Chapter 170 Small Punishment
"Harry, are you asking me for something?"
Get out of some supporters, Harry signaled to the corner next to him.
"how?"
"The first competition was a fire dragon, one head for each person."
Harry didn't go around in circles and directly shared the information he had just obtained with Ethan. Ethan knew that he would learn the news from Ron, and then he saw the fire dragons relatively close with his invisible cloak.
"Thank you, Harry."
Just as the two were talking, Ethan noticed that someone was staring at him and Harry Potter in secret, probably the crazy-eyed man Moody, who was pretended by Barty Crouch.
He wanted to make sure Harry Potter could win the championship in this triple tournament and touched the winning trophy that had been transformed into a door key, so when the content of the competition had been determined, he began to think about how to help Harry win.
So from his point of view, Harry's behavior of sharing intelligence with his competitors was so depressed.
"You are welcome."
Compared to Cedric Digory, Harry Potter and Ethan have a better relationship. Both sides also have common friends. Although Ethan is a Slytherin student, he never is arrogant or ridiculed others casually. In addition, his identity from an ordinary family also made Harry feel more intimate. After all, before coming to Hogwarts, he was still in contact with ordinary people the most.
It was also the appearance of Ethan that changed Harry Potter's perception of Slytherin Academy: Slytherin is not all bad wizards.
I don't know what impact this will have on the next thing, but that's not something Ethan cares about. Now he has to think about how to deal with the unlucky guys on the other side. Compared with his competitors who were worried that he would draw a difficult Fire Dragon, what Ethan had to worry about was how to defeat the Fire Dragon "normal".
"You can't take all your strength, right?"
"Should...can't?"
If you make every effort, let alone a fire dragon, you won’t be able to save the entire arena, or even the entire Hogwarts.
Even if I don’t use magic to fight with hand-to-hand combat, Ethan went up to beat a fire dragon with bare hands, and the fire dragon was so stunning that he got the golden egg after he was full of money.
"I'm curious how you'll deal with that big guy then."
"It's just a few more curses."
Skaha, who made his hair into two braids and naturally hung on both sides, took out a newspaper from somewhere. This is the Daily Prophet, and it is considered the most influential newspaper in the magic world.
However, Ethan's impression of this newspaper was not very good, so when Rita Skit, a special correspondent of the Prophet Daily, wanted to conduct an exclusive interview with several contestants, Ethan ignored her at all.
"What do you think about the content above?"
Ethan turned his head and glanced. The female reporter named Rita Skit reported on Fleur Delakur and Viktor Krum. He just briefly introduced the two players, nothing special.
The content about Harry Potter is quite messy, just making up.
As for himself... Ethan found that his description could be written seven more books to make a long story, and each book could be made into a large-scale production movie with upper, middle and lower trilogy.
Ethan Arendale, a young wizard from an ordinary family, unexpectedly entered the world of wizards. Because of his ordinary family background, he was excluded by his classmates after entering Slytherin Academy. And Ethan Arendale, who was determined to prove himself, made the most important and perhaps the stupidest decision in his life: even if he cheated, he had to participate in the Triple Championship.
Skaha blinked her "cute" big eyes, looking at Ethan, "Is this really the case?"
Of course, this is not the case. Others don’t know whether Skaha still knows it? She just teased herself on purpose.
Ethan would not pay attention to his reports in a "street tabloid", and no one in the academy would be so stupid that he would run to him to ask for the authenticity of this thing.
The only people who could do such things were Draco Malfoy, but Malfoy had long been frightened by Ethan's strength and would not suddenly come to seek abuse with a traitor.
"How are you going to deal with her?"
Ethan touched his chin... It seemed a bit unreasonable to kill him directly, but he still had to give him an appropriate lesson.
You can't just give me a lesson in a confused manner, so that this guy knows why and who is punishing her.
"Wait until next time we meet."
Anyway, she will appear again soon, because this press conference will go to the scene of the Triple Championship to find news, and even break into the contestants' lounge, filming the scene where Hermione comforted Harry, fabricating the scandal between Hermione and Harry Potter, and then fabricating the scandal between Hermione and Victor Clum.
This is the street tabloid. Ethan really feels that the magic world is beyond help. The newspapers that claim to be the greatest influence are just this virtue?
