Chapter 6
Darren nodded, understanding that Dumbledore might want him to enter Gryffindor House.
A family that had been in Gryffindor for generations, plus the fact that the protagonist would also come here, made it necessary for him to have contact early on.
If he really ended up in Gryffindor, it was very likely his bed wouldn't even change.
Darren didn't care which house he was sorted into; he could be a Saint Father in any house.
Even if it were Slytherin. ### CHAPTER 25
Darren didn't care at all and just followed Pachi forward.
They walked with Pachi all the way to the top of the Gryffindor tower.
There was a portrait of the Fat Lady here.
"Password!"
"Worthless."
"You are the same! Professor McGonagall has already told me that you are the new student. I hope you won't wander around at night and disturb my sleep!"
The Fat Lady said with a headache.
Gryffindor children always had a lot of energy.
Especially those two twins, who were practically wandering at night every day.
She really didn't know how she had survived all these years.
"Okay, I won't run around!"
Darren nodded obediently.
He lowered his head and curled his lip; how could it be possible to come to Hogwarts and not wander at night?
Wasn't night wandering a specialty of Hogwarts?
However, he had just arrived, and without an invisibility cloak or a Disillusionment Charm, running around would affect his image.
"Ah, such an obedient child, I really hope you get sorted into Gryffindor."
The Fat Lady sighed infinitely and then opened the door to the common room.
This was a place full of red and gold.
There were some sofas and tables placed around.
Warm firelight burned in the fireplace.
The windows of the common room were being rattled by the wind.
It was both warm and comfortable.
There was a staircase at each end of the common room, one leading to the boys' dorms and one to the girls'.
Pachi led Darren toward one of the staircases.
Then it pushed open the door to the first dormitory.
It was still a red and gold layout, with four-poster beds and thick scarlet blankets wrapped around the pillars.
Darren chose a bed and put all his things on it; the house-elf would help him tidy up later.
"Thank you, Pachi. I wonder if Professor Dumbledore told you what I need to do next?"
Darren asked hurriedly.
He had slept for three days, nine temporary tasks had passed, and he was anxious to trigger tasks now.
He didn't want to lose today’s tasks as well.
"Yes, Mr. Dumbledore said that you might want to go to Diagon Alley to buy some things.
You need a wand, as well as books. There are three days left until school starts, and there are still quite a few things to prepare.
Of course, except for the wand, you can order me to buy the others."
Pachi said happily, its tone full of respect and enthusiasm.
And a bit of the kindness of looking at a junior.
By intuition, Darren felt that this house-elf might be unusual.
So he smiled and said as if embarrassed:
"Thank you, Professor Dumbledore and Pachi, for the reminder. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do. Although this is my first time in this magical world,
I feel like everyone here is a good person, and everyone makes me feel incredibly happy."
After Darren finished speaking, Pachi’s smile grew even wider.
He could practically hear the sound of favorability +1, +1, and +1.
"Dumbledore and the other professors also like you very much."
Pachi praised.
It thought for a moment and then said hesitantly:
"I wonder if you have ever tried Apparition, Mr. Darren? I think it would be faster to take you to Diagon Alley that way."
"Of course, thank you, Pachi."
"You are truly the most polite child I have ever seen."
Pachi’s eyes were gentle.
It took Darren’s hand, and in an instant, they arrived at a bustling street.
"Cauldrons, cauldrons, the latest model of cauldrons!"
"Nimbus series brooms, your good helper for flying."
"New pets, can be taken to Hogwarts."
"Mom, I want a quill..."
The street was extremely lively, and Darren looked at the surrounding scene with amazement.
Not to mention, wizarding things just looked magical.
"How could a Muggle come here? Truly bad luck!"
"If you said that in the Muggle world, you might be caught by Muggles as a lab rat!"
Just as Darren was sighing, he heard two voices ring out abruptly.
He turned his head and saw a wizard and an ordinary person confronting each other.
Looking at that wizard, with his worn-out robes, extremely tattered wizard hat, and the umbrella he used as a cane, he looked exactly like some down-and-out aristocrat.
Darren didn't pay much attention.
Bickerings like this usually didn't lead to a fight.
It was just a down-and-out aristocrat jealous that an ordinary person was dressed better than him, and feeling envious.
Based on his experience from his previous life, they might not even end up arguing.
[Ding, the system has detected an opportunity for Saint Father behavior. Now issuing a temporary task: stand in front of that ordinary person, face the down-and-out wizard, and say in a condemnatory tone:
"Sir, I do not allow you to bully ordinary people. You can vent your dissatisfaction on me. Even if they are ordinary people, they are not existence that you can bully at will!"]
[Ding, after completing the task, you will obtain the title 'Unlosable Wand'. After wearing the halo, your wand will never be lost. Do you accept the task?]
[Accept!]
Although he felt this title was worse than the Phoenix Pet Egg and others, it was still a reward.
And it was just a matter of speaking and acting.
Darren took a deep breath.
The face that had just been watching the fun instantly became angry.
He blocked the ordinary person in two or three steps, gathered his courage, and said in a fearful but righteous and condemnatory tone:
"Sir, how can you bully ordinary people? What’s wrong with Muggles? Muggles are also people. I don't believe you don't have a Muggle in your ancestry!
You can vent your dissatisfaction on me. I just want to tell you that even if they are ordinary people, they are not existence that you can bully at will!"
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the title: Unlosable Wand.]
As the system’s mechanical voice fell, not far from the ordinary man, a little girl with messy hair looked at Darren with increasingly gentle eyes.
Heavens, is there such a kind little wizard in the magical world?
