The School Will Not Expel a Kind Student

"Wingardium Leviosa."

Accompanied by the incantation of the Levitation Charm.

A spark of magic from Vinson Wright's wand landed on the wizard robes of three Slytherin youth Prefects. The robes seemed to come alive!

They actually began to lift their owners' bodies into the air!

This was the effect of Vinson Wright's Levitation Charm. Based on his magic and mastery of the spell, it was enough to keep the robes of these three Slytherin Prefects floating for five days.

In the blink of an eye!

The three Slytherin Prefects, their robes enchanted with the Levitation Charm, were hung on the walls of Hogwarts Castle, leaving the crowd in the square stunned!

Many young wizards were terrified.

Even the Gryffindor Prefects were somewhat astonished.

Who could tell them why, in less than a few minutes, a new student had defeated all three male Slytherin Prefects and hung them on the wall!

But...

It was truly embarrassing for Slytherin!

The three Gryffindor Prefects were a little happy. They slowly turned their heads to look at the gray-haired boy from Hufflepuff, unable to resist wanting to applaud the gray-haired boy's actions.

They realized once again that the Sorting Hat's strong recommendation for Vinson Wright to join Gryffindor House was correct...

Vinson was truly too suited for Gryffindor!

What a shame...

This gray-haired boy had chosen Hufflepuff.

Clearly, Hufflepuff House had never had a young wizard like Vinson Wright before. Even the other young wizards were shocked by their own schoolmate.

"Vinson, you just hit a Prefect..."

Erwin Bones, a young wizard from Hufflepuff House, was quite scared. He looked up tremblingly at the Slytherin Prefects hanging on the castle wall.

"Only three..."

Vinson Wright said with a calm expression, patting Erwin Bones on the shoulder. "Don't worry, each House has six Prefects..."

"..."

Erwin Bones' eyes widened.

Why did he feel a hint of regret in Vinson's words? Did this person still want to hang all the Slytherin Prefects on the castle walls!

"Alright, we still have important matters to attend to."

Vinson Wright turned around, glanced in the direction of the Gryffindor Prefects, then looked at the young wizards in the square, and began to reiterate his proposal.

"Now, I'll say it again. To prevent our kind Hufflepuff classmates from being accidentally injured, fighting within the House is forbidden from today onwards. Does anyone have any objections to this proposal?"

"..."

The young wizards remained silent.

Isn't this just Hufflepuff meddling unnecessarily?

But with the lesson learned...

Who would dare to have any objections?

The Slytherin Prefects were still hanging up there!

Hufflepuff House and Ravenclaw House certainly had no objections; this proposal was essentially irrelevant to them. The Gryffindor young wizards all looked at their Prefects.

Clearly.

The Gryffindor young wizards hoped their Prefects would step forward and say something.

However, these young wizards were destined to be disappointed today, because the three Gryffindor Prefects seemed to have no objections. They believed this was merely Vinson Wright's naivety and wishful thinking.

In fact, the fights between Gryffindor House and Slytherin House, something well-known throughout the Wizarding World, had always been something to be understood implicitly rather than spoken of explicitly.

In the past, there were senior students from Hufflepuff House who kindly tried to intervene in such matters, but they quickly realized...

The conflicts between Gryffindor and Slytherin were not something outsiders could resolve. Hufflepuff students had long since become accustomed to it.

Now, Vinson Wright might be intervening because his friends were accidentally injured. It was estimated that in another year or two, Vinson would become accustomed to the occasional conflicts between Gryffindor and Slytherin, just like the Hufflepuff Prefects...

Of course.

He probably wouldn't have to wait that long.

Because Vinson Wright had publicly attacked three Slytherin Prefects today, which was equivalent to slapping Slytherin's Head of House, Snape, in the face. He might very well face disciplinary action this afternoon...

This was assaulting a Prefect!

And not just one, but three at once!

Nothing like this had ever happened at Hogwarts!

At noon, Severus Snape learned of the incident.

The Head of House for Slytherin House immediately went to rescue his disgraceful Prefects from the wall and brought them to his office.

"A fifth-year, a sixth-year, a seventh-year..."

Severus Snape looked at his students with a cold, disdainful expression. "You can't even beat an eleven-year-old brat... You're the worst Slytherin Prefects I've ever had!"

It was a disgrace to the entire Slytherin house!

It was a disgrace to all Wizards from Slytherin!

Snape didn't even know how he was supposed to suggest a punishment for that brat, Vinson Wright, to Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall, especially since the kid had just beaten up three Slytherin Prefects right after enrolling!

Such embarrassing news...

Snape really didn't want to say it!

"From today onwards, you are no longer Slytherin Prefects."

Severus Snape glanced coldly at the students, who didn't dare to breathe, and immediately stripped them of their Prefect positions.

Slytherin House lacked many things, but it never lacked ambitious individuals. There were plenty of students who wanted to be Prefects, and any one of them would suffice.

"Go back."

Snape slowly wrapped his cloak tighter and looked at them with disgust. "I will write to your parents. From now on, you'd best watch yourselves and don't do anything else that embarrasses me!"

"...Yes."

The students left Snape's office, trembling.

Even though they had been imposing Prefects at school, within the strict hierarchy of Slytherin House, they dared not defy Head of House Snape's decision.

The news of the Slytherin Prefects' disgrace spread quickly.

The entire Hogwarts soon knew what had happened at noon.

Apart from the students of Slytherin House, many students from other houses admired Vinson. Gryffindor, in particular, even though their little lions had also been beaten, some expressed regret about what happened during the Sorting Ceremony.

Hufflepuff students, however, were somewhat worried. They were concerned that their little badgers would face severe punishment.

Some even worried that Vinson Wright would be expelled. Tonks went straight to her Head of House, Professor Sprout.

The Professors had a more comprehensive understanding of the situation.

Based on the sequence of events, Vinson Wright didn't seem to have made any major mistakes in this fight. It was said that he and Cedric had tried to mediate the conflict in good faith, and only resorted to excessive force when their friends were injured.

The only problem was...

He had injured three Slytherin Prefects.

He had even hung them on the castle walls as a display.

This incident was actually more troublesome than him beating up two first-year students from other houses.

To prevent Vinson from receiving severe punishment from the school, Head of Hufflepuff House, Professor Sprout, skipped lunch and rushed to the Headmaster's office, showing the urgency of the situation!

"Albus!"

Upon seeing Dumbledore, Professor Sprout directly pleaded, "Vinson is still a child. Please don't expel him. We should give him more opportunities..."

"Don't worry, Sprout, have something to eat first!"

Dumbledore's attitude was even more amiable than Professor Sprout had anticipated.

Dumbledore even kindly offered Professor Sprout his own snacks for lunch.

Only after they both had lunch in the Headmaster's office did Dumbledore express his stance to Professor Sprout.

"The school will not expel a kind student."

Dumbledore stated his opinion seriously and even praised, "The little fellow is right. Kindness always needs to be protected by everyone. I will discuss this matter with Severus."
