Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

On the stage, the last freshman in the sorting ceremony was sorted into Hufflepuff. Professor McGonagall folded the parchment, took the hat and chair and left the auditorium.

At this time, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the center, stood up. This is a scene that will be experienced in every opening ceremony.

"Welcome to our new classmates." Dumbledore said with his loud voice, "You must have discovered this time that the students of Durmstrang will have a pleasant school year with us this year.

"

"However, now is not a good time to make a speech. Let's eat happily together."

There was a burst of cheers in the auditorium, and he sat back on his chair. The students looked expectantly at the empty plates in front of them.

Delicious food seemed to fall from the sky. There were plenty of beef, pies, vegetables, fruits and cups of pumpkin juice on the table.

Although Louis ate a little on the train, the awkward atmosphere at that time did not make him eat much. But Raven beside him was surprised by the magic of Hogwarts.

No magic can create food out of thin air. As a princess of the Thor Society, she must know this, but the food in front of her overturned her knowledge.

"These foods are all made by the house elves in the kitchen below Hogwarts." Louis felt that he needed to educate his biological sister about these things.

"House elves? Then they are too pitiful."

Raven has a kind heart, but Louis didn't expect her to say such things. This kind of thinking coincides with Hermione's.

"This is their job. Of course, they won't feel sorry for themselves."

Louis tried his best to explain this kind of thing in a non-discriminatory tone. After all, when she was in the Thor Society, her life was taken care of by the housekeeper and was not controlled by any house elves.

"I still don't think it's possible." Ruiwen shook her head, "Brother, do they get paid?"

For a moment, Louis didn't know how to explain it to her, but opposite, Hermione and Nick were continuing to discuss matters about the Sorting Hat.

"What did you say before the sorting?" Hermione asked. Harry and Ron beside her both raised their heads and looked at Nick, "It was about the warning from the Sorting Hat."

"Oh, yes, I have heard him warn before. It was a riot of magical creatures deep in the Forbidden Forest. It was about hundreds of years ago. At that time, even Dumbledore was not born yet. It said at that time

The same thing as today.”

"It can be tied to the fruit tree of Ji Mao Ji."

"Excuse me?" Nick turned around and faced Ron, whose mouth was full of food. Hermione on the side looked at him with disgust.

"I didn't hear it clearly, could you please repeat it again?"

"I mean." Ron swallowed the food and calmed down for a while, "But it's just a hat, it doesn't know how to sense danger."

"I don't know about that." Nick shook his head. "No one can understand the working principle of the Sorting Hat, but it is a hat with independent thoughts. Maybe it is because it has been staying in the principal's office and listening to the chatter of the old principals.

It must be infected."

"Yes, but it says that we can become friends with people from other houses." Harry turned his head and looked at the long table of Slytherin House. He saw Malfoy showing off his rank to the Durmstrang people at the same table.

Long badge.

"That's absolutely impossible..."

"Okay, but I think you should be alert to the Sorting Hat's reminder." Nick was a little helpless. He also knew how much grudge Gryffindor House had against the Slytherins.

"Peaceful cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win results. You see, there is no conflict between us ghosts. Barrow and I have a particularly good relationship."

"Oh, that's because you're afraid of it," Ron said loudly, fearing that the Slytherin across the table wouldn't hear.

"Ron!" Hermione scolded, and she glared at Ron fiercely, but the guy didn't seem to notice her reminder.

"Afraid? No." Nick's tone was a little annoyed, "I, Sir Nicholas Porpington, have noble blood flowing in my body, how could I be afraid..."

"Blood?" Ron asked, "Do you still have blood on your body?"

"That's enough, Ron."

But Hermione's scolding didn't give Ron much warning. The almost headless Nick had already floated up, and his face looked very ugly.

It was rude to joke about ghosts on dead people, and of course Ron didn't realize this.

"Nick, Ron, he didn't mean it..."

Hermione wanted to apologize to Nick, but the ghost didn't appreciate it. It had already floated to Raven and was chatting with the curious little girl.

"Look what you did." Hermione said angrily.

"What? Am I not even qualified to ask a question?"

Ron was still trying his best to swallow the food in his mouth. He still didn't realize where he was wrong.

Low EQ: Do you have blood in your body?

High EQ: It turns out you are the famous Sir Nicholas.

"Oh, forget it, forget it."

Hermione said irritably, but Ron only had food in his eyes. He muttered: "That's baffling." Then he started to deal with the pumpkin pie in his bowl.

Harry took a non-intervening attitude towards their quarrel. The bickering between these two guys was too common. Instead of trying to persuade them, he would rather enjoy the food in front of him.

When most students had filled their bellies, Dumbledore stood up from his seat again. This time, the entire venue became quiet again.

"Okay, everyone must have enjoyed a delicious meal. Next, I will make a routine announcement about this year's new school year."

"First-year students are not allowed to enter the forbidden forest behind the hunting ground. I think our senior students should be very clear about this."

"Also, Mr. Filch, he has told me more than four hundred and sixty times, asking you not to perform magic in public places in the corridors, and there are many other regulations, which are posted on the door of his office."

"This year, we have new changes in the teaching bench. I regret to inform you that Professor Hagrid from the Care of Magical Creatures class will be absent for a period of time because he is working outside. However, we will have a new substitute this year.

Teacher, she will be acting as the Career of Magical Creatures class for a period of time."

"Let us welcome, Professor Meserys Lestrange!"

"What? Oh, my God!"

Gryffindor burst into cheers, especially Harry and the others, while Louis shook his head in shock.

Messelis took off her hat and greeted everyone humbly.

Perhaps because of her low popularity, Meseles' appearance did not cause a big sensation, but they were very excited when they heard that it was Hagrid who was substituted.

"There is another one, and I am also pleased to introduce Professor Dorelos Umbridge, who will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher"
