Bab 262: Chapter 262: Shameless Karkaroff
When Cassandra returned, the judges also gathered to discuss how to rate everyone.
"Everyone, these Champions who didn't get the fire dragon eggs, I think they can give 20 points to each of them."
Ludo Bagman offered his opinion, and these Champions who did not get the golden egg were also in a very embarrassing position.
They can't participate in the next task if we don't give a point.
But if we give a high score, it's unfair to those Champions who worked so hard to get the dragon egg.
In desperation, Bagman can only propose a compromise.
"No! Fabien has already reached the last level and is close to getting the dragon egg. His score should be higher than the other two."
Karkaroff took the lead in raising objections, and he was the most disadvantaged.
Madame Maxime and Fontaine didn't speak. In fact, the two Champions were basically abandoned in their hearts, and it didn't matter how many points they had.
Seeing that no one objected to Karkaroff's proposal, Bagman settled down.
"Then Fabien has 25 points, and the other two Champions have 20 points."
The faces of the three Champions who had not cleared the stage were hideous. The girl from Beauxbatons even threw herself into her companion's arms and burst into tears.
But the audience applauded them because not all dare faces these trials.
They're already doing well. It's just that the other Champions are doing better.
Then came the highlight, all the referees were going to score the Champions who got the dragon egg, four Headmasters/Headmistress, Alvin, Crouch, and Bagman.
However, Crouch did not attend, and Percy replaced him.
Percy was very excited at this time. He didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to sit with so many big figures in the wizarding world.
Each person can give a maximum of 10 points, and the full score is 70 points.
"The first is Miss Fleur Delacour, a Champion from Beauxbatons. She used her charm and the help of the Unicorn to get the dragon egg successfully. It took 35 minutes and 25 seconds. Now we give fair marks."
After he finished speaking, he took the lead in giving his own evaluation, 7 points, which was fairly pertinent.
The next three Headmasters/Headmistress and Percy also gave 7 points.
Madame Maxime hesitated, and the wand launched a firework that formed the shape of a 9 in the sky.
And Alvin gave 9 points without hesitation, which attracted the eyes of all the little wizards at Hogwarts. Sure enough, Alvin still betrayed.
In the end, Fleur's total score was 53 points.
Then Bagman introduced Cedric's performance because Cedric successfully got the dragon egg by himself, and all the judges gave a much higher score.
Except for Karkaroff, he directly gave a 5, and he didn't even want his face.
In the end, Cedric scored 52 points, one less than Fleur.
Professor Sprout looked at Karkaroff badly, and Alvin guessed she might be thinking about putting some medicine in Durmstrang's dish.
"Next up is our youngest Champion, Harry Potter, whose Disarming Charm is still fresh in my memory, and my blood boils with the final flight."
Bagman was very excited, praised Harry to the sky, and finally gave Harry 10 points directly. This was the first time a full score appeared in this task.
The other judges were
impressed with Harry's performance, either an eight or a nine.
But Karkaroff acted shameless again, and he gave 4 points under the stunned eyes of everyone.
"Cheating! This is shady!"
"Shameless! This is blatant targeting!"
The little wizards at Hogwarts couldn't sit still any longer and scolded him one after another. Still, Karkaroff was a no-brainer, as if the people underneath were not scolding him.
"Karkaroff, can you donate your eyes to others if you don't need them?"
Alvin sneered at him.
His face was burning with pain, but Karkaroff insisted on this score.
In the end, Harry got 57 points. Ron sat next to Harry and shouted angrily. "Four points? This shameless, despicable Death Eater! How dare he give you such a low score?!"
But Harry didn't care. He smiled happily. Even if Karkaroff gave him zero points, he wouldn't care.
Ron makes up with him. No amount of points could be exchanged for it.
Your good friends... ugh! Good friends are much more important than these points.
When grading Krum, Alvin gave a 1 without hesitation as revenge for Karkaroff's shameless actions.
Seeing Alvin fire a big 1 with his wand, Karkaroff's gloomy face almost dripped with water.
"Gaunt, don't you think it's too much?"
"Too much?" Alvin said lazily, propping his chin with his right hand,
"I don't think deducting two points from each dragon's egg because of his mistakes is too much."
Dumbledore smiled and watched the confrontation between the two without speaking.
As the host, there are some things he can't say clearly, but Alvin has no such scruples.
Perhaps it was Alvin's words that played a role. Other referees did not give Krum a high score. Even if Karkaroff gave Krum a ten, he only scored 36 points.
The audience applauded, obviously, Karkaroff's shameless action also disgusted them, and Alvin's counterattack made them very relieved.
Krum, in the audience, showed a bitter face. He knew that he had been affected by Karkaroff, and his Headmaster was shameless, but he had to bear the consequences.
As for Cassandra's rating, there is no dispute. She can be said to be the Champion with the smoothest and the best performance.
Almost everyone gave full marks, and Cassandra finally got 68 points.
Alvin looked at Cassandra, who was still arrogant, and smiled.
Just then, Cassandra also turned her gaze to Alvin and saw the smile on his face. Her face flushed, and then she turned her head to avoid looking at Alvin.
After the Champions finished their evaluation points, Bagman solemnly announced the end of the first task. Then he began to introduce the content of the second task.
"The second task, I believe everyone will be interested in it."
"Wizarding Duel!"
Many people's eyes lit up. Is this going to make all the contestants fight?
Bagman continued. "The dueling level of the wizards can show their comprehensive strength to a large extent. The Champions who lost this round should not be discouraged because the second round will allow you to catch up."
"The rules are very simple. The eight Champions will play a single round-robin system. A victory will be awarded ten points, and a defeat will not be scored. This game has no draw, and the Champions will definitely decide a winner."
"The first round will be held on the first weekend of December, and everyone is not allowed to use magic items and potions."
After briefly talking about the rules of the second round, Bagman turned the topic to the dragon egg again.
