Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts

#49 - Threshold of Herbal Club

After Herbology class on Monday afternoon, Moon was kept behind by Professor Sprout.

“It seems I far underestimated your talent in plant magic.”

Sprout was holding the new wand made by Moon at this time.

She first carefully observed it in her hand, and then, holding the wand, pointed it at an orchid on the workbench.

【Orchid Bloom】

After the spell was chanted, a pure white orchid quietly bloomed.

“Although I don’t know how to make them, it’s undeniable that it is indeed a qualified wand.”

Sprout gave the most pertinent evaluation.

The wand body came from a magical plant cultivated by potion, and the wand core was just unicorn tail hair picked up from the Forbidden Forest.

This has already determined that the upper limit of this wand will not be very high.

In comparison, the quality of his wand in Xilin was many levels higher.

“Alright, Mr. Scarlett, I think you have submitted an almost perfect assignment, but I can’t give you extra points this time.”

Sprout returned the wand to Moon, wiped her hands on both sides of her apron, and then solemnly took out an invitation card.

This was an envelope made of yellow parchment, with a green seal of an unknown plant pattern in the middle.

【To Mr. Moon Scarlett】

The blue font on the envelope looked like it had been written a long time ago.

“Actually, I had prepared this invitation a long time ago, but I really didn’t expect that you could complete this impossible task in such a short period of time.”

“Professor, it is actually your club that has been motivating me.”

Moon returned the compliment to Sprout as it was, and then took the envelope and opened it.

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

Dear Mr. Moon Scarlett:

In view of your outstanding completion of the task, proving your excellent talent in herbal plants.

You are hereby cordially invited to join the 【Christmas Cactus Club】.

In addition: The club holds gatherings every Monday night at 7 o'clock, voluntary participation, the address is the third small classroom on the right side of the auditorium.

Pomona Sprout

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

“How is it, are you interested?” Professor Sprout asked with a smile after Moon finished reading the letter.

“Of course!” Moon solemnly put the letter in his pocket and replied.

“Okay, believe me, child, the answer you hand in tonight will definitely surprise everyone.”

Sprout said, patted Moon on the shoulder, and then went to prepare for tonight's club ceremony.

After Moon left the greenhouse, he first went to the library to complete today's homework, and then went to the auditorium to eat.

He had to leave enough time for club activities.

However, he had just arrived at the auditorium and hadn't had time to take a few bites when Cedric walked over directly.

“The gathering is at 7 o’clock in the evening. If there’s nothing else, we can actually go over first.”

Hearing Cedric say this, Moon knew that this 【Christmas Cactus Club】 secretary had already heard the news from Sprout.

“Uh, okay.”

Moon hurriedly swallowed the food, wiped his mouth, and followed Cedric away.

“It seems Moon got Professor Sprout’s invitation as he wished.”

Ron looked at Moon’s departure with some envy, and then stuffed a large mouthful of pudding into his mouth.

Hermione, who was sitting next to him, also stared at the direction Moon left, she had stopped turning the pages of the book, and there seemed to be thinking in her eyes, and also a kind of urgent desire.

......

“I really didn’t expect you to complete the wand making so quickly. When Professor Sprout asked me to tell you the club rules, I almost didn’t react.”

The club classroom was very close to the auditorium. Cedric had just finished speaking when they arrived at the classroom door.

This was a very inconspicuous small wooden door, next to the staircase leading to the Hufflepuff common room.

Cedric directly pushed the door open and motioned for Moon to come in together.

“Actually, I didn’t expect making a wand to be so fast either, maybe I really have talent in this area.”

Moon replied and then seriously began to look around the small classroom.

This was almost another replica of the greenhouse, the smell of plant soil filled the entire classroom.

The surrounding walls were covered with unknown vine plants, and below were several long wooden workbenches.

Each workbench was filled with plants of various shapes, and the aroma they emitted made Moon feel that the entire classroom was a huge forest.

There were no chairs in the entire classroom, the walls were covered with plants, and the surrounding workbenches and the table in the middle were also full of plants.

If Moon were to describe this place, it could only be plants, plants, and more plants.

“The club currently has thirty-two members, if you only count the students at the school, you are just the seventh.”

After seeing Moon finish admiring the environment, Cedric explained the club’s situation.

“Seven people! Isn’t that a bit few?”

Moon was about to look at the plants on the workbench when he heard Cedric say this, and he turned his head in confusion.

“Actually, it’s not too few, think about what the conditions for your joining are.”

Cedric reminded him, and Moon reacted.

He was able to join the club because he had grown a magical plant and then used the magical plant to create a wand.

The difficulty of doing this was very high. He had four years of planting experience at the Xilin Farm to ensure the survival of the seedlings.

Then there were three years of wood carving experience, plus the flash of inspiration when making the wand, which allowed him to complete the first wand.

If the difficulty of joining the club was like this, then seven people was indeed not too few.

As if to prove the club’s absolute authority in herbal plants.

Cedric led Moon to the workbench.

“This table is where each member’s work when they joined is displayed, each one is a new discovery and utilization of herbal plants.”

Cedric pointed to a plant with curled leaves.

“This is snail grass, cultivated by Senior Bernal, and then the juice it produces is made into an excellent magical adhesive.”

Cedric said, picking up a transparent glass bottle next to the plant, with a white label on it that read “Bernal Adhesive”.

“This adhesive has a very strong viscosity and lasts for a long time. It is said that Quality Quidditch Supplies has already sent an invitation to Senior Bernal, and he will go to work there as soon as he graduates next year.”

......

“This is Swallowtail flower, successfully planted by Senior Molinar, and then made into a uniquely flavored incense.”

Speaking of this, Cedric suddenly leaned closer and said softly.

“Although the professor does not allow this semi-finished incense to enter the market, Senior Molinar has secretly given it to several friends to try, and it is said that they are all very satisfied.”

......

“This is Sleepy Face Fungus, which my dad and I discovered during a wilderness expedition. Its spores have a very strong hypnotic effect. I joined the club by relying on this.”

Cedric was a little embarrassed when introducing his work.

Because compared to other people's plants that already have usable finished products, his joining work was only the discovery of a magical plant that has not yet been registered.

However, Moon did not notice the change in the boy's face opposite him.

After listening to Cedric's explanation, he truly understood how high the club's threshold was, and why there were so few people.
