HP's Adagio Minor

Chapter 14 [14]

Suolva was originally a little-known small village, but because it is very close to Durmstrang, it has gradually become a gathering place for wizards.The people here are best at warming spells and thawing spells, especially in the cold winter, they have to throw these spells on their bodies or other things every once in a while.

Lola came to the freshman reception in the village and town, and straightened her hair that was blown tousled by the strong wind, "Hi, may I ask..."

"Freshmen sign the roster of students. The black one is the registration on campus, and then they receive a student handbook. Remember to read the contents inside."

A senior student flipped through the book and said without raising his head.Lola noticed a double-headed eagle pinned to his collar—the logo of the Durmstrang Student Union.

After Lola signed her name, the parchment in her hand flew to the opposite side with a wave of her wand.

"...Girl?" Glancing at the signature, the other party raised his head in surprise.

"Yes, sir. My name is Lola Barodis."

"Ivano Frankovsk, nice to meet you." The boy adjusted his glasses, looking a little uncomfortable, "Your luggage will be sent directly to the room, and senior students will accompany you into the school later, you You can sit in the lounge for a while."

He pointed to the door on the side, and there seemed to be several other freshmen sitting inside.

"Okay, and I would like to ask, have you ever received a freshman, his name is Anos von Stillland, he is my friend."

Frankovsk looked through the list of students, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen this name before, maybe your friend chose another way to enter the school... Matvey, you came just in time!"

The person who came was tall, wearing a large dark windproof robe and a windproof cap of the same color, "This is the third batch of freshmen today, and there are quite a lot of people enrolled this year... I said, when can I give the reindeer The pulley is pressed against a ceiling or something, too much wind makes my head hurt!"

He pulled the brim of his hat and yelled into the room, "Okay, first-year freshmen, gather here!"

Several little boys ran out quickly, with excited expressions on their faces, and one of them almost slipped because he ran too fast.Lola gave him a hand, and the other said thank you gratefully, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Be careful, keep up!" Matvey strode out, Lola and the others hurriedly chased after him, "I am Matvey Romanov, the prefect of the fifth grade, and I will take everyone to enter on a reindeer pulley." School, the environment here is a bit cold, I hope you can adapt as soon as possible."

Lola and a few freshmen climbed onto the tackle without seeing a single reindeer pulling the cart.The bottom of the reindeer slide is very smooth, similar to a sleigh car. When there is no snow, it relies on magic to suspend the ground and can take five or six people.

The tackle shuttled smoothly among the trees, and Mavit introduced the general matters of the school as usual.

"Welcome to Durmstrang. Before that, you should be prepared to face the harsh environment. There will be some sunshine in spring and autumn, and almost none in winter. At that time, most outdoor activities will be suspended... …In the next semester, you can apply for the school’s Floo network, teleport to the main entrance through the fireplace, and enter the school directly; or take the flying horse outside the town to enter the animal riding area at the back gate of the school, and I will show you around the school later.”

Matvei said a lot, and several freshmen blushed. They couldn't restrain their excitement for the rest of the time, and chatted in a low voice.

"Good day, Mr. Romanov."

Matvey met Lola's red smiling face, and he quickly realized, "It's surprising, Miss Barodis? I remember the last time we met was at the Egil singing party two years ago."

"Yes, you can call me Lola."

"Well, Lola, you are really special! I didn't expect that you would come to Durmstrang to study. This place has been occupied by naughty ghosts for many years. I remember there was a senior in my first grade. , but she dropped out of school and got married before she graduated... By the way, in school, you can directly address the first or last name, and senior students can be called seniors. So, Lola is now my school girl, this word I finally got a chance to use it."

Along the way, Matvey chatted with Lola. His tone of voice was cheerful like that of a teenager. The other boys also looked at Lolado a few times.

??

Durmstrang School of Magic is one of the three famous schools in Europe. The main entrance of the school is a tall and sharp black river valley, with thick stone walls built on its extension, which looks like a fortress from a distance. (Of course, Durmstrang has put up all kinds of spell barriers thirty miles away, so from the perspective of Muggles, it is deserted and uninhabited except for the low birch forest.)

Enter the gate, bypass the giant double-headed eagle statue, and walk down the stairs to the front hall. There are four fireplaces connected to the international flyway network on each side for students to enter the school.Going further, you can really enter the school hall inside the valley. The top of the irregular ceiling is inlaid with magic crystals as many as stars, making the whole hall bright and dazzling.

Through the perforated column corridor in the north, you can see the Kebne Snow Mountain in the distance. Its reflection is reflected on the vast lake. The lake surface will be covered with thick ice in winter, and there are underground rivers connecting with it at the bottom of the lake—— Durmstrang's Quidditch practice range and flying lessons unfold right above the frozen lake.

"Remember to be careful, if you fall, you will fall into the icy cold lake." Matvey added after a pause, "Or on the hard as hell ice, you can break your hands or feet Everyday meal."

Walk along the perforated colonnade to reach the west tower.

The west tower is called the student tower, which has nine floors. It is built on the mountain wall next to the west side of the river valley. The interior has been enchanted, so the living space is very large.The first floor of the tower is connected to the school hall, and has a student tea room, a dedicated office for the student union, a meeting room and an indoor hot spring bath that is open regularly.

The remaining floors are distributed according to grades, and each floor has a common room, study room, prefect lounge and several student dormitories.Since most of Durmstrang's students are boys, the dormitories are not separated into male and female passages, but are directly divided into independent female dormitories in the attic on the top floor, but there is no one living there all year round.

The east tower on the other side of the lake is slightly smaller, and is also connected by a porous column corridor. This is where the teachers' dormitories and offices are located, and is called the teacher's tower.

The freshmen walked around the student tower and returned to the hall along the dark corridor.

