A broken Hogwarts

Chapter 6 Good Night, Hogwarts

The new Slytherins followed Prefect Gemma Farley out of the Great Hall and down the marble staircase deeper and deeper beneath the castle.

As he went underground, the lights in the corridor seemed to become dimmer, and the air became damp and cold, which made Owen shrug his shoulders.He dislikes humidity and cold.

After eating and drinking, the little wizards yawned so much that they didn't even have time to chat. Only a few people in the team lowered their voices and the hum of conversation echoed in the corridor.

Harry on the other side also looked sleepy, but he finally got rid of everyone's entanglement, he moved closer to Owen, and asked vigorously, "Owen, can you tell me why Hagrid and the others reacted in this way?"

His emerald green eyes looked at Owen sincerely. He was very helpless and sensitive when he first came into contact with Hogwarts. Inadvertently doing something inappropriate or disappointing others.

Looking at Harry's pitiful eyes, Owen sighed and said, "It's not a big problem. You are the Boy Who Lived, because you defeated the Dark Lord..."

"That incident... I don't remember at all." Harry's face flushed a little.

"Whether you remember or not, that is an undeniable fact." Owen smiled, his expression very peaceful and gentle under the dim light, "Therefore, most wizards think that you are born extraordinary, with A natural talent."

Harry's face flushed even more.

"Wizards generally believe that you have an innate great talent and are the nemesis of the Dark Lord, and they believe that you will definitely become the one who leads the future of the wizarding world." Owen glanced at him, "Of course, there will always be Then a small number of people think that the reason why you can defeat the Dark Lord is that you were born with powerful dark magic power, so the Dark Lord will deflate you. They think that you may become a more terrifying dark wizard... "

"But... But, I'm just an ordinary person, and I haven't even learned a single magic!" Harry's voice got a little louder unconsciously, causing many people around to turn their heads to look over.

"Perhaps, the problem is that some people don't think so." Owen nodded, "And since you have been assigned to Slytherin today, I believe the second theory will become popular for a while."

"why?"

"Because the Dark Lord who was defeated by you graduated from this academy, and even most of his core followers are from Slytherin." Owen shrugged, "I have to say, this will make many people more See the resemblance between you and the Dark Lord."

"I'm not like him!" Harry woke up from sleepiness like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Yes, but it is undeniable that Slytherin is indeed the house with the most dark wizards." Owen said casually, "Although other colleges have produced dark wizards, people's consistent ideas are always difficult to change, just like other colleges. There has never been a dark wizard in the academy..."

"No one told me that before!" Harry's eyes widened.

"Ah, why is it necessary?" Owen said lightly, "Whether he will fall into darkness depends on the individual, people's own will and choice, not where he comes from or which college he graduated from. Although it is always a bit ignorant The guy can't tell the difference..."

He looked at Harry and said very seriously: "If anyone you know has alienated you just because you came to this college, I sincerely warn you to stay away from that person. He is not worth your heart, at least And a pompous idiot."

"There's no need to care too much about other people's opinions, or if you really care," Owen paused, "then you might as well slap those people in the face with your actions."

"Slytherin is an academy that respects the strong. As long as you work hard and become outstanding, you will be respected and even followed by others." Owen raised the corners of his mouth interestingly, "And for you, this academy There is a very important advantage."

"what?"

"Unity!" Owen blinked, "Although some of the Slytherin students are a little inexplicably arrogant, they are not easy to get in touch with from outsiders, but in fact, we are more united than the people in the other three houses. Much more, at least in terms of defence, never disappoints."

"If you want, you can make many sincere friends here, and even gather a group of followers like the Dark Lord." Owen said meaningfully.

"I don't want followers!" Harry said loudly, causing everyone to look at him again, and many of them showed friendly smiles to him.

"It's up to you." Owen responded indifferently.

Everyone went deeper and deeper underground, and the surrounding walls began to glow with a dark green color.It would probably be quite creepy if there weren't so many people walking together.

"By the way, why do you call Voldemort the Dark Lord?" Harry suddenly realized the point.

"Oh, I just chose the one that is least likely to offend him from all his titles." Owen spread his hands with a smile, "Of course I can call him Voldemort like you, but if he someday Once I can't think about making a comeback, wouldn't I be very dangerous?"

"I'm afraid he will secretly hide in that corner and listen to it. It's not shameful to be wise and protect yourself when you haven't grown up."

"Uh, you're... honest." Harry was choked up for a long time, and it took him a long time to hold back the words.He really didn't know what to say.

For the next short distance, the two stopped talking.A group of people kept going down, and finally stopped in front of an empty stone wall behind the dungeon.

"Glory." Gemma said the password to the stone wall.

Everyone watched a stone door hidden behind the stone wall slowly open, and at the same time listened to Gemma's advice: "The password of the common room will be changed every two weeks, pay attention to check the bulletin board in the lounge. Also, don't It is allowed to bring students from other colleges to our common room, and don't tell them our password, our common room has not let outsiders in for 700 years..."

The little wizards yawned and nodded, wondering if they listened.When the stone door was completely opened, everyone rushed into the lounge.

This is a long, narrow, basement-like lounge with walls made of black Gothic marble.The ceiling is a transparent semicircle carved from crystal, and you can see the sparkling water of the Black Lake above, and there are green lights hanging on it.

Outside the window is the dark water of the lake, with occasional huge shadows flashing by.Opposite the lounge is a beautifully carved fireplace surrounded by carved chairs.

Owen looked around, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This gloomy and cold tone made him feel inexplicably cold.Although the torch in the fireplace warms the lounge, he still prefers to curl up in the chair by the window in his free time, basking in the bright and warm sunshine.

The bedroom did not exceed Owen's expectations, and the overall tone was still black and green.Outside the window is the deep lake bottom, with silver lanterns hanging from the ceiling.The circular bedroom is surrounded by four four-poster beds with green curtains and silver embroidery on the bedspread, which looks restrained and luxurious.

The roommates Harry, Malfoy, and Theodore Nott, who looked quiet and restrained, had already climbed onto the bed. Owen also heard Malfoy's long-drawn complaint: "Why not a single dormitory? I Be sure to write a letter to my father..."

Owen was not in a hurry to go to bed. He had already slept on the train before, and he was not sleepy now.He lightly took out some rabbit food to feed Muse, put away the messy magic props on his body, changed into a dark blue long pajamas, chanted a cleansing spell and carefully cleaned his body, and then slowly climbed onto the bed .

"Good night, Muse." Owen looked at the deep lake outside the window, listened to the sound of gentle waves beating the window, and said softly to the rabbit lying on the table.

"Good night, Hogwarts."
