Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

Chapter 57 Arrival and Sorting (n in 1 big chapter)



In every sense of the word, Neville is as topical as Harry, but he just doesn't know it.

Just as Harry still hadn't learned what his title as savior meant, he hadn't yet received a passionate beating from Lockhart.

The child born in July will end the Dark Lord, and only one of the two will survive.

Neville and Harry were both born in July, but Voldemort chose half-blood Harry instead of pure-blood Neville, and avoided the main story being called Neville Longbottom.

But Neville is still a well-known figure in the pure-blood circle.

His parents, his stupidity.

Neville's parents were heroes, Aurors, and staunch opponents of Voldemort.

Harry may not know, as he knows too little about the wizarding world. Hermione may know, but she may not have matched the name Neville Longbottom with the one she read in the book.

But Ciel must have known it, but he didn't mention it.

Parents are a pair of heroes, which is something to be proud of, but if the parents are still living in the hospital, mentioning this matter may not be a good feeling for the person involved.

Neville probably didn't want the compliment.

Especially for people you've just met.

This was the most basic social etiquette, even among children, so Ciel kept his mouth shut.

Harry's situation is similar. His parents' sacrifice brought about his survival. Is this really something that Harry wants others to mention again and again?

Of course Neville knew this. Although he was introverted, he was well-educated and Mrs. Longbottom educated him well.

But the name of the savior was so big that he couldn't help it for a while.

Harry looked confused, wondering why Neville reacted so strongly to his name.

After receiving the admission notice and buying a lot of books from Diagon Alley, Hermione had learned about Harry, the savior, from various books.

But Harry himself wasn't quite sure yet.

It wasn't that he wasn't willing to study, but that after buying his books from Diagon Alley, Fenon locked them up and didn't return them to him until before school started.

He couldn't understand Neville's shock.

"You are...Harry Potter"

Harry nodded.

"The Boy Who Lived"

Neville took a breath, and his expression looked extremely shocked. He even leaned back and pressed himself firmly against the wall of the carriage, as if if the wall hadn't been supporting him, he would have died the next moment. Same as sliding under the table.

Harry looked at the two Charles for help.

He remembered that Ciel once said that he was the savior and could even enjoy star-like treatment in the magical world, but now it seemed that he was not the star-like treatment.

Because Neville's expression looked like he had seen some kind of demon king instead of the savior of the wizarding world, maybe Ciel could explain it to him.

What can Ciel say? Tell Harry that the person in front of you is a special case. He is a real protagonist who is timid in the early stage and turns into a sword master in the later stage. Once you die, he will directly take over.

So you don't need to worry about him, most people are still normal, just like the ones you met in Diagon Alley.

They will scream when they see you, they will become helpless, and they will spontaneously form a support group for you. You even have a red-haired little fan girl, who will be a big fan girl in the future, who can help you in every sense. The kind that swipes votes to hit the rankings.

Although she is not blond, it doesn't matter, red hair is more charming, isn't it?

Of course Ciel couldn't say that, so the question of explanation was left to Hermione.

"bang"

And Hermione did not disappoint Ciel.

She slammed a heavy and huge book onto the table, shaking the table so hard that Charles, who was watching the excitement with his hands on his face, almost fell off the table. Then she quickly rummaged through the middle of the book. part.

"You are the Boy-Who-Lived, Harry, you are the savior of the wizarding world."

Charles glanced at the thick book, Modern History of Magic, with an incredulous look, and couldn't imagine why Hermione would carry such a thing with her.

But when I think about the entire library at home in the future, it's not surprising that every time he goes to the New World for a "business trip", Hermione will be very happy as long as he brings books that she hasn't read.

"I know"

Harry's expression was still confused, "Ciel said this, and I just want to know what the savior is."

"Wait, you don't know"

Next to him, Neville finally got up from his chair.

Hermione pressed the book and sighed heavily. Looking at the unlearned savior classmates in front of her, she rolled her eyes and began to tell the story for the stupid boys.

. . .

"woo"

During Hermione's narration, the Hogwarts Express had started moving unconsciously, and Charles silently put away the books he had pinned down. There was no need to lock the door now.

