[ Chapter VIII (8): "FIRST-EVER HALLOWE'EN FEAST OF HOGWARTS" ]
[ "This isn't... what I expected..." ] Felix watches the Students casting charms here and there to remove the fogs that he had painstakingly created hours prior. He was expecting all of them to be afraid, scared, in chaos, the perfect time for the chivalrous Professor of theirs to show up.
But apparently that isn't needed at all, as all Student except for some— Constantine, Mullein, Baker, etc... are scared out of their wits, defending themselves with small little wooden nukes in their hands.
The props which was decorating the walls and the Great Hall getting destroyed in seconds, before then regenerating. The Golems also, as some of them gets thrown left-and-right. This group includes a small Zombie, which landed near Felix's shoes.
[ "Hi...?" ] In response he crouched and picked up the said angered Zombie, holding it, he watches as the said thing regenerate lost limbs, teeths, and clothes which are in shambles by design. [ "Poor thing." ]
He emphasize with the Halloween themed Golems which are less than a day old, as their homes gets ransacked by a group of giants. He would be mad too, which the Zombie looks like, which is getting held by Felix, [ "Everything's alright, don't worry." ]
He calmled down the angered Golem, before then letting it hang by his shoulders. Something of which the said monster is good at doing. [ "Doing good? Alright." ]
After making sure that the Zombie isn't gonna fall off, Felix then pulled out his magical Wand— without specific wood, or core. Waving it as low green lights appeared all around the Hall, pushing all the fogs out of existence to his dismay.
He remembers how difficult it was in creating those fogs, but he needed to do it to make sure that he could see all of his Students; to make sure that none is sure, or is having a problem, like one who's currently floating high above waving at him.
[ "H-hi, Professor!" ] In response to the little kid with small prescribed glasses, he waved back. The others in seeing the fog slowly disappears, and in hearing who was called, all stopped panicking— also the Golems.
[ "Hi, Mr. Levite, you, uhh- doing flying again?" ] He smiled, his voice reverberating all-around the Great Hall stripped off of it's fogs. The jolly and worry in his tone being heard by the Students, as all of them without exemption fixed their appearance.
[ "What a lovely kid." ] Pointing his Wand at the kid, he slowly pulled him out of the sky, for him to not eventually hit any of the floating candles due to his unique lightness in response to the Levitation Charm.
With another flick, he cleaned the dust and messy appearance of the boy using what little magic he does know. Which caused the Ravenclaw boy to be grateful as he smiles up at him, [ "T-thank you, Professor...!" ]
[ "No problem, Mr. Levite." ] He smiled, before then sternly but approvingly looking at the other Students in the Great Hall. Some looking guilty, but the others proud in causing chaos and panic.
He couldn't help but twitch his eyes in response, especially to the Gryffindors which doesn't look the bit guilty in comparison to the other Houses. But still, as their second parent, he cleaned the mess using the Cleaning Charm he bought from the System— causing them all to smile.
[ "Yes, my hair is fixed!" ]
[ "My burnt necktie is regenerating, magic is so awesome...!" ]
[ "My bad breath is still here, gosh darn it." ]
Multiple voice of amazement rang out the Great Hall, as all Students gets their appearances instantly fixed by Felix who's trying to concentrate and use the said charm he bought. Which gets easier the more he used it.
He fixed all of the said Students appearance, all except two which seems to be looking much more worse in comparison to the other children. And those two would be, both Slytherin, and are opposite to one another personality wise.
[ "Mr. Constantine, Ms. Mullein, why do..." ] He grinned instinctively, which he hid using his free hand. Before then continuing to speak, [ "W-what happened for you two, to look like this, exactly. Do tell, I'm curious." ]
At the moment the boy on his left looks proud, snickering and happy with life. His uniform torn, sliced, and burnt, while his face is indeed covered with dust, he instead of frowning have a smile
In sharp contrast to that, the girl on Felix's right looks annoyed, angry, her fist balled into a fist as she tries to stop herself from punching someone. All the while her state is the same to the kid besides her.
In hearing the compassionate, stern, but worried voice of their Professor— someone who had only shown care towards them. Both felt guilty. So, both was ready to tattle on one another as they point at each other; both gazes accusatory and firm.
[ "Professor, in truth..." ] x2
[ "She started it!" ]
[ "He started it!" ]
[ "...?" ] At the same time they spoke, both seemingly in the right at first glance. But both are conflicting, which caused Felix, the Students, and the Golems to be confused as they listen. [ "Who, what now...?" ]
...
[ "So it was all a misunderstanding." ]
All the Students, no matter the gender or House could be seen looking guilty at the floor. Felix, their Headmaster spent quarter an hour to listen about what happened. And could now firmly say... his Students are indeed maniacs.
All little maniacs having the capability to reshape reality with proper training. But at the moment, they only have about a month's training; and that power in their hands, we're used for mischief and wrongly by some— Constantine.
He glanced at the sole whistling kid, at the blonde haired blue-eyed boy that intensified the panic his classmates we're feeling amidst the fog. He wanted to punish the kid to some degree, but what he did was quite funny, no one was hurt; it was wrong, but none was harm. Thankfully.
[ "Okay, take your seat, children." ] So with a sigh, he dismissed every single Student letting them sit. Seeing their punishment as over, the Students did what they we're told, as seconds later breakfast appeared all-around them in the table.
