Everyone in Hogwarts had just recovered from the weirdness caused by Draco, when another situation made them sluggish again.
In the expectant eyes of all the wizards, Harry, the savior whose name was called, walked up to Professor McGonagall and took the poor Mr. Sorting Hat with him somewhat solemnly.
Everyone didn¡¯t wait long before they heard the ravaged Sorting Hat give an answer that was beyond everyone¡¯s expectations.
"Slytherin."
It wasn¡¯t until the relieved Harry took off the Sorting Hat and walked up to his good friend Draco with a smile that everyone in the daze came to their senses, and there was a burst of whispers that were much higher than before.
As for the identity of the savior, the young wizard and even most of the professors have speculated. The brave and enthusiastic Gryffindor, the smart and studious Ravenclaw, and the honest and simple Hufflepuff can be accepted by everyone, but few outsiders think of the insidious and cunning Slytherin. After all, the reputation of little snakes has always been bad. A savior who has lived and studied there can easily become the second Dark Lord. This is definitely not what everyone wants to see
¡¡
Seeing this result, the corners of Victor¡¯s mouth became even more playful.
"Dear Headmaster, what do you think of Harry's choice? Isn't it interesting?"
"Why¡¡"
What responded to him was the old mage's long sigh.
"It's indeed interesting, but is this really good?"
Because of Victor, Dumbledore did not value Harry as much as in the original novel, and his tone was naturally less solemn and more relaxed and ridiculing. But this doesn't mean that he will let all this develop. He also doesn't want Harry to become the second Dark Lord. It is also for this reason that he responded to Master Zhai like this. I hope someone can explain the reason for doing this.
"How about we make a bet?"
For the very suspicious Dumbledore, the home mage was too lazy to waste time and decided to use time to prove everything.
"How about we make a bet on Grindelwald's beard? If Harry becomes the second Dark Lord, I will steal Grindelwald's beard for you, and vice versa, what do you think?"
"What on earth do you know?"
Hearing this name hidden deep in his heart from Victor again, the old mage looked a little unnatural.
Grindelwald, I
"You know everything you need to know."
Looking at the old mage¡¯s somewhat concealed expression, the zhai mage showed a bright smile.
The reason why he said this was not all because of the bad taste in his heart. Dumbledore is getting older. If he doesn't make up for his regrets now, only Merlin knows whether he will have another chance in the future. At this time, since he and the old mage brought the topic up, the black-robed mage naturally didn't mind helping out so that the two old men who had experienced too much suffering could have a happy ending.
After gritting his teeth for a while, Dumbledore finally spit out a somewhat stiff word.
"make a deal."
"OK."
Hearing this, Master Zhai¡¯s smile became unclear.
I can only help so much
While the two were whispering, Quirrell and Snape, who were also sitting at the teacher's desk, were not idle either.
Regarding Harry Potter entering Slytherin, the Dark Lord was far less happy and relaxed than others imagined. Harry Potter's choice of Slytherin means that the savior is likely to choose the same path as him and eventually fight him to take away everything he originally had. This is definitely not what he wants to see. Maybe others would think that his worries were completely unnecessary. After all, the gap between him and Harry was huge, and it would be difficult for Harry to catch up with him in more than ten years. But the last failure gave him a fear that he didn't even realize, and gave him some instinctive fear of Harry Potter.
As for Professor Snape? In addition to paying close attention to Quirrell's expression in order to speculate on the Dark Lord's thoughts, the Potions Master also focused more on Harry.
Professor Shen has always had complicated thoughts about the little black cat.
Because he can always see two figures in Harry, one is his favorite Lily, and the other is his most hated James, so he always doesn't know how to face Harry. What he didn't notice was that he already had a choice. Just like now, when he saw Harry integrating smoothly into the Slytherin students under Draco's guidance, any trace of worry in his heart disappeared without a trace.
¡¡
Until Professor McGonagall sent the last little wizard to Hufflepuff, this sorting ceremony, which was much more exciting than before, finally ended.
There is no doubt about Ron¡¯s ownership.It was the Gryffindor he had long awaited.
Watching his new friend walk to the Gryffindor table without saying a word and not looking in his direction, Harry naturally felt a little melancholy. Fortunately, he had Draco, a considerate good friend, by his side, who patted his shoulder comfortingly, diluting the melancholy in his heart a lot.
"I am okay¡¡"
Feeling his friend's concern, Harry smiled shyly.
