Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 397

c382 This is us Gryffindor!

Even though she knew she was not welcome, the pink toad still shamelessly performed for a long time before finally sitting back down with unfulfilled satisfaction.

During the whole process, Professor Dumbledore had been listening to her attentively, but the other professors did not give Umbridge a good look.

Professor McGonagall’s two black eyebrows knitted together tightly, and the lion turned into an eagle in a short time.

Professor Snape sneered unabashedly, and every student below could notice his impatience.

Even the good old Professor Flitwick had begun to admire his wand, with an impatient look on his face for the first time.

Occasionally when he glanced at Umbridge, there was obvious hatred in his eyes.

This is a very strange thing. You must know that Professor Flitwick has always been the best-tempered professor in the entire Hogwarts, even better than Professor Sprout.

Professor Sprout would occasionally get angry because students didn’t value herbs, but no one had ever seen Professor Flitwick angry.

As for the students, this group of young wizards were already lying on the table doing their own things, and their attention drifted to Avalon.

Except for the fact that everyone took it seriously when Umbridge said she was going to censor the professor, and excitedly fantasized about the professor they hated being censored, who would listen to such a boring speech seriously?

When Umbridge finally sat down, Professor Dumbledore was the first to applaud, but the others only clapped once or twice before putting their hands down.

“A very wonderful speech,” Professor Dumbledore said with a normal expression on his face.

“It reminds me of the time when I first became principal…”

It has to be said that the principal is the principal, and he could make the speech as boring as that of the pink toad come true.

So why else would he be the principal? This is called level!

After singing the school song, the opening dinner finally ended.

This year, Harry couldn’t just take a shortcut back to the common room with Hermione.

As a prefect, she had to guide the new students to Gryffindor Tower.

And looking at Neville’s panic and lack of confidence, Harry felt that he had to shoulder all the work by himself.

When Harry first entered the school, it was Prefect Percy who was responsible for guiding the new Gryffindor students.

However, Percy’s leadership was really boring. He didn’t do anything extra, he just took the new students to the common room and dismissed them.

How can this be done? Cultivating students’ sense of college honor should obviously start with freshmen!

Harry led the students all the way through the corridors, up the steps, through the hidden door, and also taught Peeves a lesson when he wanted to sneak attack the new Gryffindor students.

I don’t know if this is Peeves’ repertoire. Basically, Peeves comes every year to target new Gryffindor students.

But this year, Peeves probably didn’t pay attention to who the prefect was, so he was turned into a ball by Harry’s magic and was knocked far away.

This filled the eyes of the freshmen with admiration. This senior is so cool!

Especially when there is a senior next to her who seems to be at a loss with a simple expression on her face… This makes the senior who leads the team look even more elegant.

After entering the common room, Harry did not immediately disband the team, but began to lead the new students to visit the Gryffindor common room and introduce the internal layout.

Especially the portraits on the wall in the lounge were the focus of Harry’s description.

After all, the wizards whose portraits can be hung on the wall of the common room are all from Gryffindor, and they have become famous after graduation. They are the most precious spiritual wealth of Gryffindor House.

Percy’s method of leading the new students was simply too low. Harry felt that his method could better strengthen the new students’ sense of identity and honor for Gryffindor.

And this move was indeed effective. Along the way, Harley had already sensed part of the anchor coming from the group of freshmen in front of her.

“What is the symbol of Gryffindor House?”

After leading the freshmen around the common room, Harley stood in front of the fireplace, facing the freshmen below whose enthusiasm had been ignited.

“It’s the lion! The lion, the king of beasts, the lion that symbolizes our courage and risk-taking characteristics!”

“The representative colors of Gryffindor House are gold and red, which represent the element of fire in the alchemical system, corresponding to the wind of Ravenclaw, the earth of Hufflepuff, and the water of Slytherin.”

“This also means that our Gryffindor feelings are as hot as fire, we dare to love and hate, we value friendship, and we burn like a flame when facing enemies.”

“As Gryffindor students, I hope you can discover the bravery buried deep in your heart, demonstrate your own courage, courage and boldness, prove that Gryffindor House is outstanding, and prove that you are a qualified character. Llanffindor!”

“Of course,” Harley paused, “bravery does not mean recklessness, so you must think more before doing things.”

“I don’t want to hear people from other houses making fun of Gryffindor students every day, saying that Gryffindor students are a bunch of stupid lions.”

“However, as long as what you decide to do is right, then go ahead and do it boldly. Gryffindor will always be your strongest support!”

After some chicken soup, these freshmen were very excited, and the sleepiness after eating had disappeared.

Although these excitements can only last for a few days, and then they will be wiped out by the different styles of professors at Hogwarts.

But this does not prevent Harley’s glorious image from leaving permanent traces and anchors in their hearts.

The other students in the Gryffindor common room who were doing their homework were dumbfounded, and the pens in their hands stopped unconsciously.

Can you still play like this when the prefects are leading the new students? Why was my former prefect so useless?

“Harry is much better as a prefect than you were back then.” Fred was lying on the table doing homework.

When he noticed the chicken soup Harley was feeding the freshmen, he poked Angelina’s arm next to him.

“Shut up!” Angelina glared at Fred fiercely and pinched his inner thigh hard.

Fred suddenly screamed fiercely and hurriedly apologized to Angelina.

(Thanks to “Happy Xiao Qin” for the tip!)

(ps. In fact, the English name for Gryffindor is Gryffindor. The first half of the word gryffin means Gryffin, which is a gryphon. It is a half-lion, half-eagle creature in Greek mythology, which is a griffin. .So the author is a little confused as to why the symbol of Gryffindor is a lion. Judging from the name, shouldn’t it be a gryphon?) (End of this chapter)
