Chapter 233: I thank you
Chapter 233 Thank you
It was only then that everyone in the auditorium reacted.
What did they hear just now...an out-of-control werewolf?
Even freshmen know how scary werewolves are after this year of study.
As mentioned when learning the werewolf code of conduct, it is a 5X level. After transformation, the werewolf is ferocious, agile, and extremely powerful, and will pose a fatal danger to wizards.
Even many adult wizards and even Ministry of Magic strikers cannot deal with werewolves. That has always been the job of Aurors.
They really can’t imagine how Kyle did it...
At the Gryffindor table, Ron and Harry had already widened their eyes.
Ever since the truth came out, they have always had this expression.
They are still memorizing werewolf behavioral rules, but Kyle can already tear a werewolf apart. The gap is a bit too big.
Hermione was a little better. She had thought before that the person who received the medal might be Kyle, so there wasn't much surprise.
No matter what other people thought, at the guest of honor, Dumbledore had already accepted and opened the box handed by Doug McPhail.
Inside is an exquisite golden medal and a purple ribbon.
The colors of the ribbons for each level of the Order of Merlin are also different. The first level is green, the second level is purple, and the third level is white.
It’s just that this thing should be standard. It seems a bit big on Kyle’s body, almost diagonally from the left shoulder to the calf.
If this were red...it would be so festive.
Dumbledore moved his fingers slightly and instantly changed it to a suitable size.
“Thank you for everything, kid.” Dumbledore solemnly handed the golden medal to Kyle.
"Thank you for your teaching, Professor." Kyle reached out and shook Dumbledore's hand gently.
…
If someone were standing outside the auditorium at this moment, they might think there was an explosion.
The cheers from the four houses grew louder and louder. At the Hufflepuff dining table, Mikel and Ryan stood on their stools and cheered loudly, eager to tell everyone that Kyle was their roommate.
Even Cedric and Connor, who had always been calm, jumped up and down at the dining table excitedly.
Dumbledore did not interrupt them again this time.
It wasn’t until everyone’s hands were numb and their voices were hoarse from shouting that the deafening cheers gradually subsided.
"As the principal of Hogwarts..." At this time, Dumbledore continued: "I will award Hufflepuff House two hundred points, and Kyle will also receive the Special Contribution to the School Award again."
The crowd, which had been quiet for a while, became noisy again.
The decoration in the auditorium has returned to its previous appearance, but not many people in Gryffindor felt sorry for it.
Just like Harry and the others who added 150 points to Gryffindor, there was no problem with Kyle's extra points this time.
Some people even think that two hundred points is too little. That is the Order of Merlin, and it is still second level... at least five hundred points must be added.
Principal Dumbledore is too stingy.
At the end of the ceremony, Dumbledore also asked Kyle to stand in his place and gave a speech.
Kyle cleared his throat.
“Then I’ll just say a few words…”
Since he was in a hurry to eat, Kyle did not make a long speech. He just talked about some methods to improve learning efficiency and suggestions on vigorously developing the harmonious campus of Hogwarts.
However, most students were not interested in this, and only a small number of them listened carefully.
For example, Hermione not only listened very carefully, she even wrote down all these words word for word.
And Neville... He also wanted to write it down, but when he finished writing the first sentence, he forgot all the rest. At the end of his speech, Kyle also made a small wish.
He hopes that there will be no more casualties for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts next year and that he can survive until the end of the next school year.
Everyone laughed tacitly, and even the wizards who came as guests couldn't help but shake their heads.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts gets into trouble every year. It is no longer a secret in the wizarding world. Of course they know it.
This time of year is also when Dumbledore is least popular.
He is like a mountain monster that stinks all over. He is disliked and unwelcome. No matter where he goes, he will be rejected.
In order to prevent Dumbledore from visiting, some people would even run away to seek refuge in other countries before Hogwarts was on vacation, and then stay until the semester started in September.
“Oh, it looks like we have to go back quickly in a while. It will be bad if we get caught up in him.”
McPhail smiled and half-jokingly said to Sasia who was sitting next to him: "I'm old. It's okay to help award medals. I'd better forget about being a professor."
“That’s right, this job is too dangerous.”
Sacia also covered her mouth and chuckled: "We also thought about whether to prepare a separate area for those defense professors."
Beside him, Dumbledore blushed and glared at Kyle angrily.
You little bastard, what are you talking about?
After Kyle finished speaking, the long-delayed banquet began.
Kyle, who returned to the Hufflepuff table, became the focus of everyone's attention. Little wizards kept coming over to congratulate him on winning the Order of Merlin.
So much so that Kyle didn’t even take a few bites of rice, but he was almost full from the pumpkin juice.
“You actually hid it from us...”
After a long time, the congratulatory crowd gradually dispersed. Cedric said with a straight face: "Before this, we didn't even know you had been to St. Mungo's!"
"I don't know that I can really win the Order of Merlin." Kyle explained: "And the matter is over, even if I say it, it will only make you worry."
“What you said is wrong, we are friends.” Kangna wrinkled her nose and said, “Isn’t it normal to worry about your friends?”
"That's right, so even if you say that, I can't forgive you." Cedric said in a cold tone: "Unless you swear that you won't hide it from us again when you encounter danger in the future!"
"What you said is too much." Kyle glanced at him angrily: "It sounds like I am often in danger."
“Hmm…isn’t it?” Cedric raised his eyebrows:
“In addition to St. Mungo’s…the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor incidents in the past two years are also related to you. Also, you don’t know where to go during the Quidditch match, and…”
"Okay, I promise you!" Kyle quickly interrupted him and said decisively: "I swear on Dumbledore's beard!"
Cedric laughed again.
"That's right...congratulations on winning the Order of Merlin." He raised a glass of pumpkin juice.
“Congratulations!” Kangna also raised her glass.
Looking at the cups in their hands, which were much larger than the others, and the cups full of pumpkin juice in their hands, Kyle's face turned green, and he felt his stomach churn.
“You did it on purpose!”
"Hahaha!"
Cedric then laughed happily, "Who told you to hide this from us? This is your punishment."
Kanna also smiled, "But for the sake of you regaining the Academy Cup for us, we allow you to drink it later."
“Haha…” Kyle rubbed his belly:
“I thank you!”