As the train started to move, the new little wizards almost all found their own compartments and opened the doors, because someone might come to visit them soon.

After all, there is the famous Potter here.

Charles had no psychological burden for interrupting Harry and Ron's meeting. Harry estimated 100% that he would go to Gryffindor, which was designated by Dumbledore for him. In that case, Ron would be his roommate. The two of them would get to know each other anyway.

If Harry really didn't go to Gryffindor, even if he met Ron in the car, it would be of no use. The distance between the houses was still quite large.

He was more concerned about himself and where he would go.

If it's in a game, then it doesn't matter where you go. Only novices who are playing for the first time need to read the guide. After all, playing games is about doing whatever you want and doing whatever makes you happy, but here. .

With Lao Deng dominating the scene, you still need to pay some attention.

Although there is no permanent control magic like other gods here, there are many similar magics. As the greatest white wizard in the world, if Dumbledore goes too far, he may have some backup plans.

"knocking"

While Hermione was giving extra lessons to the boys and Charles was thinking about his own affairs, there was a sudden knock on the door of the carriage where several people were sitting.

Ciel opened the car door and saw three little wizards in wizard robes standing outside.

Draco Malfoy, and his two minions.

"I heard... the famous Harry Potter is in this carriage."

His eyes ignored Ciel standing in front of him and swept around the carriage without any scruples.

With Charles's position, he could just block Hermione from behind, so the only ones who needed to face Draco's scrutiny were Harry and Neville.

Of course Neville knew Draco. The pure-blood circle was so big that no one knew anyone. Facing Draco, Neville subconsciously shrank back again.

Draco also knew about Neville. If it was normal, he might have said a few words of ridicule, but now all he could think about was Harry, the Boy-Who-Lived, the famous savior.

"Potter."

Draco's eyes were locked on Harry, and a long tone came out of his thin and bloodless lips.

"I still have a seat in my carriage. Maybe you will be willing to come over."

Harry also remembered the blond boy he met at Madam Malkin's Robe Shop. Although he said bad things about Hagrid, and his bad attitude reminded Harry of Dudley, he still maintained basic courtesy.

"Uh, no, thanks, but I'd rather be with my friends."

"friend"

Harry's implicit rejection suddenly caused a faint blush to appear on Draco's pale face.

"Are you talking about this stupid Longbottom?"

His tone became harsh.

"And his stupid pet."

Draco noticed Leif on the table.

Facing Draco's cold ridicule, Neville wished he could hide himself under the table.

But it also made Harry angry.

"No, Na..."

Ciel suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two that was getting increasingly out of control.

"You have golden hair, are you a Malfoy?"

"I saw you in the notes my father took."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Charles Eddie Mo."

But Draco still ignored Ciel, Eddie Mo, a surname he had never heard of. If he was not a pure blood, his father's notes meant that he was a half-blood.

Draco's behavior completely angered Harry.

"I don't think you have to control what kind of friends I choose."

"Now, please leave this compartment."

"very good"

Draco almost squeezed out two words through his teeth.

He glanced at Neville who was shivering.

"Stupid Longbottom."

"A half-breed."

He glanced at Ciel again, and coincidentally, Hermione poked her little head out from behind Ciel at this time, and Draco realized that it was another unfamiliar face, not a pure-blood girl.

"Or two."

He glared at Harry.

"Sooner or later you'll know what kind of friends you need, Potter."

After saying that, he glared hatefully again, then turned around and left with his two followers.

Charles closed the car door and sat back as if nothing had happened.

But the other little ones would not be so nonchalant, especially Hermione. Although she did not face Draco directly, her annoying tone also made her very angry.

"I can't believe there are such terrible people"

she said angrily.

"It's like a replica of Dudley"

"Not entirely. At least he's handsomer than Dudley, and he's a wizard."

Hermione angrily slapped Charles on the arm.

Then it occurred to her again.

"You just said Malfoy was his last name."

"Yes, his name is Draco Malfoy, I met him in Diagon Alley."

It was Harry who answered.

