The dragon ashes had barely settled when Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, Durmstrang, and the entire British wizarding world erupted in madness.
Roy Valvas hadn't just saved Fleur.
He had accidentally started an international phenomenon.
1. Beauxbatons Girls Form a Fanclub — "Le Cercle du Prince Yaksha"
Fleur was already the school idol.
But now?
Roy was the Beauxbatons hero who:
saved their top student
defeated two dragons in one move
did it while looking like a descending celestial prince
Within hours, Beauxbatons girls put up a sign on their carriage:
"Fanclub Valvas — Première Réunion Aujourd'hui!"
(Valvas Fanclub — First Meeting Today!)
The turnout was insane.
Over 60 girls squeezed into the Beauxbatons lounge, squealing:
"Did you see how he held Fleur?""He destroyed TWO dragons! TWO!""His sword was so cool—like fire and sunlight—ahhhh!!"
One girl dramatically fell onto a couch.
"I swear… I fainted when he patted Fleur's head."
Fleur walked in, confused, and the room exploded:
"MADAME PRINCESSE!"
She froze.
Gabrielle:"Big sister, they think you will marry Roy."
Fleur:"…I-I am not saying no."
Shrieks.
Absolute shrieks.
2. Durmstrang Students: Absolute Fear
Durmstrang's reaction was the opposite.
They did not create a fanclub.
They created trauma.
Especially after Roy burned two dragons into ash without a spell incantation.
Durmstrang common room, midnight
A student whispered:
"Do NOT anger Roy Valvas… he uses a sword made of hellfire."
Another:"He can fly. I swear. I saw it."
A third, trembling:"Is he even human?"
Even Viktor Krum was sweating.
Viktor:"I vill not fight him… even in chess."
3. Sirius Black Hears About The Incident
At Grimmauld Place, Sirius was sipping tea when Harry's owl dropped a stack of letters from various students, all containing one theme:
"ROY VALVAS KILLED DRAGONS!"
Sirius blinked.
"Harry's friend did what?"
Then the Prophet headline fell out:
"YAKSHA PRINCE SAVES FLEUR DELACOUR—DRAGONS OBLITERATED."
Sirius choked on air.
"James… Lily… you should see this boy. Your son's year-mate is casually slaying dragons like flies."
He grabbed the letter Harry wrote:
"Sirius, it was crazy! Roy flew down like a hero and saved Fleur. I've never seen magic like that."
Sirius leaned back, whistling.
"Well… good.If he's on Harry's side… Voldemort should start panicking now."
4. Rita Skeeter's New Article — "THE PRINCE OF FIRE"
Rita had written many exaggerated stories in her life.
None required exaggeration as little as this one.
Her Quick-Quotes Quill scratched across the page as she whispered with glee:
"Prince Roy — The Flame God of Hogwarts!"
Her article included:
Dramatic drawings of Roy flying with fire wings
A scandalous suggestion Fleur is "the chosen princess"
A rumor Roy can "command magical creatures with a single stare"
A line comparing Roy to a "mythical Yaksha lord"
A highlight:"Ron Weasley nearly got Fleur killed; Roy Valvas saved her like a royal guardian."
The public reaction?
Pandemonium.
5. Hogwarts Reacts
The second years made banners.
The first years made songs.
The fifth years acted like they personally witnessed a prophecy.
Even the teachers reacted differently:
McGonagall
"Impressive… terrifying… but impressive."
Snape
"…Show-off."
(Secretly impressed, but would never admit it.)
Hagrid
"Tha' boy's got the heart of a hero! And a sword tha' scares even dragons!"
6. Roy's Life Becomes a Mess
Everywhere Roy walked:
girls stared
boys stepped aside
fangirls squealed
Durmstrang students bowed
Rita's article floated magically through halls
Even the paintings flirted with him.
Painting of a Lady:"Oh Prince Yaksha~ come visit my frame sometime~"
Roy:"I'm burning this castle."
7. Fleur's Reaction: Quiet, Deep, Dangerous
Fleur held Roy's hand for the rest of the day.
Not in fear.
In certainty.
"Roy… merci… for saving my life.I owe you everything."
She pressed her forehead to his.
And every nearby girl made a jealous choking sound.
And thus began the era known in Hogwarts history as:
THE VALVAS CRAZE
where a single dragon-slayer prince changed everything.
