Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 7 Sorting Ceremony

"You will follow me into the auditorium in a moment and complete the sorting ceremony there."

Professor Minerva McGonagall, the deputy principal of Hogwarts and the head of Gryffindor House, one of the four houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, stood at the top of the stairs and looked at more than thirty excited teenagers. , said lightly.

These children were in the midst of excitement and were a little noisy, but she didn't mind too much.

She did not go into details about the sorting ceremony, but simply introduced the names of the four colleges they would be assigned to.

Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff.

For people from magic families, they don’t really need an introduction, but Lu Yunkai doesn’t know that!

"Is there any difference between these colleges?" Lu Yunkai asked Ron beside him in a low voice.

Chris slipped away again as soon as he entered the school gate. He could only ask the person around him who knew the magic world best.

"I don't know the details. Anyway, several of my brothers are in Gryffindor, and most of the mysterious man and his men are from Slytherin. Anyway, as long as I am not sorted into Slytherin, it will be fine." Ron His expression looked nervous.

"Don't worry, you will definitely be sorted into Gryffindor." Hermione answered from the side.

"Thank you." Ron nodded.

As a few of them muttered, the waiting time passed. Professor McGonagall motioned to the teenagers to follow her into the school auditorium.

The auditorium was brightly lit, and the bright starry sky overhead shone with magic. The flags and logos of their respective colleges hung above the four long dining tables, with the four distinct colors of red, blue, yellow and green.

The freshmen walked through the passage and arrived at the front of the auditorium under the gaze of the old students who were already seated.

There, lying on an armchair, was a shabby peaked hat.

Professor McGonagall motioned to the freshmen to stand in the open space in front of the pointed hat. She stood aside, took out a scroll from her sleeve, and began to preside over what she called the sorting ceremony.

"The students whose names I read out come forward and put on the sorting hat. It will sort you into the house you should go to." Professor McGonagall said the opening remarks first.

However, he did not continue to speak, but looked at the sorting hat.

"Wow!" exclaimed the crowd of freshmen.

Lu Yunkai was also shocked.

The tattered Sorting Hat suddenly opened its eyes and mouth.

At first he thought they were just wrinkles on his hat.

Then, something even weirder happened: the Sorting Hat actually sang.

Lu Yunkai, who was mixed in the crowd, couldn't quite hear the vague singing of the Sorting Hat, but he could vaguely hear that it was introducing the four houses, such as the brave and bold Gryffindor, the upright and loyal Hufflepuff, the wise The erudite Ravenclaw, the Slytherin who does whatever it takes to achieve his goals...

Lu Yunkai listened, but didn't take it seriously.

Although he never went to college in his previous life, he did attend a technical secondary school. The school seemed to have some school motto, but he didn't remember it at all, nor did he care about it.

What values ​​do each college promote, what kind of people do they train... He really doesn't care about such clichés and empty talk. He didn't believe that the headmaster of Slytherin could force all his students to serve Voldemort.

After all, it is up to each individual to be led in by the master and practice.

Finally the chanting of the Sorting Hat ended and the sorting ceremony officially began.

Each student was called by Professor McGonagall, then sat on an armchair, put on the sorting hat, and was quickly or slowly sorted into the four houses.

Lu Yunfa in the audience felt as if the student made a decision the moment the hat was put on. As for some of the slower ones, they are just for fun. For example, Ron, whom he just met, almost made him cry when the Sorting Hat said that he was going to be sent to Slytherin.

There seems to be only one exception: Lu Yunkai’s friend, Harry Potter.

The Sorting Hat was torn between Gryffindor and Slytherin for a long time, and finally listened to Harry's own choice and sent him to Gryffindor.

And when he was sorted into Gryffindor, the entire Gryffindor house stood up and applauded him.

As expected, you have to become famous early.

With such emotion, finally.

"Lu Yunkai."

Professor McGonagall read his name.

Lu Yunkai took a deep breath, calmed down his slightly nervous mood, sat in an armchair and put on the sorting hat under the gaze of everyone in the room.

A strange chill poured down from the top of his head like cold water.

"Huh? Oriental? And a strange Oriental!" Lu Yunkai finally heard the vague voice of the Sorting Hat clearly.

"Am I weird?" Lu Yunkai answered.

"You have some secrets, but that's okay. Slytherin!"

The Sorting Hat made a decision very simply.

Quiet.

No one in the audience applauded, they were all looking at the Sorting Hat, as if no one believed in the Sorting Hat's decision.

"What? Don't you believe my judgment? There is no smarter hat in the world than me!"

The Sorting Hat seemed to feel the suspicion in the eyes directed at it, and said proudly.

