"Kyle, is this badge really given to us?"
"Of course." Kyle nodded, "We agreed on this before."
"This is ten Galleons..." the man sighed, "Next time if there is such a good thing, remember to call me. I can stand for a whole day."
"No problem." Kyle smiled.
At this time, cheers came from the stands again.
Slytherin scored the first goal, and some Slytherin students threw their umbrellas away excitedly.
Amid the cheers, Qiu and Mikel also squeezed through the crowd.
“Let’s not miss anything!”
"Just in time, Slytherin just scored the first goal." Kyle looked at them and said, "How are you guys?"
"Very good." Mikel grinned and said, "The sleeping beans are very effective, but I hit it too hard on the table, and my forehead hurts a little."
"I ate the other half of the swelling candy, too," Cho said. "Madam Pomfrey didn't notice anything wrong at all."
"That's good."
"This is all thanks to your lighting spell." Mikkel sat down and said half-jokingly, "To be honest, I always thought that only I could do it, but I didn't expect you could do it too, and you didn't faint."
"It's nothing, I just relied on the help of magic runes." Kyle waved his hand.
Several people were chatting while watching the game, or rather, they were chatting most of the time.
The heavy rain not only affected the players, but was also not very friendly to the spectators in the stands.
Through the rain, they could just barely see a few shadows moving back and forth, but it was hard to tell who those shadows were.
On the commentary stand, Lee Jordan did not make any jokes for the first time. He had to concentrate all his attention and guess who had the ball by looking at the vague body shape.
"Beautiful... Gryffindor has regained ten points... Well done, Angelina... Well, maybe Spinnet..."
The sky was getting darker and darker, and as the first flash of lightning passed, the conditions on the court became worse and worse.
Lee Jordan had never been so eager for a game to end quickly, but in this situation, it was too difficult to see the Golden Snitch clearly.
"This game won't last until the evening, right?" Mikel asked. "It's too cold today. I should have put on a thicker robe."
"If the Golden Snitch has not been caught... yes!" Cedric said, "Although the school competition is much simpler than the professional competition, the rules are still the same.
The longest Quidditch match I remember at Hogwarts was two days... and that produced the two worst Seekers the school has ever seen."
"Do not……"
Kyle suddenly said, "I don't think it will be until the evening."
He looked up at the gloomy sky.
Another flash of lightning flashed... briefly lighting up the sky, illuminating hundreds of hooded figures as well.
It was the Dementors, and there they stood, and a terrible chill began to spread through the stadium.
The cheers of the crowd suddenly disappeared and turned into screams of horror.
"Damn it! I was wondering why it suddenly became so cold!"
Mikkel jumped up from his seat. "Why are these monsters here?"
"Perhaps they are attracted by the cheerful atmosphere on the field," Kyle said. "Dementors live by absorbing people's happiness. The field right now is almost equivalent to a sumptuous banquet for them... Not many Dementors can resist such temptation."
"What should we do then..." Mikel asked shiveringly, and tightened his robe as if this would make him warmer.
"It's okay." Kyle looked at the Dementors getting closer and closer and comforted him, "Professor Dumbledore will definitely not let them come here."
"But Professor Dumbledore is not in the castle."
Mikel said in a panic, "This morning Professor McGonagall went to the school hospital to ask for some refreshing potions. I pretended to be asleep and heard her conversation with Madam Pomfrey... Professor Dumbledore had already gone to London at that time and would not be back until the evening."

Chapter 385 Kyle's Guardian
Professor Dumbledore isn't in the castle?
Kyle quickly stood up and stood on his seat to look at the classroom seats behind the commentary desk...
A flash of lightning flashed across the field, briefly illuminating the court.
Just as Mikel had said, Professor Dumbledore was not there.
And because of the rain, there were far fewer professors coming to watch the game than usual. There were only a few people, and they all looked as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Ah... Dementors... It's Dementors!"
There were more and more screams around, and it was obvious that everyone had noticed something strange above the stadium.
On the train, the two Dementors had already frightened all the students, and now there were at least a hundred of them!
