Chapter 13: Sorting Ceremony

"Welcome to Hogwarts,"

Professor Marcus Maige said,

"The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you go to the Great Hall to take your seats, you must first determine which house you belong to.

Sorting is a very important ceremony, because during your time at school, the house is like your home at Hogwarts......"

Professor Marcus Maige explained the four houses and the House Cup. When she left, she also reminded the little wizards:

"In a few minutes, the sorting ceremony will be held in front of all the teachers and students.

I suggest you tidy yourselves up and be spirited while waiting."

Her gaze stayed on Sien for a moment, and that severity disappeared for an instant.

It really suits him......

"Sorting ceremony, heavens, I heard you have to fight a dragon!"

A black-haired little wizard shared with his partner beside him, trembling a little.

"Ah?! We, fight a dragon?!"

The blonde little witch beside him looked like she was about to cry,

"Don't! I only learned Lumos."

These words quickly caused a commotion among the little wizards.

"Dragon?! Adult or underage?!"

"Anthony, why are you so rigorous at this time! If you ask me, even a baby dragon can spray us to death in one breath!"

"Finished!"

The little wizards naturally accepted such rumors. It seemed that their families behind them had laid a lot of groundwork for this.

Just amidst a sigh,

Sien was still reading "Magical Theory" seriously.

This was the only book he carried with him.

Although magic doesn't make sense and doesn't follow rules like conservation of matter,

it has existed for too long. Even if wizards are all stupid pigs, they should have summarized some laws.

Among the books that cost 2 Jin Jialong, the one Sien was most impressed by was this book.

Those magical branches, whether it's Charms, Transfiguration, or Potions,

can all find some explanations in this book.

Sien thinks this might be the most underestimated book on the first-year book list.

At this moment, he is reading it for the third time. Every time, he has different gains.

【Magic power,

is something the wizard himself carries.

The strength of magic power depends on the wizard's emotions or spiritual power,

but most wizards cannot autonomously control magic power, so they need the guidance of spells and wands,

to make magic power consciously manipulated to achieve the purpose】

Sien can understand this.

Harry is a good example.

Before learning magic, he could move himself from flat ground to the chimney, and could make glass disappear,

but firstly, this could only be done when emotions were excited, and secondly, he didn't know how to manipulate magic power.

But with a wand and mastering spells,

wizards can master their own magic power to a great extent.

After two months of exploration, Sien somewhat recognized a point of view from his previous life,

that is, wizards in Harry Potter are actually bloodline wizards, and their power originates from some kind of bloodline that can cast magic.

Sien continued to look down:

【A fact of learning magic is to master as many spells as possible, including many ancient magics. The more magic you know, the more things you can do;

Another fact is that after mastering a spell, you must practice it continuously. Proficient casting and unfamiliar casting are obviously very different;

However, when you master a magic, if you want to truly exert its greatest power, you also need sufficient spiritual power】

What a concise description.

No wonder the author Adalbert Waffling dared to call his book "Magical Theory."

Listening to the name, one knows that the status of this book is about the same as "Theoretical Mathematics" and "Basic Physics" in his previous life.

You know, those books deprived Sien of a lot of happiness, like the Dementors of the magical world.

Read it once, happiness goodbye.

"I somewhat believe you."

Hermione's face was a bit pale. The topics discussed by those little wizards were too scary,

and their echoing each other seemed extremely real,

making Hermione, who was new to the Wizarding World, feel uneasy.

Looking at Sien beside her again, he seemed not to hear it and was still reading seriously.

"Should we ask Sien? He doesn't seem afraid at all."

Jia Siting, who was shivering, remembered the equestrian test that Eton College once had.

Maybe wizards have to defeat dragons?

Is this a glorious tradition?

Wizard,

How scary.

"Sien, sorry to bother you, but......"

Before Jia Siting could finish his plea for help, the Great Hall door opened with a bang.

The sorting ceremony began.

Sien also withdrew from magical theory,

while the Iron Hat King was still on the throne, Sien began to think about the target house.

After all, the Sorting Hat seemed to listen to the wishes of the little wizards.

Gryffindor?

No, no.

His primary task is to get a scholarship.

If all subjects are excellent, the target characters are probably Hermione and Percy.

And in the original work, they were boycotted within Gryffindor.

Hermione only performed well in class in the first year, and pointed out where other classmates were doing wrong, so she was boycotted and went to the bathroom to cry.

Most of Gryffindor has the idea of "no matter what my level is, I cannot be inferior to others."

They are brave adventurers, but they always hurt others.

Just like during the Chamber of Secrets, they were incited by rumors to isolate and exclude Harry.

Speaking of Slytherin,

Sien has no intention of playing tricks. With that time, he could have livered the Levitation Spell to the level of a Silent Spell.

The remaining Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff seem good.

But Sien prefers Hufflepuff.

Can you get free food by walking two steps out of the dormitory?

Super cool.

Hufflepuff, harmonious, never punches inward, but acts consistently outward.

Even JK Rowling said that she hopes all children are Hufflepuffs.

Think about it, a warm fireplace, a kitchen at the door, and a dean who will scold you if you go out and make mistakes or fight, but still secretly send you a box of coconut ice cream.

Sien just wanted to shout:

We come from the forest, we have great love in our hearts, we are loyal to nature, we are upright and loyal, we are tough and honest, we are not afraid of danger,

——We are Hufflepuff!

"Harry Potter!"

In the center of the Great Hall,

As soon as Professor Marcus Maige said this, the noisy atmosphere was suppressed a lot.

Sien heard the little wizards around him muttering words like "It's him," "It's really him," and "Harry Potter."

Harry ran over and put on the wrinkled Sorting Hat. The whole audience fell silent, waiting for the result.

This wait was four or five minutes.

Sien's Sorting Hat song in his heart had already been sung for the second time.

"Gryffindor!"

Finally, the result appeared.

The Gryffindors were crazy with joy.

"Potter!"

"We have Potter!"

Sien could hear this voice from far away.

Soon——

"Sien Green!" ===== CHAPTER 14 =====
