Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

The second request made by Charles was much more difficult than the first one. It was not difficult to brew the potion, and Charles gave the formula to Snape.

Not to mention him, any student in fifth or sixth grade who is eligible to be selected for Snape's advanced potions course can brew it independently.

The difference is just the speed or slowness of the process.

The second requirement is completely different from the first requirement. Improvement is a topic and no one knows how long it will take.

Maybe it's short, maybe it's long.

But as a potion master, Snape was still very confident in himself, and after brewing so many age-increasing potions before, Snape already had some ideas about the formula in his mind.

It's just that he doesn't like to see Ciel, and of course he won't propose improvements.

A week may seem a bit rushed, but it should still be enough.

So he still didn't refute and nodded silently again.

"Very well, let's settle it then."

"You can improve the potion first, and then brew the improved formula. Maybe you can make arrangements yourself. I will come to you again before the holidays and take away the potion."

"The amount of potion should be enough for me to use for at least one holiday."

Snape nodded.

"That's all your current tasks."

"Also, by the way, help me monitor Dumbledore. I am an Obscurus. He must know it, and you should know it too. But he hasn't found me yet."

"You must also find it strange."

"Maybe he has his own plans."

Snape finally spoke.

"He always does."

"perhaps."

Ciel shrugged.

"But I don't like this feeling."

"So, you have to help me figure out what Dumbledore is up to."

Snape nodded again.

"Then, let's do this for today."

Ciel smiled again.

"The rest of the time is up to you."

He left Snape's office without any regrets, but as soon as he took one foot out, he looked back again.

"I'll lock the office door for you."

"you are welcome."

With the experience of previous exchanges, Snape knew very well that Ciel would not leave honestly, and he had been waiting for Ciel's move.

So he didn't rush to see Lily's photo frame at all, but still stood there motionless.

Sure enough, Ciel suddenly turned around again.

Seeing that Snape had expected him, Charles felt a little bored. He waved his hand and left completely.

Snape moved his wand.

"Crack!"

The door to the office was enchanted with magic, and the door lock automatically twisted. With the sound of rattling gears, the door was locked tightly.

After closing his eyes and calming down for a while, Snape turned and walked towards his desk.

I don't know why, but his legs seemed to be shaking a little, probably because the wounds caused by the three-headed dog bites have not healed yet.

………………

Lying in bed, after finishing his daily chat with Hermione through the magic notebook, Ciel opened the map of the United States.

He was not worried that Snape would fail to improve it, because in the game, he succeeded. It was a pity that Ciel did not ask for the formula at that time.

So this task can only be given back to Snape.

This is the first step.

The problem of age-enhancing drugs must be solved first, otherwise the holiday trip to the United States will be greatly compromised.

Then, Ciel will return to Wonderland. He has not cleared a dungeon for a long time because he has been waiting for the big plot. Now that the big plot has appeared, he can continue to look for intermediate dungeons.

There will be a lot of valuable drops there.

In fact, now, with the establishment of the tree house, Hermione's synesthesia, guarding the magic well, and preparing for the next battle, Ciel already needs to prepare many magic props.

These are all brushed out from the copy.

And he should also level up, and the things dropped by Scar's Beast Legion haven't been opened yet. This dungeon only drops some beast-related talents and skills, and the things are not bad but not bad.

The most important thing is that he should recruit helpers, or pets or something.

The Flying Monkeys Army, the Chess and Poker Army, the Nutcracker Army, and the Beast Army, Ciel can't fight against four legions by himself.

Not even with Hermione's group of princesses.

So helpers are also imperative.

And these are all in the fairyland and also in the copy.

Finally, Charles will not put all his energy into Hogwarts and England. The world is so big, and the New World is also exciting.

He wouldn't miss it.

………………

Unlike Ciel who quickly fell asleep, Hermione's life on the other hand was much more lively.

In other words, Hermione had this premonition since she had synesthesia with the princess group, and the peaceful life in the past had gradually left her.

She was running down an inexplicable path.

"So, have you chosen your gift?"

Rapunzel asked, lying on the edge of Hermione's bed, leaning on her chin.

"No."

Hermione replied that she was lying on the bed reading the Potions textbook. She thought this course was quite interesting, if it weren't for Snape always looking at her inexplicably.

Now she is used to communicating with other people by thinking in her heart, otherwise talking to herself would look too strange in the eyes of other roommates.

In fact, even so, in the eyes of sisters Lavender and Parvati, Hermione found it strange that someone's expression would change several times while looking at a potions textbook, sometimes happy and sometimes worried.

But considering that she is a know-it-all, it doesn't seem so strange after all.

"How about apple pie?"

Bai Xue suddenly appeared from the other side. She also imitated Rapunzel's behavior, leaning on her chin and lying next to Hermione's bed, but her other hand was holding a piece of delicious apple pie.

"I found an apple tree in the forest. It's delicious."

Hermione and Rapunzel slowly turned their attention to Snow White.

The two felt that there were too many flaws in Bai Xue's words, and they didn't know where to start.

Fortunately, Bai Xue is not really stupid. In other words, most of the time she looks innocent to the outside world. In fact, she is not very stupid when she treats her sisters and familiar people.

"Don't worry, it's a very ordinary apple."

"I don't think apples growing on such a tall tree are ordinary at all."

Hermione complained.

"How did you take it off?"

Rapunzel was curious.

"Of course the birds picked it for me. I can't climb trees."

"Okay, but you'd better not reveal that you're always making those little birds do this and that."

"why?"

"Because Ella just complained to me yesterday that some birds always steal our food and said that this is the revenge they deserve."

"But that's what they deserve."

"Anyway, just don't expose it."

"I think your reminder is a bit late."

Hermione, who was reading a book, suddenly pointed behind Rapunzel and Snow White. Behind them, Ella was holding a broom and watching them expressionlessly.

Why does Rapunzel want to count me in? !
