Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 148, Formal Meeting



It's night, and the study group formed based on the Rune Snake is about to have its first official meeting.

The event took place in the underground classroom not far from the common room, the room where the portrait of Mopsus hung.

Professor Snape not only approved the application, but also granted the underground classroom to Mesa.Taking advantage of this time, Mesa and others also renovated the underground classroom to make it more suitable for students to practice magic.

All the tables and chairs originally placed in the classroom were moved away and replaced with soft satin cushions. Even the walls of the room were padded to prevent students from being injured by bumps.

In addition, we also found several human-shaped targets from the corners of the castle, which can be used by junior members for practice.

Mesa was quite satisfied with the newly decorated classroom. He and Lilia waited here early for the first official assembly to begin.

After a while, a figure moved in front of the underground classroom door, and Gascoigne walked in with several boys.Jenkin Benson and Atlee Gregg are also in the mix.

These two students who had challenged Mesa took the initiative to find Mesa and wanted to join after receiving the news that the study group was successfully formed.It was a surprising scene. Originally, Mesa had planned to take the initiative to invite them.

"Your action is really admirable." Jenkins Benson said sincerely. A few days ago, this classroom was not what it is now.

Atlee Gregg kicked the soft cushions on the ground and said, "Yes, these soft cushions can make our fall less painful."

"You don't know, last time I hit the wall of the common room," Gascoigne also said, "My back hurt for several days!"

Leading students to practice magic and ensuring their safety is the most important thing. It is said that people are injured in every gathering, and the learning organization will be over within a month.

Furthermore, Mesa’s purpose is not to teach them magic, but to select them.Select capable and talented students, close the distance with them, and then absorb them for your own use to form the initial team.

Mesa didn't want the huge Slytherin to be unable to find talented students or find companions who didn't share the same goals with him.With these companions, Mesa's influence on Slytherin House will become even greater.

Gascoigne and others had just sat on the mats when someone else came in. Gemma Farley entered the classroom with several girls.Mesa is not very familiar with these chattering girls.

At 07:30, every mat was occupied.The number of people attending the first official meeting was much higher than expected, with a full 30 people.

After waiting for another five minutes, no one entered the classroom again. Gascoigne, who was sitting next to the door, walked to the door and turned the key in the lock, making a satisfying click.

The classroom that was filled with voices just now suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Mesa who was standing in front of the portrait.

Everyone in the classroom is here for Mesa, even the original members of the Runes.Everyone wants to become stronger, not just to be like Mesa, but at least to learn something from him.

"Welcome, welcome everyone here." Mesa stood on the podium and opened his arms. "I hope everyone can get what they want in the coming days."

"Magic, companionship, and of course, love..."

The students sitting on the cushions chuckled. Some girls blushed shyly, while some more cheerful girls looked around at the boys around them, as if they were carefully choosing their future partners.

And the boys...the boys were cheering loudly, and the rosier the girls' faces were, the more excited they were.

Mesa pressed his hands down, and everyone quickly quieted down in a dignified manner, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"I really want to start our practice right away, but there are no rules without rules." Mesa continued, "So I want to mention a few rules and hope everyone can abide by them."

The students looked at each other. Although they had not mentioned rules before coming, this was normal. As long as Mesa's rules were not too excessive, everyone could abide by them.

As for standing up and directly opposing it, no one is stupid enough to do such a stupid thing.Everyone has seen Mesa's strength and temper. They are here to learn magic, not to be a target.

"Article [-], during the assembly, everyone must obey my command. If you have any personal opinions, you can tell me privately," Mesa said. "If you can't do this, you can choose to stand on the podium and take my place, or now Just leave.”

As he spoke, Mesa pointed to the locked classroom door.Everyone looked at each other again, but no one moved their position. If they didn't prepare themselves mentally, they wouldn't come to participate in the rally tonight.

"Second, I personally hate being late and leaving early, so I don't want to see this happen." Mesa continued, "If something happens, you can tell me in advance. I think it's quite reasonable."

Still no one raised any objections. The two regulations currently proposed are normal requirements. Every student organization has similar regulations. This is for the convenience of management.

If you don't believe it, just take a look at the Quidditch teams of the four houses. Even if it's raining heavily and there's a blizzard on the field, they still have to train when they should, unless there's a knife from the sky.

Compared to the Quidditch team, the two regulations proposed by Mesa are almost negligible.If such a simple requirement cannot be met, it means that this person is not suitable to participate in any student organizations at Hogwarts, and he is not even suitable to go to school.

"The third and most important one." Mesa continued, "We are gathered here not to play house, but to practice magic, to strengthen ourselves, and to have a better future for ourselves. For Therefore, more sweat is bound to be paid, and if someone cannot do this, they can leave now."

Mesa's words finally caused a small commotion, but it went away as quickly as it came.

Still no one got up and left. Many people in the classroom had seen Mesa studying hard. They asked themselves that they couldn't do what Mesa was like, but they could still endure some hardship.

And everyone is watching. Whoever leaves at this time is saying that he cannot endure hardship and that he is squeamish!No one wants to do such an embarrassing thing in front of everyone.

Mesa took out a blank parchment and said: "This parchment is our member list, yes, it is still empty. After the assembly ends tonight, you will have plenty of time before the next assembly starts. Consider signing it."

As he spoke, Mesa took the lead in signing his name. He continued: "If you choose to sign and continue to participate in future rallies, you must abide by the three rules I just mentioned. Do you have any questions?"

"No."

"I'm OK."

"This is nothing to worry about."

Everyone's answers were varied, but no one chose to leave.Moreover, Mesa has given everyone enough time to think about it. Even if they really don't like these three rules and Mesa, there is no rush to quit at this moment.

Mesa put the parchment aside and said: "I am a person who understands things first and does not argue. I make everything okay and agreed upon in advance so that we don't have to argue and hurt the harmony later."

The atmosphere in the classroom was a little depressing, and Mesa's serious expression reminded everyone of the fear he had once dominated.

"Now, get out your wands!"

Swish, swish, the students sitting on the soft cushions immediately stood up and took out their wands.
