Looking at the malicious smiles of McMillan and others, Lucas frowned.
Before he could figure out their plans, Prefect Gemma Farley said: "Second Year Head Lucas Grindelwald, do you accept Eli McMillan's challenge to a duel?"
He did not expect that even the prefects were involved.
Lucas looked around the common room and all the Slytherin students were watching him now.
"Okay, I accept!"
Lucas drew his wand.
The two walked to the middle of the lounge and saluted each other as wizards.
As children of wizard families, almost all of them have learned dueling etiquette.
Waiting until the two were back to back and walking to the corresponding position according to the rules.
Prefect Gemma yelled, "Three, two, one, go!"
"Levicorpus!"
The sound of the beginning has just sounded.
Lucas waved the wand in his hand and Eli McMillan flew above into the transparent ceiling in the blink of an eye.
The magical creatures in the Black Lake were very curious about this human who suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Lucas Grindelwald wins!"
When Prefect Gemma announced the result, everyone found that Lucas had no intention of releasing the spell.
Instead, he looked at the other year chiefs.
"Since a duel was proposed, there will be a price to pay. It's better for Eli to stay there until everything ends."
"So who's next?"
The wand twirled rapidly in Lucas' hand.
His casual look managed to irritate several grade heads.
"Lucas, don't get complacent too early."
"Fourth grade chief, Marci Flint proposes a duel to you."
The Flint family is also a pure blood family with a long history and it is also one of the sacred twenty-eight.
Most of the Heads of Years in Slytherin House are members of the Sacred Twenty-Eight families.
This is also a matter of course.
The children of these pure-blood families normally start learning magic long before entering school.
Naturally, she is much stronger than her peers.
Like Draco Malfoy, although he is a little naive, but whether it is his magic repertoire or his power.
Among the second years, he was only worse than Lucas.
When the muggleborn or half-blood wizards are still fantasizing about using magic, children of pure-blood families may already be practicing the use of the Fire Making Charm.
After the complicated duel etiquette.
Marci Flint took the lead.
Having learnt from Eli's mistake, she wasn't going to give Lucas the first shot.
Marci merely waved her wand and a couple of strong ropes flew towards Lucas.
If that wasn't enough, another flash of white light erupted from the tip of her wand.
Judging from the wand movement, it should undoubtedly be the petrification spell.
"Exquisite silent spell."
Lucas first praised his opponent, then he easily deflected both spells.
Before Marci could react, Lucas' Stunning Charm + Levicorpus hit her.
Seeing that even the fourth year chief could not escape the fate of hanging upside down from the ceiling.
Then seeing the smiling Lucas, the little snakes suddenly shivered.
"Next, it's your turn, the fifth grade chief, Cecil Fawley."
Cecil walked to the middle of the field with a wry smile.
"Lucas, be merciful, can you not hang me up?"
Lucas raised his eyebrows and didn't agree with her.
The result is of course needless to say.
The fifth-year head has also become a decoration in the Slytherin common room and the sixth year head Carl O'Neill followed right after.
Soon, only the last Payne Travers remained as the head of the seventh year.
Professor Snape appeared on the sidelines at some point.
The Slytherin Head of House had never paid attention to the Chief Challenge.
Usually the prefect informed him of the results of the challenge the next day.
"Lucas, you are really excellent, and it is not in vain for us to make such a decision."
Payne looked at Lucas with relief in his eyes.
He will be graduating after this year.
If he could meet such an Excellent Slytherin like Lucas in his final year, he could leave with peace of mind.
He firmly believed that under the leadership of Lucas, Slytherin House would become more and more excellent.
Lucas probably guessed what these people were planning.
He asked Payne, who was standing in front of him, "who planned this, was it you or Draco?"
"Hehe!" Payne understood what Lucas was asking: "It was me and him, and Eli, Marci, Cecil, and Carl."
"It's a decision made by everyone, stop talking nonsense, I won't be defeated as easily as the previous challengers."
Payne turned his back on Lucas when he finished speaking.
Prefect Gemma came to the side and shouted: "Duel ready, start!"
"Afflicto!"
Payne's started directly with a bone breaker curse.
Lucas didn't hesitate, pointed his wand at the opponent and used the "Explosion Curse".
Two people fought back and forth, with every spell being deadly.
If there is a little carelessness, it is easy to be seriously injured by a curse.
The wonderful duel attracted everyone's attention, especially the freshmen who just entered school.
It turned out that what they thought was a wonderful duel before could only be regarded as a warm-up.
"Serpensortia!"
A black light flew from the tip of Payne Travers' wand and a big cobra several meters long appeared in the room.
