Chapter 292 Christmas Dinner! Ethan's Stunning Entrance
"Wow"
Harry was dressed in a stiff black tailcoat (which looked rather odd).
Looking at the newly renovated auditorium, I was amazed.
At this moment, the auditorium was resplendent with gold and jade.
It looked as if at least ten thousand candles had been lit, reflecting off the glass and silverware, shimmering with dazzling light.
A wreath of mistletoe and holly hung on the windows and walls, and was decorated with colorful ribbons.
Even in the dead of winter, when snow is falling heavily, the auditorium appears lush and vibrant with life.
For some students.
The most enticing thing was the incredibly lavish dinner on the long table.
Wow!
Ron's mouth dropped open.
Staring intently at the plump turkey on the table, the mashed potatoes covered in meat sauce, and the tower of German sausages.
There are also pies stuffed with all sorts of fillings you can imagine, or even things you can't.
as well as.
Mountains and mountains of butterbeer!
With a "glug" sound.
Ron swallowed loudly.
It seems they didn't expect it to be so loud.
Her face flushed red, and she nervously looked around.
Just then.
"Hey! Our little Ronnie's starving!"
The Weasley twins jumped out from behind and slapped their little brother hard!
Ron almost bit off his own tongue.
Ron shouted angrily, "Get away from here!"
The Weasley Twins: "Really? Keeping family away for Christmas? Looks like our little Ronnie's changed ego after putting on his new suit~"
Ron blushed and muttered, "Oh—shut up!"
Thanks to Ethan's share of the moonflower.
Ron got a new suit for this Christmas dinner.
It's the basic black version.
When Ron found out...
I almost wore a dress that I found at a flea market, the kind that was worn by old ladies from the last century.
I was so scared I almost kowtowed to Ethan.
Harry quickly changed the subject, asking, "Where are Ethan and Luna? The warriors are about to enter."
The twins shrugged: "Who knows? They certainly won't enter the venue the normal way."
talking.
The Gemini looked on with anticipation.
I wonder what kind of prankster Ethan will use to scare them this time?
Did they suddenly appear among them?
Or will it fall from the sky like a meteorite?
That's intriguing!
In the midst of conversation.
The ball has begun.
Even the professor seemed to have tacitly approved of Ethan's "absence".
They didn't bother looking for them, but hurriedly pushed them backstage.
period.
Professor McGonagall even angrily brandished her wand at Harry's unruly hair.
This gave Harry a fright.
"I think Professor McGonagall is being a bit paranoid."
Gemini muttered under his breath and reluctantly handed over the firecrackers hidden in his pocket.
Harry: "Anyone would be on edge if they dropped a time bomb in front of international friends."
Professor McGonagall: "Alright, children! Time's up! Come up on stage!"
The phrase "It's time" sounded like they were being led to their execution.
Melodious music began to play.
Harry is arm in arm with his dance partner.
They walked out of the curtain, hand in hand, stepping into a radiant light.
then.
In the very first section, he gave Miss Petit a hard kick.
"Feel sorry."
Harry muttered to himself, pretending not to see the other person's angry glare.
Hearing the confused voices from the audience asking, "Where's Ethan?"
His body was stiff, and he even confused "hugging and spinning" with "wave swinging".
however.
Unexpected.
It's as if they're determined to cut flesh with a dull knife.
Ethan and Luna did not appear until the song ended.
When polite applause rang out from the audience.
Harry was panting, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw his godfather Sirius Black clapping enthusiastically.
He couldn't help but grin.
Followed by.
Just as the violin played its last note.
"Hu Yi"
As if in response.
A gentle breeze blew by.
Hundreds of candles suddenly went out.
The auditorium was plunged into complete darkness.
—Has it finally arrived?!
Harry shuddered.
While feeling tense, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He chuckled lightly, "Having seen so much, I no longer feel panicked or afraid."
Anyway, Ethan's just doing something weird again to scare them.
Harry, on the contrary, found it somewhat exciting.
next second.
Harry's smile froze.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
In an instant, all the blood in my body seemed to flow backwards back to my brain!
Emerging from the darkness was a pure white mask.
Mr. Lamp.
In an instant.
Inside the auditorium, you could hear a pin drop.
All those lighthearted smiles froze.
Frozen in terror.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Mad-Eye Moody, stood up abruptly.
A look of astonishment appeared in his single eye.
Hesitantly, he reached for his wand.
