Chapter Twenty-Nine: Another Year

Unlike the freshmen in the first year, the second-year Albert and his party sat directly in the open space outside the castle, where the railroad tracks were laid, and they only needed to get off the bus and walk directly to the castle, and all the salutes would be sent to their dormitories.

The seventh graders from last school year have also graduated, and the vacant rooms belong to the new children this year.

On the first floor of Hogwarts Hall, Albert walked straight to his place, followed by Hermione. Draco said goodbye and walked over to the Slytherin table.

"Speaking of which, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley don't seem to have arrived yet? I didn't see them on the train. Albert looked curiously at the empty spot on the other side, which belonged to Harry and Ron.

"You know, he's the savior of the wizarding world, and maybe it's normal to be a little late." Hermione didn't think she needed to care much about the two classmates who had been deducting points from Gryffindor in the previous school year, she just had to do her own thing and add more points to Gryffindor.

"Okay, but look at the teacher's seat."

Hearing Albert say this, Hermione looked up at the teacher's seat.

Sitting next to Snape, a greasy-haired Potions professor, was the mysterious magician the two met in the United States, Balthazar Black.

"He's handsome today."

Instead of being dressed in the same shabby way as in the United States, Balthazar today wears robes made of dragon skin and gloves made of shark skin. It's just that because of the cover of the table, there is no way to see if he is still wearing the old-fashioned leather shoes.

Whether Ron and Harry arrive or not, the Earth still has to turn, no matter who leaves it. Dumbledore glanced anxiously at the place belonging to Harry Potter, but then relieved - the so-called prophecy was no longer of much significance, and Harry Potter had lost the scars left by Voldemort. And Voldemort has also crossed the limits of ordinary wizards, and now Harry Potter has no right to be in danger at all.

Dumbledore clapped his hands and stood in front of the teacher's seat, "Welcome back to Hogwarts Castle, the new year is about to begin." First of all, let me introduce this year's teaching team, due to the departure of Professor Quirrell, this year our Defence Against the Dark Arts class will be led by Mr. Balthazar Black! ”

As soon as he heard the word Black, Draco immediately focused his attention on Balthazar, he had long known that the Black family was his mother's former family, and the Black family now had no talent in Britain except Sirius Black in Azkaban.

"Mr. Black, who has been living in the United States, came to England at my invitation to teach at Hogwarts. You know, Mr. Black has a very legendary experience, he once subdued evil wizards in China, and there is a story of defeating werewolf vampires...... "He is one of Merlin's three apprentices in the fairy tale of the wizarding world, sealed the witch of destruction, and defeated the king of demons and insects, the source of the Black Death, but the latter words, Dumbledore knew that he couldn't say it, the mythical characters really appeared in life, I'm afraid the little wizards of the following four colleges will go crazy."

United States? Hearing this word, Draco's face became less strange, "Maybe this Black is a side of the Black family a long time ago." ”

"What's more interesting is that Mr. Black has a crucible...... That's his ancestor," Dumbledore knew that the students below didn't pay much attention to this subject due to the waste materials taught in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the past few years, so after getting Balthazar's authorization, he made up a background for Balthazar, "Little wizards, you should have read the "Tales of the Poet Pedou", right?" And what Mr. Black has is the crucible in the story. ”

"Oh!" Although Dumbledore made it up well, the young wizards below were not very interested in a crucible that forced wizards to love Muggles, and only the Gryffindor children clapped their hands.

Dumbledore pursed his lips, he had forgotten that the current "Tales of the Poet Bean" had long since been changed beyond recognition, and he was afraid that the young wizards would take Mr. Black for a fool.

After all, some of today's most influential wizards, such as Brutus Malfoy, editor of the anti-Muggle magazine Wizards at War, have kept a fixed routine: Muggle-minded people are magically squibs. Brutus wrote in 1675:

We can say with certainty that any wizard who expresses a liking for Muggle society is a person of low intelligence, whose magic is weak and vulnerable, and who can only find a little superiority in Muggle waste.

One of the surest signs of whether someone's magic is lame is to see if they show a preference for non-magical people.

But many of the world's most prominent wizards were, in layman's terms, "Muggle-loving people", and in the face of this overwhelming evidence, this prejudice faded into obscurity.