The little firsties exclaimed in fright.
The cobra opened its mouth wide and lunged at Lucas.
Just when it was about to reach Lucas and everyone thought Payne's victory was decided.
They saw Lucas cast a transformation spell on a sofa next to him.
There was a loud chirp and everyone saw a huge red-tailed hawk soaring into the sky, carrying the snake in its talons.
Payne and Lucas weren't idle either.
Because he was worried about hurting Payne, Lucas hasn't been using much magic.
And he didn't use some powerful spells such as the Shattering Curse, Sectumsempra or his best fire shield.
Nonetheless, the duel is almost over now.
Lucas swung his wand at the opponent, and used the combined skill of petrification charm with cutting charm.
Payne, who dodged the petrification curse, was wounded in the arm by the cutting charm.
His skin split instantly, and blood sprayed down his fingers and dripped onto the ground.
"Expelliarmus!"
Payne, who now had an injured arm, had no power to fight back.
The wand was drawn by the spell and flew towards Lucas, who held it tightly in his hand.
"Senior Payne, I won!"
Lucas handed the opponent's wand back.
Payne lifted the blood-stained arm and took it with a trembling hand.
"Well, you won."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Professor Snape, and Prefect Gemma.
Snape drew his wand and pointed it at the ceiling.
"Liberacorpus!"
Several year chiefs were finally released and rubbed their heads that were drowsy due to blood congestion.
They walked towards Payne and stood next to him.
"Lucas Grindelwald, brilliant, shrewd, confident, powerful and ambitious."
"This is exactly what a Slytherin should have. We firmly believe that Slytherin House will become stronger under the leadership of Lucas Grindelwald."
"Today, Lucas Grindelwald conquered all the year chiefs with his excellent and powerful use of magic, and I believe his performance has also been recognized by all Slytherins."
"I declare that with immediate effect Lucas Grindelwald has been elected as the overall Chief Slytherin House."
Following the words of the prefect Gemma Farley, all the year chiefs immediately drew out their wands and placed them in front of their chests.
They bowed to Lucas with a sincere heart.
The other Slytherins only reacted at this moment.
They straightened up, straightened their clothes, and drew their wands, bowing to Lucas, the new Chief of the House.
Lucas looked around the common room.
Everyone bowed their heads to himself, which meant they recognized him as their leader.
And even Professor Snape, the Head of Slytherin, also nodded to him slightly.
This is the position of the Chief of Slytherin House.
At this moment Lucas became the most powerful person in Slytherin House besides Professor Snape and the Headmaster.
Even if it is the prefects elected by the school, even if it is the chief of each year.
As long as they were still in Slytherin House, they would obey his orders unconditionally.
"Thank you everyone, please rest assured, as the chief of the house, I will not let you down."
Everyone got up slowly and looked at Lucas with respect in their eyes.
[Congratulations to the host for completing a new achievement: the initial formation of forces; reward: 500 achievement points.]
Strictly speaking, the students of Slytherin were Lucas' first faction at this moment, since the Alliance can only be counted as his inheritance from Gellert Grindelwald.
Lucas turned and walked up to the steps.
The little snakes spontaneously gathered in front of him.
"Everyone, as the head of the house, on the first day of school, I will make three requests to you."
"First, this semester it's forbidden for all students of the house to go out for night tours. Chiefs of each year, please strictly supervise."
"Second, in this school year, in addition to your own homework, I require everyone to learn the Patronus Charm. If you don't know how to do it, please ask your year chief or come to me directly."
"Third, last year our Slytherin House won the House Cup for the seventh consecutive time. This is our glory, but I hope this glory will continue in the future."
"So, please continue to work hard this school year, and don't miss any chance to win house points."
"Yes, Chief!"
The answer echoed throughout the Slytherin common room in unison.
Lucas nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at Draco beside him.
"The second year chief vacancy is now held by Draco Malfoy."
Draco looked overjoyed, and nodded respectfully to Lucas in response: "Yes, chief, I will not let you down."
Pansy, Blaise and others surrounded Draco with smiles on their faces as they congratulated him.
When everything was over, Lucas finally returned to his own single dormitory.
Although it was very late, he still didn't feel sleepy.
Recalling the feeling from just now, Lucas remembered his father's previous teachings in his mind.
Power can indeed fascinate people easily, but one has to be careful not to get lost in the feeling this power brings.
Forcing himself to calm down.
To divert his attention, Lucas took out Riddle's diary.
"Tom, I'm already at school, can you help me with my homework now?"
He wrote in the diary with beautiful cursive characters.
Soon the ink stains disappeared.
After waiting for a while, a paragraph appeared in the diary.
