Chapter 180: Academy

"The new students and their parents, all get off the bus."

Tony's deliberately loud voice echoed through all the carriages.

The parents pushed open the door and walked down.

The carriage was parked in a dark, damp meadow in the shadow of the castle.

They looked up and took a closer look at the magnificent castle complex.

Hogwarts was entered from the lowest peasant strata to the upper middle class.

The threshold for selection is only based on whether you have qualifications or not.

Therefore, there are also some of these parents who have actually seen or even lived in the castle.

But no one has ever seen such a magnificent castle complex in their lives.

Perhaps, the palace is nothing more than that.

Among these people, there was actually one person who lived in the palace.

That is, Isabel standing at the end of the crowd, unnoticed by everyone, and her sister, Eugenia, standing beside her.

She was also looking at all this in distraction, "This is where you lived all these years of disappearance?" ”

"No, but it's pretty much the same." Isabel said.

"No wonder you're reluctant to come back." Eugenia muttered, "This looks much more comfortable than the palace, and there are no troubles."

Your bastard lives here, right? ”

Isabel was stunned, "What?" ”

"Arthur." Eugenia said as a matter of course, "You don't think I really believe what you say, and return my father's son, if it were my father's son, he would have hidden it from us for so long?"

The time is still so just right, if it weren't for my bright brain, I was really deceived by you, just that child's height and ability, like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child?

You are in your Chinese New Year's Eve, and you are old enough.

Speaking of which, more than ten years ago, before your mother died, it seemed that you had indeed disappeared for a whole year without news.

It's supposed to be having a baby, right? ”

With every word Eugenia said, the tic-tac-toe on Isabel's forehead was obvious, and she resisted the urge to leave Eugenia off the empty island, and squeezed out a smile.

"You're still . That's smart. ”

"Of course." Eugenia said with her head smirked, not seeming to notice Isabel's mood at the moment.

She asked curiously, "Is your wild man here too?" ”

She looked at Tony, who was standing on the stone staircase, "Is this it?" ”

After a pause, she shook her head, "This man looks too flirtatious to look like the kind of guy you would like, you should like the kind of guy who looks serious and is very intelligent." ”

She pulled out the letter of admission from her body and looked at it.

"Or is it this guy named Merlin?"

"That's Alicia's." Isabel said.

Eugenia's eyes opened in surprise, "That's why Alicia has been missing for three years?" ”

"It's not the main reason, but she's been with him for the past three years." Isabel said.

"Tsk." Eugenia let out a slight exclamation, "I really didn't expect it. Of the three of us, she was the most obedient.

Speaking of which, I thought she wasn't interested in men.

There are also many men who pursue her in the imperial capital, and although Ernst is not very good at using his brain, he is handsome and his status is not low.

And at that time, I didn't see that he had a bad brain.

But she is still a cold picture that no one can approach. ”

"It's just sullen." Isabel said.

Eugenia raised her eyebrows, she had never expected the word to appear in her sister.

"It looks like there's something interesting about her."

As they spoke, Tony stood straight at the top of the stairs, quietly watching the people present.

"First of all, welcome to Hogwarts," Tony began, "my name is Tony Stark, and you should be familiar with that name.

Because it is written on your admission letter, I am temporarily the deputy principal of this school, and I am also your alchemy and flying teacher.

The opening party is about to start, and after enjoying the dinner, if you are in a hurry, then you can take the train and leave.

The process is the same as the journey you came here, where you came from, and where you opened the tavern door.

Of course, you can also spend the night in the castle, inspect the school's accommodation, and leave the next morning.

Of course, the most important thing is. ”

Tony's words paused.

"According to Merlin's First Agreement, the wizarding world is not allowed to be exposed to the presence of the No-Maj."

No-Maj means "No Magic".

"Your children will step into this world in the future, so you, as guardians, are entitled to know.

But it doesn't stop there.

Nothing that happens here, including your children, is allowed to be told to the rest of the people who don't know magic.

This is an important agreement, we have special magic to monitor, and if you break it, you will be punished. ”

The group below nodded solemnly.

"Of course, if you don't want to follow the rules of the wizarding world, you can just leave, and we will erase your memories." Tony said.

But obviously, none of these people present should be stupid to choose to give up this opportunity.

Tony nodded, and continued.

"Before the feast begins, there is a sorting ceremony, and the sorting is a very important ceremony, because the house is your home at Hogwarts while you are in school."

