Although everyone was surprised that this Wizarding Card Competition was advanced, the number of students who came to watch the Wizarding Card Competition did not decrease because of this.
Because the Anti-Toad Alliance claimed that a large gathering targeting Umbridge would be held here.
This matter naturally spread to Umbridge. After finding out what the Wizard Card Competition was about from the Slytherin students, Umbridge decided to send a few Slytherin students over after careful consideration.
Seek information to avoid unnecessary conflicts with Anderson.
However, this is just an ordinary wizard card game.
The only surprising thing is that Albert actually chose the crazy girl Luna Lovegood as the designated heir of the Wizarding Card Club.
Everyone suddenly realized that Albert was about to graduate, which was a sad thing for most Hogwarts students.
"I know, you must be curious about why the club holds the wizard card competition in advance?"
Albert looked at the students below and said calmly, "This is a special year. I have a hunch that the Wizard Card Club may need to suspend it for a while."
This was undoubtedly bad news, and people began to whisper.
"Why?" Someone even asked Albert loudly.
"I think it's not difficult for everyone to guess the reason. After all, with so many of us working together, someone will definitely be unhappy." Albert raised his hand and pressed it, signaling everyone to quiet down, "Don't worry, the Wizard Card Club is not
It will be disbanded and will continue next year."
"Let the toad eat shit."
I don’t know who shouted something, which resonated with everyone. Why should they have to be interfered by Umbridge when they join a club?
"I know what you mean, but don't complain. It's actually not easy for her. She has brought us too much joy this month."
There was a burst of laughter in the activity room.
Albert was right, Umbridge did bring a lot of joy to everyone.
"The winner of this wizarding card competition, in addition to the previous ten galleons, I have also prepared some special gifts for her. You can look forward to it a little bit." Albert said pretending to be mysterious.
"What gift?" someone asked.
"Speaking it out, there is no sense of expectation anymore. Okay, today's game officially begins." Albert motioned Luna to follow Lee Jordan to familiarize herself with the process. The Ravenclaw girl obviously also liked such activities, and has been
They all studied very seriously.
Different from the previous wizard cards, today’s wizard cards have been repeatedly improved and look quite exquisite.
After the griffin fireworks symbolizing Hogwarts exploded above everyone's heads, the atmosphere at the scene was quickly ignited.
Lee Jordan picked up the microphone and led Luna to host the next wizard card game.
"What are Malfoy doing here?"
When Harry was about to cheer for Ron who was participating in the competition, he saw a guy in the crowd that he hated.
"Perhaps, he is here to help Umbridge get information."
After Hermione saw Malfoy's group whispering in the crowd, she frowned and speculated, "It doesn't feel like a good thing. I have to go talk to George about this."
That night, Umbridge learned the news and was almost too excited to sleep. She suspected that the so-called activity room was created by the Mudblood who abused the Traceless Stretching Charm. This was undoubtedly a good accusation, and she could also borrow it.
This is an opportunity to disband that damn wizard card club.
A club that has more than half of the entire school's students joining it is definitely not what Umbridge wants to see, especially since this club was founded by Albert Anderson. God knows when the other party suddenly had a brain attack and summoned the students of Hogwarts to find him.
Her trouble.
Needless to say, Albert Anderson had no respect for the Ministry of Magic from the very beginning.
The next morning, Umbridge led several Slytherin students and hurried towards the wizard card club's activity room.
As an uninvited guest, when Umbridge appeared in the activity room, the atmosphere at the scene couldn't help but stagnate. Everyone looked at Umbridge and began to whisper in low voices.
"Why is the toad here?"
"Albert is right."
"This guy is disgusting."
Many people had strong disgust on their faces, and some even pulled out their wands, preparing to secretly use them on Umbridge later.
"Mr. Anderson."
Umbridge looked around at everyone, still with a false smile on her face.
No one answered, and the place was completely silent.
Hermione's mood sank to the bottom, her eyes fixed on Umbridge. What she worried about still happened. Not to mention that the first party was disrupted, even the Wizarding Card Club might be affected. God knows Umbridge.
What will Qi do?"
"He's not here." Luna pushed aside the crowd and walked up to Umbridge, "If you have anything to ask of Albert, you may have to wait until the afternoon when the champion is awarded the award."
"Then tell him that this activity room clearly violates the Ministry of Magic's prohibition on the abuse of the Invisible Stretch Spell. I will collect the illegal items on behalf of the Ministry of Magic and let him wait for the penalty notice from the Ministry of Magic." Umbridge said with victory on her face.
Her fake smile and using her power to overwhelm others are what she is best at.
