From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 6 Sorting Ceremony

The Sorting Hat finally finished singing and became quiet. Professor Mellors took out a piece of parchment and said, "Next, the new students whose names I read will come and put on the Sorting Hat. After sorting, they can sit in their own house."

"Abraxas Malfoy!" Professor Mellors shouted, pointing at the parchment.

Xiwen patted Abu on the shoulder and whispered "Come on."

Abraxas walked towards the chair at the front of the auditorium calmly on the surface, but Sivan noticed that his hands were shaking.

"Slytherin!"

The moment the Sorting Hat touched his head, he shouted decisively, and warm cheers erupted from the Slytherin table. Abu also smiled and happily walked towards Ignatius who was waving to him.

Professor Mellors: "Alastor Moody!"

The Sorting Hat shouted without hesitation: "Gryffindor!"

"Baruch Diggory"

"Hufflepuffs!"

……

"Pani Mannis!"

When Professor Mellors called out this name, Xiven looked up and saw the little girl with freckles face who had been kicked away by Abraxas in the carriage passing by. As she hurried by, she accidentally stepped on Xiwen's foot. She quickly turned around and bowed, apologizing repeatedly.

Xiwen shook his head and said: "It's okay, go to the branch hospital quickly."

After being forgiven, the little girl with freckles, Mannis, hurried to the chair and sat down, trembling all over and putting on the sorting hat.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the Sorting Hat did not speak.

Xiwen glanced at the professor's chair and the dean's table in the audience, and found that everyone just glanced at it with mild interest and started chatting separately. It seemed that they were very used to it.

Elsiona, who was next to her, saw Xiwen's doubts and explained to him: "Some young wizards have the characteristics of different houses at the same time. The Sorting Hat will think longer when meeting them."

Xiwen nodded clearly, and then suddenly asked with interest: "Do you think there is someone who possesses the characteristics of the four academies at the same time?"

Elsiona rolled her eyes at him and said: "It's unlikely. I don't think a Slytherin will have the characteristics of a Hufflepuff."

"That's right."

After thinking for more than a minute, the Sorting Hat finally opened the crack on the edge of its hat:

"Ravenclaw!"

In the audience, the Ravenclaws wearing blue collared school uniforms applauded to welcome their first new student.

Ravenclaw seems to be the least crowded among the four houses. On the other hand, Hufflepuff is almost full at the long table.

"Come back, Miss Mannes!" Professor Mellors suddenly shouted.

It turned out that Patney Mannix forgot to put the Sorting Hat back on the chair, and the whole auditorium burst into laughter.

Mannis blushed with embarrassment and ran to the back of the Ravenclaw table and huddled in a corner. Several senior Ravenclaw students stood up as if to comfort her.

"Manto Trelawney." Professor Mellors was obviously more concerned about the process of sorting, and quickly called out the next name.

The person walking towards the Sorting Hat was a girl with silver hair. Her cold and beautiful face and strange silver eyes were very eye-catching. Her expression was calm, as if nothing around her could attract her attention.

"Ravenclaw!" the Sorting Hat shouted.

The girl named Manto opened her silver-white eyes and placed the Sorting Hat on the chair calmly. Her expression remained unchanged, as if everything was expected.

"Sivan Rozier!"

Xiwen, who was observing the strange girl, was slapped hard. Xiwen turned his head in surprise. Elsiona curled her lips next to him and said, "Stop being obsessed, it's your turn!"

Xiwen smiled coquettishly, straightened his sleeves a little nervously, and walked towards the Sorting Hat. .

Resisting the urge to recite a cleaning spell on the Sorting Hat, Xiven put the Sorting Hat on his head smoothly without any shaking of his hands, because he seriously suspected that just tilting it a little would shake off a lot of dust in front of his face.

"Difficult, very difficult."

An unpleasant voice sounded in Xiwen's mind, almost startling him!

"Kid, don't be nervous, I am the Sorting Hat on your head."

The Sorting Hat's explanation sounded in time, so Xiwen didn't lose his temper in public.

"Interesting child. With noble blood and lofty ambitions, Slytherin is obviously a good choice; keen on learning knowledge and possessing extraordinary wisdom, you can also be well cultivated in Ravenclaw."

Xiven was thinking about why he couldn't go to Gryffindor and Hufflepuff when the Sorting Hat's voice rang again: "You may also have brave and upright character, but these are so small compared to your wisdom and ambition." insignificant."

With no time to think about his ambitions, Xiven discovered that the Sorting Hat could hear what he was thinking.

