The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 129: Awarding scene
Sir Merlin’s award ceremony is a special honor conferred by Sir Merlin on the three-level and above medals.
At this time, the members of Sir Merlin would gather to celebrate the joining of new members.
Of course, as the second-to-last three-level medal of the Merlin Medal, the scale of awards it can obtain is actually very small.
Generally speaking, this kind of small scene can have a few seniors who belong to the third level come to cheer, plus a second-level medal winner to personally award you the honor is already very decent.
The most unlucky thing should be the existence of Lockhart.
Lockhart's Merlin Lord Medal was actually obtained through the research and development of Advanced Forgetting Curse, and he himself was able to steal other people's stories unscrupulously by relying on Advanced Forgetting Curse.
Strictly speaking, he is also a genuine Merlin member.
However, due to his terrible reputation among the upper echelons of the magical world in the country, no member of Sir Merlin was present at all in his award ceremony.
Therefore, he can only entertain himself by holding the Merlin Class III medal sent by the owl to give himself an award.
In the end, he even posted a picture of himself with a medal on his chest and a grin in the Daily Prophet, which made the headlines the next day.
Link really has nothing to say about this, he can only say that, in terms of shame, Lockhart is definitely one of the best in the entire magical world.
But Lockhart's situation is only an exception. Link's award ceremony will naturally not be so shabby, especially when Link is the only son of the Foley family and the recommender is Dumbledore.
Ever since, when Link arrived at the auditorium at the Ministry of Magic according to the time on the invitation letter, he saw a lively scene like a Christmas dinner at Hogwarts.
Nearly hundreds of ‘Sir Merlin’ dressed in various dresses are gathering in the auditorium, speaking freely in different small circles.
I have to say that having quality is not the same.
Although so many people crowded into the auditorium to speak, everyone present was trying to keep their own voice down as much as possible.
This makes the entire auditorium seem less noisy at all.
"Link, don't be nervous, just do as we said before!"
Looking at the crowd in front of her, Mrs. Foley whispered to Link.
This made Link a little speechless, because now Mrs. Foley was trembling slightly with her fingers, and she looked a lot more nervous than him.
Of course, Link also knew that Mrs. Foley was not nervous, but excited.
Excited that his son has achieved such an achievement and his years of training have finally been proven.
"Mother, we should go in, or we'll be late."
Seeing Mrs. Foley's excitement, Link finally reminded him, which made Mrs. Foley wake up, hurriedly sorted out her expression, and led Link into the venue.
The atmosphere in the auditorium was still harmonious, and when the figures of Link and Mrs. Foley appeared in it, the atmosphere became more enthusiastic.
Almost all the people present gathered around and formed a circle of Link and Mrs. Foley. You said and I praised Link for his intelligence and talent.
Faced with such a scene, Link just kept nodding, even a smile on his face.
This is what Mrs. Foley said, ‘as it was said before’, and Link, who doesn’t like to play with others, agrees very much.
Mrs. Foley was very comfortable.
She dealt with everyone's flattery freely, and her attitude was neither cold nor hot. Compared with the enthusiasm of others, she could even be said to be a bit arrogant.
But everyone who received such a response from Mrs. Foley was not angry, because they knew very well that Mrs. Foley was such a person, and she was qualified to put such an attitude.
On the contrary, perhaps because Mrs. Foley is in a good mood today and occasionally smiles, those guys are still a little flattered.
And after these little guys greeted him, a fat man with a physique, who seemed harmless to humans and animals, was surrounded by Link.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Foley." The fat man saluted Mrs. Foley first, and then said to Link with a very contrived expression, "Oh! Are you Link? What a hero! "
After he said that, the fat man deliberately stood up and made Link notice a medal hanging on his chest.
It was a shield-shaped medal with a wand pattern in the middle. According to the wand pattern on it, it should be a first-class Merlin Medal.
Upon seeing this, Link immediately understood the identity of the fat man in front of him.
Among the surviving Merlin First Class Medal winners, only the current Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, can be so fat.
"Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Minister."
Link said neither humble nor overbearing.
This made Mrs. Foley on the side glanced at him in surprise.
She can't remember introducing Fudge to Link.
But Fudge felt that it was normal for Link to know himself.
He laughed and praised Link again. Seeing his appearance, he was quite old.
Fortunately, most people including Fudge are actually here today for Mrs. Foley, the current leader of the Foley family~lightnovelpub.net~, so after a few polite words, Fudge will be the center of the conversation. Put it on Mrs. Foley, and Link took this opportunity to escape from the crowd.
"call!"
Link exhaled a long breath.
When Fudge spoke just now, the full-bodied official voice and the consonance of the people around him licked the dog, so that Link could not help but recall the appearance of the old leaders at certain meetings in the previous life.
As for what the old leaders talked like, Link could only say that it was definitely a nightmare.
"Congratulations! Link!"
Just when Link was secretly glad that he didn't have to experience the horrible scene again, a familiar voice came into his ears.
When he heard the reputation, he saw Dumbledore looking at him with a smile not far away.
And beside him, there was an old man who looked about his age.
In the face of Dumbledore and the old man who looked as respected as Dumbledore, Link didn't dare to neglect and bowed directly and saluted:
"You praised, Principal Dumbledore, I also want to thank you for being my recommender."
"Don't say that," Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand. "As I said before, although I'm your recommender, I won't help you do things that violate Sir Merlin's principles. . You can get the Merlin Medal, which is completely good enough for yourself!"
Hearing this, Link nodded with a smile.
And just as he was about to continue his polite remarks, the old man beside Dumbledore pointed to the Hogwarts uniform that Link was wearing and said:
"Are you Hufflepuff?"
"That's right."
Link looked down at the bright yellow tie on his chest, and said with some confusion.
Hearing this, the old man laughed and pointed to himself and said:
"me too!"
