HP: Wizards at Hogwarts

Back in the Dursleys' house, Harry never had any pocket money, and of course, he couldn't buy snacks.

But now that he has inherited the Potter family's fortune, he is a rich young master and is naturally going to spend it all.

Bibi-Flavored Beans, Super Lollipop, Chocolate Frog, Pumpkin Pie, Pot-Shaped Cake, Licorice Magic Plate...

Harry bought everything that was available on the train.

Ron blushed and stammered that he had brought sandwiches.

When Harry returned to the carriage with a huge pile of snacks, he found that Elaine had already sat up again and put away the cushions.

"Oh, you're awake?"

"Of course I should wake up!"

Elivin replied matter-of-factly, "If you guys eat in the carriage, how am I supposed to sleep when the smell dissipates?"

"Then why did you take away the cushions too?"

"To prevent you from spilling your trash on my cushions."

Harry nodded: "Now that you're awake, you can make room for me to put my snacks."

Elaine glanced at the pile of snacks in his arms, drew his wand with his right hand, and then pulled a coin from his pocket and threw it on the ground.

"Transform instantly!"

With a "clatter," the coins instantly transformed into a square table.

The table occupied the aisle between the two benches, with the tabletop level with my chest when I was sitting in the chair, and the bottom was openwork.

This move shocked the two of them once again.

"That's amazing!"

"It's a Transfiguration Charm!"

Having a table makes things much more convenient.

Harry spread all the snacks he had bought on the table and sat down opposite Elaine and next to Ron.

"Let me see what delicious food the wizarding world has! Let me try some!"

Elaine didn't stand on ceremony and started picking through the snacks.

In contrast, Ron seemed more rigid.

He really wanted to eat it, but he was too embarrassed to tell Harry. He just kept looking up at the food, taking out the sandwich Molly had prepared for him while complaining that she didn't remember that he didn't like canned corned beef.

The emotionally intelligent Harry immediately realized that Ron was a person who cared about his image, so he cleverly used the excuse of "exchanging food" to invite him to lunch.

Ron agreed.

When the two withdrew their affectionate gazes, they discovered that Elaine had already been feasting.

"You...you're not being polite at all."

This was the first time Ron had ever met someone like Elaine. Despite seemingly being impolite, he was somehow impossible to dislike.

Elaine raised his head nonchalantly: "If you've ever been homeless, you'll know that shame is nothing compared to filling your stomach."

Puff-!

Ron experienced the feeling of being stabbed in the heart once again.

woo woo woo...

I'm so damn stupid!

Ron felt so guilty he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

To make himself feel better, he started introducing the food to the two of them, from multi-flavored beans to chocolate frogs, explaining each item in great detail.

For every item he recommended, Elaine and Harry would eat it.

"Chocolate Frogs, are they really frogs?" Harry picked up a bag of Chocolate Frogs and examined them curiously.

"What are you thinking about?"

Elvin quickly replied, "This thing is definitely like 'wife cake'—there's no wife in it, or 'husband and wife lung slices'—there's no husband and wife in it!"

"Since it's called 'Chocolate Frog,' there won't be any chocolate inside."

"Oh... um??"

Seeing Harry so frightened that he threw the chocolate frog back onto the table, Ron quickly explained.

"That's not true at all!"

"The Chocolate Frog is just chocolate, but it's made to look like a frog and then magically made to move."

With Ron's assurance, Harry felt reassured and began eating the Chocolate Frog, while also taking out the picture card that came with it.

Elaine is all too familiar with the practice of putting character cards from a particular series into snacks to stimulate children's collecting instincts and increase snack sales.

Back in the day, wasn't the "Little Raccoon Water Margin Card" in instant noodles just a similar operation?

Perhaps they were even inspired by the book "Harry Potter".

The three of them received different cards.

The drawing card in Harry's hand is of Dumbledore.

Gray hair, a big beard, crescent-shaped glasses, a crooked long nose—exactly the same as the person in the picture.

"It's Dumbledore!"

"Don't tell me you don't know him; he's the greatest wizard of this century!"

Ron started showing off his knowledge, as if only in this way could he find some confidence in front of Elaine and Harry.

"Of course I know who Dumbledore is. I saw his name on the acceptance letter. So this is what he looks like."

Harry nodded, flipped over the drawing card, and read the rest of the text: "Albus Dumbledore, the current Headmaster of Hogwarts, is widely regarded as the greatest wizard of his time. Dumbledore's well-known contributions include: defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945; discovering the twelve uses of dragon's blood; and his fruitful work with his partner Nicolas Flamel in alchemy..."

Harry didn't understand any of Dumbledore's achievements, but that didn't stop him from thinking they were amazing.

The card Ron received was of a witch named "Mojana".

"It's Morgana again?!"

"I already have six of her cards, you can have these."

"You guys can start collecting now; maybe you'll be able to collect a set before graduation."

Then he introduced the "card collection event".

"This card set contains 88 characters, all of whom are great figures who have made great contributions to the history of magic."

"I've collected almost five hundred so far, I'm just missing Agrippa and Potolemi."

"...It sounds like it won't be easy to collect them all."

Harry was silent for a moment, but decided to accept Ron's offer.

Elaine asked curiously, "What are the benefits of collecting them all?"

Ron replied, "You can redeem a deluxe reward at the snack shop in Diagon Alley."

"It doesn't sound very interesting."

Elijah pouted and gave Harry the "Merlin" he was holding.

While the wizarding world's snacks were novel, they couldn't fill one's stomach. After tasting a few, Elaine lost interest and took out some pastries from Merck's leather bag.

That's right, it was packed from the Ritz Hotel.

Since he probably wouldn't go there again in the future, he took some extra with him before leaving.

This is not over yet!

Elaine reached into the Merck bag again and took out a super luxurious KFC + McDonald's combo meal!

"This is the food I prepared, please have a taste."

"Wow, it's fried chicken legs!!"

Ron's eyes widened immediately, and he gasped in surprise, his breathing becoming rapid.