"I, I have also heard about Malfoy. Their family are all dark wizards, very, very evil dark wizards."

Neville also said tremblingly.

Hermione was thoughtful, because she felt like she had seen this name in some book.

When the three little guys were discussing, Ciel was once again in a daze. He was not surprised by Draco's arrival.

There are more wizards in this world than in the original work. The biggest change is the change in the pure-blood circle. Although pure-blood claims are more like self-deception, it is undeniable that they do control most of the magical world.

The increase in their number directly adds a lot of vitality to Slytherin. Don't think that all purebloods look so stupid and do nothing all day long.

They were well-informed, and it was normal for them to be able to detect Harry's appearance and even lock down which compartment he was in.

Charles interrupted the conversation between Draco and Harry casually, saying it casually, just to add a little impression to the supporting actor's mind.

You never know when it will come in handy.

A good man has three gangs. Of course Ciel knows this truth. This is not a game. Everything cannot be done according to his personality. Even if he is confident that he will become the most powerful wizard in the future, if there are more connections, there will always be more. convenient.

The network of relationships is also a powerful one.

He can't go to the Ministry of Magic to do something, and he has to beat everyone first before talking about it. If there is someone, it's easy to talk about it. It's a special matter.

Although it was possible to fight, Ciel still found it troublesome.

The rest of the journey was much calmer. Probably because of what Draco said to Slytherin, no purebloods came over to show their goodwill. The Weasley twins visited halfway and found that the carriage was already full. We did some stand-up comedy, got to know each other and left.

However, the appearance of the Weasley twins also made the little guys feel better again. The wizarding world is not all bad people.

Soon, the train arrived at the station.

"Now, gentlemen, it's time for us to be the gentlemen we are."

"what"

"Please let the carriage out for the lady to change her clothes."

. . .

Discovery: Hogwarts: Experience 10

"Hagrid"

As the train stopped, a large number of young wizards poured down, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. Ciel grabbed Hermione and helped her block most of the collision, so that she would not be squeezed.

Hagrid's arrival caused a commotion in the scene, but Harry greeted him excitedly.

Unfortunately, there were too many little wizards, and Hagrid couldn't catch up with him for the time being, so he could only take the little wizards and leave here first.

Stumbling to the Black Lake, the four of them were naturally in the same boat. During this period, they met Draco again, but he just snorted and said nothing.

With their experience in Wonderland, Harry and Hermione did not find this journey very difficult. On the contrary, Neville began to become more and more nervous. He kept thinking that if he was not selected by any college, what if he was selected? Drop out of school on the spot, what should I do?

This also made Harry and Hermione nervous.

After all, there was a test for admission, and Hermione had gone through all the books but couldn't find what this so-called test was.

So much so that Hagrid took them to the front of the castle. While waiting for Professor McGonagall, Hermione couldn't help but ask Ciel in a low voice.

"Char, you must know what the entrance test is."

Harry and Neville also looked over, as well as several other young wizards nearby.

"I know something about it. It doesn't seem to be very difficult. No one will be dropped out of school."

"Believe me."

It doesn't matter if some secrets are revealed in advance, but it's not interesting either. Ciel just needs to make a few little guys relax.

Sure enough, with Ciel's protection, Hermione and Harry's nervousness calmed down a bit. However, the other little wizards and Neville didn't know why they trusted Ciel so much, and they were still nervous.

Soon, Professor McGonagall appeared.

"She is Professor McGonagall."

Hermione whispered to Ciel.

Ciel nodded.

Professor McGonagall briefly introduced Hogwarts and the four houses before bringing them into the auditorium. While waiting, the discussion about the entrance test became even more intense.

It wasn't until the ghosts appeared that the little wizards poured cold water on them again.

Soon, Professor McGonagall returned.

"Come with me."

she said to the little wizards.

Whispering, a group of little wizards, like little ducks that could fall into the cracks of the ground at any time, cautiously followed Professor McGonagall through the corridors and into the hall.

The surroundings suddenly became brighter, and Ciel's ears even automatically brought the BGM that he had listened to in the game for countless years.