Only then did Lola notice that the interior of the stone walls around the hall had been hollowed out, and the neatly arranged corridors of stone pillars led to the classrooms of various subjects.There is a gate at the bottom of the stone wall. On the left is the library, which is divided into a self-study area and a borrowing area. It is said that the innermost book collection area has ten floors underground, but it is not open to the public. At least one teacher is required to borrow books there. Recommended by teachers and approved by the principal.

On the right is the student dining room, which divides dining areas according to grades, and even opened up a separate dining room for teachers and student unions, where the layout is more gorgeous and exquisite.

But this is not the final destination of this 'dark corridor'.If you continue to go forward, after passing the medical room and two auditoriums, you can see an iron gate, and the tunnel inside leads to the old school site of Durmstrang - it is a four-story building The old castle was destroyed a few years ago and is still being rebuilt - the basement of the castle has the strictest magic protection area, and the students' black magic courses are taught there.

"Although the black magic class is a special feature of our school, no student is allowed to enter the tunnel without the company of a teacher or senior prefect." Matvey said seriously, "Once found out, they will be expelled from school, so, Don't go exploring out of curiosity."

After seeing the freshmen nodding, Matvey continued, "Come here, let's go upstairs from here. In addition to a few classrooms, there are also the principal's office and the honor room on the second floor..."

Lola followed the team up the stairs next to the hall, and along the way, she could see various magical portraits hanging on the walls.Then they came to the Hall of Honor—a brightly lit room in which dozens of glass windows are neatly arranged, displaying the honorary medals, awards and trophies that Durmstrang has won in various periods.The golden shimmering hue dazzles almost everyone's eyes.

"Oh, my God of Magic! There are a lot of new students here. Look at your short and stupid looks. How do you know how outstanding and proud the predecessors of Durmstrang are!"

A sudden voice came from a mirror above the heads of the crowd. The circular mirror was inlaid in the center of the ceiling, "I am the mirror spirit of the mirror of Yorok. The reason why I can live forever is because The creation of Durmstrang, so it's only fitting that I introduce you ignorant little fellows to the greatness of this school..."

"This is what every new student must listen to when entering the school, and it is stipulated by the principal himself." Matvey explained briefly, and then suggested, "If you are tired from standing, you can sit on the ground, anyway, this mirror does not make this room difficult." I have finished talking about everything that can be said in the room, and I will not let you leave."

The freshmen look at me and I look at you, and they all feel that it is about the dignity of the family, and no one chooses to sit and listen.Matvey shook his head helplessly, and leaned against the already closed and locked door, wanting to cry in his heart—Merlin, you must know that this was the third time he had heard these gossips today.

The Mirror of Yorok first started from the beginning of the establishment of the school, telling all the glories of the past, and even the enrollment time of each principal, and then it introduced the origin of each trophy and the honor The winner's family background, title, honorary title, and the high level of compliments are eye-opening.

Lola felt that the soles of her feet were hurting badly. She moved her toes slightly, but she didn't dare to move her toes a lot, because the other people around her were all fascinated by the sound, and seemed to be immersed in the strong sense of honor of this school.

Lola turned her head and found a boy next to her staring at her.

"Why are you looking at me?" Lola asked softly.

At the same time, Jingling's exaggerated and intoxicated voice squeezed into everyone's ears, "... oh, I must say this is one of the most outstanding figures in the past 300 years - Ganiercha Barodi Si, what a legendary name..."

"That's your ancestor, isn't it?" the boy whispered, he was the boy who was lifted up by Lola just now, and now he was full of respect, "So the Barodis family was so powerful before."

"what"

"look!"

Lola followed the boy's hand and looked towards the window with the number B-III. Almost all the medal winners in it came from one family - Barodis.Lola stared blankly at every familiar and unfamiliar name, as well as various honorary titles: 'Star of the Academy', 'First Prize Winner of the Black Magic Competition', 'Special Honorary Award of the Society for Magical Research', 'Winner of the Magic Cross'...

"...Since then, almost every generation of Barodis will contribute to the honor of Durmstrang. This is a family rich in black magic talent, which is the pride of Durmstrang, but unfortunately How heartbreaking it was destroyed 70 years ago at the hands of a stupid and arrogant man!"

The spirit of the mirror suddenly became very excited, and the entire mirror flowed like a wave, "Gellert Greenwald, this idealistic idiot, is the one who caused the black magic school to decline again, and let the self-proclaimed decent people Since then, I have blinded my eyes..."

After Jingling finished speaking, Lola still couldn't believe it. She never knew that her family had such glory and endured such hardships. Compared with the current situation of the family, these histories are even more unreal stand up.

"Vichy Tork, salute your ancestors, Miss Lola Barodis."

"Are you from the Tork family? Have we met?"

"Yes, I once saw you at a tea party, and my sister once said that you are extremely talented in magic..." Tork said cautiously, "Although you will no longer attend the party, I did not expect to be with you Grade study, please, please don't be discouraged by those fallacies..."

Lola returned a social smile, but remembered the glory of the family once brought by the black magic talent, and the subsequent destruction, and now she is also called the "terrible black witch" because of this talent, and her mood suddenly changed. Very complicated.

Vichy Tolk looked at Lola's slightly frowning brows, couldn't help but blushed because of nervousness, and stammered and couldn't speak the next words.

"Follow up!"

In Matvey's greeting, Lola found herself lagging behind, and she trotted forward.The eyes of the freshmen around her also became a little different. They were no longer purely curious, but mixed with admiration, embarrassment, and even faint disdain and suspicion, which made her feel restrained and uneasy.

The honor of the ancestors of the Barodis family comes first, and as a descendant, I, a weak and ignorant girl, is undoubtedly underestimated.
