Nope. Kurumi didn't have a clue about what they had that the media failed to report on - besides maybe their private lives or something. The dull aspects of their life that media would not be interested in hearing about. "Anything that would not make the tabloids and gossip columns?" Kurumi asked after raising her hand. "The aspects of their lives that make them seem...normal?"

Meh, it was a guess...and something that the media in the nonmagical world didn't really report on.

The media only seemed to care about the complete lives of a select few star Quidditch players in the league. "Or... the inner drive, stamina, strength, and true love of the game required to play at that kind of level? 'Cause it's not all as easy as it looks with, y'know, the fame and glamour and all that stuff..."

Max didn't really think it was that glamourous at all.
Vindictus thought about two of the answers and nodded. "Well, Max and Kurumi are on to something," he replied after a few minutes of awkward silence. "A couple of points to both of them."

He now stood up and leaned against the fireplace as he gazed at the class. "Charisma. Presence. Indomitability. Resourcefulness. I could go on and on," Vindictus said as he flashed his trademark smile and winked.

"However, I know that all of you have much to do but before I dismiss the class and post the homework, there is something that I need your opinion on."

He pulled out his wand and blue sparks appeared as he gave it a few flicks in the air. As the blue sparks faded, four distinct images appeared.

Photo 3
Photo 4

"Which of these images should I tell my publisher to use on the back cover of my upcoming autobiography?"

He was serious.
