Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 172 Don’t come back until you’re drunk
Like the giants above the stadium, Mike and others on the throne had different expressions.

Mike and Cedric looked relaxed, especially Mike, who looked nonchalant. But Willy from Slytherin looked a little nervous, and it was obvious that fighting against Mike, the legendary genius, put a lot of pressure on him.

Although he was nervous, Willy, who had received elite education since childhood, was still very polite. Seeing Mike looking at him, he nodded and smiled back at Mike.

It's just that this smile is a little stiff.

It was understandable, after all, Mike was only in the second grade, and Willy was already in the seventh grade. If he won against Mike, it was natural, but if he lost, someone would definitely say that he couldn't even beat a second grader, which would be embarrassing.

The most exaggerated among the four was Bruno from Gryffindor. When he knew that his next opponent was Cedric, he became completely unwell. He sat on the throne without moving, and did not even hear the staff telling him that he could stand. He looked distraught.

Mike and the others ignored him, said hello to each other and returned to their respective colleges.

Although he was mentally prepared, Mike was still caught off guard by the enthusiasm of his Ravenclaw classmates.

The excited Ravenclaws had been waiting on the road that Mike had to pass through, and they surrounded him as soon as they saw him appear. Listening to everyone congratulating him, Mike felt that his expression must be very awkward.

Just when Mike was at a loss, a group of Quidditch players led by Roger pushed through the crowd and lifted Mike up with one hand and one foot, and used the same trick to carry Mike back to Ravenclaw.

"Everyone! Stop standing there like an idiot. Go back to the common room. We have prepared the banquet!" Roger turned around and yelled at the Ravenclaws, "Professor Flitwick is not here tonight. We won't leave until we are drunk!"

The four words "Don't go home until you are drunk" completely stimulated many underage wizards. These wizards usually don't drink alcohol due to the ban on minors drinking. Now they have a chance to try something new like alcohol, and they immediately cheered and ran to the Ravenclaw common room.

A group of people returned to the Ravenclaw common room in a mighty procession. As soon as Mike was put down, he complained to Roger: "Shit, can't you try another way? I won't run away this time, why do you have to carry me back again!"

In response to Mike's complaints, Roger scratched his head and smiled without saying anything, then directly stuffed a glass of butterbeer into Mike's arms.

Mike was not at all nervous and drank it all in one gulp. His momentum of finishing the glass immediately caused a round of cheers.

Mike smacked his lips and shook his head helplessly at the excited crowd.

Just kidding, Mike had already drunk Butterbeer when he first started the Dolphin Magic Drink business with the Weasley brothers in the first year. You know, the Weasley brothers are the biggest "beat-up merchants" in Hogwarts, specializing in bringing in some alcohol and other contraband from outside the school. The Butterbeer that Roger and the others prepared today was probably imported from the Weasleys.

Butterbeer doesn't taste like alcohol, but a strange mixture of sweet and salty. It's not bad, but it's definitely not delicious. Although it's called beer, it's actually an alcoholic beverage. It's even hard to say whether it contains alcohol.

Turning my gaze elsewhere, I saw that the Ravenclaw common room had changed drastically.

The originally neatly arranged desks have been put together to form several long tables, and the tables are filled with various delicacies and fine wines. Needless to say, the delicacies must have been made by Roger at the request of the house-elves, as these little wizards are not capable of making such exquisite food.

Roger also prepared a lot of wine this time, most of which were alcoholic drinks such as butterbeer. What surprised Mike the most was that there was also strong liquor such as fire whiskey. I don't know where Roger got these strong liquors from. You know, the Weasley brothers dare not bring strong liquor in. If you are caught bringing in something like butterbeer, at most you will be detained and deducted points, but if you bring in strong liquor such as fire whiskey, you will be punished severely.

"Roger, where did you get these things?" Mike pouted in the direction of Firewhiskey and said, "How dare you put them out there? Aren't you afraid of being fired?"

"Hehe, the source is a secret." Roger said nonchalantly, "As for the expulsion you mentioned, don't joke about it. Professor Flitwick is not in school, so what are you afraid of?"

Mike shook his head helplessly, leaving Roger who was a little too proud of himself, and looked for Penelope in the crowd.

At this moment, the long table was full of people. Mike's strong performance in the arena just now had obviously won honor for Ravenclaw, so everyone present had a bright smile on their face and was extremely excited.

Mike was amazed when he saw a young wizard, who was probably only in the third grade, gulp down a large glass of flaming fire whiskey in one breath.

The alcohol content of whiskey is generally around 43%; Fire Whiskey not only has a higher alcohol content but also gives you a stimulating feeling as if your internal organs are on fire. Even Mike, who had a battle-hardened body in his previous life, would not dare to finish such a large glass of Fire Whiskey in one breath. That third-grade wizard is truly a warrior.

But the third-grade little wizard was a warrior for only three seconds, because after three seconds he staggered and fell on the long table and fell into a deep sleep.

Mike's journey to find someone was not smooth. Along the way, people always came to toast him. Faced with these enthusiastic classmates, Mike couldn't refuse, and basically drank all the drinks.

However, this only applies to butterbeer. Mike refused those guys who offered to toast him with two glasses of fire whiskey, saying that he was still young and could not drink such strong liquor.

He doesn't want to be like the warrior just now.

After searching the crowd for a long time, Mike finally found Penelope in a corner. She was chatting with some of her girlfriends, and there were several glasses of fire whiskey on the table.

"Beautiful ladies, I wonder if I have the honor to have a drink with you?" Mike came forward and invited with a smile.

Maybe they were talking about some private topic about boys, for as soon as Mike came, the other girls blushed and ran away, leaving only Penelope still sitting in her seat.

This was exactly what Mike wanted. Seeing that Penelope ignored him, Mike was not angry. He sat down next to Penelope and poured himself a small glass of fire whiskey.

"Why did you come to me now?"

Penelope said drunkenly.
