Chapter 31 "Entering Hogwarts Castle For The First Time"
"You will soon be able to see Hogwarts if you turn around this corner."
Jerry noticed Hagrid, the leader in front, turn back and remind them after approximately twenty minutes of walking. The dense woodlands on each side that had previously obscured their view vanished as they approached the end of the path and made a turn.
Before their sight was a vast, pitch-black lake. A magnificent medieval castle with a sinister air lies peacefully on the steep slope at the edge of the lake. The castle has several piers, and windows flicker against the starry sky.
The castle appeared to be incredibly large, especially in comparison to the lake, leaving Jerry and the other young wizards in awe.
Even if he thought Hogwarts was rather spectacular when he viewed movies in my prior life, it was only a small TV, after all. The key locations you see are unquestionably different from what you experience while you are in the cosmos, just like the universe you watch on television.
To gain more popularity, seeing the beauty in person is very different from viewing them on paper.
Now that Jerry had seen the enigmatic Hogwarts Castle from a distance while standing by the Black Lake, he fully understood why the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is so well-known in the wizarding community.
Every wizard who attended Hogwarts is presumably unable to forget the moment they first set eyes on the school.
"Each boat can hold no more than four passengers."
Hagrid instructed the wizards to board one of the boats with magic lamps that were moored by the lake at this point in order to cross the lake to Hogwarts. The wizards then started to organize into teams and get on the boat.
There are several little boats, therefore it is not necessary for them all to be completely loaded. Jerry, Hermione, and Neville were seated together naturally because many young wizards travel in groups of two or three.
"Come on!" Hagrid, who was alone on the boat, let out a soft drink once all the wizards had united successfully.
All of the little boats carrying wizards quickly and unabatedly sailed towards the direction of Hogwarts, propelled by the lake's waves.
"It's true that there are no oars used in rowing, waves are doing it!" Jerry couldn't help but say it as he observed the boats that were nicely arranged and proceeded forward on their own.
"Jerry, do you know why we have to travel by boat to the castle?" Hermione, who was sitting to the side, asked Jerry at this point with a sudden lift of her diminutive chin.
It appears that Hermione is starting to display her expertise once more in an effort to "show off." Jerry, an adult, only believes that someone is giving him popular science knowledge for free, which might anger people his own age. Isn't this wonderful?
"I truly have no idea." Jerry gave a frank response.
Because he acted that way in the movies, he genuinely didn't understand why the young wizards traveled to Hogwarts by boat. Yet, in the following films, a different method of transportation appeared to have taken its place.
However, he was watching movies at the time, and his entire concentration was on the magic. Who would be interested in using a boat or other form of transportation?
Hermione recovered her composure and started to explain to Jerry after realizing that he wasn't getting it. "The first-year students apparently take the boat to the castle as a sort of inheritance ceremony in honor of the school's founder, as I read in "A Piece of Hogwarts School History"!
"As you can see, the boat has four positions, which stand in for the four founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the direction we are traveling is the same as the four founders' path to the castle, which they followed!"
"So that is the situation. I've gained so much knowledge from it!"
Jerry learned that this was actually the case after hearing Hermione's explanation, but what shocked him even more was how many extracurricular novels Hermione read in a month of summer vacation.
She is definitely deserving of the title of Miss Know-it-all and is quite challenging to equal.
He was instantly taking in the unique landscape of the lake while listening to Hermione's different science popularizations in his ear. Jerry navigated a small boat across the lake, traveled down a shadowy passageway beneath a cliff, slowed down, and eventually came to a rest at Hogwarts Castle's underground pier.
"Everyone, please follow me now. The castle's entrance is just around the corner!"
Jerry waited for the young wizards to disembark before forming a group to follow behind Hagrid as he moved forward, holding the magic lamp.
They proceeded in this manner for 30 minutes until they reached a level area of wet grassland in the shadow of the castle, where they were met by a large oak door that doubled as the entrance to Hogwarts Castle.
A tall, black-haired witch wearing emerald green robes appeared behind the door after Hagrid banged three times on it. The witch had a stern expression on her face. It was Professor McGonagall, the dean of Gryffindor, who Jerry was familiar with.
"Freshman in my first year, Professor McGonagall."
"I'm grateful, Hagrid. Please allow me to pick you up when you are done."
Hagrid departed first, followed by Professor McGonagall, when Jerry overheard their talk. Everyone entered the castle's foyer on the first floor after crossing the stairs beneath the oak door.
"Woah, it's really big!" Jerry nodded in agreement after hearing Harry and Ron sigh.
Although it is only a corridor, He is unsure if the Extension Charm has made it larger. It appears abnormally roomy, especially the roof, which creates the odd sensation that the end is not immediately visible.
Torches that are burning fill the stone walls surrounding the entrance hall, brilliantly illuminating the space as a whole. A beautiful marble staircase that should lead to the second story is located directly across from it.
From the door on the right side of the lobby, you can barely make out the buzzing voices of hundreds of people. Jerry guessed that the Great Hall on the first level, where the ceremony for sorting will take place later, should be the location.
They are currently being led by Professor McGonagall onto the bluestone tiles that cover the entrance floor.
"Welcome to Hogwarts! Before you take your places in the auditorium for the start-of-school banquet, you must first…"
After extending greetings to the wizards, Professor McGonagall started by providing a general description of the upcoming college cup, the four houses, and the sorting ceremony.
However, she did not go into great detail as to the basis for the sorting ceremonial or the precise method used because these wizards would be aware of it in due course.
After she was done, she instructed the young wizards to straighten up their attire and wait for the sorting ritual before leaving briefly to walk to the Great Hall.
Chapter 32 "It Was The World From The Books"
"Hermione, don't worry. The sorting ceremony must go without a hitch because you are so good."
Jerry noticed that once Professor McGonagall was gone. Hermione, who was standing to the side, started to recite the fourteen spells from the textbook continuously. He reassured her in a hushed voice while displaying a frightened appearance.
He was aware that the alleged sorting ceremony was unrelated to magic and spells. It was as simple as donning a hat, and the hat would then ascertain your house affiliation based on your personality and ancestry.
If you fit the requirements for more than one house, you can speak with the Sorting Hat and select the one you prefer. Like in the movie, Harry is a perfect fit for both Gryffindor and Slytherin, but he ultimately decides to join Gryffindor, leading to his sorting into that house.
He was unable to share these details with Hermione. After all, he was unable to explain how he learned the specifics of the sorting ceremony.
"How precisely can they choose which house to put us in?"
"I guess there is a test to pass. Although Fred said it harmed us a lot, I believe he was joking." The exchange between Harry and Ron was heard by Jerry.
He looked more intently. In the room, there were more than forty wizards. The majority of the other wizards, with the exception of a few from pure-blood families like Draco, were just as anxious as Hermione. Because the majority of them believed, as Hermione did for a time, that the sorting ceremony might be decided by testing magic.
They are not Hermione. Actually, the majority of wizards resemble Harry and Ron. Even now, not a single spell has been successfully cast by them.
