𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥'𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐭'𝐬, whistling to myself, occasionally skipping my steps because of my happiness, vision still blurry, but I'm fine. And if one could describe my state it would have been drunk... In Happiness That Is! Haa haa ahh haa! Please shoot me.
The Magical Portrait hanging on the walls of Hogwart's looks at me like I'm some sort of an anomaly. which is ironic on its own because most of them are crudely painted, and most if not all of them are whispering to themselves thing's like.
"Has he finally gone mad?" A Witch asked someone right beside her in a hushed tone. Her dress resembled more of a Harlot than a Witch.
"Perhaps he is drunk." A Wizard Portrait dressed as a Charlatan right above the Harlot chimed in, twirling his 1600s-style mustache while he spoke.
"He looks drunk." A Wizard dressed like a Butcher from the very far right said so, not even trying to speak in a hushed tone. Weirdly enough everyone could seem to hear him because some are nodding their head.
"I-is he drunk?" A shy timid Portrait of a Bachelor asked in a frightened tone, his Portrait being placed on the very top.
"He obviously is." A rough voice belonging to a Portrait of a Ruffian said so without filter, his Portrait placed on the left side of the Harlot.
"Obviously not." A Wizard while holding booze said making everyone else stop talking, waiting for him to continue further, this is like asking a math question to someone with Ph.D. in Mathematics "Doesn't look like one to me." The Drunk Wizard added his speech slurring while he shrugged his shoulders. Everyone seems to accept this answer though.
Wow... That... Was... That, a teledrama I just read? No, you didn't hear that wrong, I was indeed reading all their dialogue, I am reading it in a rectangular-shaped hologram, on the left side of my vision actually. That is only visible to me... Shame it ended so fast though, shame I didn't bring any popcorn, oh well.
I started meddling with my System, pulling out a digitally created map in the process, that is currently displaying names similar to that of the Marauders Map, which I wish I had to be honest.
I could see multiple names, people, objects, ghosts, Peeves, and the names of the Professor all displayed using a black fancy ink, their names having fonts that would display their personality, oh and if one is moving then black ink like shoe footprint would follow them. Almost all of the Professors are currently in the Great Hall, which is smaller than the Harry Potter Movie's counterpart. Instead almost looks similar to that of the game, which would have been released a month or two from now if I didn't get isekai'd, damn you, machine gods! Why have you forsaken me?! That's like taking Christmas from a money-loving kid! Cruel as all hell.
Anyways, the names of the Professors that are currently inside sitting in the Great Hall's High Table are as follows, from left to right.
At the very very far left, written in a crooked elegant black ink is Professor [Severus Snape.] Which is the house head for Slytherin, both in this and the original universe of Harry Potter, and the teacher of Potions for the first and soon-to-be second years.
Sitting on his right side is Professor [Rolanda Hooch.] Her font is written similarly to that of a zig-zag, probably because of her profession that of a Quidditch Referee, while under her name is a normal Broom. In this universe, she teaches Broom riding lessons, for first years every Monday, and soon-to-be second years on Friday, the reason why she teaches students about Brooms for two years is that Brooms are difficult to tame, to be honest, and besides 60% of her subject are just normal PE, and sometimes with Brooms. Like Broom-Dodgeball, I joined in, and everyone lose.
Beside her is the very jolly holly Professor [Filius Flitwick.] His font on the other hand could be called fancy yet shows intellect, sadly the name of Professor Flitwick is written as shorter than Professor Severus or Professor Hooch, but it makes up the empty spaces by its decoration. Which is composed of, his Reading Glasses displayed on top of his name, and a weird curly Mustache under his name, he is, of course, the house head for Ravenclaw, and is the perfect teacher for Charms.
Besides Professor Flitwick is the one and only Professor [Minerva McGonagall.] Her font on the other hand is elegant and similar to Professor Hooch's. But is unique enough to be considered different, with a Nimbus 2000 under her name, and a witch hat on top of her name. This woman is of course the house head for Gryffindor and is the teacher of Transfiguration both in this and the original Harry Potter Universe.
Beside Professor McGonagall is... Nothing, that's my chair in the middle, but besides my chair is Professor [Aurora Sinistra.] Her font is elegant and bigger than the others, the O in her name has a Moon drawing into it, and a telescope and other Astronomy objects scattered around, or in her name. She is of course the teacher of Astronomy both in this Universe, and the Harry Potter Universe.
