Chapter 120 Women will only affect the speed at which I draw my wand.

After Professor McGonagall led the freshmen into the auditorium, the sorting ceremony began.

The first-year students watched uneasily as Professor McGonagall placed the Sorting Hat on the chair in front of the guest of honor. Many of them got news from the Weasley brothers who were selling prank props: a three-headed dog was going to be dealt with during the sorting ceremony!

It was not until Professor McGonagall explained that they only needed to put the Sorting Hat on their heads that the little wizards relaxed.

Elvis gently touched Hermione’s shoulder with his hand, motioned the girl to look at the new students, and said teasingly:”Look, they look nervous like you last year.”

Hermione rolled her eyes and ignored him..

After the Sorting Hat sang, Professor McGonagall took out a piece of parchment. Just as she was about to read the name of the first new student from the list, Lockhart suddenly stood up.

He covered his mouth with his left hand and coughed twice. Everyone in the auditorium suddenly focused their attention on him.

That’s it, everyone was looking at me, and Lockhart’s smile grew wider, with a honey blush.

Lockhart loudly suggested to Professor McGonagall:”Professor McGonagall, I think I would be happy to help you complete this sorting ceremony. You see, you are so old, there is no need to stand for so long and read so many words.” A long list of names. I’ll be happy to help you.”

Upon hearing Lockhart’s words, the older cat girl’s face darkened. No woman would like to be called older. What’s more, the sorting ceremony is usually held by the vice-principal. What does Lockhart mean by this sentence? Does he want to be promoted to vice-principal after he just came to the school as a professor?

Dumbledore, who was sitting in the main seat, said:”Professor Lockhart, you have graduated a long time ago, and you may have forgotten that the sorting ceremony is usually held by the vice-chancellor. I am sorry, although I also want to make some changes, But we still have to respect tradition”

“Okay, okay. Lockhart touched his head in confusion and sat back in his chair awkwardly.

When everyone came to their senses, Dumbledore signaled to Professor McGonagall that the sorting ceremony could continue. Professor

McGonagall picked up the list and read out the new students one by one. name

“Paris albert.”

A tall girl ran over quickly and almost knocked over the high stool.

Ten seconds later, the Sorting Hat shouted:”Gryffindor!”

Amidst the cheers and applause, the little witch walked towards the Gryffindor table with a blushing face.

……

“Next up, Colin Creevey.”

A thin boy wearing glasses walked up and put on the sorting hat.

“Gryffindor!”

There was applause in the auditorium.

Colin excitedly walked to the Gryffindor table, squeezed in next to Harry, and chatted with him excitedly.

……

“Luna Lovegood!”

Luna jumped out of the freshman team. She stood next to the chair and looked at the Sorting Hat curiously.

When no one expected it, she suddenly took out her wand and poked the Sorting Hat’s body.

The Sorting Hat yelled:”Don’t, don’t poke! It’s so itchy.”

Despite what it said, Luna poked the top of it with her wand.

“Little Grit, stop this rude girl.”The Sorting Hat shouted at Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and looked at this scene unhappily. She had a premonition that another troublemaker would join Gryffindor this year.

She quickly walked up and took the Sorting Hat. Get up, then push Luna into the chair and put the hat on her little head.

Luna finally calmed down. She stared blankly and looked ahead blankly.

After two minutes, the Sorting Hat shouted angrily :”Ravenclaw!”

It swore that it never wanted to see this little witch again.

Everyone applauded, bu

t not as enthusiastically as before. Luna’s weird behavior scared many people.

But Professor McGonagall’s brows relaxed a little. Fortunately, this weird The little witch was not sorted into Gryffindor.

Luna took off her hat casually and ran happily to the Ravenclaw table.

Hermione moved her buttocks to make a place for her. Luna was obedient. Sitting down on the ground.

Hermione pursed her lips. At this moment, she looked very much like Professor McGonagall.

She originally planned to lecture Luna, but finally gave up the idea.

The sorting ceremony continued, with Ginny as A standard Weasley, like Ron, she was determined to be sorted into Gryffindor as soon as her head touched the brim of the sorting hat.

Her brothers stood up and applauded happily.

When the last freshman was sorted into Hufflepah After the surprise, the sorting ceremony finally ended.

Professor Dumbledore stood up as usual to prepare a speech

“It’s great to see everyone back at Hogwarts,” Dumbledore said with a smile.”Of course, I’m also happy to have new faces joining our family. This year we have a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor –

Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart.”

Lockhart stood up and bowed to everyone gracefully, with a trademark smile on his face.

The witches at the long table applauded enthusiastically, especially Parvati and Gryffindor. Lavender, the two of them were particularly excited.

Elvis clapped softly in agreement on the surface, but in his heart he was complaining: It seems that they are going to create a Lockhart support club in the school again. I only hope that they can do it this semester. Disband my support club.

Ives sighed. In the last school year, witches ogled him wherever he went. This has seriously affected his normal study.

Women will only affect my ability to draw the wand. At a rapid speed, his eyes gradually became sharper.

It wasn’t until everyone’s enthusiasm – especially Parvati and Lavender – cooled down that Dumbledore continued:”I am honored to invite this famous writer , a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class, to serve as a professor”

“I hope everyone can learn more in the new professor’s class. Well, I think everyone is hungry. I only have one last sentence to say.”

“Eat it!”Dumbledore waved his wand, and all kinds of delicacies appeared on the long table.

Ives used a fork to take a piece of lamb chop from the plate and put it on his own plate. He said to Hermione next to him:”Do you know? There is one thing I particularly like about Professor Dumbledore.

Hermione looked at him confused,”What?””

“That is, he never talks nonsense.” Ives chewed mutton in his mouth and muttered in a low voice:”Except for the fact that he is always the Riddler, which makes me unhappy.”

When eating, Luna always wants to use her whimsical ideas to match the food, such as putting hot sauce in the apple pie.

This makes Hermione a little confused, and she has to stop Luna’s strange behavior and help her by the way. Eat well.

It is worth mentioning that Hermione also wanted to persuade Ives to try French escargots, and Ives was very grateful. In addition to British dishes and simple frying, the house elves at Hogwarts Apart from roasting, the other food made was hard to describe.

Although Hermione kept saying how delicious the baked snails she had eaten in France during the summer vacation were, Elvis remained unmoved.

During the chaotic school song session After that, everyone got up and walked towards the lounges of their respective colleges. The prefects were busy leading the new students. After Luna said goodbye to the two, she followed the Ravenclaw freshmen team at the end.

In Avis When he and Hermione walked out of the auditorium, Professor Flitwick stopped them,”Avis, Professor Dumbledore wants you to go to the principal’s office.”
