Cedric Diggory, the man of the hour in Hufflepuff, is the well-deserved number one in the fourth grade. Even Slytherin in the same grade thinks so. He can easily get O (excellent) in any subject. ). Every professor who taught him, even as strict as Professor Snape, praised him highly.
He is a boy full of reason, talent and elegant demeanor.
It has the reputation of being "everything one would expect from a Hogwarts student."
He is extremely popular in Hufflepuff House and is known as the pride of the entire Hufflepuff House.
Equivalent to Dudley's reputation in Slytherin House.
In the plot of the original "Goblet of Fire", when students from other colleges wore the "Potter Stink" badge because they misunderstood that Harry had used despicable means to become a warrior, he immediately advised his friends to take off the badge.
When Harry told Cedric what he knew about the first game, Cedric continued to promote the quality of fairness and harmony, reminding Harry of the decryption method of the second project in order to achieve fair competition.
Excellent, stubborn and full of justice.
It was precisely because of this that Dudley chose him as the first assessment target of the disciplinary team. These qualities in him were exactly what the disciplinary team needed.
In one of the rooms in Slytherin House, most of the contents had been removed, leaving only an empty room except for a table.
"Your spell skills are very solid. Your defense against black magic is also very good. You also have your own unique insights into transfiguration. What you lack now is constant practice and enough time to grow."
Dudley stood in front of Cedric and gave a brief review of each subject, while Hermione sat at the table behind him and recorded something on parchment.
He was very optimistic about Cedric, he was really good.
"Compared to you, I'm still a little bit behind." Cedric said breathlessly.
His hand holding the wand was shaking slightly, and his forehead, face, and body were covered with sweat. It was obvious that he was very tired.
In fact, Dudley didn't take action at all when facing Cedric.
The examiner was not Dudley himself at all, and certainly not Hermione.
Strictly speaking, that's not a human being at all.
Instead, it was a Cornish elf flying in mid-air between the two of them.
Pixie.
"Snapped"
Pixie snapped her fingers, and a small whirlwind immediately blew up.
"Last test, find a way to calm it down, I guess that'll be easy for you."
"Yes." Cedric raised his wand again.
As an all-around student, Cedric is also very good at magical biology, and of course he knows what level of magical creatures the Cornish elves are.
Nothing but mischief.
Something that can be killed instantly with just a small spell can actually be cultivated into such a powerful creature.
Cedric believed that the Cornish elf in front of him was the most powerful magical creature he had ever seen.
I really don't know how he did it.
I can only say that he is worthy of being the king of Slytherin.
The small whirlwind was not very powerful, and it didn't take much effort for Cedric to calm it down.
"Come back, Pixie, you did a great job."
The red light shone on the Cornish elf and disappeared in front of the three people. He placed the red and white ball on his waist and it was automatically attached to it.
Dudley turned to look at Cedric: "Congratulations on passing the test. You will be a member of the disciplinary team from now on. I hope you can contribute to the construction of Hogwarts."
"Mr. Dursley, thank you very much for your guidance."
Cedric bowed to Dudley and said from the bottom of his heart: "I will definitely live up to your expectations of me."
His tone and demeanor were extremely respectful, as if he were facing a professor.
"Your talent is very good, don't waste it." Dudley patted Cedric on the shoulder and encouraged him in the tone of a senior speaking to a junior.
Obviously Dudley was two years younger than him, and Cedric was the senior, but to outsiders, this scene seemed very harmonious and not awkward at all.
Even Cedric, the person involved, took it for granted.
"Compared with you, it's nothing."
"We will meet on the lawn outside Hogwarts Castle at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. I think you should know."
"yes."
"Dudley, I have compiled his information and can hand it over to Principal Dumbledore at any time."
Hermione handed a thick stack of parchments into Dudley's hands. These were all information about Cedric.
"You've been such a help to me, Hermione."
As a secretary, Hermione is undoubtedly excellent and top-notch.
Every detail can be taken care of in an orderly manner, and Dudley hardly needs to worry about it.
"Do you really want him to join?"
"Of course, we alone are not enough for the disciplinary team, and we are too busy. We need to attract more outstanding talents."
Of course Dudley would not say that as long as there were enough outstanding talents, he could just be "lazy".
Fighting alone is always inferior. No matter how powerful and powerful the magic is, haven't you seen that the famous dark wizard Grindelwald also has his supporters "Grindelwald Army" (not called "Saints")? The Dark Lord Voldemort also has Death Eaters following him?
In fact, there is a reason why Cedric was chosen first.
On the one hand, he is excellent, and on the other hand, it is because he is a Hufflepuff. Even Hufflepuff can join the discipline group, so why can't the other three houses?
After coming out of the principal's office, Dudley walked directly towards the dormitory. The ruby-like ring on his index finger was emitting a faint red light.
Gently push open the door to the room.
Then he saw what appeared to be a small and skinny creature trapped in the refining formation that he had constructed by combining the transformation of magic equipment.
The creature had ears as big as a bat, protruding eyes the size of tennis balls, and a big, long, pointed nose like Pinocchio.
There was no doubt that this was a house elf.
The same existence as the one hundred or so house elves in the Hogwarts kitchen.
It is said that the prototype of the house elf is the brown elf in Scottish legend. He is a kind of brown elf who always wears brown rags. He hopes to live in harmony with humans and will help humans with housework, but they cannot be paid, otherwise they will disappear. , and you can't refuse to pay, as the elves will disappear if you don't pay.
When the other party saw that Dudley had discovered him, he kept snapping his fingers as if he wanted to cast a spell and leave.
However, this formation was specially designed by Dudley to target the house elf's magical qualities. It could suppress the magic in his body and block his spellcasting.
Dudley looked at the trapped house elf and said sarcastically.
"I didn't expect house elves to be part-time thieves."
