Chapter 277: 277. Before The Halloween Night

31st October. Halloween day.

London,

Grace woke up at 5 in the morning. It was her schedule as she had to work out to remain in shape even though she was pregnant. She didn't want any stretch marks and as a doctor, she understood how they can be avoided.

The best way was to gain weight slowly, in a steady fashion so the skin does not tear up. But, she felt a bit anxious today. She had been feeling that since midnight.

So today she just went to have a walk in the garden. Chad quickly ran to her to accompany her, as it was his duty. He was the guardian of the house after all.

Grace caressed Chad, "Hmm, you're the best stress reliever. Come, I will get you your breakfast."

To divert her mind, she played with him.

...

Hogwarts,

Magnus got up early as he had a lot of things to do today. It was Halloween, the awesome party was going to take place, as well as their first Hogsmeade outing.

"HORR..." Summer was already sitting over his chest.

Magnus patted her head, "Thank you, Summer. It seems it's going to be sunny today. Good. OYE! YOU TWO! Get up. It's Halloween."

"Tsk... that's at night, let me sleep right now." Ragnar hissed and turned to the other side, putting a pillow on his head. Severus just grunted and didn't say anything.

Sighing, Magnus alone got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up. He wore his normal clothes today as it was a holiday, meaning no classes. It was also pretty cold now so he wore a sweater with a pattern of Chad, Summer and Duck on it, even though he didn't need it. Grandma Martha had made it. Even Ragnar and Severus had a matching one. He had also asked one for Emma, so he went out to give it to her.

He arrived at the common room. It was already bustling with the early birds. These included mostly the students who were either athletic or good at studying.

By now, everyone had gotten used to music. It was like a daily routine for the first student to wake up to put the music on. Most loved sitting around the fireplace in the common room and drinking hot chocolate or some other hot beverage.

Especially now, in winters, the vibes were very home-like. Students would sit together, be it young or old, they would talk about school, studies, the world or anything else.

Today too, many were discussing their costumes for the evening. Magnus had even invited the school to trick or treat in Hogsmeade. The shop owners and dwellers there were cheerfully expecting them tonight.

He approached a girl and asked her a favour, "Can you go and wake Emma up? Tell her I'm waiting for her here."

She nodded and went to the girl's dorms. Meanwhile, he took a seat between the rest of his house-mates by the fireplace.

"Woah, Mr Pendragon, you are radiating heat." One of the boys at his side exclaimed.

He chuckled, "Well, there is some truth to that surname "Pendragon". My body naturally stays warm at all times."

"That's so cool. Here I am, with my balls freezing." Another one blurted.

*BAM*

He reviewed a knock on the head by the head girl, "Language."

It was a very cheerful environment. Most would talk about stupid things with Magnus. But every once in a while someone would ask for advice or something.

"Mr Pendragon, you are famous for your successful businesses. How do you do it? How is it that all your businesses are a success? I want to get rich too." One asked.

He answered him in detail, "Well, the best strategy to start a successful business is to first understand the market. A product or any company can only exist and thrive when there are buyers. So, one should look around, see what people actually desire and then provide what they desire, even with better quality.

"But if you just want to get rich, then invest all your money in technology stocks. The technological world is soon going to be seeing a big boom."

Many took his advice to heart. And unknown to Magnus, because of his words, many would become millionaires and some would actually end up starting their own companies.

"Mr Pendragon, how are you so good at magic?" A curious 1st year asked.

"Practice and perseverance. And maybe some talent. I may have a strong bloodline, but that means nothing if I do not learn and practice. Just like how no matter how fast a broom you give to a rookie quidditch player, he can never beat a national player with a slower broom." He said, motivating them to train more.

Slytherin house was slowly turning into a family, with Magnus at the top. And this was what he had planned from the beginning. In the future, he wanted all houses to feel like this, that they were one big family and he was at the top. This way, he will have eyes and ears inside the school even when he passes out. Also, he can recruit talents while they are like diamonds in the rough.