The senior students from the fourth college had already sat down. They were looking at the freshmen at the long table. Ciel seemed to vaguely hear Potter's name. It was probably the savior's admission, which also made them very curious.

Hermione looked up at the ceiling of the auditorium, thought about it, and finally couldn't help it.

This long speech made a little wizard next to her look sideways, and Ciel recognized him as Ron.

Then, the Sorting Hat sang the song of the four houses.

"..."

Ciel automatically blocked out these lyrics and began to pay attention to the faces of the senior students. He compared them one by one with the memories he reviewed in the pensieve not long ago, and there was almost no difference.

Soon, the singing ended.

"When I call your name, come forward and I will put the sorting hat on your head and assign the house."

McGonagall, who was standing next to the Sorting Hat, put her hands in her sleeves and said with a serious expression.

"Hannah Abbott."

The iron-clad Hannah, the flowing Hufflepuff.

"Hufflepuff"

The Sorting Hat indeed shouted loudly.

By now, almost all the little wizards didn't know that this was the entrance test, but even so, their nervousness still did not subside at all.

After all, this is in full view of the public, and. .

"No Slytherin, no Slytherin."

"No Gryffindor, no Gryffindor."

"No Hufflepuff, no Hufflepuff."

Ciel couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He heard such whispers from more than one person. The concept of the academy's struggle was really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Soon, the Sorting Hat called Hermione's name.

The little girl trotted forward and watched nervously as Professor McGonagall placed the Sorting Hat on her head.

After waiting for a moment, the Sorting Hat called out the name of the house.

"Gryffindor"

Ciel closed his eyes slightly and opened them again.

Does Journey to Wonderland have any impact on the main plot? It definitely does.

In the game, Hermione can even be tricked directly into other colleges, but so far, it seems that everything has not deviated too much.

After a few more names passed, it was Harry's turn.

"Harry Potter"

McGonagall said.

This name caused a burst of murmurs in the auditorium, as if the calm sea suddenly stirred up a wave. Ron, who was standing next to Harry, immediately widened his eyes and looked like he had swallowed a chocolate frog alive.

"He is Harry Potter"

"The Boy Who Lived."

"Look at that scar"

With the popular science that Hermione and Ciel had drawn, Harry knew a little more than in the original book. In addition, he had also seen big scenes in Wonderland. Although he felt a little stressed, he still walked forward calmly.

His eyes swept over the professors uncomfortably, because he felt as if someone was always staring at him fiercely.

Professor McGonagall placed the Sorting Hat on Harry's head, and almost as soon as it touched his head, even before Professor McGonagall's hand was completely lowered, the Sorting Hat couldn't wait to shout.

"Gryffindor"

"You're an absolute Gryffindor, kid."

Harry heard the Sorting Hat whisper to him.

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment, Harry was also stunned for a moment, even the four houses and professors, and even Dumbledore were slightly startled.

Then, it was the Gryffindor students who reacted first.

"We have Harry Potter"

Gryffindor was a group of very energetic guys, and they immediately started to make a lot of noise. The Weasley twins even slapped the table excitedly.

"We have Potter"

"We have Potter"

The response from other houses was slower, but no matter what, soon, the applause came together and resounded throughout the auditorium, except for the Slytherin table, which was a little weak.

Sure enough, this is the influence of Wonderland.

In the original book, the Sorting Hat was worn on Harry's head for a long time because he had the characteristics of many houses, including Slytherin.

But Wonderland inspired Harry's courage. Apart from Dudley and Harry, there were not many people who dared to charge towards God.

According to the settings in the game, the Sorting Hat can use Legilimency. It has a special magic that can determine the characteristics of the little wizard. However, its Legilimency is not strong and can only read surface memories. If the little wizard Resistance can directly make it impossible to read the memory of resistance.

It's completely different from real Legilimency, which can force you to read other people's memories.

Harry's appearance pushed the sorting to the top. It wasn't until every familiar name was passed over and the freshmen were almost sorted that the auditorium calmed down again.

At this time, Professor McGonagall finally called Ciel's name.

"Ciel Eddie Mo."

