Chapter 11: In The Selection Of First-Year Hidden Seniors, You Start With Avada?
Kyle went to the Slytherin table. It was different from the attitude of welcoming new students before. All the Slytherins were indifferent to Kyle joining. These little snakes, most of whom came from pureblood families, didn't remember Kyle being at past pureblood family gatherings. In fact, Kyle's deeds are only circulated in a small circle among the upper echelons of the magic world. No one dared to announce it. Needless to say, the Daily Prophet is a politically oriented newspaper. They just ignored Kyle for fear of causing panic. On the contrary, several newspapers or magazines that did not sell well in the wizarding world reported the deeds of "The Blood Demon in Knockturn Alley." It's just that the description is too exaggerated and the audience is too small. The attention hadn't increased yet, and readers were diverted by gossip about one wizard's husband being snatched away by another.
Soon, the sorting ceremony was over, and all newly enrolled young wizards were assigned to their respective houses. Dumbledore stood up. "Welcome everyone to Hogwarts to start a new school year," he said. "Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words. That is: fool! Sneeze! Scum! Twist! Thank you all!" After these few confusing words, countless delicacies appeared on the table. The little wizards who were already hungry couldn't wait to start eating. After dinner, after listening to Dumbledore babble about a bunch of Hogwarts rules, and listening to the twins sing the school song to the tune of the funeral march, the little wizards of the four houses went back to their dormitories.
The Slytherin sleeping quarters are located in the basement of the castle, damp and dark. Through the ceiling of the common room, you can even see the scene in the black lake. "Okay, is everyone here?" Old Bat Snape was already waiting in the common room, impatient, especially after seeing Kyle being so leisurely. The mood was even worse! Draw a circle on the ground with the wand. "Miss Farley, the rest will be up to you to host!" "Yes!" Gemma Farley, the female prefect of the fifth grade, stood up after hearing the words. "Guys, I think you should have heard about it from your parents before you entered school. We Slytherins have always practiced the hidden prefect system! Each grade has a prefect responsible for managing the students in his grade. Although this kind of prefect will not be recognized by the school, he can have his own independent dormitory."
Gemma Farley looked around, especially at the young wizards who had just entered school. "Then, let's start with first grade! Students who want to run for first-year hidden seniors, please stand in the circle!" The voice had just fallen. Malfoy immediately stepped into the circle, followed by his two followers. Immediately after, Theodore Knott and more! Scattered, a dozen or so people stood in the circle. In the end, even Pansy Parkinson stepped into the circle. Ambitious, shrewd, honor-oriented, judging the situation, playing it safe, and winning first – this is a Slytherin tradition.
In the face of honor, no little wizard from a pure-blood family would shrink back. Basically, all the freshmen came to the circle. Kyle thought for a while and also stood in the circle. It didn't matter to him whether he was a prefect or not. He had a long list of plans to complete before coming to Hogwarts, and he was too busy to care about managing others. However, a separate bedroom was still very convenient.
"Okay, I announce, the selection begins!" Seeing that no one else entered, the female prefect, Gemma Farley, announced the start of the ceremony simply and neatly. As soon as she spoke, everyone in the circle focused their attention on Kyle. "I don't know why the Sorting Hat placed you in Slytherin," Draco Malfoy remarked. "However, here is the world of pure blood!" With a helper by his side, Draco felt more confident. He raised his chin slightly, wearing a haughty expression.
The other first-year Slytherins also held their wands and surrounded Kyle indistinctly. Excluded! Kyle touched the two Pokémon on his shoulders, signaling them to go to the side and rest. With a sunny smile, he took out the wand he had snatched from an unlucky dark wizard in Knockturn Alley. With his level of enchantment, this ordinary wand functioned differently, but not by much. It was more of a cover-up—just a small scene.
Once, in Knockturn Alley, he was besieged by thirty or forty dark wizards and now had a wealth of coping experience. Too lazy to talk nonsense, he began with a "fluorescent flash" that he cast silently, increasing the magic power output to create a blinding effect similar to a "Sun Fist." This trick was often effective. But this time, under the blessing of his newly acquired talent, "Heart of Black Magic," the black magic aura added a layer, transforming the dazzling white light into an oily green. This was unexpected for Kyle.
In the entire magical world, only one magic can produce this kind of light: Avada Kedavra, the Killing Curse. As for the effect? Well, let's put it this way: the moment the green light emerged from Kyle's wand, two of the surrounding Slytherin students were stunned, and three were frightened enough to lose control. The others' legs started to tremble as well. Could a small first-year hidden senior selection really provoke the use of the "Unforgivable Curse"?
Ding! Fear detected! Ding! The treasure chest is being extracted for the host! Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a silver treasure chest! More than a dozen treasure chests were burst open. The special effects were extraordinary and dramatic.
