"Anyway, don't cause any trouble to the school."
When Draco said this to Pansy, his eyes were a little cold.
To be honest, after experiencing so many things, Draco is very different now from the past. Although he seemed to be very low-key in the past, it was out of fear of Maka.
If he had that ability, based on his past personality, he would definitely be a person who would retaliate against others.
But now, he sincerely put aside many distracting thoughts. Even though there was still some Slytherin-specific unscrupulousness in his character, Maka's helping hand and his parents' love finally made him understand one truth:
People can be shrewd and cunning, and they may not even be unable to fall into evil, but they still need to have a bottom line.
"I don't know what exactly you encountered, and I don't know what is putting pressure on you. But don't let Hogwarts get into trouble-" Draco frowned slightly and said seriously, "Because, I want to Study here and graduate from here.”
After that, Draco said something to Pansy again, and then they left from there.
Naturally, Maka didn't know what the two talked about. He only saw that when the two quickly returned to the Slytherin stand from the stairs, Pansy's expression seemed a little complicated.
Of course, that's much better than the uneasiness at the beginning.
But other than that, there were no other changes between the two of them - especially Draco. After he sat back in his original position, he still looked at the field as indifferently as before.
The sun was very bright, shining on his head, giving his blond hair a shimmering dazzling light.
"I don't know if Snape has noticed the situation between the two of them... Well, I'd better go and talk to the professor after the game is over!"
Maka looked at the two from a distance for a while, then returned her gaze to the direction of Hermione and Luna. The two of them were still chasing each other at a very high flying speed as before.
The only difference was that it was Luna who was leading the flight at this time.
Compared with Hermione's endless technical moves, Luna almost always chooses the most dull but most efficient flying method.
While steadily maintaining the lead, since she no longer had to keep an eye on Hermione all the time, she was finally able to focus more on searching for the Golden Snitch.
However, they saw the two of them flying up and down in the high altitude, drawing arcs one after another. As their clothes moved, their speed gradually approached the highest speed that the broom under them could reach.
Gradually, Luna flew lower and lower with Hermione, and finally she almost blended into the offensive and defensive battle between the chasers in the stadium.
The roar of the Bludger slowly became clearer.
"Does Luna think the Golden Snitch will be here?"
It is not a wise move for Seekers to get involved in the battle between Chasers and Beaters - as they get too close to the Beaters, Bludgers pose an increasing threat to them. .
And the moment Hermione thought this, the batsman of their Gryffindor team, Richie Gut, had already noticed Luna and Hermione descending from the sky.
So, he decisively pressed the broom handle and rushed towards a Bludger not far away from him.
"Luna, watch your front right!"
Ravenclaw's Qiu reacted quickly and predicted Gut's hitting position in advance.
After she shouted this, Gryffindor's Richie Gut had just flown to his position, swung his bat and swung the Bludger flying towards him.
"Bang!"
This blow was so powerful that the Bludger that was flying around in the air suddenly changed its direction after he hit it and flew straight to several positions in front of Luna.
However, because Luna got Qiu's warning first, she flicked the broom handle and slightly changed the flight path.
The next second, the Bludger flew past her side at high speed, grazing her long pale blond hair that was tied up but still flying in the air and flew away.
"Luna! Don't come this way, stay away from the batter!"
He heard Qiu shouting again, signaling Luna not to get closer to the goal.
Although the tactics of the Quidditch match also include the seeker participating in the interference attack, they have not practiced this skill, so this will affect the cooperation of the chasers.
"Oh!" Luna quickly shouted back, "We'll leave right away! But we may have to wait a little longer—"
After that, she continued to fly up and down in the midfield, even flying more messily than before. The Bludger would occasionally fly past her or Hermione behind her, causing the little wizards to break into a cold sweat.
"What on earth is she doing? Could it be that... did she really find the snitch over there?"
More and more people think this way. After all, if this wasn't the case, why did she have to stay in the place where the two teams were most aggressive and defensive for so long
However, just because the audience thinks so, it does not mean that the players on both sides also think so.