Soon, Emma arrived and Magnus left the small crowd. He greeted her and handed her the package, "Take this, my Grandma Martha sent me this. Sev and Rag have one too."

Emma opened it and found a light green sweater with patterns. She loved it and held it close to her chest, "REALLY? For me? Awesome, it's like an early Christmas present. Thank you, Magnus."

"Well, what are you waiting for? Wear it already. We need to go to the great hall and see the decorations. Old man Dumbledore shrugged his responsibility and made me the supervisor for it." He annoyedly complained.

Emma quickly wore the sweater and walked with him. She was happy that she was being included in the group more now. Not like she had many close friends in the house anyway.

"So, what else are you going to show me? I bet you have lots of secrets." She asked.

He chuckled, "Calm down. I will show you everything slowly. It's too much to digest, to be honest. But, since I have decided to make you a good friend, I guess I will have to trust your stupid brain."

"HEY! I'm not stupid, I'm just not good at all subjects. And what about you? I can call you stupid too seeing your potion classroom performance." She attacked back.

Magnus argued, "Yet I never failed."

"That's because Professor Slughorn wants to be on the good side of the next king of Britain." She said.

Magnus raised his finger to deny it but he could not. He knew what she said was right. So he cursed, "Dammit..."

"Hehe... I guess it's Emma one and Mag zero now." She proudly claimed and ran past him.

Magnus followed, "Since when did this become a competition?"

...

He looked around at the Great Hall. It was restricted for students right now as the elfs were working to clean it and decorate it.

Magnus, seeing them work so hard, decided to help. "You all consider me your king. A good king always stands beside his subjects. So let me help."

With this logic, they could not force him out or smash their own heads on the walls. Magnus helped them put on giant chandeliers, large showpieces and contraptions meant to scare people.

Pumpkin lights were made to hang from the ceiling. Magnus also checked the gloomy sky projection on the ceiling. Once it was all checked, he headed to the kitchen to see if they needed any help. If their workload was too much he was going to reduce some items from the menu.

But, the elfs seem to have no problem. They were just so good at it. But he felt bad, why? Well, to prepare this dinner, all elfs had to work.

Meaning that their normal schedule, where one group would sleep and one would work, was now disrupted. Due to this, after the dinner, the whole elf population will have to work the whole 24 hours.

Magnus was not a heartless bastard. "Everyone. All of you will have tomorrow afternoon off. So you all can play with the puppies and sleep. No, do not worry about the food, I will organise it myself from outside. This is an order from me."

Many wanted to protest, but it was the king's decree now. Magnus triumphantly walked out of the kitchen.

"You are so kind to them." Emma praised him.

"Someone has to be kind to them because they sure are not kind to themselves," Magnus said. And maybe this was why he was able to win over the elfs.

"But how will you get tomorrow's lunch?" She inquired.

He smiled, looking at her face. He knew she was going to get excited. "Well, I decided to order pizzas from around the world."

"REALLY? AWESOME!" She jumped in excitement and hugged him. Pizza was her favourite food, but they didn't make it in school.

He chuckled and pushed her slowly, "Okay okay, let's go now and get ready for the evening. We will meet outside the castle entrance at 6 PM."

Emma had stars in her eyes. She had prepared her dress very carefully and was excited to show it to everyone, especially Magus.

"Cool, I will see you later." And she ran away.

[A/N: O boy, this is going to be a long night for Magnus and the rest.]

Chapter 278: 278. Magnus' Bellatrix

[A/N: WN won't let me post the Grandpa Universe bonus chapter anymore. So I uploaded it to my Discord. Check its Media channel's pins.]

________________

Magnus noticed that he wouldn't have time to attend the party if he were to go Trick or Treating. So he decided to attend the party and meet everyone before heading out.

He wore his nun outfit and went out with his friends. Severus and Ragnar followed him behind. The three looked like some church nuns and it was more funny than scary. Emma had not come out yet for some reason.