"You will need to attend classes with the rest of the academy in the school, live together in the dormitory of the academy, and spend your spare time in the common room of the academy.

The school was initially divided into four faculties.

There is no distinction between high and low schools, but the focus of learning is different.

The first is the Druid House, which, as the name suggests, focuses on the teaching of the Ogan magic text of the Druid Department, suitable for students who love nature and love animals.

In addition to the basic Ogan writing class, there are also animal transformation classes, potion classes, animal communication classes, and plant classes. ”

After a pause, Tony's eyelids narrowed slightly, "It is worth mentioning that the dean and vice president of the Druid House are all great beauties. ”

The students and parents below will smile.

"Then, there's Merlin Academy, which mainly learns mainstream spell-based magic, and has the advantage of being very versatile, and can be used in both daily life and combat.

And at the same time, the special feature of Merlin Academy is that it needs to practice magic swordsmanship, which has miraculous effects in actual combat.

The people of Merlin need to believe in bravery, energy and chivalry.

The dean is concurrently served by the president, Merlin.

And then there's the college where I'm the dean, Morgan College. ”

Morgan Stark, is the name of Tony's daughter.

He looked at the people present, "I have only one admission requirement, that is, smart, our discipline is mainly based on the alchemy system, and we need to learn a lot of knowledge.

Do you want to learn how to turn stones into gold and make artificial humans?

Come to my academy if you want to. ”

"And what about the last academy?" Gay Ward asked.

"The last house," Tony's words paused, "it's called Black Academy, and the students recruited are ambitious, shrewd, value honor, judge the situation, protect oneself, and put victory first.

He also cultivates mainstream magic, featuring evil spells, poisonous spells, and curses under the black magic system.

It is important to mention here that magic is not evil, it is the person who uses it.

Every spell has a purpose, and so does the dark arts.

Compared to white magic, black magic is more lethal, which can be more advantageous in combat. ”

Black means "black", so it's perfectly fine to call this academy the Academy of Dark Arts.

"This academy only recruits egoists, but it specializes in teaching them black magic, isn't this just cultivating villains." One of them complained.

Tony turned his head to look at him, and he smiled and shrank back.

"It's not that students like this are taught black magic, it's that students like this are suitable for learning black magic." "In the world of magic, it's not just people who choose magic to use, magic also chooses people. ”

The group nodded.

"Of course." Tony continued, "Although each house has a different major, you can still take the rest of the subjects as electives.

If you are smart enough and genius enough, you can learn all the knowledge of the four academies. ”

After a pause, Tony said a little mysteriously, "And the dean of Black House is a very mysterious magician, and he is also very withdrawn, and he will not participate in the rest of the activities of the school during normal times, and will only appear when teaching."

But he was a powerful magician who was in no way inferior to Merlin. ”

In fact, Char is also concurrently serving as Char, but it is the other "half-body" that Char mentioned to Abs before.

In the future, some dirty work and black live pots will be thrown to him, so in fact, this vest can also be called "the evil of this world" or "the pot of this world".

Char is now working on some doppelganger-type magic, so that he can fish while ensuring the quality of teaching, and it should be effective soon.

"All in all, it's a wild man, a brainless man, a nerd, and a villain." Gayward muttered softly, thoughts running through his head.

Ebs apparently heard it too, twitching the corners of his mouth and complaining, "It seems that there really is nothing wrong." ”

Tony's words continued.

"Your outstanding performance during your studies will add points to your house, and any infractions will result in a point deduction, and the house with the highest score at the end of the year will receive the House Cup, which is a high honor.

I hope that no matter which house you are assigned to, you can win glory for your respective house, instead of being naughty all day long. ”

Tony's last few words looked at Gayward.

"Didn't your parents tell you to be quiet when your elders speak?"

The two of them closed their mouths instantly, keeping their heads down to avoid Tony's gaze.

Some of the students who were also talking in low voices quickly closed their mouths after seeing them being caught, and for a moment, there was silence.

Tony glanced at the crowd, nodded in satisfaction, and turned to open the door.

"Come with me."

Branches~

As the door opened, a stone staircase led to the upper floor, surrounded by blazing torches on the stone walls, and the ceiling was barely visible.

The flickering light of the fire flickered on and off, and the end of the staircase was pitch black, giving the impression of entering an old vampire castle.

