Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

Chapter 42 Hogwarts split?

The slit next to the brim of the Sorting Hat opened like a mouth, and the Sorting Hat sang loudly:

"A long time ago I had a new hat,

Hogwarts hadn't been built yet,

The four founders of Noble Academy..."

Introducing the experience of the four giants in founding Hogwarts, describing the different qualities valued by the four houses and its own tasks for sorting students into houses. This is the content of the annual sorting song.

Teachers and students are also used to it.

But after singing these, the Sorting Hat sang loudly:

"Though I am destined to divide you,

But I'm afraid this isn't the right thing to do.

Although I must fulfill my duties,

Divide the freshmen each year into four parts,

But I worry about such classification,

It would lead to the collapse I feared.

Oh, know the danger, read the signs,

The lessons of history give us warnings,

Our Hogwarts is in danger,

Enemies outside the school are watching.

We must be closely united internally,

Otherwise everything will fall apart from within.

I have told you plainly,

I have sounded the alarm for you...

Now let’s start sorting.”

After hat finished speaking, he became motionless again.

There was applause everywhere, but it was mixed with whispers. This was the first time in Moriarty's memory.

"It's a bit off topic this year, isn't it?" Jericho whispered, with deep worry in his eyes.

"We must unite closely, otherwise we will fall apart from within." Moriarty said seriously, and the Sorting Hat made it very clear.

The internal hidden danger is undoubtedly people like Larpo.

Moriarty swept across the opposite side lightly, Larpo was also looking at him, and then Larpo turned his attention to the freshmen team.

As Professor McGonagall announced the name of the first new student loudly, the sorting began.

A little boy stumbled forward, put the sorting hat on his head, and was sorted into Gryffindor.

Freshmen were assigned to the four major colleges one after another, and each time there was warm applause.

Finally, Moriarty heard a familiar name: Luna Lovegood!

Luna walked up like a sleepwalker, with a happy smile on her face, and was sorted into Ravenclaw.

Moriarty couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw Hermione affectionately greeting Luna to sit next to her.

The elementary school girl who was a freshman last year has grown into a senior who leads the new students this year.

After a few more people passed by, Professor McGonagall called out a name: "Astoria Greengrass!"

At the other end of the Slytherin table - the people around Larpo immediately burst into cheers.

It was all done by Daphne, Pansy, and Shabini.

They all know that Astoria is the youngest daughter of the Greengrass family, and this family is Gamp's subordinates.

Astoria put on the Sorting Hat and her white hair attracted the attention of many people.

People on Moriarty's side were talking a lot, and most of them said that the blood curse of the Greengrass family prevented Astoria from living until she was 30 years old.

"For now, going to Gryffindor is your best choice. What? You have to go to Slytherin? It's because of him again! Okay, okay, I'm used to it."

The Sorting Hat said in Astoria's ear. He didn't know what was going on in the little girl's head, and his tone became casual.

Finally the hat shouted: "Slytherin~"

The people around Larpo shouted loudly, and Daphne stood up and clapped her hands happily.

Larpo himself did not react. To him, a little girl was nothing, even if her family was under Gamp.

Two more freshmen were sorted into Hufflepuff and Gryffindor.

Only the last new student is left.

The old students were no longer interested, and the conversation became louder and louder.

However, Professor McGonagall was reluctant to read out the name of the last new student, and some people still discovered it.

"What's going on?" Lilith looked at Professor McGonagall with big bright eyes: "The way she looked made me think Voldemort was written on the freshman list."

Moriarty also noticed something unusual, and Dumbledore, who was sitting on the professor's chair, even asked softly: "Minerva, is there something wrong?"

Professor McGonagall shook her head, put away the horror on her face, took a deep breath and read out the name of the last new student.

"Lion-Hearted Pendragon!"

A tall blond boy raised his head and walked to the Sorting Hat. His hair was combed on both sides. With a warm smile on his face, he put the Sorting Hat on his head.

Almost instantly, the Sorting Hat shouted: "Gryffindor!!!"

When Lionheart walked towards the Gryffindor table, the auditorium was still silent. Everyone in Europe knew the surname Pendragon.

The famous King Arthur.

His full name is Arthur Pendragon!

And King Arthur is also called the Lion-Hearted King.

Both teachers and students were staring at Lion Heart, watching him walk past the Lion Dean's table. His eyes swept over every little lion and every empty seat.

Finally, Lionheart chose to sit down at the head of the Lion Court, and he conjured up a golden chair.

Professor McGonagall wanted to stop it but saw that Dumbledore didn't say anything, so she gave up.

It took about 3 seconds for people to react after Lionheart sat down. The auditorium instantly turned into a vegetable market, and the students started discussing excitedly.

Such a scene reminded the professors of when Moriarty entered school five years ago.

The same was true for students at that time.

The professors are wondering what happened to Hogwarts and why it has attracted so many "big shots" in recent years.

The Slytherin family five years ago.

