Jealousy

The bottles were only the size of a thumb, and inside was a golden potion, the color of which was dazzling and mesmerizing, like molten gold.

After Kyle examined the bottle carefully, he confirmed that it did indeed contain Felix Felicis.

Felix Felicis, also known as the Felix Felicis, is arguably the most complex Potions in the Wizarding World, bar none.

The precious Potions ingredients are secondary; the most important thing is that it takes as long as half a year to brew, and if you are not careful during this time, you have to start all over again.

Each small bottle is incredibly expensive.

"Where did this come from?" Kyle asked, turning his head.

"It's a Christmas present from Potions Class Professor Snape," Kanna said, puzzled. "What's wrong? Don't you have one?"

Upon hearing this, Kyle felt a pang of sadness.

Forget about Felix Felicis, Snape didn't even give him an empty bottle.

"Um..." Kyle, fighting back the acid reflux rising in his stomach, asked with a complicated expression, "Did you know Professor Snape before?"

Kanna first shook her head, then nodded. "I've heard my mother mention this name before, but I've never seen him before coming to Hogwarts."

Kyle glanced at Kanna thoughtfully.

Prince?

When Snape first gave Kanna points, Kyle felt something was off, but at the time he thought they were just acquaintances and didn't think much of it.

But now it seems he was wrong.

If they were merely acquaintances, even close friends, Snape would never have given Felix Felicis as a gift to Kanna.

Malfoy never received this treatment.

This shows that he definitely has a deep connection with the surname Prince.

Kyle for a moment, and then suddenly felt that he had heard this surname somewhere before; it sounded familiar, but he couldn't quite place it.

The only university he could think of was Princeton University.

But this has absolutely nothing to do with the Wizarding World.

Kyle thought for a long time, and finally decided to give up. He held the glass bottle and asked, "Do you know what this is?"

"Cold medicine?" Kanna asked uncertainly.

Kyle shook his head, and without keeping him in suspense, said directly, "No, it's Felix Felicis."

"... Pfft... Kyle, are you still asleep?"

For some reason, Kanna suddenly burst out laughing, "This Potions is very similar to Felix Felicis, but I don't know Professor Snape. Why would he give me something so precious? It's impossible."

"Why not?" Kyle gently shook the bottle. "Is there any other liquid gold Potions besides Felix Felicis?"

Kanna shook her head again. "Professor Snape is a master of Potions. Changing the color of Potions shouldn't be difficult for him."

"Maybe this is a Christmas surprise he prepared for everyone; it actually contains cold medicine."

Kyle tried to explain a few more times, but Kanna always managed to find a reason to refute him, and in the end even Kyle started to lose confidence.

Kyle could understand Kanna's reaction.

Honestly, if this bottle had appeared in his own gift, he wouldn't have believed it was Felix Felicis either.

He would only think that this was a special poison brewed by Snape, made to look like Felix Felicis just to trick him into drinking it.

At that time, Kanna probably firmly believed it was Felix Felicis and kept trying to come up with reasons to refute it.

It's the same principle.

So Kyle didn't say anything more.

Actually, it's quite simple to determine, or rather, to convince Kanna that the bottle actually contains Felix Felicis, just to figure out the relationship between the surnames Snape and Prince.

However, it's best if he keeps the bottle safe until then.

Kanna often loses things, so this bottle might be her turn to lose it someday.

If what's inside really is Felix Felicis, it will be too late to regret it then.

He glanced at Kanna and said, "Could I leave this bottle here for now?"

Kanna clapped her hands dismissively and said, "I'll give it to you if you want."

Kyle quickly refused, saying, "Forget about giving it to me, I'm afraid you'll regret it and cry your eyes out."

Just kidding, he's not the kind of person who would take advantage of someone's misfortune. At most, he's just a tiny bit less principled than others.

"I won't cry..." Kanna seemed very dissatisfied with Kyle's wording, wrinkled her nose and said decisively, "Since I said I would give it to you, I definitely won't regret it. Even if you give it back to me, I won't take it."

Kyle shrugged noncommittally.

It's just that he doesn't have anything to record right now, otherwise he would definitely have recorded everything Kanna just said.

Then, at some appropriate time, play it on a loop all day long in the common room.

After leaving the common room, Kyle went to the library and stayed there until noon.

The Christmas feast was lavish: a hundred plump roast turkeys, mountains of roast meat and potatoes, large platters of sausages and peas with butter, and for some reason, Kyle even saw scones.

Every few steps past the dining table, you can see piles of wizard-themed firecrackers, which, like Christmas trees, are indispensable for Christmas.

Kyle picked up a colorful firecracker packet in front of him and yanked off the string.

With a deafening roar, a woman's hat adorned with lace and tassels slowly descended from mid-air and landed in front of Kyle.

Kyle glanced around, then discreetly put the hat into his Mokeskin Pouch.

Professor Snape's Christmas present for next year, isn't that it?

Kyle then drew several more colorful firecracker packets.

The explosive roar was like a firecracker version of a firecracker, but without the risk of getting blown up. It was incredibly fun to play with.

By the time the banquet began, the things next to Kyle had almost formed a small mountain.

There are six hats of various shapes for men and women, two sets of Wizard's Chess, three rubber wands, several strange little props... and a Cockroach Cluster (?).

To be honest, Kyle wasn't sure if the thing was real, so he just put it in a transparent box and kept it far away from him.

The House-elf skills were as reliable as ever. Kyle looked at the huge turkey, cut off a piece of chicken leg meat, and then made a pizza with flatbread, meat sauce, and sausage.

After the turkey comes the bright red Christmas pudding, which also has a little surprise: Kanna's pudding contains a Silver Sickle.

Kyle cut into the pudding in front of him with some anticipation, a hint of yellow peeking out...

Kyle then put down his knife.

Don't cut it any further, or the mango sauce will leak out.