Except for the sound of their footsteps, the entire staircase was silent.

They walked through the foyer, through a double door, and into a hall.

In the hall there are four rectangular tables with shiny gold plates and goblets.

At the top of the hall was another long table, which was the teacher's seat, and there was no one on it at the moment.

The most amazing thing is the starry roof above.

Although Tony has always complained that this is the starry sky top of Rolls-Royce, it is undeniable that this starry river has a great visual impact on people in this era.

People were excitedly interacting with each other, and although it was not loud, there were hundreds of people here, and the hall was a little noisy when everyone was talking.

"Quiet!" Tony shouted a reprimand, and the crowd quickly fell silent.

"Please find a seat to sit." Tony said.

The parents and students listened to Tony's words and found a place to sit down, but even so, they couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts, and continued to keep their voices down.

"Which house are you going to choose?"

"Definitely Merlin Academy, the principal and dean must be the most powerful, and he can also learn magic swordsmanship, how handsome."

"I like animals, and I hope to go to the Druid House."

"Speaking of which, what is the basis for choosing the college in this school, self-selection or teacher selection?"

The muffled voice of communication was silenced only after Tony's voice came.

"Teachers, please come in!"

As his words fell, the hall fell silent, and people subconsciously looked at the small door on the side of the high platform.

The first to come in was a dwarf, and the school required more courses, and it was obviously impossible to rely on just a few people, so Char still hired some people from the fairy country.

For example, this dwarf, named Jim Copperbeard, has long fiery red hair that is connected to a thick beard, and the beard is tied into a Viking braid.

He was a good friend of Cassifer's, and Char's main purpose in bringing him to the school was to forge swords for the students of Merlin Academy, as well as to teach the art of blacksmithing.

Then came an elf named Rowling.

Queen Tetania's bodyguard, Char was the one who showed them the way when she first went to the palace.

Char originally wanted to invite Queen Tetania, but she didn't agree, but she sent her guards anyway.

With her appearance, people's eyes widened slightly.

Long blond hair, delicate and beautiful face, and pointed and long ears, this iconic look......

It's an elf!

Legendary elves!

Seeing non-human creatures similar to humans for the first time, these children were no less excited than they had just seen Sky Island for the first time, and their chattering was very noisy.

"Ahem, be quiet!"

Tony coughed twice and yelled.

But what really quieted the hall was the appearance of another person.

A woman in a black silk dress with lace and satin trim and a pair of black suede boots with elasticated sides and a lace shawl walked calmly through the small door on one side.

It doesn't seem to be wearing makeup, but a simple red lip is outlined with lipstick, and a silky silver hair is coiled up, and some delicate and prosperous hair accessories are inserted, revealing a pair of delicate and luxurious ruby pendants, which are full of nobility.

Like a blooming Christmas rose on a snow-capped mountain, cold and noble.

Roses can't survive on snowy mountains, so they are so dreamy and incredible.

Alicia covered half of her face with a mask on the day of the feast, which Char thought had a broken-arm Venus-like beauty.

But now Char knows that it is pure, because Alicia at this moment is a little more beautiful than then.

Even if there is an elf jewel in front of them, people have no intention of appreciating the beauty of the elf at this moment, and their eyes are all focused on Alicia's body, but they don't dare to look more, for fear that they can't take their eyes off.

Her appearance took away the breath of everyone present.

Even after Isabel entered the venue, the people were unaware.

By the time people came to their senses, there were only two seats left in the teacher's seat, one of which was in the middle.

The location was exceptional, even the chairs were custom-made, with many reliefs and magical runes, like a throne.

Tony is the vice principal, so there must be one of the positions in one of them, so isn't that all that is left.

Russell remembered the name he had seen on the invitation, and the legend called "The Legend of King Arthur".

Arthur's name spread throughout Europe as early as when he led his troops to defeat the West French coalition.

Most people know about him, so many people in Europe have a copy of Arthurian legend in their hands.

You have to ask who the king of their own country is, they probably don't know.

But if you ask them who Arthur is and who Merlin is, then basically everyone can tell why.

Many people also silently took out the invitation card and looked at the names on it, and the thoughts in their eyes flowed, obviously, they also had the same thoughts as Russell.

All turned their gaze to the gate on the side of the raised platform.

In the stagnant breathing of the people, a staff appeared first in their sight
