Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

A few days later, at noon, when the temperature of the sun gradually began to rise, a dark carriage pulled by four night horses quietly landed in front of Hogwarts Castle.

The arrival of the carriage attracted the attention of the students. Everyone put down what they were doing and gathered outside the foyer, staring at the vague figure in the carriage window with hostile eyes.

Unlike the students, Filch seemed a little too enthusiastic.

He jogged all the way to the carriage with awkward little steps, and opened the door for the people in the carriage.

Chris slowly walked out of the carriage. He was wearing a gorgeous gemstone crown that looked like a crown at first glance. He was also wearing a small velvet dress that looked simple but was actually luxurious. A black robe made of velvet animal skin, with the letter M representing the Ministry of Magic embroidered with gold thread on the left chest of the robe!

He first frowned and glanced at Filch, who was looking flattering next to the carriage, and then with a smile on his face, he said to the large group of students in front of him who obviously didn't want to see him:

"Students, I am very happy that you can come to welcome me!"

Hearing this, the crowd suddenly became commotion. Ron grinned and whispered to Harry next to him with a disgusted look:

"He is so shameless!"

"Who says it isn't?"

Harry and Hermione replied in unison, with a deep sense of helplessness in their tone besides disgust.

A few days ago, they had united with other students and began to put pressure on Professor McGonagall, hoping to prevent Chris from becoming the principal of Hogwarts.

It's a pity that, just like when Fudge was in office, the Ministry of Magic has absolute control over Hogwarts. A simple matter such as appointing a principal is not difficult for the Ministry of Magic at all. The professors at Hogwarts are Without Dumbledore, there was no room for resistance.

But this does not mean that the students will give up so easily. With Umbridge as a bad example, everyone united together very easily and wanted to drive away Chris through various means. .

Ever since, in this environment full of hostility and tension, Chris took office.

However, Chris obviously did not expect that the students had united together. At this moment, he was leading a group of followers, strutting across the crowd and walking towards Hogwarts under the gaze of everyone around him.

At this time, the auditorium had been decorated magnificently by the house elves, and the flags of the four major colleges were flying above the long tables of each college, automatically moving in the windless way.

On the long table, there are sets of silver tableware neatly placed. Just like previous banquets, as long as the principal gives an order, these empty tableware will be carefully cooked by various house elves. Filled with delicious food.

It's just that unlike the traditional Hogwarts banquets in the past, this welcome banquet belonging to Chris Flint was held at noon. This was also Chris's own request. He didn't seem to like the night very much. .

Surrounded by his entourage, Chris went straight to the podium that had previously been reserved for Dumbledore and watched the students take their seats one after another.

On the faculty seats behind him, McGonagall, Flitwick and other faculty members watched indifferently.

In fact, they had already arrived at the auditorium, but they did not wait for Chris' arrival outside the castle like the students and Filch did.

They were actually very disgusted with Chris becoming the principal of Hogwarts, but as Hogwarts faculty and staff, they did not have as much confidence as the students, so they could only express themselves in this way. own emotions.

Chris naturally felt the resistance of these faculty and staff, but unlike when he faced the students, instead of greeting them with a smile, Chris simply ignored them.

Standing on the high podium, looking at the small faces below, the smile on Chris's face became even brighter.

Originally, if it was just to find the Deathly Hallows, Chris could have found a puppet to act as the principal of Hogwarts, as he had expected before, while he himself would control it remotely from behind.

But after some careful consideration, Chris gave up this plan and chose to be the principal of Hogwarts himself.

This was undoubtedly a shocking decision. The Ministry of Magic and even the entire wizarding society in China expressed deep dissatisfaction with his behavior of leaving the Ministry of Magic to serve as the principal of Hogwarts.

But Chris didn't care.

Because he knew very well that whether it was the officials of the Ministry of Magic, his supporters in society or the staff of Hogwarts, they all had dispensable roles.

Only the students sitting in front of him now are the hope of the future!

Strong young people make the country strong!

These words are not just words!

Chris is confident that as long as he can personally teach these students and instill his ideas into them, then when these students grow up, they will become his loyal fans.

And when that time comes, all the difficulties he is facing at this moment will be easily solved!

Thinking of this, Chris took a long breath, smiled and said to everyone:

"Good afternoon, classmates. I am very happy to meet you again on a day like this... Principal Dumbledore is a very great person. There is no doubt about this. It is officially because of his selfless dedication that we are here. So many talents are constantly emerging. Next, I will uphold Principal Dumbledore’s legacy and continue to work hard!”

After a series of long speeches, the atmosphere in the auditorium had become extremely dull. The students who experienced such a high-intensity speech for the first time showed strong discomfort. Not only those who originally disliked Chris became They were even more indignant, and even the Slytherins who supported Chris became a little unhappy!

You must know that in the past, when Dumbledore was still here, he would never give these messy speeches. Dumbledore's speeches were always short and clear, which was refreshing.

But despite this, when Chris stopped speaking, everyone in Slytherin still gave them applause. This was the greatest support they could give as Chris's former classmates.

Chris was obviously very grateful and nodded in the direction of the Slytherin table.

And then, under the horrified eyes of everyone, he spoke again.

