Hogwarts Bloodline

Chapter 18 Rejected Duel

The afternoon flight class was quickly passed by Ivan in a state of confusion. Fortunately, everything went smoothly afterwards. Ivan was the first student to complete the flight training. Ivan also took special care of Malfoy, and carefully reminded him to be careful when flying and never fall from the sky again. Mrs. Hoch, who was far away, saw Ivan's performance and her evaluation of Ivan increased a few points. The little wizards of Gryffindor and Slytherin have never been on good terms. In her opinion, it was rare for Ivan to put aside his prejudice and care about Malfoy so much. Malfoy was very angry and threatened to perform a difficult flying action to prove his skills. Unfortunately, he was stopped by Mrs. Hoch before he finished speaking. After all, Malfoy had a precedent of falling down. Mrs. Hoch was still a little worried that he would encounter an accident, and even did not allow Malfoy to fly on a broom in this class. [Ding, the flying class is over. Comprehensive evaluation of this class: Excellent. Evaluator: Rolanda Hodge. Award: 10 academic points] Ivan, who was walking in the corridor, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the final evaluation of the class. Even with the trouble caused by Malfoy, he still achieved his expected goal. Relatively speaking, Ron and Hermione were not in a good mood. They were both worried about Harry who was taken away by Professor McGonagall. Especially Hermione, she was still angry until now. As soon as the get out of class was over, she couldn't help but ran to Ivan and talked a lot. "I think we should tell Professor McGonagall and Mrs. Hodge the truth! Otherwise, what if Harry is expelled?" Ivan stopped and looked at Hermione. "No, Professor McGonagall won't expel Harry because of this little thing. Maybe it's because Harry flew well just now, so Professor McGonagall plans to let Harry join the Quidditch team." "To join the Quidditch team, you have to be at least a second grader!" Hermione corrected the mistake in Ivan's words. "There are always exceptions. Not every young wizard can fly as well as Harry when he first learns." Ivan said with a smile. Hermione thought about it and it seemed that this was really possible. Ron's eyes lit up and he discussed with the two the possibility of Harry joining the Quidditch team. If Harry could join, Ron felt that he should be able to do so as well. When the trio arrived at the Great Hall to enjoy dinner, Harry was already sitting there. Before they went over, Harry came up to them and couldn't wait to tell them that Professor McGonagall had asked him to be a seeker. Although Ivan had already given them a heads-up, they were still very surprised, especially Ron, who was extremely excited. "Harry, I didn't expect you to really join the Quidditch team. You may be the youngest seeker in the history of Hogwarts! I mean, are they still short of people? For example, a batsman or a goalkeeper?" Ron looked at Harry expectantly, hoping to hear some good news. "No, I heard from Wood that we have enough manpower." Harry shook his head awkwardly. He didn't understand why Ron was so excited. He just heard about the Quidditch match today and didn't know what was going on. "By the way, Ivan, what happened in the flying class today?" Harry turned to look at Ivan depressedly. "Didn't Malfoy take Neville's crystal ball? And then I chased him? When did it become us and Malfoy training together?" When Professor McGonagall took him away before, Harry was almost scared. He even thought that he would be expelled from Hogwarts and return to the dirty and narrow cupboard in his uncle's house. Fortunately, the situation was not as bad as he imagined. Ivan didn't mean to hide it. He told the story of how he attacked Malfoy with the petrification spell and made him embarrassed. "If I expose Malfoy again, I will have to be detained with him. Anyway, he has been taught a lesson, right?" Ivan spread his hands and said. Ron also exaggerated the fact that Malfoy was restricted from flying by Ivan in the flying class. Harry's depression was swept away and he laughed. Only Hermione still cared about the violation of school rules. Seeing that Ivan and the others were chatting happily, she turned around and left angrily. Ivan thought about it and still didn't say anything to keep her. Hermione's temper needs to change. Of course, it's not that it's bad to abide by the rules, but sometimes it's too rigid to completely trap yourself in these rules and regulations without leaving any room. Just like in the original book, Malfoy who caused trouble in the flying class basically did not receive any punishment. This is of course Harry's bad luck. Professor McGonagall did not give him a chance to explain, but even if Harry explained the reason clearly, Professor McGonagall would probably deduct the credits of the two and leave it at that. Malfoy would not lose anything at all. At least now Malfoy is scared, and I believe he will not dare to make trouble again in the short term. Unfortunately, the slap in the face came faster than Ivan imagined. Before Ivan finished his meal, Malfoy brought Crabbe and Goyle to pick a fight. Perhaps because of the two followers, Malfoy returned to his original arrogant appearance, but when he saw Ivan, he was a little angry. "Potter, are you eating your last meal? You will say goodbye here tomorrow and return to your Muggle world, right?" Malfoy mocked loudly. Ivan and Harry did not make any move after hearing this, but looked at Malfoy as if he was a fool. Ron was even thinking that if he told them about Harry becoming a seeker, Malfoy's expression would be very interesting. The indifferent attitude of Ivan and others made Malfoy somewhat uneasy, but he gritted his teeth and said what he should say. "Hals, if you have the guts, come to the trophy display room tonight. I want to duel with you!" However, what Malfoy did not expect was that Ivan shook his head firmly. "No!" What a joke, he was going to the restricted area tonight to receive the reward issued by the system, so how could he have time to play a duel game with Malfoy. Not to mention that in Ivan's remaining impression, Malfoy was simply planning to stand him up this time and then inform Filch to arrest him. He would be a fool to get involved in such a thing. "Hals, are you scared?" Malfoy sneered. "I'm not interested in dueling with a defeated opponent. It's a waste of time." Ivan glanced at Malfoy for a while, with a look of disinterest in the weakling, and said. "Come back when you have learned more advanced magic. Otherwise, if you fall down again, no one will save you."
