Chapter 7: Solo
"Gryffindor!"
As the Sorting Hat announced loudly, Yugaya smiled cutely.
Dumbledore smiled kindly, he stood up, looked at the students with a smile on his face, and stretched out his arms to them, as if nothing made him happier than seeing the students all together.
"Welcome!" He said, "Welcome to Hogwarts to start the new school year!" Before the banquet begins, I would like to say a few words. That's it: stupid! Cry! Residue! Wring! ”
"Thank you!" He sat back down.
"What does that mean?" Hermione frowned in thought, and asked Yugaya again.
The plate in front of Yugaya was already full of food: roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steaks, boiled potatoes, potato chips, Yorkshire pudding, pea sprouts, carrots, gravy, ketchup, and even mint hard candy.
Yugaya pulled out a bottle of chili sauce from his backpack and replied nonchalantly: "I don't know, probably Ravenclaw evaluates others as stupid; Gryffindor thinks others love to cry; Slytherin looks at portraits and looks at the dregs; Hufflepuff thinks the others are too hot-tempered. ”
Hermione looked at Yugaya as if she was chatting about home, and at this moment, Yugaya's image in her mind became clearer, kind, quiet, low-key and intelligent with connotation.
The atmosphere at the table is very congenial and lively.
Nick the Ghost performed for everyone what it means to almost lose his head.
"I'm half and half." Seamus Finigan said, "Dad was a Muggle, and Mom didn't tell Dad she was a witch until she got married." But it scared him a lot. ”
Everyone laughs, and Neville tells the story of how he was forced to use magic as a child.
Yugaye glanced at the long table at Slytherin House, where Carlisle quietly ate the food on his plate, answering as gently as ever to his classmates.
There was also a little blonde boy who looked fair and delicate, and Jugaya remembered that his name seemed to be Draco Malfoy.
Draco also spoke to Carlisle, and the surrounding voices were a little noisy, and Yugaya didn't hear them.
Draco's arrogant little expression also looked cute, but Yugaye was a little displeased, probably because he was talking to Carlisle with this expression.
Carlisle glanced over to Yugaya, just in time to see her twist her head back.
Carlisle smiled, his blue eyes as deep as a sea of stars.
Professor Dumbledore stood up again, the pudding on the table vanished, and the dining room returned to silence.
"Oh, now that everyone is full and drunk, I want to say a few more words to everyone. At the beginning of the semester, I would like to make a few points to note with you. Dumbledore said, "First-year students should be aware that the woods on campus are off-limits to students. Some of our old classmates should also remember this. ”
Dumbledore's eyes lit up as he glanced over to the Weasley twins.
"Also, Mr. Filch, the administrator, wants me to remind everyone not to do magic in the hallways between classes.
"The Quidditch player review will take place in the second week of the term. If you are interested in joining the college team, please contact Mrs. Huo Qi.
"Finally, I must tell you that anyone who does not want to suffer an accident or a painful and tragic death should not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor."
The crowd laughed.
Yugaya did not laugh and expressed confusion as to why they were laughing.
"Now, before everyone goes to bed, let's sing the school song together!" Dumbledore exclaimed.
Yugaya noticed that the professors' smiles were a little stiff.
Dumbledore commanded the golden ribbon twisted into lines of text in the air: "Everyone chooses their favorite tune. Ready, sing! ”
So, everyone sang loudly with a lot of face.
Yugaya found it very interesting, although the scene always gave her the illusion of déjà vu.
Yes, it must be an illusion, and people sometimes feel that the scene in front of them has a familiarity that they have seen in a dream. Maybe a projection of a parallel universe?
Yugaya pulled her big baby erhu out of her backpack and leaned sideways to play the tune, the musical skills she learned in Chinatown can finally be performed in front of people today.
Lights and so on, lights and so on, etc., lights, etc.~
The joyful "Zhu Bajie Carrying a Daughter-in-law" drove the students around Yugaya to sing along with her.
Dumbledore gave him an approving look.
It seemed that everyone liked her music very much, and Yugaya happily set off small fireworks.
"Music," Dumbledore wiped his eyes, "more glamorous than anything we've done here!" It's bedtime. Let's go back to the dormitory. ”
The first-year freshman followed Percy all the way to the room.
Five with four draperies hung crimson flannel curtains, and the luggage had already arrived, and Yugaya pulled his wand from his head with his eyelids drooping and grooming weakly.
The gold on his wrist also obediently climbed down and nestled on the side of the pillow.
Yugaya buried his face in the pillow, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep.
This year's class of young wizards is slightly worse than the other students, because they just arrived at school yesterday, and today is Monday.
The Transfiguration class on Monday morning was taught by Professor McGonagall, the Head of Gryffindor. She was strict and smart, and as soon as they sat down for their first lesson, she gave them a kick-off.
Then, she turned her lectern into a pig and back again, successfully piquing the interest of her classmates.
After the young wizards had jot down a bunch of intricate notes, Professor McGonagall handed no one a match and asked them to try to turn it into a needle.
Yugaya frowned, mist shrouded in his dark vision.
Over the past few months, Yugaya has learned through observation and learning that all other spells are spells that guide the magic to draw a rune invisible to the naked eye to achieve the effect of the spell.
But Transfiguration is different, it belongs to a spell, but it is a separate course, it doesn't seem to have any runes, so how does it achieve the purpose of Transfiguration?
Carlisle saw her frowning little eyebrows and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Yugaya then told Carlisle of his confusion.
Carlisle was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Yugaya to be able to understand the spell so deeply in less than a few months. "Our wands are usually straight."
Before Carlisle could say the next word, Yugaya had already shown a look of sudden realization.
"This is to better channel the magic, and at the same time, this is also the most basic rune of Transfiguration, right?"
Carlisle looked at her with a smile, two halos in her dark blue eyes.
What is the nature of magic?
In his mother's collection, Yujaya learned that the sorcerers of the East were called sorcerers rather than alchemists.
Still that bloodline warlock.
This is also the withdrawal of some family's special abilities.
For example, the half-giant Hagrid has a high resistance to magic, Slytherin is a parseltongue, and the Dumbledore family has been close to the phoenix for generations...
This is probably one of the reasons why pure-blood families consider themselves superior.
It is very likely that the origin of wizards is derived from various magical creatures. Well, I won't go into detail about the process of getting it.
So how did those Muggle wizards come about?
This means that the children of wizards are not necessarily wizards, and there are some squibs with thin blood. These Squibs returned to the Muggle world and married Muggles and had children, and over the millennia, it was impossible to ensure that any of their descendants had accumulated enough wizarding blood, or that they had suddenly mutated.
Yugaya jotted down his guesses in his notebook and smiled at Carlisle.
"Thank you, Carlisle."
"Although you can ask Professor McGonagall for an answer even if I don't answer, how can you thank me since you said so?" Carlisle laughed.
