Everyday Players at Hogwarts..

Chapter 556: The Provocative Sorting Song
Time passed so slowly, this was the first time Ryan felt this way.

Because in addition to Kate, Penelope, who had just finished her duties as student union president, also joined the staring army.

Unabashedly watching his interactions with Luna and Hermione.

I feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles.

The method of listening to gossip that I used to pass the time no longer works.

Everyone around seemed to be talking about only one topic: the Final Four.

Rumors spread quickly among the students, like highly contagious bacteria: who would compete to be the champion of Hogwarts, what events would be in the competition, and how the students of Beauxbatons, Durmstrang and Castellobus were different from them.

what the hell!

A whole summer vacation has passed, so forget about the Muggle-borns.

How come these people who grew up in the wizarding world don’t know information about other schools? What is there to discuss?

Besides, didn’t Ron just make a fool of himself?
Why don't you talk about Ron's gossip?

Ryan, who was almost tired of listening to the semi-finals, had no choice but to give up.

He grabbed Hermione and Luna's hands and taught Vagado the gesture magic.

And Harry.

In the past, he would observe everything on the staff desk.

Especially Dumbledore.

But today he didn't, because of what Dean said, he didn't even look at the staff seats.

He kept looking around.

Trying to find traces of other schools.

However, after going around like this, the only thing he noticed was that the castle was cleaned thoroughly.

Several dirty portraits were scrubbed clean, much to the displeasure of the characters who were scrubbed.

They sat huddled in the picture frame, muttering unhappily, and grimacing in pain every time they touched the newly exposed pink flesh on their faces.

That caused the armor to suddenly become shiny and no longer creaked when moving.

And then there's the enchanted ceiling.

It really shows what the sky looks like today.

Harry had never seen it so stormy.

Black and purple clouds rolled above, and as another round of thunder sounded outside, a forked streak of lightning streaked across the ceiling.

Before we knew it, Professor McGonagall had already brought out those little first-year kids.

The group of little kids were all soaked.

It's not so much that they came here by ferry as that they swam across the lake.

The first-year students, like in previous years, had their backs to the staff seats and were facing them.

But this year, perhaps because of the rain and they were soaked, the freshmen seemed particularly nervous.

However, there was a little boy with blond hair who was different.

He seemed extremely confident, almost aggressively so.

Appears particularly arrogant.

She looked just like Hermione in first year, but twice as annoying as she was when she wasn't in front of Ryan.

Moreover, Harry noticed that Ryan, who was not far away, suddenly raised his head and glanced at the blond boy with an unhappy look.

This made Harry feel curious and pity for the boy.

He was doomed to be unlucky after being targeted by Ryan.

At this time, Professor McGonagall placed a three-legged stool on the ground in front of the freshmen, and placed a tattered, dirty, and patched wizard's hat on the stool.

The first-year students stared at it in amazement.

Others looked at it too.

For a moment, there was silence in the auditorium.

Then a crack near the brim opened like a mouth, and the hat suddenly began to sing:

That was a thousand years ago.
Four great wizards founded Hogwarts.

This attracted countless wizards to come and learn and imitate.

The first was Elvas,
The kindly Hufflepuff was his friend.

With the help of the Big Four,

He was gifted with a way to hide the school site.

Castrobusa was born.

Then came wise Maxim,

She studied in Ravenclaw, which represents wisdom.

Her extraordinary wisdom made her choose to return to her hometown.

Beauxbatons was founded in France. Then came the brave Vulcanova,

She studied at Gryffindor House.

Durmstrang was founded in Germany, where witches had a lower status than wizards.

Finally, there is the proud Monte, who is from Slytherin and returns to his hometown.

Inherited Durmstrang,

Established a tradition of dueling and war magic.

After the Sorting Hat finished singing, there was warm applause in the hall.

"So, these three schools are actually related to Hogwarts?" Lisa Dupin exclaimed.

She looked at Harry, the authority figure of their class.

He always knows best.

"This song is simply provoking a fight." Harry said with lingering fear.

"What's going on?" Padma asked hurriedly.

The people around also pricked up their ears.

"We all know how Hogwarts hides its address - it looks like a pile of collapsed ruins to Muggles.

The same is true for Castrobusche.

However, we have not yet reached a consensus on who should have the first idea.

And Maxime, the founder of Beauxbatons.

She didn't return to her hometown because of any extraordinary wisdom.

But being excluded.

Because - as you all know, she is French.

The founder of Durmstrang, Volkanova, died mysteriously while in office.

Then, Harvon Mount, who came from Slytherin, quickly took over the position of headmaster.

Combined with the word 'inheritance' in the school song, it's ironic.

And it was Monte who started the first dark period in Durmstrang's history." Harry said with a complicated expression.

"Then they won't fight with us!" Lisa Dupin swallowed.

This caused Ron to sneer, "Fight? That's perfect. I can deal with Krum openly!"

"What? You don't like him?" Lisa Dupin exclaimed.

"Lisa, you don't know?" Padma frowned.

Her twin sister Parvati is Lavender's best friend and was in the carriage when Lavender complained about Krum.

"I like him?" Ron laughed in anger.

I couldn't help but patted the table and said, "I just liked it before.

But not now.

Padma, you should know.

Krum confessed to Lavender!

With my girlfriend. ”

"I see." Lisa nodded.

But Ron's words and behavior translated into another meaning in her ears.

Ron liked Krum.

But Krum doesn't like men.

She even fell in love with Lavender, Ron's shield.

However, Harry didn't care too much about these things.

After explaining why he thought the school song was a provocation.

His attention was focused on the Sorting Ceremony.

He only wanted to know one thing now: What was the name of the guy with yellow hair?

Maybe you can see why Ryan hates him.

After Ron explained the whole story, the sorting ceremony just happened to come to an end, and it was time to sort the surnames starting with 'S'.

"Zacharias Smith!"

"Hufflepuff!"

Finally, the sorting ceremony ended with the sound of Zacharias Smith being sorted into Hufflepuff.

Professor McGonagall picked up the Sorting Hat and the stool and took them away.

And Harry, "What the hell! His last name is Smith too! And he can be in Hufflepuff too?"
