When Vizette was at Luna's house, she ate Xenophilius's homemade cookies, made with Gordigan and flour, with a strong onion flavor and no other aroma.
Although the meals provided by the orphanage in his previous life were nutritionally balanced, the taste was indescribable, which led him to not have much interest in food; being full was his primary goal.
Faced with a sudden choice, he turned to Qiu Zhang for help: "Do you have any recommendations? I've never seen any of those snacks before."
“It’s a bit hard to choose, each has its own unique features…” Qiu Zhang frowned and pondered. “If you want to experience the fun of snacks, Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans, Super Bubble Gum, and Chocolate Frog are all pretty good.”
The snacks were extremely affordable; Vizet bought several of the snacks that Qiu Zhang had mentioned, and it only cost him fifteen copper nats.
"This is the most magical place," Wizette exclaimed.
If converted to prices from the previous life, these snacks would only cost around five yuan, which is unbelievably cheap.
Moreover, the packaging of these snacks is brightly colored and very eye-catching.
The blue cardboard box containing the chocolate frog, in particular, has gold trim on the top and bottom, making it look very exquisite.
"Thank you!" Qiu Zhang accepted the chocolate frog that Vizet handed her.
She opened a box of chocolate frogs, and the chocolate frog inside leaped up, drawing a brown arc in the air.
With lightning speed, Vizette gently pinched the chocolate frog, a look of surprise on her face. "This can actually move? That's amazing!"
Through his magical eye, he discovered that the Chocolate Frog's surface was covered in magic, along with a similarly blurry symbol.
“The pictures inside are amazing too!” Qiu Zhang took a picture out of the box.
The picture also features blurred magical symbols, including an old man with a white beard and the character's name—Albus Dumbledore.
Dumbledore smiled, nodded slightly to Wizette, and then disappeared into the picture.
Vizette quickly asked, "How did he disappear?"
“That’s magic!” Qiu Zhang explained with a smile. “In the magical world, there are many paintings that can move and may leave this painting to visit other paintings.”
"The most valuable items in Chocolate Frog are these picture cards. If you're interested, you can start collecting them; the character introductions on them are quite interesting."
“Character introduction?” Vizette flipped the picture over and read the introduction.
"Universally recognized as the greatest wizard...defeated Gellert Grindelwald, leader of the Sorcerer Party, in 1945...and achieved remarkable success in alchemy with Nicolas Flamel, creator of the Philosopher's Stone..."
Not only are the pictures fun, but the chocolate frog also tastes delicious.
The aroma of milk and chocolate is very rich. The chocolate frog melts quickly in your mouth, leaving a silky smooth feeling.
The perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness makes it worthy of the highest praise—it's not too sweet.
"It should be sent to Luna... and Mr. Lovegood!" Vizette's eyes lit up, and she quickly ran up the corridor to look for the witch she had just been selling...
Cho Chang must be very popular in Ravenclaw; students come to visit from time to time.
Just after noon, another beautiful brown-haired girl came to the place.
The girl is a fifth-grade student in Ravenclaw named Penelope Crivart.
Penelope hugged Qiu Zhang's waist and said, "Qiu, I feel so much pressure right now... The OWL exam is coming up this school year, and I'm also the prefect."
As she spoke, she tugged at the badge on her chest, the blue and bronze color of the badge gleaming.
Qiu Zhang patted Penelope on the shoulder and comforted her, "Isn't this a good thing? I heard you even have a private bathroom, and a very luxurious one at that."
“Enjoying benefits comes with obligations,” Penelope sighed. “For example, patrolling the train. I just switched shifts with Percy Weasley, and I have a meeting later…”
"I came here to sit for a while during my shift break and practice some magic... I couldn't cast spells during summer vacation, which took up a lot of my time."
With that, she took out a wand from her pocket and handed a notebook to Cho Chang. "Cho, can you check if I've memorized the contents correctly? The summoning charm is 'Accio' (fly)..."
"This is a spell that can make a distant target fly towards you. Important notes for casting this spell... You must concentrate and clearly visualize the target; it cannot be used on living beings..."
She pointed her wand in Cho Chang's direction, "Notes, fly here!"
Qiu Zhang flipped through a few pages of the notebook, then fell silent.
“I haven’t practiced enough…” Penelope looked annoyed. “I need to concentrate… visualize clearly… notes flying in…”
Vizette had some recollection of this magic, and flipping through the "Standard Spells, Level Four" in her mind, she found a description of summoning spells.
The description of summoning spells in "Standard Spells, Level 4" was quite long, and Vizette found it rather confusing.
On the contrary, he understood everything in Penelope's notes and even felt that he could try it out.
In fact, Lee Jordan wanted to try it out when he was practicing the Restoration Charm.
However, due to the special circumstances at the time, no action was taken.
Now is a good time to practice.
