Chapter 612: Kai’s Goal - Turning Sorting Hat into an Item! (I)
The Great Hall was lit by thousands and thousands of candles that floated in midair over four long tables, where the rest of the students were sitting.
These tables were laid with glittering golden plates and goblets.
Yet, nothing could hide the gloom surrounding the students.
A hush crept through the Great Hall. Whispers slithered from ear to ear. Gazes, burning with fear of the future, news, and the unknown. Hearts, thumping with sheer anxiety. Courage, dwindling.
Black had only felt such raw emotions once before.
It was when The Supreme Protector had carried out the massacre of the Contestants.
A massacre that strangely brought an end to Contestants being teleported to this timeline for Main Missions.
"Haha!" Black laughed.
In the silent hall, his sudden laugh boomed, startling many out of their wits.
Walking closest to him, Harry, Ron, and Professor McGonagall flinched. Then, one by one, all the students turned their heads to look at him, and the teachers' heads followed.
Harry and Ron had already made their peace with Black's strangeness, so they just smiled wryly as Black wiped the laugh off his mouth. Draco and his gang, standing just behind them, frowned in disgust. On the far side, Daphne furrowed her brows. Hermione looked left and right as if she had missed the chance to learn a joke.