Despite the fact that children from pure-blood wizarding households, like the Malfoys, may have been exposed to magic sooner than those from Muggle homes, the quantity of magic they possess is not significantly greater.
It appears that this is because the magic blood in the bodies of the wizards will stabilize until they are eleven years old, at which point they will be able to learn how to cast magic, according to the film that Jerry witnessed in his former life.
Children from wizard families and children from regular homes have the same personalities. Few kids in this age bracket, with the exception of Hermione, are eager to calm down and delve into those challenging magical concepts.
Children from wizarding families ought to have access to a larger variety of information. Draco and the others will be aware of the significance of the ceremony.
They merely find the terrified expressions on those young Muggle-born wizards to be quite entertaining. Why even bother to mention it to them?
Regarding Ron and Neville, who share a wizarding family of origin, Ron is affected by George and Fred because they are his brother who loves to make a joke about it. Neville struggles with remembering. He might not recall it even if his grandmother did mention it.
"Aahhh!"
A few screams abruptly broke the tense mood in the room as the young wizards were engrossed in the sorting ceremony's intensity. Jerry looked in the direction the voice was coming from after turning his head.
More than 20 transparent ghosts appeared to enter the room through the wall, fly above the young wizards' heads, and wave at them.
"Come on out and make a row behind me. The sorting ceremony is about to begin!"
At this point, Professor McGonagall returned to the door, and the floating ghosts dissipated by filing into the wall.
"This is a truly amazing sight, I must say."
Jerry and the others formed a line as they awaited Professor McGonagall's entrance into the opulent hall. They couldn't help but be amazed as they saw the situation in the hallway. The hall is magnificently furnished, probably because it is an important opening dinner and sorting ceremony.
The magic chandelier hovering above the auditorium was replaced by tens of thousands of candles that had been cast using the floating spell, lighting up the whole space.
Golden plates and silver goblets gleamed on the four long tables in the hall filled with wizards, but Jerry was most amazed by the hall's ceiling.
If you don't pay close attention, you might assume that the sky above the hall is open because when you look up, you can see the stunning galaxy hanging above.
Jerry paused beneath the podium between the long tables for the four houses and the long tables for the teachers when he noticed Professor McGonagall move a stool and place it on the main stage. She then brought another hat, which was filthy, worn out, and patched.
"It is said that this sorting hat is as old as Hogwarts."
It appears that Godric Gryffindor, the man who founded Hogwarts, originally wore an everyday hat before it became the sorting hat. The four founders later infused it with magic.
Jerry occasionally had the impression that the magic in the "Harry Potter" universe was extremely potent because it allowed him to give autonomous thought and personality to an inanimate object.
Its strength comes from its fundamental idealism rather than from its terrifying destructive power. It's truly miraculous and has no scientific basis.
"You could think that I'm not attractive, but you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I'll eat myself up if you can locate a prettier hat than mine."
A large slit that resembled a mouth opened when the hat spun on the stool and started singing loudly its own unique song.
What's even more absurd is that the hat, after singing, rose up quite politely and made a very beautiful bow in response to the wizards' tremendous applause below.
Have you ever seen a hat bow to you? Definitely not. Jerry saw it for the first time that day. When he viewed a movie in his prior life, he didn't appear to see this part.
"Whoever's name I call now, take a seat on the stool, put on the hat, and wait for the sorting."
"Hannah Abbott." said Professor McGonagall as she moved forward, holding the parchment and carefully opening it.
A little girl with two golden braids and a ruddy complexion walked out of the line. "Ah, Hannah Abbott!"
Jerry finally understood what was wrong as he turned to face the little girl who was sitting on the stool and wearing the sorting hat. It turns out that this is the "Harry Potter" universe described in the books, not the one seen in the movie.
Because he was able to recall with great clarity that Hannah Abbott was the first person to be sorted in the book, whereas Hermione Granger was the first person to be sorted in the movie.
He had read about Hannah Abbott a few times in his previous life. The important thing to remember is that he only sometimes viewed those films on TV in his previous life and didn't go looking for the original book to read.
This…shouldn't…be too much of a distinction between the movie and the original work, right?
Chapter 33 "Accident At The Sorting Ceremony"
"Hufflepuff!"
The hat only remained on Hannah's head for a brief period of time before swiftly revealing the sorting outcome. The wizards at the rightmost of the four long tables at this point jumped up and cheered, inviting the young girl called Hannah to join Hufflepuff.
"Susan Bones! Hufflepuff!"
"Terry Boot! Ravenclaw!"
"Hermione Granger!"
Hermione's name was finally called out to the Sorting Hat after it quickly sorted out seven or eight young wizards.
"Go forward!" Hermione rushed all the way to the platform while Jerry applauded.
"Gryffindor!"
The Sorting Hat finally shouted out Gryffindor after stopping for a moment as if it had sensed something, and Hermione joyously rushed to the long Gryffindor table on the far left, which was surrounded by clapping.
"Jerry Carmen!" Jerry's name came out of Professor McGonagall's mouth as soon as Hermione finished the sorting.
He arranged his wizard robes before taking a leisurely stroll to the stool, where he donned the sorting hat.
"I would like to say…"
Jerry was ready to ask the Sorting Hat if he might be placed in Gryffindor like Harry did in the movie, but as soon as it touched his hair, it revealed the actual results of the sorting.
"Slytherin!"
"Slytherin?!"
When Jerry heard the Sorting Hat shout the result, it was as if 10,000 horses were galloping through his heart. The Sorting Hat's sound was the only thing that made him feel as though all of his previous plans had been entirely destroyed.
He removed his sorting hat with a little stiffness. Jerry looked at Professor McGonagall's regretful expression as he stumbled aimlessly toward the long Slytherin table in the second row to the right.
Hermione, who was seated on the other side of the Gryffindor table, was similarly dejected when she learned that Jerry had been placed in the Slytherin house.
She truly wanted to be in Gryffindor alongside Jerry, but she never imagined that the Sorting Hat would place this unique and special buddy in Slytherin. She nevertheless managed to hold back her disappointment and waved to Jerry nearby.
She understood that Jerry would be devastated to be placed in Slytherin because he had truly preferred to be in Gryffindor. Look, given his expression right now, you can infer a few things.
"Why was Jerry placed in Slytherin? The wizards from Slytherin are among those who have gone evil!"
When Jerry was placed in Slytherin in the row, Ron, who had not yet been sorted, expressed his shock to Harry, who was next to him.
"Jerry is a good person. Remember how he assisted us in teaching Malfoy a lesson on the train?"
Despite Ron's brainwashing leaving Harry with a negative picture of Slytherin, Harry was still very appreciative of Jerry for his noble deed on the train.
So even if Jerry was assigned to Slytherin, he still felt that Jerry could not be a bad person.
"Oh, I know. Jerry is not, in my opinion, a bad person. Simply said, I believe that the Sorting Hat was placed in the incorrect house. Jerry ought to be placed in Gryffindor." Ron let out a shrug.
