The man behind Hogwarts

Jingle Bell.

The school bell rang.

At the broad and grand entrance of Bethlehem School, dense crowds of students quickly poured out. Everyone was youthful, lively and lovely.

Looking carefully at the students' clothes, most of them are very appropriate and made of good materials.

The full name of Bethlehem is "Plymouth Bethlehem School for the Nobles." Just by listening to the name, you can tell that it is a school for the nobility. Those who can go to school here can sum up their family background in four words: either rich or noble.

William walked out of the teaching building carrying a schoolbag.

Behind him, there were several young people clustered around, chatting and laughing with each other. Often when they talked about a topic, they would first ask William for his opinion.

"William, this year's Prisma Mathematics Competition will be held in half a month. Have you signed up?"

A curly-haired boy asked curiously.

"Then there's no need to ask. William will never miss this kind of competition."

The speaker was a girl with slight freckles. She pointed out enthusiastically, "William participated in the math competition the year before last and the math competition last year, and won first place. He will definitely participate this time."

The curly-haired boy wailed.

"William, please give us ordinary people a way to survive. Why are there smart people like you in the world?"

Everyone laughed.

William shook his head modestly, "I'm actually not smart, I just worked hard."

The freckled girl joked, "Every year the top grader says he is not smart. Do you believe it?"

"Do not believe."

Everyone else responded in unison.

William smiled and said nothing.

They walked out of school, said goodbye to each other, and then went their separate ways. Most of them had family members driving to pick them up.

After going around a street, he found a black car that had obviously been parked for a long time. William opened the back door and got in, saying, "Let's go."

The driver answered "yes", and then the black car started smoothly.

William opened his schoolbag, took out a thick book from it, turned to page 147, and read it with relish.

The driver, a sturdy man in a suit, just drove silently without saying a word.

"How are the preparations for tonight's party?"

After reading the content on one page, William nodded with satisfaction, turned to the next page, and asked a question at the same time.

"When I came out, I saw Mr. Leed had arrived at the company, and Mr. Xiao also talked to him for a while. I think I was well prepared."

"Where's Kyle? Have you seen him?"

"No."

William nodded clearly, said no more, and then concentrated on the book in his hand.

Not long after, the black car arrived at its destination.

"No need to pick me up tonight, I'll go there by myself then."

"Yes, boss."

When he got home, he first checked the anti-theft measures and found nothing abnormal before he relaxed.

Start learning math.

"There's still half a month left, and I'm probably going to fail in this math competition."

William doesn't have high expectations for the Plymouth Mathematics Competition in half a month, because this time he signed up for the high school group, and he is now only in the seventh grade of elementary school.

"You might as well give it a try."

"After all, the junior high school competition is no longer challenging at all..."

Although he thought so, William still felt a little regretful.

Whether it is in the past life or now, once the knowledge of various disciplines is involved in competitions, its difficulty will often increase significantly.

Even with my current accumulation, I can only dominate the junior high school competition.

You might get a perfect score on a high school math final exam, but a high school-level math competition?

very difficult.

While thinking, there was a strange movement outside the door.

Tuk Tuk Tuk.

A crisp knock on the door sounded...

William opened the door vigilantly and looked straight.

no one?

The empty doorway made him even more wary.

Just as he was about to close the door, his eyes caught sight of the soles of his feet.

This is?

owl?

William was extremely surprised.

In the doorway, an owl glanced at William with a cat-like head, then picked up a letter from the ground and raised its head.

"For me?"

The owl nodded, seeming to understand what William said.

Taking the envelope from the owl's mouth, William was surprised and delighted when he saw the bright red wax seal and the familiar pattern on the envelope.

So, is it this world?

He politely invited the owl into the room and filled a bowl full of snacks.

The owl cooed happily.

William sat aside and slowly opened the envelope...

Made of thick parchment, red wax seal, a capital "H", surrounded by lions, snakes, badgers, and eagles.

Dear Mr. Sides:

We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.Enclosed is a list of required books and equipment.

The semester is scheduled to begin on September 1st. We will be waiting for your owl to bring your reply before July 31st.

Vice-Principal (Female) Minerva McGonagall

sincerely

After reading it over and over again, You was not sure, so he read it carefully from beginning to end, including the equipment list, and did not miss every word.

After a while.

William breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the owl with a complicated expression.

I thought I just traveled to the ordinary world, but I didn't expect it to be here.

The world of "Harry Potter", or rather, the magical world.

No.

Not sure yet.

Unless there is more definite evidence.

William already thought that this guess was accurate, but he also wanted a proof.

Unless, my system can recognize that magic exists.

William has a system, and he has discovered the existence of the system since he woke up in this world.

Without further ado, take a look at the system for changes.

Leave the owl in the living room. William returned to the bedroom alone, lay down on the bed, and began to fall asleep.

But the more anxious I am, the more I can't sleep.

Tossing and turning.

Curiosity is like a cat's claws, constantly scratching, eager to be verified.

I do not know how long it has been.

William suddenly came to a vast white space.

It's like a tunnel, but it's wrapped in white cloud-like material from top to bottom, left and right, making it look bright and ethereal.

This is William's system, or a form of the system displayed before his eyes.

Walking forward along the corridor, you will soon reach a three-way intersection.

In front of every intersection, there is a signpost.

Left: Scholar

Center: Black Scholar

Right: I am alone

The three road signs were still clean, but the two corridors on the left and right were blocked by white clouds. William tried to enter by force, but was unable to move Bai Yun even a bit.

Only the "black scholar" corridor in the middle is passable.

He was not surprised by what he saw.

Three years ago, William traveled through time and came to this world, and then discovered this system space.

At that time, all three corridors were open to traffic, but the signposts indicated that you should choose one of the three.

After thinking for a long time, he chose "Black Scholar".

As a result, the other two corridors were closed.

Looking at the sign pointing towards "Black Scholars" it says:

Academic celestial being, black incarnation, you are a scholar who advocates violence.
