Before the results were announced, Trelawney had already staggered off, thoroughly drunk.
McGonagall had wanted to steady her.
"I've received another call from fate. I must hurry back."
She swayed as she walked, yet somehow gave the impression of being exceptionally brisk.
"The winner is Wayne!"
McGonagall felt that she had sped up considerably, as though she were fleeing this terrifying place.
Dumbledore rose with a beaming smile. "Everyone, leave the remaining time to the children."
"Hmph!" Snape left with a cold face.
The result was no surprise, but he was far less gloomy than usual.
The Gryffindor students were all incredibly excited.
They descended from the stands and ran toward the arena.
Marcus had already left without a word.
Students from Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw also came over.
Such as Cedric and Rolf,
and Cho and Marietta.
Vincent had been quite pleased by the sight until he spotted Fred and George leading the way.
"Good brother! Come on, give us a hug~"
He turned and ran, stretching a hand toward the castle as he shouted, "Rascal Rabbit, come!"
With a small backpack strapped to it, it carried him high into the sky.
Dumbledore had been about to leave the stands, but without thinking, he waved the Elder Wand from afar.
This time, it was an advertisement.
An advertisement for the upcoming release of Gwent.