They were much closer than the little wizards sitting in the stands. Especially the several chasers concentrated near the midfield, none of them saw any trace of the Golden Snitch.
Just like that, amidst everyone's confusion, Luna and Hermione writhed around the midfield for a while.
When the two of them suddenly turned their heads and looked in a certain direction at the same time, everyone saw that they both turned around and sprinted that way.
And in the direction the two of them were staring at, an almost invisible golden light passed through the air and fell to the ground at an extremely fast speed.
That's the Golden Snitch!
In today's game, the Snitch appeared much earlier than everyone expected, so much so that the current score was only 30 to 40, with Ravenclaw only slightly ahead.
"Wow-"
This time, Hermione discovered the Snitch's location earlier. Even if it was only a little earlier than Luna, it was enough for her to get closer to the latter.
However, Luna showed no sign of weakness and followed closely two positions behind Hermione, never relaxing for a moment.
It can be seen that as the Snitch rapidly descended to a height of only a few feet above the lawn, both of them had to follow it close to the ground again and again.
As they flew one after another over the lush spring grass, the airflow caused by the high speed seemed to split the lawn, causing the grass blades to bend.
Most of the little wizards in the stands hurriedly leaned toward the railings at the edge of the platform and looked down as much as possible.
Of course, the Golden Snitch is not so easy to catch up with.
The two of them moved forward quickly after the golden light, adjusting their direction as the snitch turned, sometimes higher and sometimes lower, but never too far from the ground.
To be honest, even if they were wearing protective gear, this scene looked quite dangerous.
"I hope they don't have to go to Madam Pomfrey's after the game." Professor McGonagall also looked at the situation on the field with a worried look. Looking at her like that, he probably couldn't help but pull out the wand.
However, this is actually quite common in Quidditch matches, and this sport can indeed be "barbaric" at times.
There is usually a saying among teams that "any player who has not broken bones on the field will not be a good player." Although this statement sounds like it comes from Gryffindor, it actually makes a lot of sense.
However, no matter how frightened the audience in the stands were, Hermione and Luna forgot everything because of the fierce competition and chase. In their eyes, there was only the golden streak in front of them, and nothing else.
The oncoming strong wind blew their cheeks and caused their hair to sway in mid-air. Under the protective gear, the corners of the team uniforms swayed in the wind, making a rustling sound.
After the two devoted themselves to chasing each other, the distance between them and the snitch kept getting closer. Maybe it won't be long before Hermione, who is one step ahead, will have a chance to take action.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the golden light suddenly changed its direction and headed towards the bleachers diagonally behind the staff seats, and then flew straight to the top of the high platform close to the hanging cloth. .
This inverted flight gave Luna, who had been slightly behind, another turnaround. And she did not miss this opportunity. When she turned the broom, she spun up and rose into the sky against the hanging cloth under the high platform.
Although Hermione made no mistake, because the Snitch's actions would indeed put Luna in an advantage, she could only end up in a position of keeping pace with it.
You could see the two of them clinging to the support of the high platform and rushing upwards at extremely fast speeds.
Maka, who had just moved to the railing to take a look, saw this and now had to take a small step back to prevent the Golden Snitch from hitting his face directly.
Then, he saw a golden light leading two extremely fast figures, suddenly flying past him in succession, soaring into the sky like Muggle rockets.
The strong wind brought by the rapid passing made his robes flutter slightly with every sound.
"Oh!" Maka raised her neck and couldn't help but sigh, "To be honest, the two of them flew really well today."
"Yeah!" Slughorn next to him also stood up and said happily, "But speaking of it, I was not a bad flyer when I was young... Well, what I like most is the cheers of the girls in the stands. Got it!"
Putting aside the shameless old man's self-promotion, Maka thought of the Wronsky fake move Hermione gave up just now and Luna's scurrying around in the field.
No matter what the two people were fighting about, he was no longer worried about the outcome - because judging from the attitude of the two people in this game, he knew that it would definitely be a good ending.
Shaking her head secretly, Maka sat back on her seat, and a reassuring smile suddenly appeared on her raised face.
