Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 86 Seamus's Thoughts

After returning to the common room, Moon saw Bengbeng, who was soaking wet.

"How did you end up like this?"

Moon was very curious because he had never been so embarrassed when going fishing before, especially now that the weather was getting colder.

Reaching out to catch the jumping Pengpeng, Moon quickly walked to the fireplace and started a fire for it.

"Chichi!" (I went into the water today!)
"Why, aren't you cold?"

Moon responded while quickly wiping the water stains off Bengbeng's body.

"Chichi~" (It's not cold anymore. I've made a new friend.)
"Are they friends from the Black Lake?"

"Chichi!" (Yes, it's huge!)

After hearing Bengbeng say it was particularly large, Moon recalled that when school started, he had seen a huge black shadow under the Black Lake from a small boat.

The dark shadow was larger than the entire fleet at that time.

【Could it be this? 】

Thinking of this, Moon looked again at Bongbong, who was slightly bigger than his hand.

"Don't tell me that when magical creatures make friends, they don't care about the height difference at all?"

Maybe because he had too much fun today, Bengbeng was so tired after taking a shower that he crawled into a tree hole to sleep.

When Moon was about to go to bed, Simo came over shyly.

"Moon, can I work on that hand warmer of yours together?"

Hearing Seamus' question, not only Moon was surprised, but Ron and Harry, who had not yet slept, also looked over.

Seeing that both Harry and Ron were shaking their heads with fear in their eyes, Moon knew that they had the same idea.

All of Seamus's spells seem to be related to fire magic.

His wand would occasionally emit sparks, and even ordinary spells would cause him to inexplicably emit fire.

Think about it, in the spell practice room, the terracotta warriors that could originally withstand several small evil curses were made to suffer terribly by Seamus's [Burning Curse].

Thinking of this, Moon felt a little embarrassed.

"Of course, but I already have some preliminary ideas for improving the spell, but it requires a lot of experiments."

"I can do experiments, even if it's not researching spells."

Ximo didn't care what he did. In his opinion, as long as he could do anything related to fire magic, he could do it.

"Okay, I'll tell you the details tomorrow."

"That `s a deal."

After getting Moon's assurance, Simo happily went to the bathroom.

"Wouldn't it be dangerous for Moon to do this?"

Neville poked his head out from under the quilt at this time and asked weakly.

"That's right. What if the experiment we're carrying explodes?"

Ron was also very worried, as he was well aware of the destructive power of Seamus's strange magic.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter."

Moon's assurance was of little use, as two little wizards in the dormitory dreamed of a bombing that night.

The next morning, Moon was still alone, curled up on the sofa in front of the fireplace.

Although it is still difficult to transform the "growth" spell, Moon has not given up on related research.

After he finished reading the two books on magical plants borrowed from the library, Hermione also came to the common room early.

"Morning!"

"Morning~"

Hermione responded weakly before casually taking out yesterday's jar and placing it on the wooden table.

After receiving the other party's signal, Moon picked it up and observed it carefully.

He discovered that the fire spell had actually been modified by Hermione.

The original [Fire-Making Spell] would produce a small red flame, or even a little spark, when cast.

But now the flame in the jar had turned a bright blue, and the temperature wasn't very high. "Did you lengthen the last half of the dee-oh in the Incedio spell?"

After two weeks of studying "The Secret of Spells: Methods of Spell Modification", Moon could now easily guess what changes had taken place in this basic spell.

Hermione looked at Moon in surprise, and after a long moment she let out a breath before answering.

"That's right, but this flame doesn't meet the requirements."

"Actually, building something isn't that simple. In addition to modifying the spell, wand gestures also need to be taken into consideration. I can help with that."

Hermione frowned when she heard Moon's words.

She was not used to working with her classmates because none of them read more books than she did.

But Moon's performance was so brilliant, especially since he saw through the research results she had been thinking about for a whole day at a glance.

"Well, I hope you have some good advice."

"Don't worry. By the way, can I ask you for another favor?"

"Tell me, as long as it's not copied homework."

"Of course not, I just want to find some books about Muggle plants."

After reading two books on magical plants borrowed from the library, Moon discovered that the authors of the books more or less mentioned some of the Muggle's strange ideas.

Especially since the food crops that Moon is currently studying are actually ordinary plants, he wants to see how the Muggles in this world view these plants.

"It's about plants, right? I remember I have a batch of old books at home that I've finished reading. If you don't mind, I can send them to you next week."

Hermione agreed very readily. She had a lot of old books at home. If Moon wanted to read them, she just had to send them from home.

"Of course I don't mind!"

Seeing Hermione agree, Moon picked up the jar on the table and looked at her again.

"In fact, we can discuss the next step in modifying the [Fire Spell] now."

Before breakfast, Moon and Hermione found the next step in the transformation spell.

In addition to lowering the temperature of the [Fire Spell], it is also necessary to ensure the burning time of the flame and the method of storing the flame.

After arriving at the Great Hall, Hermione pointed to the can of blueberry jam on the long table.

"It's this kind of canning bottle, very thick. I used it to store the [Fire-Making Spell]."

"Okay, each of you find two jars and give them to me to cast the spell."

After Moon finished speaking, several roommates began to collect different jars on the long table.

Except for the Slytherin table, which was deserted, twelve identical jam jars were found.

After letting Ron eat all the food inside, Moon began to cast spells one by one.

According to the method discussed with Hermione, there would be slight changes every time Moon cast a spell, but his roommates didn't notice at all.

But they didn't question it, they just did as they were told.

"Now each of us has two jars. We must carry them with us and observe and record the changes in the flames."

The fastest way Moon and Hermione came up with after discussing the most suitable "Fire-Making Spell" was to use multiple experiments to screen it out.

My roommates were also very cooperative, especially Seamus.

He could roughly see the difference in the spells Moon cast, but he couldn't do it himself.

"Don't worry, it's just a matter of watching when the little flame goes out. There will definitely be no problem."

Ron wiped the blue jam from the corner of his mouth and picked up the two jars very confidently.

Then Harry, Neville, Moon and Hermione each took a jar.

After putting the small jar into his pocket, Moon found that it was actually a semi-finished hand warmer.

Even when he walked outside the auditorium, he could feel a warmth.

But success doesn't seem to be so easy, especially when finding some unreliable little wizards to do something new.

　Regarding the Scarpin Apparition Charm in the previous chapter, I reread the original book and the Harry Potter Wiki website and decided to change it to Potions Analysis.

　　Because of the Scarpin Apparition Charm, only the ingredients of the potion can be obtained, but the efficacy, proportion, and more advanced magical energy composition are not involved.

　　I would like to explain this and hope that everyone can understand.
