Shifflett Is Discovered

This is in the room that belongs to her.

The layout of the room seems to have changed.

When she pushed open the door, the first thing that caught her eye was a large number of baby and toddler products.

The room was filled with green plants and flowers.

The windows were wide open, but there was no stench from the Sewage River.

The air was incredibly fresh, like a garden after a rainstorm.

She turned to look at the only place that hadn't changed: the Gryffindor four-poster bed that she and Snape had built together, a one-to-one replica.

Above, a woman with a protruding belly is lying on her side.

The woman opened her eyes.

"I remember, Snape forbids entry here."

"I am Shifflett now."

"The child is—" Lily was about to ask further, but the resonance from their bloodline made her immediately understand the answer.

"The Potions you've been paying special attention to while preparing your lessons these past few days."

"I preserved your hair," Shifflett explained.

Lily understood immediately.

"Why didn't you go through the proper channels? I mean," Lily's face was full of frustration and embarrassment.

"Normal means?"

At that time, I think I was crazy.

When I learned that you were about to be resurrected.

At the time, I thought this was the only way to bring you and me closer.

"How much longer does that child have?"

"To be precise, it will be another month."

"I remember you discovered this formula shortly after the start of the school year in September. It's only April now, so it's only been 7 months at most." Lily's face turned pale, and she unconsciously sat down on the edge of the bed and took the woman's hand. "Is this child going to be premature?"

Is this a side effect of using hair?

The woman shook her head. "You can take a look at this. With your level of understanding, you should be able to understand it at a glance."

As soon as she finished speaking, the bedside table opened automatically, and a bottle of amber liquid slowly flew into Lily's hand.

"This color, this vibrant life force—it's undoubtedly the most potent tonic." A hazy mist rose in Lily's green eyes.

The formless and intangible magic transformed into an invisible force that penetrated the essence of matter and magic, and entangled vision. "Unicorn Blood, Bifora, Yew Tree... and the roots of the Dragon Blood Tree."

I haven't seen the other materials, but they are remarkable in terms of the complex and profound magic they contain.

"If I'm not mistaken, this potion can even extend lifespan; using it solely as a tonic is far too extravagant." Lily breathed a sigh of relief.

If she wasn't mistaken, the medicine's effects were all used to accelerate the child's growth and maintain the mother's health without any side effects.

But then she became suspicious again, "Did you pack up the treasury of some Pure-blood families?"

As for the Potions Class professor's salary, although it's generous, even if you save money from the day you start,

They probably can't even get the ingredients for this Potions.

Many of the materials inside were ones I had never even seen before, including the Dragon Blood Tree, which is priceless.

Not to mention its most expensive part, the root.

"I took a job."

It is related to a certain reclusive Pure-blood families.

I participated in the construction of the world's largest and most complete Herb Garden.

No, it's more like a museum.

However, every piece of the collection inside is intended to be put into use.

Moreover, under the influence of the massive alchemical array that combines Potions and Herbology, after one copy of the collection is consumed, it will automatically draw power from the magical magnetic field to create another copy.

"It's almost as if it came from nothing!" the woman exclaimed.

Even now, she can't forget the grandeur and beauty of that Herb Garden.

It is a sacred temple that every Potions Master and Herbology would yearn to see in its entirety, even if it meant sacrificing their entire lifespan.

"Can I go?" Lily, who could be considered half Potions, asked with longing in her eyes.

Listening to Shifflett's description, she even for a moment forgot about the child she was related to by blood.

"No." Snape shook his head. "That family is very secretive. I have lost my memory of that family."

Snape wasn't lying about that.

Although he got the job of managing the Herb Garden from Ryan.

But he himself did not remember how to get to the Herb Garden or that he had this job until Ryan or the Lord God issued the summons.

He only thought of himself as a servant of the great Kronos.

It was just a routine task to write down His instructions.

He didn't even know that the castle and the Herb Garden belonged to the Smith Family —the family of Ryan, the incarnation of Kronos in his eyes.

He assumed they were a clan secretly serving his master.

"Oh, I see. So what's the story with you at the school?"

Is it also from that family?

I'm pretty sure it's you. The Patronus doesn't lie. Lily's eyes flickered, and she thought of a new question.

"That was me too. It was indeed related to that family. It was a device. It could create additional bodies."

"Extra? I'm afraid it's more than that." Lily smiled. "Your new body, if you don't look at your hair, is just like your younger self—strong and muscular, with a pale complexion."

And now, you are thin and pale.

"Ahem. You're right."

The body isn't entirely influenced by the original physical form during the shaping process. It can be adjusted. The woman was a little embarrassed.

She glanced at the fading sunlight streaming through the window and added, "It's getting late. I'm going to sleep for a while."

It's obvious that 'she' is now telling you to leave.

"Oh, by the way, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Lily asked casually.

"Aren't you going to leave?" The woman's voice was a little dry, and her upper body unconsciously lifted off the bed.

"Lie down! Have you forgotten your current state?" Lily said in an unquestionable tone.

"No need, I still have my own body. He can take care of me."

"No, I can take care of myself." A blush rose on the woman's sallow face.

"It's different. I have this responsibility." Lily put her hand on the woman's shoulder, looking down at 'her'.

"I don't know," the woman replied in a barely audible voice.

"Um?"

"I said I didn't know what to eat."

"Then I'll take care of it! You won't complain about how bad my cooking is, like Harry did," Lily squinted.

It seems as if a woman is cursed for uttering a single wrong word.

"I'm not like Harry. I couldn't ask for more! If only it could last forever."

"Always?" Lily raised an eyebrow.

"Yes," the woman said, no longer defiant, "she straightened her neck, "I hope I can always eat your cooking."

"I'm going to cook!" Lily abruptly turned her head, her back to the woman. "You can have pan-fried pork chops, chickpeas, and mashed potatoes tonight. I'm going to buy groceries!"

Then, he suddenly rushed out of the room.

Only the thumping sound of people going downstairs remained.

"Tch! Still the same old three things." The woman's tone was a mix of mockery and nostalgia.

Meanwhile, she prayed silently, "Master, is everything going as you expected?"

"Does someone like me deserve Lily's favor?"

Ryan, who was basking in the sun with Kate in his arms, opened his eyes.
