hogwarts blast

What happened outside the castle did not affect the joyful atmosphere inside the auditorium at all.

It can't be said that there is no impact at all. The three brothers Percy, George and Fred all looked worried.

They were not worried about Ron's safety or whether Ron would be expelled from Hogwarts.

If they could go back in time, they would really like to go back to when Ron was born and strangle him to death in the cradle.

What they were worried about was their father, Arthur Weasley.

Their father works in the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items at the Ministry of Magic. His main job is to prevent magicians from harming Muggles by casting spells on Muggle items, and to reverse harm that has already occurred.

Just imagine, Arthur Weasley, the head of the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Articles, and his family violated the laws he made...

It would be better if Mr. Weasley is not expelled from the Ministry of Magic.

It would be even worse if Ron allowed Muggles to see the tank flying in the sky when he was driving the flying tank.

From the day the Wizarding Secrecy Law was born, wizards who break this law will usually be severely punished.

No matter how worried the three of them are, the sorting ceremony must continue.

In previous years, Professor McGonagall usually presided over the Sorting Ceremony for freshmen, but now Professor McGonagall has to deal with Harry and Ron's affairs, so this task falls on Professor Flitwick.

At this time, Professor Flitwick was standing on the steps a little higher than the freshmen, trying hard to stand on tiptoes and put the sorting hat on a pale-skinned little witch.

"Hmm? The Lovegood kids? I really enjoyed reading your family's publication of The Quibbler."

"Thank you," Luna Lovegood's voice sounded particularly ethereal, "You have been in Hogwarts for so long, have you ever seen the existence of a Bent-Horned Snorlax?"

One person and one hat chatted endlessly about the topic of the Bent-Horned Snorlax, and Professor Flitwick had to cough slightly to remind the Sorting Hat that they were still in the sorting ceremony.

"Ravenclaw!"

The Sorting Hat finally remembered that he still had business to attend to.

Soon after, Professor Flitwick called out a name that Kyle had only heard earlier in the day.

"Rolf Scamander!"

Kyle's lips curved into a smile.

Although he didn't know what the feud was between Mr. Newt and his father, he was sure to have Rolf as a friend based on Mr. Newt's magical zoo.

As soon as the Sorting Hat touched Rolf's head, the result was announced loudly.

"Hufflepuff!"

Looking at a certain little devil smiling at him at the long Hufflepuff table, Rolf's expression froze.

He suddenly felt that Hufflepuff didn't smell good.

Soon the sorting ceremony ended, and Dumbledore and the two deans returned to the auditorium before the dinner began.

Following the three of them was the disgraced troublemaking duo.

When the Gryffindor little lions heard from the two of them that they would not be expelled, and Gryffindor would not be deducted points, but would only need to be locked up for a few days, the Gryffindor table immediately boiled.

.

Harry and Ron were treated like heroes.

Only Ron's three brothers were still livid.

George and Fred each grabbed one of Ron's ears fiercely.

"If you can't get into platform nine and three-quarters, why don't you write a letter to the professor at the school for help?"

"Sneakly drive the family's flying car, Ronald, are you capable?"

Percy looked indifferently at Ron who was being beaten violently, and did not step forward to stop him. On the contrary, he wanted to go up and make up for it.

The atmosphere here at Hufflepuff is much more harmonious.

Because he was from the last few houses, when Rolf came to the long table of Hufflepuff, he tragically found that only the little devil Kyle had an empty seat to sit.

He could only sit down beside the little devil tremblingly.

Until he found out that Kyle's last name was Dumbledore, and heard some of Kyle's glorious deeds from the people next to him, Rolf immediately changed his attitude, acting like a little fanboy.

Very good, it seems that the fifth Father-Sorrow is about to be born.

…

After everyone had finished eating, Dumbledore stood up and walked to the front of the podium.

"Welcome!" said Dumbledore, his beard sparkling in the light of the candles. "Welcome to Hogwarts for the new school year!"

"This year, there is a new teacher joining our team. I think you all have guessed who he is." Dumbledore winked mischievously.

"Let us welcome Professor Gilderoy Lockhart, who has graciously agreed to fill the Defense Against the Dark Arts vacancy."

The dining table below immediately erupted into a burst of enthusiastic noise, which was also mixed with the screams of countless female students.

Lockhart stood up from his seat and waved to everyone.

He wore a robe as blue as the forget-me-not flowers, which matched his blue eyes.

The pointed wizard hat is playfully tilted on his curly hair.

The appearance is quite good, but I don't know what the strength is. Kyle doesn't want to meet another Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who was as defeated as Quirrell last year.

"As a former student of Hogwarts, I am honored to return to this alma mater after so many years of absence as a professor."

Lockhart smiled and then sat back in his seat.

After simply announcing some of the precautions that would be emphasized every year, Dumbledore announced the end of the dinner and left the auditorium.

There is no singing of the school song.

Kyle guessed that Dumbledore had gone to clean up the aftermath of the troublesome duo.

After all, Mr. Weasley was responsible for the cloaking device of the flying tank they drove.

To be honest, Mr. Weasley's level of Disguise Charm is not as good as those four little wizards who often travel at night.

Therefore, the invisibility device he installed on the tank was not very reliable and failed from time to time. When the troublemaking duo let the tank take off, there was a high probability that it would be seen by many Muggles.

If Dumbledore hadn't been responsible for this big trouble, Mr. Weasley would have been fired by the Ministry of Magic.

…

Although he was scolded by his three brothers in the auditorium, Ron still felt that it was exciting and heroic for them to drive a tank to Hogwarts.

Harry felt a little ashamed, because he had heard from Hermione that this might get Mr. Weasley into trouble.

"Ron, I don't think we should be complacent."

"Don't worry Harry, it's okay." Ron waved his hand nonchalantly, and then boasted to the students around him about their thrilling adventure today.

George and Fred watched with cold eyes as Ron was surrounded by the crowd and boasting.

They had already written to their mother explaining the good things Ron had done today.

Although there were two criminals in this matter, their letter emphasized that it was Ron who took the lead and then beheaded Harry completely.

I hope Ron can still be as bragging as he is now tomorrow.