"Of course, as the new principal of Hogwarts, I also have some new rules to announce. So first of all..." Chris took out a piece of parchment from his coat pocket and read, "As we all know, Hogwarts City The castle is a mysterious building that has been passed down from ancient times. Countless wizards have lived here for thousands of years. Naturally, many secrets are buried here. I know that you are very interested in these secrets, and even some classmates He also specializes in discovering these secrets as his hobby, am I right? Everyone in Gryffindor?"

After saying this, the Slytherin table immediately burst into laughter, and the Gryffindor students were all unhappy inside.

Chris smiled and waved his hand, signaling the Slytherin students to stop, and then said:

"I understand very well what you are doing. Although life in Hogwarts is comfortable, it also seems a bit boring. And you are in the most energetic period of your life, so you are interested in these mysterious existences. It's normal. However, those mysterious beings buried in Hogwarts are not all safe. Just like Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets, the dangers buried inside are enough to take the life of anyone present.

Therefore, in view of the above reasons, as the principal of Hogwarts, I have made the decision to close some areas of Hogwarts. No one is allowed to approach. Violators will be expelled and will never be admitted!

First of all, the first batch of blocked areas are: the Room of Requirement, the Forbidden Forest, all basements except the Slytherin lounge and the Potions classroom, the vacant attic in the southeast, the secret passage under the Whomping Willow, and Hogmore. Decun..."

As the names of each area were read out, the expressions of the students in the auditorium became increasingly ugly.

Because these places have extraordinary significance, especially the Room of Requirement and Hogsmeade Village, which have almost become the favorite places for many Hogwarts students!

Now, these places are all closed, and the students' activity area has been compressed into a small area.

In the eyes of many people, this is no different from imprisoning them!

Almost instantly, several students stood up and loudly refuted Chris' words, wanting to make a last-ditch effort for freedom.

However, without exception, they were turned into baboons by Chris before they even finished speaking, and the roars in their mouths turned into wild beasts' roars with unknown meaning.

Looking at the baboons fleeing in terror among the crowd, Hermione's face turned pale.

If Harry and Ron hadn't held her down just now, she would have become one of them by now.

At the same time, she and the other classmates finally figured out something.

That is, after losing Dumbledore, powerful people like Chris can suppress and bully them unscrupulously!

The originally noisy auditorium suddenly became quiet, with only the voices of those poor baboons still echoing.

Seeing this, Chris raised the corners of his mouth slightly, flipped the page in his hand, and continued:

"In addition, in order to further improve students' learning efficiency and prevent you from wasting your time. After discussing with the director of the Education Office of the Ministry of Magic, I decided to change the Hogwarts schedule and refer to the striker's training schedule. Manage you. Starting tomorrow, all students must get up before 6 a.m. and go for a run. Meal etiquette must also be observed... A strict curfew is implemented at night... Intimate contact between men and women is prohibited... No fancy clothes are allowed...

In addition, in order to enable students to learn more useful knowledge and become more useful people to society. I have decided to improve the Defense Against the Dark Arts class and teach students more magic spells about combat. At the same time, I have officially renamed the Defense Against the Dark Arts class as the Combat Self-Defense Skills class, so stay tuned! "

"Finally," Chris looked at Filch, who still had a flattering smile on his face, and said with disgust, "I was surprised to find that among the faculty and staff of Hogwarts, there is such a low-level Squib. biological existence, which is extremely unreasonable and a waste of resources.

From this incident, I also understood. The original faculty system built by Principal Dumbledore still had obvious flaws, which allowed some ineffective people to hide among the faculty and staff and suck the blood of Hogwarts. So I decided to fire all the squibs at Hogwarts and review all the current staff at Hogwarts. If anyone is found to be incompetent or slack at work, he will be dismissed! "

As soon as these words came out, the professors who were still sitting on the faculty seats suddenly changed their faces. From Chris's words, they smelled an ominous smell.

Chris's move is obviously to eliminate dissidents!

The smile on Filch's face froze. He couldn't believe what he heard. He shook his head and said to Chris on the stage:

"You...you are joking, right? It must be true, right? You know I have been working at Hogwarts for more than twenty years! You can't..."

"Throw him out!"

Chris said coldly.

Then several of his attendants immediately moved out and escorted Filch out of the auditorium.

Watching Filch being dragged out of the auditorium screaming, the expression on Chris's face became slightly better.

In his opinion, things like squibs are simply the most inferior existence in the world, even worse than Muggles and those hybrid wizards who don't know what kind of magical animal blood they have mixed with them.

At least the Muggles remained ignorant and wouldn't cause any trouble. Magical animal hybrid wizards also have the ability to cast spells and can participate in the construction of the wizarding world.

And the squibs are a complete trouble!

They are parasites of society. Not only can they not make any contribution to the wizarding society, they also lie on the body of society and suck its blood!

It would be better if all this kind of people died!

Taking a deep breath, Chris felt that the air in the entire auditorium smelled a lot better since the squib left!

"Okay, classmates." Chris continued to say with a smile, "Then please enjoy this banquet and eat!"

Following Chris's order, various delicacies appeared on the long tables of each college.

The richness of the dishes and the grand scale were far greater than any banquet held in the Hogwarts Great Hall before.

But at this moment, facing such a gluttonous feast, no one had much appetite.

Because they all know that the coming days will be difficult!
