Chapter 333 School Dinner

(In the dormitory, facing the surprised eyes of Crabbe and Goyle, Draco blushed and quickly buried himself in the pillow, but his red ears and the whimpering sound like a little animal still exposed his shyness and frustration.)
(Dumbledore looked up at the clouds reflected on the enchanted ceiling, as if he saw another face through it, "What is not obtained in youth will haunt you for the rest of your life.")
Harry came back to his senses and laughed dryly. He suddenly felt that this was a bit too 'Albus Dumbledore'.

The sudden wave of information and the small red dot that appeared in the lower right corner of his retina made Harry breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's almost time for the back-to-school dinner."

"Yeah." Draco Malfoy, whose abnormalities had disappeared, nodded.

He didn't think there was anything wrong. The joy that burst out from his heart had obscured all his rationality, and the only things left in his mind were "becoming friends with Harry Potter".

(After hearing the words "back-to-school dinner", Ron finally regained some of his sanity, "What would people in the interstellar age eat?")
(In the hall, apart from some Hufflepuffs and Ron, other audiences were more concerned about how many familiar faces they would see in the hall.)
("Almorik Sawbridge, the wizard who defeated the largest river troll ever to live on the River Wye!")
("Summon the invincible Andros, a giant-sized guardian deity!")
("Blowing up Archibald Alderton of Little Dropington, Hampshire, while magically combining a birthday cake!")
("Betty Bott, the inventor of Betty Every Flavour Beans!")
("The one who can turn people into pigs forever! Cool! Be sure to ask her what her real name is!")
(.)

("Alberic Groning! The genius who invented the dung egg!" Fred and George looked at this student who was bald at a young age as if he were an idol. If he could inherit the talent of being the first prank prop, being bald was nothing. They were already used to seeing the baldness of their father, Arthur Weasley.)
After seeing so many historical celebrities, Harry also went from being easily shocked to being calm.

After all, he himself is the greatest historical figure besides Badger Granger.

He is now history itself.

Sitting at the Gryffindor table, Harry looked up at the head guest seat.

It was still empty.

(Some viewers were a little disappointed. What they wanted to know most was who the current professors at Hogwarts University of Witchcraft and Wizardry were and whether there were any familiar faces.)
"We are still too early." Harry turned to Draco and said, "By the way, I just remembered that you have not answered a question for me. How come the Slug Club still exists?"

Draco pouted to the side.

Harry looked over and saw a familiar-looking face appear before him. "Horace Slughorn?"

"Yes, he is a descendant of the Slughorn family's side branch. While inheriting the name, he also inherited Horace Slughorn's ability to identify people. So after Horace Slughorn's death, the Slug Club, which gradually faded into history, was reborn." Draco said.

(Slughorn looked curiously at the boy who looked exactly like him when he was young, "Is this the descendant of my cousin?")
"Because everyone knows about Horace Slughorn's famous insight, everyone is happy to join it."

"Is that so?" Harry thought.

The students around who recognized Harry did not approach him. Most of them had already had enough fun on the platform, while a few of them
Harry looked skillfully at the seat next to the guest of honor - where Snape usually sat. He suddenly sensed a damp, dark, strange yet familiar magical fluctuation.

Draco's breathing became subconsciously much quieter.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

"Who is he?" Harry didn't remember seeing this face before, but it seemed strangely familiar.

("Salazar Slytherin!" whispered Ron.)
(The whole hall, especially the Slytherin side, instantly became boiling.)
(Then there's Hufflepuff, because in the eyes of the wizarding world, Helga Hufflepuff is the only one of the Big Four with a bloodline.)
(Gryffindor has no children bearing his name, and no direct or indirect descendants.)
(Ravenclaw had a daughter, but that daughter also appears to have died young.)
(So, everyone is wondering whether there will be a wizard who inherits the name of Helga Hufflepuff among the professors who appear next.)
Draco finally came back to his senses and said in a dreamy voice: "It must be hard for you to believe, he is Salazar Slytherin."

