Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard - Chapter 992

Although Kyle was not very willing to take the train, talking and laughing with Kangna along the way was not particularly boring.

Professor Sasia would occasionally join in, but more often than not, she still liked to quietly watch the scenery flashing past the car window, as if she was nostalgic for the scene when she was a student at Hogwarts.

In the evening, the train stopped next to the Hogsmeade platform on time.

Hagrid came over carrying an oil lamp and shouted for the first years to come over to him.

As usual, he needs to take the new students across the river to the castle.

“Long time no see, Hagrid!” Kyle stuck his head out of the car window and greeted him.

“Long time no see.” Hagrid also waved happily.

“I’ve been waiting for you all day, but I didn’t expect you to choose to come to school by train. Didn’t you always say that the train is too slow and boring?”

“What I’m saying is, riding the train alone is boring.” Kyle corrected,

At this time, Kangna leaned out of the car window and waved to Hagrid.

“Oh, Connor.” Hagrid said happily, “Minerva told me. Congratulations on becoming an assistant teacher at Hogwarts.”

“Thank you.” Kangna smiled.

“By the way, Hagrid, you just said you were waiting for me for a day. What’s the matter?” Kyle looked at him and asked: “Why don’t you use the parchment I gave you? You just need to write on it and I will Can see it.”

“It’s nothing, I just want to tell you good news.” Hagrid smiled even more happily, stepped forward and lowered his voice: “But now that you are here, you’d better wait until Minerva tells you personally. I dare you You’ll definitely be jumping for joy.”

“Jumping for joy—”

Kyle raised his eyebrows, “Why, the school is going to give me a salary increase.”

? “

“No.” Hagrid shook his head. “Professors all have the same salary. You can only get a salary increase after you become the dean.”

“That means I become the dean?”

“”.-” Hagrid was silent for a moment, “Kyle, if you need galleons, I can lend them to you. “

“Gallon? I don’t need it.”

“Then why can you only think of a salary increase?”

“Because this is the only thing that can make me jump for joy.”

Hagrid fell into silence again, and with him was Sasia in the carriage.

But it should be said that a salary increase does make people happy.

“Forget it, you’ll know when the time comes. Also, Bathsheda brought you a gift, and I put it in the cabinet for you.” Hagrid left after saying that. He needed to get the new students to the ship as soon as possible.

Kyle, Connor, and Sasia entered Hogwarts in a carriage with most of the students.

Connor looked very curious about the good news from Hagrid and kept guessing what it was.

Now it is confirmed that there is no salary increase. If there is a promotion – I have not heard that there is a vacancy for the position of dean.

Although Snape was briefly expelled as Head of Slytherin, Minerva McGonagall immediately rehired him as Headmaster of Hogwarts after the two hearings.

Still the Head of Slytherin and Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

It can’t be that after Minerva McGonagall becomes the principal, she must hand over the vacant Gryffindor principal to Kyle.

But he’s not a Gryffindor graduate either.

“You really should have asked Hagrid more at that time.” Kangna couldn’t help but said, “If you ask again, he might have said it accidentally.”

Now it seems that many people know how to get secrets from Hagrid.

“It doesn’t matter.” Kyle smiled and said, “Actually, he has already said it.”

“Ah?” Kangna was stunned for a moment, “Why didn’t I know?”

“Didn’t he tell us that Professor Babuling is back?”

At this time, the carriage suddenly stopped.

They have arrived, and in front of them is the open door of Hogwarts Castle. Principal McGonagall is standing at the front.

Behind them were Sprout, Snape, Slughorn, and Flitwick, who was blocked behind someone’s legs.

Only the tips of a few strands of hair were faintly exposed.

Kyle, who was in the carriage, did not continue talking. He was the first to jump out of the carriage and helped Sasia down with Kang Na.

The three of them walked up the stone steps.

“Welcome to join you, Professor.” Minerva McGonagall happily stepped forward and hugged Sasia.

Snape, Flitwick and Sprout looked excited too.

