Chapter 1008: Curse of Greed
This matter naturally spread to Umbridge. After figuring out what was going on in the wizarding card game from the Slytherin students, Umbridge decided to send a few Slytherin students over after much consideration. Check out the news to avoid unnecessary conflict with Anderson.
However, this is just an ordinary wizard card game.
The only surprise is that Albert chose the mad girl Luna Lovegood as the designated heir of the Wizards Card Club.
The sudden realization that Albert is about to graduate is a sad event for the vast majority of Hogwarts students.
"I know, you must be wondering why the club held the wizarding card game earlier?"
Albert looked around at the students below and said calmly, "This year is a special year, and I have a hunch that the Wizards Card Club may need to be suspended for a while."
This was undoubtedly bad news, and people started whispering.
"Why?" Someone even asked Albert the reason aloud.
"I don\'t think it\'s hard for everyone to guess the reason. After all, with so many of us getting together, someone will definitely be unhappy." Albert raised his hand and pressed it, signaling everyone to be quiet, "Don\'t worry, the Wizards Card Club does not It will be disbanded because of this, and it will continue next year.”
"Let the toads eat shit."
I don’t know who shouted, and it resonated with everyone. Why should they be interfered by Umbridge when they join a club.
"I know what you mean, but don\'t complain, she\'s not easy. She has brought us so 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.
"In addition to the previous ten Galleons, the champion of this year\'s wizard card competition, I also prepared some special gifts for her, everyone can look forward to it." Albert pretended to be mysterious.
"What gift?" someone asked.
"There is no sense of expectation when I say it. Well, today\'s game officially starts." Albert motioned for Luna to follow Lee Jordan to familiarize himself with the process. The Ravenclaw girl obviously likes this kind of activity, and has been studying very seriously.
Unlike the wizard cards of previous editions, today\'s wizard cards have been repeatedly improved and look quite beautiful.
After the fireworks of the Griffin, a symbol of 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 Wizards card game.
"What is Malfoy doing here?"
Harry was about to go to cheer on Ron, who was participating in the game, when he saw a guy he hated in the crowd.
"Maybe, he\'s here to help Umbridge find out."
After seeing the whispering Malfoy group in the crowd, Hermione frowned and speculated, "It always doesn\'t feel like a good thing, I have to tell George about this."
That night, Umbridge got the news and almost couldn\'t sleep with excitement. She suspected that the so-called activity room was created by the Mudblood\'s abuse of the Traceless Stretching Charm. This was undoubtedly a good crime, and she could take this opportunity to dissolve the **** wizard card club.
A club that has more than half of the students in the entire school is definitely not what Umbridge would like to see, especially since this club was founded by Albert Anderson. her troubles.
Not to mention, Albert Anderson had no reverence for the Ministry of Magic from the start.
The next morning, Umbridge and several Slytherin students rushed to the activity room of the Wizarding Card Club.
As an uninvited villain, 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 a low voice.
"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 give Umbridge a sneak peek later.
"Mr Anderson."
Umbridge looked around, still with a fake smirk on his face.
No one answered, and the place was dead silent.
Hermione\'s mood sank to the bottom, her eyes fixed on Umbridge, what she was worried about still happened, the first party was messed up, even the wizard card club may be affected, God knows Umri What will Chi do. "
"He\'s not here." Luna pushed aside the crowd and walked in front of Umbridge. "If you have something to call Albert, you may have to wait until the afternoon to present the champion award."
"Then tell him that this activity room clearly violates the Ministry of Magic\'s prohibition on the abuse of the Traceless Stretching Charm, and I will take the illegal items on behalf of the Ministry of Magic and let him wait for the punishment notice from the Ministry of Magic." Umbridge had victory on his face. A fake smile, and using power to oppress people is what she does best.
Several Slytherin students headed by Malfoy all had schadenfreude smiles on their faces, and they hoped to see Albert in bad luck.
As soon as she said her words, the scene exploded completely.
It was heard that Umbridge was planning to seize their event room and that he was planning to punish Albert.
Is this guy crazy?
"Why!"
"Are you crazy?"
There were angry voices from the crowd, and everyone glared at Umbridge, eager to draw out their wands and curse her.
