Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts

After Professor Sprout took over the research on the new fertilizer, Moon relaxed a lot.

He also had more time to do other magical research.

This time, when Moon came from the Scarlet Moon, he brought a small bag of batfish powder and three large conch shells.

He gave the largest of the Flame Shells to Professor Sprout for her to use in researching the new fertilizer.

As for the other two, they were temporarily placed in the dormitory, hidden in a suitcase under the bed.

Moon originally thought he had hidden them well enough, but he forgot that he had a pet who was good at finding things.

When Moon left the club and returned to the dormitory, he saw a strange scene.

A large conch shell appeared on the dormitory floor.

And next to the conch shell lay a Niffler and a toad.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing these two pets staring at the conch shell covetously, Moon knew that something bad might happen.

"Chirp!" (It smells so good!)

"Croak~" (Hard~)

Bung Bung's focus is always more unique than other pets, and it expresses itself more accurately.

"Do you want to eat it?"

"Chirp!" (Yes!)

Seeing Bung Bung jumping anxiously on the ground, Moon didn't say much, but directly took out his wand and cast the [Softening Charm] three times on the Flame Shell.

After Moon retracted his wand, Bung Bung quickly ran over, stretched out its little claws, and very easily took out a seafood feast from the shell.

"Chirp~" (Cut it open~)

Moon used a [Severing Charm] to easily split the conch meat in half.

After the two little pets got the food, they ate it in big mouthfuls.

Because the Flame Shell was relatively large, neither of the pets finished it in the end.

Moon had to cast a [Preservation Lock] and stuff the conch meat back into the shell.

Lefou returned to its iron box to sleep after eating, but Bung Bung kept chatting with Moon after the meal.

"Chirp~" (Delicious~)

"I'm glad you like it. If you can really come to my house, there will be a lot of this kind of thing."

"Chirp?" (Really?)

"Of course, and there will also be a little girl to play with you."

Hearing that there was a playmate, Bung Bung's eyes lit up, and then it quickly ran back to its little wooden house to rummage for something.

After a while, it took out a magic wand toy and ran out.

"Chirp chirp!" (This is for her!)

Seeing Bung Bung take out the gift that he had given it before the start of school, Moon nodded and smiled.

"I think she will like it."

At Hogwarts, every day is very fulfilling, and Moon can learn new magical knowledge every day.

On Tuesday morning, Moon, out of curiosity, began to study "The Origins of Alchemy" borrowed from the library.

After visiting the library yesterday, Moon found that there were not many books on alchemy in the public book area of the library.

And only alchemy enlightenment books and some alchemy journals were open to lower grade students.

After finding Madam Pince to register, Moon borrowed all the alchemy-related materials that he could borrow.

From the strange look in the librarian's eyes, Moon could roughly guess that there should not be many lower grade students studying alchemy.

"The Origins of Alchemy" records that this complex magic originated in ancient Egypt.

It is consistent with the time when the earliest magic records appeared.

The book analyzes that the reason for the formation of alchemy is that ancient wizards discovered that certain substances could undergo wonderful changes under the action of magic when exploring the mysteries of life, death, and the soul, and then launched various studies.

"No wonder these explanations are familiar, it turns out that potion making belonged to the category of alchemy in ancient times."

Among the magic that Moon can currently access, the most similar to alchemy should be potion making. In this book, it is recorded in detail that ancient wizards did not separate potions and alchemy.

Until later, potion making focused more on natural materials, such as herbs, plants, and animal organs.

While alchemy used more metals and minerals.

After the wizards who studied these two kinds of magic diverged, potion making was separated from alchemy.

Of course, the development paths of these two kinds of magic also differed after they were separated.

Potions now pay more attention to meeting the various needs of wizards in the real world.

Alchemy, on the other hand, pays more attention to the change of the essence of matter and the improvement of the spiritual level of wizards.

"It seems that potion development is faster than alchemy, and it's not without reason."

In Moon's opinion, wizards invent all kinds of things to solve the needs in reality.

And alchemy is obviously somewhat disconnected from the lives of modern wizards.

Of course, in addition to the demand, the difficulty of alchemy itself also determines that its development is far less convenient and fast than potions.

Alchemy not only requires very high materials, but also these materials are very difficult to process after they are obtained. If you want to perfectly process these rare metal and mineral materials, you must master a lot of Transfiguration basics.

