Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 542

But when he remembered who the person in front of him was, he turned his head away.

He looked at Krum.

He muttered a curse under his breath, calling the person a piece of trash.

Darren immediately wanted to display his saintly aura.

But Dumbledore grasped his shoulder.

He pulled Darren around forcefully.

“Headmaster Dumbledore, he…”

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

"Oh, child... it's best not to offend such a petty person!"

He winked at Darren.

Darren could only show a worried expression as he looked at Krum.

"It's fine."

Krum shook his head dismissively.

He's already used to it.

He found Darren's concern for him quite interesting.

He even insisted on becoming a pen pal with Darren.

He said Darren's underwater feint to subdue a mermaid was amazing, and he wanted to learn that move.

Also, because Darren saved him, he wanted to teach Darren how to play Quidditch.

He wanted to train Darren to become a Quidditch master as well.

He told Darren that the only difference between Darren and Harry was Quidditch.

If he plays Quidditch well, he will definitely be able to crush Harry and become the most admired person in everyone's heart.

This left Darren both amused and exasperated.

Good grief, what can he do after crushing Harry? Give him a savior title?

Let him protect the world?

Chapter 472 Scoring!!

Darren, of course, rejected Krum's offer.

He stated that he doesn't actually like Quidditch very much, and he doesn't want to be compared to Harry.

He also stated that Harry will always be his idol.

This greatly surprised Krum.

He kept staring at Harry, as if trying to figure out why Darren admired him.

Harry glanced at Krum suspiciously, beginning to wonder if Krum was trying to get revenge on him because of his and Darren's prowess.

Thankfully, Ludobagman is about to announce the score.

Krum finally turned his gaze away.

Otherwise, Harry said he would definitely be angry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just spoken with the merman leader."

They were somewhat annoyed, as they considered it shameful that Darren had almost captured them all.

Especially since we used projection, which made them extremely uncomfortable; the news was practically spreading throughout the entire magical world… Of course, that's all minor; they decided to forgive Darren because he didn't mean it… Yes, Darren, they've forgiven you; you don't need to be so surprised.”

Ludobagman said with a smile.

Darren looked embarrassed and said, "I thought I was going to make enemies with them. I was planning to apologize to them in a bit, and I also need to thank them. They helped me a lot!"

[bite……]

“Oh, Darren, I think it’s not necessary for now. They might not want to see you for a while, so please don’t show up in front of them.”

Ludobagman laughed.

He wasn't the only one laughing; the other wizards also burst into loud laughter.

It seems they were quite pleased that the mermaid had failed them.

"Alright, kids, let's stop discussing this."

We'll start scoring. We've decided to score your performance based on a maximum of 50 points.

The first one is Miss Fleur Delacour. You used an excellent Bubble Head Charm, which earned you a lot of points.

However, during the confrontation with the mermaid, he was injured because he did not use the spells skillfully.

Therefore, we've decided to give you twenty-five points!

"The second is Mr. Krum, who used an excellent Transfiguration spell in his confrontation with the merman."

But like Miss Fleur Delacour, you ultimately met your demise there.

Therefore, we've decided to give you twenty-five points!

"The third one is Mr. Harry Potter. Although you did not fight during your meeting with the mermaids."

However, you escaped very quickly, which allowed you to reach the square unharmed.

Don't laugh, guys, luck and speed are also forms of skill.

Mr. Harry Potter, also a warrior who arrived safely in Mermaid Square.

He brought back his hostages. Although he had some luck involved, he did what he was supposed to do.

Therefore, we give him thirty-five points!

Darren kept clapping for Harry.

Some of the students around cheered as well.

Of course, Malfoy and the others could only mutter about escaping. After Potter's words, Ludobagman looked at Darren.

This attracted a lot of attention.

They thought Darren deserved a perfect score.

However, his questioning of the mermaid seemed to undermine the fairness of the competition.

But Ludobagman doesn't think so at all.

"The fourth person I want to introduce is our Mr. Darren Porter."

He cleverly used his self-invented waterproof spell, demonstrating that even fourth-grade students could develop their own spells—this was his first shining achievement.

Hermione clapped her hands vigorously.

She yelled at Darren, "You're the best!"

Then, the crowd in the entire venue cheered loudly.

So much so that Dumbledore had to use magic to suppress the cheers.

"quiet!"

He shouted loudly.

This silenced many students.

The main issue is that Ludobagman hasn't finished speaking yet.

He has not yet announced Darren's score.

"Many judges believed that Darren's attack on the mermaid was normal because he was eager to save his friend."

This is a noble quality, and I believe no one can criticize such a noble character.

However, because a referee objected, his score was forty-five points!

Ludobagman shouted.

With a loud bang.

The entire venue erupted in cheers once again.

It seems even magic can't drown out everyone's voices.

Of course, no professor was willing to use magic to suppress such cheers.

Hermione and Fleur rushed up and hugged Darren.
