Unless you have a special ability to change people's minds, such as Yuri in the Soviet Union, Charles in the United States, or Oakington's Esoteric Shadow Sacrifice, it is clear that a conversation is not enough to change people's deep-seated beliefs by the power of words.

Even all of the greatest leaders, fighters, or spiritual teachers in human history know the importance of gradually, and most of the time it takes days or even years for a new value to be formed, unless it is a major ideological shift that comes from experiencing it once.

Not to mention, Elena knew quite well that as a young first-year wizard who had just joined Hogwarts, the authority and weight of her words were even less pitiful. Therefore, she did not rush to continue to expand and elaborate on the nature of badgers, and the qualities that Hufflepuff House should have.

All she did was sow a seed in the hearts of all of them.

As life's dilemmas and doubts continue to emerge, this seed will take root in the soil of hesitation and self-doubt, and when the nature of the honey badger is gradually explored and confirmed by the curious and confused young wizards, the ancient legend and the story will be combined by themselves just right, and finally slowly condense into a belief in their minds.

Looking around the week, full of thoughtful, disdainful, or suspicious expressions, the delicate face of the mixed-race little Meiwa made a stunning charming smile emerge - obviously, the seeds have been successfully planted, and all that remains is the guidance and watering accumulated over time.

So...... Next, it's time for them to think about life.

Elena's eyes flickered, and she softened her tone a little as she was preparing for the final paragraph.

"Actually, before coming to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I had heard a lot of stories about the four houses. Even on the Hogwarts Express, the most discussed topic for our freshmen was about the Sorting House. ”

"The four Hogwarts houses, they all say that there are a lot of rice buckets in Hufflepuff, and the only specialty is that they can eat ......"

The senior wizards who were still licking their wands froze in their hands, and one by one they lowered their wands and wiped them on their robes without leaving a trace.

"Every year, Hufflepuff has the most students who fail. For many years, there has never been a top student in the first grade. It's even rarer to get extra points from your professor for your outstanding performance in class, and you usually only earn a few points when you need to put in the effort. ”

The old students standing in the Hufflepuff common room began to show a little resentment on their faces, and opened their mouths, but they didn't say anything.

"Despite having the largest number of people in the four houses, Hufflepuff is not very good at Quidditch and is more like a sparring team for the other three houses in the school. The talent for flying in the sky doesn't seem to have a fate with the Hufflepuffs that live in the dirt. ”

Hufflepuff Quidditch players such as Cedric Diggory are starting to look ugly, and it has become almost a nightmare curse for Hufflepuffs to have the most personnel to choose from but rarely win a Quidditch Cup.

"Others say that Hufflepuff is a place where honour is not all and that the House Cup is often the bottom of the list. If they are sorted here, they may choose to drop out......"

As the prefect, Shanna's face has long been left with a polite stiff smile, a long time of humility and tolerance, and a particularly satisfying house atmosphere, which makes the whole house filled with a lazy atmosphere. In this case, unless a few houses have a very serious point deduction, Hufflepuff will always be at the bottom.

As if not seeing the grim-faced Hufflepuff badgers around her, Elena continued to herself, speaking at a rate that gradually became softer, but faster, and forced to concentrate more to hear clearly.

"Everybody's saying: don't mess with the sinister Slytherin, beware of the aggressive Gryffindors, wary of the clever Ravenclaws, and as for the Hufflepuffs? ”

"Oh, yes. Come to think of it, that's how they describe Hufflepuff House's ......"

"The legendary house-elf academy. ”

Speaking of this, Elena paused slightly, and looked around the common room, many Hufflepuff wizards had begun to gasp, their fists clenched and loosened, and the resentment on their faces could be seen even by those who no longer knew how to read words.

However, there was a trace of sadness in the depths of the girl's eyes - even so, none of the senior male witches and witches present took the initiative to stand up to argue or express anger, like a group of silent lambs.

Alas.

Elena seemed to hear the same sigh from the depths of her soul, a situation she was not unfamiliar with, it should be too familiar, as she had witnessed and understood in her previous life and the people who lived around her.

"Why, you don't speak? In fact, how I wish someone would come out and refute and stop it, why didn't you ?!。 ”

After a brief silence, Elena lowered her eyes, and a sudden irritation rose in her heart—even though she had expected such a scene, but she was not at all happy—and her voice rose slightly, "I said, shouldn't we need to try something different, maybe the fish in the black lake are a good opportunity to try." ”

With that, Elena's eyes stopped on the girls' division Dath Shanna and Cedric Diggory, who will be the boys' prefect next year.

"Let's think about it again, and it's better to discuss it more. Darth Shanna said slowly, hesitantly, "Hufflepuff House has long been the friendliest and gentlest wizard of all, and we are respected and loved in the house. The reason why the Academy Cup score is not high is also because we don't have quarrels and fights with others for fame. ”

Frankly, as a Hufflepuff 6th grader, Shanna doesn't really plan to make much of a move in her heart, as well as her future work.

Shanna wasn't alone, this terrible inertia and inertia was present in the minds of almost all senior Hufflepuff students at the same time. Therefore, when Shanna, who was the prefect, said this, almost all the senior little wizards had a slightly lighter look on their faces and nodded in unison.

After all, the status quo of Hufflepuff has been stable for nearly a hundred years.

The activity continues, and if the chapter of the water breaks 500, add a more chapter.

(By the way, share a real thing, Yu Meng Meng is a little badger.) In the official HP post bar, the Badger House is the least populated college. The most common private message received by the president of the badger house was whether he could transfer to the hospital. The show-off background boards of the three courtyards are almost all badger courtyards, and the badger courtyards are almost the default emotional vents. However, badger houses are usually in a situation of almost complete silence and beating, except for cheering themselves up, you are the best. As for the honey badgers who took the initiative to fight back, well, they were banned and expelled by everyone, including their own prefects and deans, for being ungentle and unfriendly. Just like Newt Scamander, who was expelled from school. ）