[ BREAKFAST (MEAL PACK): ]
[ BOILED EGGS: 30 CREDITS ]
[ PANCAKES: 25 CREDITS ]
[ GLASS OF CHOCOLATE MILK: 35 CREDITS ]
[ ... ]
All sorts of food started appearing, all freshly cooked, sharing almost the same look with one another. Throughout the tables of the Great Hall. To the Students it is unexplainable magic that is done by their Professor; causing them to theorize.
It ranging from him creating the food and drinks from thin air, to storing them somewhere before teleporting the food, or even making it invisible in another realm making it appear with his will. He never really explained how it works to them.
Which caused them to bother him every time they could do so, but he remained firm and never told them a single pip. Because in truth, it wasn't due to him, it was due to a System stuck inside his head— Credits being needed for the food to appear, those Credits coming from the Students.
So on and so-forth, the daily expenses of food alone made Felix close his eyes whenever he sees the receipt. He does this thrice a day, so in short, he is nearly broke. But the teachings he does compensates for it, and giving him a little bit, enough to put into his piggy bank; very little.
He stood up in his chair, the noise alerting the others to not eat yet... Which some forgotten and had already done. But stopped immediately in remembering. Glancing down at them, Felix instead smiles as he claps his hand, [ "Let's eat." ]
[ "Start the, uhh- first ever Hallowe'en Feast of Hogwarts." ] He continued, which the others didn't expect. He doesn't know what the Hallowe'en Feast is to be exact, he isn't a Wizard originally, so he knows nothing. But in reading books, he somewhat does.
The Students all glanced at him confused, "Hallowe'en" and not "Halloween"? They don't know. But, hey, perhaps it is one of the Professor's quirks again, so none spoke up against it. Instead, they immediately dig in after hearing the clap of the Professor.
[ "Can someone pass me the basket?" ]
[ "I got you, Candice." ]
[ "WingGARdium LeviOsah!" ]
Students chattering, chanting the Levitation Charm, and eating could be heard around the Great Hall. Even the only adult in the room could be seen doing it, as he eats eggs without care. The Golems, child-friendly horrors could be seen intrigued, especially the Zombie besides Felix.
You see, the Golems are newborns, they don't know exactly what is happening. They don't need to eat, they don't need to sleep— but they do the latter some times. Eating to be exact is what foreign to them.
So in curiosity, all-around the Great Hall; Ghosts, Zombie, Frankenstein and freaks alike could be seen pestering the Students trying to try and grab a bite. Which was responded by the Students with equal effort, as they give food to the new Golems.
[ "Here, mate, you can take two with yah." ]
[ "I-I don't really think you could drink milk, it phases through you." ]
[ "No, uhh- no. You can't use this as an potion ingredient, this is a mango shake." ]
Chaos... But in having experienced interacting with Golems before, countless of times, even to ones that seems to have intelligence and ego. The Students in turn was able to handle the situation much more efficiently and effectively without problem.
So for once, Felix didn't need to stop a fight against the Knight and Wizard Faction in the Great Hall. A war. And instead enjoy his breakfast without worry at all, as he drank a glass of shake besides him.
In his head calculating the plans that he'll do for the foreseeable future. At the moment, it seems that he needs to teach the Students more about magic, and how to properly use their wand— after all, with great power comes with great responsibility, or something-something.
Lost in a stuppor, he was pulled out when he heard a groan ringing besides him. Looking to his right, he could see the small Zombie Golem salivating, staring at the pancakes. [ "Here, you can have the pancake, if you wa-" ]
Not even finish speaking, the Golem was able to understand his intention. And dive deep, eating the pancakes that was presented to him like a black hole. Something of which all the Golems no matter the type has. [ "Alright, okay. I guess you really wanted the pancakes." ]
Seeing the pancake devoured in mere seconds, he worries if Golems like the Zombies could choke. So he pushed the chocolate flavored milk to the small minifigure which is the same height as his fork, [ "Here, have this." ]
He hadn't taken a sip off of that drink, which made it nearly full. So it was a surprise to absolutely no one as the said Zombie drank all of it, with the help of Felix which threw him inside the drink.
It all disappeared bit-by-bit, which became a spectacle to Felix. He didn't mind at all, especially because he much more favors shake than milk. And also because the quantity of the food and drink the Zombie ate and drank is more for it, in comparison to him with the same portions.
[ BURP ]
[ "What a wonder, you looked full." ]
He looked down at the Zombie with a bloated stomach, and worries for the said Golem's state. Will it explode? Will it throw up? He doesn't know, but he hopes he doesn't do any of the above mentioned. He also couldn't help, due to him having limited magic spells in hand.
And none of the spells he knows, could help in soothing someone who have eaten too much. So instead, he did what he could and laid the satisfied Golem on the small Cabin decoration he bought, on the high table. Before then continuing his meal, eating the rest. [ "Go sleep, you evil fat thing." ]

[ AN: I got in the public university, it means I don't need to pay for tuition. But I do need to maintain a grade. Anyways, I'm in BS Entrepreneurship now, due to me not having any choice. Cheers. Also, Felix is dense towards romance— only realizing something after half a year. That's the fun fact for today, now get out. ]
