Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

So, he finally chose to keep the letter quietly.

"Quirinus Quirrell..."

He whispered the name.

"On Monday and Friday, you guys stay home—I'll be back soon."

Then he stood up and walked out of the dormitory.

Soon, he arrived at the eighth floor of the castle.

"Dragon scum!"

Ryan said to a fat witch singing in the painting, "By the way, Fat Lady—your voice in the third paragraph is two notes higher."

"Oh, thank you for the reminder."

Upon hearing this, the Fat Lady stopped showing off her singing voice.

She looked at Ryan with some confusion as she curiously walked towards the door to the Gryffindor common room.

"Kid, I don't think I've seen you before—Oh, I see, you're the special student!?"

"I've heard the young wizards talk about you, but you've never been to the common room..."

Her mumbling made Ryan feel a little embarrassed.

Because as the Fat Lady said - although Ryan was nominally a student shared by the four colleges, Dumbledore did give him the authority to enter the common rooms of the four colleges and wear the uniforms of the four colleges.

But since entering the castle, Ryan has never been to the common room once - oh... except for the Slytherin common room. After all, Ryan once mingled with the Slytherin little wizards there.

So at this moment, it was Ryan's first time in the Gryffindor common room.

He passed through the passage guarded by the Fat Lady and arrived at the Gryffindor tower.

The interior of the tower is filled with eye-catching, vibrant colors.

Red and gold are the main colors here.

The walls were covered with tapestries embroidered with swords, shields or magical creatures, and the floor was covered with a thick lion-patterned carpet.

Elegant and exquisite armchairs and wooden round tables are dotted in the hall, and the sunlight shining through the arched glass windows dyes the red curtains golden red.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing in the entire common room is the huge fireplace.

The fireplace took up almost the entire wall, and a flame was burning in it - according to the little wizards of Gryffindor, the flame would never go out in all seasons.

Ryan noticed an ancient rune engraved on the top of the fireplace.

Ryan recognized the rune, its meaning was [brave]!

But it was obvious that the two red-haired little wizards gathered in front of the fireplace did not match this rune.

"Merlin's parchment—Ryan's here. Today is Friday, and he wants to go exercise...Fred! I told you we should hide!"

"Stop talking, George, and run!"

As soon as they saw Ryan, Fred and George each let out a strange cry.

The two brothers ignored the astonished expressions of the other young wizards around them and fled like birds and beasts on the spot.

Only Ryan was left with a frown on his face, looking at the two people who were in a panic.

"great."

He muttered and took out his wand: "Petrification!"

Chapter 74: Tricking the Professor? Brother...this will cost extra! (Available on 3/10, please pre-order now!)

After saying to the other young wizards in Gryffindor in a friendly manner, "Everyone, enjoy your afternoon tea. This is a personal grudge."

Ryan walked out of the Gryffindor common room with two stones floating beside him.

Under the horrified eyes of the twins, Ryan walked into the Room of Requirement.

"The curse stops immediately."

As the petrification curse was lifted, the twins' cries of grief echoed in the Room of Requirement.

"Here's the Marauder's Map—I don't want to do dumbbell exercises! Put it away! Put it away!"

"I don't want to run! I don't want to do squats... I can't breathe!"

The fact that the Gemini, who are usually fearless, can show such an attitude shows that Ryan's training intensity is really strong.

"You're not allowed to exercise today... And I told you this is special training for dueling, it's good for you - I see you didn't listen at all."

Ryan frowned helplessly.

Then, looking at the twins who still didn't believe him, he frowned and said, "Well, since you don't believe me... then let's add three more sets to today's training!"

"Lord Ryan, we were wrong!"*2

So Gemini was immediately convinced.

However, they also realized at this time that Ryan really didn't catch them for training: "If you have anything, just tell me, the Gemini Hotline is happy to serve you!"

"...Where did you learn this?"

"From our Father!"

The twins looked at each other, grinned, and high-fived each other. "He's obsessed with Muggle items and even secretly called the Muggle hotline before!"

This made Ryan sigh at the difference between the Weasley family and other pure-blood families.

But then he turned the conversation to the main topic: "I heard that you once planned to play a prank on Professor Quirrell and find out where the smell on his body came from?"

After hearing this question, Gemini looked at each other, and then asked doubtfully: "Who told you that?" *2

"Don't ask so many questions!"

Ryan waved his hand and said, "Let me ask you, are you still going to continue with this plan?"

"...I don't plan to continue."*2

The twins shook their heads.

"It's a creative prank on the professor though."

Fred winked.

"But the risks are too great—you'd get locked up, and it's not worth it!"

George shook his head.

Although they are the self-proclaimed kings of mischief at Hogwarts, they are known for being 'evil-doers'.

But they also know the value for money.

Playing a prank on a professor almost guaranteed detention.

The price-performance ratio is indeed a bit low.

But after hearing this, Ryan grinned.

"You told me before that you wanted to develop some prank products besides Zonko's Joke Shop?"

He suddenly changed the subject.

"Of course!"

Speaking of this, Gemini is no longer sleepy.

Their eyes gleamed with fire: "Mr. Zuko is certainly a master of mischief."

"Dung eggs, burp candy, biting teacups, wolf-tooth flying saucers..."

They know them like the back of their hand: "They are all classic prank props, destined to go down in the history books of pranks."

"But in the past two years, he's clearly fallen into a rut – there's been very little innovation, and his latest specially crafted fake wand is disappointing... it's just a rehash of the same old stuff!"

"We'll create even better prank products!"

George's tone was passionate.

Those who didn't know might have thought he was discussing how to defeat the Dark Lord head-on.

"But..."

But Ryan smiled and said, "You don't have money to develop new products, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw George and Fred wilting like eggplants hit by frost.

"Yes."

George muttered.

"Galon... the biggest obstacle before us."

Fred sighed.

Yes - although they have outstanding creativity and endless ideas, they also have unlimited enthusiasm.

But as a member of the Weasley family, who are always known for their poverty, even their home is called 'The Burrow'.

To them, money is like Snape's shampoo, if you don't have it, you don't have it!

But it was at this time...

"Buzz!"

Golden light caught George and Fred's eyes—it was the light belonging to Garlon.

Ryan held a Galleon in his hand.

"Brother, what are you doing? We don't want your money..."

Seeing this scene, George spoke righteously.

In fact, both Geminis vaguely know that Ryan should be very rich.

Because he had already demonstrated the value of his vault in the Potions class, the twins didn't know the price of the ancient potion materials, but they expected it would definitely not be cheap!

But even so, they never thought of asking Ryan for money.

"Of course, this money won't be given to you for free."