Although Hogwarts ranks almost at the bottom of all magic schools, there are many excellent professors here.

This new Potions professor alone can make the remaining magic school principals so sour that they eat lemons like crazy.

Slughorn was also very excited. When he came over, the meat on his stomach trembled.

“Horace Slughorn, it’s been an honor to serve with you.”

“I know, Armando told me once that he found a great Potions Professor.”

At this time, the flesh on Slughorn’s face also began to tremble.

While they were talking, Kyle and Kangna did not choose to stay, but walked into the auditorium together. “You haven’t told me what the good news is yet.”

“Didn’t I tell you?” Kyle looked around in the auditorium, as if he was looking for something.

“Have you forgotten? The carriage stopped just as you were about to say it.”

“Okay…” Kyle looked around and looked back, “But now these are just my guesses. I’m not sure. I’ll wait for the principal to announce it at the opening banquet later.”

Connor muttered something under her breath and had to think carefully again about why Professor Babling’s return to Hogwarts was good news.

Isn’t Kyle the ancient rune professor now?

And this course doesn’t seem to require two professors.

Kangna didn’t think about it for too long. A few minutes later, Sasia and Principal McGonagall walked into the auditorium together and sat in the two seats in the middle of the teacher’s chair.

Then came Professor Flitwick, and two rows of freshmen following him.

Kyle sat watching with interest.

Speaking of which, this year is the first time he has truly attended the opening banquet as a professor.

Not counting last year, although he was also sitting on the teacher’s bench at that time, his identity was Dumbledore.

The Sorting Hat’s song made the freshmen’s eyes widen as always, and it also made the freshmen of Muggle origin experience the magic of magic for the first time.

Afterwards, Professor Flitwick presided over the sorting ceremony.

“Where did you go during your vacation?” Hagrid walked in from the side door and sat down next to Kyle.

“I heard from Bill that he never saw you.”

“Trying a new spell,” Kyle said.

“That’s it, but I think you can come back more often to see the fire in the garden during your next vacation1

His voice suddenly disappeared. Or maybe Kyle used the earplugs to listen to the spell in time.

Although Hagrid had lowered his voice as much as possible, he had forgotten his identity as a half-giant.

Even if the voice is deliberately lowered, it will still sound loud to others.

Kyle didn’t want too many people to know that the fire dragon that suddenly appeared that day was raised by him.

Even if some people have already guessed the truth, as long as he doesn’t tell it, the truth will always remain a guess.

Of course, if someone is too curious and wants to sneak into the garden to have a look, Kyle won’t stop him.

As long as he can defeat the grumpy Hungarian Autumn Bee.

Kyle subconsciously turned his head and looked at the other side of the table, just in time to see Snape turn his face elsewhere.

“I’ve read in books that when raising fire dragons, you need to get close to them all the time, otherwise those big guys will soon forget about you.”

Hagrid on the side did not notice what Kyle had done and was still talking to himself.

“Fire dragons are very smart, but sometimes they are stupid. You have to appear in front of them several times before they are regarded as enemies.”

“Don’t worry, I know it well.” Kyle nodded, just in time to see an extra piece of golden fried pork chop on the golden plate.

While he was talking to Hagrid, the sorting ceremony had ended and it was now dinner time.

The freshman dinner is considered the grandest banquet at Hogwarts. At this time of year, the house elves in the kitchen will try their best to prepare this sumptuous meal.

There seems to be more French food this year.

Kyle saw the fish soup and red wine beef. The taste was not as good as the authentic French food he had eaten at Beauxbatons, but it was not much better.

Soon, the desserts on the plates disappeared, and everyone put down their tableware.

Minerva McGonagall stood up from behind the table, and the laughter that echoed in the auditorium almost immediately fell silent.

“Welcome all freshmen to Hogwarts, and of course, every senior student. Before the banquet ends, I have something else to announce.—·—

“First of all, Mr. Filch, the administrator, asked me to tell you that nothing purchased from Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes is allowed to be brought into the school.

