chapter twenty three

In the middle of the ceremony hall professor McGonagall stood beside an ugly hat when the hat started singing.

"Oh, you may not think I'm pretty, But don't judge on what you see, I'll eat myself if you can find A smarter hat than me.

You can keep your bowlers black, Your top hats sleek and tall, For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat And I can cap them all.

There's nothing hidden in your head The Sorting Hat can't see, So try me on, and I will tell you Where you ought to be.

You might belong in Gryffindor, Where dwell the brave at heart, Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindor apart;

You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal, Those patient Hufflepuff are true And unafraid of toil;

Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind, Where those of wit and learning, Will always find their kind;

Or perhaps in Slytherin You'll make your real friends, Those cunning folk use any means To achieve their ends.

So put me on! Don't be afraid!

And don't get in a flap!

You're in safe hands (though I have none) For I'm a Thinking Cap!"

The hall filled with the sounds of clapping and professor McGonagall started calling.

"Ron Weasley Gryffindor."

"Harry Potter Gryffindor."

"Lisa Ravenclaw."

"Hermione Granger Gryffindor."

"Draco Malfoy Slytherin."

"Nico Robin Ravenclaw."

"Lace. D. Satan Ravenclaw."

"Neville Gryffindor."

Lace took a deep breath after his name was called.

He must confess, that he was a little afraid, in the end no one really knows how the sorting hat really works.

If it can read minds then it's a big problem for him, but he gambled that it couldn't because if it could.

Tom would have been exposed long ago and his admission to hagwart would have been impossible.

Or the cowardliness of peter the long tail.

All this shows that the ability of the sorting hat isn't omniscient and that it judges based on the feeling not the memory of the person.

After a while the ceremony ended and professor McGonagall looked at them all and said.

"Congratulations on entering your new house, every house is a home for his people, I hope all of you will be able to bring glory to your house."

"Every house have a dean for every school year, I wish you a good year."

In the end a young girl stood from the middle of the Ravenclaw people.

"You people from now on I am the dean of Ravenclaw, I am a member of the crouch family, one of the 28 noble family."

Lace smiled when he noticed that the rest of Ravenclaw people ignoring the girl and walking to what he assumed their common room.

When the girl saw the faint smile on Lace lips, she got angry.

"You who dare you laugh at me, I am Dalia crouch, a noble blood wizard, and you are a mud seed, you are going to apologize for me At this moment, do you understand."

Lace looked at the young girl In front of him, he never thought that the difference in treatment between the pure blooded wizards and the Muggle wizard has reached this far, but thinking about did if even harry the hero of the wizard world can see the difference of the treatment so what's happening behind the scenes.

He thought that these problems will be only in Slytherin, but it looks like all the academies suffering from it.

He looked at the girl In front of him and smiled

"I don't smile at you my lady, but I only amazed at how awesome you are, can I be your follower."

A smile appears in Dalia face

"So, you want to be my followers, having a Muggle born as my followers is beneath me but looking at how good-looking you are I will make an exception and accept you."

Robin looked at this in wonder according to her knowledge lace isn't the kind of people who accept loses or want to be a follower of someone, but it is none of her business he is the boss anyway, so she left the two and walked towards the library, in the end it's a new world In front of her.

"Now, my lady after you accept me, I want to tell you a secret, can I"

Dalia looked interested in the end she only twelve

"What kind of secret?"

Lace smiled mysteriously and said

"Do you know why Muggles can learn faster than wizard despite not having magic, it's because this secret that make their studies easier."

A look of excitement appeared at Daila face as she argued lace

"And what is this secret."

"It's a secret technique that make the people smarter and learn faster to you want to try."

A look of happiness appeared in Dalia face if she became smarter it will be easier for her to study, and she will have more time to do what she wants, maybe accept this mud seed was the right choice after all.

"What's this secret technique?"

"It's a technique that works on the subconscious mind that can help make it active, but it needs a quiet place to do it with no one can distract us while we do it."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go to the common room and choose a corner to sit"

So, Dalia let lace to a far corner in the common room which probably used by lover it's quite with no one coming here, and it's kind of impossible to hear what others say and the others people can't hear what the people in this corner say.

When the two sat down lace looked at Dalia and said

"Now, look in my eyes and relax your body, take a deep breath and imagine the place you feel safe in the most."

"In this place you can feel safe, happy and comfortable."

As lace speaks, Dalia face began to relax and a happy and relaxed smile appeared in her face.
