Magical Studies at Hogwarts

On this night, Gryffindor undoubtedly received the most attention, both from students and professors.

The savior of the wizarding world became a Gryffindor, which undoubtedly made this academy, which has been extremely glorious since the 40s, even more dazzling.

After all, which college can accommodate both the first of today's wizarding world and the savior of British wizarding?

Perhaps the only one that can be beaten a little bit is Slytherin, the hotbed of Death Eaters.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Ravenclaws.

Generally speaking, the presence of eaglets in Hogwarts is very low. Apart from fighting for extra points from professors in class and competing with Hufflepuff to see who is the second worst in class, they rarely become a problem in the school. figure.

"Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth of human beings."

Ravenclaw's famous saying expresses to some extent the common trait of the eaglets - always being greedy for knowledge.

Other than that, it rarely attracts the attention of the eaglets.

After the sorting ceremony, Dumbledore gave another routine pre-school speech.Then, it was the dinner party that Ike was looking forward to.

After reliving his life for 11 years and enduring fish and chips for 11 years, Ike now desperately hopes that the Hogwarts dinner can bring him some surprises. Even if it is still mainly British cuisine, it should not be too monotonous.

In fact, this did not disappoint Ike.

Roasted chicken, fried chicken, steaks, lamb chops, meat was much more abundant than in the days of Santa Maria.In addition to the first time, there are also Western classic vegetarian dishes such as mashed potatoes and boiled broccoli, which are paired with sweet pumpkin juice and fruit juice, which is very rich.

Ike took a piece of steak, added some mashed potatoes, a few pieces of broccoli, and poured a glass of fresh orange juice.Cutting off a piece with the knife and fork in your hand, the meat was full of juice, and it felt like a chain steak restaurant in my memory.

Years of habit have made Ike always take his time when dining, but this did not attract anyone's attention at the long Ravenclaw table.

That's what everyone does.

Smart people are always good at hiding themselves among the crowd in unfamiliar environments, so even if there are one or two freshmen who imitate the Gryffindor freshmen and open their hands left and right to show their boldness, they will silently pick up the knife after seeing how others eat. cross.

After all, being sorted into Ravenclaw at least shows that there is no problem with IQ.

In terms of emotional intelligence, some people will start to contact the classmates around them, find some topics to talk about while eating, and then make friends quickly; others will not do this.

Ike is one of them.

At the end of the meal, the food disappears from the table, followed by traditional desserts such as pudding and ice cream.After every student tasted it, they all disappeared again under the influence of magic.

Dumbledore stood up from his seat and clapped his hands, but the sound reached everyone's ears accurately, and the entire auditorium fell silent.

"Before the new semester begins, there are a few things I want to say..."

"First-year students should be aware that the Forbidden Forest is closed to all students."

"Mr. Filch, the administrator, asked me to remind everyone not to perform magic in the corridors."

"Finally, anyone who doesn't want to suffer an accident or die a painful death, please do not enter the corridor on the right on the fourth floor..."

Dumbledore glanced over it, finally smiled, took out his wand and waved it, and countless golden letters appeared in the air.

"Now, before everyone goes to bed, let's sing the school song together!"

The freshmen were generally confused, and most of the old students looked unhappy.

There's no music score for this damn thing!Anyone can sing to their favorite tune!

The scene is truly beyond words.

Ike gritted his teeth and looked at Dumbledore's intoxicated conductor on the stage, while the Weasley twins in the audience seriously finished the performance to the tune of a funeral march.

"Okay, let's ask the prefects of each college to take the freshmen back to their dormitories. I wish you a good dream!" Dumbledore blinked cutely, turned around and left with the professors.

"Freshmen, follow me!" Roger Davis, the prefect of Ravenclaw, stood up and clapped his hands, "Please follow, our lounge is still some distance from the Great Hall."

Penelo Crevat, the female prefect who stood up with Roger, also said: "Please follow up, every year freshmen get lost when they return to the dormitory for the first time. I hope this will not happen to you. "

There were not many new students in Ravenclaw this year, and everyone followed Roger and Penello obediently towards the Ravenclaw Tower.

"Pay attention to the stairs. They are enchanted by Ms. Ravenclaw and will move. Some steps will suddenly disappear. But don't worry, you won't be hurt even if you fall. You just have to walk it again." Penello While leading the way, he said, "However, the movement of the stairs is regular. As long as you observe more, I believe you will understand it soon."

"This is very important." Roger continued, "The entrance to the Ravenclaw lounge is at the top of the tower. Whether you are in class or dining, you have to deal with these stairs."