The Sorting Hat also placed Draco on the stool in Slytherin at this very instant. Harry observed this and couldn't help but nod. Slytherin ought to be appropriate for a person like Draco.
"Why is it Slytherin? This is baseless!" Jerry, who was seated at the long table in Slytherin, grimaced and started to think since he wasn't in the mood to witness the sorting ceremony right now.
Why did the Sorting Hat immediately classify him as a Slytherin? As he carefully considered the different comments made about Slytherin, he finally felt a glimmer of comprehension.
One must be pure-blooded, which means that both of one's parents must be wizards, in order to be admitted to Slytherin. No matter how talented a wizard she is, a Muggle-parented wizard-like Hermione will never be placed in the Slytherin house.
Who are Jerry's parents in this world?
That doesn't even exist. His body is an odd panel that was imported from Marvel's world, and the wizard's blood that formerly flowed through it was likewise exchanged for red stars. According to Jerry, the wizard blood he traded with the red star may be the oldest and purest wizard blood.
After all, the mysterious panel managed to transport him from the Marvel universe to the Harry Potter universe, and the blood of the wizard he arbitrarily exchanged is still a mess.
In his opinion, pure-blood wizard blood should have a larger development limit than mixed-blood wizard blood; for instance, the magic strength will be greater than that of persons of the same age. This is not to say that mixed blood is evil.
Of course, one's ability to use magic effectively and comprehend its subtle advantages is what really determines how strong they are.
Despite having mixed blood, Voldemort, Snape, and Professor McGonagall are all extremely powerful, especially Voldemort, who is arguably only second to Dumbledore and Grindelwald in terms of strength.
In truth, Hermione may be categorized as mixed race; perhaps the concentration is not as great. Jerry believes that for wizards born into Muggle homes, at least one of both parents' ancestors must have been a wizard; nevertheless, the descendants' wizard blood has not yet awakened.
Outsiders perceive Slytherin wizards as being arrogant, overly ambitious, cunning, and eager to engage in power struggles in order to gain an advantage. Jerry believed that none of these applied to him.
But after thorough consideration, it seems that his interpretation of Slytherin was overly biased. Perhaps a remark about Slytherin that he unintentionally saw online is more appropriate for his current predicament.
In that comment, it was stated that Professor Slughorn, who made an appearance in the sixth year, should truly represent Slytherin.
He doesn't initiate harming others, but he chases fame and wealth and enjoys having superstars as students. A win-win situation can also be achieved by forming a slug club with exceptional pupils.
He supports the pure blood, yet he is not an ignorant supporter. He respects the Muggle-born as well. He has a great mind. While he will assess the issue and make sure that his own interests are protected, he also has his own priorities. As a Slytherin, he fiercely supported Hogwarts in the Battle of Hogwarts.
As a result, a Slytherin should be a self-centered someone with a plan, someone who won't go out of their way to harm others. If you consider it in this manner, it appears that he and the man who has given his life new life have certain similarities.
Pure blood, the most genuine character in his heart, and doing good deeds. Are these the reasons the Sorting Hat classified him as a Slytherin?
Chapter 34 "Bold and Fearful Jerry"
"Oh no, I can only move forward one step at a time now that things are happening!" Based on the findings, Jerry developed all of the present analyses. He is unsure if that is true or not.
After all, the Sorting Hat's classification is based on the wizard's deepest feelings, and it is evident that he wants to join Gryffindor. Is it possible that Slytherin is where he truly wants to be in his heart?
There is no need to worry about it right now, so forget it. He can only study magic at Hogwarts as a Slytherin because that is the house he has been placed in. He turned to face professor McGonagall who was talking at the podium.
Jerry couldn't help but sigh once again as he stared at the gloomy, severe, disinterested, and cruel Professor Snape who appeared to be a large bat on the teacher's long table. Actually, the issue is that the strategy is unable to adapt to the changes.
He no longer has any use for the Gryffindor Quidditch squad he previously created. He can only rethink a Slytherin approach using his head once more. But after giving it some thought, it turns out that becoming a Slytherin is actually not all that horrible.
At least Snape was exceedingly kind to the wizards in his own house despite being rude and mean to those from other houses, particularly Gryffindor.
Additionally, Snape is skilled in all forms of evil magic. He might have the chance to study a much more dangerous dark magic if he can get along with him.
"Harry Potter, Gryffindor!"
After speaking with the Sorting Hat at this precise time, the famous and eagerly anticipated Harry was going to be placed in Gryffindor. The sorting ritual was now formally over.
"I wasn't expecting you to be placed in Slytherin, Draco. We are truly destined to be together!"
When Jerry regained his sense, he turned to face Draco's group who were seated far away from him. He quickly approached, squeezed between them, and had a motion in his eyes. He then exuberantly placed his arms over his shoulders.
"Yes, destiny." Draco's body instantly froze, and he struggled to smile while his face twitched.
When he watched Jerry being put in Slytherin, he was on the verge of cursing aloud. How someone like Jerry could be put on a courteous and respectable Slytherin?
After the sorting was complete, he still suppressed his rage and moved Goyle and Crabbe away from Jerry due to the fighting prowess on the train, which had made them lose even if it was one against three of them.
It's not too late for a gentleman to avenge him after ten years. Once he has mastered magic, he must teach him of the repercussions if they offend a Malfoy.
"Draco, it appears like you have a great friendship with him!"
Draco and Jerry were now holding each other when the short-haired girl seated across from him staring at them with surprise.
"No doubt. We became good friends at that time after I met Draco, Goyle, and Crabbe on the train, am I right?" Squinting, Jerry made a small effort to get into Draco and Goyle's arms.
The three of them shook their bodies simultaneously, as if remembering some unpleasant recollections, and then grudgingly nodded.
"Hello, I'm Jerry Carmen."
"Pansy Parkinson!" Jerry extended his right hand in the direction of Pansy while removing it from Goyle's shoulder.
Pansy briefly froze before reaching out and giving Jerry a little shake. The friends Draco is willing to make must be excellent pure-blood family wizards, given his conceit. Why hasn't he heard of Jerry Carmen's name before?
"The banquet may now commence!"
Principal Dumbledore, who was seated in the center of the teachers' long table, slowly rose up at this point and made a loud announcement.
As Dumbledore's voice faded, Jerry discovered that the empty gold plates in front of him had been replaced by a variety of steaming and delicious treats. Steak, sausages, pork chops, lamb chops, roast beef, roast chicken, etc.
Additionally, the silver goblet contains a variety of drinks, including milk and fruit juice.
"I anticipate spending time in the future learning about this culinary magic."
Jerry's eyes lit up as he noticed these delights that had suddenly arrived, and he determined right away to include culinary magic in his quest to learn magic. He can significantly cut down on the amount of time he spends on cooking each day when he returns to the main world after mastering it.
He wouldn't let them go because. Furthermore, there are those magics that can handle housework.
