Chapter 98 - First Day As A Student

Perona and Gray sit beside each other on the long Gryffindor table.

Like Gray, Perona was also sorted to Gryffindor. In fact, Gray whispered to the hat threateningly that if it didn't let Peron with him, he will wear it again.

Hilariously the hat really listened to him, even before touching Perona's head, it sorted her to Gryffindor.

The students from Gryffindor where happy seeing Gray and Perona and even the famous Harry Potter enter their house.

Dumbledore saw everything is ready and stood up then clapped his hands.

With this, all the tables that the students were sitting at suddenly filled with food of all kinds.

The students around saw this and were surprised, this is really magical. And the smell of this food is also so magical...

Gray looked at this, and couldn't help but want to learn this spell... He's not sure if this food was prepared before and what Dumbledore did was summoning it, or if it was created by magic....

If it was created, then this spell is probably the strongest in this world! He can end the starvation in the apocalypse with such skill!

"*sigh*....." Gray sighed and tested the food and found it really tasty!

He couldn't help but remember a small joke sentence he read before the apocalypse...

*If you're a Muggle your life is a Struggle*... A very meaningful and true sentence .....

During the dinner the ghosts still came like the original and started moving around the hall, Perona who was enjoying her food suddenly got annoyed by one of the ghosts who came directly from her plat.

The ghost looked around and wanted to make a joke, but Perona in front of him actually grabbed his face and started beating him with her small fist.

Gray on the side saw this and turned blind eyes. Those ghosts are annoying anyway.

As for the other, they looked at this scene with shock.

This is a ghost! she actually caught it with her hand?! Ron in front of them looked at Perona with fear, then he started moving away...

Not only him, almost everyone looked at this with mixed emotion.

Only Harry and Hermione looked at this scene with a big smile. For Harry looking at the ghost begging Perona to let him go looks funny, as for Hermione she looked at all this and wondered if this is also magic... She reads many books before but never read anything about this...

The dinner ended fast, and Dumbledore gave warning to the students about some rules like the forest is forbidden, so no one should enter it, and magic shouldn't be used between classes in the corridor. And finally, the third-floor corridor on the right shouldn't be entered, or there might be a death threat.

There should be the first artifact Gray wants...

But to get it, he still had to follow the plot.

After this, the seniors of every house took the students to their chambers.

Under their leading Gray saw the moving stairs that are filled with moving pictures on the walls.

Even the simple painting and pictures in this world are so magical...

As if those pictures are truly alive... Talking to each other, looking at the students and talking with them, singing, fighting, simply relaxing, every picture has an owner that is doing whatever he wants.

Those pictures are so rea,l as if who's inside the pictures is a living person and the picture is his home!

Under the senior guidance, they soon reached the door of their chamber.

There was a fat lady picture who will ask for a password to enter.

Gray and Perona saw similar things before in Moria's Thriller Bark, but the difference is Thriller Bark was just zombies made by shadows, but here it is more magical and lifelike!

The senior said the password, and the fat lady inside the picture allowed them to enter.

After entering their own chamber, there was a big shared room and two other dormitories for male and female students.

This shared room looked nice and neat. Giving a calm feeling.

Gray told Perona to come back here when everyone sleeps in the female dormitory, then went to the male dormitory.

There was nothing there, just a few beds for the new students, Gray quickly find his own.

Harry and Ron the two kids were also looking at Gray with weird faces.

"... Something wrong?" Gray looked around him and wondered why those two kids are looking at him like this.

"Nothing!!" Both Ron and Harry shook their heads and turned back to their beds.

"Are you sure Gray is a boy...." Ron whispered to Harry.

"I'm not sure either, but Grey is wearing a male uniform and has a bed here in boy's dormitory... So he should be... I think" Harry thought for a second and answered.

Both of them thought that Gray was a girl all this time... Even though they saw him wearing a male uniform, but they weren't sure about this either.

Gray behind them naturally heard this... So he looked at them with fishy eyes. Those kids...

He started to wonder if there was a spell in Transfiguration class that could fix his body... Even though with the crown on his head, Gray doesn't have much hope...

After an hour, the students around were tired and went to sleep, only Harry was looking at the window with a smile.

Seeing Harry like this, Gray smiled and said nothing, he knows what Harry is thinking about right now, so he won't disturb him, and left the room silently.

...

Gray walked to the shared room and looked around, but he didn't find Perona, so he waited for another two hours, but she didn't appear...

"She won't be sleeping...." Gray thought of this with a funny feeling.

Thinking of this possibility, Gray sighed...

Come to think about it, his and Perona's day was a very very long day...

She didn't even sleep since they came back from One piece world.

Being trapped in the underground crystal room, stressed till he came and found her, then came to this world... Entering Hogwarts...

Funny how many things happened in one day...

Thinking of this Gray also felt a little heavy inside his head... So he simply checked Perona and found out that she's really asleep, then went back to his bed so he can also get some rest.

...

...

"...." The next day, Gray woke up and found out that most of the students already woke up and started their day.

He actually slept very deep, and only now he was able to wake up! Looks like he was so tired...

Gray stood up and stretched his hands while clearing his mind. Then he walked out of the bedroom and entered the shared room, to find Hermione is also awake.

"Good morning Hermione, is Perona awake?" Gray walked to Hermione's side and asked about Perona.

"She weirdly became a ghost and went out! Gray, how can she do this? I don't remember any book about ghosts or wizard world telling about something like Perona before!" Hermione looked at Gray with doubt, she really searched her memory very well, and found nothing, she's even planning to find the school library soon, and look carefully.

Hearing her words, Gray paused for a second, then he smiled and said nothing.

Before Hermione asks again, Perona came out of the room and jumped to Gray's side.

Looking at the smiling Perona, Gray knows that she also had a good rest. While Hermione was talking, Gray already felt her coming, that why he said nothing.

Perona greeted Gray and Hermione, then told him about yesterday. Because she rested while waiting for the other to sleep, she slept herself, without noticing.

Gray said nothing about this, anyway they have time, they might stay here as students for a long time.... so he's not really in a rush anyway...

After this everything went as if they were normal students, and went to classes, speaking of classes, Gray doesn't know anything about magic till now, so he also followed everyone and attended classes.

And of course, he copied all the useful memories from anyone he had a chance to copy from.

But the more useful knowledge was inside the little smart witch Hermione. No wonder she will become a very good witch in the future. The knowledge inside her head is even better than that inside the Pureblood new students...

Classes passed fast, every class was talking about a current magical subject like magic potions or magical creatures, or even charm and spells and how to defend yourself against them.

And there were some boring classes, that he's not planning to attend in the future... Anyway, he's not here to get a degree in magic... Besides, he can copy... What he's doing here is only to follow the plot and collect benefits...

If he wants to study, he will only focus on what can make him stronger...

Soon it was the flying class and the last class for the first day in the school as a student...

Broom Flight Class...

Harry has shown his talent in this class, while Neville that kid still made things interesting, and lost control over his Broom.

Gray and Perona weren't really interested in this class themselves, after all, relying on an object to fly is not something Gray wants, and Perona can become a soul form, and fly better than anyone.

What Gray and Perona are thinking about is how to get wands... They won't be able to join the classes in the future. Because it's the first day, the teacher turned a blind eye today only...

'Come to think about it... Maybe that room has what we need...