"But it's no big deal. The head of the Gryffindor wing in the middle school is still the weirdo Ulrich!"

("Weird Ulrich?")
(The auditorium suddenly becomes quiet.)
(It was hard for everyone to believe that the weirdo Yurik could become the dean of a college, and that someone was willing to inherit his name.)
(Which is far more surprising than the reappearance of Salazar Slytherin.)
(In the Middle Ages, there was no shortage of weirdos who made fun of themselves by studying magic.)
(And in that absurd era, those who could be called weirdos were undoubtedly the weirdest of the weirdos.)
(Wearing a jellyfish as a hat and sleeping in a room with over fifty pet Augureys are just a few of his most bizarre exploits; declaring the calls of the harpy birds to be beneficial; receiving a ten-day concussion after failing to walk through a wall when he thought he was dead; and attending a meeting with nothing on but a dead badger on his head.)

(The most important thing is that the weirdo Ulric is a student of Ravenclaw College, so how did he become the head of Gryffindor House, even though he was in a middle school.)
After hearing this, Harry temporarily put aside his surprise and curiosity about Salazar Slytherin and asked the same question.

Draco explained: "Slytherin House majors in light armor engineers, Hufflepuff majors in sub-dimensional environmental circulation engineering, Ravenclaw majors in atomic reactor modification, and Gryffindor majors in knights."

"Among these four majors, only the Knight major is more suitable for wizards."

"Weird Ulric is a wizard after all."

"Other majors are too difficult and focus on external things, which is completely contrary to the wizard's way of self-improvement."

(Ron snorted, "He's not good enough but he's trying to make himself more suitable for wizards. Didn't this guy who inherited the Slytherin name become the dean of Slytherin - Light Armor Engineer?")
Harry, who had read books on other majors, was also somewhat skeptical, thinking that it was mainly because other majors were more difficult.

After all, potions and alchemy are not external objects.

The other three majors are probably the same as arithmetic divination. No, they are even more difficult than arithmetic divination. Just like mathematics, it is impossible to really not know it.

But Harry still didn't expose Draco's lie, and instead asked, "Draco, will there be any familiar faces among the remaining professors? Especially our headmaster?"

As soon as he asked the question, Harry regretted that he was busy reading books and training, and did not go to Baidu to search for the teaching qualifications of Hogwarts University of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

That way he wouldn't be so surprised by the appearance of Salazar Slytherin.

'Draco' said nothing, looking towards the guest of honor table.

Harry realized that all the professors must have been seated and present.

He looked quickly.

'Head of Hufflepuff House? I don't know him.' 'I don't know him.'

'I don't know him.'

'Why are there only these people?'

("Why are there only these people?" Ron wondered.)
("Maybe because there are only four majors?" Neville replied.)
(Hermione was puzzled, "Where are the professors for Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, Potions, and Runes? Are they all classified as a major for knights, or are they already learned in primary and secondary school?")
'this'

Harry's eyes fixed on the main bathroom in the main guest seat - the headmaster's seat in the middle, "Albus Dumbledore?"

This shock was much more than the others.

(The audience in the magic world was also excited.)
(Isn’t the Dumbledore family extinct?)

(The elder brother likes men, the younger brother likes goats.)
(Albus Dumbledore's aunt also remained unmarried because she found her fiancé playing with some horkrups [a magical animal that resembles male genitals after all, used as a metaphor for her fiancé's sexual orientation].)
"Surprised, right?" Draco laughed. "I felt the same way when I first learned about it."

“But then I realized one thing, not getting married and liking goats doesn’t mean not having kids.”

(Grindelwald chuckled, "It must be the descendant of Credence, the son of that nasty Aberforth.")
(Dumbledore was surprised, "Could it be...")
"Credence Barebone, who followed Grindelwald. No, he should be called Aurelius Dumbledore. After the Black-White War, he chose to live with his father Aberforth."

"But in the end, his whereabouts were lost and there was no trace of him in the Hog's Head."