Jerry didn't stop moving, planning all the magic he would learn in the future. He could already feel his stomach growling, like other starving wizards.
He wasn't sure if it was because he was very hungry or because the house elf's cuisine was so delicious. He finds today's cuisine to be very tasty.
"Pansy, how are you? I haven't seen you in a while. I see that you've cut your hair short." Draco moved to Pansy quietly while pretending to speak to her as Jerry was eating.
"Draco, you were the one who noticed it. Is it good?" Pansy's face turned reddish.
"Eh, it's quite attractive." When Jerry caught a glimpse of Draco walking away from him, he smiled to himself and didn't intervene.
Whether or not Draco is seated next to him doesn't matter. The impression he desired has already been realized.
"Aargh!" Jerry's ears suddenly pick up the screams of a young wizard as he finishes eating half a piece of steak.
He noticed the young wizards staring at him in terror as he looked up. When he turned his head in confusion, he noticed a horrifyingly tall ghost with empty eyes and a robe stained with blood sitting next to him.
"Hello! I'm Jerry Carmen, a freshman in Slytherin!" Jerry gave the ghost next to him a friendly nod as he grinned, gracefully set down the knife and fork in his hand, and talked to the ghost.
Jerry caught the ghost's attention as it turned its head to look at him. He had never before encountered a freshman who wasn't wary of him. His terrible face had a trace of appreciation.
"You may refer to me as Bloody Baron. I am a ghost from the Slytherin house. We'd love to have you join Slytherin!"
"Thanks!"
After a little conversation, Jerry resumed peacefully consuming the steak. He won't be scared by a ghost as an adult, especially if he's been through life and death and his colleagues have also passed away.
The majority of first-year Slytherins, including some young wizards in the second year, were awestruck by Jerry's lack of fear as he conversed with the ghost in such a beautiful and composed manner.
Chapter 35 "The Slytherin Common Room"
Bloody Baron is the ghost at Hogwarts that all young wizards are most scared of. When they encounter Bloody Baron alone, even some less brave wizards will be made to cry by his scary look.
In addition, Bloody Baron is the most potent ghost at Hogwarts. Bloody Baron's orders cannot be disobeyed, not even by the fearless Peeves.
At the moment, a blonde child sitting across from Goyle and Crabbe glanced at Jerry as he was dining on steak in style, tapped the person next to her, and asked in a low voice, "Millicent, do you think he's handsome?"
"Daphne, I still believe that Goyle is more attractive!"
After turning her head to look at Jerry, Millicent turned to face Goyle, who was standing opposite her.
In this way, the dinner resumed its vibrant mood following the spirits' little uproar. Everyone conversed with one another, introduced themselves, and enjoyed delectable food and beverages.
It differs from the stories shared by the young Muggle-born wizards seated at the table across from them about the fantastic things they did after learning they had been accepted to Hogwarts.
The majority of the conversations among the Slytherin wizards, to which Jerry belongs, center on issues that can reveal their identities, such as the money and social standing of their parents.
One of the old twenty-eight sacred families, Malfoy's family is undoubtedly the one with the highest status among them. Malfoy also serves as Hogwarts' school governor and is friendly with senior members of the Ministry of Magic.
There is also Blaise Zabini. Which Mrs. Zabini, his mother, was a stunning, well-known witch who wed seven times. The family is much wealthier than the Malfoy family because each husband will leave a sizable inheritance to the mother and son when they pass away.
Following dinner, Dumbledore stood up once more to give the young wizards some advice on how to prepare for the start of school.
Jerry summed it up. The main rule is that magic cannot be cast in the hallway between courses, and no one should go to the Forbidden Forest. In the second week, locate Madam Hooch to sign up if you are over the second grade and would like to take part in the Quidditch selection.
Most crucially, nobody is allowed to travel to the third floor's right corridor.
It was time to sing the school hymn after going over the safety measures. A long golden ribbon formed out of thin air when Dumbledore waved his wand, and it quickly began to twist and coil upward like a snake to produce the lyrics to the school song.
When the school song ended, the opening dinner officially ended.
—-
"Every first-year student follows me. I am Gemma Farley, your prefect. I'll take you to the lounge after that."
After dinner was finished, a girl dressed in a robe, around the age of 14 or 15, rose from the long Slytherin table and called out to the slightly perplexed freshmen. The young wizards surrounded the girl right away and followed her through the crowd as she made her way to the Slytherin lounge.
"Hey, the Slytherin common room isn't it up above the castle?"
Jerry blended in with the other young wizards, but he couldn't help but feel a little taken aback when he saw the prefect Gemma leading them down to the cellar.
He recalled that in the film, Harry and the others appeared to ascend some stairs that were moving mechanically before entering the lounge through the image of the Fat Lady.
"Our Slytherin's common room are absolutely the best of all. You'll find out after a time, I can assure you that. Gryffindor's and Ravenclaw's common rooms are in the tower on the eighth floor, while Hufflepuff's and our Slytherin's lounges are in the basement."
Jerry's questions were answered when Gemma, the group leader who was outlining some school safety measures, happened to mention where the lounge was located.
Jerry entered the dungeon from the right side of the grand marble staircase in the foyer and soon came across a stone wall after navigating the maze-like, dark hallways.
"Noble!"
After Gemma, the leader, uttered a secret phrase to the stone wall, a stone door suddenly materialized and gently opened on the initially barren and wet stone wall.
"The common room can only be accessed using a password. Every two weeks, the password will be changed, and the new one will be announced on the bulletin board in the lounge in advance. Keep in mind that 'Noble' is the password for these two weeks!"
Gemma spoke in a slightly snobbish and pompous manner to the young wizards as she explained. The youthful magicians happily nodded as well. Evidently, they were well familiar with Slytherin's password.
"As one would expect from a Slytherin!"
Jerry regarded everyone with their chins up and haughty looks on their faces. He had the strangest impression that these young Slytherin wizards were extremely adorable.
As you enter the common area after the little wizards, you're immediately drawn to the wall decorations made of animal skulls and the chained magic lamps that are flashing green.
He noticed that it emitted a lot of green hue at first. This Slytherin aesthetic is a bit bizarre.
However, it does have its benefits, not the least of which being that the Slytherin common room's fireplace, sofa, tables, and chairs are quite delicate and have numerous exquisite carvings.
A medieval tapestry that represents the renowned theme of the Slytherins of the period is also hanging on the wall across from the fireplace, and it is fascinating to look at.
Of course, Jerry is most interested in the enormous window that occupies two-thirds of the wall and is located directly across from the stone door in the common room.
He could see the Black Lake's bottom up close, as well as large squid and other lake species swimming lazily by the glass, giving him the impression that he had previously visited an aquarium.
It was out that the Slytherin common room was constructed beneath the Black Lake, with the water being separated from the lake using magical wizardry. Let the Slytherins who live here experience the suspense of submerging at any moment.
"Girls go to the right, boys to the room on the left. Your schedule ought to be in the room already. Come back later with any questions if you have one."