"Who was talking just now." Umbridge looked around and was very satisfied when she saw that everyone was quiet. She cleared her throat and said, "Okay, now everyone get out of here."
"professor……"
"Is there anything else, Miss Lovegood?" Umbridge stared at Luna with undisguised malice in her eyes.
Luna was not afraid of Umbridge\'s gaze, and reminded calmly: "I advise you not to do this."
"What?" The smile on Umbridge\'s face widened.
"Because once the non-owner tries to take possession of the Book of Origins, he will be cursed by the book. It is said that this is to prevent others from taking it illegally." Luna calmly recounted what she had been told long ago. .
"what are you saying……"
"Okay, let\'s leave in an orderly manner!" George interrupted suddenly, taking the lead and walking towards the activity room.
"Could it be that she just took our activity room away?" someone said indignantly.
"Don\'t worry, this is Albert\'s thing. If you want to take the Book of Origins, you will be punished." Fred gave Umbridge a meaningful look and whispered, "The non-owner To take it illegally is to be cursed by this book. To be honest, I haven\'t seen anyone cursed yet, so this is a rare opportunity."
It took a lot of time for all the talents to leave the activity room, but they did not leave, but wanted to see Umbridge\'s cursed appearance.
"Okay, let\'s go!" Umbridge said to Luna, noticing the scrutiny of the others, "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, but bent down and picked up the Book of Origins from the secret passage and handed it to Umbridge.
Umbridge looked Luna up and down, and found that there was no change in the other party. With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he had already decided to find an excuse to put the other party in confinement later.
When Umbridge took the Book of Origins from Luna, everyone couldn\'t help but widen their eyes. The curse Fred said was actually true.
After Umbridge came into contact with the Book of Origins, a lot of pimples suddenly appeared on her arms, not only her arms, but even her face.
"what!"
Umbridge\'s scream resounded through the hallway, and she threw the book in her hand in horror, but the pimple didn\'t continue to appear on her body.
"Look, anyone who tries to illegally possess it will be cursed by the Book of Origins." Luna looked curiously at the pimple growing on Umbridge\'s face, bent down and reached out to pick up the Book of Origins that had fallen on the ground. ", said lightly, "I suggest you go to the school hospital, maybe Madam Pomfrey has a way to remove the curse."
"We reminded you."
Fred and George looked at the fainted Umbridge with helpless expressions on their faces, which amused the students around them.
"However, it\'s unbelievable that you are actually dizzy by yourself."
"Yuck!" Someone started retching.
"Deserved, retribution." Someone laughed happily.
"Haha, now she\'s more like a toad." Someone gloated.
"I didn\'t expect that there was really a curse." Some people were surprised at the change in Umbridge.
"Whoever has a camera, take a picture of the toad, I\'m willing to pay a high price."
The students around who were watching the fun and didn’t think it was a big deal began to make a fuss and laughed at Umbridge’s embarrassed appearance. Several Slytherin students who came with Umbridge were hacked and all fell to the ground. , paralyzed into a mess.
"What the **** are you doing!"
An annoyed voice came from the side, it was Professor McGonagall, who had apparently heard Umbridge screaming and came to check the situation.
"Professor, Umbridge tried to illegally possess the Book of Origins, so he was cursed by the book, you know, this book..." Professor McGonagall interrupted George\'s sophistry before he could finish his sophistry. .
"You didn\'t tell her?" Professor McGonagall glared at the twins, who she felt were deliberately looking for trouble.
"We reminded her." George spread his hands helplessly, "but you know she\'s not someone who is willing to listen, and, she also said..."
"Where is Albert, go find him, and who else will take her to the school hospital." Professor McGonagall sighed deeply as he looked at the group of gloating students.
"You guys go back and continue the game." George said to the other students around him, "I guess Toad won\'t wake up for a while."
"George," said Professor McGonagall angrily.
"Okay professor, let\'s take her to the school hospital." George greeted Fred with a smile.
The game continued, but everyone was discussing the curse of the toad. Many people ran to the corridor outside the school hospital to watch. Madam Pomfrey calmly announced after learning about the specific situation, "I can\'t do anything about this curse, it\'s better. Find the caster, or she will have to wait until she wakes up."
