    {3rd Person POV}

    *Knock Knock* *Knock Knock* *Knock Knock*

    ''Who the fuck is that?'' Rigel woke up to the sounds of his door being subjected to a battering ram. He jerked awake, shifted, and quickly sat up; since his door was locked by the wards, the muffled sound reverberated through his room.Ge?t latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

    He quickly got up and walked toward the door. He whispered the password in Parseltounge and felt the veil of mana covering his door lift.

    *Bang Bang* *Bang Bang* *Bang Bang*

    ''What time even is it?'' Rigel thought as he opened the door. He backed away as Marcus Flint''s fist slammed down, missing both the now-opened door and his head. Rigel stared at the Slytherin prefect, who was staring at him. After a moment, Marcus said, "House meeting. Get dressed and come to the common room."

    With that, the older Slytherin walked away and started hammering on Blaise''s door. Rigel closed his door and went toward his wardrobe. He simply grabbed his school robes and put them on.

    "Mundare~" Rigel chanted as he used the cleaning spell and used it on his teeth. The Cleaning spell was a household charm that was a lot softer in its effects than the Scouring Charm. He had tried Scourgify~ once, and that spell had rubbed his skin raw. There was no way he was going to use something like that on his mouth. Just the thought of getting his tongue rubbed raw was unpleasant.

    "Come on, let''s go," Daphne tugged at his sleeve again, and with a sigh, he finally relented. He would look at the names after settling in. Rigel followed along with the rest of the first years as a nervous tension lingered around their group. Everyone was double-checking every corner as they swiftly made their way to the Great Hall.

    Out of the four houses, Slytherin''s common room was the closest to their destination, as the entrance to the dungeons was right beside the grand staircase. Rigel''s eyes lingered along Dumbledore''s figure. The old wizard was wearing an embroidered white robe, and only because his mana sense confirmed that the robe was a transfigured object did he not look at the old man like he had gone insane.

    Rigel looked around. The tables were gone, making it pretty easy for him to guess what had transpired. He wanted to look at the map, but at the same time, he knew what Dumbledore would do next.

    ''The school will be on lockdown, so at least the rat will not have any time to run,'' Rigel thought.

    After Slytherin and Hufflepuff arrived, most of the students were rubbing their eyes, trying to get rid of the sleep. Ravenclaw and Gryffindor''s common room was the farthest away from the Great Hall, so it took them some time to arrive. Right away, Rigel could see the difference between Slytherin and the other houses. Most of them didn''t even try to use the basic charms to fix their appearances as they trudged into the room.

    *Bang*

    "Attention!" Dumbledore shouted once everyone was in. His wand erupted with a loud noise as everyone tuned in to look at the old wizard who was dressed for a ball.

    ''Let''s go. Once he conjures the bedrolls for everyone, I could duck into it and take a look at the map...''
