Public Enemy Number One, Lucas Grindelwald!

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that everyone was looking in his direction, Lucas looked at his robes curiously, thinking that maybe there was something wrong with his clothes.

"Mr. Grindelwald, please look behind you."

His body turned around upon hearing that and he was instantly mesmerized by Hermione who was descending the stairs.

Seeing him like this, Cho and Ginny looked at each other and smiled, then high fives each other for a job well done.

It was not in vain that they prepared for three hours, more than half of that time was actually spent taming Hermione's hair.

"Talk slowly, we will meet later."

After Cho finished speaking, she led Ginny into the great hall.

Lucas just nodded slightly and didn't answer them, because all his attention was still on Hermione.

The lavender blue dress, combined with the guardian heart necklace, made Hermione look even better.

The long, smooth brown hair was pulled into a noble bun at this moment. The face with a little powder and slight makeup touches enhanced her beauty to a whole new level.

Hermione hid all her bookishness today, because she really wanted to show her beauty in front of her boyfriend.

"Beautiful lady, it is my greatest luck to be your boyfriend. I think I must be hallucinating, aren't fairies supposed to be really small?"

Looking at Lucas' outstretched palm and hearing those corny words, Hermione chuckled and put her hand on top of his.

"To be your girlfriend, I also feel honored."

Just when the two walked down the steps hand in hand, Professor McGonagall came out of the great hall.

She was wearing a red dress robe today, and a pointed hat decorated with a wreath of thistles.

Lucas even noticed that she let her hair down, which is incredibly rare.

Since entering school, Lucas has never seen Professor McGonagall with her hair down, she always wears it in a tight bun.

"Very good, stand up quickly when all the people are here, and line up two by two."

After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, she began to adjust their formation.

She was also taken aback when she saw Hermione.

"Very well, you are the last to enter, the grand finale!" Professor McGonagall said with a smile.

"The gate will open from the inside later, and there will be entrance music playing, you will enter the venue after hearing the music, do you understand?"

Seeing everyone nodding to express their understanding, Professor McGonagall returned to the great hall with ease.

While there was still some time, Lucas carefully observed the other champions' dance partners.

Both Krum and Cedric appear to have chosen girls from their School and House respectively as their partners.

While Harry still chose Parvati as his partner just like in the original book. It's just that unlike the original, Parvati doesn't seem very happy.

As for Fleur, her partner was the most unexpected. Looking at Luna Lovegood who looked back at him, Lucas was very puzzled how the two met.

And is it really fine if the partner is not of the opposite gender?

Before he could figure it out, the door of the great hall was opened from the inside.

The entrance music started and the ten people outside the door puffed out their chests and walked towards the great hall.

There was warm applause and cheers, and along with that came the voice of Ludo Bagman.

"Five champions and their partners enter the stage, oh Merlin, who is Mr. Grindelwald's dance partner? Is she a student of the three schools?"

Hermione's change was amazing tonight.

Even Fleur, who is a Veela, couldn't compare, it's just that everyone was already somewhat used to her beauty, and Hermione's change was too exaggerated.

When she heard the wizards on both sides exclaiming because of her beauty, Hermione frowned slightly.

She didn't like the feeling of being watched like this, but she really liked the way Lucas looked at her when he saw her.

To avoid embarrassment, she had no choice but to distract herself. Only then did she notice that the appearance of the great hall had changed again.

A lot of gleaming silver frost appeared on the surrounding walls at some point

The ceiling was turned into a beautiful starry night sky. There are also many beautiful garlands and decorations floating in the air.

The four long tables disappeared somewhere. Instead, they were replaced by small round tables.

Small candles were also lit on the round tables, setting off the atmosphere just right.

After observing the layout of the room, she also followed Lucas to the middle of the great hall.

The Weird Sisters appeared on the stage, took out their instruments, and a burst of soft music sounded.

Accompanied by the music, Lucas' hand was naturally placed on Hermione's waist.

By tradition, the champions need to lead the first dance. Accompanied by the music, five couples danced lightly.

Harry looked awkwardly at his feet, worried that he might step on Parvati's feet.

But the more he worried, the more mistakes he started to make.

Parvati endured the severe pain from her feet and continued dancing with a smile on her face, which made Harry feel even more guilty.

The more guilty he was, the less he wanted to make mistakes, and in the end he kept making even more mistakes.

It's just a vicious circle.

As for Cedric, as a child of a wizard family, his dancing was pretty good.

It's just that neither he nor his dance partner showed any expression, the two didn't even make eye contact.

It seemed more like the two of them got together to complete a task only.

Krum's situation was also similar to that of Cedric.

It's just that he wasn't as graceful at dancing as he was on top of a broom, so his movements looked very silly.

And his eyes were always on Lucas, the hatred in his eyes could be seen by everyone.

On Fleur's side, she and Luna were busy talking and laughing, and they seemed to have a good relationship.

It's just that there was zero romance between the two, so everyone's eyes turned to the last couple.

Hermione had her arms around Lucas' neck as the two danced to the music.

"My dear, thank you, I am very happy."