Ciel walked forward calmly, just like he had done countless times in the game.

Skills used: Occlumency

Occlumency began to operate, and the false memories that had been prepared surfaced, making him no different from other half-blood little wizards who were exposed.

"Well, I can feel something special about you, but I can't feel it. My rich experience tells me that this old man has Occlumency, right?"

Charles remained silent.

"It seems like a little guy who doesn't like to talk."

The Sorting Hat seemed to twist on Ciel's head.

"You have a lot of potential in the academy, well, it's a bit difficult to handle."

The Sorting Hat continued.

"I can go to Hufflepuff"

"of course can."

"That Gryffindor"

"It's fine."

"Ravenclaw"

"Dang... Well, it doesn't seem possible."

"what"

Ciel thought that he could go to the four academies just like in the game. Well, now it seems that this place is different from the one in the game.

But it's different. What does it mean that he can't go to Ravenclaw? It's saying that he is a fool.

"You're calling me a fool"

Ciel couldn't help but ask.

"I never said that."

The Sorting Hat refused to admit it.

"Can.."

But before Ciel could continue, the Sorting Hat suddenly seemed to have discovered something.

"Oh, look what I saw. You have a lot of potential in the academy, but there is one more thing, and the most important point, one that you may not even realize, and that even I almost ignored..."

"I know where you're going, and it's the best place for you."

The Sorting Hat paused and shouted.

"Slytherin"

At the Gryffindor table, Hermione and Harry opened their mouths in surprise.

. . .

Hermione knew about Slytherin and heard that it was a pure-blood academy with many dark wizards. She was not sure about the latter, but was certain about the former.

She knew the definition of pure blood, and Ciel was obviously a mixed blood. As he himself had said, the surname Eddie Mo was not in any pure blood clan records.

Harry also knew about Slytherin because Hermione gave him science knowledge in the car. Without Ron's subjective opinion, he didn't have much prejudice against Slytherin, but he didn't have a good impression of it either. After all, that's where Voldemort came from, and it was also there. There have indeed been many dark wizards.

But Ciel was his friend after all. The first time Ciel was assigned to Slytherin, Harry did not question whether Ciel was a dark wizard, but worried that he would be bullied there.

because. .Dark wizards abound there.

. . .

You join Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: gain profession: Wizard

Ciel was not surprised by the Sorting Hat's decision, because it was also within his plan, and he also went to Slytherin in the game.

Don't say that Slytherin is an absolute pure-blood college, because there are no absolute pure-bloods now, and both Voldemort and Snape are clearly mixed-bloods.

It can only be said that there are relatively few mixed-race people here.

Shire, Shire starts as a hemp wizard, but just like there is no absolute pure blood, there is no absolute hemp seed. Going back to the ancestors, any wizard has more or less the blood of a wizard or the blood of a magical creature. .

Everyone is the same.

Charles walked off the stage calmly. He did not dare to look at the reactions of the professors, especially Snape and Dumbledore, the two masters of Legilimency. Their gazes were the easiest to activate Legilimency.

One of them is the dean of Slytherin, and the other is the principal. They must know who the purebloods are in the wizarding world. The surname Eddie Mo is either a pureblood, or a mixed blood.

It's rare for a half-blood to enter Slytherin.

Now was the time when the two of them paid the most attention to Ciel, and Ciel knew it very well.

He came to the Slytherin table calmly.

The Slytherin snakes on the long table had already applauded calmly, with Slytherin's usual style, elegant and artificial, plain and not enthusiastic.

But in fact, they were secretly exchanging glances.

"Eddie Mo"

"A surname I've never heard of."

"Not a pureblood."

"That's half-blood."

They quickly reached a consensus. The two freshmen sitting next to Ciel and the old students nearby immediately smiled at Ciel with standard aristocratic restraint.

Faced with their innocent smiles, Charles also broke his calmness. He also smiled, as if he was flattered, and responded to the people around him.

Both parties smiled brightly and were friendly.

. .This is really a sincere college. The seniors seem to be good people.

. .This is really a pure mixed race. It will be very interesting in the future.
