Meeting Gabrielle Again

Now that everyone had arrived, the Little Wizard no longer needed to stand outside freezing.

Following Durmstrang and the others, the Little Wizard returned to the Great Hall in an orderly fashion.

When Bell arrived at the Ravenclaw table, Bell found that his usual seat had already been taken.

You should know that it was a spot that Bell specifically chose, a good location with a clear view of the Slytherin table.

The Ravenclaw Little Eagle all know that Bell's favorite spot, so usually no one sits there.

It's just a meal, what difference does it make where we sit? We're all classmates, we see each other all the time, there's absolutely no need to cause a conflict over such a small thing, right?

But today, in addition to the Ravenclaw students, there are more than a dozen students from Beauxbatons Academy of Magic at the Ravenclaw table.

After glancing at the Little Wizard of Beauxbatons sitting around him, Bell thought for a moment but still said nothing.

After all, Shanna had already been at Hogwarts for over a year. She was quite familiar with the school and her classmates in Slytherin.

Even Bell is no longer so worried that his younger sister will encounter the infamous school bullying incident.

Therefore, he had long since stopped keeping a close eye on his younger sister's surroundings while eating.

The reason I continue to sit in that position is simply out of habit.

Besides, everyone kindly saved that seat for him, so he couldn't very well not take it.

Bell found the nearest empty seat and sat down without hesitation.

"... Is there anything I can help you with?"

Bell looked at the Little Wizard sitting around him with a puzzled expression.

For some reason, the moment he sat down, these Little Wizard stared at him with disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.

Bell touched his face in confusion. There was nothing on it. Why was everyone looking at him like that?

At this moment, the Little Wizard around them were devastated!

They stared in disbelief at Bell beside them.

"No way! Why aren't you sitting in your designated spot? What are you doing here?! We want to eat too, bro!"

You see, today is the first meal after Beauxbatons and Durmstrang's group arrived. Well-informed Little Wizard had already learned from the House-elf in the kitchen that the professors had specifically instructed that this dinner must be sumptuous, delicious, and show the splendor of Hogwarts!

Therefore, it can be said that many Little Wizard have been looking forward to this dinner for a long time.

Not to mention, they had just been outside freezing for half a day and were now even more eager to enjoy the delicious, warm food.

result...

"So you're not going to feed us?"

(╯#-伀)╯~~╧═╧

If they weren't truly outmatched, these Little Wizard would definitely be pinning Bell to the ground and beating him mercilessly. They would at least beat him until he couldn't get up until they finished eating.

However, no matter how beautiful their ideas were, they couldn't change the tragic reality. So, these Little Wizard could only cast their suspicious glances at the others nearby.

"Quickly, tell me, did you offend this guy? If so, admit it and leave! We'll bring you some food later, considering how much you sacrificed for everyone."

After a brief but intense exchange of glances, no Champion stepped forward to shoulder the burden with their frail shoulders.

Left with no other choice, the Little Wizard had to stand up and squeeze in with the others.

If I'm squeezed in with other people, at least I can eat a little. But if I sit with Bell, I might go hungry tonight.

The movement of these Little Wizard made the Ravenclaw dining table, which was already a bit crowded due to the addition of more than a dozen people, even more crowded.

The commotion around Bell quickly attracted the attention of the students from Beauxbatons, who were not far away.

Given the limited seating, the fact that the Little Wizard at Hogwarts preferred to eat huddled together rather than sit in the empty seats was bound to arouse curiosity among those unaware of the situation.

Several Beauxbatons students sitting on the edge immediately asked the Little Wizard Ravenclaw wizards next to them for the reason.

Meanwhile, Bell, who had become incredibly conspicuous due to the empty space around him, successfully attracted the attention of a little girl who had sneaked into the Great Hall to see what Hogwarts was like.

"Ah! It's my brother-in-law! Brother-in-law~! Do you remember me, brother-in-law~!"

Suddenly, a little girl with her face wrapped in a scarf darted out from behind Beauxbatons ' group, waving and calling out to Bell. Somehow, she weaved through the dense crowd and slipped to Bell's side.

This was an escape technique she had honed since childhood while hiding from men; it would be impossible to learn without a hundred or eighty times of practice.

Seeing her brother-in-law's surprised expression, Gabrielle proudly realized what he was thinking. She completely overlooked the fact that she had been mischievous since childhood, always sneaking out alone, which was why she had encountered so many dangers.

"Gabrielle!? What are you doing here! Didn't I tell you to wait in the carriage?"

Before Bell could speak, Little Witch with her face also wrapped in a scarf stood up and looked at Gabrielle in surprise.

At that moment, Phoebe felt immense regret. She should never have agreed to Gabrielle's request to accompany her!

... Well, actually, Phoebe had already anticipated that this would happen.

Phoebe believed she understood her younger sister's temperament very well. Gabrielle had done similar things countless times since they were little.

Even though she knew perfectly well what was going on, Phoebe still couldn't bring herself to refuse her sister's not-so-excessive requests whenever Gabrielle pleaded with her with teary eyes.

Just as Phoebe knew Gabrielle very well, Gabrielle also had her older sister completely under her thumb.

"Sister, you still have the nerve to talk! I'm not trying to be mean, but you've gone too far! How could you be so heartless as to abandon me alone in that carriage while you came to enjoy a feast?"

Faced with her sister's aggressive questioning, Gabrielle retorted with even fiercer force.

Even though she was in the wrong, she couldn't lose her momentum!

After saying that, Gabrielle ignored her sister. The little girl scrambled onto the chair next to Bell and deftly untied the silk scarf wrapped around her head.

"Brother-in-law, do you still remember me?"

Gabrielle asked Bell again.

"Of course I remember."

Seeing Gabrielle's quirky and adorable appearance, Bell couldn't help but reach out and pat the little one's head.