Gemma gave a final confession before departing as she observed the young wizards gazing in awe at the view outside from their position in front of the large window.
Although the view from the window is breathtaking, the little wizards left to find their own chambers after spending a considerable amount of time observing it. Jerry isn't an outlier.
He departed the common area before those young wizards and made his way to the boys' dorm on the left. He readily located his own hostel because each male dormitory had the name of the resident wizard written on the door.
"Gregory Goyle, Vincent Crabbe, Jerry Carmen, and Draco Malfoy."
Looking at the four names posted on the door of the dormitory, Jerry smiled helplessly, "I'm really destined to be with these children!"
Chapter 36 "New Plan"
Jerry pushed the door open and walked inside to see his bags waiting for him next to the bed closest to the entryway. It has green silk drapes and silver thread embroidery on the bed cover, and the bed is a classic four-poster bed.
Similar to the windows in the last room, those in this one could see outside and hear the soft sound of the water rippling on the lake. The sound of the gradually shifting lake water should be incredibly relaxing as you try to sleep.
It makes sense that the prefect just claimed that among the four houses, the Slytherin common room is the best.
"Don't worry, Crookshanks. I'll let you out right away."
Jerry quickly raised his hand to soothe him when he saw Crookshanks meowing at him from inside the cage on the table next to the bed. He also quickly moved forward to open the cage. Jerry never put Crookshanks in a cage while he was living in the orphanage since he is incredibly intelligent and can get food on his own.
When Jerry opened the cage, Crookshanks meowed in excitement before transforming into a flash of yellow lightning and sprinting toward the room's window.
"Stop, Crookshanks!"
Jerry suddenly recognized something and shouted at Crookshanks with a twitch in his heart. But it was already too late.
Crookshanks was peering out the window when he saw him. Diverse species of fish, both large and small, were swimming around with enthusiasm before they ran into the window's central invisible magic barrier. It feels as though your skull is slamming into a sheet of translucent glass.
As Crookshanks descended from the barrier, his already uninteresting visage appeared to grow much more uninteresting.
"I retract my previous statement that you were a smart cat." Despite being amused and powerless, Jerry covered his forehead when he noticed this.
Crookshanks' body is far more robust than that of a typical cat. It is clear that this impact is irrelevant.
The cat appeared to start to question its own existence as it stood up once more in a state of mild uncertainty, sat down on the window, used its paws to scratch the invisible magic barrier, and cocked its head to gaze at the fish swimming outside.
When Jerry saw this, he lost interest in it and instead began packing his bags and picking up the class schedule from the table. There were some recognizable yells and curses coming through the room's door at this point. Draco and the others were the ones who noticed Jerry's name at the door.
"Hello!" Jerry gave a warm welcome to the Malfoy group as they came in through the door.
He still believes that the connection between them can be somewhat relaxed, given that they are both Slytherins and share a room.
"I'll tell you right now that I don't fear you. The director of Hogwarts is my father. I will urge my father to kick you out if you dare to hurt me once more. Wizards should fight using magic. We should use magic to fight fairly once we've learned it well!"
It was clear that Draco had made a decision outside. As soon as he opened the door and entered the room, he took Goyle and Crabbe and had them stand five meters apart from Jerry while yelling angrily.
"I truly don't like to use violence, so no problem there. You won't get anything from me as long as you don't try to provoke me." Jerry accepted without hesitation as he shrugged.
The three eventually exhaled with relief after realizing this. Only three of them were under the age of eleven.
The three from the first book were on the train when Ron's mouse bit them, causing them to flee in fear. It is obvious that they are not as fearless as they first appear to be.
The three no longer feared Jerry as much after formally agreeing to live in peace and started packing their personal belongings and beds one by one.
—-
When the three of them went to bed at night, Jerry silently got up and left the room with the magic book. He didn't use up too much energy this day, thanks to his physical health, unlike other young wizards who were worn out after it.
Just that he was completely unprepared for the accident of being sent to Slytherin. Everything that was previously planned must thus be abandoned, and new plans must be made.
In contrast to Gryffindor, in the house of Slytherin, he must be superb, excellent in all respects, and crushingly excellent if he wants to get the highest benefits conceivable.
Similar to Voldemort when he was a young kid.
Even though he was a half-blood and was also born in a Muggle orphanage, Voldemort managed to flourish in the Slytherin house, where family history and bloodlines were highly valued. As a result, he came to be revered by all Slytherins. Because he is simply too good.
Although he was born into poverty, Voldemort was incredibly clever and attended Hogwarts when he was a student. His parents passed away, yet he remained wise and brave. He was a model student for the school. He had a courteous, reserved, and ravenous air about him. Almost everyone thinks highly of him.
The Dean of Slytherin at the time, Slughorn, adored him so much that he even informed him about the illegal Horcruxes he inquired about.
Jerry looks up to Voldemort because he wants to learn as much magic as he can at Hogwarts. He just won't be able to because of his limited capacity for learning. It's not awful to be ranked in the middle level, especially considering that his grades dominate the entire grade.
He therefore intends to modify his approach and employ a significant number of red stars in order to hasten the learning process. His first intention was to utilize red stars as frequently as possible to keep track of time in the wizarding community and to use them to learn some crucial spells.
He must now use lots of red stars to outperform everyone in every topic and become the top student if he wants to learn from Voldemort. He may only enter Slytherin in this manner. He must first capture Snape's attention. He won't be in Snape's eyes if he isn't good enough.
After entering the Slytherin common room, Jerry sat down on the sofa in the light of the lounge's green lamp, activated the "Refreshing" ability, opened the book, and started to memorize the "History of Magic" that would be discussed tomorrow.
Chapter 37 "Starting The Day"
The schedule indicated that Slytherin had just one class on the first day, History of Magic, which was held in the afternoon with Ravenclaw pupils. The instructor is Professor Cuthbert Binns, and the classroom is upstairs.
The following day at noon, following lunch on the first floor's Great Hall. Jerry made his way up the opulent marble staircase to the second floor's History of Magic classroom alongside other young Slytherin wizards.
Hermione, who belonged to Gryffindor, was also introduced to Jerry during the meal. Jerry was placed in Slytherin, but Hermione claimed that despite being in Slytherin, he was still her best friend. She expressed disappointment that Jerry was not placed in Gryffindor.
The majority of the Slytherin and Ravenclaw wizards in the class were already collapsing under Professor Binns' hypnotic voice as he spoke about the history of magic in his weak, dragging voice.
There was one wizard, though, who stood out significantly from the others. He sat in the front row with a straight back and piercing eyes. The voice of Professor Binns didn't seem to have any effect on him.
He was the same Jerry who occasionally flipped on "Refreshing."
Two to three hours passed during a History of Magic session, and Jerry was unable to keep turning on "Refreshing" due to the cognitive load it would place on him.
For some of the textbook material, he disabled "Refreshing," and when Professor Binns added more material to his lectures, he enabled "Refreshing" for memory retention.
