Hogwarts Card Drawer

Chapter 9 The Prefect's Speech

Congratulations! I'm Prefect Gemma Farley [I couldn't find an official translation of the name, so I'll keep it as it is], and it's my pleasure to welcome you to Slytherin House. The symbol of our house is a giant snake - the wisest of creatures, the colors of our house are emerald and silver, and the entrance to our common room is in a hidden place in the basement. As you can see, we can look directly at the bottom of Hogwarts Lake through the window. We can often spot a giant octopus loitering outside the window, and sometimes even more interesting creatures. We like the place we live to have an air of mysterious underwater shipwrecks.

There are some facts about Slytherin you should know, and there are some rumors about Slytherin you should forget. First, let me tell you some facts about the rumors. You've probably heard rumors about Slytherin - we all love to study the Dark Arts and that Slytherin only takes students from families with prestigious wizards or something. You should not believe the things that the academies that compete with us say. I don't deny that our college has produced some black mages, but all three other colleges also have black mages-it's just that they don't want to admit it. Yes, we have a tendency to admit descendants of prestigious wizarding families, and you'll also find many Slytherins with at least one Muggle parent.

I will also tell you a fact that the other three houses are silent about: the great Merlin was also a student of Slytherin. Yes, Merlin himself, the most famous wizard in history! All his knowledge is from Slytherin house! Do you want to follow in Merlin's footsteps? Or would you rather follow the example of ex-Hufflepuff Puffett inventing a self-cleaning rag? I think the answer is obvious.

Clarified some rumors about us. Time to tell you a little bit about us, the coolest and sharpest house in the school. Our purpose is to win, because we care about the honor and tradition of Slytherin. Our classmates also respect us very much. Yes, some respect and a touch of awe because of our reputation in the Dark Arts, but you know what? Sometimes it's fun, and it's famous in areas that no one dares to touch. You can hint to other students that you can read the books in the entire library [meaning including the restricted area], and see if others dare to carve and doodle on your pencil case. But we are not bad people. We love our house emblem, the Serpent, for being: cunning, powerful, and often misunderstood.

For example, we Slytherins look out for each other - don't Ravenclaws do the same. But unlike Ravenclaw, who has the most nerds, always comparing his own grades, we Slytherins are more like brothers and sisters. The corridors of Hogwarts are often full of little traps for the unwary, and you're lucky if you've got a Slytherin at your side to help you keep going. As far as we're concerned, once you're a member of the Snake Court - one of the elite. Because you know what Salazar Slytherin looks for in recruits? great seeds. You were chosen for this academy because you have the potential to be great. Well, look around at these people in the common room, and if you don't think there's anything special or remarkable about them, don't say so. Because if the Sorting Hat sorts them into this house, there must be something great about them, don't forget that.

Speaking of people who are destined not to have great wisdom, I haven't mentioned Gryffindor yet. Many people say that Slytherin and Gryffindor represent two opposites of a world. Personally, I think Gryffindors are just a bunch of wannabe Slytherins. Note that some people say that Salazar Slytherin and Godric Gryffindor value students with the same talents, so maybe we and Gryffindor are similar. But that doesn't mean we're courting Gryffindors. They want to beat us just like we want to beat them. Something you need to know: The ghost of our academy is the Bloody Baron.

If you get on well with him, he may be able to scare anyone you want. Just don't ask him where the blood stains came from, he doesn't like being asked that question. The password of the common room will be changed every two weeks, pay attention to check the bulletin board. It is not permitted to bring students from other houses into our common room and give them our password. We haven't let outsiders in our common room for seven hundred years. [Harry and Ron are really gods...] Chronos thought. I think that's all I have to say.

I believe you will like our bedroom. Our bed was a traditional four-poster with green silk hangings and silver thread embroidery on the bedspread. Medieval tapestries hanging on the walls tell of the famous Slytherin's great adventures, and silver lanterns hang from the upper ceiling. Listening to the soft sound of waves lapping against the window at the bottom of the lake outside the window, you will sleep peacefully.

The prefect's big speech said that the blood of the freshmen except Chronos was boiling. Kronos got a few key words from the prefect's words. He might get a chance to flip through the forbidden books in the restricted section of the library! This is great news for Chronos!

Then after the girl walked into the next door, the boy turned around and walked into another door! At last Kronos found his own bed. Five four-pillar beds are hung with dark green flannel curtains. Their luggage had already been placed on the bed.

It's just that Chronos and the others are obviously sleepy after a day of hard work. Draco Malfoy even collapsed on the bed without changing his pajamas!

To this day, Chronos can't believe what happened before his eyes. It's so real and uncontrollable.
