"Do you know which house you will be sorted into? I have asked around. I hope to be sorted into Gryffindor. They say it is the best. I heard that Dumbledore himself graduated from there, but I think Ravenclaw is not too bad."
In the carriage, Hermione had given up the idea of continuing to discuss books with Damon, and instead chatted with everyone about other topics.
Just as she was chattering, the door of the compartment was suddenly pushed open, and three boys came in.
One was pale, with long light golden hair, and a delicate and sharp face. The other two boys were short and fat, and they looked particularly ugly. They stood on both sides of the pretty boy, one on each side, just like a pair of his bodyguards.
"Is it true?" he asked, "Everyone on the whole train is talking about Harry Potter in this compartment. So, that means you, right?"
"Yes." Harry said, he looked at the two fat guys next to him, which reminded him of his cousin Dudley, and instinctively felt a little displeased - what are these three people doing here?
"Oh, this is Crabbe, this is Goyle." The pale boy noticed that Harry was looking at them, so he casually said, "My name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy."
As he spoke, he looked around at the other three students in the carriage.
Hermione exuded a familiar Muggle smell, which made him unconsciously show a contemptuous and sarcastic expression on his face, but when his eyes moved to Damon, he became a little hesitant.
As for Neville, Malfoy didn't even look at him and ignored him directly.
Everyone in the field also felt his emotions at the first time, and Harry's brows subconsciously frowned.
Malfoy turned to Harry and said, "You will soon find that some wizard families are much better than others. Potter, you don't want to make friends with people who are different. I can help you with this."
He stretched out his hand to shake hands with Harry, but Harry ignored him.
"I think I can tell who is different myself, thank you." He said coldly.
Draco Malfoy's face did not blush, but a faint blush appeared on his pale cheeks.
"If I were you, Potter, I would be especially careful." He said slowly, "You should be more polite, otherwise you will follow the same path as your parents. If you always hang out with some questionable people, you will be affected."
Hermione's face turned red with anger when she heard this, and she stood up on the spot.
Harry was also indignant and couldn't help saying, "Say it again!"
"Oh, you want to fight, don't you?" Malfoy sneered.
Crabbe and Goyle beside him arrogantly snapped their fingers and looked at the three people in the middle.
"Oh? I can't pretend I didn't hear that."
Damon, who had been watching the conflict with a smile in the middle, stood up slowly. Hermione couldn't help but glared at him - it was already so relaxed at this time?
But at the same time, she hesitated. Did they really want to fight in this carriage? This was against the rules - she had just entered school, how could she leave such an impression on others? If the professor knew about it, wouldn't it be terrible?
"Why, do you think you are good at fighting?"
Malfoy looked at Damon with a provocative tone. When his eyes moved to Damon's handsome face, he suddenly remembered the commotion he had caused in the carriage before, and said with jealousy:
"Sitting with a Muggle, I don't think you are a noble existence, just a mudblood. If you have the courage to fight, come on!"
"Do you think it's an honor to insult others with dirty words that others don't know the meaning, Malfoy?"
Damon's mouth corners slightly raised, biting his upper and lower teeth lightly, revealing a bit of ferocious meaning.
Hermione and Harry stared at Damon in a daze, not understanding what happened. Only Neville blushed, but couldn't say a word.
Crabbe and Goyle smiled strangely and passed by Malfoy, but suddenly saw a wand in Damon's hand. They were stunned immediately, and the smile shifted to Damon's face.
"I will remember your evaluation of me, but now, you should pay the price for it."
Looking at the Malfoy and the other two who were timid because of the sudden appearance of the wand, Damon waved his wand without hesitation.
"Petrificus Totalus!"
Three precise and decisive shots in quick succession.
"Boom boom boom."
The three fell to the ground one after another, and Damon's spell casting caused a commotion in the carriage. Many wizards stuck their heads out to look at the situation outside and saw the stiff heads of Malfoy and the other two.
Soon, a Slytherin recognized Malfoy's identity, frowned and stepped forward, shouting:
"Who is using spells on our Slytherin students? This is too despicable!"
Harry, who had just been cheering for Damon's beautiful spell casting, was suddenly stunned at this moment, and subconsciously looked at Hermione - are they going to get into trouble?
Damon, lightly passed them, stepped on Malfoy's body and walked out of the carriage, looking at a large group of students rushing over, and said with a smile:
"Slytherin? He hasn't enrolled yet, right?"
"You - you are a first-year student?"
Looking at Damon who had not yet changed into robes, a group of senior students hesitated.
"Yes, this is our first-year's business. Do the seniors want to bully the weak?"
"So what? Malfoy is destined to join Slytherin. If you insult him, you are insulting us!"
While others were still hesitating, a fourth-year student who had an old relationship with the Malfoy family directly took out his wand and pointed it at Damon, "You must pay the price!"
"You can try."
Damon smiled, holding the wand with both hands, saluted with the wand, and then took a posture of preparing for battle.
The Slytherin in front of him showed a look of shock on his face. After returning the salute, he was ready for battle.
"Wizard duel?! First-year students vs. fourth-year students!"
The students in the carriage were completely boiling, especially the Gryffindor students, who had begun to run around and announce it!
"The shameless Slytherin and the first-year students are fighting! The shameless Slytherin and the first-year students are fighting!"
This time, it really stirred up a hornet's nest. Even the students who were originally sitting in the carriage and were not interested in the commotion got out of the carriage one after another, but they only heard a full-bodied voice and a figure flying out.
"Expelliarmus!"
With this spell, the fourth-year student's wand was instantly shaken out of his palm, and his body was driven by the huge force and flew up, hitting the side of the carriage heavily and sliding to the ground.
His face was pale, and he slumped on the ground, completely stunned.
No one expected that things would develop so quickly.
The surrounding students were stunned. They didn't expect that a first-year student could subdue a fourth-year student so easily!
Moreover, that was Slytherin! Although they are mean and dark, it must be admitted that they have certain attainments in magic. A first-year student defeated a fourth-year senior just like that!
Damon slowly walked towards the fourth-year student, looked down at the wand he threw on the ground, and said with a hint of teasing:
"Is this the price you said?"
"You" The fourth-year student blushed and was extremely angry, but the next moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and the anger on his face completely disappeared and became weird.
Correspondingly, there were other little snakes at the scene.
At first, they just felt that their house was insulted, and they even wanted to stand up to Damon to show him how powerful he was, but someone suddenly shouted:
"He's a first-year student? He hasn't been sorted yet?!"
The anger of the little snakes was like cold water poured on their heads, which was extinguished at once, and replaced by the sweetness of summer.
Strong! Confident! Elegant! You said this is a freshman who has not been sorted?
This is clearly the future first-year leader of our Slytherin!
"He definitely belongs to Slytherin! Stop fighting, we are all family!"
They helped the fallen student up, and looked at Damon with shining eyes - they seemed to have seen the scene after Damon joined Slytherin!
At this moment, the little wizards who were watching the show su
ddenly became noisy again:
"The prefect is here!"
"What are you doing! No noise is allowed in the carriage!"
