Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 121 The Stingy Little Witch
When Moon returned again on Sunday night.

The Thorn was sailing on the rough sea.

As soon as Moon opened his eyes, he saw Zalan using his hands to stabilize the swaying rope bed.

"How is it? Is your journey of learning magic going well?"

"Of course, it's wonderful."

After a brief chat, Zalan went to bed, but Moon couldn't fall asleep.

My study journey at Hogwarts went smoothly.

But on the Xilin side, although far away from the war, the problem of how everyone will live in the future has not been solved.

This question troubled Moon until dawn.

The next morning, Zalan went out early and Moon was waiting in the room.

Today is the day when the little witch hiding in the cabin comes to make potions. It is also the first time that Moon witnesses the birth of potions in this world.

After having a simple breakfast brought by the crew, Chris, accompanied by Aunt Whitney, knocked on Moon's door.

"Are you going to stay in this room forever?"

Chris was slightly surprised when she saw Moon opening the door.

She was still worried that the crew might have some bad intentions, so she called Aunt Whitney up as well.

But she didn't expect that the person who had to stay in the room all the time was a little boy who was younger than her.

"Yes, please come in."

Moon smiled and made way for the door.

"Uh, okay."

Kelly walked in without any courtesy, while Aunt Whitney stood at the door.

"Since there won't be any danger, I'd better stay outside. I really don't want to see those things of yours."

Aunt Whitney looked at Moon and felt that the little boy would not cause any harm to Chris, so she stood by the wall outside the door.

"Okay, whatever."

Seeing this, Chris did not stop it.

After Moon closed the door, he sat back in his original seat, quietly waiting for the other party to start brewing the potion.

But the little witch was obviously not in a hurry.
After entering the house, Chris kept staring at the bread, fried fish and porridge that Moon had left over.

"Does the ship's doctor eat so well?"

When Moon saw Chris asking questions, his throat moved unconsciously.

A ship's doctor is a staff member on almost every ocean-going ship.

However, since real doctors could not stand drifting on the ship, this position was mostly held by sailors.

And Moon's meal was certainly not the ship's doctor's breakfast.

According to Gold, all of Moon's meals are of the same standard as the captain's.

White bread with fresh fried fish, oatmeal and the berries that Zalan had just finished eating.

It is almost impossible for Moon to eat such food in Xilin.

"Uh, if you don't mind."

"Of course!"

Before Moon finished speaking, the little witch Chris had already happily sat opposite Moon, picked up the bread and fried fish and started to enjoy them.

"You don't know, I've been eating nothing but black bread these past two days. I haven't seen any meat or vegetables."

Chris was eating and talking at the same time, while Moon sat beside her and observed her quietly.

The little witch had short gray hair that reached her ears, and there was a little trace of fire on the right end of her hair.

His eyes were large, with the same blue eyes as Moon's.

Her face was very white, but her hands were even whiter in comparison, as if they had been soaked in some potion.

He was about the same height as Moon, but noticeably slimmer.

"Okay, I'm going to start making the potion. Could you please take all these away?"

After quickly finishing the remaining breakfast, Chris unceremoniously gave orders to the "ship's doctor" Moon.

Hearing the little witch's instructing tone, Moon was stunned for a moment, then took the entire plate away.

"Little ship doctor, the salary on the ship is very high, isn't it? In fact, if you want to learn how to make potions, I can teach you for only 5 gold coins."

"Thank you, but no thanks." After hearing what the little witch said, Moon began to doubt whether she could really make the potion.

Ordinary people simply cannot make magic potions, even if a magician teaches them personally.

This is something almost every magician knows.

The little witch actually wanted to teach a ship's doctor how to make potions and charge five gold coins.

In Moon's opinion, either there was something wrong with the magic the other party had learned, or his living conditions were extremely poor.

Considering how the little witch had just eaten breakfast, Moon felt that the latter was more likely.

"Casual!"

After seeing Moon finish packing up his things, he just stood there quietly without moving.

Chrissy replied in a grouchy tone before pulling out various tools from her messenger bag.

Metal racks and trays, brass stirring rods, white carbon blocks, low crucibles, and four small bags of different powders.

Moon was very familiar with the tools for making potions.

Although the little witch's set of tools was similar, Moon was still attracted by two of them.

In Hogwarts' Potions class, first-year wizards use special alcohol lamps to heat crucibles.

There is also a valve installed on the outer wall of this alcohol lamp, which is specifically used to adjust the size of the flame.

But what the little witch prepared was actually charcoal blocks.

It was a kind of white charcoal that Moon had never seen before.

This made Moon take a second look out of curiosity.

Another thing that caught Moon's attention was the crucible.

The little witch's cauldron was not only much shorter than the one Moon had seen at Hogwarts.

And it seemed as if a layer of black paint was deliberately painted on the outside.

"Remember to keep quiet for a while. I don't have much material prepared, and I can't afford to fail at all."

Moon noticed that Chris deliberately turned the crucible while she was talking.

It was this little action of hers that allowed Moon to see that there was a small piece of the crucible that had fallen off, and there was a golden color inside.

【Golden Crucible! 】

After discovering the material of the crucible, Moon looked at the little witch with an even weirder expression.

Moon had actually seen a crucible made of this expensive material in the window of the crucible shop in Diagon Alley.

300 gold galleons, very expensive!

And the little witch in front of me eats black bread and uses a golden crucible.

This made Moon even more curious about the potion she was going to make next.

Moon had seen an introduction to the crucible in the Hogwarts library.

Different types of cauldrons and potions are compatible with each other.

The tin griddle is the one Hogwarts assigns to first years.

This type of crucible will not easily change the form of the potion, and the temperature requirement is not high, which can prevent the potion materials from being affected by improper brewing.

Some experienced pharmacists will choose to use brass crucibles.

Because it has faster thermal conductivity, it can cut the time of making potions in half, so there will be certain requirements for the magician's potion-making efficiency.

There are also silver crucibles, which are relatively expensive and are mainly used to refine potions related to the lunar cycle.

As for the more expensive gold crucible, it is generally used by potion masters because it is easy to clean and not easily corroded, and can ensure the purity and quality of the potion.

[Could this little witch be a potion master?]

After recalling the introductions to the different crucibles, an idea flashed through Moon's mind that he wasn't sure of.

However, the little witch's subsequent action completely dispelled Moon's idea.

Click!

Click!

The little witch actually used flint to light the white bone charcoal.

This isn't magical at all!
