7 Hogwarts

After returning from Diagon Alley, there were still 2 months left before school started. Dantalion has read and memorized most of the magic spells and potions, now that he has a wand and a cauldron he has also started his practical study.

Dantalion practiced all the spells every day until I could cast them naturally, Mr. Ollivander was right, this wand was very compatible with him, when he held it, the magic power in his body felt harmonious when casting magic, no matter what kind, it felt smooth and natural, Dantalion also found that when casting some "dark" spells ", small jinxes like Atordous Stomacus, and attack spells like Eletricus, his wand had an amplifying effect.

Two weeks later, Dantalion happily received the mage robe made by Mrs. Morkin, he looked it over carefully and stuffed it into his Hogwarts bag. Time passed and soon it was September 1st. The Malfoys arrived at King's Cross Station

Wizarding families can Apparate directly from the station, or use the flur network, but they must take the train, there is a Ministry of Magical Law, which obliges students to reach the school by train, Dantalion saw the red steam locomotive parked in the street . platform, with a sign that read "Hogwarts Express".

Thick smoke hung over the noisy crowd, cats of different colors passed between people's feet and owls could be seen in their cages. There are people here saying goodbye to their children, others exchanging ideals and children talking about their holidays. The two brothers said goodbye to their parents and boarded the Hogwarts express.

Dantalion and Draco shared a compartment, the youngest carrying today's Daily Prophet, but just as he was about to read it, Crabbe and Goyle entered.

"Draco, Dantalion, do you already know?" Both said excitedly, "Potter, Harry Potter, he's on the train, everyone is talking about it."

"Hm, I heard about this a month ago," said Draco, "I met him in Diagon Alley last month, as you guys seem so excited I'm taking you to meet him. Shall we go together, Dantalion?"

Four children were walking down the corridor, Crabbe and Goyle were behind, they looked like bodyguards, they walked along the corridor until they reached the door of one of the compartments "It's here" said Goyle, Draco opened the door immediately. Harry was sitting across from a red-haired boy with freckles, tall, thin and with a blemish on his nose, Dantalion took him as Ron.

"Hey Harry, how was your summer break?" Draco asked, "The people on the train were saying you were here"

"Hm, that's okay," Harry said in a vague way, he learned from Hagrid that Malfoys are cunning and unreliable Dark wizards, best to have little contact with them.

Draco didn't notice Harry's anomaly and continued "This is Crabbe, this is Goyle, they really wanted to meet you", as he spoke Draco noticed the redhead and raised his eyebrow "I think you must be a Weasley, my father told me that your family was all redheads, that there were a lot of kids and it was hard to buy nice things..." Dantalion coughed lightly, interrupting Draco, looking at Ron, who was looking embarrassed, "Hello, I'm Dantalion Malfoy, this is my brother Draco, He just... Well... he didn't mean it, I'm sorry"

It's a pity that the bad impression had already been planted, and neither Harry nor Ron seemed to be in a good mood, at that very moment a little girl opened the cubicle door, next to her a chubby boy: "Have any of you seen a frog? Neville lost one" The girl had long, thick brown hair and a slightly forward set of teeth.

"I heard from you Neville, are you of the Longbottom family? Your parents are both great Aurors, my name is Dantalion Malfoy, and this is my brother Draco."

"Really? you've heard of me" Neville, who had been looking down, suddenly lifted his head higher, eyes brighter, it was the first time anyone had heard anything about him. Dantalion continued, "I haven't seen your frog, but I can't help you, the summoning spell I know doesn't work on living beings"

After finishing talking, Dantalion saw that his brother was unhappy with Harry and Ron's attitude, so he called out to him and they left. Crabbe, Goyle and Draco decided to cross the train, Dantalion went back to his compartment and started reading his newspaper, suddenly the door of his compartment was opened and two girls entered, one was blonde and tall, the other was brunette a little shorter , the girls examined Dantalion and decided to sit down.

Dantalion didn't know them, but looking closely he saw a family coat of arms, the blonde girl belonged to the Greengrass family, to be together, the other girl should be pure-blood too

The Greengrass family is an important family, member of the Blooded 28, but the family has a blood curse, every generation a member of the family is born with the curse, causing them not to live long. Blood curses are an advanced and rare type, parents apply to the entire family lineage, there are several types of blood curses some serve to reduce lifespan and others will transform the wielder into animals

Dantalion took the initiative to speak "Young Greengrass heiress, miss, I'm Dantalion Malfoy, nice to meet you".

"Hello, young Malfoy heir, I'm Daphne Greengrass and this is my friend Tracey Davis." compared to Daphne, who had a cool aura, Tracey's demeanor seemed friendlier. "We found your brother in the other compartment… he… won't look like much" she said a little embarrassed.

"Your brother and Parkinson look similar," Daphne said with a bit of disdain.

Dantalion was sure the two girls must have found their brother and friends in another cabin, he knew that Draco acted arrogantly whenever Pansy was present, that girl was self-centered and jealous and super possessive of her brother. Surely it must have offended the two girls.

Dantalion gave a friendly smile "I think my brother must have accidentally offended the two young women, accept my apology and this small gift". picking up his wand, he tapped it lightly on the corner of the table, a glass that was there split in two and turned into a glass flower lymph. "These beautiful flowers, for two beautiful, elegant young ladies."

Although Dantelon's intention is only to apologize to the girls, if the exquisite transfiguration skill really shocked them, during the journey Dantalion's image had already changed in their heads. The three talked a lot, about history, family and expectations of Hogwarts, the two also realized that Dantalion knew a lot about magic and started talking about spells and transfiguration.

It was already night when the train arrived, the freshmen were on the platform, it was dark and cold, the wind was blowing hard on their clothes, not letting them wait long a half giant holding a lightbulb shouted "First year, first year, come here"

Hagrid, who is almost five times the size of a fledgling, held the magic lamp and smiled with his bearded face: "Come, follow me. All freshmen, first year, Watch your feet, come with me!"

The cubs followed Hagrid along a rutted mountain road and suddenly looked at the landscape in awe, at the end of the path a black lake spread out, with sparkling waves and the reflection of the moon, high on the shore across the lake. one could see an imposing castle, shrouded in unfathomable darkness, boats moored on the shore of the lake, gently rocking, Hagrid shouted "Get on the boats, no more than 4 people per boat!"

More than a dozen small boats were rowing across the calm lake towards the castle. At the castle gate, Professor McGonagoll led the pups into the auditorium for the sorting ceremony.

As expected, Dantalion, who was pure blood, full of ambition and cunning, was sorted into Slytherin. After dinner, the students proceeded to the common room under the mayor's guidance.

The Slytherin hall is located in the dungeons of the castle, the vast hall is filled with green light, the walls and ceiling are marble, with black Gothic style, looking out the huge window is the bottom of the black lake, with animals and creatures under aquaticas that appear occasionally.

Unlike the other houses, the noble snakes had their own bedrooms and bathrooms, they didn't have to share accommodation with their peers, Dantalion was very happy, Slytherin really was the right house for him, he had many plans at Hogwarts, Dantalion chose the latter room down the hall, after locking the door, he snapped his fingers and called out to Dobby.

House-elves and wizards do magic differently, elves can clap freely within Hogwarts, but only if they have no malicious intent, as one of Dobby's masters, Dantalion can summon him.
