Marvel: I, Hermione, am from Hogwarts!

Fortunately, she reacted quickly.

Do I look that much like someone with dark wizard potential? Hermione was speechless for a moment.

Although Slytherin seems to suit her personality, it is indeed not suitable for her.

Hermione was well aware of how much those Slytherin brats discriminated against Muggle-born wizards.

If I actually go, I'll definitely start fighting with most of the people the very next day.

It's not that she couldn't take down these guys, it's just that there are many inconveniences.

Another important reason for choosing Gryffindor is that she can keep Harry Potter under her watchful eye at all times. Knowing the original story, she knows that once the other party starts causing trouble, she can take advantage of the chaos.

This advantage is something the other three colleges do not possess.

"Alright, alright..." The Sorting Hat sounded somewhat helpless. Although it could detect intelligence and personality, it ultimately had to respect the individual's wishes.

Then a loud shout rang out: "Gryffindor!"

With another new student joining, Gryffindor was naturally overjoyed.

Ron nudged Harry next to him.

"Hey, look, that aloof girl in the box earlier is actually a Gryffindor. She was already so skilled with spells before she even entered Gryffindor. I thought a genius like her would be sorted into Ravenclaw."

Harry covered his forehead, forced a smile, and kept glancing towards the podium.

Hermione knew that it was probably the scar Voldemort had left on Quirrell that was causing the reaction, but Harry was looking at Snape next to him.

You're already taking the blame on the very first day of school. Typical of you.

Ron patted the empty seat next to him repeatedly and waved to Hermione.

Hermione didn't refuse the offer and sat down next to the two of them, which gave her time to carefully look ahead.

Snape, dressed in a black robe, did indeed resemble a giant bat.

The shortest should be Flitwick...

Dumbledore... Holy crap, how did you grow from Jude Law into what you are now? What have you been through all these years?

The guy next to me is the professor who teaches flying broomsticks, what was his name again... I forgot.

and also……

Hermione's gaze fell on the last person.

He was dressed as Steve Jobs, except that there was no speaker inside his hat, only Voldemort.

Quirinus Quirrell, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who willingly allowed himself to be possessed by Voldemort.

Voldemort.

The troublemaker in the first year.

Reborn as a professor at Hogwarts.

They tried to retrieve the Philosopher's Stone, but ended up in the hands of a first-year wizard.

He lost both his life and his reputation.

Tragic, Quirrell, tragic.

Looking forward to your performance.

Hermione looked away.

After the branch campus was completed, a banquet was held amidst laughter and joy.

Dumbledore raised his glass, smiled in Harry's direction, and the latter nodded slightly.

Hermione, however, always felt that the other person might be looking at her, who was sitting next to Harry.

Hermione pretended not to see and just kept eating her dinner in silence.

……

Day two.

Hermione woke up early, borrowed a few books from the library, and headed straight to the classroom.

Last night, her time-travel ability was fully charged, but she didn't choose to return to Marvel. Instead, she stayed in her dormitory, otherwise she would have missed her first magic class at Hogwarts.

Whether she attended classes or not made little difference to her, but she didn't want to leave the professors with any impression of being eccentric.

Especially during their developmental period.

Marvel is still considering it, but at Hogwarts, Hermione has already defined her persona, and now all she has to do is continue to act according to that persona.

The first period this morning was Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class.

Hermione arrived earliest and, following the usual practice from her previous life, went straight to the last row, where only early risers were eligible to sit, while simultaneously opening her copy of "Hogwarts: A History of the School".

As the title suggests, the book tells the story of the founding of Hogwarts, including the founders of the four houses: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin.

Hermione chose this book not only because she wanted to learn more about this world, but also for personal reasons.

Regarding the category of "Ancient Magic" in the spellbook, although there is relevant content in the original work, her first thought was still the game "Legacy of Hogwarts".

Whether elements of "The Legacy of Hogwarts" exist in this world or not, perhaps clues can be found in this book.

While she was engrossed in reading, the new students also entered the classroom in twos and threes.

It seems that after a night, the students have begun to form their own small groups.

Some people did try to approach Hermione after seeing her, but after sensing the aura of "keep away" emanating from her, they ultimately gave up.

Just then, a gray and white cat jumped onto the desk and walked gracefully to Hermione.

Chapter 4 Transformation

"Ok?"

Hermione looked up at the cat.

……cat?

No, Professor McGonagall!

Hermione paused for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening.

The reason she quickly realized the true form of the cat in front of her was not because of her vague impression of the original book, but because of the sudden vibration of the magic book in her consciousness.

[The Curse]

[Transfiguration: Animagus (Cat) (Learned)]

The sudden turn of events caused Hermione's expression to change slightly, a hint of doubt and surprise flashing in her eyes before returning to normal in the next second.

"Hmm, could it be that Mr. Filch's cat has gone missing?" Hermione muttered to herself, then shook her head and continued reading.

Hermione simply ignored it.

McGonagall wasn't surprised at all. In her eyes, Hermione wasn't someone who was interested in furry little animals, so it was perfectly normal that she didn't pet her. Her surprise was probably just because she didn't understand why there was a cat in the classroom.

It could never have imagined that its proud disguise had already been seen through by the young wizard before it.

Professor Cat seemed particularly interested in Hermione, and tiptoed around her.

A moment later, it looked down at the open book on the table, its eyes showing a human-like look of confusion.

...Hogwarts history?

Why would this little guy be interested in this?

McGonagall was puzzled.

Although school history is something every freshman must know, and even the history of magic class will cover it, most freshmen prefer practical things like spells or potions when they first enroll, and few are interested in school history.

What an interesting little guy… McGonagall thought to herself.

Seeing Hermione engrossed in reading, McGonagall didn't disturb her any further. Instead, she jumped onto the platform and looked down at the students.

Shortly after, the school bell rang.

The classroom fell completely silent instantly.

It's truly a wizarding school; everyone is studying diligently... Hermione thought to herself, listening to the rustling of books being turned around her.

Even the three arrogant guys not far away were engrossed in reading.

You can say they're bad, but you can't say they're bad.

If there's one exception...

Suddenly, there was a noise behind me, and the classroom door was pushed open.

Harry and Ron rushed into the classroom, panting, and breathed a sigh of relief when they didn't see Professor McGonagall.

"Thank goodness, we barely made it. Otherwise, if Professor McGonagall had seen us late, she would have been horrified!" Ron muttered to Harry.

Although the sound was not loud, it was still clearly audible in the quiet classroom.

The freshmen: "..."

Even Malfoy rolled his eyes.