He arrived at the party hall at 6 PM. He'd stay here till 8, which was dinner time. This way he can also eat. Quickly, he found Dumbledore. The old man had just worn robes that had a skeleton made on them.

"Let me guess, you are the skeleton?" Magnus asked.

"Correct. I am a skeleton today. But I decided not to put the makeup on." Dumbledore replied goofily.

"What's even the point? Your long beard has covered more than half of the skeleton. Maybe you should have tried to wear an evil senile old wizard makeup. It would have matched with the beard." Magnus suggested him.

*Cough* "That would not have been good, since most pureblood supremacists do call me senile and evil." Dumbeldore argued.

Chuckling, Magnus breathed, "They aren't wrong though."

"You said something?" Dumbledore didn't hear him.

"AH! LOOK! Professor Flitwick is dressed as a Gnome." Magnus ran away from him.

Soon, he found Moody. "What are you acting as?"

"I am Auror Moody," Moody answered.

Magnus scratched his head, "What do you mean? I asked what are you dressing as?"

"I am currently working as professor Moody, so I dressed as Auror Moody." Moody smartly replied.

Magnus couldn't help but facepalm, "You are too... too much of a party pooper. At least put these fake horns on your head."

He handed him a headband with a glowing red horn. He had been giving it to mostly everyone who seemed under-dressed for the evening. And there were plenty. Although Magnus liked Hufflepuff, this was also a fact that they were one of the most boring folks in the school. They would rarely do something out of the ordinary.

Even today, they did not dress that well, or it was right to say that they didn't put much effort into it. Most of them had come wearing high-collar robes. They said they were acting as draculas. But, the problem was that a majority of them were acting the same creature. So he had to give all of them the horns.

The best-dressed houses were Ravenclaw, since they were perfectionists, they tried to wear the best scary dress. Then there was Slytherin, since the whole thing was Magnus' idea they had to work hard.

Magnus, after roaming around, went to Gryffindor four. Sirius and James had worn zombie clothes, with clothes torn up from here and there and fake rotten meat patterns on their faces. Peter Pettegrew was wearing a costume of a rat. Remus was wearing makeup for a unicorn. He even had the fake horn on his forehead.

"Bwahaha... Remus, what the hell is that? Why did you become a unicorn?" Magnus laughed at his face.

"I could ask the same. Why did you genderbend and become a nun?" Remus asked.

"That's probably his weird fetish," Sirius added.

Magnus scoffed, "Huh, nuns can be very scary. You will know once you will see the latest movie my company is going to release."

"What's a movie?" James asked.

Magnus was shocked, "Y-You... god, you four are so dumb. Just imagine a camera, but one that can record continuous footage that looks like a continuous video. Then imagine voice and other sounds like music in it too. Specially scripted such videos are called movies. Muggles go and watch these movies on the big screen in theatres."

"Wait... what's the point of doing this?" Sirius inquired.

Magnus facepalmed, "Tell me, would you love to watch a video of someone heroically defeating dozens of enemies and saving the world?"

"Absolutely, every man aspires to be the saviour of the world," Sirius claimed.

"Exactly, these movies are made so you can live through something otherwise impossible. People watch them because they want to imagine things that would normally not happen. Ugh... I'm going. I can't explain everything to you. Go to muggle world every once in a while, instead of sitting in one hole forever." He snarkily said and moved on.

"Hey, Magnus." Lily greeted him. She was wearing a Maleficent costume. Most wizards would not recognise her but he did.

"Haha, finally someone is trying to look evil. But I think you made it look too beautiful." he complimented her.

She blushed, "I tried my best. You don't look scary either."

He chuckled, "Well, now that so many people have said it, I don't even know why I chose to wear this. But the harm is done. Oh, I will go now. The minister is here."

He headed to great the minister. But on his way, he saw Professor McGonagall, dressed as a dementor. Dementor was one of the most used costumes because of how easy it was. Beside her was Professor Slughorn, who had funny enough, dressed as a slug.

Hagrid stood behind them. He was probably one of those who didn't even need a dress. He already looked like a villain from some story. But, he was a gentle giant.