Right beside her is the one and only Professor [Pomona Sprout.] Her font has an Herbology theme in it, which isn't shocking because she is indeed the Herbology teacher for both this Universe and the Original Harry Potter Universe, and she is also the house head of Hufflepuff.
And the next Professor on the High Table is. Surprising, at the very least. Next up! Professor [Rubeus Hagrid.] The Care of Magical Creatures Professor, Keeper of Keys and Grounds of Hogwarts. Hagrid's font isn't shocking, because it is just huge normal font, written in black ink same as the others, it isn't elegant it's just huge. His font decoration is composed of an Umbrella leaning into his R, and his name has a beard and hair covering it, but his name is still readable at the very least.
Alright, that's all of them... Oh yeah, I forgot about Professor [Cuthbert Binns.] his name isn't written in black ink (because his a Ghost), it's just a white transparent color and a reading glass as its decoration. He is of course the teacher of the History of Magic, both in this Universe and the Original Harry Potter Universe. I do wonder what's the kid's reaction is, to reading about the Harry Potter Universe's History, perhaps. Confused? Dazed? Amazed? I wonder if Professor Binns already told them about Ancient Rome, about how it was destroyed in a day... I should tell him to do that, on the next batch. But not now, because Professor Binns is probably sleeping.
While I was deep in thought, i.e giving you exposition, I didn't even notice that two Ghosts. Pearly white-skinned, flying, and transparent Ghosts just flew out from the left side of the wall, a couple of miles away from me talking about something.
"I simply cannot understand old friend. Why did Principal Harp want to tarnish this beautiful untamed land by letting those mug-, no-mage enter?" A Ghost resembling an Aristocrat said to someone right beside him, who is also dressed as an Aristocrat.
"Old friend, don't you understand?" The second Aristocratic Ghost asked his friend, as I quietly watches "We are in new lands, in a new world, far away from our own universe, our home. We have no say on this matter." I wasn't able to hear the First Ghost's response, because both of them already went through the right side of the wall, leaving a confused me.
Is the Ghost taking it lightly? I mean, I just copy and pasted them into a new world? Aren't they confused? Never mind about that, what's for Brunch? Brunch, Brunch, Brunch... That sound's fun~, without me even noticing I already went and become my normal jolly holly self, not caring about anything, except Brunch... Yes, I'll keep calling it Brunch. No one can stop me.
Anyways, I swiped that [System Map.] away from me and started walking into the huge ass wooden door that leads into the Great Hall. This door is made out of wood, I don't know what type it is, but it has engravings of the four house's in it, alongside other stuff that I'm not gonna pretend I know. Besides the giant door is two Magical Portraits, one on the left and the other to the right, It's almost like the two Magical Portraits are a single Magical Portrait that has been split into two.
A Magical Portrait Irish Lady on the left, white hair, reading glasses, and sitting on a wooden rocking chair, rocking it back and forth while knitting, her having a motherly aura. The right Portrait, on the other hand, is that of a Bald Old Man, wearing a brown hat and reading glasses, almost identical to that of the Irish Lady. This man is instead sleeping using a newspaper to cover his face, he instead has the opposite aura of the Irish Lady, because he instead has that aura of a deadbeat father.
The Irish Lady seems to have noticed me approaching and instinctively greeted me with a warm smile plastered into her face. "Oh, good morning Felix." She said while roughly elbowing the sleeping Bald Old Man, waking him up in the process.
"Good morning auntie." I instinctively said while waving at her, stopping in front of the huge door and waiting for it to fully open, while ignoring the annoyed grunt that the Grumpy Old Man on my right produced.
"Can't a man, have a good proper sleep here?! Gosh, darn it." I heard on my right coming from the Grumpy Old Man I call uncle. Oh shit, this is going to be a long banter between them. I know where this is going, so I quickly entered the Great Hall even though the door wasn't fully opened yet, closing it even though it just opened.
Just on cue before the door closes, I heard a loud cartoon-like noise coming out from the Magical Portrait of my uncle, it was followed by a confused response coming out from my uncle "What did I do?"
Magical Portraits. In the System, they are categorized as Decoration by the System, even though they are technically alive, weird categorizing the System has. Even the Ghosts are categorized as Decoration, I mean it's kinda sad, and funny at the same time that they are considered Decorations, I don't know why it's considered funny... But it is.
Ah fuck, all this narrating is making me hungry, should I eat Fried Rice today? I think I should eat Fried Rice today, with Eggs and a Hotdog... Make it a Cheese Hotdog, fuck I'm salivating.