This year's Pendragon family.

Which one is not a top family.

Only in comparison with it in terms of fame, the second-year "savior" Harry Potter has also become eclipsed.

The last time stars shone like this was when the first group of pure-blood families had the title of true pure-blood family.

And that group of pure-blooded young wizards also founded the 28 pure-blooded holy clans.

Now, even the descendants of King Arthur have come out!

He chose to become the head of Gryffindor without any explanation.

Many people want to accuse Lionheart of not being worthy of sitting in that seat, but they don't know how to say it.

Lionheart, on the other hand, looked at Larpo diagonally across the corner and nodded slightly.

This move was caught by Moriarty, and he knew in his heart that this Lionheart was probably the guy Gamp had hired to fight him in the ring.

The intention is to divide Hogwarts and turn Hogwarts into Gump's back garden.

"It seems that Gamp has some power that we don't know about. The names recorded in that book are not all of Gamp's men."

Moriarty said to Lilith.

Lilith nodded solemnly.

That book is a magic book that her family has kept for generations, and most of the families in it have returned to Gamp's hands.

But there are things Moriarty and Lilith don't know.

Such as Red Dragon and Tom Pig.

And now King Arthur's descendants have appeared.

Lilith felt heavy pressure.

Even if Gamp calls Merlin's successor now, Lilith won't be surprised.

But Lily found that Moriarty's face was still filled with a confident smile, and the gloom in her heart gradually dissipated.

Moriarty will naturally not be afraid, Hogwarts is his home court.

Gamp himself also graduated from Slytherin House.

The head of Slytherin has no reason to be afraid of a graduate of the Snake House.

This calmness also calmed Dumbledore's slightly flustered heart.

He shouted: "Welcome - whoever you are! Now let's eat! There is plenty of time for speeches, but not now."

In an instant, delicious food appeared on the table, and the students enjoyed it happily. Even if something big happens next, at least their principal Dumbledore is still the lovely old man, right?

After dinner, Dumbledore announced a few things: "There is a big event this year that will last until the end of the term."

"I think all of you who are well-informed know that, yes, the Triwizard Tournament!"

Jericho immediately raised his hand and asked: "Headmaster, is the Quidditch Academy Cup still going on!"

"It will be held," Dumbledore said affirmatively: "You will compete with the Quidditch teams of the other two schools. The players' data and performance will be recorded. This is also one of the selections for the Warriors."

Jericho immediately clapped hard. Last year's five-school league suspended Quidditch, which made him unwilling for a long time.

"Sir, now we can show off our skills, the dream team is reorganized!" he said ambitiously.

Dumbledore added: "Our Professor Lupin went to St. Mungo's Hospital for treatment, so I am honored to announce our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Dolores Umbridge!"

At this point, the castle door was pushed open, and a short, fat woman wearing a pink cardigan walked in.

Behind her was a wizard and an old witch.

The students quickly recognized this woman as Umbridge.

"Oh, what a tasteful sweater."

Some little snakes sneered.

But the senior little snake set his sights on the wizard who walked in.

"Sir, he is very strong." Marcus said solemnly to Moriarty.

Moriarty nodded, he also discovered it, and...

"Why is that tall black-haired wizard so similar to Bella's husband?"

Moriarty said to Lilith, who was stunned for a moment and remembered that he was talking about the dead Rodolphus Lestrange.

"There are indeed some similarities," Lilith took a breath, "The Lestrange family has lost its inheritance in England, but the main family is in France! Isn't that right?"

"And the witch, have you found it?" Moriarty's eyes flashed with seriousness.

"I only found her talking about an old witch." Jericho wanted to make a joke.

Soldaya immediately told: "This joke must not be made casually. It seems that you have not read "History of Magic" properly. Her name is Bathilda Bagshot!"

"Professor Dumbledore's great-aunt."

The group of people immediately turned their attention to Dumbledore, who stared at Bathilda Bagshot in surprise and slowly sat down.

"Gamp actually found her too."

"Academically, apart from Nicole Flamel, who can hold her in a stable position, she has the highest seniority."

Moriarty sighed, "What a wonderful show."

First there was Larbo, and then there was the new King Arthur.

Gamp strengthened the pure-blood family and convened the Lestrange family.

Then Bathilda Bagshot was invited to resist Nicoléme's influence.

This luxurious lineup takes turns to appear, which is really lively.

Without Moriarty's support, Old Deng really couldn't stop these people.

Umbridge walked to the center of the auditorium at this time, she turned around and said proudly: "Well, I must say, it's great to be back at Hogwarts!"

She grinned, showing off her sharp teeth, "It's so nice to see these happy little faces looking up at me!"

The students who knew her details almost vomited.

"But I have to say, this is a big year!" she said with emphasis.

"Let me solemnly introduce to you that the person next to me...Mr. Ramdi Lestrange, a pure-blood wizard from France, will reveal the Goblet of Fire!"
