McGonagall took a moment to allow the cheering and hooting of the students. Meanwhile, Somi and Jihoon stared at Jungkook.

"It's really true!" Jihon said.

"Wait, let's listen to all the details!" Somi said.

McGonagall silenced everyone and all attention was back to her again.

"We will be the host to the two other participating schools of the Tournament, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. The condition will still be the same as it is 24 years ago. Only students who are at the age of seventeen and above will be allowed to be a champion."

The students took the condition lightly as they have all been familiar with this rule. The Hufflepuff table were a bit quiet and visibly doubtful about the Tournament. No one could blame them. When the Tournament was last held at Hogwarts, a champion from their house ended up murdered, and the Dark Lord rose again.

"Rest assured that every student will be safe while this Tournament is ongoing," McGonagall said. "Each task contains danger, but watchers will be stationed to keep track of the champions and aide in case of an emergency. Every person involved in managing the tasks will be constantly monitored, so that no mistake shall be made." 

Jungkook noticed that the headmistress put an emphasis to the word 'mistake'. The students murmured again and Somi looked convinced about the mentioned safety precaution. Jihoon, meanwhile, looked uninterested about the Tournament and stared hungrily at the table, wishing a roast turkey would magically appear before him at this moment. Jungkook had his eyes around the Great Hall, trying to see which student looked interested in putting their name into the Goblet.

McGonagall cleared her throat, earning all attention once more. "Now, everyone. Please stand up as we welcome our guests from Beauxbatons Academy of Magic!"

The doors of the Great Hall opened, and students in silver robes entered in a line. The atmosphere suddenly seemed very light and Jungkook felt like he was being drawn to something. No, to someone. His full attention was turned towards the ladies of Beauxbatons, whom he swore were not humans. They were more like fairies. They were oozing with grace and elegance, even by just walking with a blank expression. Jihoon stared at the ladies too with his jaw dropped. He seemed to forget about the turkey now.

"Veela?" Somi asked, more to herself.

"Why do they not make them like that at Hogwarts?" Jihoon said.

The students of Beauxbatons settled themselves to the front, followed by an enormous woman who shook McGonagall's hand and grinned at Hagrid, whom Jungkook thought turned a shade of pink.

"Let's make way for our other guests from Durmstrang Institute!" McGonagall said.

The doors of the Great Hall opened once more, and students in brown fur cloaks over blood-red robes and a fur hat over their heads walked in. Jihoon once again dropped his jaw and tapped Jungkook on the shoulder.

"It's him!!!" He cried.

"Who?" Jungkook asked.

"Jackson Wang!!! The best Seeker Quidditch has ever seen!"

"Is it really?" Jungkook asked, scanning through the Durmstrang students to spot Wang. At the same time, he noticed that Somi was grinning and skipping up and down.

"They really look like normal wizards to me, except Wang's there. Oh wait, don't tell me..." Jungkook said, eyeing Somi's doe-eyed expression.

"Look, they're getting the Goblet," Somi said, quickly changing her expression back to neutral.