Of course, the most important point is that the refining time span of alchemy is very long, at least in years.

So some powerful alchemists are some old wizards who are old.

After roughly browsing "The Origins of Alchemy", Moon flipped through the alchemy journals.

Most of these newspapers come from Egypt, because the largest alchemy research center in the magical world is built there.

Moreover, various international alchemy events are often held in Cairo.

So Egypt is the source of first-hand news of alchemy in the magical world.

Moon could not understand many of the nouns recorded in these journals.

However, he was more interested in the people recorded in the journals who had researched new things through alchemy.

Moon found a familiar name among these people.

Albus Dumbledore.

This wizard, who is recognized as the greatest of modern times, won the Gold Medal for Pioneering Contribution at the Cairo International Alchemy Conference at the age of 17.

"The headmaster is really amazing!"

After having a basic understanding of alchemy, Moon was able to understand how difficult it was to obtain this award.

To win the highest gold medal in the most difficult research field in the magical world, and at the age of 17.

Especially since Moon knew that Hogwarts only taught alchemy starting in the sixth grade.

This shows that his headmaster may not have been studying alchemy for a very long time.

All of this is enough to prove that Dumbledore has a very high talent in alchemy.

"No wonder Hermione said that Transfiguration is the foundation of alchemy."

Ron once told Moon that Dumbledore was the Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts before becoming headmaster.

Now it seems that this is not without reason.

While Moon was sitting in the common room studying alchemy materials, the members of the Gryffindor Quidditch team also came out one after another.

Harry packed up all his equipment and that precious flying broom and sat on the sofa waiting for the others.

"If I had your drive to get up early and study, I might be able to win the championship this year."

This Saturday is Gryffindor's first game of this year's House Cup.

Because they haven't won the championship for four consecutive years, everyone on the team is under a lot of pressure.

Wood is also constantly fighting for practice time on the field.

"I think you can definitely do it, after all, you fly very well."

Moon never hesitated to praise his friends, especially since Harry really had a talent for flying.

Moon judged that Harry's flying talent did not only rely on his performance on the field.

The main thing is that every time Harry finishes Quidditch training and comes back, his wizarding power will increase significantly.

Now, the length of the wizarding bar above Harry's head has reached 3/4 of a square, which has already caught up with the second tier among the original first-year wizards.

That is, Malfoy, Susan Bones, and them.

Of course, this tier has now been reduced to the third tier, because there are two people in front of them who have obviously opened up a long distance.

One is Hermione, whose wizarding bar is about to fill one square,

The other is Moon Scarlitt, who already has one and a half squares.

Moon's rapid growth of the wizarding bar occurred after he mastered silent casting.

Although Moon experienced a life-and-death juncture, he also gained a lot.

Of course, now that Moon's wizarding bar has changed, his pursuit target is no longer on the first-year classmates.

Even the second-year seniors are the same, their wizarding bars are mostly around one square.

The longest one is about the same as Moon, so Moon set his sights on the third-year little wizards.

Among the third-year students, Moon has the most contact with the twins.

The wizarding bars of these two red-haired Weasleys are actually about the same as Moon's.

However, another third-year student, Cedric, his wizarding bar has already reached three-quarters of the second square.

And Moon's next goal is to catch up with Cedric.

Moon once carefully observed the length of the wizarding bars of most students in the school in the auditorium. He found that in the third and fifth grades, the little wizards would open up a very obvious distance.

The longer wizarding bars of the third grade are about to complete the second square, but there are also many wizards who are not yet full of one square.

The fifth grade is the same, but the span at this time is even greater, the most excellent ones are already full of three squares, but the shortest ones are only one square.

Hermione once told Moon that third-year students will face elective courses and come into contact with more magical knowledge,

And the fifth grade is to face the O.W.L.s exam, which forces students to systematically review and strengthen the magical knowledge they have mastered.

Moon felt that this should also be a key factor for the little wizards to open up the distance.

In Tuesday's Herbology class, Professor Sprout explained a new herb plant: Rosemary.

This is a common herb plant with slender, gray-green leaves, small purple flowers, and a very strong fragrance.

"Students, rosemary is an important material for making invigorating potions. It can also be used to make some magical potions that enhance memory and attention. If you don't mind, you can smell it more."

