Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 318 The Effects of Unicorn Tears
The potion Cedric was about to concoct was the Lesser Living Hell Potion.

After nearly a year of attempts, he was able to barely guarantee that the alchemy could proceed to the final step.

He didn't know what the outcome of the final step would be.

Because last time, the attempt to refine the medicine failed at the very last step.

After the crucible exploded, Cedric no longer had enough time and materials to try again.

"Moun, is your method really going to work?"

Cedric remained worried.

Before coming to the gathering today, Moon specifically sought him out and offered new advice on alchemy.

"Don't worry, I had Professor Snape look at the potion-making process, and he said it was fine."

To help Cedric win this match.

Moon specifically went to Snape to ask about the recipe for the Lesser Living Hell Potion.

There was only one answer.

"Don't bother me with these low-class things again!"

Snape made a sarcastic remark and then tossed the revised potion-making instructions to Moon.

"But unicorn tears are too precious, we can't just use them up so easily."

Cedric was still somewhat worried that his alchemy skills were not proficient enough, and that he might waste the unicorn tears that Moon had given him.

“You don’t need to worry at all. I have quite a lot of this stuff, and there’s no better neutralizer.”

Snape's suggestion for improvement was to add a neutralizing agent to the existing formula.

That is, unicorn tears.

And it was precisely this material that Moon obtained in considerable quantities last week.

While Moon and Cedric were concocting potions.

Most of the adult wizards were at the door, surrounding a tall, thin, elderly male wizard.

Moon only glanced at it before roughly guessing the other person's identity.

After all, on such an opportunity, the only person more popular than Professor Sprout is the legendary Master of Fantastic Beasts.

However, this master doesn't seem to be very talkative.

After briefly dealing with the wizards who surrounded him, Newt sat down with some familiar wizards at the side.

However, the Arab sorcerer named Muhammad stayed close to Newt.

Even the way he looked at Newt was dazzling, like a complete fanboy of magic.

"Master, do you really have a magical zoo?"

"Master, do you really have hundreds of magical animals in your zoo?"

Does the legendary Qilin really exist?

While the Arab sorcerer was harassing Newt.

Moore Pepper also hurriedly sought out Professor Sprantt.

"Professor, you have new materials, why didn't you let me know first?"

Just like Slug and Professor Snape were good friends.

Professor Sprout and Moore Pepper were closer because of their business relationship.

In the past, most of the basic materials produced in the school's greenhouse were purchased by Apothecary pharmacies.

"What new material?"

Sprout was also stumped by the question.

"Don't you know? It's this."

As he spoke, Moore Pepper took out the Selma flower and flame snail shell powder that he had specially asked someone to buy from the Slag Pharmacy.

"Oh, this."

Sprouse guessed what had happened with just one glance.

“This is not something produced by Hogwarts. If you really want it, you can go to my student.”

Sprout spoke, pointing to Moon and Cedric, who were refining medicine in the arena.

"them?"

Moore Pepper was somewhat surprised.

"Could they be brothers from some magical family?"

In Moore Pepper's view, it was remarkable that he could produce two rare potion ingredients at once.

That would only be possible for some very powerful magical families.

"No, it's the smaller wizard."

"smaller?"

When Moore Pepper looked back at the arena, he saw Moon drop the unicorn's tear into the crucible.

"So he really is a young master from a prominent family."

As the owner of a pharmacy that specializes in selling basic materials, Moore Pepper is well aware of the value of unicorn tears.

Although these magical objects are not common in Britain, they can still be found.

However, unicorn tears are very difficult to obtain.

The main problem is that you can't just make a unicorn cry whenever you want it to.

Even though Hogwarts has accumulated quite a bit over the years, most of it has been used to teach students, and even less of the unicorn tears have circulated outside.

"If I could obtain this material, I could definitely surpass Slag Pharmacy."

They finally waited for Moon to leave the crucible.

Moore Pepper quickly went up to greet him.

“Mr. Scarlett, I am Moore Pepper. Do you sell the unicorn tears you have?”

"I'm sorry, I have no intention of making a move at the moment."

Upon hearing that the newcomer had immediately set his sights on his new materials, Moon instinctively clutched his pocket, wanting to get away from the male wizard.

"Oh, please don't rush, sir. If you're not willing to sell the Unicorn Tears, could you tell me your home address? Perhaps we can discuss other business deals."

Seeing that Moon wanted to leave, Moore Pepper quickly made a new suggestion.

Are you sure you want my home address?

"Of course, if it's convenient, I will bring a generous gift to visit your parents."

