Chapter 30: A Natural Regent Reader

Professor McGonagall sighed and conjured a quill.

"Since you don't want to use a time converter, you can take any other elective courses except for those basic courses.

You can now choose the subject you want to go to. ”

Professor McGonagall handed the quill to William, who quickly ticked off the lesson on the paper.

Professor McGonagall took the parchment, glanced at it, and raised her eyebrows: "William, I don't recommend that you choose Professor Trelawney's divination class, this course is enough for self-study. ”

"Why?" William said with a smile.

Oddly enough, Professor McGonagall generally does not interfere with students' choices.

Professor McGonagall said calmly, "Divination is one of the most inaccurate subjects in magic, and to tell you the truth, I am the most impatient with divination.

Very few people can really foresee the future, and Professor Trelawney ......"

Professor McGonagall didn't utter the word "liar" at all.

"Let me tell you this, Sybil dropped out of school in the first grade and has been studying at home." McGonagall confided.

"Can you still study at home?" William said confusedly.

He also thought that Hogwarts was compulsory for seven years, and that it was mandatory to spend it in school.

"It's not common now, but it used to happen a lot, especially during the time of persecution of wizards.

Some wizarding families will educate their children at home, but generally they are unable to go to school, or are particularly gifted young wizards. Professor McGonagall explained.

"Can't go to school?"

"Hmm...... It could be a squib, it could be silent. ”

"That Trelawney taught her ......"

"She was considered by her family to be particularly gifted, in divination. In case you didn't know, she was the great-great-granddaughter of the famous soothsayer Kassandra Trelawney.

But dare I say she didn't inherit that talent......"

"Professor, you don't like Professor Trelawney, do you?" William asked with a smile.

"It's fine." Professor McGonagall pouted, "There's a reason I don't like her. ”

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment, pondering whether she should tell William.

"At that time, when Sybil entered Ravenclaw......"

"Wait, Professor Trelawney is also a Ravenclaw student?" William raised an eyebrow.

"Of course!" Professor McGonagall joked, "These weirdos are usually from your Ravenclaw." ”

"Professor, you are discriminating against our academy!" William feigned displeasure.

"Don't you often say, 'Reckless Lion'?" Professor McGonagall gave William a blank look. "And you're beating Ron and Harry for being an idiot?"

William smiled awkwardly.

"It's okay, I think both of them are idiots too!"

Professor McGonagall curtailed a smile on her face and continued, "I was in seventh year when Sybil entered Ravenclaw, and she made a prophecy at the time...... About me. ”

"What prophecy?"

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath, "She predicted that I would die in seventh grade!" ”

"......: No wonder Professor McGonagall doesn't like Professor Trelawney.

"I'm still the first person she prophesied, but I'm not dead, and I'm alive until now." McGonagall laughed.

"Well, I'm going to attend a class, and if that's what you said, I'm going to take Professor Setima's Victor class in arithmetic divination."

"Alright, go to the Great Hall, don't miss your sister's sorting ceremony, I'm going to settle the matter with Potter and Weasley, two unconscious idiots!"

Professor McGonagall quickly walked away, and William entered the auditorium.

Despite the fact that Professor McGonagall is usually very strict, she is actually a very easy-going person in private, and occasionally jokes.

Not Dumbledore's kind of cold joke, of course.

At this time, Professor Flitwick took the place of Professor McGonagall and was holding the sorting ceremony.

The auditorium was a sea of pointed black hats; Each long table was filled with students, their faces lit up by thousands of candles suspended in mid-air above the tables.

William had missed out on the Sorting Hat's new song, which left him with some regret.

A little wizard was sitting in a chair, wearing a Sorting Hat.

William walked as quietly as he could towards the Ravenclaw table.

As he walked along the back of the auditorium, people looked back at him.

William didn't make any big news this summer, but that didn't stop him from continuing to grow in popularity.

William sat next to Cho, the little wizard who had been assigned to Hufflepuff.

"Luna Lovegood." Professor Flitwick shouted.

Luna bounced to her chair, and she picked up the Sorting Hat, but instead of putting it on immediately, she rummaged through it curiously.

She pulled a needle out of her pocket, as if trying to fix it for the Sorting Hat.

"Hurry up, whoever comes, save me, Dumbledore!" The Sorting Hat screamed in embarrassment.

William couldn't help but laugh, Luna really knew what to do.

Professor Flitwick coughed, reminding Luna to hurry.

The girl seemed to have just noticed Professor Flitwick, her eyes bulging out in surprise.

Before the hat touched Luna's head, the Sorting Hat couldn't wait to exclaim, "Ravenclaw! ”

The Ravenclaw students applauded, but not too enthusiastically.

Obviously, Luna's actions also scared them.

It's so weird!

William took the lead in applauding, and the applause was enthusiastic.

"Luna is weird, isn't she?" Autumn whispered.

When she sat on the train, she felt that Luna was a little crazy.

"Aren't all Ravenclaw students weird?" William said confusedly, "Professor McGonagall just said that we are a bunch of 'weirdos'. ”

Cho smiled and nodded, and the Ravenclaw students around him all agreed when they heard William say this.

Ravenclaw students love to label themselves as 'different'.

Luna walked over to the Ravenclaw table and sat down in a chair next to William.

"William, what are you doing off the train?" Cho continued to say suspiciously. "How did you end up near the beating willow?"

"Go do Cedric a little favor." William said. "He needs ......"

"He needs to beat the branches of the willows to make a wand." Luna said suddenly.

"Hmm...... Well? William looked at Luna and said in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

"What do I see with my eyes?" Luna stared at her big gray eyes.

William was stunned, his eyes suddenly becoming blank.

"Ahh It's out of sight. Luna said in surprise.

William was even more surprised, he said in disbelief: "Luna, are you going to take the gods?" ”

"What is the Regent?" Luna wondered.

"In layman's terms, it's about knowing what's going on in other people's minds."

"Oh, is that called the Regent's Mind? I don't know, I always thought it was mind reading, but my dad told me that wise people can do it. ”

"...... "It turns out that William has always been an unintelligent person.

This map cannon is a bit big!

"Luna, who did you learn from?"

"No one taught me." Luna shook her head.

"Born?" It was as if William had discovered a new world.

He had always felt that Luna had the ability to see through people's hearts, but he didn't expect her to be a natural dementor.

It was the first time William had seen such a wizard.

Ravenclaw College has picked up a treasure.