"What are you talking about, I should be the happiest person at the moment, thank you for pampering me these past few years."

Lucas whispered in her ear.

Without Hermione's acquiescence, there would be no Cho or Ginny in his life.

Lucas understood this very well, and so did Cho and Ginny. So usually the two girls would only follow Hermione's lead.

That's why they didn't try to fight for this chance, and handed over the position of Yule Ball date to Hermione.

Just like Cho said.

At this moment, the only one who can stand beside Lucas is Hermione, and only Hermione.

Listening to her boyfriend's soft voice, Hermione's eyes gradually became moist.

"You, just make us worry less in the future, no matter what you do, we will support you."

"But please think carefully before making any decisions, because behind you, there are three girls waiting for you."

After she finished speaking, the music just ended.

Hermione wiped away her tears and said, "They're still waiting for you, I'll fix my makeup and be right back."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked out.

The second piece of music started playing and everyone around them also entered the dance floor.

Lucas came to Cho and Ginny.

"Miss Cho Chang, can I ask you for a dance?"

Cho stood up with a smile, and Lucas said to Ginny next to him, "Don't worry about this beautiful lady, I'm only borrowing her for a while, you will have your date back safe and sound."

"Hmph!" Ginny rolled her eyes gracefully.

Lucas and Cho enter the dance floor laughing.

For Cho, her heart was full of gratitude.

Lucas also thanked her for the reminder, and for her tolerance. No surprises there, Cho was also moved by his words.

When the second song was over, Cho immediately ran out the door to fix her makeup.

Hermione, who had been back for some time, took Ginny's hand and led her to Lucas.

"It seems that you intend to move us all to tears today, what a bad guy!"

Handing Ginny to Lucas, Hermione went to look for Cho again.

Seeing Lucas and Ginny dancing, the boys around looked at him full of resentment.

No wonder really.

The three girls were all wearing dresses tailored for them by Lucas today.

The dresses designed by famous dress masters magnify the temperament of the three of them.

In addition, the three girls were already beautiful, but now their beauty has become unmatched.

But such three beautiful girls happened to be Lucas' girlfriends.

How couldn't it make other men angry?

Even Lucas himself would have felt very angry if someone else was in his current position.

At this point the professors also entered the dance floor.

For Dumbledore's first dance, he chose the enormous Madame Maxime.

Even though he himself is quite tall, he still barely reached her chin with his pointed hat. The two danced together as if a mother was leading a young son.

The fake Moody also chose to enter the dance floor in order not to expose himself.

It's just that his prosthetic leg made Professor Sinistra, who was dancing with him, look quite nervous.

She was probably worried that Moody would not pay attention and stomp on her feet with the prosthetic leg made of metal.

The melodious music soon ended and Ginny also rushed out to fix her makeup.

Seeing Lucas walking towards them, Hermione and Cho gave him the same look and rolled their eyes in unison.

Hermione was very worried about Ginny leaving alone, so she got up again and left the great hall to follow her. Then Cho said that she wanted to chat with their little sister.

Lucas, who became a loner, sat helplessly at the round table.

Looking at the menu, he chose a steak to fill his belly.

But before he could pick up the knife and fork, Fleur's voice came from beside him

"Mr. Grindelwald, may I invite you to a dance?"

"Of course, it's my pleasure."

It's not that he didn't see the piercing eyes all around, but he decided to ignore them and still put his palm on Fleur's waist.

Feeling the temperature of his palm, Fleur's face was as red as a tomato.

"Now there should be many people envious of me, or even hate me."

Fleur looked at him suspiciously, not understanding what he meant, so he explained with a smile: "Because I'm dancing with the beautiful Miss Fleur, it's normal for everyone to be jealous."

Hearing the praise from the boy who was several years younger than her, the blush on her face became even more conspicuous.

Ron sat at the round table eating angrily, staring at Lucas's hand that was close to Fleur's behind.

"Damn it, why is it Grindelwald again, isn't three enough?"

"Harry, we have to warn him, he's an embarrassment to us at Hogwarts."

Harry smiled and said nothing, then he turned to look at the Gryffindor students next to him.

They were all seventh years, and they were looking at Lucas at the moment, and even though he didn't know what they were discussing, just looking at their eyes, he knew it shouldn't be a good thing.

Did he want to warn Lucas?

The idea just came up, but he quickly shook his head.

'Forget it, Lucas is so powerful, he shouldn't be afraid of these troubles.'

And on the other side, Astoria sat on the chair and looked at Fleur enviously.

"That looks so nice."

"If you also want to dance, just like that girl from Beauxbatons, take the initiative to invite the Chief, I don't think he will refuse."

'He's an insatiable beast after all.' Daphne added in her mind.

Hearing what her sister said, Astoria shook her head quickly, but her eyes suddenly brightened, and Daphne immediately knew she must have thought of some plan in her mind.

When the song ended, Lucas let go of Fleur's slender waist.

Looking at her reddish cheeks, he smiled.

"You dance very well."

Fleur took a deep breath and said, "You are the same, but someone is waiting for you in the rose garden outside the castle. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you go late, you will definitely regret it!"
