Magic Journey from Hogwarts
Chapter 18 After all, I entered the Snake Court
"Aaron Gaius." Professor McGonagall read out Aaron's full name.
"Haha! It's finally your turn, little guy." The Sorting Hat let out a triumphant laugh.
Aaron spread his hands, "To be honest, I don't really want to be the last one. After all, the people in front are too good, and the pressure on the people behind will always be great."
As he spoke, he hugged Abe who had climbed to the top of his head without knowing when, and walked up the steps.
"Professor McGonagall, can I ask you one last question?"
"Okay, just ask!"
"If I cast a Cleansing Charm on this hat, it won't avenge itself in sorting!"
Professor McGonagall looked down at the sorting hat in his hand, and hesitated, "Probably not!"
"No." The Sorting Hat said proudly, "I used to be Godric Gryffindor's wizard hat, and I was blessed by the other three giants who founded Hogwarts. With the wisdom of the founder of Hogwarts, it is impossible to do such a shameless thing."
"Really? Then I'm relieved." Aaron nodded in satisfaction, and then took out a black wand.
The Sorting Hat began to tremble, and then it recalled the meaning of the first half of Aaron's sentence, "What do you want to do? I warn you, don't mess around!
I am the sorting hat, and my seniority may be much older than you think. "
"No matter how old you are, it's just a hat. It's not something to show off." Aaron said, then waved his wand, "Clean it up."
"No!" The Sorting Hat let out a long cry, and then a puff of white smoke came out, and all the dust on it was bounced off. Although the appearance was still rotten, it was at least a hundred times cleaner than before.
"How dare you?" The Sorting Hat showed a fierce expression, but it seemed stern.
"Why didn't I dare? You said that you wouldn't avenge yourself in public." Yaren explained as he should, and then sat down on the stool calmly.
This wave of manipulation by Aaron made all the students speechless in shock, after all, no one dared to do this before him.
Some of the professors at the guest chair looked at Aaron in different ways, either admiring, frowning, or dumbfounding, but most of them were interested.
"Professor McGonagall, you can start." Aaron said lightly.
"Oh!" Professor McGonagall froze for a moment, then carefully placed the Sorting Hat on Aaron's head.
"Huh?" After the sorting hat was put on Aaron's head, his expression immediately became extremely astonished, "How is it possible? I thought you were just grandstanding, but I didn't expect you to be more difficult than the one just now.
Not lacking in courage, with unparalleled courage, tough character, clever mind, and a strong thirst for knowledge hidden in his heart.
The most important thing is that you have extremely high talent and potential. I have seen countless students in the past thousand years. Among them, there are no more than ten of them who are at the same level as you, but they have only reached that line, and there has never been a single one. People have such powerful magic at the age of school, are you really only 11 years old? "
"Isn't this nonsense?" Aaron said speechlessly, "And don't you think you've said too much?
Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. After all, the wizarding world is much bigger than Hogwarts.
So you haven't made up your mind yet? "
"No, you have to give me some time to think about it!
You are so comprehensive, every college is especially suitable for you, what is your purpose of coming to school, or what do you desire most? "
"Is it necessary to ask so clearly?" Aaron said uncomfortably, he could clearly feel that the broken hat was spying on his thoughts all the time, but he was destined not to see any secrets in front of his perfect level of Occlumency.
"Of course there is." The Sorting Hat said, "Some people desire knowledge, some people desire power, some people desire resources, some people desire..."
"I don't care what you said. What I long for is true friendship."
"Friendship? That's a rarity.
Since it's friendship... Slytherin. "The Sorting Hat shouted loudly.
After the results came out, the Slytherin students applauded loudly, while the Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw students all sighed.
They also heard the evaluation of the Sorting Hat just now, and the Snake Academy will get a very good student.
"Sure enough." Aaron murmured, then picked up Abe and walked to the long table in Slytherin, while Professor McGonagall also put away the freshman list and the sorting hat and walked to his seat.
Draco greeted him friendly with two followers, and the prefect also welcomed him warmly.
Aaron even saw Professor Snape at the guest table, the dean of Slytherin nodding slightly at him, which made him a little flattered.
"Aaron, I knew you would be assigned to Slytherin, and only Slytherin is worthy of a genius like you.
Didn't you notice that Weasley's face became particularly ugly just now. " Draco said happily.
"Hey! That's too serious." Aaron waved his hand embarrassingly, "I never thought I was a genius.
As for Weasley's face, that's none of my business. "
Ding!Ding!Ding!
Professor McGonagall tapped the cup in front of her with a golden spoon, "Please pay attention."
Dumbledore stood up from the main seat. He raised his hands and looked at the students below with a smile on his face. "Now, the banquet begins."
As the voice fell, the four long tables were filled with all kinds of food in an instant. In front of Aaron alone, there were beef, lamb chops, pork chops, potatoes, pudding, pea sprouts, carrots, corn, etc. It can be said that Fully catered for all picky eaters.
Abe jumped directly in front of Aaron, pointing at the chicken legs on the plate with his small paws, and looked at Aaron with longing eyes on the other hand.
"Um... Got it." Aaron smiled, and put the food it wanted to eat in front of it.
At this time, a gray and white ghost came out from under the table and stopped right next to Draco, opposite Aaron.
This stunned Draco, dropping his fork onto the plate.
"Don't worry, he's Baron the Bloody, the ghost of our Slytherin house." An old student said.
That is to say, ghosts have no lethality to living people, and there are ghosts floating everywhere in the hall.
But the one next to Draco is really scary, haggard, with silver blood spots all over his robe, he is no different from a perverted murderer.
Sitting across from him to eat, Aaron expressed that he was very stressed. As for Draco Malfoy, who was sitting next to him, Aaron expressed deep sympathy.
After more than half an hour of dining time, the food and tableware on the table disappeared in an instant, and the table became clean again.
Satisfied, Aaron sat on the chair, feeling that the pet in his arms had weighed two or three catties.
"Okay, it's time for bedtime. Before that, let's do one last activity and sing the school song." Dumbledore said excitedly, as if this was the most important part of the whole sorting ceremony.
"Hogwarts still has a school song?" Aaron looked at a freshman beside him in surprise, but he also looked blank, apparently knowing nothing.
Then he set his sights on a senior, and saw the bitterness and hatred on his face, and Aaron could read the suffering and embarrassment from the senior's face.
Dumbledore flicked his wand lightly, and a golden ribbon floated out of it. On the ribbon were lines of text, namely the lyrics:
Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts,
Please teach us knowledge,
Whether we are bald old men,
Or the kid who broke his knee...
"Everyone chooses their favorite tune." Dumbledore said approachably, "Ready to sing..."
The next moment, an extremely noisy voice sounded in the lobby. The combination of chaotic tones and some unscrupulous lyrics was like a magic voice.
Aaron had the urge to cover his ears, but it was obviously inappropriate in public.
In desperation, Aaron hugged Abe to the top of his head. Its two front paws covered his ears under the hat openly, while its two hind paws pressed Aaron's ears.
Secret and natural, you can't really find it if you don't look carefully.
"Haha! It's finally your turn, little guy." The Sorting Hat let out a triumphant laugh.
Aaron spread his hands, "To be honest, I don't really want to be the last one. After all, the people in front are too good, and the pressure on the people behind will always be great."
