NOVEL NEXT Chapter 29 Tacit Understanding On The Court
When Levin arrived on the field, it was not Roger Davis, captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, waiting for him, but his recommender:
Cirilla Leanne.
This gray-haired girl is tall, with soft and tight lines.
Levin had to admit that even in the flower-like Ravenclaw, she was still a rare and beautiful girl.
But in terms of temperament, she is different from most Ravenclaw girls Levin has met.
Her shawl gray hair was pulled back casually, and the tight-fitting clothes she wore for exercise made her even more heroic.
She was holding a broomstick and stepping on a big box, like a graceful and vigorous cheetah, ready to go.
She is indeed Geralt’s adopted daughter, the female witcher in the original novel.
Even though he is now a wizard, he can still see a trace of his former demon hunter style.
"Hey, Professor Flitwick, Mr. Levin Green, here!"
Almost at the same time, Ciri also spotted them and waved to them in the sunshine.
"The rest is up to you, Mr. Green, behave well." Professor Flitwick patted Levin's shoulder encouragingly and walked toward the castle.
Levin took three steps at a time and came to Cirella's side.
The girl patted her shoulder enthusiastically: "Hi, Mr. Green, this isn't the first time we've met, huh?"
Levin understood that she was referring to the first day of school,
At that time, I accidentally called her name out of shock.
But Levin was not embarrassed at all, and said openly: "You are right, Senior Sister Lei Anlun. It is also the first time for me to see a senior sister with gray hair and such a beautiful girl. I was a little surprised for a moment."
"Call me Cirila, or Ciri, Mr. Green, so I can call you Levin." Ciri covered her mouth happily after being praised by the handsome boy. "By the way, I thought You’ll be stronger.”
That's because I didn't have time to cast the attribute enhancement spell.
Levin pouted:
"Of course, Ciri, nice to meet you."
Just a simple greeting made the distance between the two of them much closer.
Then, Xili kicked the edge of the wooden box with a cool kick.
The lid of the box popped open, revealing the Quidditch props inside.
"Mr. Green, do you know about Quidditch?" Ciri asked. "It's not the level of understanding that fans have."
"I'm a Muggle, Shirley. I only got rid of the magic this summer." Levin replied with a wry smile: "I only know that the red ball is the Quaffle. The chasers pass the Quaffle around and try to thread it through." Each time you pass the opponent's ring, you will get 10 points, and the goalkeeper is responsible for guarding your team's ring..."
Shiri soon discovered that the boy in front of her was not simple.
Although he claims to have never touched Quidditch, he knows the rules of Quidditch very well:
He described the basic rules, the purpose of each golf equipment, the responsibilities of each position, the specifications of the golf course, and even some basic tactics.
Although his understanding of them still remains in words.
"...These are all things I learned from books." Finally, Levin added.
The books Levin stored in the database happened to contain Quidditch-related knowledge.
"I've always heard that Ravenclaw has a genius this year, but it's only after I experienced it myself that I realized that you really deserve it." Xili sighed, "It seems that you don't need to make up for the theoretical lessons. To be honest, we Most players at Ravenclaw may not know more about Quidditch than you do."
"Then, let's start the practical test directly. Professor Flitwick said that he will buy you a new broom personally. Before that, you can use mine first."
With that said, she handed the broom in her hand to Levin and winked at him:
"Sweeping Seven Stars, Professor Flitwick gave it to me when I joined the team. You must treat it well."
After hearing this, Levin immediately grasped the message contained in it.
Professor Flitwick will give himself a broomstick, but this is by no means the norm.
Most of the people on the team bought their own brooms.
Mostly because he was born in a Muggle orphanage and there was no wizarding family behind him to provide the funds to buy a broom.
Plus, he does have Quidditch talent, so it's worth spending some money on it.
Harry probably had the same reason.
The fact that Ciri received this gift in the first place probably means that she was in a similar situation to him when she came to Hogwarts.
