Chapter 32 - Fantasy uniform

"HEY! WATCH YOUR STEPS!" roared a youth.

"Sorry. Passing through…" replied Eden as he squeaked through the crowd.

"Watch! Where you are going, boy!" scolded a boy pushing the boy away when Eden managed his foot and ran further to the end.

In the grand hall children, teens, and youths with the combinations of all the other beings like elves, fairies, young knights, dragon boys, winged humans, Dracula, and summoners.

Everyone who was invited finally caught up to the school.

Here, there were thousands of wide tables where students were instructed by maids, servants, and Butlers towards their seats.

Every single student was led by a servant to take their chair, avoiding the raising of arguments.

A maid in a dark dress and an apron opened a chair requesting a human girl, "Please take your seat here."

"Thank you" nodded the girl fairy with a smile and sat down.

Another servant caught a naughty elf who was running and hopping around like a frog saying, "COME HERE!" he dragged him to another table, pulled open the chair, and glued him on the seat concluding,

"SIT HERE!"

"OK!" cheered the creature.

Within a few minutes to seconds, the crowd rapidly decreased as the students were called from far bringing them forth to their seats.

In the meantime, Eden stood at the corner scanning around, wondering where he moved, "It's all crowded here." Thought the boy when a man's shadow shaded him.

He gazed up, viewing a man in an elegant butler suit, in a gentle smile he introduced himself,

"Hello, lad. I am the main butler here. I am responsible for directing all the staff of maids and servants towards their duties and you are…."

"I am Eden" greeted the boy still refusing to use the name Locker by side.

"Nice name. I see you are out of seats. Let me help you find one. Follow me" said the Butler resting his palm on the boy's shoulder as they paced further.

The Main Butler along with Eden was scanning for a seat in the huge hall whereas, Eden was curious about the uniforms.

He noticed there were three types of uniforms all the students wore in two different genders.

Students who were younger than him wore vest coats, full-sleeved shirts, and pants.

The little ones had their shirt white shirts, and black pants while their vest coats carried specific colors for different students.

Those of Eden's age or a bit older wore uniforms similar to Eden's type however with different lace colors yet, all in white and hats.

The older ones who seemed to be in higher grades wore deep blue sea color long overcoats and black pants with blue top hats. They seem gentle men from the 17 century.

Each student carried different colour lace for themselves on their coats not to mention top hats and high boots up to their knees.

On the other side, for female students, little girls wore Lolita in different colours matching the bows on their heads.

Girls of Eden's age or older wore long tiered skirts with ruttles type skirts to their heels and eased waistcoats over their high-neck shirts, clipped with crystal buttons. Their heads had bonnets, each girl had a different design dress specific to herself and all wore maroon colors. Only the laces were odd from one another.

The senior girls wore the princess swing long coats layering over their Prarie long skirts with heels and bucket hats on their heads on their heads.

Eden felt quite wired by observing all this.

He knew all these were worn at parties but then how could someone take it as a uniform?

It felt awkward.

"Are these all our uniforms?" asked Eden suddenly to the Butler.

"Why yes! It is. Why? Do you feel it strange?" he asked.

"Not strange but, scary" replied Eden turning straight.

"Scary?" surprised the Butler when the boy only nodded.

This made him shrug as they arrived in front of a table.

"Here you go. Have a seat here." He opened an empty seat, greeting him to it.

"Thank you so much." the boy took his seat.

"The dinner will be severed once the Great Lord attends the hall." remained the butler all the students on the table as he bowed and left.

There were lots of students seated around the table, all men, quietly resting.

Each lad wanted to talk but, they waited for who should begin.

A few minutes passed with all lips shut when one of them in yellow lace broke the ice,

"Man, I am starving."

"Me, too." added a green lace suit boy.

"Unpacking our kinds of stuff paid us a long time." added a brown lace boy.

They all sighed at once when a boy right side of Eden spoke, "Well, we are commonly used to our parent aids. Our mothers mostly help us with our chores however, this was the first time we had to do it ourselves."

"YOU ARE RIGHT!" drowned the circle in frustration.

The boy giggled as he seemed decent and obedient in his manners. He veered at Eden and introduced,

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am a wizard and my name is Audrey. The same age as yours."

This boy was in dark blue lace with straight pointed ears.

"Oh!" surprised Ede when another boy at the left of Eden said,

"It sure is nice to meet you two. Right here I am a Vampire, a noble type and my name is Layzen." This student was a holder of black lace.

"Eden" smiled the boy in red lace introducing himself, "A magus"

"A MAGUS!!" roared the entire table.