Seeing the other person's anxious expression, Moon instinctively thought of Voldemort, who coveted the secret within him. [Could it be that he too has discovered the secret of the Scarlet Moon?]

Shouldn't it?

Last week at Hogwarts, I was scared away by Dumbledore.

It's impossible to arrive in Hogsmeade so quickly.

However, Moon wasn't sure.

With a sense of skepticism, Moon went to Ms. Rosemotta and borrowed paper and pen to write down his former address.

“Thank you very much. Don’t worry, Mr. Scarlett, our business will have a very pleasant start.”

Moore Pepper accepted the parchment and thanked Moon with a smile.

However, after just one glance at the contents of the paper, his expression turned very displeased.

"I'm here to do business with you out of kindness, I'm practically giving you money, how can you still try to refuse?"

As he spoke, Moore Pepper threw back the parchment with the words "Regent's Bridge Arch" written on it.

"Excuse me for bothering you, is something wrong?"

Moore Pepper was about to continue his attack when an old voice suddenly interrupted him.

“Oh, Master Newt, it’s nothing, we were just joking.”

Upon seeing the aged wizard's face, Moore Pepper quickly nodded in greeting.

"Just kidding, that's good."

Newt first responded to Moore Pepper with a smile, then looked at Moon.

“Mr. Scarlett, perhaps we can talk.”

“Of course, Mr. Scamander.”

The two of them sat down on the high stools at the bar next to them as they talked.

Seeing that Newt actually showed a sense of mutual respect for Moon.

Moore Pepper stood there, unsure whether to leave or stay.

"I heard you also have a Niffler? Where is it?"

"Yes, sir, its name is Beng Beng, and it's going back to pick up my order now."

"Pick up goods? It can actually help you do business."

Newt's voice unconsciously rose a few pitches.

"Yes, doesn't your Niffler?"

Moon was also keeping a close eye on the Niffler on Newt's shoulder.

This Niffler is a bit bigger than the Bouncy, and its fur is lighter, more grayish.

It was also staring at Moon with curiosity.

"Oh, not all Nifflers are so smart. It's good enough if Little Persimmon doesn't cause trouble."

Newt clearly has a very good relationship with the Niffler.

While he was speaking, he unconsciously picked up food from the plate and fed it to Sniff on his shoulder.

"唧~"

"Little Persimmon said it doesn't like to eat crucible cake."

Seeing Newt break off another piece of cake and place it on his shoulder, Moon gave him a timely reminder.

"Oh, you can actually understand its language?"

Newt's tone was even more surprised, his eyes widened, and his forehead wrinkles deepened instantly.

"Yes, can't you do it?"

Moon had heard many people mention this legendary wizard.

His suitcase contained an entire magical animal kingdom.

There must be at least several hundred magical creatures inside.

"I can only roughly guess what they mean, unlike you who can hear it so accurately."

While Newt was speaking, Moon had already picked up a hazelnut from the table and put it to his sniff.

The sniffler named Little Persimmon blinked its big eyes twice, then snatched the food from Moon's hand in one bite.

"So it really is true~"

Newt then picked up a dried fruit and fed it to Little Persimmon.

"By the way, did you also deal with the unicorn riots by talking to them last week?"

"Yes, it was mainly bouncy who helped."

Moore Pepper, who was standing to the side, only realized what was happening after hearing about the unicorn riot.

So that's how unicorn tears come about!

Seeing Newt's attitude toward Moon, Moore Pepper quickly came over and took off his hat to apologize to Moon.

“I’m very sorry, Mr. Scarlett, I didn’t know that you were the owner of the new material.”

Seeing Moon's curious gaze, the wizard who had been watching Newt stepped forward to introduce him.

"This is the owner of the Apothecary pharmacy in Diagon Alley. He seems to want to do business with you, Mr. Scarlett."

"But Mr. Moore Pepper, how could you not know about such a big thing as the Unicorn Riot?"

When others make fun of him, Moore Pepper can only smile awkwardly.

He's been so busy with the store's business lately that he hasn't paid attention to this matter.

It was only after Newt mentioned the Unicorn Riot that he remembered the name Moon Scarlett mentioned by the customers in the store.

"So you really are going to do business. I'm very happy to welcome you."

After figuring out who the other person was, Moon invited Moore Pepper to sit down.

After confirming that the materials required were the same as those at Slag Pharmacy, Moon asked him to wait a moment.

After making arrangements for the pharmacy owner.

The Arab sorcerer who had been waiting on the side also came up.

The golden light emanating from his entire body was so dazzling that Xiao Shizi could hardly see it.

“Mr. Scarlett, I also need to do business with you.”