"How is this possible? This is impossible..."
"Didn't the professor say they would only be at the school entrance?"
"Stop the game, Harry...Harry is in danger!" Hermione lay at the front of the stands and shouted loudly at the court.
But it was too noisy around, and her voice could hardly be heard far away... but there was no need for that.
A blurry shadow in the air was flying towards this side at a high speed.
Malfoy turned pale and gripped his broom tightly.
His potential seemed to be fully stimulated by the Dementors. Even when he caught the Golden Snitch before, his speed was not so fast.
"Help, help!" he cried in terror. "I can't stop!"
Kyle quickly pulled out his wand and turned the cloaks and umbrellas around him into large nets, blocking the broom that was about to hit the stands.
Malfoy, who had survived the disaster, breathed a sigh of relief. The first thing he did when he came down was to kick the unconscious Harry off the broom, while explaining loudly:
"It's none of my business. I didn't touch Potter at all. He was the one who fell on my broom after being frightened by the Dementors."
"He almost made me fall down with him!"
As he spoke, Malfoy became even angrier and wanted to kick again, but fortunately he was stopped by the people around him.
"What exactly happened?" someone asked.
"We encountered the Dementors while chasing the Snitch." Malfoy shuddered, "and then Potter fell... I was right underneath... The broom was falling uncontrollably... It took me a lot of effort... I could barely change its direction.
Oh, right... Dementors!"
He suddenly thought of something and looked up quickly.
The Dementors were close, and they seemed eager to have a feast.
Patches of dim silver light lit up the stands.
There were several Patronuses of senior students, but not many complete Patronuses.
Moreover, in the face of hundreds of Dementors, these Patronuses can only protect a small area around them. If they are larger, they will be useless.
At the same time, three brighter silver lights flew out from the direction of the teachers' seats.
A cat, a weasel, and a swift.
The patron saints of these professors flew into the air, and the brilliant silver light instantly covered most of the stadium, but there was still a small area that was empty.
"Severus!"
Professor McGonagall shouted anxiously, "What are you doing? Hurry up!"
Snape, who was sitting next to her, had a gloomy expression on his face, but as he looked at the Dementors getting closer and closer, he gritted his teeth and took out his wand.
But before he could chant the spell, a new patronus slowly floated out.
The umbrella-like body rippled in the air like water waves, casting a large area of silver light, and the last gap was filled in an instant.
The Dementors were blocked outside the court and couldn't move forward no matter what.
Professor McGonagall wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and angrily scolded Snape, "What were you doing just now? Don't tell me you can't even use the Patronus Charm."
Even when Snape had deducted all the points from Gryffindor students before, she had never lost her temper so much.
Snape knew he was in the wrong and did not make any excuses.
After she calmed down, Professor McGonagall noticed that she had no impression of the Patronus that suddenly appeared just now, and she couldn't help but look at it curiously.
The body is like an umbrella, and there are several long tentacles underneath...
"Jellyfish?" She looked at Professor Sprout next to her. "Do you know anyone whose patronus is a jellyfish?"
Professor Sprout shook his head.
"Is it possible that... Kyle."
Professor Flitwick thought for a moment. "I remember Remus once said that Kyle had also used the Patronus Charm on the train."
Professor McGonagall subconsciously looked towards the Hufflepuff's location, but the rain was too heavy and she couldn't see anything clearly.
……
"Kyle, is this your patronus?"
In the stands, Kanna looked up at the creature that was emitting silver light in the air and asked curiously.
Kyle nodded, "Yes."
"So beautiful..." Kanna said softly.
Qiu beside him nodded in agreement.
Although Kyle's Patronus is not as powerful as the professors', it is the most beautiful one.
The silver body floats gently, like a dancing elf, making people unable to take their eyes off it.
"Can our patron saint be like this?" Qiu asked longingly.
Kanna's eyes sparkled, "It may be even prettier than this."
"Not necessarily." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "Everyone's patronus is different, and no one knows what it looks like before it actually appears.
Maybe your patronus is a toad or a caterpillar or something...it's not impossible."
