HP: Wizards at Hogwarts

"What's wrong with them?"

Elaine nudged the people around him.

Harry looked helpless: "It's all because of what you said outside just now. They know they've been fooled, of course they're angry!"

Hermione, her face also showing displeasure, lowered her voice and complained, "I knew you were lying. How could the ghosts of Hogwarts eat children?"

"No, it's not just ghosts!"

"No one in this world would do that!"

Ha ha……

Elaine smiled faintly.

"Young witch, you are still too ignorant!"

"When you grow up, you'll know that there really are people like that in the world."

Hermione frowned upon hearing this, then tossed her head and stopped talking.

She made up her mind that she would never believe a single word Elavin said again!

As the three were talking, Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, holding a roll of parchment in her hand.

"When I call someone's name, that person should put on their hat, sit on the stool, and await sorting."

"Hannah Abbott!"

A little witch with two golden braids stepped out of the procession.

They're here! They're here!!

He's the legendary Iron-Capped Prince!

Elaine felt a surge of excitement.

If the world I transmigrated into was a Harry Potter fanfiction, then that novel should now be officially recognized!

Hannah approached Professor McGonagall, sat down on the bench, and put on the Sorting Hat.

A true king never needs magic; he only needs to sit quietly on the throne and put on the hat!

"Hufflepuff!"

As expected, the Iron-Hat Queen returned to Hufflepuff, who remained loyal to her!

The entire cafeteria erupted in thunderous applause.

Especially at the Hufflepuff table, everyone stood up excitedly and applauded wildly.

"Susan Bornes!"

"Hufflepuff!"

"Terry Boot!"

"Ravenclaw!"

The sorting ceremony continued, but the initial enthusiasm for welcoming the Iron-Capped Prince had faded.

The order of the branch schools is based on surnames.

Elaine's last name is "Yakut," which starts with "Y," so it will be quite far down the list, perhaps the last one.

"Hermione Granger!"

Hermione practically ran to the stool and hurriedly put the Sorting Hat on her head.

She sat on the stool like that for almost a minute.

"Ravenclaw!!"

The students cheered as usual, but Elaine looked surprised.

Hermione went to Ravenclaw?

Could it be that my introduction of the four colleges on the train changed her mind?

It's not impossible...

Hermione already possessed traits of both Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. Given her personality—which craved high marks and praise—it was quite normal for her to go to Ravenclaw after learning about the dormitory environment and the house atmosphere beforehand.

Or perhaps, the "Frozen Lake Trial" just now intensified her desire to master spells and acquire knowledge to some extent?

Who can say for sure?

However, this would mean the trio would be missing a piece, turning it into a story of Harry and Ron being all lovey-dovey.

How about we let Neville fill Hermione's vacancy?

It will be difficult, as Neville doesn't possess qualities that complement the other two.

It would be better to just train Harry and Ron to be low-budget versions of Merlin and Arthur.

Ok……

This idea seems pretty good?

"Neville Longbottom!"

"Gryffindor!"

"Draco Malfoy!"

"Slytherin!!"

"Harry Potter!!"

When Professor McGonagall announced the name, the entire room fell silent.

Everyone's attention was drawn, from Dumbledore and Snape in the teachers' section to the students below. They held their breath and watched the famous boy with anticipation.

After a two-minute silence, the Sorting Hat finally spoke.

"Gryffindor!!"

Thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the long table in Gryffindor.

The Weasley twins yelled, "We have Potter! We have Potter!!"

Harry excitedly walked towards Gryffindor and sat down next to the few freshmen who had just passed by.

However, his gaze remained fixed on the stage, intently watching his two friends who had not yet decided where to go.

The number of new students at the sorting ceremony dwindled until only two remained.

"Ron Weasley!"

"Gryffindor!!"

Ron finally breathed a sigh of relief and jogged over to the Gryffindor table, sitting down next to Harry.

Only Elaine remains from the freshman class.

So I was the last one after all?

Since it's the main event, we have to do something special!

Elaine walked over to Professor McGonagall and took the Sorting Hat from her.

Is it finally going to end?

The teachers thought.

Can we finally eat?

The students thought.

Is it finally this child's turn?

Dumbledore suddenly sat up straight and perked up.

This was a child he had personally taken in, and one who was also a very talented wizard, so Dumbledore took great care of him, paying almost the same level of attention to Elaine as he did to Harry.

At that moment, Elaine made an unexpected move.

Unlike previous freshmen who simply put the hat on their heads, he jumped onto the stool.

"When I received my Hogwarts acceptance letter a little over a month ago, I was so excited that I thought I had discovered a new world."

"However, after learning about the history of the magical world, all those beautiful visions vanished like bubbles in an instant."

"The current state of the magical world utterly disappoints me!"

"My fellow countrymen, this world shouldn't be like this!"

Dumbledore, sitting in the middle of the teachers' table, froze on his face with a smile.

The crescent-shaped glasses hanging on the crooked nose drooped slightly, as if, like their owner, their hearts were in turmoil.

Merlin's beard!

What is Elaine up to?!

Both his blond hair and blue eyes, and his cynical speaking style, gave Dumbledore a sense of being in another world.

picture!

so similar!

"What are you doing, Mr. Yakut?"

Professor McGonagall suddenly sensed something was wrong and quickly spoke up in a low voice.

She was all too familiar with this feeling; she always had this uneasy feeling whenever the Weasley twins caused trouble.

"Don't be nervous, Professor McGonagall."

Elaine smiled slightly at Professor McGonagall.

"You know what, Professor McGonagall?"

"In Muggle society, whenever new students start school, the school sends a student to give a speech as a representative of the new students, talking about their academic journey, their inner feelings, and their aspirations for the future. I waited for a long time, but no one came up to the stage, so I had to go up myself."

Professor McGonagall said sternly, "Hogwarts has never had this tradition."

Stop him!

We must stop him!

This little wizard is definitely a more troublesome opponent than the Weasley twins!!
