HP: Let professors walk towards the light

Chapter 3: Sorting Hat, are you getting old and confused?

?

"Welcome to Hogwarts..."

After Mag finished giving a long paragraph of information for freshmen, he asked the freshmen to wait quietly where they were and turned away.

"Four colleges, how will they be divided?"

"I heard it will test your magic level!"

"My dad said that every year is different. That year they pulled out the troll's teeth!"

The little kids started to imagine wildly again. People were always uneasy about unknown things. For example, Hermione was reciting spells frantically, and Harry clenched his fists nervously. While they were discussing, someone was caught off guard and screamed in fear by a ghost that jumped out.

Looking at the scene which was no different from the past, Hermalena had already quietly walked to the side. The place where she had been standing before was the perfect position to face those ghosts directly.

Professor McGonagall came out.

"Now, form a single file and follow me."

The freshmen followed Professor McGonagall into a magnificent auditorium. There were four long tables in the hall. Above them was a beautiful starry sky. There were many candles floating in the air for lighting. It was full of magic. The long tables were filled with golden plates and goblets, but they were all empty. In the front of the hall were the seats for the teachers.

Hermalena looked around the auditorium with pretended curiosity, but her eyes glanced at the teachers' seats.

Hello again, Professor.

?

"You may think I'm not pretty

But never judge a book by its appearance

If you can find a prettier hat than mine

I can eat myself

......"

Oh, the Sorting Hat is as tone-deaf as ever. In a way, this hat is quite annoying. At least Slytherin students won’t like it just because of the label of “sinister and cunning”.

"Now, whoever's name I call out will come up and sit here, put on his hat, and wait for the sorting."

"Hannah Abbott!"

"Hufflepuff!"

...

"Hermione Granger!"

"Gryffindor!"

When Harry heard the Sorting Hat call out Gryffindor, Ron snorted fiercely. He had previously stated that he did not want Granger to be in Gryffindor House.

Next was Harry. Well, as expected, he was sorted into Gryffindor. After a lot of noise, Draco Malfoy went to Slytherin and Ron went to Gryffindor.

Only Reina and Blaise Zabini are left in the team

"Hermarena Tallos!"

Reina slowly sat down on the stool, the big Sorting Hat covering her gray-brown hair.

Harry, who was standing by the field, was looking forward to the girl coming to Gryffindor, but Ron said to Harry, "I don't want to be in the same college with her."

"You didn't want to be in the same house with that Granger before."

...

"Ah, ah, another Talros, I remember, I remember, your father is a Slytherin, I wanted him to go to Ravenclaw, so, I think you can go to Gryffindor, I see you have the courage of Gryffindor..."

"?? Are you senile? Why do you suddenly think I will go to Gryffindor??"

"It's been quite a while, but I'm not confused yet. Although you're more suitable for Slytherin, don't you really want to try Gryffindor? I admire children with an adventurous spirit."

"Perhaps I could give you a bath, what do you think..."

"Oh! Slytherin!" the Sorting Hat shouted out the result.

What a bad taste! Before, they asked me to go to Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, and now it's Gryffindor? Where will I go next time? Are they trying to make me consider Azkaban?

Hermalena glanced at the Sorting Hat in confusion and didn't notice Harry from Gryffindor looking at her with disappointment.

Walking towards the Slytherin table, the little snakes applauded her arrival enthusiastically and gracefully, and Reina nodded politely to everyone.

"Hey! Talros! Come here!" Draco Malfoy pointed to the empty seat next to him.

With Zabini's arrival in Slytherin, the Sorting officially ended. Professor McGonagall left the hall with the Sorting Hat, and Headmaster Albus Dumbledore stood up with his arms outstretched.

"Welcome! Welcome everyone to Hogwarts to start the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I would like to say a few words. That is:

Idiot! Crybaby! Scum! Twist!

Thank you everyone!”

He then produced the food on the long table and sat down amid everyone's applause.

She was indeed a little hungry, as she had gone out early in the morning and had not eaten anything filling on the train, so Hermalena picked up a piece of roast beef in front of her not far from the Yorkshire pudding and began to eat it slowly.

Blaise Zabini came over and greeted Malfoy, then sat opposite Reina.

"Blace Zabini."

Knowing that he was greeting her, Reina put down her knife and fork and looked up at the person opposite her.

"Hermarena Tallos, nice to meet you."

