A Genius in a Second to Remember Love? The Internet provides you with exciting novels to read.
Among the four colleges of Hogwarts, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff belonged to the relatively moderate middle school, while Gryffindor and Slytherin were at opposite ends of the spectrum. They were in a hostile competitive relationship and did not see eye to eye with each other.
However, this hostility and competition were all within the limits of the school's rules.
In the words of Fred and George, everyone knew where the bottom line was. Perhaps some people would occasionally cross a toe or two, but before they caused any major trouble, they would immediately retract it. Otherwise, what awaited them would be severe punishment according to the school's rules.
However, the atmosphere in the auditorium that afternoon was very strange.
Elwyn keenly sensed that something seemed to have happened between the two colleges of Gryffindor and Slytherin.
Both sides were at each other's throats, and their relationship was extremely tense. This was something that had never happened before.
As soon as he, Corin, and Ginny walked in, they saw a few students from Slytherin, led by Malfoy, staring at the three of them with malicious intent.
Harry and Ron hurriedly greeted them and led them to Gryffindor's long table.
Seeing how cautious and wary they were of each other, Elwyn suspected that if it were not for the professors sitting in the teachers' seats, they would have immediately started fighting.
"What the hell is going on?" Elwyn sat next to Hermione.
"Everyone in the school knows that Sirius and Snape had a duel," Hermione said softly, her voice full of worry.
"A duel?!" Elwyn was stunned. "We saw it at the school's gate yesterday …"
"Not that time, it happened this morning. The two of them fought in the teachers' lounge, and a few passing Hufflepuff students witnessed the whole duel!" Hermione said. "It was very noisy at that time, and the two of them only stopped when Dumbledore showed up."
Elwyn suddenly understood. No wonder he did not see Sirius and Snape in the auditorium this morning. He thought they had already finished breakfast. Who would have thought that the two of them would have a duel upstairs?! No wonder Snape was so abnormal this morning and treated everyone so badly.
"Sirius is too impulsive. It's just the first day of school, and he has already fought with Snape twice," Hermione said uneasily.
Elwyn was not surprised. The duel between Sirius and Snape was something that was bound to happen no matter how one looked at it, but he did not expect it to happen so soon.
If there was no winner, the two of them would definitely continue to fight.
"Since they had a duel, what was the result?"
"I don't know, they were separated by Dumbledore before they could decide the result!" Hermione continued. "But after class, Sirius told us that if he was given a few more minutes, he would be able to defeat Snape."
From Elwyn's point of view, this sentence should be Sirius saying it to save face, and Snape's strength should be slightly stronger than his.
Ten years ago, they might have been evenly matched. But Sirius, after all, had been locked up in Azkaban for thirteen years, and his magic power and fighting skills had regressed. And Snape's strength had improved greatly in these ten years.
If they continued to fight, Sirius was likely to lose to Snape.
But with Sirius's fighting style, even if Snape won the duel in the end, he would definitely pay a considerable price.
In short, if other external forces and environmental influences were not taken into account, the result of the duel should be a lose-lose situation.
"Alright, if Sirius and Snape are fighting, then what's going on with Malfoy and the students from Slytherin Academy?" Elwyn asked curiously. "Look at them, they can't wait to eat us up!"
"Why don't you understand, Elwyn!" Harry came over. "Since Sirius and Snape are fighting head-on, we must support Sirius."
"Support Sirius?!" Elwyn was even more confused.
"That's right, we've already planned to find a chance to fight it out with Slytherin and determine the winner. We're currently gathering people. Looking at Malfoy and Slytherin, they must be thinking the same, and they're all supporting Snape. "
A head-on confrontation between academies to determine the winner was really childish.
Elwyn knew that Dumbledore would never let this happen. He would definitely restrain Sirius and Snape to prevent the situation from worsening.
"You also think it's ridiculous, don't you?" Hermione asked. Seeing that Elwyn nodded, she continued, "But Harry and Ron are all thinking the same thing. They won't listen no matter how I persuade them."
"This isn't what we think, Hermione. After knowing about this, many Gryffindor are ready to fight with Slytherin. Everyone has wanted to do this for a long time," Ron said innocently. "Moreover, this time Sirius is taking the lead."
"This is just your private plan. Sirius will never agree to such a crazy idea," Hermione said worriedly. Hermione worriedly said, "Have you guys forgotten? This happened once last year, and Professor Mag was so mad at that time. She said that if anyone dares to do it again, she will fire them."
"You're talking about the scuffle at the Quidditch field, right?" Harry recalled. "Fred and George threw a lot of dung eggs. Malfoy was the main target."
"He deserved it. Who told him to say those words to Hermione!" Ron added, glancing at Hermione before quickly looking away.
"But in the end, none of us got the upper hand. Everyone was punished in the end." Hermione tried to bring the topic back to what she wanted to say. "This time …"
"Alright, Hermione. Replying to Lockhart's letter isn't much of a punishment. I heard from Harry that you and Elwyn didn't go at that time. " Ron waved his hand. "Under Filch's watch, I wiped the trophy for an entire night and vomited slugs for more than two weeks."
"That's why you shouldn't …"
"The situation is different this time, Hermione!" Harry said in a low voice. "Malfoy is obviously preparing to attack. The duel between Sirius and Snape was just the fuse. He must be using this as an excuse to plan something. We have to defend ourselves."
"If that's the case, we should tell the professor," Hermione said uncertainly.
"Oh my god, do you want us to tell Professor Meg that Malfoy might be preparing to attack us and that he wants the school to provide protection?!" Ron waved his fork and refused. "That's too embarrassing. If we really do that, we'll be laughed at."
"But …"
"Have you forgotten what happened this morning? Malfoy is provoking us. We have to fight," Harry said firmly. "There's no other way out, Hermione! This is for both Sirius and for ourselves. "
The more Elwyn listened to the conversation between the three of them, the more confused he became.
He didn't know how Harry and Ron had escalated the duel between Sirius and Snape into a war between the two schools. Something else must have happened in between that he didn't know. However, from the analysis of the outcome, it was possible that Malfoy was plotting something. The possibility of him using this matter to stir up trouble was very high.
