Hogwarts: Starting as a Serpent Demon

"No more than four people per boat," Hagrid shouted, directing the young wizards to board in order.

Because he had been reminiscing for too long, Witt fell behind and happened to run into Draco, who was also lagging behind.

"There are no seats anywhere else, so I'll sit here. You guys don't mind, right?"

Draco!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

I have an opinion, I have an opinion, I have a very strong opinion.

Draco wanted to refuse Witt, but he didn't dare to say it.

He just sat there stiffly, letting Witte get on the boat.

Chapter 10 The Iron-Capped Prince

"I never imagined we would be so destined to meet."

Witt sat at the back of the boat, waving his wand. Without any human intervention, the oars began to move on their own. Witt assured everyone that this trip together was truly just an accident.

"I don't want to be associated with you." Seeing that there were many people around, and thinking that Vittor wouldn't dare to lay a hand on him, Draco's courage suddenly grew.

I completely forgot how scared I was before.

His tone wasn't as harsh as his words.

“That sounds like a good suggestion,” Witt said with a gentle smile. “I don’t really hope we have any connection either. I hope you’ll remember that.”

If Draco is too afraid to cause him trouble, that would be a really good thing for Witt.

However, noticing Draco's eager look, Witt felt that this was probably just wishful thinking.

Hopefully, the other party can tone it down a bit.

If someone is too obnoxious, he might hit them really hard.

Will Draco back down? Obviously not.

He was capable of doing something like, after the Triwizard Tournament, taking Goyle and Crabbe to the Gryffindor carriages and launching a group taunt that indiscriminately mocked everyone.

He publicly announced that the Dark Lord would return to cleanse all Mudbloods and all those associated with Muggles, and that Cedric was the first unlucky superhero to fall victim to this.

Although Draco's fate was somewhat tragic due to being shamelessly ambushed and ganged up on by all the Gryffindor members, his courage and reckless spirit were admirable.

May they live forever.

If he weren't stuck on the ship and unable to escape, Draco would definitely have cursed Witt and given him a very humiliating nickname.

Let's also compose another song.

The search for someone at Hogwarts spread like wildfire.

Let this snake-eyed freak know what happens when you offend the Malfoy family.

As he was thinking about it, Draco suddenly burst out laughing.

What are you laughing at?

Witt turned his head; he had a feeling that Draco was thinking something very rude, and it was definitely related to him.

"I'm sorry... I was just laughing at you."

Draco, who was about to apologize out of fear, suddenly realized that the ship had unknowingly reached the shore, so he jumped out of the small boat.

The moment Draco set foot on the earth, his courage level skyrocketed.

They easily accomplished things they wouldn't have dared to do before.

"Fufufufu".

Draco's amusing demeanor suddenly gave Witt a whim to tease him.

"I finally got a chance to escape, and instead of running away, you dare to challenge me."

Witt stood up and used magic to make his deep wizard robes billow, exuding an aura like that of a great demon king.

"Very well, I accept your challenge."

Draco o((⊙﹏⊙))o

Something seems off. Shouldn't he be chasing after me in a fit of rage so I can complain to his professor that he's bullying me?

Why did it turn out like this?

That aura is incredibly strong.

The lake water rippled black under the moonlight, a cloak moved without wind, and emerald green vertical pupils like a snake's eyes.

This makes Werther seem like a true demon king.

"The Mysterious Man".

Someone shouted something, and the young wizards who were disembarking suddenly panicked.

Some fled in terror, some were unable to escape the turmoil, and others were confused and at a loss.

No matter how much Hagrid shouted, it was to no avail.

Witt [?_??].

He seems to have messed up. Are all wizards in the magical world this sensitive? They can associate a few words with Voldemort.

......

As the scene grew increasingly chaotic and the situation spiraled completely out of his control, Witt was even preparing to use a petrification spell to freeze them all in place.

Hagrid brought in reinforcements.

McGonagall... no, Professor McGonagall.

He simply stood there and coughed, and the noise in the room instantly fell silent.

Welcome to Hogwarts.

While she offered words of welcome, McGonagall's tone was incredibly serious.

She suppressed the last sobs.

If this were a game, Professor McGonagall's crowd control skills would definitely be maxed out.

After a while, once the students had calmed down, McGonagall turned around and said, "Come with me."

"The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you arrive at the restaurant and take your seats, we first need to confirm which college you will be attending..."

Because of the long delay, McGonagall could only explain the matters concerning the zoning to the students as she walked.

From the underground dock to the empty room next to the auditorium, McGonagall precisely timed her journey and successfully completed her task of explaining and guiding.

"The college selection ceremony will begin in a few minutes in front of the entire faculty and students. I suggest you tidy your appearance while you wait so that you can look more presentable."

"Please keep quiet."

After McGonagall left, her crowd control abilities disappeared, and the students were instantly freed, immediately starting to whisper among themselves.

"They just said the Man of Darkness, is it Voldemort?" Harry asked Ron with a questioning tone, "Did you see who it was?"

“It looks like him.” Ron pointed quietly at Witt and whispered, “I noticed it when we boarded the ship. He has snake-like eyes.”

"It's him."

Harry glanced at Witt, shook his head slightly, and said, "I've seen him at Gringotts before. He's not a bad person. Dumbledore even gave him a book. I don't think he's Voldemort."

"How could Voldemort possibly have received a book from Dumbledore? That's impossible."

Ron was somewhat skeptical of Harry's words, but due to a habit he had developed since childhood, he did not refute Harry.

Squeak.

McGonagall pushed open the closed door, and the noise instantly disappeared.

Everyone was very nervous.

"Now, line up in a single file and follow me closely."

McGonagall walked in front, Harry was first, followed by Ron. Witt wanted to stand in the middle, but some people seemed to be deliberately avoiding him.

There was no other way; he could only stand until the very end.

Witt had a premonition that after the start of the school year, he might have to spend a period of isolation as he made atone for his previous impulsive decision.

However, this might not be a bad thing for Witt.

He didn't have much in common with these young wizards.

Being isolated is just fine.

The Great Hall of Hogwarts.

Despite having seen it in the movie, Wit still felt deeply shocked when he saw it in person.

Floating candles, reflecting the magic of the sky.

And a bright green Slytherin banner.

Every single one of them is a scene I could only see in my dreams.

Professor McGonagall walked to the podium, took out a four-cornered stool, placed it in front of the new student, and then put a worn-out, dirty wizard's hat on it.

The hat sprouted eyes and a mouth, and began to sing self-composed songs in its awful voice.

Luckily, I was standing far away.

Witt began to feel fortunate that he was standing in the last row, where the noise was much quieter than in the first row.

Professor McGonagall did not step forward until the Sorting Hat finished singing, and she took out a roll of parchment and began to read.

“When I call out someone’s name, that person should come forward, sit on the stool, and put on their hat.”

"Hannah Abbott".

Hufflepuff.

......

While waiting for the Sorting Hat to sort him into Gryffindor, Witt began to ponder whether he could discuss it with the Sorting Hat and have himself sorted into Gryffindor.

Witt's reason for wanting to go to Gryffindor is simple: part of the achievement in the game is winning the House Cup, and if he goes to Gryffindor, he can just sit back and win.
