for Durmstrang's people to arrive. , people began to talk about whether Durmstrang's people would use fire dragons to pull carriages.

They stood there waiting for Durmstrang's people to arrive. The weather was so cold that even the little Hogwarts wizards wearing thick cloaks were shivering from the cold. The little wizards gradually lost interest in the discussion and just hoped Able to welcome guests as quickly as possible.

Harry looked at the Quidditch pitch with a little longing. Generally speaking, he should go to the Quidditch pitch to complete his daily running exercises at this time. Especially in such a cold weather, he was even more eager to go exercise. Warm yourself up instead of standing here stupidly.

"Mrs. Maxim looks the same as she did a few months ago, and the little wizard she brought is also very energetic——"

Amosta said softly.

"I agree with you, Amosta—"

Dumbledore said with a gentle smile.