"This Albus Dumbledore is descended from the aunt of the Dumbledore of July 1881."

("What?" In the Hogwarts Great Hall and the Hog's Head Pub, the two Dumbledores doubted their lives.)
(They had never heard from their Aunt Honoria that she had a child. Could it be that the child was a Squib?)
Harry suddenly felt that he had never understood Dumbledore clearly.

It was in the first fairy world that we learned about the past of Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

The strange female professor next to Dumbledore stood up and said, "Please be quiet. I need to say a few words to the freshmen before the banquet begins."

"Let me first give a brief introduction of myself. I am the Head of Gryffindor House and Professor of Mechanics, Minerva Longbottom."

(Neville instantly became uneasy, and everyone's eyes were cast towards him.)
(He quickly explained, "Maybe they are descendants of my Uncle Algie.")
Noticing that some of the new students were unsettled, she added, "Yes, just as you guessed, I am the daughter of Neville Longbottom and Hannah Abbott."

(The surrounding gazes and boos became even more intense.)
(Neville blushes and drops his head into his elbows.)
(Hufflepuff Hannah Abbott blushed and looked at her future husband without any fear.)
(In the Longbottom old house, Neville's grandmother Augusta Longbottom burst into tears, "Great! My Neville Frank, your sons and granddaughters have all become great people.")
(“That girl’s last name is Ai Bo, right? I’m going to contact Amelia and let them meet in advance. I want to hold my great-granddaughter in advance!”)
Harry rubbed his eyes and finally found the outlines of Neville and Hannah from that cold face.

"This shouldn't be surprising. Most of you have gone through elementary and middle school, and you should be very familiar with schools and their professors, even colleges."

"Some of our colleagues in primary and secondary schools should have introduced me to you in advance."

"But let me emphasize again that I have never tolerated any grain of sand in my eyes. Even in college, I do not allow lateness or early departure for my classes."

(Ron's eyes lit up instantly, "Is it possible to be late for university classes and leave early?")
"The class schedule will be sent to your email, and a reminder text message will be automatically sent 10 minutes before class."

"I don't want you to make any excuses for not paying attention."

"Although the school cup system no longer exists, I still hope that everyone will pay attention to the fact that your grades in each subject, in addition to the test scores, still have a large proportion of your regular scores."

“Please abide by the campus rules and regulations and leave all uncivilized and non-compliant behaviors in the virtual universe.”

"Students who have obtained the virtual universe in advance, please send your nicknames and codes to my email after class."

"Just search the Hogwarts official website. My contact information is there."

After saying this, Professor Longbottom sat down again without even saying a word of closing remarks.

("Although she didn't inherit Professor McGonagall's name and doesn't look like her, she really does look like Professor McGonagall." Ron looked at Neville in surprise, "How did you raise your daughter to be like this?")
(Neville is silent. He is now looking furtively at Hannah.)
(Hannah, who was not timid at first, also began to dodge after noticing Neville's gaze.)
Then Dumbledore also stood up, "Welcome! Welcome everyone to start the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I also want to say a few words. It may be very cliché, that is: 'Idiot! Crybaby! Scum! Twist!' Thank you everyone!"

Having said that, he sat down and winked at Harry.

"It's really old-fashioned." Harry laughed until tears came out.

This made him feel like he was back in first grade.

However, beside him was no longer Ron, but 'Draco Malfoy'.

The food on the table had also changed a lot. Only a few of them he could recognize, and many of them were new dishes.

(Audiences around the world saw dishes from their own cultures in the show, and they all exclaimed that it was truly an interstellar era.)
(Ron has already stretched out his hand, wanting to touch these unrecognizable but mouth-watering delicacies.)
The drinks were also much richer, many of which he couldn't even name.

(“It’s Coke, but there’s lemon in it.” Some Muggle-born wizards recognized one of the drinks.)
Harry also recognized the Coke and poured himself a glass.

He never had the chance to do this at the Dursleys', and every time Dudley went out and had to leave Harry alone, he would drink all the drinks in advance.
