I'm the king of the roll at Hogwarts

Chapter 282: Successful Trap
Even for Karkaroff, the headmaster of Durmstrang, ten thousand gold Galleons is not a small amount, and he certainly cannot ignore it.

As for the Weasley twins? They were just sixth graders, and Karkaroff didn't take them seriously at all. In his opinion, the Weasley twins were just a little naughty.

What kind of naughty students are there at Durmstrang? Karkaroff has personally dealt with the bad guys who used Cruciatus on their classmates.

Of course, this is not considered bad according to Durmstrang's definition. For Durmstrang, it is also considered basic bad behavior.

"Of course it's true, Headmaster Karkaroff." Louis smiled elegantly and glanced at Dumbledore. "If you don't believe it, you can ask Professor Dumbledore if I can fulfill this bet."

Dumbledore immediately said, "Ah, yes. In the first grade, Louis donated 30 million pounds to the school in his personal name. If converted into Galleons, it would be around 6 million."

The relaxed tone seemed to show that he didn't care about such a small amount of money.

In an instant, everyone sitting at the table stared blankly. Victor's breathing became a little heavy. He glanced at Catherine, then at Louis, and he suddenly understood why such a beautiful and powerful girl would commit herself to such a young sissy.

Although he had heard some stories about Louis before, Victor obviously didn't believe it.

The eyes of the girls from other schools at the table changed when they looked at Louis. The Durmstrang girl next to Vasily almost glued her eyes to Louis, and the fire in her eyes seemed to want to devour him completely.

Who doesn’t love a rich guy? The key is that he is pretty handsome.

"I am certainly willing to believe Mr. Mountbatten," Karkaroff immediately excused himself, "I have also heard about Mr. Mountbatten's family background. So let's make it like this. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

"What if you lose?" Louis raised his eyebrows. "Of course, I don't look down on you. After all, this is a bet. Even if you are sure to win, you have to give the twins a little carrot on the stick as a sweet treat, right?"

Karkaroff looked at Louis for a long moment, then laughed out loud with his mouth wide open. "Hahaha... Well, let's do as Mr. Mountbatten said. As a headmaster, I do have the generosity to do this... Well, if I lose to the twins, I will donate one thousand gold Galleons to the two students in my personal name. Of course, please forgive me for not having your wealth, Mr. Mountbatten. One thousand Galleons is already a considerable sum for me."

He was not ashamed of not being as rich as Louis. After all, everyone knew how wealthy Louis was. Even the goblins in Gringotts might not have as much wealth as him, so... it was not something to be ashamed of.

Come to think of it, he was right. One thousand Galleons was indeed not a small amount of money for him.

"That's settled then." Louis said with a smile, and snapped his fingers. Sakuya, dressed in a very formal British maid outfit, appeared behind him in an instant.

Karkaroff narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not see clearly how Sakuya appeared. In other words, this maid who looked like a vase might have the ability to threaten his safety.

There is a saying that goes, I don't want to know how you came to be, I just want to know how I died. This is what Karkaroff is thinking now.

"Go, get the Weasley twins," Louis ordered.

Sakuya bowed slightly to show that she understood, then turned around and called the twins over.

Even though there were so many principals sitting here, the twins did not show any sign of stage fright. They circled Louis on the left and right and asked with a smile, "Hey, Louis, what's wrong?"

"I have a big business for you two." Louis happily extended his hand to introduce Professor Karkaroff: "This is Headmaster Karkaroff of Durmstrang. I think you two should know him. Headmaster Karkaroff doesn't believe that no one can catch you two when you are wandering at night, so he made a bet with me. If you two win, he will pay you one thousand gold galleons. How about this job?"

The twins looked at each other. Challenging a principal openly? They had never experienced such an exciting experience before. So, they both said in unison: "Of course, no problem. What should we do?"

Looking at their excited expressions, it’s obvious that they can’t wait.

"Well, don't worry about this. As you know, it's a dance now. We can discuss it after the dance." Louis smiled and signaled them not to rush. "Of course, you two can start preparing. After all, Headmaster Karkaroff often deals with those naughty students. You two don't want to be caught by him and use some Durmstrang-style punishment, right?"

"Ahem, Mr. Mountbatten, we at Durmstrang do not corporal punishment on students." Headmaster Karkaroff smiled very much like Snape, and his ferocious look showed that he was not a good person.

Louis just wants to say that I don’t believe you at all. You are a very bad old man. Can you please not corporally punish students? I, Louis, am a loyal man.

It seems that Louis has a very accurate understanding of his own positioning. At least he has recognized his own shortcomings, which is still desirable.

The whole table was staring at Louis and Headmaster Karkaroff. Only Fleur's dance partner, Roger Davis from Ravenclaw, was still staring at Fleur intently. He even poked the cake with a fork and poked it on his face, causing laughter from the students who saw it.

This kid, you won’t know until you see him. It’s really shocking. He actually has the potential to become Feiyangyang?
Madame Maxime was also not paying attention to this. She didn't care whether Karkaroff would be humiliated or not, nor did she care whether the twins would be caught and punished by Karkaroff. Her eyes were now on the staff table... Oh, Hagrid was sitting there, no longer wearing the fluffy brown suit, but a very fitting formal suit.

The messy hair was also neatly groomed, and the beard was even carefully braided into several small braids, which made the strong man Hagrid look a bit cute.

Emma was sitting next to him, holding her chin and looking at Louis in a trance. It seemed that Hagrid's elaborate outfit was designed by her.

