And here we go for the unbetaed chapter 120 of The odds were never in my favour.

It is titled Knight Necromancer. Ironically, choosing the title was one of the most difficult parts of the writing process, the rest flowed rather easily after that...

Ah, well. At least I was able to complete it and send it to the beta before the Olympic Games began. Mission accomplished, as they say...

Enjoy!

Honestly the doubling of the points for the seventh round just seems unfair, cause the only person to be truly screwed over with this addition is Alex. She's at 390 and Eleonora is at 326, so even if Riva gets 100 points she would be at 426 meaning Alex with a mere 37 points would win. To be truly sadistic, I feel the judges should have taken a page from the Tri-Wizard Tournament and made it so that all the points from the previous rounds are essentially meaningless, so that whoever wins the 7th round wins the Tournament and that the points were really only for the school ranking and choosing the winners of each round. In canon, the more points you had the bigger head start you got, so many every 100 points could have been an addition focus or something.

Thanks for the chapter. Great job! I didn't quite understand what the Knight Necromancer said her goal was. Did she really say she intended to hold the power over the Light that the Archmage used to hold AND the power over the Dark that the King used to hold AND become the Champion of Fate?

Champion of Fate, but naturally, since she is a creature of the Dark, Fate has to go Dark with her.

Now that would be incredibly cruel. And yeah, I know in canon that the points of the first two Tasks only gave you a minor time advantage during the Third Task. At that point, one might truly wonders what was the point of organising the previous Tasks in the first place...so no, the points have their importance. However, there are big rewards for each Task, so even Champions who aren't able to win the Tournament anymore have the hope to win the last Task...
