Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord

Chapter 16: Sorting ceremony

Professor McGonagall briefly told Dumbledore what happened outside the auditorium. In the end, Professor McGonagall seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Dumbledore's wave.

Professor McGonagall did not deliberately lower her voice, nor did she use any sound insulation magic. Therefore, the professors around Dumbledore also heard what Professor McGonagall said and showed their surprised eyes.

Ilona, ​​who was not far from Dumbledore, also heard it, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Wentworth, you have to understand the principle of becoming famous as early as possible. No one has taught you to understand it. Before you enter the school, you already know how to establish your own image among the freshmen. You have performed better than I expected.

Ilona picked up the wine glass in front of her, raised it slightly in the direction of Wentworth, and took a sip with a satisfied look on her face.

"Professor McGonagall, let's do the sorting ceremony first. We'll talk about other things later."

Dumbledore said after interrupting Professor McGonagall with a wave.

And Professor McGonagall also knew that some things were really not suitable for discussion here, and he did not insist on it, and immediately announced that the Hogwarts sorting ceremony officially began.

Hearing the official start of the sorting ceremony, many freshmen showed nervous expressions. Looking at the tense freshmen around, Wentworth, who already knew the content of the sorting ceremony, only thought it was a little funny.

Looking around, Kassandra was still relatively calm among the freshmen, but her originally white cheeks were now a little paler.

In front, the Sorting Hat, who had been waiting for a long time, seemed to be impatient.

I saw a gap in the quaint hat in front of everyone, and a song came first to open his voice:

"La la la Hogwarts, la la la..."

As soon as the Sorting Hat opened, many freshmen couldn't help covering their ears, including Wentworth.

After the Sorting Hat finished singing, Professor McGonagall took a long piece of parchment in his hand and stood beside the Sorting Hat. Obviously, the name of the new Hogwarts freshman was written on the parchment.

Following the name that Professor McGonagall called, each new student stepped forward and put on the sorting hat. The sorting hat will determine where they will live in the next few years.

"Cassandra!"

When Professor McGonagall's voice fell, Cassandra gently stroked her long golden hair, and then walked up with graceful steps.

Although she is also only 11 years old, Wentworth also has to admit that the proud girl who walked past him can already see her graceful figure and her prosperous face.

As soon as Cassandra sat down with the Sorting Hat on her head, the Sorting Hat said aloud:

"No doubt, Slytherin!"

In the auditorium, there was a burst of cheers from Slytherin's long table. After all, there is no senior who doesn't like beautiful junior girls, right?

Hearing the Sorting Hat's decision, Cassandra also sighed with relief, smiled, and then walked to the Slytherin long table calmly.

When passing Wentworth, Cassandra kept saying:

"I said long ago that I belong to Slytherin!"

Finally, after a long wait, Wentworth finally heard his name from Professor McGonagall's mouth.

After hearing what Professor McGonagall told about what happened outside the auditorium, as Wentworth walked towards the Sorting Hat, the eyes of many professors on the professor's chair were also on him.

After Wentworth was seated, Professor McGonagall gave him a deep look and put the Sorting Hat on Wentworth's head.

"Hey, it's a bit difficult to do, it's really difficult to do. First of all, we use the elimination method, we don't have enough ambition, and we first eliminate Slytherin."

"It seems that he has the courage to see through life and death. If that's the case, then, Gran..."

Hearing this, Wentworth looked anxious, didn't you just push me into the fire pit!

Just as the Sorting Hat was about to pronounce Gryffindor's name, Wentworth's pre-school Occlumency came into play.

In addition to preventing others from detecting your own thoughts, Occlumency can even construct thoughts in your own mind at will after mastering it.

Therefore, Wentworth did not hesitate to think in his mind that if he went to Gryffindor, he would definitely find an opportunity to take the Sorting Hat as his own. After all, the Sorting Hat was the founder of Hogwarts. People, belongings of Gryffindor, as a student of Gryffindor House, are the heirs recognized by Gryffindor and have the right of inheritance.

And the Sorting Hat also caught Wentworth's thoughts at the same time, and half of what he said was swallowed.

I saw the Sorting Hat muttered softly with some grievances:

"How can you have such a bold idea?! I have never seen such a bold student. I think you should be assigned to Azkaban!"

The Sorting Hat's voice was not loud, and it seemed that she was afraid of angering Wentworth. As a magic item with wisdom, the Sorting Hat actually felt that Wentworth could really do it!

Wentworth and Mag were the only ones who heard the Sorting Hat's voice, both of them were stunned. In the eyes of the others, they only saw that the Sorting Hat was muttering something, and it seemed that they hadn't made a decision for a long time.

Although Professor McGonagall was taken aback by the Sorting Hat's words, UU read www.uukanshu.com, but he hadn't forgotten his responsibilities, so he coughed softly beside him.

Knowing that he couldn't drag the Sorting Hat any longer, he had to be a little tangled, and even asked a little:

"Let me think, I know, how about Hufflepuff? I think Hufflepuff is the best for you, Hufflepuff!"

This time, the Sorting Hat, who did not feel Wentworth's objection, also shouted out Hufflepuff's name with a sigh of relief.

Hearing the name of his academy, there was also a burst of enthusiastic cheers from Hufflepuff's long table, and one of them cheered the loudest. Wentworth followed the sound and looked over, it was Cedric.

After the Sorting Hat was taken off his head by Professor McGonagall, Wentworth went straight to Hufflepuff's table.

At this time, Cedric didn't know what he said to the classmates next to him, but he actually reserved a seat for Wentworth next to him.

Seeing Wentworth walking over, Cedric stood up and hugged Wentworth, and the two sat down together.

"I didn't expect you to actually come to Hufflepuff!"

Cedric said in disbelief.

And Wentworth said with a smile on his face:

"Hufflepuff has always been my dream!"

Wentworth's words caused the surrounding Hufflepuff students to cast an admiring look at him.

"Why? Most of the freshmen want to go to Gryffindor or Ravenclaw, and there are many pure-blood wizards who regard Slytherin as a dream. Few freshmen want to come to Hufflepuff?"

Cedric asked suspiciously.

"Because it's close to the kitchen!"

Wentworth said of course.
