Chapter 211: Elixir of Blessings
Halloween feasts are always great, everyone loves the holiday, not only will there be a half-day holiday, Hogwarts will prepare entertainment every year, and there will be a rich feast in the evening, just think about the sumptuous dishes prepared by those house-elves, and you can't help but drool.
At least, before Potter the Savior came to Hogwarts.
Since it had been raining, Albert and his family spent an afternoon playing wizarding cards in the common room. Now there are many people in the school who know about this card game, and there are many onlookers who watch them play cards, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes lively.
Especially after Albert's gradual optimization, the cards used are no longer as rough as before. Nowadays, the number of cards has become the main reason for restricting the promotion of wizard cards, and some students who are interested in wizard cards will not get the deck at all. That's the big question that came up at the last gathering of the Wizards Card Club, which already has two dozen members, including Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
As for Slytherin, there are no students yet, and they are not very welcome, let alone willing to play with them.
In the evening, Albert and Fred went downstairs to the dining room to attend the Halloween feast.
The Halloween dinner went the same way as usual, with Professor Dumbledore standing up and saying a few short words, and he smiled and said to all his classmates, "Happy Halloween, and ...... Eat it!"
As always, the neat speech won everyone's applause and applause.
"Yes, yes!"
Albert applauded along with the others, he thought Dumbledore was so cute and understanding, and the empty plates were quickly filled with food by the house-elves.
Albert, Fred, George and Lee Jordan put their favorite foods on their plates.
"I love this steak. Lee Jordan stuffed a large piece of beef in his mouth and slurred his speech.
"Bat...... head. Fred, who was eating turkey legs, said suddenly.
Lee Jordan looked up almost reflexively, but there was nothing on his head, and then he realized that he had been tricked by this guy, and turned his head angrily to look at Fred, who was pretending to be buried in eating, who pretended not to know anything.
Albert was eating a piece of tonkatsu, which tasted pretty good.
"Look at that ......" George touched Albert's arm with his elbow and nodded his head at a plate of Albert's familiar potato and egg pancakes.
"This stuff tastes good. Shanna was eating a potato and egg pancake, and after meeting the two of them's eyes, she asked suspiciously, "Is there a problem?"
"That was the last time Albert taught the house-elves to cook. George explained with a wink at Shanna.
"I didn't expect you to have a lot of research on food. Before Shanna's words were finished, they heard the sound of forks falling on the plate next to them, and when they looked over, they saw Li Jordan raise his hand and point in the direction of the stage, and the Hogwarts choir appeared, but it was dressed in that dress, and it looked quite joyful.
No way, the students of each house wore clothes that symbolized their respective houses, and Albert wanted to laugh at the sight of Slytherin's green robes and green peaked hat.
Actually, an ordinary wizard robe is not bad, but of course the impact on students will not be so great.
The Hogwarts choir was still very good, at least on Halloween, when there was no event program, and hearing their high-pitched singing, combined with the toad in their hands, actually made Albert feel that the chorus was surprisingly good.
The feast lasted for a long time, until the remaining food on the plates was gone, and the golden plates returned to their original spotless condition, and the Halloween dinner ended with Dumbledore's announcement.
"I want to sleep when I'm full!" Albert yawned, he was too full, and ate a large piece of chocolate cake for dessert.
"I'm going on a night tour and stop by Snape's private material warehouse. Albert suddenly announced this to his roommates, and suddenly a lightning bolt struck the window, and the thunder exploded and the glass window clicked.
"Isn't this a bit rushed?" Fred frowned slightly. They're not ready, and it's not quite Albert's character.
"Don't worry, I'm going to drink some of this to make sure the plan is foolproof. Albert smiled and took out the elixir he had obtained last time, shook it in front of the three of them, and comforted him, "I will definitely succeed with the elixir." ”
"Wow, you're willing to use a magic potion. ”
The three of them were all surprised, knowing that the elixir was a good thing that money could not buy, and as a guarantee, the worries in their hearts were put down at once.
"Wouldn't it be a bit of a waste. Lee Jordan muttered.
"It doesn't take much, just a small bite, and three or four hours of luck will be enough!" Albert said, "Now, rest first, and get up again in the middle of the night." ”
Finally, Albert was woken up in a blur, and he glanced at his pocket watch, and it was one o'clock in the morning.
After Albert washed his face and made himself completely sober, he held up the vial containing the elixir and took a sip.
"How does it feel?" asked George in a whisper.
Albert didn't answer, closing his eyes to feel the change brought about by the elixir.
An exhilarating sensation flowed through his body, as if the possibilities were endless, and Albert felt that he could do anything, all with ease.
"It's wonderful, it's wonderful. Albert said confidently, "Tonight, I'll just go by myself." ”
"What?" Fred, George, and Lee Jordan were taken aback, and couldn't help but complain, "You weren't going to take us with you, and you couldn't have fun together." ”
"No, I'll go myself. "I feel like I'd better do things according to my instincts and everything will work out." ”
"Are you sure you don't need our help?" Fred asked, stunned.
"Yes, trust me, I know what I'm doing. Albert raised his wand and used the Illusion Charm on himself, and the spell was cast with such a perfect process, even a Hogwarts professor might not be able to detect him.
"It was perfect. Albert grunted, adding a super buff to himself, it was a great feeling.
"Is this really a elixir?" said George, holding the bottle up in front of him and facing his companion. They were not at ease with Albert's state, they had never seen Albert so arrogant as he was now.
In particular, Albert's laughter made the three of them a little worried.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Albert confidently walked towards the door, and said again before leaving. "After an hour, go down and open the door for me. ”
Stealth, Albert walked downstairs and slipped out of the entrance to the common room under the cover of the Fred trio.
