Lester was now certain that the Sorting Hat had been forcibly controlled by some powerful figure, who had also altered its memories.

"Hat, do you remember what just happened?" Lester swallowed hard, his little hand already Silencio gripping his Dark Lord's Wand.

"What happened?" The Sorting Hat asked calmly. "Didn't you just France many beautiful hats, and that you were going to bring me one to see?"

Lester breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the Sorting Hat had indeed forgotten what had just happened.

That Sorting Hat is clever. If he tells Dumbledore later, I'll be exposed. Now that his memories have been altered by the big boss, I can rest assured.

As for who was the mastermind who altered the Sorting Hat's memories, Lester could figure it out with his bare hands. He knew that the house he went to was the one that mastermind tampered with the Sorting Hat's memories.

"Don't worry, hat! When I go to France next time, I'll definitely bring you a nice hat!"

After thinking it through, Lester stopped agonizing over it. He gave the Sorting Hat a promise, then returned it to Professor McGonagall. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lester went to the Slytherin table.

However, Lester was not in a good mood.

After all, with his abilities, he could thrive in any house. But they insist on sending him to Slytherin, a place full of bloodline-obsessed idiots. If he goes to that house, how are the young wizards of Slytherin House supposed to survive?

On his way to the table, Lester can see his friends sitting at the Gryffindor table.

Harry looked bewildered, his eyes filled with disbelief and shock. He didn't know why Lester, who came from an orphanage, would be admitted to Slytherin.

Ron Weasley stared at Lester with a mocking and hostile expression. He knew Lester would be sorted into Slytherin House; he had even pretended in front of him and Harry.

"Harry, I told you Lester wasn't a good person," Ron Weasley said, tilting Harry head. "Even if he were a good person, he went to Slytherin, which is full of bad people. In a few days, Lester will turn bad too."

"Lester can turn bad too?" This time, Harry didn't refute Ron Weasley's words, but instead pondered the question carefully in his mind.

He initially believed Lester was a good person, but in the end, Lester was sorted into Slytherin, and Ron Weasley even told him that everyone in Slytherin was bad.

For a moment, Harry's trust in Lester began to waver.

When Lester arrived at the Slytherin table, many Slytherin wizards gave Lester a look of admiration. Lester, however, was used to such occasions and remained calm under their gazes, slowly walking to the back of the table.

Many older Slytherin students, seeing Lester's calm and collected demeanor, exchanged glances and held him in higher regard.

Unlike the other three houses of Hogwarts, Slytherin House, being a noble academy, naturally exposes its children to adult topics from a young age.

Many of these students are the sole heirs of their families, the future heads of their clans. As future clan leaders, they cannot only think of themselves, but also of their families.

If there really was a gifted and powerful student in Slytherin House, they wouldn't mind going there to join him, since Slytherin reveres the strong.

However, there is one prerequisite: this Lester must come from a Pure-blood families; otherwise, they wouldn't side with a Mudblood!

Sure enough, as soon as Lester reached the back of the table, several first-year students stood up to offer him a seat.

In Slytherin, it's normal for the weak to serve the strong, but in Gryffindor, even if you beat those junior wizards to death, they still wouldn't give you a seat.

"No, thank you!" Lester smiled and declined their offer, walking alone to the very end of the table.

As soon as he sat down, he felt the intense gazes from the center of the table. Looking up, he saw the arrogant Malfoy staring intently at him.

However, after being discovered by himself, Malfoy immediately lowered his head like a young wife caught cheating.

"Sigh, why are you all being so nice to me? I'll feel guilty when I beat you up in a few days."

Don't be fooled by the fact that these young Slytherin wizards are constantly trying to curry favor with him. It's because they don't know Lester's background and still think he's Pure-blood families. That's why they're so eager to please him.

If these little snakes, who have been brainwashed by the theory of bloodline, knew that they were not pure-blooded nobles at all, they would probably target them immediately.

At that point, will Lester kill their entire family, or will he kill their entire family?

Just as Lester was considering whether to strike first, the system's pleasant notification sound rang in his ears again.

[Ding! Host has successfully completed the Sorting and entered Slytherin House, initiating the ' Slytherin Quest Series ']

[Mission Brief: Times have changed. The glory of purebloods is a thing of the past, and their former honors have been completely abandoned. Now, Slytherin House needs a change, an unprecedented change, and great changes always need a leader.]

[Ding! Do you want to accept the quest ' The Rise of Slytherin '? (Completing the quest will grant rewards; failure has no penalty)]

Lester: "..."

Slytherin Quest Series? What the heck is that?

And is it really okay for me to take on this task? My parents are wizards, but they are not pure-blooded nobles, and I am not a pure-blood at all!

No, theoretically speaking, since both of my parents are wizards, I should be a pure-blood. But this is Slytherin, and the definition of pure-blood is a pure-blood noble, not someone like me.

Is it really okay for me to lead Slytherin?

After a brief moment of hesitation, Lester silently said to himself, "Accept!"

Nonsense! If there's a reward for success and no punishment for failure, why wouldn't you accept it?

[Ding! Mission 1 ' The Strongest First-Year ' has been issued]

[Mission Summary: To lead the entire Slytherin House, you must start with small things, such as becoming the leader of the first-year Slytherin students.]

[Mission Objective: Subdue all first-year Slytherin students (0/20)]

[Task Reward: Unlock the Quest Shop (items obtained from previous draws can be purchased in the Quest Shop)]

Lester: "..."

He was originally too lazy to complete this task, but the Quest Shop was really tempting.

"System, you understand me better and better!"