The history of magic lesson does not teach any magic knowledge or spells. However it is not as useless as other young wizards claimed. But if you put forth the effort to learn them, you'll discover that these magical histories contain a wealth of information about the wizarding world.
Jerry's knowledge of the wizarding realm is constrained to a few brief, extremely biased videos and movies. In Professor Binns' history of magic class, the wizarding world was presented to the student in a more realistic and thorough way.
He can subsequently use this to obtain magic knowledge, which is also highly valuable. It will be quite challenging, just like learning the language, characters, and a lot of specific knowledge and culture of a completely foreign country. But once you are familiar with the entirety of the nation's history, learning is far easier.
This may be the reason why every small wizard at Hogwarts believes that History of Magic is the most pointless course, despite the fact that it is required for every grade.
"Okay, that concludes the lesson for today. Let's now begin to ask questions. Does anyone have any knowledge of Emeric the Evil that I just mentioned?"
When it was time to end the class, Professor Binns started his customary entrance into the question and answer session. In general, he expresses no optimism for this session due to the fact that few of the young wizards have the answer as most of them have only recently awakened.
He doesn't mind, though, as this is how his class has always been.
Sure enough, as they heard Professor Binns' query, the sleepy-eyed young wizards started to stare at one another.
Jerry in the first row raised his hand as Professor Binns was about to declare the end of class.
"What's your name, boy?"
"Jerry Carmen!" Jerry got up and replied.
"So now it's up to you to respond to the question!" Professor Binns had a surprised expression on his face.
After Jerry coughed and the young wizards all turned to look at him, he started to talk.
"Emeric the Evil was a short-lived wizard with great power. Early in the Middle Ages, he rose to become the master of the Elder Wand and unleashed fear across southern England. He was fighting Egbert the Egregious in a duel."
The Elder Wand was referenced by Professor Binns in the first-grade History of Magic lecture, as you can see.
"Very good, three points for Slytherin!" Professor Binns didn't expect that what he said in class would be repeated verbatim by this student. This kind of situation is very rare.
"Mr. Carmen, can you say something about Uric?"
"Uric the Oddball is a famous medieval wizard known for his eccentric behavior, including sleeping in a room with more than fifty pet birds and donning a jellyfish as a hat. He frequently serves as the punchline in jokes about wizards because he is regarded as one of history's craziest wizards."
Jerry kept reciting the information that had been presented in the class word for word.
"Jerry, you have one of the greatest memories of any kids I've ever encountered. Slytherin receives three more points!" Those Slytherin wizards who weren't initially clear clapped joyfully as Professor Binns' voice grew cheerful.
Professor McGonagall gave a thorough explanation of the value of points when Harry first arrived at Hogwarts Castle yesterday. The Academy Cup, which can only be earned with credits, is the ultimate distinction for Hogwarts wizards.
Wizards from Slytherin must be delighted to see that Jerry gained six Slytherin points in his first class.
Jerry initially made an excellent first impression on the first-year Slytherins at the opening banquet yesterday when he was able to talk tactfully and coolly with the fearsome Bloody Baron.
Of course, except for Draco and the others.
Jerry's heroism is embodied in his ability to speak politely and calmly with the terrible Bloody Baron, and his wisdom is embodied in his ability to give Slytherin six points in magic history class.
Slytherins are conceited, but as long as there are no issues with your bloodline, the more exceptional you are, the more well-liked you will be.
We all know that if you can be placed in the Slytherin house at the ceremony of sorting, there must be no issues with your lineage. Jerry was clearly moved by the pride of the Slytherin wizards after the History of Magic class ended and started interacting with them.
Daphne Greengrass, a young, blond witch, was the most enthused of them all.
Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson was in the first period of the second day's morning. Professor Quirrell, who had his hair wrapped like a rice dumpling and had a strong garlic odor, was the instructor. In class, he frequently stammered. Jerry, however, dared not to underrate this Professor Quirrell.
Because he was aware that Professor Quirrell, a Ravenclaw native, was surely not frail. If not, it would be impossible to get inside Gringotts and steal the Sorcerer's Stone.
In addition, Voldemort, the world's greatest villain, is concealed on the back of his head.
In actuality, despite the feigned cowardice of this lecturer, paying close attention to the lectures he gave is not pointless. Jerry did gain a better comprehension of the magic spells in the textbook after at least one class.
Chapter 38 "Hermione's Invitation"
The magic spell does not imply that once you learn it, you can use it to your fullest potential. Jerry can only use it to light cigarettes for now, just like a regular flame spell, but Dumbledore can use it to burn thousands of corpses to death.
On the other hand, Dumbledore has much more magic power than Jerry does, and more significantly, he has a much deeper grasp of the Fire Spell than other wizards do.
Jerry obviously had no chance to earn points because Professor Quirrell didn't ask any questions throughout the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
But he is not in a hurry. The final objective is to learn magic so he may get stronger. With so many options, gaining points to raise one's reputation can be done gradually.
Jerry took herbology, astronomy, charms, and transfiguration over the following few days.
He frequently activated the "Refreshing" ability during class because he did so frequently at night to swiftly recall and learn the material in the magic books.
As a result, he could always tell when Professor Sprout asked about the names of each herbal remedy and their varied properties in the herbology class.
He is very adept at recognizing any stars and constellations in astronomy class.
He was able to effectively release the relevant magic from the textbook during charm class, when other young wizards were still studying the theory of spells. He used it really skillfully despite the fact that the power and effect were not enormous.
Regarding the transfiguration lesson, towards the conclusion of the lecture, Professor McGonagall instructed everyone to practice turning a match into a needle. Jerry completed the task in less than ten seconds after Professor McGonagall's explanation, becoming the first student to successfully transform a match into a silver needle.
Jerry had initially made a very excellent impression on all the teachers and had scored more than 20 points for Slytherin in just four days because of this. He established a reputation for himself in numerous houses.
Jerry, in particular, differs from Hermione. Any wizard who contacts him will notice that while he is very good, he is not as haughty and difficult to get along with as other Slytherins. This is because he has an adult soul.
He is quite modest, laid-back, and occasionally amusing with you.
The young wizards from the other three houses who had contacted him did not feel overly envious of him, but rather somewhat admired him. This also helped him collect more than 20 points for Slytherin.
Because no one can now gain credits comparable to Jerry's, with the exception of Hermione, a Gryffindor student.
Time moved on to Friday. On Friday, there are only classes for the first half of the day. It is the Dean of Slytherin's Potions class, Professor Snape's class. Additionally, Slytherin and Gryffindor are taking classes together for the first time.
Those previous classes were either with Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, and none of the lessons were with Gryffindor.
The Slytherin common room and the Potions classroom are both in the basement. The classroom, especially the glass jars positioned along the walls and filled with diverse animal specimens, has a somewhat dismal feel due to the lack of sunlight throughout the entire year.
"Jerry, you arrived early!"
"Hermione, you're also quite early."
