Eren reached out to the support of the train.
Contrary to the previous haphazard choice of wardrobe, as a staff at the most prestigious school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he had dressed himself appropriately for someone who was a staff at the prestigious institution of Hogwarts.
He wore a two-piece dark blue suit, with splendours to compliment his white cream shirt. One of the sleeves was flapping around, while his other and only arm was supporting his body with the help of a Vinewood cane.
33-inch shiny, polished Vinewood cane, acting as a holster and an extension of his wand.
His face was half-covered with bandages, with bangs long to reach his neck.
It had cost him 56 galleons for the whole wardrobe change.
'Ah'
He pulled himself together, finding an empty compartment in the Hogwarts Express, which ran every ten days from London to Hogsmeade.
TRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!
The whistle chimed, and the flag flapped, the sign of the start of a new journey.
He watched the train speed up.
The station passed, and then the empty plains of the Wizarding community came into sight.
A river came by, and the train passed through the waters atop a bridge. It was a sight to behold.
He tried to remember when the last time he had such peace in his life.
The circumstances coming to the Wizarding world were not much different. He had to infiltrate enemy territory.
But there was no Ackerman behind him now. Not to help him defeat his enemies, nor to defeat himself and rein control of his thoughts.
He was the last man standing, and he would make them pay. Pay for the monstrosity they had passed onto him, make them pay for the reason he had to serve bonds made of blood and love, He will make them pay for their sins.
A Unicorn herd passed, and he drifted into sleep for the hours to come.
...
Harry entered the great hall.
The Magical school of Hogwarts, for him, could be described in one word- Magical.
He had everything he needed.
He had unlimited food and not the leftovers, but food made especially for him, and other students of course. No need to be silent or walk on his toes, he could shout here and the worst punishment was not beating hit with a belt, or taking away his loo privilege, but doing extra homework!
He won't lie, he cried for days. Prayed to God for how grateful he was.
Today, was a special feast, as the professors had dubbed it. He was told Hogwarts hosted many feasts annually. The Christmas week-long feast, the Halloween one and many more, the dates of whom he forgot after he was told.
Today, was the new-professor-introducing one, and attendance was not compulsory, but it was frowned upon to not attend the welcome of a new staff member.
On the high table were Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Professor Quirell, and others, the ones who would not teach him until he was in his third year.
Filch, Hogwarts' caretaker, stands grimly to the side as red-eyed Mrs Norris swishes her tail at his feet. As the choir's song concludes, Dumbledore rises, beaming over the sea of black hats.
"Now, on the star of the event, it is my pleasure to introduce Mr. Eren Yeager, who will be joining the staff as the Hogwarts librarian in full capacity. He will also be your Transfiguration and Defence against the Dark Arts tutor, should anyone need him to be."
Eren stands up and gives a respectable bow to the students.
There were murmurs and whispers about the new addition to the staff, which was nothing unexpected. Some were about the conspiracy of Pince's murder, some making fun of Eren's apparent condition while some were worried about the falling hiring standards of the institutions prestigious such as Hogwarts, and how they would have word with their father about this.
"That's him."
"Who Greengrass?"
"That's the man who was found in Diagon Alley half-dead. My sister told me how he looked."
"And you know how?" Pansy side-eyed Daphne.
"Not everyone has half their body and a missing eye if you had not noticed."
Rumors about the new professor ran rampant. How he was the new heir Slytherin after defeating a basilisk, how the headmaster had pitted a random muggle born into the Hogwarts mill, how he had killed Madame Irma for her position or how he was Merlin himself, who came back after observing how the Wizarding education standards were stumbling down.
...
..
Harry, was surprised to see the man at the High table.
Surprised, but not bothered.
He had met Mr Yeager, as he was introduced not at the Wizarding Bank- GinGotts something- he did not bother remembering them past their gold withdrawal.
Unlike some of his classmates, like Malfoy, who was ranting about how he had not heard of a House or even a family Yeager, so he concluded the professor had been a muggle-born or Ron, who was not bothered by his blood status but judged by Mr Yeager's missing limbs, Harry was not bothered, not at all.
At the end of the day, Mr Yeager was kind when offered help or so Harry had concluded after their first meeting at the Goblin bank.
Maybe he could receive help in the potions, after all the headmaster had said himself that Mr Yeager would act as the Librarian and tutor for the students. (Harry conveniently ignored the Defence and Transfiguration only from the statement).
He looked at Hermione, who was, for some reason blushing after the sight of the man.
'...that's weird.' Indeed it was.
He silently gulped another glass of pumpkin juice. As bad it tasted for him, and the majority of the students, he did not complain about the taste and was grateful for just being served food, unlike his partner who was ranting about the taste of every meal.
In the end, Harry did not notice the stare he was receiveign from the new Librarian.
Which did go unnoticed by the likes of Dumbledore, but the Potions Professor had long since eached to his conclusion to the new addition of the staff, and what his aim to be at the postion would be.
