8 Chapter Eight: Kyle - Persecution Paranoia? Does Not Exist(Edited)

Hagrid welcomed many new students.

Most of them were curious about Hogwarts.

With a bit of excitement on their faces.

A very few were timid and silent.

But to see such widespread wailing and sobbing...

This was truly the first time.

Their cries were ringing in his head!

"Oh, I think you misunderstand, I'm not a giant..."

"I'm a half-blood..."

Although reluctant to admit it, Hagrid patiently explained.

Although it sounded muffled.

His voice was much louder than an ordinary person's.

"Wow, a half-blood giant, how terrifying."

"I don't want to take part in the sorting ceremony!"

"I want to go home!"

After saying these words, the crying became even more intense.

Hagrid: "???"

...

At this time, Kyle also got off the train.

Carrying a satchel on his back.

This was a bag enchanted with the "Undetectable Extension Charm," containing some of Kyle's belongings.

With the greatest white wizard of the century sitting in Hogwarts.

It was very safe there.

So unlike when he was in Knockturn Alley, Kyle didn't bring too much stuff.

Just some poisons, homemade weapons, and magical props.

And also some firearms and ammunition he had collected from the Muggle world over the years.

Pistols, rifles, machine guns, grenades, rocket launchers, and even a small mushroom bomb.

Kyle was not a person full of paranoia.

Delusions of persecution... don't exist!

So he didn't prepare too much, just enough to equip himself.

At this moment, Kyle's face showed a little excitement.

He even whistled softly.

It could be said that he had made a fortune on the train just now.

There were already over a hundred treasure chests in the system.

All bronze to silver, the only diamond chest was exploded by Malfoy.

It had to be said that Hogwarts was indeed a good place.

There was an old saying in the previous life.

A family that accumulates good deeds will have blessings!

People are doing, God is watching, a lifetime of kindness will bring blessings in the end!

As long as he maintained this kindness.

There would definitely be more and more treasure chests in the future.

...

"Alright, no matter what you think, come with me."

Hagrid grumbled a few words and finally said loudly.

"New students need to go to Hogwarts by boat."

A group of weak and helpless young wizards followed Hagrid tremblingly.

Four people per boat.

Kyle also followed from the mainstream.

Not seeing the trio, they were probably on some boat discussing how to stay alive.

The three people on the same boat were strangers.

"Everyone, keep your heads down."

When they arrived at a cliff, everyone heard Hagrid's reminder and bowed their heads.

Only Kyle remained seated.

Looking up, there was at least a meter of space above.

And looking at those wizards who were eager to stick to the boat.

No, did you guys misunderstand your own height?

...

Through the cave, they arrived at a place under the castle similar to a dock.

A witch wearing a green robe and a serious expression had been waiting on the shore.

It was Professor McGonagall.

"Hagrid, everything still going smoothly?"

Professor McGonagall saw Hagrid, the big guy, on the boat in front of her at a glance.

"It should be... still going smoothly?"

Hagrid got off the boat and walked to the shore.

Should be?

Still going smoothly?

McGonagall was dumbfounded by this answer.

She turned her head to look at the newly enrolled young wizards. It had been too dark in the river just now.

Now that everyone was ashore, Professor McGonagall finally noticed.

Oh my goodness!

Everyone had tears and snot all over their faces.

The snot was from the cold, and the tears were from crying.

Most of them were still sobbing quietly.

"Alright, children, welcome to Hogwarts. Before enrollment, we need to have a sorting ceremony."

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and began the annual opening speech.

Just as she mentioned the sorting ceremony...

"Wow, I don't want to participate in the sorting ceremony!"

"It's a witch, fairy tales say old witches will deceive children."

At this moment...

Professor McGonagall finally understood why Hagrid said it was still going smoothly.

Where was it going smoothly?

After a stern sweep of the room, she finally saw a relaxed face in the crowd.

Even whistling softly was Kyle.

Just now, three bronze and two silver treasure chests had exploded out.

Half a years worth of work in Knockturn Alley equalled what he achieved in half a day today.

Life is really unfair .

If Kyle didn't sing a little song on the spot, he would be considered reserved.

Seeing the stern gaze cast by Professor McGonagall.

Their eyes met.

Feeling the inquiries, criticisms, and reproaches in the other party's eyes.

Kyle felt he should do something!

After all, he was also a member of Hogwarts!

"Don't cry anymore!"

"Since your parents have sent you to school, it means they don't want you anymore."

"Think about how you're going to participate in the sorting ceremony later!"

Upon hearing Kyle's voice, the crying stopped for three seconds.

Then...

The volume increased threefold!

[Ding! Detected anger!]

[Ding! Extracting treasure chests for the host!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one diamond chest!]

A diamond chest, shimmering with a diamond-like brilliance, appeared from Professor McGonagall, visible only to Kyle.