Jerry is accustomed to waking early, so he arrived at the Potions lesson right after breakfast. He was the first wizard to enter the classroom, and Hermione typically enters first in every class, so the two just so happened to cross paths.
They naturally sat together and talked because no one else had yet arrived. They didn't attend their regular lessons together because they were sent to separate houses rather than their normal ones. Unless you speak briefly throughout meals.
Hermione is an excellent student who studies during her free time, while Jerry constantly consumes different magical knowledge to increase his strength.
"Are you available this weekend, Jerry? Why don't we both visit the library?" Hermione looked at Jerry with some expectation.
During the summer break, she had memorized the first-grade textbooks. Hermione learned that Hogwarts had a library and that it included a lot of magic books after asking prefect Percy. So, on Friday, when she had nothing planned, she wanted to look at it.
She recently met Jerry, who enjoys reading as well. She sent him an invitation to visit the library with her, and Jerry's eyes brightened up at the mention of a library.
He had been busy memorizing "History of Magic," "A Thousand Miraculous Herbs and Fungi," and "Magic Potions and Potions" throughout the previous two days, so he really hadn't had time to think about visiting the Hogwarts library.
"Do you know where the library is?"
"It's on the second floor of the castle, in the corridor on the far right. I've already asked it in advance." Hermione responded right away.
"All right, let's head there on Saturday morning early!" Jerry accepted Hermione's request with a nod.
Slytherin and the other Gryffindor wizards entered the Potions class one by one as Jerry was conversing with Hermione. Among them, Harry and Ron were seated across from Hermione and joined in on their conversation.
The topic of conversation also changed at this point from magical knowledge to recent magical occurrences at Hogwarts.
The two of them were visibly repulsed by Hermione's occasional lecturing and "show off." Hermione specifically brought up the scandalous incident of the two receiving a lecture from Professor McGonagall for arriving late to Transfiguration class.
They were more intrigued by Jerry's comment about the wide windows in the Slytherin common room that allowed them to glimpse the panorama at the lake's bottom.
"Jerry, as a Slytherin, I must advise you that it is not a good idea to come into contact with some dirty blood and traitors, as you will be negatively impacted."
An arrogant and slightly bitter voice suddenly rang in Jerry's ears at this point. Jerry cocked his head to the side. It turned out to be Daphne, the Slytherin witch with blond hair, with her best friend Millicent, who was sitting next to her.
Jerry's good looks, his unwavering demeanor in the face of the Bloody Baron at the school's opening banquet, and his later success in a variety of fields intrigued Daphne. Even her fancies about a real Slytherin are satisfied by it.
It's unfortunate that Jerry seems to like his time alone. On occasion, when she approaches him to speak with him, he will smile charmingly and have a little conversation with her before leaving to read a book.
She felt very fine even though Jerry was in the common room quietly reading a book. She was unhappy when she walked into the classroom just now and saw Jerry laughing and joking with someone from Gryffindor.
The three from Gryffindors are Harry, a prominent wizard who should have joined Slytherin but chose Gryffindor instead, a lowly Mudblood, and a Weasley.
Chapter 39 "Charm"
Jerry was shocked to hear what Daphne stated next to him. He didn't believe Daphne had any issues, though. After all, Daphne's opinions appeared reasonable for a Slytherin.
Because of the kind of upbringing and environment she had when she was a young child. Jerry is not a typical Slytherin and does not share their decadent ideologies.
The most significant factor in a person's strength is his or her own strength. It has nothing to do with the purity of his or her ancestry. After all, exterior things are just that—external. You set the rules as long as you are powerful enough to do so.
"Daphne, no one can influence me. I, Jerry Carmen, as a Slytherin, will definitely become the most powerful wizard in this world." Jerry looked at Daphne firmly, exuding a breathtaking aura.
Daphne was taken aback when she saw this. The dissatisfaction in her eyes had just now disappeared, and what was left was full of admiration.
"My goodness…"
If he had responded to Daphne at this point, arguing that the pure blood theory is false and other things, he would have been speaking as a Slytherin. It would undoubtedly spark a debate among his peers.
But it wouldn't be in his heart to clearly demarcate a line with Hermione and others. Additionally, Hermione could speak with him, follow his development, and advance with him throughout the entire academy.
Additionally, Dumbledore will certainly benefit much from a positive connection with Harry.
You see, such a good Slytherin is prepared to make friends with Gryffindors and young Muggle-born wizards and has no prejudice against blood. Something that is not what Dumbledore had expected.
Otherwise, if Dumbledore treats him as the second Voldemort, it will be a bit troublesome.
"Jerry, the best wizard is not you, but me!" At this moment, Hermione replied somewhat unconvinced.
Harry and Ron beside Hermione also looked at Jerry with a look of admiration.
"Hmph, how can you compete with Jerry?" Daphne, at the side, immediately taunted Hermione.
The Potions class was now completely silent, and not even the sound of a needle could be heard. It turned out that Professor Snape had already arrived at the Potions classroom door. He was clothed in a black robe and had a face that would make a three-year-old cry.
Which professor at Hogwarts scares the young wizards the most? Neither the most imposing Dumbledore, who is regarded as the greatest wizard of all time, nor the strictest Professor McGonagall in the school.
But it was Professor Snape. He had a gloomy expression the entire day and appeared as though he would cast the most dreadful and horrible black magic on you at the slightest provocation.
Even the Slytherin wizards were horrified upon seeing their dean.
Snape approached the podium like a giant bat, holding a wand in one hand and a book on potions in the other. He pulled out a list of names, just like other lecturers.
But as soon as he caught sight of Harry, he stopped abruptly, turned to face him, shot the boy a cold glare, and said in a low voice, "Harry Potter, this is our newcomer, a well-known character."
The people in the rear, including Draco, covered their mouths while laughing. Snape spoke and continued.
He paused once more and said, with a hint of appreciation, as he turned to face Jerry Carmen, "Outstanding. They began the semester with more than 20 points, which is good when compared to some students."
You must be aware that Hermione currently has just as many points as he does. Simply put, Hermione wins points for Gryffindor, thus Snape ignores her name when he says it.
When Draco heard Jerry being complimented, who had been laughing at Harry being mocked by Snape, he immediately became as green as the lights in the Slytherin common room.
After setting the list of names aside, Snape presented the topic of potions to the group of young wizards gathered in the classroom.
It is best to say that individuals who are unable to learn this subject are fools because it is amazing and could be really useful.
After the introductions, Snape launched into a series of incisive questions regarding the science of potions directed at Harry.
Harry cannot learn the challenging book "Magic Potions and Potions" before the start of school because he is not Hermione or a typical young wizard. He continued to make fun of Harry in this way.
Jerry, who had foreseen the circumstance, couldn't help but feel a moment of sympathy for Harry.
Harry would have had innumerable grievances and grown a strong heart if he hadn't lived at his aunt's house ever since he was a young child. He would probably be afraid and cry right now if young wizards took his position because of Snape.
