After coming to his senses, Cedric quickly tried to smooth things over and said:
"Underage wizards are forbidden to use magic outside of school, so the vast majority of freshmen don't know magic."
Cedric was afraid that this good friend he had just made would be looked down upon by Ilona, the new teacher at Hogwarts, so he hurried to explain for Wentworth.
Wentworth naturally understood what Cedric meant. While taking various snacks from the cart, he gave Cedric a grateful look.
Ilona on the other side smiled nonchalantly and said, "Sometimes, wealth is more powerful than magic! Very good magic, you are all very talented students. The future of the magic world lies in your wands."
Cedric and Cassandra were obviously very happy to receive the teacher's praise, while Wentworth was busy distributing snacks to everyone. If Wentworth looked up at Ilona at this time, he would definitely feel that Ilona's eyes were so familiar.
Ilona on the train was naturally Rosier who had taken the Polyjuice Potion. She had already sent her resume to Hogwarts and received a reply.
Dumbledore invited her to take the Hogwarts special train to Hogwarts for detailed discussions. If suitable, Ilona will become the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts this semester.
What Rozier said just now was not all compliments. In fact, as two little wizards who were only eleven or twelve years old, they were indeed talented to be able to cast spells so skillfully.
Rosier looked at the three people in the box and sighed in his heart that Wentworth was indeed the blood of the Grindelwald family. Just like Gellert back then, he was always surrounded by many outstanding wizards.
They may have gathered around him for different reasons at the beginning, but in the end, they will all be convinced by his personal charm and support him as the king! "Professor Ilona, would you like a chocolate frog?"
Wentworth's voice interrupted Rosier's memories. Looking at Wentworth in front of her, Rosier, who was now Ilona, smiled.
"Of course, why not? I have to say that the spell called Garondodo is a very practical spell, isn't it?"
Ilona took the chocolate frog from Wentworth's hand and said jokingly, which made Cedric, who was eating Bibi's every-flavor beans, laugh.
But as Cedric was laughing, tears suddenly flowed down his face.
"How disgusting! It's mustard flavored!"
On the other side, Cassandra was eating a chocolate cauldron cake in small bites. Compared to Cedric, Cassandra's movements were obviously much more elegant.
Wentworth curiously picked up a Bibi Multi-Flavor Bean and tasted it. Well, it was not bad. Although he couldn't tell what the specific flavor was, it was obviously not the flavor of earwax.
Wentworth leaned back in his chair, admiring the scenery passing by outside the car window, while tasting various snacks that were only available in the wizarding world. He felt that this kind of life was really comfortable.
By the time the Hogwarts Express arrived at Hogsmeade Station, it was completely dark.
Before getting off the train, Wentworth had already seen a giant-like figure standing outside the narrow window beside the train corridor, holding a torch. The giant had a thick beard and messy hair.
There is no doubt that the person waiting for everyone below is Hagrid, the key keeper of Hogwarts and the keeper of the Forbidden Forest.
This is another person who deserves attention and needs to be avoided, Wentworth thought to himself as he followed the crowd and got off the Hogwarts train.
However, when Wentworth and others got off the car, the first person to speak was not Hagrid, but a witch wearing glasses walked out from behind Hagrid.
"Excuse me, is Ms. Ilona here?"
The witch also smiled and said, "Hello, Ms. Ilona. I am Professor McGonagall, the deputy headmaster of Hogwarts. I am here to greet you on behalf of Headmaster Dumbledore. I am sorry that the headmaster could not come in person, but as you know, today is the first day of school after all, and there are many things waiting for him to deal with."
Ilona waved her hand nonchalantly and said:
"It's okay, Professor McGonagall. The reason why Hogwarts has been considered the best magic school in the world for so many years is inseparable from the efforts of Headmaster Dumbledore and the professors. As the headmaster, Dumbledore should be busy, right?"
Hearing Ilona's words, Mag smiled, but quickly restrained it.
"Fred and George! Put down what you're holding! What do you two want to do?!"
Mag walked back aggressively, came in front of the two identical twins, and said angrily.
"Hey, Professor, don't be nervous, it's just some fireworks!"
"Yes, Professor. We prepared this for the first-year students! You know, it's so dark along their way! I'm afraid they won't be able to see the road clearly."
The twins said with a smile.
And Mag said mercilessly: "Put away your things! You should be thankful that the new semester hasn't officially started yet, otherwise, I would have deducted points from you!"
After Mag finished speaking, he turned back to Ilona and said apologetically: "Let's go this way, Ms. Ilona. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. You have to know that these children..."
But for some reason, Wentworth always felt that Professor McGonagall seemed to have taken a last glance at him from a distance before she left with Ilona.
As Mag and Ilona walked further away, the students around them gradually became noisy again.
"All the first-year students, come to my side!"
Hagrid shouted loudly, shaking a bell in his hand.
"Wentworth, I think we have to part ways for a while. Remember what you said, the way first-year students enter the school is different from the way we do. But it doesn't matter. I will wait for you in the Hogwarts castle."
Cedric's voice sounded behind Wentworth, and he sounded apologetic.
Wentworth said quickly:
"Okay Cedric, I really don't want to be apart from you for even a minute, but since this is a Hogwarts tradition, there's nothing I can do about it. I'll go to Hogwarts to find you as soon as possible!"
Cedric seemed to be moved by what Wentworth said, and even took the initiative to hug Wentworth when he left.
Wentworth watched Cedric leave, and when he turned around, he saw Cassandra looking at him strangely.