"Hey, Hagrid. Eat all you want today." He greeted the big man.

Hagrid cheered after seeing him. "Magnus, yeh've done great. This party looks amazin'. I shall eat some puddin' and get some fattenin' done. Hahaha. Oh, guess what I am today."

"Umm... you tell me," Magnus asked. Since all Hagrid wore was a simple cone hat and some loose white robes.

"Bwahaha... don' yeh see? I'm professor Dumbledore. I made this meself." Hagrid happily showed off his white robes.

Magnus chuckled, "Shouldn't you have made your beard white too?"

"BLIMEY! I forgot." Hagrid bumped himself on his head.

Magnus waved his wand, "Don't worry, I got you, my friend. With one single spell, your beard will look white for a day."

*Woosh*

Hagrid lifted his own beard to see. It was indeed white now. He laughed and hugged Magnus by lifting him up.

*Pat Pat* "Why don't you go and show this to the professor himself?"

Finally, after a minute he left Magnus and let him breathe once again.

The dinner was about to be served and most guests had arrived. Magnus spent another hour greeting everyone he could. From the Wizengamot members to ministry heads. Even Adrian, Ted and Edgar had arrived.

"Haha... you should have brought Nymphadora today." Magnus greeted his business partners and good friends. The first members of the secret Order of Merlin.

"I wanted to, but Andromeda still does not trust her family. She fears they could harm Nymphadora." Ted said in concern.

Adrain patted his shoulder, "Let's hope this dark lord can die soon so we all can openly live our lives."

"Yup. I would very much prefer his death." Magnus sighed.

"What have you been up to, Magnus? We know you have started some new projects." Ted asked him.

Magnus sighed, "Well, I can not tell you about them here. They are top-secret, even state secret if you think about it. Though to formalise those plans, I will need help from you three. How is the expansion going?"

Adrain answered, "The Golden Company now has about 40,000 personnel. Half of them are currently receiving 1-year training. Once that's over, you will have the most lethal muggle army in the world. Bobby contacted me a few weeks ago. He said he wants to try and offer some military equipment to us. I guess he finally went into the military manufacturing sector. Besides this, now MEDA has about 8,000 wizards worldwide."

Magnus was very happy with this development. "Cap the Golden Company at 50,000. Instead, hire management staff for those 50,000 soldiers. Also develop a promotion scheme, given on the basis of merit. What about you, Edgar. Emrys Construction is a very important part of my future plans."

Edgar chuckled, "Nobody knows that better than me, Your Majesty. The projects in Saudi will be over by April next year. In record time that is. We're already making a documentary about it. We've even started the initial planning phase of the Channel Tunnel. As for the employees, Emrys Construction now has 15,000 wizards in total. We are the biggest job provider to wizards. In fact, I have contacted many wizarding schools around the world and asked them to allow magical companies to come to their school every year to offer jobs to final year students. Most European and North American schools have agreed. The Japan one might too in a few months."

Magnus nodded in satisfaction. He liked the fact that these CEOs of his companies were not braindead. They used their heads and their ideas to move the company forward.

When it was just 15 minutes till dinner, he returned to Severus and Ragnar. "Where is Emma?"

"I don't know." Ragnar shrugged.

"Look, there she is." Severus voiced.

Magnus turned to look at the door. There she stood, wearing a nun dress, fitted perfectly in a way that complimented her figure and exploding youth. But, hers was very different. She... she wore an inverted cross, her arms and legs portion was shredded, showing her pale skin. She was even wearing gloves. But the best part was her makeup. She had most likely used magic to make her eyes look demonic black, with her mascara smudged under the eyes in a long streak.

Magnus was awestruck. He had never felt like this before... at least not for Emma. "Woah... she... she looks so... beautiful." He unknowingly muttered.

Ragnar and Severus didn't have such an effect on them. So when Ragnar heard this, he snorted and commented, "Sev, you said it right, my brother. Emma is Magnus' Bellatrix."
