Hogwarts: Who uses a crowbar in wizard duels?

"It seems it's true, Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts."

A cocky voice rang out.

Everyone looked at the boy with the slicked-back blond hair, Draco Malfoy, whose voice also caused whispers among the young wizards.

Draco strode confidently up to Harry Potter.

He introduced him to his two henchmen, then introduced himself: "I am Draco Malfoy."

Ron, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle, as if something had tickled his funny bone.

Draco immediately glared at Ron with an unfriendly expression.

"Do you find it funny? Weasley's! Red hair, tattered old robes."

"Only your Weasley family would be this poor!"

Draco gave Ron a sharp tongue-lashing, then turned to Harry and said...

"You'll find that wizards are divided into different classes, Harry. Befriending a poor family like the Weasleys will only harm you, but I can help you."

This time it was Kevin's turn to laugh.

"And who are you! You look like a Mudblood! How dare you laugh?" Draco was very annoyed after being laughed at twice in a row, and immediately retorted to Kevin.

Kevin wasn't going to sit idly by when his new friend got insulted. He had to teach this little dragon Draco a lesson, because only strength determines who's better.

Without a word, Kevin reached out and grabbed Draco by the collar, lifting him high into the air with just one hand before tossing him toward his two henchmen.

The sight startled the young wizards nearby, who gasped in surprise.

Harry and Ron exclaimed "Wow!" from behind, their eyes shining.

Some other Muggle families who saw this also felt a surge of bittersweetness.

Draco was furious after being thrown out in front of Kevin. Just as he was about to threaten Kevin, Professor McGonagall returned.

"Quiet!"

She didn't see Draco being thrown out, assuming it was just a problem with the young wizards' order.

"Now, come in with me."

Then he turned and led the way.

Draco didn't complain or anything, because he himself felt ashamed and was just about to say something harsh.

Kevin walked over to Draco again, placed a hand on Draco's shoulder, and Draco instantly fell silent.

"Draco, you're welcome to come back and get your revenge anytime."

After saying that, he patted his chest and then led Harry Ron into the hall.

"Kevin, you're so cool!" Ron and Harry exclaimed excitedly as they followed behind.

It was so satisfying to see Kevin stand up for them; Draco didn't even dare to say a word.

Kevin laughed, thinking that since he grew up in an orphanage, he might have some strength.

Everything can be blamed on the orphanage!

Soon, a group of young wizards arrived at the front of the hall amidst cheers from hundreds of senior students.

Thousands of candles floated in the hall, and the ceiling was enchanted, reflecting the sky outside and creating a magical atmosphere.

There were four long tables in the hall, where senior students from the four colleges were seated.

At the long table at the very front sat a group of professors, including Dumbledore.

Before the Sorting Ceremony began, Dumbledore began to speak.

He was much like the one in the movie, an elderly man with a long beard and wearing crescent-shaped glasses.

Hailed as the greatest white wizard of this century, the current headmaster of Hogwarts, and one of the most powerful figures in the film world.

Dumbledore didn't say much, just reminded the students not to enter the Forbidden Forest behind the college, and that the right side of the third-floor corridor was also a forbidden area.

After that, the college selection ceremony began.

"Those whose names are called, come forward."

Professor McGonagall took out a roll of parchment and read aloud:

Hannah Abbott

The girl who was called was a little witch. She walked nervously onto the stage, and Professor McGonagall smiled at her, indicating that she didn't need to be nervous.

Then pick up a magic hat from the chair.

The magic hat was placed on the head and made a sound; a face could be barely made out from the shape of the hat's folds.

"Hmm... Hufflepuff!"

A moment later, the Sorting Hat shouted.

A burst of enthusiastic cheers and applause erupted at the long table in Hufflepuff House.

Many of the young wizards who had been tricked into thinking the Sorting Ceremony was terrifying breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just wearing a hat.

"Hermione, Granger."

Hermione took a deep breath and, under everyone's gaze, slowly walked up while muttering to herself.

Ron grumbled to Harry and Kevin, "She looks weird, she's definitely got something wrong with her."

Harry raised an eyebrow, while Kevin nudged Ron in the lower back with his elbow, eliciting a yelp from him.

"Mr. Weasley! Keep quiet."

Professor McGonagall spoke sternly to Ron.

Ron looked at Kevin with a puzzled expression.

"Don't speak ill of others behind their backs."

Ron clutched his back without saying anything, eventually attributing it to Kevin growing up in an orphanage, suggesting he might have had some unpleasant experiences of being spoken ill of.

Hermione hadn't heard their conversation and was still nervously muttering to herself. After putting on the Sorting Hat, a moment later, the Sorting Hat shouted:

"Gryffindor!"

Cheers and applause erupted from the Gryffindor table.

Hermione stepped down and happily walked towards the Gryffindor table.

After a few rounds, it was Ron's turn. Like the other Weasleys, he entered Gryffindor.

Now for the main event!

"Harry Potter".

The moment the name was mentioned, it immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the crowd.

Harry walked up, looking a little nervous, muttering to himself just like Hermione.

Finally, amidst Harry's nagging, he was sorted into Gryffindor.

Then Harry smiled happily and ran towards Ron and Hermione's location.

The Weasley twins shouted, "Gryffindor has Potter!"

Kevin was actually quite curious. It was their first time at Hogwarts, and they didn't know anything about the school, so why were they so excited about being sorted into Gryffindor?

"Next, Kevin."

Kevin went up when he heard the noise, and the group of young wizards made way for him, still vivid in their minds the scene of throwing Draco away outside.

Professor McGonagall, oblivious to the young wizards' state, smiled at Kevin, who was very impressed with this well-behaved and sensible child.

"Hmm... You're looking forward to a great adventure. You're not lacking in courage, nor are you lacking in wisdom and ambition, but sometimes you're also quite easygoing. Hmm... It's a tough choice... All four houses would suit you well."

After the sorting hat was put on Kevin's head, he began talking to himself.

"Since you want an adventure, then... Gryffindor!!"

After a long while, the Sorting Hat finally shouted.

Applause and cheers erupted at the Gryffindor table, with Harry Ron clapping the loudest.

The three of them were very happy to be assigned to the same group.

Okay, I think I understand why they were so happy when they were sorted into Gryffindor. Kevin also walked happily toward the Gryffindor long table.

Is Hermione all alone?

Then I won't be polite!

"It's nice to meet you again, Hermione. I'm glad we're in the same house."

Harry. Ron: Shall I go?

"Me too, please take care of me in the future." Although Hermione looked very proud, and indeed she was, she was still a child. She was naturally happy to make friends with this boy who was so generous with his praise.

"Yes, please guide me."

"By the way, Kevin, I just noticed that Professor McGonagall didn't call you by your last name when she called you. So, did you forget or mispronounce your self-introduction?" Hermione noticed the oversight and asked the question she hadn't asked before.

"Yes, my name is Kevin, I don't have a surname."

Seeing the girl's puzzled look, he knew that this answer might not satisfy her.

Just like he had introduced himself to Harry Ron before, Kevin took out a wooden plaque and explained his background and why he didn't have a surname.

"I'm sorry, Kevin, I shouldn't have asked so many questions."

Hermione apologized to Kevin.

He said he was used to it.

Next, the division of labor finally ended, and the banquet officially began!
