Chapter 345: Fairy Tale Biscuits

The shorthand quill wrote down the conjectures about the "Bowtruckle" ritual in the notebook, and Sean also walked through the outskirts of the castle in the night.

Taking advantage of the fact that the practice had just been completed, he needed to record those unique intuitions.

Thus, a pair of deep and calm green pupils flashed above the dungeon.

Sean's notebook was filled with plans for Transfiguration, spells, and Black Magic practice. The Hogwarts reflected in the magic mirror was the scene he had recalled most recently.

In that picture, Headmaster Dumbledore was still kind, and Professor Sineipu was still gloomy.

Saturday.

Hogwarts Castle fell into the joy of the weekend again.

In the Hope Hut.

Sean touched Tina's tentacle-like hand, then immersed himself in the development of a whole new alchemy ritual.

Tina didn't hide in Sean's pocket because Sean spent less than an hour building it a residence.

The wooden house engraved with the Enlarging Charm and Shrinking Charm was simple and easy to carry; it was placed in Sean's pocket when not needed, and would transform into a small house when needed.

Tina was exploring the wooden house with novelty. Because he didn't know what kind of trees Bowtruckles liked, Sean simply took a portion of many woods from the Forbidden Forest.

During the process, he was chased and beaten by a Bowtruckle—because Sean accidentally dismantled its home's door.

Those profound parts of potion rituals played a great role in alchemy.

By borrowing potion rituals, Sean finally found the path to success.

【You have practiced the production of Bowtruckle biscuits once with the standard of an apprentice, proficiency +1】

Success!

After spending nearly a month, he finally completed the manufacture of the next Transfiguration biscuit.

After calling Jia Siting to watch, Sean took a gentle bite of the biscuit.

In less than a second, Tina jumped up from the wooden house, hung on the elm wall, and cautiously touched this "companion" beside it with its arm.

The time was still too early; there were only Sean and Jia Siting in the Hope Hut.

After about a minute, Jia Siting handed the note recording the accurate time to Sean.

There was one more type in the Fantastic Beast Transfiguration biscuit series, and Sean was one step closer to the Master-level Alchemy title.

That's right, Master-level; six expert-level intermediate alchemy creations, twelve skilled-level alchemy creations, could unlock the Expert-level title in the field of alchemy.

And the Master-level title very likely required high-level alchemy creations.

To this day, Sean still didn't know what the Master-level title would bring.

He didn't have the proficiency of any magic branch reaching Master-level yet, and the closest Transfiguration was still far behind.

Master, he was completely different from an expert; he was a wizard who reached the top in a certain field, almost corresponding to the professor's level.

In the next few days.

Sean was studying Jia Siting, who had transformed into a Bowtruckle; no matter how many times, he would still feel excited about the wonder of magic.

Look at this slender body made of tree bark and small twigs; no one would know this was Jia Siting; he was completely like a branch. In dangerous situations, this was enough to save a wizard's life.

Another point was that although Jia Siting didn't retain his will, his habits were more or less continued.

For example, he didn't reject hanging on Sean's hand, and for example, he was extremely easily attracted by the smell of food.

Sean was thinking that maybe he could use this point to achieve some other effects.

Transfiguration biscuits certainly didn't just transform wizards into Fantastic Beasts; other animals could also be used as carriers.

This meant that if Sean could develop a Dragon biscuit, then he could possess a short-term Dragon army.

Although not necessarily listening to commands.

"Are you okay?"

Sean looked at Jia Siting, who had finished transforming, and asked.

"It's truly wonderful! Sean, I actually managed to transform into a Bowtruckle—"

Jia Siting was very excited; he could fully imagine the significance of this.

It was no exaggeration to say that without prior knowledge, even Headmaster Dumbledore might not necessarily pay attention to a Bowtruckle.

"Sean, I think this shouldn't be publicized."

In the early morning, the snow was slowly melting, and Jia Siting's voice mixed with the sound of snow dripping.

Sean nodded, and just as they were discussing "One Hundred Uses of a Bowtruckle," a paper airplane flew straight through the wall.

"See you tonight."

After Sean received the letter, he quickly rushed to the Alchemy office.

Professor Taila watched Sean arrive, her arm raised upward, and the wave-like ground sent Sean to the professor.

"The International Alchemy Assembly will be held in two and a half months; regarding Fantastic Beast Transfiguration, I know about as much as those mediocre alchemists.

My disciple, this is a path opened by you, walked by you, and honored by you.

The only thing I can tell you is that you need at least three kinds of Fantastic Beast Transfiguration biscuits to announce to those wizards that the era of alchemy's decline has ended."

The light called pride flickered in Professor Taila's eyes.

From today on, no one could spread rumors that Hogwarts students were not as good as before.

"I know, this is very difficult; genius-like inspiration is fleeting.

Even those alchemists who are old and dying don't dare to guarantee anything; creating a magic ritual... how intoxicating."

Professor Taila was full of emotion.

"How far has it progressed?"

"Completed, Professor."

Sean answered.

"Be pati... you mean—"

Professor Taila's fingers curled slightly, and a biscuit growing twigs arrived in her hand.

She suppressed surging emotions under her deep face.

Finally, it only turned into a deep regret.

"You will surpass Master Nicolas Flamel; when he meets you, you will both understand... the greatness of magic lies in the fact that it equally welcomes every wizard."

Professor Taila said word by word with a look Sean had never seen before.

Before leaving the classroom, Professor Taila asked again:

"Have you named it?"

Sean was silent.

He seemed to... have indeed forgotten this matter.

"Learn to enjoy your honor, my disciple. Those guys, they can't wait to name their creations as the most powerful objects in the magic world. And you—"

Professor Taila felt a bit funny.

Some wizards racked their brains but couldn't make any waves, while some wizards, with a single thought, would turn the entire alchemy world upside down.

When Sean headed to the Forbidden Forest, he thought deeply about this question.

He looked at the floating "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" and "The Monster Book of Monsters" beside him, and several ideas popped into his mind.

It had to be said that the names of alchemists were appropriate; for example, the Vanishing Cabinet really vanished, the Portkey was indeed like a shuttle door, and even the twins' Headless Hat really hid the head.

So, possessing magical power, being able to transform into animals... let's call it... Fairy Tale Biscuits. ===== CHAPTER 346 =====