“And Quidditch tryouts—.”

Compared to Dumbledore, Principal McGonagall’s words were more concise, just like her resolute character.

After talking about the precautions, she grandly introduced Sasia, the new potions professor, and Kangna, the teaching assistant.

Kyle watched as Kangna stood up, her hands clenched tightly into fists, and her whole body tensed, as if she was buckling the castle through her shoes.

He wanted to laugh a little, but he held it back because he was afraid of settling accounts with his wife.

The students below had two different behaviors after hearing Sasia’s name.

One clapped calmly and politely, while the other opened his mouth in surprise and stretched his head to look at the teacher’s chair.

Obviously, the former are people who don’t know Sasia.

This is not surprising, Sacia is not Dumbledore, especially in recent decades, she has rarely appeared outside of St. Mary’s. Naturally, many people have not heard of her.

Sasia acted very calmly, waved her hand and sat down. When Kangna saw it, she also hurriedly sat down.

Then she started staring at Principal McGonagall.

She was also thinking about another thing, which was the good news she had guessed along the way.

If there is anything unusual, Principal McGonagall will definitely announce it at the most crowded opening party.

“In the meantime, I have some good news to announce.”

Minerva McGonagall’s voice silenced the buzzing auditorium again.

“This year, Hogwarts will add a new class – Alchemy class!”

“Alchemy class?”

“Alchemy class?”

The word echoed throughout the auditorium, and everyone wondered if they had heard it correctly.

The Hogwarts curriculum has been going on for centuries, so why is there suddenly a new class?

However, unlike what was expected, the students did not show any joy. Instead, most of them frowned.

“But Headmaster, if a new course is added, what will happen to our exams?” A fifth-year Ravenclaw asked loudly.

He needs to take the 0.W.L. exam this year. If the new course is also included, it is likely to affect his grades.

“Don’t worry about that.”

Headmaster McGonagall could only use a louder voice to suppress the noisy buzz below, “The exam subjects are the same as before. In fact, alchemy classes will only appear in the third grade.

“I believe those third-year students must have noticed that there is an additional alchemy class option in the course schedule this year.”

Hearing the headmaster say this, the fifth-year and seventh-year students were relieved.

As long as it does not affect their exams, it’s fine.

“But Headmaster, where is our new professor. “Ginny couldn’t help asking.

She just looked around, except for Sassia and Connor, there were no new faces in the teacher’s seat, and they all taught potions. One was responsible for the fifth and seventh grades, and the other was responsible for the first and second grades.

Who was the professor who taught the alchemy class?

Compared to the puzzled Ginny, Connor thought of something the moment she heard the name of the alchemy class, and immediately looked at Kyle.

“The professor in charge of the alchemy class is here.” Headmaster McGonagall smiled.

Kyle also stood up as Headmaster McGonagall extended her hand, as if he had known it for a long time.

When Hagrid mentioned that Professor Babling was back, he had already guessed it.

Professor Babling would definitely teach ancient runes when she came back, and this course did not require two professors at all.

Add to that the good news from Hagrid, and the answer was clear at a glance.

He was still a professor, but he had to change a subject, which was the newly added alchemy class.

But what puzzled Kyle was that he did not receive Letter from Hogwarts.

Changing subjects requires not only advance preparation, but also the confirmation of new textbooks, so Hogwarts cannot fail to notify the professor in advance.

Kyle is sure that he has not received any letter from Hogwarts during this holiday.

Even though he has been busy with the Horcrux spell, he has not locked himself up, and he can still receive letters.

But there is only one letter from Hogwarts, which is the letter asking him to take the train with Sassia, and nothing else.

But with Minerva McGonagall’s character, she should not make such a low-level mistake.

This is why Kyle didn’t tell Connor just now.

There was a thunderous applause in the hall, even louder than when Sassia was introduced just now.

Maybe this is also related to the fact that most students know Kyle. After all, he is the only professor who was hired right after graduation, and almost all students above the third grade know Kyle.