After laughing, he heard the old mage speak in a gentle and naughty voice from the teacher's bench, announcing that the new semester of Hogwarts would begin today.
"Welcome to Hogwarts and wish you all a happy new semester."
After saying this, the old mage paused for a moment and then continued.
"Everyone, before dinner starts, please allow me to waste some time and talk a little nonsense First of all, let us welcome the return of a professor and the arrival of a new professor. They are Professor Victor from the cooking class. And Professor Quirrell from the Defense Against the Dark Arts class"
"Oh"
As soon as the old mage finished speaking, the little wizards in third grade and above cheered in unison.
If you were to choose the most interesting course at Hogwarts, it would definitely be relaxed and free. I only taught cooking classes for a little more than half a year. These little wizards had been lost for a long time due to Professor Victor's sudden departure. Now, when they see the familiar cooking professor returning again, they will naturally cheer enthusiastically.
"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone. This year's cooking class is no different from before. I am waiting for everyone to arrive at the same time and place."
At the old mage¡¯s signal, the home mage stood up and said to the young wizards under him.
"Ouch"
As soon as he finished speaking, the little animals shouted with a louder voice to express the uncontrollable excitement in their hearts. This situation lasted for a long time before gradually stopping, which shows how popular someone is at Hogwarts.
Until the scene became quiet, the old mage motioned Professor Quirrell to stand up and give a brief introduction to everyone.
"EveryoneHello, I, I am QuirrellProfessor Quirrell"
Quirrell¡¯s performance was no different from that in the original work. He looked like a fool, which made Victor no longer want to look at it, and temporarily turned his attention to Christina.
It is really pitiful that a generation of demon kings have fallen into such a state and rely on pretending to be crazy and acting stupid to deceive others. However, he does not deserve sympathy. If his original methods had been gentler, put on a standard face of a politician, and made his superficial appearance more beautiful, he would never have become what he is now.
When Professor Quirrell finished stammering, he was greeted with sparse applause just as the Dark Lord expected.
The little wizards were generous enough not to snicker openly at this time.
Although all this was expected by the Dark Lord, the treatment that was far different from Victor still made him dissatisfied, and he secretly hated this crooked professor from the East when they first met. At this time, the Dark Lord did not know that most of his Horcruxes had been destroyed in someone's hands, otherwise he would never have simply felt hatred.
As for the connection between the Dark Lord and Horcruxes?
I have been worried that the secret Voldemort cut off for others, just like the notebook king in the original work, and I need to know what happened over the past 50 years through Ginny. What's more, now he is just a remnant soul, without even basic magic power. It is very difficult to confirm the status of those Horcruxes and who can destroy them. Besides, every time the Horcrux is destroyed, the house mage has put in sufficient defense to ensure that nothing will be leaked.
After introducing the two professors, Dumbledore paused for a moment again and continued to say the next thing.
"In addition, I have another news to announce. Professor Victor has arranged a small game called 'Dungeon' for everyone somewhere in Hogwarts. I hope everyone will look for it carefully and experience it for yourself." The latest from 'The Toy Store You Know'"
Hearing this name, the corner of the Dark Lord's mouth twitched again.
This is completely contempt for him. If it weren't for the inappropriate time, he would definitely pull out the wand without hesitation and throw a dozen Cruciatus Curses at someone.
"Hmm, as for the specific gameplay and rewards, please explore on your own, little wizards Your evil Professor Victor kept it a secret from me, so I can't help you, everything depends on you Finally, I will give A word of advice to everyone, this game is only suitable for third grade wizards and above, please first and second grade wizards play within their capabilities."
After saying this in a naughty tone, the old mage twitchedHe pointed the wand at the empty plate in front of him.
With his movements, countless rich and tempting foods appeared out of thin air, bringing the little wizards who were stunned by the continuous good news back to reality.
"Please enjoy a sumptuous dinner Oh, by the way, there are two more things to announce. One is the curfew and the other is the forbidden forest. These two things are no different from usual. Do you have any questions for the first-year students? Just your seniors, I believe they will be happy to answer you"
After finishing what he had to say, Dumbledore happily picked up a piece of sweet pudding and threw it into his mouth with a face full of joy.
He can never get enough of the sweet and greasy taste.
In this way, amid the excited, expectant, sad, and malicious discussions among many young wizards, the new semester of Hogwarts life began
