The Quidditch Final Begins, Peter Pettigrew Appears!

The next day was cloudy with very little wind.

The weather is perfect for watching a Quidditch match.

The students left the castle early to occupy seats on the Quidditch pitch.

The reason why they have such great enthusiasm is because Lucas Grindelwald, recognized as the best Seeker in the school, is going to play this match.

Lucas has played less and less in the last two years, he played only once last year.

And this match is destined to be the only one of this year he plays in.

Some people were jokingly saying that maybe next year he won't play at all. They didn't know how true it was, because next year with the Triwizard tournament there won't be any Quidditch.

"Hermione, hurry up please, or we won't get a good position."

Cho took Hermione's hand and ran towards the field and beside the two, Ginny was also trotting along.

Seeing the excited expression on Ginny's face, Hermione asked helplessly: "Ginny, aren't you a Gryffindor reserve player? Is it really okay not to go with your team?"

"Don't worry, I've already asked for leave."

The three of them hurried forward, and when they arrived at the stands, most of the good positions were taken up.

Hermione stared dumbfounded at the exaggerated atmosphere around her.

"No way, isn't it just a final? Why do they make it so grand?"

Looking ook around.

The students of the four Houses all supported the players in their own unique ways.

The badgers of Hufflepuff wove a huge support banner with various flowers and plants, and there is a picture of Lucas flying through the sky on a broomstick.

At the bottom of the banner there is a sentence that says "Beat up Potter, no mercy!"

Although badgers usually don't cause trouble, it can be seen from this that they really hold grudges.

A few months have passed, and these people have not forgotten what happened back then when Cedric fell and Harry didn't help him.

The support method of the Ravenclaws is the most common banners with only writing on them.

It's just that these words cheering for Lucas are very eye-catching.

And on the other side, Gryffindor's support methods are full of tricks.

Banners, fireworks, loudspeakers, they use anything they can think of.

Slytherins are much more relaxed. The snakes are very confident in their Chief and firmly believe that the champion will be Slytherin House.

The staff stand was also full of people.

Lucius Malfoy, Mrs. Zabini, and even Minister Fudge were in attendance.

These people all heard that Lucas was going to be on the stage, and they came here specially to support him.

And at this time.

Ron, who came late, took his rat along to the stands.

As soon as he appeared, Remus noticed Peter Pettigrew in his hand.

Originally planned to catch him now, but he was blocked by Hagrid's huge body.

When he tried to approach Ron again, the ginger had already walked to the other side of the stands and there were countless people between the two.

Remus suppressed his agitation and forced himself to calm down.

He has to be careful not to scare the rat away, it will not be easy to catch Peter Pettigrew if he escapes.

Right now it was more important to get Sirius ready.

After clearing his thoughts, Remus slowly exited the stands.

Not long after Remus left, the door to the player tunnel was opened.

Slytherin and Gryffindor, old rivals, flew around the field.

Lucas made his appearance and received cheers from the audience.

On the other side of the Gryffindor team, the cheers were much smaller.

Basically only the Gryffindors cheered for the Gryffindor team.

Fudge, as the Minister of Magic, was sitting in the best seat.

He looked at the Seekers in both teams with appreciation in the eyes.

"I didn't expect Mr. Grindelwald and Mr. Potter to be so excellent, Mr. Malfoy, who do you think will win?"

"Of course Lucas, he's the best Seeker."

Minister Fudge turned to Dumbledore again.

"What do you think, Dumbledore?"

"Me? I think both of them have the possibility of winning."

While the three were talking, the two teams had gathered in the middle of the pitch.

Looking at the Nimbus 2000 under Lucas, the Gryffindor players immediately raised their vigilance.

Two years ago, everyone experienced the power of this broom.

Harry gripped his broom even more tightly.

Judging by the current Gryffindor points.

If they can beat Slytherin by a large score, there is still hope for the championship.

So Wood assigned him the task before the opening to drag the game and not let Lucas catch the snitch.

Wait until Gryffindor gets a lot of points before making his own shot to get the Golden Snitch.

It's a good plan, but Lucas is now riding his Nimbus 2000, which makes the Gryffindor team lose a bit of their confidence.

"Come on, this is just a common Nimbus 2000, since there is a competition, of course it must be fair, right?"

Everyone in Gryffindor breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Lucas' words.

The strange thing is that no one doubted whether he was telling lies.

Seeing their reactions, Lucas smiled softly.

Then his eyes fell on Harry and saw that he was also holding a Nimbus 2000.

He just doesn't know where this broom came from.

Once the small talk was over.

Professor Rolanda Hooch also walked out from the staff passage.

When the chest containing the Quidditch balls was placed on the ground.

The eyes of the 14 players on both sides were on Professor Hooch.

"Very well, the 1993-1994 Hogwarts Quidditch Final begins now."

After Professor Hooch finished speaking, she opened the wooden box.

Then Lee Jordan's voice also came from the commentary booth.

"Just now, Professor Hooch has announced the start of this Quidditch final. Let us wait and see who will win in the end, go Gryffindor!"

As always, he was met with a glare from Professor McGonnagall right after.

The Gold Snitch and the Bludger took to the sky at the same time.

By convention, the Golden Snitch will stand in front of the two Seekers for a few seconds.

Probably to make the two of them focus on it.

But Lucas closed his eyes and didn't look at the Golden Snitch, which made Harry curious about it.

But there was no time for him to think, because Professor Hooch came between the two teams with the Quaffle.

The cheers of the audience stopped immediately.

Just at this extremely tense moment, an exclamation came from the stands.

"Dementor!"

The eyes of the audience were immediately attracted by the figure wearing black on the sidelines.

The players on both sides, including Professor Hooch, looked nervous.

Of course the most nervous one was Minister Fudge.

He stood up from the stands, pointed his wand to his throat, and gave orders to the dementor.

But the dementor didn't seem to be listening to him and just slid along the ground.

Its purpose seemed very clear, Harry Potter.

Harry looked at the approaching dementors and what happened after the previous two attacks suddenly appeared in his mind.

The first time he was attacked by a dementor and fainted, he became the laughing stock of the whole school.

The second time he was attacked, he also failed to escape the fate of being ridiculed, and incidentally became a stepping stone for Lucas Grindelwald's increased fame.

This third time, he will definitely not allow himself to suffer the same fate.

He suddenly pulled out his wand from his quidditch uniform. Pointing to the approaching dementor, he shouted loudly: "Expecto Patronum!"

Silver White light appeared.

There's no need to even compare it with Lucas Patronus.

It actually was no match for some of the first years in Slytherin.

For example, Astoria, she has been able to cast a corporeal Patronus for a while now.

The silver light formed a thin shield. Although it looked thin, it was enough to deal with a dementor.

Seeing that his Patronus Charm successfully pinned the Dementor to the ground.

Harry looked proudly at the stands around him.

Especially the staff stand where Dumbledore and Remus were, he wanted them to see his growth.

Professor Lupin, who just came back, happened to see the scene of Harry casting the Patronus Charm and gave him an appreciative look.

This made him even more proud. Then he turned back to look at Dumbledore, but he found that the Headmaster was frowning tightly, staring at the dementor on the ground.

Not just Dumbledore, but a lot of people on the field.

Before Harry figured out what was going on, Lucas came to him on a broom.

Judging from the Slytherin Chief's serious expression, it seems that there is something wrong with the dementor on the ground?
