Potion Ingredient Reprocessing

The aroma of roasted meat, various fried foods, fresh soup, and a slight fattiness wafted through the Great Hall.

The crisp sound of knives and forks clattering against plates was also constant.

However, in this atmosphere, there was a group of students who were so engrossed in looking at the parchment that they forgot to eat.

Even more surprisingly, Ron, who considers rice to be above all else, is also among them.

Hermione, standing nearby, couldn't help but marvel at this.

She turned to look at Ryan, her eyes filled with curiosity.

However, her question wasn't about why Ron was able to overcome his craving for food.

Instead, it was, "Our Hogwarts isn't that bad, is it?"

Moreover, we have more students than the other three schools combined.

Logically, shouldn't the class with more students have an advantage in this lesson?

Why is that?

Was Dumbledore deliberately not counting his participation points for this reason as well?

Ryan chewed on a piece of stewed beef, but said clearly, "You may not have noticed, but Hogwarts is the only one of the four schools that uses the sorting system."

The young wizards were divided according to their personalities and their own ideas.

Furthermore, each college emphasized the characteristics of the students being divided into colleges.

A large number of wizards with similar personalities and aspirations were gathered together.

This leads to their extreme values.

If it weren't for Potions, Herbology, and Care of Magical Creatures Class that brought together students from different schools with conflicting values.

I reckon the Hogwarts students will perform even worse in today's lesson.

As for whether Dumbledore did it on purpose?

I don't think he has the energy to focus on the outcome of a mere Triwizard Tournament. You're overthinking it.

Hermione gasped upon hearing Ryan's answer.

The knife and fork fell to the ground with a clatter. She leaned forward immediately and asked, "Does this—does this mean our school is worse?"

Ryan shook his head. "No, that won't happen."

The hallmarks of each house: Slytherin's ambition; Gryffindor's courage; Ravenclaw's Wisdom; Hufflepuff's loyalty.

They are undoubtedly good things.

Young wizards can also use this to quickly settle their minds, which may be confused due to their youth.

Being around similar people makes them more organized.

The curriculum arrangement also prevented them from going to extremes.

This allows them to discover the good qualities in people whose values are opposed to their own.

The power of a wizard's magic resides in his heart.

This is also beneficial for the young wizard's magical progress.

It allows them to better control their almost omnipotent magic.

Find a way of Magic Control that feels comfortable for you.

It's fair to say that Hogwarts' system is perfect.

However, Dumbledore's execution was somewhat lacking.

Slytherin became too extreme under his indulgence and Snape's favoritism.

In addition, Voldemort came from Slytherin.

This led to Slytherin being ostracized by almost all three houses.

This also prevents them from seeing the strengths they need to learn in Slytherin.

The students of Gryffindor were more reckless than courageous.

Ravenclaw are arrogant and look down on Hufflepuff, even when Hufflepuff has excellent students.

Therefore, this outcome is entirely their own fault.

Hermione nodded.

Meanwhile, Harry finally managed to persuade Ron to eat a few pies.

However, Ron hadn't even had a chance to eat a few bites.

Professor Polaqi, who looked like the dark-skinned Castelobruxo from Dumbledore, appeared before the group.

This was also the first time Harry had seen this person up close.

Harry hadn't paid much attention to him before this.

With Grindelwald, Dumbledore, and Professor Riddle around, why would they pay attention to a professor from abroad?

Even though he was Arborsage, Hagrid still gave those Seeds to Harry and his friends.

Looking at this person, Harry felt a strange sense of déjà vu.

His movements were surprisingly quick, and he was as spry as an old man.

But Harry inexplicably felt that he was like a slow-moving tree.

It is filled with an aura that makes it feel as if it is one with nature.

Moreover, his eyes are bright like those of a newborn child.

It is brimming with vigorous vitality.

"You guessed right, Professor Polaqi is indeed only a three-year-old man in terms of lifespan." A familiar voice rang out.

To pull Harry out of that obsessive feeling.

He turned his head quickly—it was Ryan!

He was sitting right across from him!

Hermione is next to her.

"The Arborsage?" Harry suddenly remembered what Hagrid had said about the original purpose of the Arborsage system—to share and obtain a life as long as trees.

"You could say that."

He completed the initial concept of this system by relying on the ability to awaken through magical transformation. Ryan nodded.

Harry wanted to ask something more.

But Ryan's gaze made him shut his mouth again.

In so many dream trials, he had long been tamed by Ryan and made obedient.

He knew that Ryan didn't want to be bothered anymore.

What he needs to do is remain silent and then roll away smoothly.

"My food hasn't disappeared!" Ron, who had been eating and drinking heartily and stuffing pies haphazardly into his arms because of Professor Polaqi's appearance, stared wide-eyed.

It's clearly seven o'clock now. The Great Hall layout should change when the new classes begin.

The food on the table should have all disappeared.

However, nothing changed.

Just like Professor Polaqi, who always had a faint smile on his face.

"I am Caster Polachi. Students who haven't finished eating can continue eating." He winked at Ron.

It's already very late today.

To avoid wasting your weekend, I've decided to get straight to the point.

Group Potion, simply put, are Potions that require multiple wizards to create together.

The Potions itself is also inseparable from various processed magical plant and animal slices, juices, and other products.

Group Potion are no exception.

However, the Potions ingredients required for Group Potion require an additional step.

That is, multiple wizards pre-processed it—using magic on the Potions ingredients that will not affect the Potions or the Potions ingredients.

In order to prevent the Potions ingredients from being affected by the mixed magic of multiple wizards.

The magic you use during processing must also be standardized.

Today we're going to deal with a very common Potions ingredient: Fluxweed.

Taking into account the presence of younger students and the characteristics of the materials themselves.

The Potions you will use today will all be the Lighting Charm.

We will hand the four blades of grass to the students in the leftmost and frontmost rows of the four schools.

Four black cloth bags with the school's name written on them were handed to the students in the far right and last row of the four colleges.

All you need to do is use the Lighting Charm to shine it on the grass for at least three seconds.

Then it is passed around the school—from left to right.

Until each student has treated it with the Lighting Charm.

The final student simply needs to put it in the black cloth bag and hand it in.

Okay, let's begin.

After that, a series of shouts rang out throughout the school, "Lumos!" xN times.

Ron then ate his food in peace.

The ball was passed from the Slytherin table to the Ravenclaw table, with a Hufflepuff in between.