This further illustrates that Ciri, like him, is an outsider to the world of Harry Potter.
Levin nodded, turned around, waved his wand to himself under Ciri's curious gaze, and then got on the broom.
A set of three consecutive sets of [Bear's Tenacity], [Ox's Power], and [Cat's Elegance] have been cast.
Immediately afterwards, Ciri released a shiny black Bludger,
It had been struggling in the box before.
As soon as the Bludger was free, it quickly hit Levin in the face.
Levin picked up a bat from the box and swung it hard.
With the blessing of [Bull Power], Levin's 7 points of strength were increased to 12 points, completely surpassing that of an adult.
The Bludger was instantly knocked away, whizzing towards the goal post, and then accurately passed through the hoop - as if it was not a heavy Bludger, but a deft Quaffle.
"Well done, Levin, you are stronger than I thought. I was wrong before..."
Before Ciri could finish speaking, the unwilling Bludger hit her from the sky again, but this time it was aimed at her head.
Naturally, Ciri didn't show any fear. She rushed over, grabbed the Bludger, and forced it into the box regardless of its struggle.
This skill is almost comparable to that of myself with buffs.
No wonder she became a witcher.
"You have the potential to be a hitter," Sheary said, "but let's see what you have at other positions."
So next, Shiri asked Levin to fly around the court twice and try some difficult flying moves, and Levin completed them perfectly.
Then comes the Chaser test,
Shiry asked Levin to cooperate with him in a series of complex passes and tactical moves.
For example, reverse pass, Pokov's baiting technique, etc.
This kind of technique that requires the cooperation of companions cannot be accomplished by physical fitness alone.
This is where Levin's psion abilities come into play.
Although he has not yet mastered the ability to [detect thoughts], he can already read some simple emotions.
Levin knows exactly when Shiry is ready to pass the ball and when it is inconvenient to catch the ball.
This directly makes the two people cooperate with each other in a tacit understanding.
On the Quidditch pitch,
When Shirley saw this boy catch his legend again without looking back,
A subtle feeling arose inside her:
This boy not only has excellent reflexes, keen observation, and agility, but he can also connect with her for the first time.
Maybe he is the teammate God gave him.
They were born to play Quidditch together.
When the two finished the test, Shirley could no longer hold back her excitement and held Levin's hand: "Come on, Levin, how about becoming a chaser with me?"
"Although with your talent, you are good at any position, but I think you are most suitable as a chaser. If you were here, this year's Quidditch Cup would be Ravenclaw!"
As if she was afraid of something unexpected, she added: "In addition to you, we also recruited a very talented player this year. Roger wants her to be a seeker because she is uh - very - cute?"
In order to be his teammate, Ciri directly gave away the most attractive Seeker position, and also brought Roger in as an excuse.
But Levin believes that if Shirley really wants to decide something, even captain Roger Davis has to listen - after all, it is the "Cintra Young Lions".
Levin was not surprised by Ciri's reaction.
In other words, this is what he did intentionally.
With his psychic abilities, he can still have a tacit understanding even if he has an idiot as his teammate.
However, this tacit understanding will only be given to Shiri by Levin.
His calculation is very clear,
One of the four pillars of life is "carrying the gun together."
The strongest friendship is when we fight side by side.
Playing side by side on the court has a similar effect.
And if there is still a tacit understanding between comrades-in-arms,
Then the friendship will be twice as strong.
And when his relationship with Shirley is close enough, some secrets involving his life and origin can be asked.
Not to mention, Xili's appearance potential alone is indeed worthy of Levin's friendship.
Therefore, Levin readily agreed to Ciri and officially became the chaser of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
In the next period of time, Levin also became busy,
As the course progresses, normal schoolwork naturally becomes more and more arduous.
He still spends most of his spare time in the library,
But in addition, Levin also has to participate in Quidditch training three times a week, as well as one-on-one tutoring sessions with Hermione on the weekends.
Except for finding no chance to enter the forbidden book area, my life was very fulfilling.
