Capítulo 581: Chapter 581 "The Most Dangerous Fire Dragon"
"You mentioned earlier that Charlie's current assignment involves studying dragons in Romania. This time, he's at Hogwarts overseeing the first project, and this particular challenge is a test of courage," Hermione explained, her frustration evident. She couldn't fathom the audacity of assigning Jerry to confront a fire dragon.
As Hermione vented her displeasure, Harry and Ron exchanged knowing glances, silently acknowledging the unique dynamics between her and Jerry. Ron, ever the blunt commentator, couldn't resist a teasing comment. "These two are quite a pair. If you two ever have a child, it'll undoubtedly be the smartest in the world!"
Harry and Ron exchanged glances, sighing in unison as they observed the interaction between Jerry and Hermione.
Ron couldn't resist expressing his thoughts, adding a touch of complaint to his commentary. Already preoccupied with concern for Jerry, Hermione blushed at Ron's unexpected mention of future family plans.
The sudden topic of having a child caught her off guard, and she found herself momentarily flustered.
"Cough, since Charlie is overseeing the challenge, he must be privy to the details of the game, right?" Jerry interjected, tactfully changing the subject.
Ron affirmed Jerry's observation, saying, "Yes, Charlie mentioned that, although officially they can't disclose the content of the first task, obtaining information has been a tradition in the Triwizard Tournament. Yesterday, Karkaroff and Maxime sought details from his colleague, so he asked me to share the information with you."
Ron went on to elucidate the specifics of the inaugural challenge. "The task was straightforward – steal the dragon egg from under the belly of an adult fire dragon. The time taken, the magical strategies employed, and the condition of the dragon eggs would factor into the evaluation. Success would be determined by the five judges, with their scores collectively contributing to the participants' total score."
In the event of a failed attempt, where the warrior succumbed to the fire dragon, no assistance would be rendered.
As Ron unveiled the task's perilous nature, the challenge's gravity became apparent. The trio of friends, already concerned about Jerry's safety, listened intently to the rules and criteria shaping the first competition.
"Cough, since Charlie is in charge, he must inform you of the task details, right?" Jerry interjected, steering the conversation away from potential family planning.
Ron confirmed, "Yes, Charlie mentioned that, although they aren't allowed to disclose the first task's details officially, getting information on it has been a tradition. Karkaroff and Maxime even asked someone to extract specifics from him. He asked me to share the details with you."
Ron proceeded to unravel the mystery of the first challenge – stealing a dragon egg from beneath an adult fire dragon.
The complexity of the task lay in the time taken, the magical tactics used, and the condition of the pilfered dragon egg.
Success hinged on these factors, and the five judges would collectively score the participants.
Hermione, Harry, and Ron wore concerned expressions as Ron outlined the perilous nature of the task.
Facing adult fire dragons, immune to most magic, was daunting. The trio couldn't help but worry about Jerry's safety.
However, Jerry reassured them confidently. With his strength, he claimed dealing with a fire dragon wasn't a challenge.
His nonchalant demeanor eased their concerns, and he explained that his extensive experience, coupled with his ring world's unique qualities, made him well-prepared for such magical creatures.
Days passed, and anticipation peaked as the school awaited the Triwizard Tournament's first challenge.
The library transformed into a hive of activity, with students collaborating to gather insights into dragons and strategize for the impending task.
On the eve of the challenge, the library stood as a testament to shared determination.
Armed with newfound knowledge, Jerry, Hermione, Ron, and Harry prepared to face the trial.
The collective effort and camaraderie among students highlighted the unity forged by the upcoming challenge.
When the day arrived, the Hogwarts castle seemed to hold its breath in anticipation.
Aware of Jerry's capabilities, Headmaster Snape escorted him to the tent prepared for the Champions, confident in Jerry's ability to face the fire dragon unscathed.
Inside the tent, Jerry, Fleur, and Krum awaited their fate.
While Fleur and Krum appeared tense and pale, Jerry maintained a calm demeanor, even enjoying a cup of tea. His composed attitude impressed his fellow participants.
As Ludo Bagman, the tournament organizer, entered with a silk bag, he informed the warriors about the dragon species they would face.
Fleur drew a Welsh Green Dragon, deemed the safest among fire dragons, while Krum's luck had him facing the Chinese Fireball Dragon.
Before Jerry could draw, Ludo, with a touch of sympathy, hinted at the dragon awaiting him – the Hungarian Horntail, renowned as the most dangerous fire dragon.
The tension in the tent heightened as the realization of the imminent challenge sank in.
The air grew tense as Ron continued outlining the first competition's intricacies.
The prospect of stealing a dragon egg from under the belly of an adult fire dragon sounded increasingly perilous, heightening the anxiety that hung in the room.
The criteria for success, involving time, magic, and the condition of the dragon eggs, painted a challenging picture.
Five judges would evaluate the students, and the cumulative scores would determine the outcome.
The gravity of the situation deepened as Ron emphasized the lack of assistance for those unfortunate enough to face the lethal consequences of a failed attempt.
The reality of the Triwizard Tournament, with its life-threatening challenges.
Despite Jerry's reassurances about his experience in dealing with fire dragons, the friends couldn't shake the unease that accompanied the knowledge of the impending danger.
Hermione's worry for Jerry intensified, and the library, once a refuge for studying, now echoed with the weight of the imminent trial.
As the group processed the information, their thoughts turned to the upcoming spectacle. The entire school awaited the unfolding drama, gathering at the transformed Quidditch pitch, now the fire dragon paddock. The anticipation was palpable, and with each passing moment, the realization that their friend would soon face this formidable challenge sank in.