Several Slytherin students headed by Malfoy had gloating smiles on their faces. They really wanted to see Albert suffer bad luck.
As soon as she said these words, the scene completely exploded.
People heard that Umbridge actually planned to confiscate their activity room and also planned to punish Albert.
Is this guy crazy?
"Why!"
"Are you crazy?"
Angry voices came from the crowd, and everyone glared at Umbridge, wanting to pull out their wands and cast curses on her.
"Who was talking just now?" Umbridge looked around and was very satisfied when she saw everyone quiet down. She cleared her throat and said, "Okay, everyone get out of here now."
"professor……"
"Is there anything else, Miss Lovegood?" Umbridge stared at Luna with unconcealed malice.
Luna was not afraid of Umbridge's gaze and reminded her calmly: "I advise you not to do this."
"What?" The smile on Umbridge's face became even brighter.
"Because once a non-owner attempts to occupy the Book of Origins, he will be cursed by the book. It is said that this is to prevent others from illegally appropriating it." Luna calmly recounted what she had been told a long time ago.
.
"what are you saying……"
"Okay, let's all leave in an orderly manner!" George suddenly interrupted and took the lead to walk outside the activity room.
"Are we just going to let her take away our activity room?" someone said angrily.
"Don't worry, this is Albert's thing. If you try to take away the Book of Origins, you will be punished." Fred glanced at Umbridge meaningfully, and laughed softly, "Non-owners"
Anyone who wants to illegally occupy it will be cursed by this book. To be honest, I haven't seen anyone cursed yet, and this is a rare opportunity."
It took a long time for everyone to leave the activity room, but they did not leave, but wanted to see Umbridge's cursed appearance.
"Okay, let's all go away!" Umbridge noticed the other people's looking eyes and said to Luna, "Miss Lovegood, bring it to me."
Everyone looked at Luna. Hermione even grabbed Luna's hand and tried to stop her, but Luna didn't care. Instead, she bent down and picked up the "Book of Origins" from the secret passage and handed it to Umbridge.
Umbridge looked at Luna up and down, and found that there was no change in the other person. There was a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and she was already determined to find an excuse to confine the other person later.
When Umbridge took the "Book of Origins" from Luna, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes. The curse Fred mentioned was actually true.
After Umbridge came into contact with the "Book of Origins", a large number of pimples suddenly appeared on her arms, not only on her arms, but also on her face.
Gu拠/span “Ah!”
Umbridge's screams echoed through the corridor, and she threw down the book in her hand in horror to prevent the pimples on her body from continuing to appear.
"Look, anyone who tries to illegally possess it will be cursed by the Book of Origins." Luna looked at the pimple on Umbridge's face curiously, then bent down and reached out to pick up the Book of Origins that fell on the ground.
", said calmly, "I suggest you go to the school hospital. Maybe Madam Pomfrey can find a way to remove the curse."
"We warned you."
Fred and George looked at Umbridge who fainted, with helpless expressions on their faces, which amused the students around them.
"However, it's incredible that I was stunned by my own ugliness."
"Haha, now she looks more like a toad." Someone gloated.
"I didn't expect there was a curse." Someone was surprised by the changes in Umbridge.
"Whoever has a camera, please take a picture of the toad. I am willing to pay a high price for it."
The surrounding students who were watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously began to make a fuss and laugh at Umbridge's embarrassed appearance. Several Slytherin students who came with Umbridge were tricked and all fell to the ground.
, collapsed into a ball of mud.
"What the hell are you doing!"
An annoyed voice came from the side, it was Professor McGonagall. She obviously heard Umbridge's scream and came to check the situation.
"Professor, Umbridge tried to illegally possess the Book of Origins, so she was cursed by the book. You know, this book..." Before George could finish his quibble, he was interrupted by Professor McGonagall.
.
"You didn't tell her?" Professor McGonagall glared at the twin brothers. She felt that these two guys were deliberately looking for trouble.
"We reminded her." George spread his hands helplessly, "But you know she is not a person willing to listen to advice, and she also said..."
"Where is Albert? Go find him. Who else will send her to the school hospital?" Professor McGonagall looked at the group of students who were gloating over their misfortune and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"You go back and continue the game." George said to other students around him, "I don't think the toad will wake up for a while."
"George," said Professor McGonagall angrily.
"Okay professor, we will send her to the campus hospital right now." George smiled and asked Fred for help.
The game continued, but everyone was discussing the curse on the toad. Many people ran to the corridor outside the campus hospital to watch. After learning the specific situation, Madam Pomfrey calmly announced, "I can't do anything about this curse. It's best to
Find the caster of the spell, otherwise we have to wait for her to wake up on her own."