He placed the Chocolate Frog opposite him, took out his bayonet-like wand, and gently pulled it back. "Chocolate Frog, fly here!"
The blue box containing the chocolate frog trembled, as if pulled by a thread, and moved twice in his direction.
The learning environment is very important. Penelope tried and summarized her experiences, which also benefited Wizette a lot.
As he practiced the Flying Spell repeatedly, the blue box moved farther and farther.
Just then, hurried footsteps came from the corridor.
"Have you seen a toad? Neville's toad is missing..."
Vizette looked up and saw a panting girl in front of her.
The girl had long, fluffy brown hair, chubby cheeks, and a pair of prominent front teeth, making her look like a sea otter.
Vizette instinctively wanted to recall the Chocolate Frog, but instead habitually chanted the spell, "Chocolate Frog, fly here!"
It worked!
The blue box slipped into my palm at lightning speed.
The girl's eyes widened in disbelief. "What kind of magic is this? Why haven't I seen it in any books?"
Chapter 22 Ancient Magic: Improved Summoning Charms
The girl sat down, and Penelope and Cho Chang stopped their magic practice and turned to look at Vizette and the girl.
“Oh! I tried a few spells at home too.” The girl seemed a little excited. “It was just simple practice. I thought I knew all the spells I was going to learn this year.”
"A lot of strange things happened when I was in school. When I received my acceptance letter, I realized it was magic. As far as I know, Hogwarts is the best magic school!"
"What I mean is... I've memorized all of this year's textbooks, but I've never seen this magic of yours before. By the way! My name is Hermione Granger, what are your names?"
Hermione finished speaking in a rapid-fire manner, then looked somewhat awkwardly at the other people in the carriage.
“She’s Cho Chang, and I’m Penelope Crivat,” Penelope introduced. “Did you see Vizette casting a spell just now?”
“Yes!” Hermione nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining brightly. “He shouted, ‘Chocolate Frog, come here!’ And then the Chocolate Frog flew from his seat into his hand!”
Penelope asked incredulously, "You've learned the summoning spell?"
"I tried a few times, and that was the first time I succeeded." Vizet nodded slightly, reflecting on what had just happened.
He was so engrossed in his magic practice that he instinctively wanted to tidy up his seat, and then habitually muttered a spell.
For some reason, he remembered something Luna had once told him: when a wizard casts a spell, he always needs to have a wish in order to make the magic docile...
Penelope leaned closer. "Could you try again?"
“I’ll give it a try!” Vizet did not refuse and pointed her wand at the notebook in Cho Chang’s hand.
Following Penelope's advice, he first memorized the appearance of the notebook and tried to imagine the specific details of the notes.
After the image of the notebook appeared in his mind, he added the inspiration Luna had given him—to grant him a wish: he wanted to get the notebook from Cho Chang.
"Notes flew in!"
Whoosh!
The notebook in Qiu Zhang's hand shot out like an arrow, tracing a sharp straight line through the air before piercing into Vizet's hand.
“Merlin’s beard! That’s fourth-year magic…” Penelope said in a daze, “Is there something wrong with my magical talent?”
"Is this fourth-year magic?" Hermione asked eagerly. "Did you buy the fourth-year textbooks in advance? Have you mastered the previous textbooks?"
Vizette shook her head slightly, "They were practicing over there just now, and I listened in for a bit..."
"Just sit in on it?" Penelope covered her cheek, her voice filled with frustration. "He's a freshman, and he's already mastered fourth-year magic, while I can't even pass my revision..."
Qiu Zhang was both amused and exasperated, and could only try to comfort her gently, saying, "You received the prefect's badge; it's the school's recognition of you, and Professor Flitwick's recognition of you..."
"Could it be that you're too anxious?" Vizette tried to draw on her own experience with exams from her previous life, offering her advice, "After all, the big exam is just around the corner."
"Actually, it's quite normal to feel uneasy... Miss Krivat, after your rounds on the train, did you have lunch?"
“No.” Penelope shook her head. “I just finished my patrol and came to find Qiu.”
“That’s the reason!” Qiu Zhang’s eyes lit up. “Why don’t you eat something first? My grandfather once told me, ‘Man relies on food, iron relies on steel, and you’ll be starving if you don’t eat.’”
“Miss Krivat, here you go.” Vizette handed over a box of chocolate frogs. “It’ll give you some sugar and help relieve depression and anxiety.”
“Your notes are absolutely correct, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to quickly master the Summoning Spell in just one afternoon. I practiced step by step according to your instructions.”
"I don't think this is your problem, but rather that you're not in a good state right now, so you need to make some adjustments, at least to get back to your usual level."
"Is that so? Thank you..." Penelope was a little doubtful, but she still obediently ate a chocolate frog.
"How did you do that?" Hermione asked, puzzled. "Why would she listen to you? None of my classmates listen to me."