"Tap, tap, tap."
In complete silence.
Mr. Lamp's figure gradually came into view.
A ray of moonlight streamed in through the window, like the lighting in a stage play.
It shone perfectly on him.
The light illuminated a blonde girl who was slumped in his arms.
Her pale, slender arm hung limply, dripping bright red blood.
It seemed devoid of any vitality.
That was Luna Lovegood.
at this time.
This girl is usually as lively and carefree as a deer.
A horrifying bloody hole appeared in his chest.
From it grows a vibrant, crimson rose.
"Love, it kills without shedding blood. It prevents the dead from resting and the living from finding release..."
'
A clear, low voice rang out.
Harry was taken aback.
That's when I noticed it.
This "Mr. Lamp" is clearly the figure of a teenager.
He raised his gloved hand and gently plucked the rose from Luna's bosom.
A delicate petal fell as the movement occurred.
"
When all the rose petals have fallen, the black egg will shatter. It will devour those you cherish.
"This is the clue to the second match."
The words fell.
"call!"
Suddenly, the candles in the auditorium were lit.
The bright lights illuminated the smiling face behind the pure white mask, revealing the vanished warrior, Ethan Vincent!
And Luna, who was "dead" in his arms.
She also put her arm around Ethan's neck, propped herself up, and waved happily at them.
66
'
After two seconds of silence.
The auditorium suddenly erupted in thunderous applause!
The Weasley twins jumped right onto the table, their faces turning as red as tomatoes with excitement!
"Great! That's awesome!"
"A fantastic performance!! Who would have thought Ethan would play the Dark Lord?!"
"That's brilliant!"
Harry's heart, which had been pounding, suddenly settled back into his throat.
He chuckled, "Ethan's sense of humor is still so unique..."
"
but.
This performance was absolutely stunning!
This made him remember the clues from the second match so well that he felt he would never forget them again.
Amid cheers and applause.
Ethan maintained his unchanging smile.
In his cobalt blue eyes, a dark glint lurked, unnoticed by anyone.
Just as everyone was captivated by this spectacular entrance.
"Bang!"
A loud bang suddenly rang out!
The person in charge of this year's Goblet of Fire was Mr. Barty Crouch, the Director of the Ministry of Magic.
He slammed his fist on the table and jumped to his feet.
He glared at Ethan on the stage, his eyes almost spitting fire!
He roared angrily, "Threatening enemies of the magical world is something to joke about?! It's utterly childish!"
It was as if it touched on some unspeakable scar of his.
He was so angry that he was panting heavily, and his whole body was trembling.
"6
'
The students stopped clapping.
They looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.
The Weasley twins frowned.
Let's exchange glances and see if we can give this old-fashioned Ministry of Magic official a taste of his stinky farts.
Are we supposed to be all respectful to our enemies in the magical world?
I really need to check if there are any images of Voldemort displayed at home.
Headmaster Dumbledore smoothed things over, saying, "Well, it's Christmas, it's not that serious, it's not that serious."
Before he could finish speaking...
Then I was interrupted by a clear voice.
"Then, I'd like to ask you something."
Ethan said calmly.
He put Luna down, his azure eyes fixed on Mr. Crouch.
He said, enunciating each word clearly, "Since I attacked in enemy form, why didn't you attack me with Avada Kedavra just now?"
Crouch was stunned, his angry expression freezing on his face: "Ah, this?"
Ethan turned his head.
Looking around the huge auditorium, my gaze swept over the bewildered faces.
He opened his arms wide and asked loudly, "Why didn't you immediately fight back or flee when attacked?"
"Do you think the enemy would be so polite as to knock on the door just because it's Christmas Eve?"
then.
Amidst everyone's ominous premonition.
Ethan clenched his fists.
He sighed and shook his head.
He spoke slowly and tenderly, with a doting tone: "It seems you still need to practice."
"The second match will be more difficult."
Everyone: ? ? ?
Warriors: ? ? ?
Not a buddy.
How come you're as devilish as Mr. Lamp?!
the other side.
Because of Ethan's words, Dumbledore suddenly thought of something, and his smile paused.
He turned his head sharply, his gaze piercing the crowd like an eagle's.
The person who should have been least likely to fail to react was a seasoned veteran who would have been on high alert at the slightest disturbance.
Mad-Eye Moody!
Headmaster Dumbledore narrowed his eyes.