"Unfortunately, because tomorrow is Monday, you don't have time to get familiar with these." Roger said with a smile, "So I think you'd better get up early to avoid being late."

The group climbed eight floors and finally arrived at the entrance of the Ravenclaw lounge.

A very old bare wooden board, which looks very inconspicuous, has a bronze door knocker on it.Roger knocked lightly on the bronze door knocker, and a voice sounded: "What three words can answer all questions?"

"I don't know." Roger thought for a moment and replied.

"That's a good answer." The bronze door knocker sounded, and then the wooden board moved away, and a brick archway appeared in front of him.

Roger asked the freshmen to follow him, then left and said: "If you want to enter the Ravenclaw lounge, you only need to answer the question on the door knocker. Of course, if you can't think of it, you can only wait for others to answer. Get on, or you’ll have to spend the night outside the lounge.”

"Believe me, that was not a good experience." Roger seemed to remember some unbearable memories and shuddered unnaturally, "Okay, now, welcome to Ravenclaw!"

With Roger's slightly excited tone, the Ravenclaw common room finally appeared in front of the eaglets.

It was a large circular room with elegant arched windows and hanging blue and bronze silks.The dome is decorated with stars, as is the dark blue carpet on the floor.Facing the entrance is a white marble bust of Rowena Ravenclaw, and next to it is a door that leads to the girls' dormitory.

The common room looked huge, with tables, chairs, sofas, and bookshelves on all four walls.A fireplace is on the left side of the entrance. Above the fireplace is a bronze eagle statue, which is the symbol of Ravenclaw.

"Your greetings and class schedules have been placed on your dormitory bed. I think you all can't wait to see your dormitory." Penello said with a smile, "Now girls, follow me. The girls' dormitory is upstairs. .”

After saying that, Penello led the three girls along the stairs to the girls' dormitory.Roger shrugged at the remaining five people: "Okay, the boys' dormitory is downstairs, come with me now..."

"You are the only freshmen this year, but you are in two dormitories." Roger quickly came to the door of the dormitory. "I think you must have a lot to say, but I advise you not to talk too late. The first class is in It’s nine in the morning, if it’s too late you might not be able to get up, and it’s bad if you’re late.”

"Okay, senior." Ike and others thanked Roger. Roger smiled and waved his hand, turned and walked towards his dormitory.

Pushing open the dormitory door, there is an almost circular room.There were two arched windows, and three beds separated by the windows, against the wall, with bedside tables sandwiched between them.The floor was covered with a blue carpet, with an eagle in the center.There is a chandelier on the ceiling, which is shining soft light.On the other side of the room were three tables, each with a lamp.

There is a stove in the center of the room. It looks a little old, but it is very clean.Directly opposite the door is a large wardrobe, now open, and you can clearly see that it is divided into three areas.

He was placed on the bed in a respectful manner, and it seemed that the beds had been allocated.Ike's was at the very end, and he had no objection to this. After all, in terms of environment alone, this was already much better than Santa Maria.

After all, except for Juliane's room and the reception room, no room in Santa Maria had carpets.

"It seems that this is where we will live together for the next seven years." A fat little man with short blond hair said with a smile, "Let me introduce, my name is Terry Butt, and my parents are both wizards. Facts I've been waiting for the letter from Hogwarts, but when it finally came, I was still excited."

"Stuart Ackley, his parents are ordinary people." Stuart is a little fatter than Terry. "If it weren't for Professor Flitwick, I would have always thought it was a scam. After all, I have been admitted to Eton College. . But who can resist magic?"

"By the way, do you know Eton College? It's the best school in the UK! My dad told me so!"

"Sorry, I don't know." Terry shook his head, "I don't know much about the Muggle world."

"Well, you just need to know that it is very powerful." Stewart looked very proud, "By the way, your name is Ike, right?"

Ike nodded: "Ike Strider, from Santa Maria Welfare Home."

"Sorry, I don't know..." Stewart and Terry said quickly, and Ike waved his hand indifferently, "No need to apologize, it's nothing, I'm used to it."

"Okay, but from today on, we are your brothers, right Terry?"

"Of course!"

"Okay, good brothers." Ike smiled and said while opening the box, "But I think we have to pack up and get ready for bed. After all, it's getting late. There are two potions classes tomorrow morning. I'm here I heard someone say at the dinner that Professor Snape seems to be very strict..."

"You're right, Ike," Stuart replied, "You can never be late for your first class, especially Potions."

"certainly……"