"Where\'s Albert?" Professor McGonagall asked the Weasley brothers sideways.
"I don\'t know, we can\'t find him for the time being, but when the wizard card game is about to end, Albert will definitely come over to present the champion." George explained with a smile.
"Okay, you can leave now." After Professor McGonagall dismissed the people, he looked at Umbridge lying on the hospital bed, and asked Madam Pomfrey, "Bobbie, what\'s the matter with her."
"It\'s just a normal coma, but those bumps may not be able to be removed 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 own wizard card.
"What a greedy idiot." Professor McGonagall shook her head and walked away. She actually knew there was a curse, but she also took the book and wasn\'t cursed for it.
Unexpectedly, Umbridge was cursed as soon as he touched it, apparently intending to directly take the book as his own.
The game is still going on, it\'s just that people are talking about Umbridge\'s curse, some gloating at Toad\'s fate, thinking she deserves it, and some worrying about whether Albert will be punished for it.
The wizard card game continued in such an atmosphere. Since the process that originally took several days was greatly compressed, and the interference from Umbridge just now, the already crowded process arrangement suddenly became tense.
Albert came to the event room around 5:30 to officiate the final showdown for the last two contestants.
After learning from a group of enthusiastic people about what Umbridge had done before, Albert was not too surprised. He knew very well that Umbridge would sooner or later target the Wizarding Card Club.
Albert\'s calmness soon infected others, and everyone was curious whether Albert would fall out with Umbridge because of this.
The final confrontation lasted only ten minutes, and the final winner was a Ravenclaw sophomore witch named Ola Quirk. She almost crushed her opponent with absolute strength.
"Congratulations, this is my extra gift for you."
Albert put the purse containing Galleon in the champion\'s hand and handed her his new book by the way.
"A work I recently completed is not sold in bookstores at present. I hope it can bring you some help!"
There was a sudden uproar in the crowd, and 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, "then people will need my book."
"Okay, let\'s give our youngest champion a round of applause, it\'s her championship moment."
Fireworks symbolizing Ravenclaw exploded above everyone\'s heads, and warm applause sounded in the event room.
Albert waved his wand lightly, the tables in the lounge were emptied, and a lot of snacks and butter beer appeared on the table. Albert raised his glass to send his blessings to the young champion.
"I\'ll deal with Umbridge first." After drinking a glass of butterbeer, Albert planned to leave temporarily.
"No problem." Li Jordan frowned.
"What could be wrong."
When Albert arrived at the hospital, Umbridge was awake, her temper looked terrible, and she was swearing in a low voice.
Professor McGonagall was talking to Madam Pomfrey in a low voice and seemed to be in a good mood.
"To be honest, I was really surprised when I heard the news." Albert was calm, and couldn\'t see exactly where he was surprised.
"You know, a lot of people touched that book, but no one was really cursed."
It seems that he heard Albert\'s voice, and the furious Umbridge jumped up from the hospital bed and killed Albert.
"you this……"
Before she could finish her words~www.mtlnovel.com~, she was silenced. She grabbed her neck in horror and glared at Albert angrily. She wanted to pounce on and strangle the mudblood in front of her. They couldn\'t move, and they stood there like a stone sculpture.
"I think she might need a sedative." Albert waved his wand, and a hospital bed ran to Umbridge\'s back, letting her fall on it, then quickly returned to her place.
"She is very lucky that she hasn\'t been in contact with 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 told the truth calmly, "Her The symptoms are not serious, the power of the curse will subside in three days at the latest, and it should be able to fully recover in about a week."
"I need to talk to her alone about this." Albert motioned for the two to leave for a while.
"Okay, but I hope..."
"I will resolve this matter, please don\'t worry." Albert assured.
After Professor McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey left, Albert went to Umbridge\'s hospital bed and took out his wand from his robe pocket under the terrified gaze of the other party.
A few minutes later, Albert left the school hospital.
"Okay Professor, I have temporarily persuaded Umbridge." Albert announced happily, "I will temporarily stop the Wizarding Card Club, and Professor Umbridge has promised not to pursue the previous matter."
Professor McGonagall looked suspiciously at Albert, and then at the school hospital, which was completely quiet, curious how Albert convinced Umbridge.
