Settle at Hogwarts

Chapter 11 Branch



As Taber stepped off the train alone, he heard a hoarse voice: "All the first-year students are gathering here. Hurry, if anyone dares to fall behind, I will definitely put him in the dungeon."

Following the voice, Tabor quickly walked up to an old man with a ferocious face.He was holding an oil lamp in one hand and a wand in the other, checking the number of new students on the list one by one against the parchment floating in front of him.

When he saw that all the new students had arrived, he put away the parchment.

"Hurry up and catch up. What you are going to experience next is the thousand-year tradition of Hogwarts. If anyone dares to cause trouble, I will definitely submit the most serious corporal punishment request to Mr. Principal."

Tabor followed the crowd and walked through the relatively dry path. He was glad that it had not rained here in the past two days.

When crossing the Black Lake, Tabor saw Feili, but before he could go over to say hello, the girl turned her head, leaving Tabor with her back blending into the night.

Finally, all the new students arrived at the gate of the castle, where Dumbledore was already waiting.

"Angus, you're lucky. Leave the rest to me." Dumbledore's tone was light, even a little indifferent.

And Angus didn't fare much better. He just held the oil lamp and walked into the castle hall without saying a word.

"Okay, kids. You've all had a hard day today. That was the caretaker of Hogwarts: Angus Harper. And I'm the deputy headmaster of Hogwarts and your future professor of Transfiguration. Albus Dumbledore. We still need some time to prepare in the Great Hall, during which time I can help you answer two questions."

The first-year students immediately started chattering. One of the bold children asked loudly: "Professor Dumbledore, can you tell us how to sort the schools? My father said that we need to defeat a troll to pass the test."

Hearing this question, the little wizards instantly fell silent. Everyone seemed to be listening to the people around them boasting about the horrors of Sorting.

Dumbledore glanced at the little carrots in the audience, and his eyes paused for a moment on Tubo, who did not show any panic expression, and then said: "I found that some of you are not nervous. Mr. Prince, regarding What do you think about the branching issue?"

Tabor couldn't help rolling his eyes, wanting to say something and just stand and watch.

"Although I don't know how to sort the schools, according to what I know, there is no record of injuries or expulsions for freshmen entering Hogwarts. In addition, I am confident to face any challenges."

Hearing Tubo's words, Dumbledore's blue eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. He seemed to be very satisfied with Tubo's answer, but mixed with some disappointment that his prank had been seen through: "That's a great answer, isn't it?"

After hearing Tubo's analysis, the freshmen seemed to be less nervous than at first, and they all wanted to ask other questions about Hogwarts.

Tabor did not participate in it, but silently experienced the changes in his body.After he crossed the Black Lake, he could clearly feel some changes in his body. It felt like arriving in Diagon Alley on the first day and Hogsmeade for the first time.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to his side, Tabor quickly took out his notebook and wrote down his guess that the conversion rate of divine power in Hogwarts would double.

"Okay, kids, I think the sorting ceremony is ready. Finally, I wish everyone can go to the college of their choice."

Tabor stuffed his notebook into his bag and followed the crowd slowly into the auditorium.Just as he stood still, he heard the Sorting Hat singing.

You may think I'm not pretty, but don't judge me by my appearance.

If you can find a smarter hat than me,

I can eat myself.

You can make your bowler hats black and shiny,

Make your top hats smooth and crisp,

I'm the top hat for the Hogwarts test,

Naturally, it is much taller than your hats.

any thought hidden in your mind,

Can't hide from the golden eyes of the devil's hat,

Try it on, and I'll tell you,

Which college should you be assigned to. ...

The Sorting Hat's song did not last too long. Perhaps the war did not reach Hogwarts, so this hat, which has been used for thousands of years, just introduced the four houses in a decent manner and then began to fulfill its duties. Responsibility.

"Phylly Potter."

Hearing Dumbledore call the familiar name first, Tubo immediately raised his head and looked towards the high platform.

At this time, Philly was sitting on a high chair. The big brim of the Sorting Hat completely blocked her sight. Tabor could only see the little girl's mouth moving, as if she was arguing with the Sorting Hat.

"Gryffindor!"

Dumbledore raised his hand to take off the Sorting Hat, while Philly glanced in Tubo's direction with some pride before running towards the Gryffindor table.

"Caractacus Bock"

A thin boy with a slight hunchback ran up to him. As soon as the Sorting Hat touched his hair, he shouted loudly without hesitation: "Slytherin!"

The boy named Burke walked to Slytherin's long table and sat down, but he didn't seem to be welcomed by most of the people in Slytherin, and everyone looked like they didn't want to provoke him.

"Tub Prince."

Upon hearing his name, Tabor quickly sat down on the high stool.

"Are you from the Prince family? It seems that all members of your family have chosen Slytherin or Ravenclaw. However, Dean Dumbledore hopes that you can enter Gryffindor, and the little girl just now also hopes that you can enter Gryffindor." If I can be in the same house as you, I can even go to Slytherin together."

Tubber was not surprised that Dumbledore had access to the Sorting Hat.

It's just that he thought that Feili was angry with him and had made up his mind to just become an ordinary alumnus. Unexpectedly, he asked to be assigned to the same college as him.

"Which house does Mr. Sorting Hat think I am more suitable for? In my opinion, all four houses will be of great help to me, and I prefer to go to the one that is more suitable for me. But to be honest, the four houses of Hogwarts Among the colors of the college, I prefer blue, which is deep and broad, elegant and low-key. It is not as ostentatious as gold and red."

Tabor was not in a hurry to be sorted, but casually chatted with the Sorting Hat.Anyway, my eyes are covered by the big brim of the hat. As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

"What an interesting little guy! Your talent means that you do not lack wisdom, and your recognition of wisdom is enough to allow you to enter Ravenclaw. However, you have a strong purpose in acquiring knowledge, so in my opinion Ravenclaw is not the place to be."

Tabor nodded silently in his heart. He was indeed not interested in the seemingly useless knowledge. He might be curious about it in his spare time, but he would never waste time studying it.