"Alright, alright! In addition to Mr. Balthazar Black, we will be adding a new elective this year-" Dumbledore gestured to the end of the teacher's chair, and a new table appeared, filled with food, "Magical architecture - we all know that building a house by hand is not meant to be hard work, so we have to hire Muggles to build a house for us, but once we have learned this course, we can make a beautiful building with just a wave of a wand." The professor of this course is Outlet Aalto. ”

After Dumbledore finished speaking, a handsome middle-aged man with a golden head appeared in the shadow of the corner, "Hogwarts is the best building. As he spoke, he stepped over to his teacher's seat.

This is a course that Dumbledore finally came up with, Greenwald, who single-handedly built the most impregnable prison in the wizarding world, is definitely qualified to be a professor of architecture, but Dumbledore doesn't know if it was the right decision for him to put the world's most dangerous wizard in Hogwarts.

I hope Greenwald is here, and he can fight off that devil with him! Dumbledore thought that the current Voldemort was no longer the Dark Lord, the Dark Wizard or the like, ha, a real devil, that was the current Voldemort. And there's a dangerous Yin corpse by his side? It seems that according to the name of the East, it should be called a zombie.

"That's it! Now, let's start sorting! ”

With that, Dumbledore returned to his faculty chair, and at the same time, Professor McGonagall walked to the front desk, and after she looked cautiously at Balthazar and Greenwald (outlets), she put the Sorting Hat on her chair, "Now, the person whose name I pronounce, come here and bring your hat......"

The hat opened its mouth and began to sing, and all the seniors had to cover their ears, but they fell into deep thought, it was their lost youth, the past-

"That was more than a thousand years ago,

I've just been woven into shape,

There are four famous wizards,

Their names have survived to this day:

Brave Gryffindor, from a barren swamp,

Beautiful Ravenclaw, from the tranquil riverside,

Merciful Hufflepuff, from the open valley,

Shrewd Slytherin, from that quagmire.

They share a dream, a wish,

At the same time, there is a bold plan,

To nurture young wizards into talents,

Hogwarts School was founded in this way.

These four great wizards

Everybody builds his own college,

They are in the students they teach

There are different ideas about the talent valued.

Gryffindor believes that the bravest of the people

deserves the highest reward;

Ravenclaw felt that the minds were the smartest

Always the most promising;

Hufflepuff felt that the most diligent and hard-working

to be the most qualified to enter the college;

And power-hungry Slytherins

I like ambitious teenagers the most.

The four great wizards in their living years

personally pick out the proud protégé,

But when they were laid to rest in the Nine Springs,

How do you select the best in the student pool?

It was Gryffindor who came up with the solution,

He plucked me off his head,

The Big Four have all injected me with thoughts,

From now on, it is up to me to pick and evaluate!

Okay, put me on the head,

I've never looked at it,

I want to look at your mind,

Determine which house you belong to! ”

At the end of the sorting house, after everyone had finished their snacks, neither Harry Potter nor Ron had yet arrived at the school.

"Let's lead the new students back to the dormitory." Dumbledore had thought that this was the end of the night, but suddenly, Filch walked in, "Dumbledore! That naughty guy named Harry Potter and that nasty red Weasley drove their car into a willow tree that would hit people! The tree is crazy now, and those two imps are now going to the infirmary! I think you should warn them! It's not a good idea to start flying from home to school and crashing into a tree! ”

"Flying car?" Everyone's focus was on the Savior's troubles again, and only Albert's scattered mind thought of the speeding car. "I thought, Hermione, we can work on that flying car tomorrow...... You know, I can't afford the broomstick, and I'm too busy this summer, but we can study the technology of the flying car - the car wizards can't produce it, they can only modify it. An anti-gravity aircraft powered by an internal combustion engine? oh－my－”

Albert was about to exclaim, but Hermione held her head with her left hand and covered his mouth with her right hand, "It's not my God, it's Merlin!" In the wizarding world, it is normal to say this.

I also just found out that Ron's family would actually transform this kind of thing, you look at the Weasley brothers, and that little girl, the girl named Ginny Weasley when she was just sorted, well, I know you've been wandering just now, and their family is probably only Posey who seems to be a reliable person......"
