HxH in Harry Potter World - Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Glory of Slytherin!!
“First of all, welcome to Slytherin House, I’m Prefect Gemma Farley.”
On the way to the Slytherin lounge, Uvogin quietly listened to the introduction by Prefect Farley.
“Our representative creature is the snake, shrewd, sleek, and powerful. The colors of our academy are silver and emerald, which represent nobility and snakes. Perhaps many of you have heard something about News from Slytherin.
Now, listen carefully to what I have to say, remember what you should remember, and forget what you should forget.” Prefect Farley’s tone was undeniably tough.
“In those fabricated rumors, Slytherin is often described as an evil House, full of evil dark wizards. Regarding this, I do not deny that our academy has indeed produced dark wizards, But are the other three Houses completely clean?
Even Hufflepuff, who is known for his honesty and integrity, or Gryffindor, who is known for his courage, have walked out of many dark wizards, but they don’t want to admit it.” Prefect Farley said contemptuously.
In fact, what she said is right. Dark wizards have appeared in both Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, but the number is relatively small.
As for Ravenclaw?
Sorry, the dark wizards they came out are no less than Slytherin!
On the road of seeking knowledge and pursuing truth, it is inevitable that some less bright means will be used.
The desire for knowledge makes it easy for Ravenclaw to take a wrong path, because the desire for knowledge, of course, also includes those forbidden knowledge.
Maybe that desire will be even stronger.
“What I want to tell you is that Slytherin not only has evil dark wizards, but in the long history, our House has also cultivated characters who shake the wizarding world.
As Mr. Uvogin said, even the most famous wizard in the Middle Ages, the most powerful and influential wizard since ancient times, Merlin graduated from Slytherin!”
There were bursts of exclamations among the freshmen in Slytherin. Uvogin who already know, just smiled.
“Of course this is true. It has been jointly researched by many well-known historians including Bathilda Bagshot. It is a conclusion that can stand the test and scrutiny. It can be found in the Hogwarts library.”
“I just want to tell you that Slytherin is not as bad as the outside world says, we have our own unique values, and we have cultivated the most outstanding wizards in history.
Would you rather follow in Merlin’s footsteps and start your magical journey in the common room where he studied and lived, or would you prefer to sit with former Hufflepuff student and inventor of the brilliant self-cleaning rag, Eglandina Parsons?
I think the answer is obvious.”
There was a burst of laughter from the crowd. If Hogwarts also has a chain of contempt, then Hufflepuff is probably the only one that is despised by all three houses.
However, there is no doubt that Helga Hufflepuff is a great wizard, and the lady accepted all students who are qualified to learn magic with a tolerant heart, even though they may not be considered by Gryffindor, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw selected.
But the lady still accepted them and made it possible for them to continue learning magic. She treated all the students equally, imparted her knowledge to them without reservation, and trained them into adults with the teaching philosophy of loyalty and hard work. Laying the cornerstone of the wizarding world.
Historically, the vast majority of Ministers for Magic have been Hufflepuffs, including the current Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge.
But let’s stop here about Hufflepuff,
Now is Slytherin’s time.
“…as far as our controversial values, yes, I admit, we want to win, and we’re going to be a little bit unscrupulous about it.
But in our opinion, the so-called unscrupulous means is not without bottom line. The real Slytherin is very good at seeking the maximum benefit for himself within the scope allowed by the rules. We think this is the shrewdness of Slytherin.
And the so-called adapting to the wind is easier to explain.
That’s because we understand a truth, throughout the ages, history is always written by the victors. And Slytherin will always be on the side of the winner.
I admit that most of the time Slytherin only cares about himself, that’s because most of the time, we don’t recognize those objects as worthy of our help, friendship exists in the snake group, but it is extremely rare, because it is recognized by Slytherin won’t be an easy task.”
“Therefore, for the first-year freshmen, I hope that you can take care of yourself first, do less stupid things, and don’t start thinking about helping others like other Houses who can’t take care of themselves.”
Perhaps in other houses, selflessness and helping others are very noble virtues, but here is Slytherin.
Snakes don’t like this.
Different Houses concepts cultivate wizards with completely different views.
If every little snake can handle its own problems well, then naturally it doesn’t need help from others.
This is the unique viewpoint of Snake House.
“Also, I hope that many old students will also listen to me. Although Slytherin still insists on bloodline theory, if we want to grow and develop, we must introduce some new blood. This is an indisputable fact.
Whether it is pure blood or not, if he is strong, then we will accept him as part of Slytherin. Slytherin must be united within, we can’t afford internal friction.”
There is no doubt that Prefect Farley’s words were intended to help Uvogin a bit.
Hearing this, Draco Malfoy standing beside him, he snorted.
Under the leadership of Prefect Farley, they arriving underground, Slytherin walked towards the corridor on the left under the leadership of Prefect Farley. There is the Potions classroom, Professor Snape’s office, and Hufflepuff walked down the corridor on the right.
If I remember correctly, that’s where the kitchen is.
After passing Professor Snape’s office, Prefect Farley led the little snakes around in the dark and damp underground corridor, and finally came to a wall that looked ordinary.
“Remember this wall, this is the entrance to the Slytherin lounge. If you look carefully, there is a small snake pattern on the wall at every intersection you have passed before, and the direction the snake head is pointing is direction of Slytherin Lounge.”
“I want you to keep that in mind, because I don’t want to see any Slytherin foolish enough not to be able to find a common room in their own house, and likewise I don’t want to hear that other houses know our secrets.”
“Stand in front of this wall and say the password to enter the Slytherin lounge. The password is changed every two weeks, and a notice will be posted on the bulletin board in the lounge every time it changes.
Remember, the watchword for these two weeks is Profit.”
