Chapter 69: Sandwich

Chapter 69: Sandwich

Voldemort sat on the main seat at the high faculty gallery.

After he appeared, the entire great hall fell silent consciously.

Even though the students sitting here are basically kids and teenagers, there is hardly anyone who does not know the prestige of the man who has reshaped the entire wizarding community.

Even if he will only come to Hogwarts Castle once a school year, no student has forgotten that he is the Headmaster of this wizardry school.

To Voldemort's left sits Snape, and to his right is Barty Crouch Jr.

They are his proxy in this castle, as well as the most loyal and powerful right-hand men under him.

"The start of a new term would always bring a cheerful mood."

A bland smile appeared on his handsome face, and his voice echoed throughout the great hall.

No one dared to whisper at this time, and many were even purposefully restraining their breathing as if a slight sharp intake of breath would disturb the gentleman on the platform.

"I would like to welcome the new students to the school and hope that in the future you will treat this castle as if it is your home. Each of you who can sit here has true noble blood flowing through you, the excellence of purebloods is unquestionable, but half-bloods also possess an honourable part."

"We have the same noble blood, supporting this noble blood is supporting ourselves."

Voldemort lifted the goblet in front of him, which contained a third of wine that resembled blood.

"For the purest of blood!"

Whether it was the separate one long table or the three long tables located in the centre of the great hall, all the students as well as the professors on the high platform raised their goblets together.

"To the purest of blood!"

The young voices echoed in the great hall, their faces flushed with excitement, everyone seemed to believe in the grand idea that "supporting the noble blood is supporting oneself"!

...

All the students who did not get a pass or above in the "holiday training" were punished with three lashes.

The amount may not seem much, but for these physically weak "mudbloods", these three lashes could kill many if they were just a little bit heavier.

Jon blinked, somewhat surprised at the girl's careful thinking in knowing how to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Just when he thought that this girl would secretly eat half of the sandwich after making sure it was safe, Jon suddenly realized that this girl did not actually intend to eat it.

She carefully shifted her position, as if she was afraid that her movements would attract the attention of others, especially those senior students who had gotten the sandwich.

In the end, it took her three or four minutes to move to an inconspicuous corner where a freshman sobbing with his head buried in his knees was sitting.

It was the boy who had ended up getting a lash from Dolohov for asking questions at first.

He simply could not swallow the dry hard bread and did not dare to cry out, so he could only bury his face into his knees, using his body to hide the desperate sorrow.

Until the girl gently touched his hair and handed half of the sandwich to him.

The freshman lifted his tear-stained face, and the girl, who was obviously only a year older than him, had a smile on her dirty face that was more gentle than anything he had ever seen, and then gently handed the sandwich in her hand a bit further forward as if gesturing for the freshman to take it.

"This might be a little tastier."

Her voice was small and quiet, like a small, faint flame, clearly seemingly weak, yet warm enough to warm a desperate child

[Author:]

Cedric's bloodline is doubtful, Wiki says he is 'likely' to be pureblood, this 'likely' points to the Goblet of Fire where Hagrid said to Harry that he hoped he would win the championship to prove that half-bloods are not weaker than purebloods, this pureblood may possibly refer to Cedric who is also a Hogwarts champion, or it may refer to those Slytherins who look down on Harry's participation, this is a bit vague, so I will just write him as a half-blood, but later If there are some big brothers really give solid evidence that he is pureblood then I will certainly revise it, but then the original part related to Cedric will definitely be cut off.

The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're doing.

Good night!