Not long after learning from Harry that the first competition was against the Fire Dragon, the official match day was ushered in.
The four contestants were gathered together in advance, and then waited and rested in the tent dedicated to the contestants. When they went out from the door next to them, they soon walked into the competition venue, where they could enjoy the sight and cheers of countless people, provided that they were not sprayed to death by the fire dragon on the opposite side.
When Ethan came in, Fleur and Victor were already waiting inside. After seeing Ethan coming, they simply nodded and said hello.
Now they are all opponents, and the dangerous game is about to begin. Even if you want to be friends, you are not in that mood now.
Not long after, Harry also came, and the four contestants were waiting quietly here. They could hear the noises made by the audience entering the venue, and there was not much time left before the game began.
At this moment, Harry, who was pacing back and forth slightly nervously, heard something. He walked aside and lifted the curtain and saw Hermione.
"Here you come!"
Ethan knew that the next thing was Hermione who was worried that Harry would come to visit him and hug Harry, but the reporter took a picture.
But I didn't expect that there was something I had about it?
Hermione hugged Harry and turned around and gave Ethan a hug. Ethan then realized that what Hermione was worried about now was not Harry alone.
"Are you worried about me?"
"Of course I'm worried about you, but you have to face a fire dragon. Don't you know how dangerous that is?"
“…”
Ethan couldn't explain it either. He couldn't say that compared to himself, the fire dragon opposite him was more dangerous. If there weren't a lot of spectators and people from the Ministry of Magic staring at him, he would probably have just peeled the dragon off the skin and boned it and then made a full dragon banquet.
At this moment, the sound of the camera sounded next to him. Rita Skit, the "tabble reporter", appeared very promptly and took the photo she wanted.
Ethan can already predict that the next Prophet Daily will serialize a novel with the theme of bloody love triangle.
"Wow, a little couple, if you have any accidents in this game, maybe you will immediately become famous figures that the entire magic world knows."
Hermione let go of Ethan and looked at the woman blankly.
Compared to Hermione and Harry who had already been stunned, Victor Krum, who had already experienced more of this kind of scene, was better at dealing with this kind of scene.
He bluntly stated that this is a place where players and their friends can enter, and the subtext is to let Rita, the reporter, leave.
"It's okay, I've got what I want anyway."
"No, you didn't get anything."
Ethan, who hadn't spoken, seemed to be as shocked as Harry, raised his hand. The camera, which had been hanging around the neck of the photographer, suddenly floated up and flew towards Ethan hard, but the strap was hanging around the photographer's neck. Now the two are competing.
But Ethan was not trying to seize the camera, then clenched his fist and the camera turned into pieces as if it was crushed and crushed by something.
"you!"
Rita Skit was completely shocked. She never thought that anyone would dare to attack her?
But before this was over, Ethan stretched out his finger and pointed at the camera that had turned into a pile of debris and fell to the ground. A ball of flames rose directly, which also made the photographer who was squatting down to rescue the negative film retreat.
"How can you?"
Rita Skit vowed to ruin Ethan's reputation, and the quill that floated beside her was also writing hard and was working hard to create.
Then the next second, the quill was also burned to ashes.
"Of course I can."
Ethan looked at the woman in front of him. He was not a generous person. He had decided to teach her a lesson. Of course, he wouldn't just break a few small props.
“There are many nightmares.”
When Ethan walked up to Rita, he almost recited the spell in front of her.
"When you randomly arrange others, have you never thought you would be retaliated? Enjoy it slowly, Bichi!"
After saying that, he didn't care what Rita would react, and directly hit Rita and her assistant with a magical impact, and almost bumped into Dumbledore and others who were about to come in.
"That was just now..."
"I have invited her out of an unrelated person who broke into the contestant's rest area, so don't worry, Professor Dumbledore."
Barty Crouch was still looking back, and he seemed to recognize Rita Skitter, who flew out.
"That seems to be..."
Compared to Barty Crouch's complete lack of understanding of Ethan's identity, Dumbledore immediately remembered Rita's report in the Prophet Daily some time ago. After understanding, he also stopped Barty Crouch's words.
"Batty, do the important thing first."
"Oh, right!"
Barty Crouch no longer looked outside, but raised the bag in his hand and opened a little opening.
Chapter completed!
