Hogwarts: Why do you call me the Demon King?

"What?! Sir has been sorted to Hufflepuff?!" Harry's eyes widened. He wished he had known he had been sorted to Hufflepuff too!

"He wasn't sorted there; he asked for it himself!" Hermione shouted to Harry, noticing Isaac's earlier action of pinching the Sorting Hat's mouth.

"But...why?"

Harry didn't understand, neither did Percy, who wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Isaac, and Ron's twin brothers Fred and George understood even less.

They may not understand, but that doesn't stop them from understanding.

For these twins, any unexpected situation or circumstance is something to celebrate.

If refusing Gryffindor's request to go to Hufflepuff was Isaac's first prank upon arriving at Hogwarts, then the two brothers would gladly call Isaac the strongest!

Taking off his hat, Isaac looked at Professor Dumbledore on the professor's chair.

Dumbledore's expression remained unchanged as he sat in his seat; he even raised his glass to Isaac in celebration.

Yes, the name that was almost crossed out in "Dumbledore's Favorite Student" is none other than Newt Scamander, the Hufflepuff dropout!

Chapter 70 I will give Cedric a "good guy" card.

When Isaac arrived at the Hufflepuff table, he was warmly welcomed by all the young Hufflepuff wizards.

Prefect Gabriel Truman even rose from his seat and strode over to Isaac, shaking his hand warmly.

"Welcome, Valdorei! Choosing Hufflepuff Academy will absolutely be the best decision you've ever made!"

Gabriel Truman is a prefectural chief in Hufflepuff.

Just call me Gabby, that's what my friends call me.

Although the young wizards at Hufflepuff are "honest and law-abiding," they are not stupid. Hermione saw Isaac pinch the Sorting Hat's mouth, and so did they.

Putting aside all the gossip and rumors surrounding Isaac, the only thing that's publicly known is the news of him subduing a Death Eater before enrolling in school.

This is an achievement officially certified by the Ministry of Magic.

Let alone these young wizards, even if you asked them to go back and ask their parents, how many of them could subdue a Death Eater?

“Hello, Gabby.” Isaac shook Gabriel’s hand. “Just call me Isaac.”

Furthermore, I am quite certain that what you said is correct.

Isaac's affirmation made the Hufflepuff prefect beam with pride; he himself was a Hufflepuff who valued honor.

He would even challenge a Ravenclaw prefect to a duel for the honor of being an alumnus of the college.

Isaac's words touched his most sensitive spot.

"Come, let me introduce you properly!" With Gabriel's enthusiastic introduction, Isaac quickly got to know another prefectural chairwoman in Hufflepuff.

Finally, Gabriel introduced Isaac to a third-year wizard.

Cedric Diggory.

“Isaac, Cedric is just as great a lad as you are from Hufflepuff!”

"With you all, Hufflepuff will only get better and better!"

While everyone was chatting in secret, Isaac suddenly noticed something: the Hufflepuff student management team seemed to be led by Prefect Gabriel.

The prefect's attitude toward Gabriel's leadership seemed more like she was happy to see it happen.

Cedric Diggory was quite popular among the young wizards of Hufflepuff.

"Welcome, Isaac!" Cedric greeted Isaac warmly, even moving his seat to sit next to Isaac.

With Gabriel on his left and Cedric on his right, Isaac is practically alienating himself from the Hufflepuff crowd!

"Hello, Cedric." Isaac and Cedric shook hands firmly. Cedric was very tall, much taller than other young wizards his age.

He had jet-black hair and bright gray eyes, and was physically strong and muscular.

In American TV shows, a character like Cedric would either bully the main character or an important supporting character.

In short, he has to bully something.

However, Cedric's personality is the complete opposite of the above.

"To be able to subdue Death Eaters before even enrolling in school is truly an outstanding achievement, but it must also be quite dangerous, right?"

Cedric said seriously, "It wasn't reported in the Daily Prophet. Isaac, you're not injured, are you?"

With just one sentence, Isaac understood how Cedric had gained such popularity.

Everyone asks Isaac how he did it, how he became so awesome.

How was Isaac supposed to answer that?

Grindelwald taught him that way, and that's how he learned it. You can learn spells just by looking at them and practicing a little.

To Isaac, this thing was as simple as breathing.

Do you really need to go out of your way to learn how to breathe?

Cedric was the only one who didn't ask how he subdued the Death Eaters or how he created his own spell; he only asked Isaac if he was injured at the time.

In the eyes of this third-year wizard, Isaac saw only sincerity and concern.

What's that old saying again?

Others only care about how high you fly, but he's different; he cares about how tired you are from flying.

Isaac should be grateful he read Harry Potter in his past life; he knows Cedric probably likes Cho Chang.

Hmm... this guy's sexual orientation is normal, which means he's a pretty good person.

"Ha, let me tell you something that wasn't reported in the newspapers." Isaac felt that he had made the right choice coming to Hufflepuff; where else could he find a school with such a great atmosphere?

"When the Death Eaters attacked me, I had already contacted Professor Dumbledore."

He was hiding right next to me, but the Death Eater just didn't see him.

So I wasn't injured, and it was impossible for me to be injured.

The battle itself wasn't actually that thrilling—at least not for me.

Isaac's words made Cedric and Gabriel raise their eyebrows simultaneously, and then they both laughed along with Isaac.

It's actually very simple for men to get closer; sometimes a glance or a gesture is enough.

Sometimes, a secret known only to them can cause a man's relationship to heat up rapidly.

Just like now.

Just as Isaac was being welcomed, the Sorting Ceremony came to a close.

Ron was unsurprisingly assigned to Gryffindor in a second.

Finally, Dumbledore stood up: "Welcome, everyone, welcome to Hogwarts to start the new school year."

Before the banquet begins, I must announce that, due to work commitments, Professor Green will no longer be the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

In the new school year, we welcome a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor—Professor Venda Rozier!

Professor Wenda rose gracefully from the faculty table and bowed to the four long tables.

Regardless of whether they knew Professor Venda or not, her elegant appearance and similar age to Professor McGonagall earned her enthusiastic applause from the students.

"Actually, I think Professor Green's classes are very good, but unfortunately that position has a damn curse."

Gabriel was somewhat frustrated, as he would be facing the Common Wizard Level Examinations (OWLs) this year.

This school year, he not only has to learn new knowledge, but also needs to review the knowledge from grades 1 to 4.

Not to mention the heavy workload, without a reliable Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, it's really difficult to get an O (excellent) if you rely entirely on self-study.

"I wonder what Professor Rozier's level is really like."

"Don't worry." Reminded by Gabriel and Dumbledore, Isaac realized that he had already returned to Hogwarts.

This also means that Professor Wenda's practical training of him is still ongoing.

"Professor Venda will definitely be a very professional professor, at least when it comes to Defense Against the Dark Arts."

Isaac has already experienced Professor Venda's educational level, albeit a radical one.

However, Professor Venda also has a conservative teaching approach available for other young wizards.

What are Grindelwald and his saints most famous for? Their black magic?

Wrong. What they are most famous for, and what the Ministry of Magic fears most, is their ability to "bewitch people."

If Grindelwald could persuade his guards to turn against him, then Venda Rozier teaching a group of young wizards would be no problem at all.

At worst, we can just treat the young wizards at Hogwarts as little saints.

They're all very familiar with the route.

Chapter 71 The Person Who Can't Handle Pressure. Zhou Yu's Smile

While Isaac and Gabriel were engrossed in cricket fighting with Professor Venda, Dumbledore had already signaled that dinner was ready.

As Dumbledore finished speaking, Hufflepuff's plate was filled with more food.
