Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 178 Hermione's Method

That was when Moon and the giant squid were training the spell.

After finishing all his work for the day, Snape finally had enough time to start analyzing the two newly acquired potion ingredients.

Due to his rigorous attitude towards potions, Snape did not use these two materials directly to make potions after coming into contact with them.

After going through a complete set of analysis processes, Snape had a deeper understanding of the properties of the two potion materials.

"The swim bladder of this strange fish can not only be used to stop bleeding, but also to make other wound medicines. It may also be used in sedative potions."

"The conch shell has very simple potion properties, but it's also milder. Using it to refine potions for strengthening the body should eliminate many adverse reactions."

As a potion master, Snape possesses knowledge of potions far beyond that of ordinary people.

After analyzing the two materials, hundreds of suitable potion recipes flashed through his mind.

"These high-level potions seem to be able to be improved now, but the materials are really too scarce."

Although Moon gave ten ounces of each material, it was far from enough for Snape.

"You can improve the most important potion first, and then find a way to ask that little wizard for the rest."

"Maybe I can find a way to build a boat, and maybe I can find these materials."

After returning from Black Lake, Moon took his class notes and went to the school clinic on the second floor.

Because many people in the castle have caught colds recently, all of the dozen or so beds in the school infirmary are occupied.

Madam Pomfrey has been very busy these days. When she saw Moon coming, she just asked him to wear a mask and went to prepare the healing potion.

"This potion tastes terrible."

Hermione had just finished a large glass of refreshing potion from Madam Pomfrey.

This is a common potion that can cure colds. After drinking it, steam will continue to come out of the patient's ears.

This reminded Moon of the Hogwarts Express.

The white steam was almost identical to the one coming out of Hermione's ears.

"Haven't you seen enough yet? I'm already pissed off by this awful cold. Do you know how much homework I've missed?"

For Hermione, homework always comes first.

"Actually, there's no need to be so anxious. Haven't you already finished all the first-year courses?"

"Of course, but knowledge is always new, and my head is still foggy and I can't remember anything from the book."

Moon had long been aware of Hermione's learning progress, so he was not surprised at all to hear Hermione say this.

Even though there were three thick stacks of books on the table next to Hermione's bed.

After taking out today's herbal medicine class notes from his bag, Moon handed them directly to the other party.

"You probably won't need the notes for Defense Against the Dark Arts, so this is just the content from Herbology."

"I knew you would be the one who remembered the most details!"

Hermione smiled happily as she watched Moon write on about ten inches of parchment.

The reason she rejected Lavender's course notes was because she wanted the most detailed information.

Among all the classmates, only Moon could do this.

"Today's Herbology class is about nettles. It's mostly practical, but I've written down every step of the process from memory. I hope you'll find it useful."

Moon patiently explained to Hermione.

"Don't worry, I can finish copying it tonight and return the notebook to you tomorrow morning."

After Hermione finished flipping through the notebook, she looked at Moon with envy.

"To be honest, I really envy you for having such a good memory."

"In fact, it's not all good to have it, because there are some things that you can't forget even if you want to."

After hearing Moon's Versailles-like remarks, Hermione felt depressed and didn't want to talk.

Moon didn't notice the subtle change in Hermione's expression.

He just looked at a sachet on the bedside table after the little witch talked about memory ability again.

This was in last week's Herbology class. After learning that rosemary can enhance memory, Hermione made a rosemary sachet and wore it on her body.

According to Hermione herself, the effect of this sachet is very good.

The reason why Moon is interested in sachets is because he wants to find a way to cover up body odor, which is related to sachets.

"How did you make this sachet? It seems to be more breathable."

In fact, Moon has seen many sachets, but Hermione's is indeed special.

Ever since the little witch put it on, she has been smelling of rosemary flowers, which is very pleasant. "Oh, it's mainly because of the fabric."

According to Hermione's explanation, Moon knew that the fabric for making the sachet came from a private tailor shop in London that specialized in custom-made clothes.

"I didn't like the dress, so I tore it apart, and then I got this sachet."

Hermione was also very proud of her own creation. She felt that with this sachet, her learning speed had increased a lot.

"Oh, if you can, could you make one for me?"

"What? You need rosemary too?"

Hermione asked curiously.

"No, I want to pack a flower petal from the Herbal Club."

Moon takes care of all 32 plant species in the Herb Club.

These plants bloom and bear fruit every year, and new branches and shoots grow.

If some of the seniors who have left need these herbal materials, Professor Sprout will mail them to them.

However, some seniors left the herbs in the club after graduation and stopped asking about them.

The material that Moon wanted to use to make the sachet this time was precisely this lonely plant.

Traceless flower.

Professor Sprout explained that this was the only Slytherin left here after joining the Herbology Club.

Regulus Black.

Since graduation, this senior seemed to have forgotten about the plant and has not sent a single letter.

"Traceless Flower? Is this some kind of magical plant?"

When Hermione asked, she had already taken out her quill and notebook from the small bag next to her.

She knew that Moon knew more about this, so every time Moon mentioned a new herbal plant name, she would write it down to fill her own knowledge base.

"Yes, this flower is very special. When crushed, it releases a magical substance that can inactivate the odor in the air, thereby achieving the purpose of eliminating and masking the smell."

Moon repeated Professor Sprout's words.

"It's amazing, you can use it to make fragrance or essential oils."

After Hermione wrote down the content, she thought of the uses of this magical plant.

"Yes, that senior thought so too."

The reason why Traceless Flower was allowed to join the Prairie Club by Professor Sprout.

It was because Regulus discovered that this plant could cover up the musty smell in some old houses and the unpleasant odor on some wizards.

Moon didn't have any special smell, but he had to guard against the enemy's keen sense of smell after transformation.

"Okay, I'll make you a new sachet in the next two days."

After Moon explained the properties of the entire herb, Hermione closed the notebook with satisfaction.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome. Besides, you've already paid."

Hermione said as she patted the content she had just recorded in her hands.

In the eyes of this little witch, knowledge is more valuable than anything else.

"Okay, then you should go to bed early."

After Hermione agreed, Moon was about to leave the school infirmary.

But at this time, Madam Pomfrey, the school doctor who was already busy, called him.

"Mr. Scarlett, I'm completely overwhelmed. Could you please go find Professor Snape and ask when the new stimulant will be delivered?"

"Okay, ma'am."

Moon would not refuse the school doctor's request.

This lady has taken good care of Moon since he came to the spell classroom for training.

As a temporary neighbor, she would often observe from the window of the spell classroom to prevent Moon from getting hurt while training in spells.

After carefully asking Madam Pomfrey if she had any other requests, Moon came to the basement of the castle.

This was also his first time going to Snape's office.

Boom~boom~
"Professor, are you there?"