"Where's Albert?" Professor McGonagall turned her head and asked the Weasley brothers.
"I don't know, we can't find him yet, but when the wizard card competition is about to end, Albert will definitely come over and present the award to the champion." George explained with a smile.
"Okay, you can leave." After Professor McGonagall sent the people away, he looked at Umbridge lying on the hospital bed and asked Madam Pomfrey, "Poppy, what's going on with her."
"It's just a normal coma, but those pimples may not be eliminated with potions." Madam Pomfrey said calmly. She didn't like Umbridge, and she didn't like her destroying the Wizarding Card Club, because she also belonged to
Your own wizard card.
"What a greedy idiot." Professor McGonagall shook her head and walked away. She actually knew about the curse, but she also took the book and was not cursed.
Unexpectedly, Umbridge was cursed as soon as she touched it. She obviously planned to take the book as her own.
The game is still going on, but people are talking about Umbridge being cursed. Some people are gloating about Toad's misfortune, thinking that she deserves it, and some people are worried about whether Albert will be punished for this.
The Wizarding Card Competition continued in this atmosphere. Due to the significant compression of the process that originally took several days, coupled with Umbridge's interference just now, the originally crowded process schedule suddenly became tense.
Albert came to the activity room around 5:30 to preside over the final showdown for the last two contestants.
After learning from a group of enthusiasts about the bad things Umbridge had done before, Albert was not too surprised. He knew very well that Umbridge would target the Wizarding Card Club sooner or later.
Albert's calmness quickly infected others, and everyone was curious whether Albert would fall out with Umbridge because of this.
The final showdown only lasted ten minutes, and the final champion was a second-year Ravenclaw witch named Ora Quirk. She almost crushed her opponent with absolute strength.
"Congratulations, this is my extra gift to you."
Albert placed the bag of galleons in the champion's hand and handed her his new book.
"A work I completed recently is not currently on sale in bookstores. I hope it can bring you some help!"
The crowd suddenly became noisy. Everyone was very interested in Albert's new book, because in previous rumors, some people said that Albert had compiled a book on Defense Against the Dark Arts.
"When are you going to start selling this book!"
"Next semester." Albert said calmly: "That's when people will need my book."
"Okay, let's give our youngest champion a round of applause. Now is her championship moment."
Fireworks symbolizing Ravenclaw exploded above everyone's heads, and warm applause sounded in the activity room.
Albert waved his wand gently, and the tables in the lounge were cleared. A large number of snacks and butterbeer appeared on the table. Albert raised his glass and gave his blessing to the young champion.
"I'm going to deal with Umbridge's problem first." After drinking a glass of butterbeer, Albert planned to leave temporarily.
"No problem." Li Qiaodan frowned.
"What could be the problem?"
When Albert arrived at the school hospital, Umbridge had already woken up. Her temper looked terrible and she kept cursing under her breath.
Professor McGonagall was talking quietly to Madam Pomfrey and seemed to be in a good mood.
"To be honest, I was really surprised when I heard the news." Albert was very calm and couldn't tell what was surprising at all.
"You know, many people have touched that book, but no one has actually been cursed."
Seemingly hearing Albert's voice, a furious Umbridge jumped up from the hospital bed and came towards Albert.
"you this……"
Before she could finish her words, she was silenced. She grabbed her neck in horror and glared at Albert angrily. She wanted to rush forward and strangle the mudblood in front of her to death, but she couldn't move her whole body, as if she was in a piece.
He stood there as blankly as a stone sculpture.
"I think she might need a sedative." Albert waved his wand, and a hospital bed ran up behind Umbridge, letting her fall on it, and then quickly returned to her position.
"She is lucky that she has not been exposed to the Book of Origins for too long, otherwise the curse will remain on her forever." Albert interrupted what Professor McGonagall was about to say and calmly stated the truth, "Her
The symptoms are not serious, and the power of the curse will subside within three days at the latest, and you should be able to fully recover in about a week."
"I need to talk to her alone about this matter." Albert motioned for the two of them to leave for a while.
"Okay, but I hope..."
"I will take care of this matter, please don't worry." Albert promised.
After Professor McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey left, Albert came to Umbridge's hospital bed and took out his wand from his robe pocket under the horrified gaze of the other party.
A few minutes later, Albert left the school hospital.
"Okay, Professor, I have temporarily convinced Umbridge." Albert announced happily, "I will temporarily stop the Wizarding Card Club, and Professor Umbridge also promised not to pursue the previous matter."
Professor McGonagall looked at Albert suspiciously, and then at the campus hospital where it was completely quiet, and was curious about how Albert persuaded Umbridge. This chapter has been completed!