"Legilimency?" he asked.

"Smart boy." The Sorting Hat's voice sounded again. "Okay, I want to know your own opinion. Do you want to go to Slytherin or Ravenclaw?"

"Anything is fine, no choice." Xiwen muttered, but in his heart he was thinking about how he used to immerse himself in the sea of ​​books every day. On the one hand, he really wanted knowledge, and on the other hand, he also wanted to find a soul that was not in harmony with the world. What is the solution. Those twenty years were basically spent in reading. I had never seen Kama Taj since I was a child, and I had very little experience in other aspects.

If I had a choice, I would probably want to change my way of living.

"I understand." The Sorting Hat seemed to finally make up his mind.

"Slytherin!"

The Slytherin table burst into applause. Xiven was stunned for a moment, opened his eyes, and saw Abraxas and Ignatius already waving.

He carefully placed the Sorting Hat steadily on the chair. He looked up and saw Elsiona, one of the new students on the stage, looking this way. She immediately turned her face away after seeing his gaze.

Smiling at Elsiona, he walked towards the Slytherin table.

"Xiwen!" Abu waved his hand for Xiwen to sit over and said to him mysteriously. "How did you do it? The Sorting Hat was silent for five minutes! Prewett and I were beginning to worry that you would be sorted into other houses. Fortunately, you ended up coming to Slytherin."

Xiwen was a little surprised: "Did it take so long?"

Abraxas said: "Prewett is carrying an hourglass. Look, the sand in it has almost leaked out."

Ignatius cooperated and took out the hourglass and said: "Turn it over every ten minutes. When you start sorting, there is still more than half of the sand in it."

Xiwen looked at the hourglass with a dark green frame and fluorescent green gravel, which was leaking the last few grains of sand. Then the main body of the hourglass in the frame automatically rotated upside down.

"It's true. But I really didn't feel how long it had been." He held his chin and wondered. "It's been hesitating about sorting me into Ravenclaw or Slytherin."

"What a pity, it decided that I belonged to Slytherin without even talking to me." Abu tried to make a regretful expression, but he couldn't hide the pride on his face.

At this time, Professor Melos read a somewhat familiar name.

"Walburga Black!"

Xiwen saw the girl he had met once in the Tuofan clothing store.

"Another Black." Abu muttered beside him.

"Again?" Xiwen asked.

"Don't you know? The Black family is about to take over Slytherin." Abraxas said as he counted the Black students in Slytherin to Sivan. "The seventh-year student council president Charise Black, the sixth-year prefect Doria Black, the fifth-year prefect Cedrella Black, plus several Blacks from the lower grades... It's really disappointing Headache!"

Sivan caught a glimpse of Walburga Black having been neatly sorted and sitting at the Slytherin table next to a girl who looked somewhat similar to her.

"It seems that the Black family members are either chairman or prefects. Are they all excellent?" Xiwen asked.

Hearing this question, Ignatius turned around and explained: "Dean Slughorn has a very good relationship with all our pure-blood families, but whichever family is more powerful will be more favored. The Black family is It’s quite normal to value it.”

Xiwen's mouth twitched, "It's too real..."

At this time, Elsiona's name was also called, and the Sorting Hat easily gave the answer of Slytherin.

Elsiona ran over happily, and while letting Xiwen lean aside, she squeezed in and sat down next to him.

She grinned and said, "Do you know you just made me stand for five more minutes!"

Xiwen smiled bitterly: "I didn't want to either. If you want to blame it, blame it on the Sorting Hat! Or else I can recite a spell on the Sorting Hat to avenge you?"

Elsiona said: "Speaking of chanting spells, you can chant a cleaning spell for it, it is too dirty!"

Xiwen nodded in agreement, "Who says it's not the case?"

……

Finally, all the freshmen were sorted into different schools. Principal Armando Dippet, who was sitting in the middle of the podium in the auditorium, stood up and gave a speech. He had well-trimmed white hair and a white beard, and the wrinkles on his face also appeared neat. He looks like a capable old man.

"Welcome, welcome all freshmen to Hogwarts! This will be your warm family for the next seven years. Of course, old students are also welcome to come back here."

Then, his expression became serious: "I would like to reiterate that students are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest and do not cast spells in the corridors. The world situation is still tense. I hope everyone can study hard and improve their ability to protect themselves."

After finishing his speech, the principal waved his hand, and a variety of food appeared out of thin air on the long table. Everyone who couldn't wait began to feast.
