Stark in Harry Potter World - Chapter 18
Chapter 18 The Essence of the Wizard
Some people showed up with a smile, some brought bgm, and some people didn’t think bgm was too addictive, so they just carried the stereo by themselves.
But the tall, black-haired witch in an emerald green robe in front of her did not make any bells and whistles. She came with a cold wind blowing in her face.
No one dared to speak anymore from the little wizards who complained just now.
Professor McGonagall, one of the few people most feared by the Weasley brothers, was so serious and pursed his lips.
“First-year freshman, Professor McGonagall.” Hagrid said quickly, avoiding the witch’s eyes.
“Thank you, Hagrid. Leave them to me now.”
Hagrid gave William a look of good luck, turned around and walked in from the other side in a hurry.
It seemed that he was also panicked.
Can you not be shocked?!
Hagrid used magic several times during the summer vacation, and secretly bought a three-headed dog banned by the Ministry of Magic… Now is the time for a guilty conscience.
Even if McGonagall is still his primary school girl!
Professor McGonagall opened the door wide, revealing a luxurious marble staircase leading upstairs. The surrounding stone walls were full of flaming torches, and the ceiling was so high that it was almost invisible.
The first-year freshmen followed Professor McGonagall along the stone-paved floor, and hundreds of people hummed from the door on the right.
But Professor McGonagall didn’t lead them directly into the hall. Instead, he turned a corner and walked to the other end of the hall, in a small empty room.
Everyone rushed in, rubbing their backs and squeezing together, staring nervously at everything around them.
“First of all, welcome you to Hogwarts.” Professor McGonagall said: “The opening banquet is about to begin, but before going to the restaurant, we must first determine which House each of you will enter.”
“Classification is a very important ceremony, because while you are at school, the House is like your home at Hogwarts.
You have to take classes with other students in the House, stay together in the House dormitory, and spend your spare time together in the House’s common room.”
“The names of the four Houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Each House has its own glorious history and has produced outstanding wizards.
During your studies at Hogwarts, your outstanding performance will earn points for your college, and any violations will deduct points for your college.
At the end of the year, the House with the highest score will receive the House Cup, which is a high honor.
I hope you, no matter which House you are assigned to, can win glory for the House, instead of being naughty all day long!”
Professor McGonagall said the last words of the old man, and glanced at William.
Through those stern eyes, William felt that the other party seemed to know about the train.
His instincts are always accurate!
However, he can only be counted as the most inconspicuous of many accomplices.
Compared with the heinous and wicked main criminal Weasley brothers, and the sniff, William is not worth mentioning!
He so comforted his young and fragile soul.
Fortunately, McGonagall only glanced at William, and didn’t sneak him out, criticizing him in public.
William wiped the sweat from his forehead. He felt that if his mental quality was almost inferior, he would probably be scared and cry directly, right?
As expected of Professor McGonagall!
“In a few minutes, the Houseing ceremony will be held in front of the teachers and students of the school. I suggest that you take a good time to ease your tension.”
“When it’s ready over there, I’ll come to pick you up.” Professor McGonagall turned and walked into the hall. She turned her head and said, “While waiting, please keep quiet.”
But Professor McGonagall left the room, and everyone began to buzz.
“How can they accurately assign us to which House?” A girl looked at William and asked.
This man was called Marietta Ekmore, and he had just squeezed in a small boat with William, and barely took his hand, squeezed into his arms, and shivered.
William didn’t speak. As a repertoire, he didn’t know how to sort the hospital.
The boy named Komike McLagen proudly flaunted: “Don’t worry about the test, I will definitely go to school, my uncle…”
His uncle Tibelus knew Rufus Scrimgeour of the Ministry of Magic, who was the director of the Auror office.
This time, McLagen has repeated it four or five times.
The essence of human beings is a repeater, and sorcerers are no exception.
McLagen also boasted of his flying talents. He said he would enter the Quidditch team in the first grade and become the youngest player ever.
The boy said, giving William a provocative look.
This attitude probably started when he knew that William was only a Muggle.
William touched his wand, trying to quietly cast him a silent spell to lock his noisy mouth, but Professor McGonagall just came over.
William immediately pretended to be honest.
So McLagen suffered. Professor McGonagall stood behind him like a ghost, and the boy was still chattering about his uncle’s friends.
“Don’t care about your uncle, you’re talking so much nonsense, I will definitely send you home!” Professor McGonagall said harshly.
McLagen was so frightened that his legs were soft, he shuddered and almost knocked Marietta Ekmore down.
The girl gave him a death gaze, then moved towards William, as if she wanted to hide in his arms, so that she felt safe.
Behind Professor McGonagall, Qiu winked and motioned for William to seize the opportunity.
Take a fart! William said that he was here to learn, not to fall in love!
Of course, if a witch has a good face, he doesn’t mind becoming a soul mate with the other party!
But Marietta Ekmore must have no chance in this little girl movie.
“Ah”-a scream came suddenly.
McLagen howled, it turned out that there were a few ghosts behind him.
He was frightened, and the people around him were the same, and the temperature of the entire room seemed to have dropped a bit.
These pearly white, translucent ghosts glided across the room, whispering to each other, paying little attention to these first-year freshmen. They seemed to be arguing about something.
“Hurry up and find Barrow the Blood Man. Only he can control the Pipi Ghost.” said a ghost in a wheel-shaped wrinkled-collar tights.
“Barrow, the blood man, went to see Ms. Gray, you know, recently there was a problem in the Ravenclaw lounge,” said a chubby little monk-like ghost.
“So let’s give Pippi one more chance, just let him attend the banquet—”
“Absolutely impossible! My good monk, don’t we have enough opportunities for Pippi? But he discredited us all–hey, I said, what are you doing here?”
The ghost in the wheel-shaped ruffled-collar tights suddenly spotted a freshman.
McLagen quickly hid behind William in fright, which made Professor McGonagall’s lips tighten.
“Newborn!” The chubby monk smiled at them. “I think, maybe you are going to be tested?”
William nodded friendly.
“I hope you can get Hufflepuff!” said the monk, “I went to that House before.”
The ghosts walked toward the hall, wandering through the opposite wall and disappeared, and Professor McGonagall’s voice sounded again.
“Now move forward, the sorting ceremony will begin soon.” Professor McGonagall said to the freshman.
Everyone walked honestly towards the hall.
—————— I am the separator of the repeater————
In order to solicit everyone’s Donation, McLagen will repeat it a hundred times during the Houseing Ceremony.
