Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

“I am your prefect, Vanessa Greengrass. The password to enter the common room changes every two weeks. The current password is 'Ouroboros'. New passwords will be announced on the bulletin board.” Vanessa explained the Slytherin rules to the new students as she saw that all the students had entered.

At the same time, she stood on the steps leading to the common room, looking at all the underage wizards of all grades.

“Here at Hogwarts, we are Slytherin. We do not reject ambition, but we still remain calm, elegant, and uphold honor at all times. I hope you can all defend the honor of Slytherin. Our house hasn't won the House Cup for several years. I hope you don't just bicker with those Gryffindors all day long, but put more time into your studies and the honor of the house.” Vanessa said calmly, looking at the students in the common room.

The Slytherin snakes stood quietly at the bottom of the steps, listening to Vanessa's speech, with different expressions. It was unknown how many people would actually listen, but at this moment, a discordant voice came.

“We can't let those Gryffindor fools ride on our heads. Now is a good time for our rise. Look at the magical world now, the world is about to change.” A fifth year student with blond hair, also standing on the steps, protested loudly to Vanessa.

“That's Rory Yaxley, the fifth year prefect, who was just promoted to prefect this year.” Vivian whispered the information she had learned to Anduin.

“Enough, don't bring that off-campus stuff to the school. You come to Hogwarts to study, not to take sides.” Vanessa sternly reprimanded Rory, not giving him a chance to finish speaking.

“Okay, everyone, disperse. Your luggage is in your rooms, and your schedules have been placed on your desks in advance. Your names are on the doors of your rooms, so go back to your rooms now.” Vanessa turned around and dismissed the crowd, and then told the new students, not giving Rory more time to speak.

“Hmph, we are born noble. Slytherin has a responsibility to maintain the purity of the magical world. I heard that there are even Muggle-born wizards joining the school now. Look, under your leadership, what nobility is left in Slytherin?” Rory roared at Vanessa, venting his dissatisfaction.

The young wizards didn't dare to interrupt, and scattered in twos and threes.

Anduin, listening to Rory's veiled accusations, had no intention of listening to his nonsense, and left along the corridor beside the common room.

It seems that there are different voices in Slytherin. One side is like the neutral party, unwilling to get involved in the Dark Lord's affairs, while the other side is the pure-blood faction, believing that the Dark Lord can win.

Anduin thought as he walked, and finally found his room.

Since the Slytherin dormitory was converted from a dungeon, each cell is a dormitory, which means that in Slytherin, everyone can have their own single room. From this point of view, Anduin was very satisfied with being assigned to Slytherin.

Entering the room, what came into view was a luxuriously decorated four-poster bed, surrounded by polished stone walls. Two windows could directly see the scenery at the bottom of the lake. The room was decorated with emerald green and silver fabrics. There were candles and oil lamps on the desk and bedside table for lighting. The medieval tapestries hanging on the walls depicted famous adventures of the Slytherin descendants.

“There's even a carpet. As far as decoration is concerned, there's nothing to complain about this room.” Although the things he had seen and heard after entering Slytherin did not give him a particularly strong sense of belonging to this house, as far as the room was concerned, Anduin had no complaints about being assigned to Slytherin.

Anduin packed his luggage, while thinking about future arrangements and plans, and after a little thought, he had a plan.

“Next, I must act in a low-key manner. Training and exercise must continue. Slytherins are good at protecting themselves. I can't expect to rely on others, nor can I expect those pure-blood supremacists not to make trouble for me. Although everything in the magical world is very tempting, I must still focus on ensuring safety and prioritize arming myself to build superior firepower.” Anduin's military mindset made him define all unknowns as dangerous. Gradually, Anduin's eyes were no longer as humble as before, and gradually became firm and sharp.

The next day, at six o'clock in the morning, Anduin stretched.

Hogwarts' course schedule is two consecutive classes from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, with a break in between when the bell rings, and then lunch. After lunch, classes continue from 1:00 PM, also two consecutive classes.

Dinner is still eaten in the Great Hall. Then, the students return to their respective common rooms, either to do homework or to socialize. The curfew time for upperclassmen can be extended to 9:00 PM.

Today is Tuesday. According to the course schedule, the two classes in the morning are Charms, and in the afternoon there is History of Magic.

Anduin dressed neatly and prepared to stroll around the castle in advance to understand the terrain and the location of the classrooms. After checking the wand on his body, he opened the door and walked out.

There was no one in the common room in the early morning. Through the ceiling, you could see a huge squid swimming in the lake. Anduin now had time to quietly observe the entire common room.

It must be said that the person who built the common room was truly a powerful and aesthetic person, and the scenery at the bottom of the lake was even more eye-opening.

After Anduin admired it, he walked out of the Slytherin dormitory along the corridor he had entered.

Anduin first spent more than two hours walking through all the routes of the castle. Those randomly moving stairs almost made him dizzy. Later, Anduin simply used the Obstacle Curse to directly shape a magic staircase and jump directly to each floor.

Hogwarts Castle has a huge main tower, with a total of 8 floors, composed of moving stairs. The top floor is the headmaster's office, a courtyard-like building connected to several other towers. The main tower and courtyard building mostly contain classrooms for various grades and subjects, while the other towers connected to the main tower have two that are the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor common rooms. There is a drawbridge in the courtyard building, and you can reach the Astronomy Tower through the drawbridge.

The other towers next to it are the Central Tower, the Dark Tower, and the Clock Tower. Several towers are connected by another courtyard-style high-rise building. You can reach the library through the corridor of the building, and the Central Courtyard is in the middle of the building. Along the corridor, passing the library and the Central Courtyard, there is a gate downstairs, which leads to several huge greenhouses. Passing the greenhouses along the corridor to the bottom of the Central Tower, there are two more bridges here, one stone bridge connecting the courtyard building on the side of the main tower, and the other leading to the entrance hall.
