Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

And this is indeed the case.

Two days later, Professor Flitwick, who was most familiar with Ryan, came to visit.

The professor expressed concern for Ryan and subtly expressed his curiosity about Hufflepuff spells.

The professor, who was obsessed with spells, stammered, "Of course, you got the Hufflepuff treasure, so it definitely belongs to you, but..."

"I mean, I saw some traces in the Forbidden Forest... something like a weather spell..."

In his eyes, the characteristic curiosity of Ravenclaw could hardly be concealed.

"Oh, it is indeed an ancient spell... Yes, that's right! It's the one left in the Hufflepuff treasure. It's called 'Calling Thunder'."

Ryan was certainly not stingy and gave Professor Flitwick the relevant spell information on the spot.

After Professor Flitwick left happily, Ryan took the initiative to visit Professor McGonagall.

"Professor, I remember telling you before that I have a book on Transfiguration in my vault... I thought it might be useful to leave it with you so that I can consult you later."

When he handed the Transfiguration book to Professor McGonagall, he clearly saw the witch's smile.

After eagerly flipping through a few pages, her smile turned into exclamation: "The original Aniya human transformation technique... I thought it was lost."

Unable to conceal her excitement, she said, "Look at these pages...they're the standard format of ancient spellbook pages!"

"And these traces—Ryan, your book was written at least six hundred years ago, or even earlier... It's absolutely precious!"

"I will study it carefully... perhaps I can discover more secrets of ancient transfiguration."

No, in fact it was completed last night. It only needs weathering spells and folding spells, combined with some ancient paper to achieve a realistic effect.

Ryan grumbled to himself—the little prank tricks Gryffindor taught him were apparently very useful.

After Professor McGonagall, his reward to Professor Sprout was obviously selfish.

"Hufflepuff's nursery!?"

The witch, who was originally checking her watering equipment, was so excited that she almost fainted on the spot after hearing that there was a nursery left by Hufflepuff in the Forbidden Forest, which was full of countless ancient magical plants.

Of course, she eventually pulled through – unfortunately, her watering can didn't have the same luck.

Ryan saw it fall directly to the ground and smash into pieces.

But Professor Sprout obviously had no time to care about this small loss.

"What plants are there in the nursery? Ryan—would you...would you be willing to take me in?"

She asked in excited anticipation.

"Oh, of course."

Ryan nodded decisively.

In fact, after the Seed of Fertility was absorbed by him.

The plants in the nursery have lost their source of vitality.

Although he has authority over the Forbidden Forest, he can still keep an eye on their situation at any time and go back to replenish their vitality when necessary.

But obviously, Ryan felt it would be better to have a good enough herbalist to take care of them.

And it is obvious - Professor Sprout is the best choice!

The Head of Hufflepuff House looks after the Hufflepuff nursery for the Heir of Hufflepuff House... sounds reasonable, doesn't it?

After getting Ryan's confirmation, Professor Sprout no longer felt that he had worked in vain.

On the contrary, she was so excited that she looked like a little girl.

However, she obviously has not forgotten her duties.

"Christmas vacation is about to end, and there's been a lot going on at school lately—well... next month, I'll prepare some high-quality magical soil, and you can take me to the nursery next month!"

After agreeing on a time to go to the nursery, the professor gave Ryan a warm hug.

And after Professor Sprout.

The last dean, Professor Severus Snape, gave Ryan a headache.

Because he hadn't yet decided on a gift for Professor Snape.

But what he didn't expect was...

"Golden needle?"

When it was dinner time, Ryan saw the house-elf 'Golden Needle' at the door of the dormitory.

"Oh, Mr. Elias..."

Compared to before, Mr. House-Elf was obviously very excited.

Its body was shaking violently, its tone was up and down, and it could hardly speak coherently.

But Ryan didn't think it was strange.

In fact, he knew that Jinzhen's attitude was already calm at this time.

Because a few days ago, when he and Cedric quietly went to the kitchen for a midnight snack, the house-elves in the kitchen reacted even more violently!

Ryan could never forget the elves who were so excited that they fell unconscious on the spot, nor could he forget the seats covered with truffle cakes that night.

"Snape, Professor Snape asked me to tell you - he asked you to go to his office..."

At this moment, Jinzhen hesitated for a long time, but at least he explained the situation.

"...Feel sorry?"

But after hearing this, Ryan raised his eyebrows: "Are you talking about Professor Severus Snape? He asked me to go to his office!?"

He placed great emphasis on the word 'please'.

"Ah."

And the golden needle confirmed Ryan's words: "The professor did say that word, sir."

"Okay, okay..."

So, Ryan nodded solemnly.

"It looks like it's a big deal."

So soon, of course, he followed Jinzhen to the cellar, which he was already quite familiar with.

The Potions Office was as cold as ever, but Ryan noticed that its door was rarely locked.

So Ryan said goodbye to Jinzhen, opened the door and walked into the office.

Then he saw a scene that shocked him.

At this moment, all the stacked glass bottles in the potion office were covered by curtains, and an exquisite carpet appeared on the ground using magic.

The standard green flames and small candles in the office, which were jokingly called "bat fire" by the young wizards, also turned into normal red flames and exquisite candlesticks.

"Oh, something is wrong, something must be wrong..."

Ryan felt a chill in his heart.

He felt something was wrong, one hundred percent wrong!

And the next moment, a scene appeared that made his eyes widen even more.

Professor Severus Snape walked out from the corner of the Potions Office at this moment.

Ryan was shocked to find that he was not wearing the unchanging black wizard robe, but instead a set of exquisite white wizard dress.

Of course, the most important thing is...

His hair—no longer greasy, but incredibly fresh.

This made Ryan's expression even more horrified than when he saw Voldemort.

"Shit!"

So, he cursed angrily, suddenly pulled out his wand and pointed it at the creature in front of him that looked like Snape: "You are not Professor Snape - who are you!? Where did you hide him?"

After Ryan finished speaking, he clearly saw the muscles on Professor Snape's face twitch.

His lips twitched, a movement Ryan was familiar with—the movement of preparing to spit venom.

This made Ryan certain that the person in front of him was indeed Snape.

But to Ryan's surprise, Snape finally resisted the urge to show his venomous tongue.

"Please take a seat...Mr. Elias."

He said this in a dry voice.

"..."

Only then did Ryan notice that the armchair he had sat in once before was clearly back in the office.

Not only was it as clean as last time, but there was also a small table next to the armchair, on which were snacks and cakes.

This made Ryan feel even heavier in his heart.

Snape prepared dessert for him - a horrible fact that made him suspect that he might have been under the legendary wizard's hallucinogenic spell.

Or worse - maybe everything he had experienced in the past was just a dream, because dreams are more real than what is happening right in front of him!

He didn't sit down in that chair.

He also believed that no young wizard in the entire Hogwarts would dare to sit on that chair.

Ryan took a few steps back.

"Professor, please be normal."

He said sincerely, "If I have made any mistakes, you can just point them out directly... There is no need to make such a great sacrifice."

Chapter 106: The one you want to resurrect is... Lily Potter!? (2.3K, second update)

"Mr. Elias..."

After hearing Ryan's words, Snape almost gritted his teeth: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

This was what Ryan found most terrifying—even at this point, Snape could still resist scolding him!
