Chapter 146 Invitation from the national team!

"This is Mr. Jerry Carmen. I just watched your game. It was really exciting. I am Miles Booth, the coach of the England Quidditch team!"

As soon as Jerry entered the office, the tall, middle-aged wizard immediately stood up and took the initiative to hold Jerry's hand.

When the short, fat, middle-aged wizard saw this, he twitched his lips first, sighing secretly that the local coach of the national team was so unreserved, but he did not dare to neglect, and quickly stood up and came to Jerry's side:

"Hello, Mr. Carmen, I am Hunter Ramson, coach of the Scottish Quidditch team!"

"Um...hello!"

After hearing the self-introductions of the two people, Jerry vaguely understood something in his heart and smiled and shook hands with the two of them.

It turns out that last semester when the Slytherin team played against the Gryffindor team, Jerry's legendary story of catching the Golden Snitch in less than a minute spread not only throughout Hogwarts.

It also reached the ears of the coaches of the two British national Quidditch teams through those wizards who came to watch Hogsmeade and the young wizards who returned home during the Christmas holidays.

That's how today's meeting came about.

"I think everyone can sit down first, drink a glass of honey lemon juice and talk slowly. Mr. Carmen also needs to know what is going on before he can make a decision!"

Dumbledore, who was sitting there, smiled and waved to everyone, and six glasses of honey lemonade immediately appeared on the table.

"We are a little excited!"

The coaches of the two teams nodded quickly.

The Scottish Quidditch team and the English Quidditch team both belong to the British Quidditch team, but this does not mean that the two teams do not have a competitive relationship.

This time the two of them came over, firstly to confirm whether Jerry was as powerful as the rumors said, and secondly to make an exception and recruit Jerry into their team as a seeker.

Of course, whether to join the Scottish Quidditch team or the English Quidditch team depends on the abilities of the two coaches and Jerry's choice.

In fact, according to regulations, it was impossible for Jerry to join the national Quidditch team at his age, but in the past few years, neither the Scottish nor English teams had won the championship in the World Quidditch Tournament.

The best result was the year before last, when the Scottish team missed the championship, finishing second, and finally lost to the Canadian team. Let’s not mention the English team!

Also, Jerry's performance talent is amazing. Although in terms of speed, the Golden Snitch used in the campus competition is not as fast as the Golden Snitch used in the world competition.

But Jerry was able to catch the Golden Snitch within one minute, which really shocked the two coaches. At least no seeker from the national team has been able to do this in the past.

So after applying, the two of them made an exception and came to Hogwarts to recruit Jerry into the team.

Rules are formulated for ordinary people. For true geniuses, there are naturally people who are willing to break the rules for them.

After taking a few sips of lemon juice, Jerry listened to Dumbledore briefly explain to him the reasons why the two coaches came to Hogwarts, and then looked at the two expectant coaches and replied decisively:

"I'm sorry, gentlemen, I don't plan to join the national Quidditch team yet. After all, I'm only a first-year student. I need to learn magic in school instead of going to Quidditch every day after leaving school.

Diqi training and competition!”

Now his time to study magic is very tight. He has no time to go to the national Quidditch team. Isn't it a waste of time?

No matter how powerful or legendary the Seeker is, if he encounters Voldemort, he will still be killed by a death curse.

Although becoming the seeker of the national Quidditch team will definitely make him famous, which will be beneficial to his future plans, reputation is only a supplement. What is more important is strength, and he can still distinguish between priorities.

"You don't need to worry about time. We have negotiated with Principal Dumbledore and will open a dedicated space at Hogwarts.

,

A fireplace, you can reach our team directly through Floo!"

The tall coach quickly explained.

The short coach also said:

"Mr. Carmen, we will never delay your study time. Our training time will be chosen when you have no classes on weekends or during long holidays.

And apart from the Quidditch World Cup, we don’t have many Quidditch matches with other countries every year!”

"Sorry, I need to read books and learn magic on weekends and holidays. My dream is to be a righteous Auror. Quidditch is just my hobby. I don't plan to become a professional Quidditch player in the future!

"

Jerry refused again verbally.

I go to your place for training on weekends and holidays. Are you kidding me?

The two coaches suddenly became anxious. Originally, they came here this time just because they were worried that Jerry might not be as good as the rumors, but they never thought that Jerry would refuse to join the national team.

Who of the young wizards at this age can resist the temptation to participate in the World Quidditch Cup and become a world-famous Quidditch player?

"If you think training is taking up time, I don't require you to come to training on weekends. You just need to take a long vacation, such as during summer vacation!"

Scotland coach Hunter Lamson thought for a moment and relaxed the conditions.

Running back and forth on weekends may indeed delay your studies, but after more than two months of vacation, you won't delay your studies.

England coach Meyer, Booth looked at Meyer in surprise, hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and made more relaxed conditions.

"You don't have to come over for training on weekends and summer vacations, just like you do now. When waiting for the competition, I will specially come to pick you up to participate in the competition, and the time of each competition will be during your vacation, so it will not delay your study.

!'

In the last World Quidditch Cup, the Scottish Quidditch team finally finished second, but their English team didn't even make it into the top five.

So for Jerry, a talented seeker, this time it was Meyer, and Booth was determined to win.

However, Jerry still refused to answer.

Because he feels that the national team basically has to go abroad a lot of time for competitions, and the competition is not as simple as Hogwarts. Going to other countries to participate in competitions several times a year is a waste of time. A bigger competition.

, it will take four or five days to go back and forth.

At this time, the two coaches were dumbfounded. If Jerry really didn't want to join the national team, there was nothing they could do.

"Jerry, the Quidditch players of the national team are different from the Quidditch players of the school. They are paid, with a minimum salary of 300 gold galleons a month, and extra bonuses for winning the game!"

At this moment, Snape's low and emotionless voice suddenly came to Jerry's ears.

"Ahem, actually, I think I can think about it again!'
