Hogwarts: From Luna's House to Godhood Through Intense Competition

Luna tilted her head slightly and forced a smile. "There should be a little."

Just then, the back of Vizet's hand touched hers.

The cool back of his hand touched Luna's forehead, and the pleasant coolness she felt flowed into her heart.

Luna stretched her neck forward, fully absorbing the pleasant coolness.

"No fever, that's good." Vizet sat down opposite Luna, putting down the oil paper package she was holding. "Any other symptoms?"

Luna tilted her head, her cheek resting on the bird-snake quilt, "Like a Niffler hiding treasure or a harassing horsefly having a party?"

Vizette nodded. "Sore throat...stuffy nose...do you want to fly to the clouds?"

Luna nodded, making a muffled, dreamlike sound, "I was blown down by the cold wind just now."

“It’s just the flu, it’s been like this for a while now.” Vizette breathed a sigh of relief, reached into his pocket, and pulled out a medicine bottle.

Luna forced herself to stand up. "I'll go get some dried fruit."

“This is sweet, no dried fruit needed,” Vizette smiled slightly. “Are you so afraid of taking medicine?”

Luna shook her head. "I heard from Colin and the others that the stimulant tastes like... a Moonfox dancing a tap dance for three days and three nights in a pot of old slug soup."

“That was a truly horrible smell! But that was reserved for Gryffindor.” Vizette couldn’t help but chuckle. “What I’m giving you now is reserved for Lovegood.”

"I slightly modified the recipe and increased the sweetness, so it took a while, but it was just in time..."

Luna took the energy drink and, without hesitation, gulped down the entire bottle.

The energizer had an immediate effect; the previously pale face instantly became rosy, and even turned redder, like a glistening red apple.

Not only that, but white smoke was coming out of her ears and the top of her head.

Luna also felt something was wrong with her body. "I want to see what it's like now..."

"Take a look!" Knowing that Luna wanted to see for herself, Vizette placed her wand against the potion bottle, turning it into a light mirror.

Luna looked at herself in the mirror. "I look like... the Hogwarts Express?"

"It's the Lovegood Express."

"Yes! The Lovegood Express!"

Luna giggled, and as the blush faded from her face, she became completely energetic.

She caught the flu from oversleeping in the afternoon, but because she took a stimulant in time, she recovered much faster.

Vizette noticed that Luna showed great interest in the white smoke coming from her head and ears, looking at it from left to right, her smile growing sweeter.

"Besides the energy booster, I also prepared some preventative medicine." He took out two more medicine bottles. "I was thinking of giving them to you just in case, but I didn't expect to use the energy booster first."

Luna put down the mirror and blinked. "A preventative?"

“Remember the Sprite we drank at the department store?” Vizette opened the two medicine bottles and unfolded the oil paper package next to her.

"I specifically adjusted the flavor of the preventative spray to make it taste as close to Sprite as possible. You can try it, and add this..."

He pushed the oil paper package forward; inside were several roasted chicken legs, several roasted sausages, a serving of potato chips, and a Yorkshire pudding.

Ever since he learned the location of the Hogwarts kitchens, he would occasionally visit them.

The house-elves were very enthusiastic, and the problem of not being able to eat three meals a day because they were always late was easily solved.

“Let’s eat together!” Luna took a bite of a potato chip, then picked up a roasted chicken leg and held it to Vizet’s mouth.

"Hmm." Vizette took the chicken leg, took a bite, and drank a mouthful of the bubbly preventative medicine. "How does this preventative medicine feel?"

Luna commented earnestly, "It tastes a lot like Sprite... but there's also a hint of cola... is it because of the herbs?"

“Yes, several kinds of herbs were used.” Vizet cut the Yorkshire pudding in half, handing the half with more ground beef to Luna. “Do you think there’s anything that could be improved?”

Chapter 142 New Preventatives and the Club

“What can be improved?” Luna broke the Yorkshire pudding in half again, handing the half with more beef filling to Vizet. “I want it sweet.”

She unwrapped the chocolate frog from before, sandwiched it inside her Yorkshire pudding, and took a delicious bite.

Although Yorkshire pudding has the word "pudding" in its name, it actually tastes more like soft bread and is quite salty because salt is added during the making process.

The fillings can be either savory or sweet. You can add minced meat, or sweet fillings such as yogurt jam or chocolate.

Vizette nodded. "If you like it, that's good. Is that enough?"

"That's enough," Luna replied.

She was still pondering the question from earlier, looking at Vizette who was also drinking the preventative potion, "Is this preventative potion... not magical enough?"

"Not enough magic?" Vizet shook the potion bottle, then floated up in the mirror to look at herself.