In reality, Jerry understood that the reason Snape was willing to risk his life to save Harry was that Harry was Lily's child, who was Snape's favorite person.
It was difficult for Snape not to despise Harry because of his Gryffindor affiliation and striking resemblance to his former enemy James in appearance. Snape probably wouldn't act in the same manner if Harry had joined the Slytherins.
"Jerry Carmen, please answer to the brief questions right now."
After some mocking, Snape turned to stare at Harry, whose green eyes matched Lily's, stopped, and then gave Jerry the question while ignoring Hermione, who was standing close to Harry.
Jerry sighed helplessly but got to his feet anyway. He actually doesn't want to be involved right now. After all, Hermione's hands are lifted so high, and Harry is obviously feeling rather terrible.
He had to get to his feet and provide an honest response because Snape had already called his name immediately.
"A potent sleeping aid that contains wormwood and narcissus root powder is similar to a dose of Draught of Living Death. Coprolites, which are goat stomach stones, have a potent cleansing effect. The aconite is the same species as chamaejasma, and the two are referred to as an "aconitum" jointly."
"Ten points for Slytherin." Snape nodded in satisfaction, and the Slytherin wizard suddenly cheered.
Even Goyle and Crabbe couldn't hold back their applause, but they were finally stopped by Draco's stare.
"Add ten points directly, as expected of you, Professor Snape!" Snape partiality made Jerry feel a little embarrassed.
Chapter 40 "The Half-Blood Prince's Book"
"Moreover, Potter. Gryffindor will lose a point for recently not answering my question."
Snape gave one last mention before breaking the young wizards off into groups. Harry was enraged, but he was powerless. Jerry was forced to soothe him after seeing this by giving him a touch on the shoulder through Hermione.
Who made your father bully others at school all the time? Now that your father is gone, all he has left to do is take out his resentment on you. This is perhaps referred to as the son inheriting the family business.
When grouping, Jerry and Hermione were put into a group and worked together to create a potion for curing boils since the number of Gryffindors was somewhat great, the number of Slytherins was relatively little, and they were all odd numbers.
The magic book "Magic Potions & Potions" covers a total of seven different types of potion refining methods, in addition to thoroughly outlining the procedures, precautions, and details of basic potion refining.
Antidote, a treatment potion, an amnesia potion, a herbicide, a sleeping potion, a swelling potion, and an awakening potion are among them.
Following the distribution, Snape first described the complete potion-making process before showing how to make a bottle on his own.
Actually, making potions is a lot like the chemical experiments Jerry did in school in his past incarnation. They were meticulously made using numerous tools, including little medicine bottles and scales, in accordance with the protocol.
The most crucial aspects of brewing potions are care and rigor.
Contrary to typical chemical studies, the modulation can be completed with the desired outcomes by following the procedures. If you simply follow the instructions for refining potions, you will produce a puddle of useless concoction.
To create an accurate and powerful magic potion, it is also required to work with the body's natural magical forces. Finally, the potion must be finished with a magic wand.
Even if you obtain the ingredients and manufacturing techniques for making potions, if you are merely a Muggle without magic power, you will not be able to successfully create the related potions.
"Moronic, do you not have eyes? What are you doing to that nettle that has dried out?"
"It's a crushed snake fang, you idiot. Do you know what crushed means?"
Snape dragged his long, black cloak and paced back and forth in the classroom as the young wizards started to make the potion as instructed.
However, his scolding almost never stopped. He rained words down onto all the young wizards he passed. Even Slytherin's wizards are not an exception. They will still receive words for their errors.
He didn't nod in approval or give them praise until he reached Jerry and Hermione's group.
Jerry's body and mind are at their best right now because he has activated the "Refreshing" ability. Making the simplest potion is, of course, no problem when working with Hermione, who is a very skilled potion maker.
"It's done!"
Shortly after Snape left, Jerry and Hermione could see pink smoke rising from the cauldron in front of them, indicating that the Cure for Boils potion had been successfully made.
"Oops!"
The following group, which included Neville and Seamus, screamed right then and there. For some reason, their cauldron began to leak. The potion was then spilled, and a sudden plume of dense, acidic green smoke erupted.
Jerry's five senses and quick reactions came from being rejuvenated. He raised their buttocks and kicked them in a row as soon as he spotted an accident on Neville and Seamus' side.
He quickly turned around, hugged Hermione, and leaped onto the stool next to him to prevent them from being extremely corrosive. He booted Neville and Seamus away with soft strength so they wouldn't be sprayed by the green smoke.
The potion was still sprayed on the shoes, and several holes had burned out of them when Harry and Ron were on Neville's opposite side. It is clear that this potion's preparation is not entirely secure. This is merely the most basic potion preparation, and a mistake in the experiment could cost someone their life.
It occurs to him that the fact that there are so few experts in potion science in the wizarding community may have a significant impact on the risk associated with making potions.
Without talent, making potions would not only fail, wasting a lot of expensive raw materials, but also putting your own life at risk.
The potion and green smoke that had splattered on the ground were removed by Snape after he approached with a growl and waved his wand.
"You likely added the porcupine quill without taking the cauldron off of the flames, don't you?"
Seamus and Neville stood up from the floor without saying anything, clearly agreeing.
"Start over from the beginning. Gryffindor will be penalized one point for your stupid actions."
Snape nodded in approval as he turned to face Jerry after finishing, "You took action right away. The two of them would have left for the infirmary right now if it weren't for you. Three points for Slytherin."
When Jerry and Hermione's potion appeared on the table after he had finished speaking, his eyes immediately glowed.
"You prepared it so rapidly. That's good. It's almost flawless. It's an excellent potion. You seem to have a lot of skill with potions. Slytherin receives three more points."
"Ahem, professor. Hermione and I created the potion." Jerry had no choice but to remind Snape after observing his clear disregard for Hermione.
"Well then, Gryffindor will also gain three points." Snape said, giving Hermione a quick look.
He then resumed his patrol of the classroom after finishing. But as he approached Harry and Ron, he abruptly stopped again and turned to face Harry, who was preparing tentacled slugs.
"Why didn't you warn Neville against including porcupine quills? Do you believe it's appropriate for him to reveal to you any errors he made? Another one point taken off from Gryffindor." Harry instantly became petrified.
When potions class was completed, and the young wizards headed to the theater for supper, Jerry briefly withdrew from the group under the guise of returning to his hostel.
Jerry approached the Potions classroom door once more after making sure Snape had gone back to his office in the basement by carefully scanning the hallway there.
"Alohomora!" Jerry pushed the classroom door open after casting an unlocking charm on it and entered.
He carefully circled around in the classroom and then immediately focused on the podium-side locker. Snape kept various materials for potions that were frequently used in class in the locker.
Jerry ultimately located what he was looking for on the bottom layer of the locker after opening it and searching through it. It was a used copy of the sixth-grade potion textbook "Advanced Potion Making."
A line of handwritten autographs could be seen in his eyes as he turned to the book's first page.
'This book belongs to the Half-Blood Prince.'
