Chapter 40: Castelobruxo (1)

"Are you ready?"

"Sort of, even so I didn't expect them to wear this color, it's like it's from Slytherin."

"No, it's not from the snake house, everyone here uses green and it's not as dark as Slytherin but a bit more natural"

"Got it, I figured out how to use it."

"Come on, come on out, I need to make sure everything is correct."

William stepped out of the fitting room, revealing a multi-piece suit. The boots used by the Castelobruxo students are made of dragon leather which has several protective properties, the strings to tighten them are made of abraxan hair.

As for the pants, they were white with a special fabric made of plants that had healing properties, the tunic was emerald with several golden details, at the waist of the uniform was also located a golden belt that symbolized the school.

The most important part of the uniform was the cloak of golden color and white details, that cloak had defensive properties against the dark arts keeping the life of its wearer more protected.

"How are you feeling?" asked Headmistress Ana.

"Well... I don't feel cold and it's quite comfortable" William stretched out his arms and looked at himself in a large mirror to see his appearance "yes, I think this uniform looks good my self"

"I think so too, not many students have hair like yours" the headmistress was pleased with William's appearance, she knew of the reputation of the Rosier family but she was not short sighted like many and could separate the situations.

"She should be here by now" the headmistress looked at the clock at the top of her office.

"She?"

"Your guardian during your studies at Castelobruxo, Dumbledore left you in my care and I must return you in one piece, plus you will have trouble familiarizing yourself with everything."

William could only lift his shoulders in response with a forced smile, he wasn't entirely pleased but he was hoping for something like this to happen.

Soon the door opened and revealed a girl much more mature than William, around sixteen years old, long hair down to her waist but tied in a long ponytail, light blue eyes, freckles on her face and fair skin complexion.

"Manuela Valdebenito, a student from our South America, Argentina, Rosario to be more exact. She will be your guardian William, she is an honorable student in her sixth year and has the most outstanding grades among all my students."

"Principal you make me blush with embarrassment" said the young girl partially covering her mouth with her right hand and looking to the side "you said you wouldn't present me with too many compliments".

"They were just normal words" mentioned the headmistress with a calm expression "anyway here next to me is the student I told you about yesterday. William Rosier, a first year at Hogwarts."

"So this is the student everyone is afraid of!" exclaimed the young girl looking William from head to toe walking around him "he doesn't look that scary, maybe it's the Hogwarts uniform that makes him look more intimidating, to me he's a little chick just hatching from his shell don't you think headmistress?"

The headmistress laughed lightly "you may see it this way but according to Albus Dumbledore himself, William stopped the theft of the philosopher's stone and fought a real Death Eater!"

"he?!" exclaimed Manuela "are you sure?"

Ana nodded "besides he wasn't a lesser Death Eater because he carried the will of Voldemort himself as a parasite".

"the one who can't be named?!"

"Manuela I have told you many times, call him by his name he is only a dark wizard like many others, if he had existed at the time of colonization he would have perished like many others by our ancestors" headmistress Ana mentioned calmly, William on the one hand understood what the headmistress was saying. According to the history of his previous world South America had a great fame for the witchcraft of the natives now that he is in a world of magic it would be impossible to imagine the true capabilities of the so called witches or shamans.

"Still I wish Harry Potter had attended, I had many illusions of meeting him when he told me about this task as a guardian. I have nothing against you William, it's just that you know.... Harry Potter is the boy who survived, a living legend."

"No problem, I understand your motives, the truth is that Harry was also involved in the incident but he wanted to take a break at his aunt and uncle's house, a nice vacation away from studies" William imagined how Harry must be having it at the Dursley's house, to the point that it brought a small smile to his face.

"Sigh... I understand, maybe there is a chance next year, I guess if everything goes well this transfer thing could be more usual couldn't it headmistress?" Manuela tried to lift her own spirits

"Sure, anything can be possible" The director moved to her desk, it only took a wave of her wand for several books and papers to move to the desk "these are the materials for your stay, usually it is the students themselves who have to pay for everything but the British ministry coordinated everything. Now without anything else I should mention I will leave William in your charge Manuela, you know what you must do next."

"Of course" nodded with a smile Manuela then opened the door "William"

William picked up all the books in his hands and followed Manuela, he could have kept them in his waist pouch but it was preferable to keep his tricks, they could be useful in the future.