"Hey! I knew I must be a Slytherin, Talros, I didn't expect you to be one too. I welcome you on behalf of Slytherin. I think we'll get along well, but I think you'd better stay away from that Weasley guy. He's so rude, isn't he? He has a simple mind and underdeveloped limbs. And that 'Potter', he rejected my advances! He actually rejected an advance from Malfoy! I really don't know what's going on in his head."

"Perhaps you can look for the reason in yourself. I remember you called me... a wild girl, right?" Reina smiled kindly and responded to the young master.

"I have no problem!"

"Remember what I said? Malfoy, your aristocratic upbringing..."

"Okay, forget that. I allow you to call me Draco, but you're not really going to write a letter to my father... I mean I didn't mean it at the time, you know, and as for other people, I don't care what they think."

"This apology doesn't sound sincere, but it doesn't matter. I rarely go out to socialize, so it's normal that you don't recognize me. But I still hope that you can pay attention to other people in the future, at least take your identity into consideration. Of course, you can also call me Hermalena, or Reina."

"Okay, then Reina, easy. Your name is a little hard to pronounce, isn't it?"

Meanwhile, many people came to Draco to chat and exchange ideas. Reina lowered her head to eat her meal. Of course, most of them came because of the Malfoy surname and wanted to show their presence in front of the future head of the family. But our young master seemed to enjoy the feeling of being the center of attention. He had a smug smile on his face and introduced her to other people from time to time. Although few of them knew this so-called young head of the family with outstanding abilities, they had at least met each other.

Not far away, the Gryffindor table was particularly lively because they got the savior Potter. Although they were noisy to begin with, Reina glanced at the teachers' seats. Sure enough, the black-haired and hook-nosed professor was staring at Harry as if he wanted to stare through him. The professor sitting next to him with a strange turban also glanced at Harry, but with some ill intentions.

Harry covered his forehead with his hands, showing a painful expression.

Just as Reina lowered her head, she felt a gaze cast on her again. She raised her eyes and met the owner of that gaze - Severus Snape - the professor with black hair and a hooked nose.

Why are you looking at me all of a sudden? There shouldn't be anything unusual about me, right? Could it be that the look just now was too obvious? I was confused, but I still responded to him with a smile and immediately went back to eating my roast beef.

After a long while, Professor Snape withdrew his thoughts and looked away.

After dinner, everyone in the hall quietly waited for the next instruction. Headmaster Dumbledore stood up again.

"Well, now that everyone is well fed and well drunk, I want to say a few words to you all. At the beginning of the term, I want to make a few points to you all.

Attention first-year students: the wooded area on the school grounds is off-limits to any student.

Some of our old classmates should also remember this well..."

I believe everyone knows who this is addressed to.

“…Finally, I must tell you that if you don’t want to encounter an accident and die in pain, then please do not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor.” What a meaningful tone.

Dumbledore excitedly directed everyone to start singing the school song with their own tune. Everyone sang in scattered groups, and except for the Weasley twins, no one seemed to take this as a kind of fun.

Soon, the principal asked the students from their respective colleges to return to their own lounges.

"Slytherin first-years! Line up and come to my side!" Everyone followed the prefects and walked underground to a stone wall.

"Listen, you can enter the Slytherin common room as long as you match the correct password, and I hope you remember not to pass the password out. You should know that no outsiders have entered our common room for hundreds of years..."

The class leader gave some instructions and warned the freshmen to put the honor of Slytherin first. After completing the process, he stopped bothering these little guys and let everyone go back to their dormitories to rest.

There are not many new Slytherin students, and Reina still sleeps alone. She has been busy all day. Not only did she have to get up early in the morning, but there were also constant accidents on the train. It was really the most tiring experience of the start of school. She simply washed up and went to bed because she had to go to class tomorrow.

Slytherin Boys Dormitory

Draco Malfoy was excitedly writing a letter to his father reporting that he had been sorted into Slytherin as he wished, as well as some things that happened today, such as making friends with other people who might be helpful to the family, Potter rejecting the advances from a Malfoy, the damn Weasley provoking him in public, and mentioning that the young female head of the family was in the same college as himself and expressing his desire to make friends with her, etc., filling up two large pages with text.

Late night

The little snake curled up, the little lion buried his head and snored, the young eagle folded its wings, and the badgers also huddled in their caves (in fact, badgers are nocturnal animals).

But some people don't sleep so peacefully.
