Chapter 158 Fearful Rita

Chapter 158 Fearful Rita

After the wand test, Dumbledore and other judges took a photo with the warriors, and then it was time for Rita's interview.

Fleur and Krum went first, and then it was Ike's turn.

In the specially prepared classroom, when Ike walked in, Rita trembled obviously.

"Mr. Strider, please take a seat."

Rita pushed up her glasses, her quill floating aside, but Ike could clearly feel his nervousness.

"Hello, Ms. Starkey."

Perhaps the bad taste broke out, Ike showed a standard "Dragon King's crooked mouth" expression, and in the next second, the floating quill fell to the ground.

"I... let's get started, Mr. Strider."

Rita forced herself to calm down and the quill flew up again.But this time, it was directly held in Ike's hand.

"It's a very magical gadget, Ms. Starkey." Ike played with the quill and looked directly at Rita, "But I don't think this thing is needed for this interview, right."

"Of course...as you wish."

Rita hurriedly took out the quill and ink from her handbag, put the notebook on her lap, and pushed up her glasses again.

"How does it feel to be a Hogwarts Champion?"

"Snapped!"

This time, both the quill and the notebook fell to the ground, just because Ike suddenly leaned forward and the hand holding the quill stretched forward.

"You seem to be afraid of me, Ms. Starkey." Ike said calmly.

"Hold... sorry, I..."

Ike raised his hand and interrupted Rita.He leaned back on the chair, crossed his legs, and said casually, "I believe you must have made a lot of preparations for this interview and have a certain understanding of me."

"And if the rumors I heard are not wrong, you have actually already made a plan in your mind." Ike, who played with the quill again, smiled, "It's just that you didn't know it before you saw me. I'm 'Ike Strider', right..."

Seeing Rita nodding her head crazily like a chicken pecking at rice, Ike tutted and said, "Don't be like that, I'm just a fourth-year wizard, and you are a well-known reporter in the magical world."

"To be honest, some of your articles are quite interesting. I like to read them."

Saying that, regardless of Rita's visible fear, Ike calmly bent down and picked up the quill and notebook on the ground, and put the one he was playing with into Rita's hand.

"You are a smart person, so you must understand that there are some things that cannot be written carelessly." Ike stood up, holding the back of Rita's chair with his hands, lowering his head slightly, and his voice suddenly became very low.

"You have memories of that night, right..."

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Rita's reply, Ike lightly patted Rita's shoulder and left directly.

It was an unexpected surprise. Before meeting Rita, Ike had forgotten that after the soul-stealing curse was lifted, the person who had been cursed would retain the memory of the period under the curse.And it was clear that the experience last year had frightened Rita.

It is certain that if she did not have to interview all four warriors, she would definitely not want to have any contact with Ike.

It just so happened that Ike didn't want any exaggerated or untrue content to appear in Rita's article that was about to be published in the Daily Prophet.

He doesn't object to interviews, but he hates things that are untrue.

Moreover, Ike was full of disgust towards this woman who loved to lie the most. Being able to scare her like this satisfied a little bit of his bad taste.

Sure enough, when Rita's article was published in the Daily Prophet, all the information about Ike was factual.Not much. Compared with the other three warriors, it can be said to be pitiful.

Harry occupies the largest space. A large number of things about his life experience, parents, study and life have been added to and distorted to fill the entire page.Krum, Fleur, and Ike were only briefly introduced, relegated to a corner with only a short paragraph.

Moreover, Xu had specifically investigated and found that Rita's article did not mention anything about Hermione at all, so there was no more "scandal" between Harry and Hermione.

It can be said that the world where only Harry was injured was finally achieved through Rita's article.

Malfoy was perhaps the happiest, often popping up next to Harry with the newspaper in hand and reading aloud its contents.

Every time, it can cause everyone to burst into laughter.

As for the authenticity of the content, who cares?

And soon, everyone's attention was attracted by other things.

The first event of the Triwizard Tournament, the competition time has finally been set!

"Dragon, Ike! You have a dragon to deal with!"

The day before the game, when Hermione and Harry told Ike the news, the little witch became angry when she saw Ike's indifferent expression.

"Did you hear me?"

"I heard it, dealing with a dragon, right? This is our first project." Ike nodded and looked at Hermione and Harry calmly, "So?"

"So? Do you have a way to deal with dragons?" Hermione asked anxiously.

"Of course." As he said that, Ike began to count on his fingers, "Conversion spells, coma spells, transformation spells, fire spells, many spells can cause harm to fire dragons."

"That's not realistic at all!" Hermione retorted directly, "Charlie and the others would need more than a dozen people to subdue a fire dragon. You can't expect Harry to use magic to kill a dragon!"

Ike shrugged and said nonchalantly: "But that's what I planned."

Hermione: "..."

Harry: "..."

Hermione had obviously forgotten that Ike had such a strong record.

To a certain extent, the ones he had dealt with were much scarier than dragons.

"To be honest, you seem to have entered into a misunderstanding." Ike said with a smile, "It is impossible to let an ungraduated student kill a fire dragon in the competition. Many adult wizards and even professors cannot do such a thing. .”

"So, in my opinion, there is a high possibility that we only need to make the fire dragon temporarily lose its aggressiveness, or dodge its attack."

Looking at Ike with his hands spread out, Hermione suddenly slapped her forehead.

"Really, I almost forgot!"

"Harry, we totally missed it!"

"I'm glad you can realize this." Ike said with a smile, "Don't forget that the Triwizard Tournament tests not only the magical ability of the warriors, but also their logical ability and adaptability in the face of danger."

"and……"

Pointing to Moody, who was walking from a distance on crutches, Ike said: "Someone will give you a solution, Harry."