After Professor Sprout finished speaking, most of the little wizards sniffed the flowers in front of them vigorously.

The most diligent one was Neville.

Because he sniffed too hard, the little wizard inhaled a lot of pollen, and then started sneezing non-stop.

Hermione was obviously also very concerned about enhancing memory ability.

After the Herbology class, with Professor Sprout's permission, she picked a rosemary flower that was in full bloom.

And Moon was stopped by Professor Sprout when he was about to leave the greenhouse.

"Mr. Scarlitt, Headmaster Dumbledore has agreed to let me strengthen the protection of that plant again."

Professor Sprout smiled when she spoke. She originally thought that Dumbledore would not agree.

After all, when she made this suggestion yesterday, the greatest headmaster pondered for a long time.

"That's great, this way we don't have to worry about how to deal with the extra Sleeping Narcissus."

Moon was also very happy.

"That's right, these little things that easily make people fall asleep should not be discarded casually. Putting them in a place where students can't reach them should be the most suitable."

Moon very much agreed with Professor Sprout's point of view.

In his opinion, a small amount of Sleeping Narcissus is still within the controllable range, and it can also help refine potions.

But once these little things start to grow wildly, it will definitely easily lead to some accidents.

"Professor, do you need me to help you move the Sleeping Narcissus over?"

") ,

"Oh, I can do this myself. Headmaster Dumbledore instructed that it is best not to let the students know."

"Okay."

Moon had no intention of exploring the secrets that the headmaster wanted to protect. In his opinion, this mysterious headmaster was completely different from other wizards.

Dumbledore gave Moon the feeling that he could see through everything.

This made Moon, who had a huge secret on his body, very uncomfortable.

However, Professor Sprout's mention of Dumbledore's name reminded Moon of the alchemy news he saw in the common room this morning.

"Professor, is Headmaster Dumbledore's achievement in alchemy very high? I saw that he won a gold medal in this field."

"Oh, this matter, in fact, you don't have to doubt it at all. Being able to be friends with the alchemist Nicolas Flamel,

It is enough to show Dumbledore's achievements in alchemy."

Nicolas Flamel.

Moon knew the name of another alchemy master.

"If the headmaster focuses on the field of alchemy, he may be able to achieve the same achievements as Nicolas Flamel, but he is also the best headmaster in Hogwarts."

Moon had long known that Dumbledore's reputation in the wizarding world was very loud, but this was the first time he had heard of the title of the best headmaster.

After leaving the herb greenhouse, Moon hadn't turned around when he saw Hermione waiting in front.

"What were you guys talking about strengthening protection?"

Seeing Moon appear, Hermione immediately stepped forward and asked.

"How did you know?"

Moon showed a suspicious look.

"Oh, I just wanted to go back and ask Professor Sprout if I could keep rosemary in the dormitory,

Then I heard your conversation."

"Okay, then you should have heard that Dumbledore said that students are not allowed to know."

Hearing that Hermione had accidentally stumbled upon it, Moon responded indifferently.

"But aren't you also a student?"

Hermione's curiosity is very strong, Moon had long known this.

But today he saw another amazing ability of this little witch.

After Hermione rigorously reasoned about what had happened, she quickly guessed everything Moon knew.

From the conversation about strengthening protection that she heard today, to Dumbledore's warning at the opening banquet, to the three-headed dog she encountered wandering the castle at night, and Harry encountering the injured Snape when he went to ask for books...:

After summarizing all these things, Hermione speculated that the headmaster and professors of Hogwarts were guarding a mysterious thing.

Arriving at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall, listening to Hermione's analysis, Moon had forgotten to eat.

He found that the little witch's speculation seemed very reasonable, and even some of them Moon himself did not know.

"Looking at your expression, I know that my reasoning is more than you know!"

After Hermione finished speaking, she showed a proud little expression.

Moon didn't know why this little witch had such a strong competitive spirit.

But in order to prevent the other party from being too happy, Moon pretended to be okay and ate normally.

Hermione's speculation was just a small episode in life.

For Moon, the most important thing is of course magical learning.

When the Charms class ended in the afternoon, Moon found Professor Flitwick and asked about the [Shield Charm] problem he had encountered in the past two days.