A person's ideas have their limits, and sometimes it is easy to overlook the factors that were previously valued.

In such situations, it's often necessary to have someone who understands you offer some guidance.

Vizette glanced at Luna, who was still emitting white smoke, and exclaimed in realization, "That's it! It's definitely not magical enough!"

"The texture and flavor are what I imitated, but more importantly... of course, it's the unique characteristics that belong to magic!"

"After taking the stimulant, white smoke appears... white smoke... I guess I'll have to consult a fireworks expert..."

-------------------------------------

After the bag spider they encountered last time, Fred and George have acquired a new pet – a bright orange fire lizard.

This is the salamander they "rescued" from their magical creatures class. Now, instead of venturing into barrels, the two of them dedicate themselves to caring for the salamander, feeding it hot charcoal sticks.

It seems that feeding them charcoal sticks isn't their ultimate goal, because they might try to suddenly shove a firework tube into the salamander's mouth when it opens it.

The salamander is just a bit too quick to react; it will immediately close its mouth when the charcoal is removed.

“It’s still not familiar with us enough,” Fred said with some regret. “We’ll have to feed it for another two days. Once it recognizes us, it’ll be able to put fireworks in its mouth.”

Luna asked curiously, "Why...why do you feed it fireworks?"

"I want to try something new and see if I can make one of those..." George swung his arms and twirled around, "...fireworks that inflate on their own!"

Fred added knowingly, "Yes! It's the kind of firework that you try to erase with a vanishing charm, but it just keeps expanding!"

George raised an eyebrow, noticing the preventative medication in Vizette's hand: "What's wrong? You don't look like you have the flu..."

"The color seems off, doesn't it?" Fred stroked his chin. "I remember the energy drink we had... it was rather red?"

George sighed. "Sigh! This is what happens when Snape gives you special treatment!"

Vizette remained noncommittal, picking up the preventative medication and saying, "This is a preventative medication for the flu, but Luna thinks it can be improved."

"Hey! You were the one who suggested it!" Fred and George exclaimed, both turning their gazes to Luna beside them. "How are you planning to improve it?"

Faced with their slightly teasing gazes, Luna explained frankly, "Vizet and I both think that after drinking it, we should also be able to produce white smoke."

The Weasley twins clapped together. "You two really have a knack for pranks, mimicking the effects of an energy drink to ward off the flu!"

Fred scratched his head. "Making white smoke isn't difficult... but making it safe is a bit of a problem."

George added, "After all, we're good at making fireworks, but when it comes to potions, we'll win if we don't get points deducted by Snape."

Luna took out her sketchbook, which featured a uniquely shaped bottle. "What if we used this?"

Fred and George both came over, glanced at the picture book, then looked at Luna, asking with curiosity and excitement, "What kind of bottle is this?"

Luna then looked at Vizette.

"This is called a 'Corde bottle,' and you can put the ingredients that make white smoke here..." Wizette explained.

He pointed to the transparent bead at the neck of the bottle, "When you drink it, you should press the tip of your tongue against this bead so that you can better drink the preventative agent inside and also come into contact with the components that produce white smoke."

"That's so cool!" Fred and George instantly understood and couldn't help but exclaim, "How did you come up with such a brilliant idea?"

Vizette laughed and said, "Actually, this is a Muggle invention. Even my preventative is based on one of their drinks."

Fred nodded as if suddenly realizing something. "No wonder Daddy's obsessed with Muggles..."

George chimed in, "Yes! After all, that car is quite remarkable!"

……

To address the most critical security issue, Fred and George used their expertise, employing alchemy to create the necessary powder.

This powder requires the feathers of the Silent Bird, and its overall alchemical concept is similar to that of the Truth Potion, except that it produces white smoke instead of truth.

Based on her memory, Luna continued to refine and innovate the design of the Codd Bottle, redrawing it into the shape of the Moon-obsessed Beast.

Once the bottle's shape is finalized, Vizette will use shapeshifting magic to mold the potion bottle into the corresponding shape.

Finally, by adding the preventative agent and alchemical powder, the brand-new preventative agent was successfully created just before Halloween.

Looking at the uniquely designed preventative spray, George suggested, "How about we start a club?"

Luna blinked. "The club?"

“I agree!” Fred immediately raised his hand in agreement. “Consider this preventative measure our first action!”

Clubs are actually quite common at Hogwarts. There are many long-standing clubs, such as the Gobstone Club, the Charms Club, and the Divination Club...

Like Wizette's roommates, Michael joined the Divination Club, and Anthony joined the Curse Club.

Vizette occasionally participates in the Charms Club, but he joins as an assistant instructor. If Flitwick is too busy, he will help explain some tricks about charms.
