The Occult Warlock of Hogwarts

At this time, someone suddenly screamed.

DeWitt looked at the source of the scream, and through the gaps in the crowd, he saw pale heads emerging from the wall - eyes open, translucent, smiling, and there were more than one.

It should be a ghost, right? DeWitt thought to himself, but why can everyone see it? 1 The ghosts are still wearing inappropriate clothes, but the color of the clothes has been replaced by white in different grayscales, and one of them is even fighting with the freshmen.

Say hello. Soon, the ghosts were driven through the wall and entered the auditorium next door - Professor McGonagall was really here.

"Now, line up in single file," Professor McGonagall said to the first-year students, "and follow me."

Follow Professor McGonagall to the hall and then to the auditorium - the auditorium is in line with DeWitt's inherent impression. It is magnificent and brightly lit. What is commendable is that the ceiling of the auditorium has been transformed by magic into a starry sky, from the ground to the top.

The upper part of this gap is lit with candles floating for illumination.

"This place has been enchanted and looks like the sky outside," DeWitt heard Hermione whisper: "I read about it in "Hogwarts: A School History"."

In other words, it is not the real night sky, but the fake starry sky increases the gold content of this magic.

Now the first-year students were standing in a row facing their seniors. It felt bad to be watched. DeWitt tried hard to control the muscles on his face and focus on Professor McGonagall - her

She brought over a chair and took out some old hats, which seemed to be similar to the one on her head.

It seems that there is no political review anymore? DeWitt secretly speculated whether a monster unique to the magical world would emerge from the hat and take turns to accept challenges? Soon there will be no need to guess, this one is patched and hidden in the folds.

The old and dusty wizard hat suddenly spoke and sang a song - the tune was unpleasant, but the words were clear. After summarizing and refining the content, DeWitt had his own guess.

This is a mind-reading hat. The hat will determine which house the new students should be assigned to based on their thoughts - the brave ones will go to Gryffindor, the diligent ones will go to Hufflepuff, the smart ones will go to Ravenclaw, and the scheming ones will go to Ravenclaw.

Slytherin. Generally speaking, the first three are excellent qualities worthy of recognition, and the last one is something that everyone hopes they have, but everyone does not want to be evaluated in this way by others.

It doesn't matter which house you enter, DeWitt originally thought so, but he heard Ron praying from the side: "Never put me in Slytherin, never put me in Slytherin, Qian

Don't sort me into Slytherin..."

"Why do you say that?" DeWitt tried to find out some secret information to see if Ron, a pure-blood family, could tell him some secret information. Several new Muggle-born students around him also pricked up their ears.

"The students taught by Slytherin are all bad ones. When the mysterious man was active, those who followed the mysterious man to poison other wizards. Even the mysterious man himself was basically from Slytherin, and as long as they were pure

Blood, if there are really Muggle-born wizards who are sorted into Slytherin House..." Ron threatened with certainty: "I can't even imagine what will happen! But generally, Muggle-born freshmen will not be

Sorted into Slytherin."

"Slytherin students are not popular?" DeWitt asked again: "Do they only play with people from their own house?"

"More or less," Ron said: "They have their own small circle and look down on people outside the circle."

In other words, if you join Slytherin, even if you have to fight against the other three houses in exchange for the qualification to integrate into the "small circle", you will inevitably encounter some problems during the integration process.

DeWitt himself is not a pure-blood, and his family background is not good... No, it seems that Slytherin is not a good place, and judging from Ron's appearance, it is a recognized fact that Slytherin has a poor reputation.

.If you want to stay out of trouble, it’s best to consider the other three colleges.

With such random thoughts, DeWitt subconsciously ignored the fact that Sorting does not mean he can go to whichever college he wants. It wasn't until the first Sorting result came out that he realized that he should think about how to deal with the Sorting Hat's mind reading.

question.

Generally speaking, to deal with the mental state, only one spell "Calm and Peace" 2 is enough. During the duration of the spell, whether it is charm, silence, madness, fear... as long as it is negative on the mental level

The state of this spell is all ineffective in the face of this spell, and the learning threshold is low. Almost every mage can do it. But DeWitt has never seen the mind-reading here, and Mrs. White has never mentioned it. What should he do?

I soon figured it out. The only thing I can do now is to cast a spell on myself, and first use "Calm and Calm".

The order of the Sorting Ceremony is arranged in alphabetical order by last name. The first one is Hannah Abbott, and the following ones are not memorable. The first familiar name I heard is Hermione. She entered Gryffindor.

Will Longbottom, he also entered Gryffindor, and then Draco Malfoy - when it was the boy's turn, Ron said with confidence: "This must be a Slytherin." The result was the same.

, as soon as the hat touched Malfoy's hair, he immediately announced that the result was Slytherin.

Then there's Harry Potter.

When Harry Potter's name was read, DeWitt finally had the opportunity to realize his status from the reactions of a large number of wizards - the buzz in the entire auditorium was like a swarm of bees emerging from the nest.

, everyone was whispering to each other, asking people around him if this Potter was the Potter they thought. When the result "Gryffindor" was announced loudly by the Sorting Hat, everyone in the entire college was proud, especially

The Gryffindor prefects stood up excitedly and shook hands with Harry. Everyone thought that receiving Harry Potter was an honor for the academy.

DeWitt was the second to last one, and Ron was sorted into Gryffindor before him. This result made him think that he should belong - look, everyone he knew was admitted to Gryffindor,

Will he be an exception? So until he sat on the chair, DeWitt was not too nervous. He maintained a "calm mind", expelled the disgust of the stains on the hat, and then put the hat on his head.

A voice sounded in DeWitt's heart: "So...calm. I haven't seen such a stable freshman in a long time."

What does this mean? What kind of magic is this? DeWitt didn't say anything, and his thinking speed instantly increased in an orderly manner. After all, being calm and tranquil can only allow him to control himself, not give up thinking.

"Slow down, slow down," the Sorting Hat shouted in DeWitt's heart: "Your thoughts are moving too fast, I can't see..."

It's amazing, DeWitt knew that he would be read, and he was prepared. But what about his memory? Will the Sorting Hat's ability follow his own thoughts and read all his memories? If the ceremony is not interrupted,

, do you also want to be seen? The feeling of privacy being spied on is really bad. No matter what, your memories must not be seen. This is a risk that cannot be taken. Something must be done to eliminate the risk of memories being spied on.

So he took off his hat, threw it to the ground, stood up suddenly, looked at Professor McGonagall and asked in a deep voice: "Professor! This hat is checking my memory! What is going on?"

1: There is a soul in "Original Sin", but you must learn the skill of spiritual vision to see it and communicate with the soul

2: It is also a skill in the game. The effect is to clear the negative mental state. The explanations added here are all for logical and self-consistent personal understanding
