Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

There were faint sounds of people coming from the door on the right. The other senior students of Hogwarts must have arrived first. However, Professor McGonagall did not take them directly inside, but led them to the opposite side of the hall.

in an empty room.

Louis looked at the empty room. A group of eleven-year-old children stood neatly, each of them looking nervous.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," said the middle-aged and elderly woman named Professor McGonagall. "The dinner is about to begin, but first-year students, before you take your seats, you will first have a small test."

"Test?" Some freshmen who didn't understand the situation whispered.

"This test is the sorting ceremony." Professor McGonagall paused and continued, "I think some of you have some understanding before coming here. Hogwarts is divided into four major houses, Gryffindor,

Lytlin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw."

"These four colleges have all produced magicians with excellent results. Your various performances in school will add or subtract points for your respective colleges. At the end of each school year, the college with the highest score will win the college cup. This is

The highest honor for students in every college.”

Her eyes swept over every little wizard present. After confirming that everything was correct, she motioned for everyone to wait for a moment before leaving the room.

"It's cool, isn't it?"

At some point, a silver-haired girl appeared next to Louis. He turned around and saw that this girl seemed to have an arrogant temperament that was different from ordinary people, and her white cheeks gave her the appearance of a goddess, and her long hair was like a goddess.

The waist was very different from the Luna he knew.

"Astoria Greengrass." The girl introduced herself first, "I think you should know the Greengrass family, right. I wonder who you are?"

"Louis Wiggins." Louis looked at Astoria, and somehow he didn't like the tone of her voice.

"Wiggins? Are you Muggle-born?"

Astoria couldn't help but frown. Maybe it was an inherent problem in the pure-blood family. Naturally, this girl would look down on Muggle-born people.

Louis did not answer, but chose to remain silent. Astoria was indeed pretty enough among her peers, and her silver hair added to her temperament, but this behavior aroused some disgust in Louis.

At this time, Ginny appeared next to Louis at the right time. She stared at Astoria with some displeasure. After all, Ginny had heard about the previous conversation.

The atmosphere was a little tense. Suddenly, the door was opened again, and Professor McGonagall, who had left not long ago, returned to the house.

"Now, please line up in single file." Professor McGonagall said to the freshmen, "Follow me."

Astoria snorted, turned around and walked to the front of the line. Louis and Ginny stood in the middle of the line, while Luna, whom he met on the train, jumped happily to the end of the line.

The group of people followed Professor McGonagall through the hall and entered through the opposite door.

Louis looked up and saw that the Hogwarts dining room looked particularly huge. Looking from below, the dome could barely be seen.

Students from other grades have taken their seats at the four long tables, and above their heads there are countless candles floating in the air, lighting up the hall brightly.

Among them were the three Harrys whom Louis was familiar with. Seeing them, Louis nodded slightly towards them. It seemed that he had changed the plot a little.

There were a large number of gold plates and goblets placed on the table, but there was no food on these plates.

Professor McGonagall brought them to a chair, and Louis saw an old wizard's hat placed on the chair.

To be honest, the wizard's hat was a bit too shabby, and no normal person would choose to wear it, but Louis found that it seemed that the eyes of all the students in the restaurant were focused on this hat.

This should be the Sorting Hat, Louis thought to himself.

At this moment, the hat suddenly spoke, and Louis discovered that there was a crack in the front of the hat, which seemed to be its mouth:

"You may think I'm not pretty enough, but you can only believe your own eyes. If you can find a more beautiful hat than mine, you can do whatever you want with me."

"You can be a brave and upright Gryffindor, a loyal and righteous Hufflepuff, a wise and talented Ravenclaw, or a shrewd and sincere Slytherin, because I can understand what you are thinking, because I am the Sorting House

Use a magic hat."

.....

The Sorting Hat spoke word by word, as if speaking in a singing tone.

"According to my brothers, it says different words every year, as if it is reminding someone." Ginny whispered in Louis' ear, "It's amazing."

Louis nodded, his eyes constantly staring at the Sorting Hat. He was still looking forward to which house he would go to.

Professor McGonagall had a long list in her hand at some point. She held the list made of parchment and said:

"Now I start calling names, and whoever is called will put on a hat and wait for distribution."

"Colin Creevey!"

A short little boy walked forward tremblingly, looking quite nervous. He seemed to have a camera on his chest.

"Gryffindor!"

After the Sorting Hat touched his head, he spoke loudly, which startled the boy, and the people on the long table on the far right applauded happily, which was the seat of Gryffindor.

After Colin ran to Gryffindor's seat, he himself breathed a sigh of relief.

There were fewer and fewer people in the front, and Astoria, the beautiful girl who had been talking to Louis before, was unsurprisingly assigned to Slytherin.

"Ginny Weasley!" Professor McGonagall shouted.

"It's my turn." Ginny winked at Louis, exhaled, and walked forward.

When the sorting hat fell on her head, she was silent for a while and then suddenly said:

"A little girl from the Weasley family? Well... there have been many Weasleys before, okay, no need to say more, I know, Gryffindor!"

Ginny happily ran to the Gryffindor table, surrounded by everyone, and gestured to Louis, who was still in the team.

"Louis Wiggins!"

When Louis' name was called, he suddenly became nervous. He pretended to be calm and walked forward. The people below held their breath, and Professor McGonagall put the Sorting Hat on his head.

"Another problem, man." The Sorting Hat seemed a little embarrassed, "Your loyalty to your friends seems to allow you to go to Hufflepuff, but you also have the wisdom of Ravenclaw."

"However, I seem to have seen something else, maybe Slytherin? Interesting, very interesting."

"Slytherin? How could it be Slytherin?" Louis thought unconsciously in his mind.

"How can it not be Slytherin? Boy, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking." The Sorting Hat suddenly said, "I am the Sorting Hat, I can see through what is in your mind."

"I can say that your soul is very interesting, complicated and difficult to understand. It can be said that this is the biggest problem I have ever seen, even more difficult than Mr. Potter last year."

Harry lowered his head unconsciously when the Sorting Hat mentioned that he was sitting under it.

"Okay, I think I know. If that's the case, then this is the academy that's most suitable for you."

"Gryffindor!"
