Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

The carnival fever swept across the entire Hogwarts. In order to celebrate Harry and his friends' good results in the competition, the young wizards spontaneously started a grand celebration.

The auditorium was quickly decorated as the center of the celebration, with long tables filled with various snacks and drinks brought from the kitchen.

Twin brothers Fred and George lit several firework wands they had developed themselves. Colorful beams of light exploded in the sky above the auditorium, forming patterns of giant dragons and golden eggs, which attracted bursts of exclamations.

The students gathered in a circle and sang songs of celebration, with laughter and applause mixed in the singing. With the floating magic lights, the whole scene was shrouded in a dreamy atmosphere.

Taking into account the mood and feelings of our international friends, the celebration in the auditorium ended quickly.

The young wizards moved to another venue and returned to their respective common rooms to continue their revelry.

The Gryffindor common room was almost packed to bursting. The tables and chairs were piled high with cakes. The sweet aroma of cream wafted in the air, and all kinds of pastries gave off tempting aromas.

Students passed jugs of pumpkin juice and butter beer around, spilling golden foam as the cups collided. The entire lounge was filled with joy and noise.

Several eye-catching new banners were hung high, on which were vividly painted the wonderful moments of the game with magic: the scene where Harry and his two companions bravely confronted the Hungarian Horntail, the moment when the blazing dragon fire was easily blocked, and the final scene where the three of them held up the golden egg and accepted the cheers of the audience.

The characters on the banner even smile and wave around, and the flames of the dragon leap on the canvas from time to time, making people seem to be back on the stadium.

Harry was surrounded by a crowd in front of the warm fireplace, and everyone was vying to congratulate him and clink their glasses with butterbeer.

Ron even pretended to host a "hero interview", which made everyone laugh.

"Harry, open the golden egg and let us see what's inside!"

"Yes, Harry, open it and let us broaden our horizons!"

Everyone was curious about the inside of the golden egg, and Harry was no exception.

As early as in the hall, he, Malfoy and Cedric wanted to open the golden egg, but considering the confidentiality, the three of them endured it.

The three of them also made a bet to see who could crack the secret of the golden egg first.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Harry picked up the golden egg and pried it open along an inconspicuous groove on it.

In an instant, horrific screams filled the entire lounge, scaring everyone.

"Merlin's golden egg, what on earth is this?" Seamus covered his ears, "It feels like there's a resentful female ghost locked up inside."

This miserable cry aroused everyone's interest. Everyone was talking about it. Some speculated that it was the sound of torture, while others agreed with Simo and guessed that the next level was related to ghosts.

Fred and George came over and said, "Come on, let's look at this from an alchemical perspective."

The two of them fiddled with it carefully and came to a conclusion under the expectant gaze of everyone.

"This is an ingenious phonograph device. It seems the key lies in the sound inside the golden egg."

"As for what the sound is, we don't know either. You still need to explore it yourself, Harry."

Seeing that their exploration was fruitless, the little wizards quickly forgot about the golden eggs and continued to party.

The next morning, Friday, the Hogwarts castle was still filled with a lively atmosphere, and all the young wizards were enthusiastically discussing the game from yesterday afternoon.

In view of the outstanding performances of Harry and the other two, Cedric and Malfoy also have their own fan clubs.

The earliest established Harry Potter fan club took this opportunity to expand rapidly, attracting many new members.

This resulted in Harry hearing people talking about his glorious deeds wherever he went, and seeing his classmates greeting him enthusiastically, asking for photos with him and autographs.

This feeling of being popular made Harry feel elated again. Of course, pain often coexists with happiness, and he had to get autographs and take photos again and again.

Although his arms were sore from exhaustion, he was generally very happy.

However, this wonderful mood did not last long, because in Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class that afternoon, she solemnly announced the Christmas ball to the students.

"The ball is a tradition of the Triwizard Tournament. It is also a great opportunity for us to enhance our relationships and have friendly exchanges with our foreign guests."

"All students in grade 4 and above can participate. Of course, you can also invite students from lower grades as dance partners."

The students' whispers gradually turned into low laughter of excitement, but Professor McGonagall ignored the little movements and continued.

"The dance will be held in the auditorium at 8 o'clock on Christmas evening and end promptly at midnight. All participating students must wear formal dress robes."

"I will post the details of the dance on the bulletin board after class, please check it out."

"Potter," Professor McGonagall looked at Harry, "the Yule Ball will be opened by the warriors with their partners, so remember to find a partner."

Harry stared at Professor McGonagall in amazement, feeling a little overwhelmed for a moment.

I can't dance at all!

Besides, inviting a girl to the Christmas ball is an impossible task.

After all, he had barely spoken a word to any girl other than Hermione since the first day he entered Hogwarts.

To be honest, he would rather fight the dragon again than do such an embarrassing thing.

What's more, even if I invite a dance partner, I don't have any suitable person.

There is no need to mention Qiu Zhang, he must be with Cedric.

Who should I invite?

Should we invite Hermione?

Forget it, we are too familiar with each other. I should consider someone else.

Professor McGonagall's announcement was like a bomb, instantly detonating the already lively atmosphere in Hogwarts Castle and pushing everyone's emotions to another climax!

Words like Christmas dance, inviting dance partners, and enhancing relationships caused a strong reaction among the eligible boys. They either whispered about their goals or secretly looked at the girls they liked.

The bold ones are already thinking about how to come up with a surprise and make the invitation unique.

Those who are shy, on the other hand, are very nervous and even struggle with the first words they say.

On the other hand, the little witches were just as enthusiastic.

They gathered in groups of three or five, chattering about every detail of the ball, such as how to choose a fashionable dress and how to dress elegantly without losing personality.

As for a dance partner, of course I hope to have an enviable invitation, preferably one that is both romantic and unexpected.

Of course, it would be even better if those warriors invited me.

It can be said that Professor McGonagall's announcement not only made this ancient magic castle more lively, but also heated up the atmosphere of the entire Christmas season.

All this had nothing to do with Harry for the time being. On Saturday night, he and Malfoy gathered again in Sebastian's office to prepare for today's brain-blocking practice.
