MTL - Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard-Chapter 18 Sound of nature

Chapter 18 The Sound of Nature

 The whole auditorium was silent.

People from other grades were waiting to watch the play, while the freshmen stared nervously at the dirty and torn hat, as if a giant monster would jump out of it in the next second.

Then, the hat suddenly began to twist, the tip of the hat swayed from side to side, and the brim of the hat on both sides undulated up and down, as if dancing.

 But the more Kyle looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.

How to put it this way, I don’t know who designed this set of movements. It looks like some kind of flat fish that likes to eat colleagues, but the movements are a bit stiffer and not as smooth as others.

 In addition, the long one is also a bit ugly.

The Sorting Hat probably also knew that dancing was not its strong point, so it quickly opened a mouth-like opening and started humming.

  “I am a hat.

  But don’t underestimate my appearance.

 I was born a thousand years ago.

 Have seen the changes in the world.

 I crossed the wilderness quagmire.

Also walked along the forest river.

 Come and put it on me.

 Find the most suitable college.

If you long for strength, then go to Gryffindor. They are brave, righteous and courageous, and can discover the courage buried deep in your heart.

Perhaps you will join Slytherin. They are strong, calm, elegant and self-possessed. There is no need to hide your ambitions and desire for power here, because everyone here is the same as you.

Hufflepuff is upright and loyal, tough and honest. Come here, you will find the most trustworthy partner.

There is also Ravenclaw, if you have extraordinary wisdom and shrewd mind, then please do not hesitate, there are fellow travelers like you there.

 Come and put it on me.

 Don't worry and be afraid.

 I will tell you the desires of your heart. "

 At the end of the song, there was thunderous applause. It was obvious that the little wizards in the magic world were very polite.

The Sorting Hat bowed to the four dining tables one by one, and then stood still.

 …

Although the song of the Sorting Hat is a bit hard to describe, the freshmen can basically understand it. The so-called sorting should be done by wearing this hat.

This made many people secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

 Compared with the rumors I heard before, wearing a hat is not that easy.

It’s just that the hat is a little dirty, a little old, a little ugly, it doesn’t matter, it’s just for a moment anyway, and you don’t have to wear it all the time.

 Professor McGonagall walked forward quickly, holding a piece of parchment in her hand.

"Whoever's name I call now will put on his hat, sit on the stool, and wait for the sorting."

 Professor McGonagall glanced at the parchment.

 “Thomas Albride.”

 A blond boy held his head high, walked over quickly and put on his hat. After a while...

 “Ravenclaw!” shouted the Sorting Hat.

The boy also looked very satisfied. After taking off the Sorting Hat, he couldn't wait to walk to the long table of Ravenclaw, which was the place where the applause was the loudest in the auditorium at the moment.

 “Marietta Acmo!”

 A little girl ran up happily, picked up the sorting hat and put it on.

 “Ravenclaw!”

 “Oh…that’s great!”

The first two freshmen were both Ravenclaws, which made the eaglets extremely excited, and the enthusiastic cheers seemed to lift the ceiling.

 “Katie Bell!”

This time it was also a little girl who ran up in a panic and put the sorting hat on her head. Maybe it was because she was too nervous. When she put on the hat, she used too much force, causing her whole head to poke into the hat, leaving only a neck outside.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

 There was a burst of laughter in the auditorium.

Professor McGonagall sighed when she saw this, and quickly stepped forward to help tidy up.

 “Thank you, Little Grid, I almost thought I was going to burst.”

 The Sorting Hat nodded to Professor McGonagall: "Without a doubt, Gryffindor!"

At the far left of the auditorium, a warm cheer suddenly erupted from the Gryffindor table!

Fred and George stood on the stools, whistling excitedly, and it was obvious that they really liked this little girl.

Katie Bell ran away with a red face.

The sorting continued, but in order to prevent what happened just now, Professor McGonagall felt that it was better for him to preside over it, so he did not step aside as before, but stood behind the four-corner stool, holding the sorting hat in one hand. Holding the parchment in one hand.

 “Cho.Chang!”（Cho.Chang）

 An Asian girl slowly walked to the four-corner stool and sat down. Professor McGonagall stood behind her and gently placed the Sorting Hat on her head.

 “Ravenclaw!”

"oh!"

As the Sorting Hat called out the name of the same house for the third time, the eaglets went completely crazy. Some people stood on stools and danced with their feet in front of the teachers and students of the school. Some people picked up the decorative flowers on the dining table and threw them to the ceiling with excitement.

They put aside their usually proud composure and cheered wantonly.

“Three, the branching has just begun, and we already have three new students!”

 “Ravenclaw, this year will definitely rise!”

 …

The professors on the stage didn’t stop him, and just watched with a smile. It wasn’t until they started throwing plates that Professor McGonagall stood up with a straight face.

 The effect is outstanding.

　　After seeing Professor McGonagall, the eaglets felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on their heads. They calmed down a lot, transformed from eagles into quails, and sat back on the dining table in an orderly manner.

Professor McGonagall's expression improved a lot and she looked at the parchment again.

 “Omidfroll!”

 …

 “Slytherin!”

 …

 The number of new students is getting smaller and smaller.

Kyle stood in the crowd, patiently waiting for his name to be called, but somehow he always felt a tingle on his back, as if someone was constantly poking him with a needle.

Kyle turned his head subconsciously, and saw Kangna, whose face was red and staring at him fiercely.

 But unlike before, this time I was angry.

The little girl who was originally shy seemed to have changed into a different person at this time. Her small white teeth were grinding loudly, as if she would pounce on him and bite him at any time.

 “Ahem…Oh, the weather is so nice.”

Kyle laughed twice, as if he didn't see anything, and turned his head back pretending to be calm.

 After that, he moved his steps lightly and squeezed forward quietly, trying to stay as far away from Kangna as possible.

 Unfortunately, things didn't work as expected. There was only such a big place here, and there weren't many people there, so there was no place to hide. No matter where he ran, Kangna could always see him.

The feeling of a light on my back has never gone away.

 Fortunately at this moment, a voice suddenly came.

 “Kelchouba!”

For the first time, Kyle felt that Professor McGonagall's voice was so beautiful, like the sound of nature, and like an angel who gave people salvation.

 Seriously, if he could re-elect the headmaster, he would definitely choose Professor McGonagall.
