The older man looked surprised at the answer for a mont before accepting it easily as it not only explained what was happening but was entirely possible with the vast potential of magic. "I do apologize for his rude manner of speaking Mr. Delacour , you simply caught him while he was scoping out his competition." Dumbledore said with a chuckle. "Is he competing in the pageant?" the older man asked surprised since he had assud it was Dumbledore that was participating. "Indeed he is. I dare say he has a strong chance of winning as well." the old goat said in a friendly manner.-
"As much as I would love to chat about this I should probably go and calm down my family before they do sothing drastic." the older Delacour man said before walking back to his family and explaining the situation. The Delacour family was a small but influential family that had their hands in quite a few French pies as one of the oldest pureblood families in France. At the mont it consisted of the grandparents with the grandmother being considered half veela by the wider world. The parents under that consisted of a single daughter and the son in law that were around the Weasley parents age.-
And finally under that was the two daughters with one being fifteen and the other being ten. The eldest daughter was currently missing from the family here since she was a student at Beauxbatons and the schools holiday break was the sa as Hogwarts and thus hadn't started yet. Only the family mbers themselves as well as those familiar with veelas knew that the won of the family weren't in fact human at all but true veela hiding behind the lie to retain the privilege's of wizards in the form of magical education and wand use.-
It was an international law that no magical race was permitted to own a wand under any circumstance and so this lie was fiercely defended by the family. This made Nick's presence troubling to them to say the least as the won wanted nothing more than to kneel in front of him instinctually. They resisted the urge of course but it didn't make the situation any better for them at all. Sadly they couldn't exactly chase him off without proper reason as he was not doing anything wrong at all.-
The only thod left to them was the most irritating one , grin and bare with it. The little girl of the family was the most uncomfortable as she was having the hardest ti out of them all controlling her impulses. Nick anwhile was growing more and more irritated as ti passed while they waited in line as the magic of the veelas was going out of control and constantly trying the effect his mind to pay attention to them. A veelas allure was a sort of compulsion magic that drew male attention to it's owner and despite being the magical equivalent of a king to avian creatures Nick was still very much male.-
This ant the allure was battering against Sanar and his occluncy shields constantly like an alarm clock going off no matter how many tis he hits off. As a result he was starting to lose his patience which Dumbledore was the first to notice from the barely contained magical energy he sensed. Realizing that Nick was getting close to exploding in anger Dumbledore quickly cast an isolation spell on him that cut off the allure affecting him. While this also cut Nick off from copying the magical effects of the wizard and witches magical items it still let him calm down.-
Having the allure cut off however made the Delacour won flinch slightly as the magic was intrinsically part of themselves and thus it stung to get it cut like that. The family didn't say anything however as it was fairly clear from the expression on Nick's face that they were irritating him with it. Thankfully Dumbledore didn't need to maintain the isolation charm for much longer as it was finally their turn to use the floo. Nick got hit with the allure for a brief mont again before they vanished from the ministry but he ignored it.-
'I'll need to create sothing to keep that magic away from if I want to get through the next three days without incident.' Nick thought seriously as they finally stepped out of the fireplace and into Beauxbatons proper. He knew that the school was very big on style and beauty but what he was t with was frankly speaking insane. The whole room they were in as covered in woven baby blue silk and gold tapestries while the carpet was and stone was magical beast fur and marble with actual veins of gold running through it.