Seeing Madame Maxime staring at this side, Emma quickly stretched out her arm and poked Hagrid. Hagrid was stunned for a moment and looked down. Emma didn't say anything, but pointed at Madame Maxime.

Hagrid turned his head and saw Madame Maxime also looking at him.

The innocent little giant was a little at a loss at this time. He scratched his head awkwardly, showing a silly smile, and then stretched out a big hand and waved to Madame Maxime; Madame Maxime also waved at him, and the huge opal ring on her hand shone brightly in the candlelight.

Louis saw the little action between Hagrid and Madame Maxime, and lowered his head to say something to Catherine. Catherine looked up curiously and saw Hagrid, whose face was as red as a big apple.

"Why is he blushing?" Catherine asked suspiciously. Louis didn't know what was wrong with him, and answered casually: "Fresh."

What he said was true. Hagrid was indeed in a state of high spirits. He was more excited than anyone else - except Dean Thomas. He was the most excited and happiest person in the ball. After all, his dance partner was the school beauty of Beauxbatons. From the beginning until now, his expression was as happy as if he had picked up a few hundred dollars in cash... Oh, no, in the wizarding world, it should be said that he had picked up a few hundred gold Galleons.

"Refreshed?" Catherine thought for a moment and suddenly realized: "You mean the power of love? No wonder, Hagrid should find a girlfriend. Hey...why are we not as careful as our mother?"

"Mom?" Louis didn't react for a moment, then realized that Catherine was talking about Emma, ​​he immediately joked: "Why, can't you wait to call mom right away?"

"Isn't your mother my mother? You're surprised by something new." Catherine is no longer the girl who blushes when teased. After so many years of torture from Louis, she has developed a good immunity.

"You're right." Louis laughed softly, "You asked why we are not as careful as mom... Maybe this is why mom is the favorite of Hogwarts?"

As he spoke, Louis also noticed that Professor Snape and Sirius were both wearing new robes today.

The most rare thing was that the two of them did not have a fight today. Instead, they sat together and chatted and laughed for the first time ever. However, Professor Snape was very meticulous, and it was only Sirius who was laughing unilaterally.

Perhaps because today was a happy day, the two of them didn't think about having a fight like Tom and Jerry.

It seems that he is not talking about Snape's embarrassing moments in the past, otherwise, Snape's expression might not be so meticulous.

But Louis was sure that the hat Professor McGonagall was wearing was definitely not given by his mother. After all, his mother's aesthetic taste was not so cruel and brutal...

I really don’t know why a meticulous person like Professor Cat Cat has such a bad aesthetic sense... Maybe when Merlin opens a door for you (Transfiguration), he will close a window for you (aesthetics)?
Tom and Jerry also came to Hogwarts today. Sakuya took them to eat at the faculty seats nearby, as they would be asked to perform on stage soon.

Everyone finished eating while talking and laughing. Dumbledore stood up and told the students to stand up as well. Then he waved his wand and made all the tables fly to the wall, leaving a vacant space in the middle.

With a wave of his hand, he conjured up a tall stage next to the right wall, on which were placed a drum set, several guitars, a lute...also known as a harp, a cello and several organs.

At this point, one of the most famous bands in Wizardry, the Weird Sisters, came on stage together, and the audience burst into thunderous applause.

If I had to make an analogy, it would be the Beatles of the wizarding world. Maybe, since Louis wasn't too familiar with wizarding music anyway.

Their hair is extremely thick, as if they haven't evolved completely. It would be fine if they just had thick hair, but they also wear black robes that are torn into tatters on purpose, which is a bit unsightly.

The Weird Sisters walked over to their instruments and picked up their own, while at the same time, the lights on the other tables went out, leaving only the lights on the dance floor.

The warriors stood up and walked to the dance floor.

"Let's go, we're going to dance too." Catherine stood up and stretched out her delicate hand to Louis. "My dear boy, may I have the honor to invite you to dance with me?"

"My mother said that the women down the mountain are tigers. You must avoid them if you meet them..." Louis deliberately pretended to be scared.

"Hmph, if you keep dawdling, I'm really going to eat you!" Catherine made a fierce expression.

Louis stood up, smiled and walked over to her, whispering in her crystal ear: “If it’s you, I’ll admit it even if it’s a tiger.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Harry beside him fell down.

He quickly dusted himself off with the help of Lilastrasza and said awkwardly, "Uh, I stepped on my robe. How embarrassing..."

"It's okay. As long as you're not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed." Louis patted his head and said with a smile, "Go quickly, don't be stage fright."

Harry nodded and looked back at the Gryffindor seats. As expected, those good brothers were all laughing, especially Ron and Seamus, who were laughing so hard that their stomachs were visible.

This is what a bad friend is.

He was actually very angry at first, but then he saw Ron's ears being pulled by Hermione and he was dragged over to dance, and all of a sudden he felt very balanced.

"You have come to this day, Ron?" When the two men came closer, Harry smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.

Ron gave Harry a sullen look, muttered something, and fell silent.

He couldn't afford to offend Hermione, he really couldn't afford to offend Hermione, and Harry couldn't refute it either. After all, he was the one who made fun of Harry first, and now he was being laughed at in return, so he could only bear it.

Louis couldn't help but gloat over his misfortune. He looked at Hermione and asked with a smile, "Why, Hermione, I see you are becoming more and more like a lioness. Are you interested in taking over Professor McGonagall's class after graduation?"

"Oh my God, Louis, please stop talking..." Hermione covered her face, her face flushed red, "I just, ah, was just a little anxious just now. The dance has already started, and he just sits there grinning like a fool..."
