Chapter 193 Scamander and the Native Americans

"Rolf Scamander"

When Professor McGonagall called out this name, her voice became much softer.

A boy with freckles and brown hair walked out of the fourth grade team in Ilvermorny.

As for his characteristics, in addition to his face full of freckles, he also has a pair of eyes that are as passionate and confident as a salamander. This comes from the genes of his grandmother "Tina Scamander".

No doubt about it, the old hat declared

"Hufflepuff!"

The society of pure-blood wizards is actually very small. Basically, if you mention a surname, everyone knows what your family does, and it often happens that families gather together and graduate from the same academy.

The Scamander family is undoubtedly the permanent surname of Hufflepuff.

Currently, Scamander who is active in the wizarding world usually refers to the descendants of Newt Scamander.

Because Newt's brother Theseus Scamander was unmarried and had no children.

And this Rolf Scamander must be a direct descendant of Newt Scamander.

"Hello, I am Rolf Scamander, a fourth-year student at Ilvermorny Goblin College."

"I am Luoyu from the Eagle Tribe," a sixth-grade student at Thunderbird College in Ilvermorny. "

The two trainees from Ilvermorny who were already seated introduced themselves,

"Rolf, do you know Mr. Newt Scamander? Scamander should be a British surname, right? Why are you studying in Ilvermorny?"

Some students from the college couldn't help but ask questions.

It’s not their fault for neglecting classmate Luo Yu, but the fact that Scamander is too famous in Hufflepuff, not just because of Newt,

Newt's brother, Theseus Scamander, is also a very famous Hufflepuff.

He once served as the Director of the Auror Office, which is Rufus Scrimgeour's current position. He is already a big shot in the wizarding world and the direct commander of the armed forces of the wizarding world - the Aurors.

He also contributed a considerable part of his strength in the fight against the dark wizard Grindelwald.

If the Scamander family had not pursued power, he would have been a strong candidate for the Minister of Magic in that era.

This was even more surprising than Raven studying at Beauxbatons. Weasleys were prosperous anyway, and Gryffindor never lacked Weasleys.

"That's my grandpa, but my father is the professor of Care of Magical Creatures in Ilvermorny, so I grew up in Ilvermorny and went to school there.

I'm very happy to come to Hogwarts. If Grandpa knew that I was sorted into Hufflepuff, he would be very happy! In this way, our family is all Hufflepuffs! "

Rolf Scamander didn't mind the trouble and explained.

Everyone suddenly realized that this was very reasonable.

There is no reason why a professor's children should not attend local schools.

Curiosity was satisfied, and the little badgers did not neglect another classmate from Ilvermorny.

"Your name is Luo Yu? What a strange name. Are you an Indian?"

Luo Yu, who had black hair and black eyes in braids, frowned.

But considering that this is the UK, these new students don’t know much about the wizarding ecology of the American continent.

So I had to patiently explain to these new classmates,

"Indians are the colonists' misunderstanding of us. The Indians they are looking for are in Asia. In fact, Indians are impolite, full of blood, tears and prejudice.

You could call us Native Americans. "

Not only falling rain, many Native American students actually care about this very much.

Because the original genocide was real, it was the deepest disconnect between Native Americans and No-Majs.

Misty, who is good at observation, discovered some abnormalities in these graduate students.

"It seems that you have...a high proportion of Native American wizards? I saw that 1/4 of your graduate students have black hair and black eyes."

Misty said,

Luo Yu was very surprised by her keen observation.

"Yes, in the 17th century, when Ilvermorny was founded, the proportion of Native Americans was higher,

Because at that time, most of the fair-skinned...white wizards came there after graduating from Hogwarts or two other magic schools in Europe.

In this century, due to the ethnic changes of the No-Majs, the ratio of white wizards to black wizards is already very high. The reason why we Native Americans can still maintain the current ratio is

That's thanks to the fact that our aboriginal wizards still exist in the form of tribes, so among the descendants of the tribe, the proportion of wizards born will be much higher than the naturally awakened No-Maj wizards. "

Luoyu explained patiently,

Everyone nodded suddenly,

"So this is very similar to Celtic wizards. Although they were invaded and even gave up their original magic system, they are still a very important force in the magic world."

Raven added,

As a Celtic family member, Weasley said this with confidence.

Luo Yu had never thought of this level before, but his history of magic was not bad, so he quickly understood the meaning of Raven's words. The slight discomfort that he felt when he came to the birthplace of the colonists quickly dissipated.

There are still people who can relate to us!

Soon, the applause to welcome the new classmates gradually stopped.

The sorting is finished.

It's very balanced. Each college is assigned four new students.

There are also two lower-grade Ilvermorny students who came to Hufflepuff. They are both students of Goblin College.

"Ding, ding, ding"

Dumbledore knocked on his glass to signal for silence.

Old students know what is coming next,

School song chorus!

In order to cater to today's atmosphere,

Raven chose

"To Anacreon in Heaven"

The melody of this song is used to accompany the Hogwarts school song.

On the one hand, this is an informal British toast song, which is very suitable for the following dinner party.

On the other hand, during the Second Anglo-American War, this song was changed into "The Star-Spangled Banner" by an American lawyer with lyrics

Later it became the American national anthem that every No-Maj knows.

Raven thinks this has a good meaning.

Luoyu, who realized Ruiwen's potential meaning, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Are Hogwarts students so capable of causing trouble?

But for some unknown psychological reason, Luo Yu followed Raven and sang the song loudly.

Luoyu, the oldest among the Native American students, sang along.

The Native Americans who were assigned to other colleges simply sang along. They were very familiar with this song.

And those Ilvermorny students who are not Native Americans, heard them singing this tune neatly at Hogwarts,

Then who could bear it, so he also sang along,

Since the guests sang like this, the hospitable Hogwarts students must respect the guests' wishes.

Some people also heard Anacreon to Heaven, so they sang it too,

In the end, everyone sang the school song at Hogwarts in the Hogwarts auditorium to the tune of an anti-British war song and the American national anthem.

Fortunately, Fudge is not here today.

It's better that he thinks Dumbledore is becoming a beauty.