"Um."

Finally, Professor McGonagall, who was presiding over the ceremony, came to his senses and took the lead in applauding.

The professors sitting on the rostrum also began to applaud, just like other teenagers did when they were sorted into colleges.

But the applause in the lobby was still sparse.

Especially Slytherin House, which was supposed to welcome newcomers and applaud the loudest, Lu Yunkai didn't see anyone applauding.

Almost everyone was looking at him with disbelief.

What's wrong? Am I not worthy? It’s good that I don’t dislike you dark wizards, huh.

Lu Yunkai came to the Slytherin table feeling a little bored and sat at the farthest seat.

The one who was assigned before him was the blond boy who disliked him at the train station. Lu Yunkai just learned his name, Draco Malfoy.

"How come the Mudbloods were sorted into Slytherin? Is the Sorting Hat an old fool?" Draco muttered in a loud voice.

Lu Yunkai knew that Draco was telling him what he wanted. Although he didn't understand what mudblood meant, he could guess from the literal meaning that it was not a good word.

He also instantly understood why he was not treated favorably by the Slytherin people.

Bloodline!

This made Lu Yunkai a little worried.

If you just have poor grades and a poor family, you can still change it through your own efforts. If something that cannot be changed like your bloodline becomes the reason for being discriminated against, will you still be bullied to death by this group of people in school for so many years? ?

what to do? Otherwise, just pretend?

Lu Yunkai made a decision in an instant.

"You think you know more than the Yard Hat?"

He raised his head and glanced at Draco with his chin.

Lu Yunkai's voice was not loud, but not quiet either. Not only Draco, but also the two boys sitting next to him who had just been assigned to Slytherin, as well as several senior Slytherin students sitting not far away. heard it.

Those people were all stunned.

If you think about it, that's right.

If it were true that there was something wrong with the Sorting Hat, it would not have sent the Malfoys to Gryffindor and the Weasleys to Slytherin!

A yellow-skinned Oriental was sent to Slytherin, where blood is the most important thing. The Sorting Hat would definitely be very cautious about this kind of thing, right?

But it made a decision almost instantly.

This...is there really anything to say?

"Our Slytherin house is the most united in the entire Hogwarts. Since Lu Yunkai is already a Slytherin, we should be friendly and don't let others see the joke." A senior female student sitting not far away He spoke.

"Yes, senior." Lu Yunkai nodded to the senior female student, glanced at Draco who was calmed by him again, and stopped talking.

At this moment, a girl behind Lu Yunkai also completed the sorting.

"Slytherin!"

No sooner had the Sorting Hat fallen on her head than the decision came.

This time, the applause from the students of Slytherin House was obviously much louder.

Lu Yunkai also applauded enthusiastically and actively asked the girl to sit down.

"We meet again." Lu Yunkai said to her with a smile.

This was exactly the Greengrass girl he had met before at Bojinbok's magic shop.

"...Well, what a coincidence." Daphne smiled a little awkwardly.

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai saw that Daphne didn't seem to want to talk to him anymore, so he stopped talking.

After Harry Potter, a big name, and an Easterner who was assigned to Slytherin House, which values ​​blood most, the sorting ceremony finally returned to calm, and the thirty-nine freshmen were assigned to new houses.

Professor McGonagall, who had finished presiding over the sorting ceremony, finally returned to her empty seat on the podium and sat down. Lu Yunkai's attention finally shifted from the sorting hat to the people who had been sitting on the podium behind.

He saw Professor Sprout who delivered the letter to the beer hall, and the big man Hagrid.

Professor Sprout saw Lu Yunkai looking at him and nodded to him with a smile.

At this time, the old man with long white hair and white beard sitting in the middle of the podium stood up.

Lu Yunkai had already seen his picture in the snacks on the train, and knew that he was the current principal of Hogwarts, known as the most powerful magician of our time, Albus Dumbledore.

Is this the principal's opening speech?

However.

"Idiot! Crying! Residue! Damn it! Anyone who doesn't want to suffer pain and die miserably in an accident, please do not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor. Students are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest. Okay, let's start the banquet!"

After saying that, he waved his magic wand.

The originally empty dining table was suddenly filled with food.

The auditorium suddenly became lively.

Lu Yunkai was a little surprised.

Just two sentences to finish it? Does the principal know that everyone is hungry, so he doesn't waste time?

What a nice guy!

Without saying a word, Lu Yunkai picked up a fried chicken leg and took a bite.

Mmm, it smells so good. Much tastier than those snacks on the train.

Eat first! As for the matter of being sorted into Slytherin, everything will be straight when it comes to the bridge!
