Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King

"Professor, isn't there support for campus entrepreneurship this year? Hannah is one of them, and she wants to develop some magical delicacies."

"It's just that she's encountered some trouble now, so I wanted to ask you to take a look and help."

Hearing Neville say this, Sebastian immediately recalled the way Hannah Abbott had approached him to apply for campus entrepreneurship.

The little girl was shy and timid, and the first thing she said was that she wanted to rent the Hogwarts kitchen, which was the only request from the student body to rent the kitchen.

For this reason, Sebastian specifically went to the kitchen to give the house-elves a heads-up, asking them to prepare a separate stove for Hannah.

In addition, he also told the elves not to disturb Hannah while she was working, and only provide help when she needed it.

However, from the beginning of the semester until now, Sebastian had not seen the little girl at the students' campus stalls.

He had thought that Hannah Abbott had given up. After all, many students had applied for entrepreneurship at the beginning, but there were always various problems in the process, and not many had persisted until now.

So it turned out that the little girl had encountered trouble, so she didn't set up a stall.

Being able to persevere until now without giving up, this kind of temperament is really good.

"Then where is Miss Abbott? Why didn't she come?" Sebastian asked gently.

Hearing this, Neville scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Professor, Hannah is currently practicing in the kitchen. I secretly came to find you alone. Hannah doesn't know."

"I really can't bear to see her in such a difficult situation."

"Oh—is that so." Sebastian drawled, looking at Neville with a teasing smile.

"Professor, Hannah once consulted Professor Sprout, but Professor Sprout said that her specialty is Herbology, and she doesn't know much about making magical delicacies."

Neville continued, "I inquired around and heard from the house-elves that you used to go to the kitchen to make delicacies, so I think you can definitely help."

In Neville's eyes, Sebastian was synonymous with omnipotence, and this kind of small matter would definitely not be difficult for him.

Speaking of magical delicacies, the first thing Sebastian thought of was various delicious magical candies.

For example, Chocolate Frogs that can jump around like real frogs, Fizzing Whizbees that can make people float briefly off the ground after taking a bite, Bubble Juice that can blow bubbles that last for days in the air, and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans that can make people taste different flavors.

Speaking of which, the various joke candies developed by Fred and George in the original book, such as Canary Creams, Ton-Tongue Toffee, and Nosebleed Nougat, also belong to the category of magical delicacies.

In this way, Sebastian understood why Neville and Hannah were together.

Making magical delicacies cannot be separated from various magical herbs, and as a Herbology teaching assistant, Neville's herb knowledge far exceeds most of his peers.

The two of them often attend classes together, often communicate together, and now that Neville is confident, sunny, and enthusiastic, it is too normal for Hannah Abbott to invite Neville to help.

But then again, magic related to food is relatively uncommon in the magical world, and it is difficult to achieve anything in this area unless you specialize in research.

After all, no matter which magic school it is, there are no related courses.

To be honest, Sebastian hadn't done any research in this area either.

But if the little girl just wants to make some simple things like Fizzing Whizbees and Ton-Tongue Toffee, he can still give some pointers with his knowledge of Alchemy and Potions.

Thinking of this, Sebastian stood up and said to Neville, "What are we waiting for? Let's go help your fri—friend."

He hung a 'Out on Business' sign on the door of his office, and then led Neville all the way down the castle.

Walking on the road, Sebastian casually chatted, "Neville, have you gained some weight recently?"

He remembered clearly that when he was practicing the Patronus Charm last year, Neville was very hardworking, and he had lost a lot of weight, completely different from his first and second year self.

When the school started this year, he was still a thin and tall young man. How come his face has become round again after two months.

Hearing Sebastian's question, Neville blushed rarely, and stammered.

"Maybe...because I've been eating a little too much recently, so I've gained some weight."

With this little expression and these stammering words, Sebastian didn't need to guess to know that there was something fishy going on.

Most likely, the food made by Hannah Abbott was all wiped out by Neville.

He didn't continue to tease Neville, but smiled slightly and continued to walk down with him.

Neville breathed a slight sigh of relief. He could still feel the teasing in the professor's smile.

It's just that he can't tell what his feelings for Hannah are.

He can only say that it is very comfortable and relaxing to be with her, and that her craftsmanship is very good and the food she makes is very delicious.

All the way down, the two quickly arrived at the Hogwarts kitchen.

As soon as he entered the door, Sebastian saw Hermione chatting with the house-elf Winky, and Ron, who was following closely beside her.

In front of a stove not far away, Hannah Abbott was focusing on making food.

Sebastian first greeted Hermione and Ron, and then walked towards Hannah Abbott with Neville.

A row of neat glass bottles was placed on the table, and the colorful juice in the bottles refracted a rainbow-like light under the illumination of the magic lamp.

Hannah stood in front of the stove, one hand tightly holding the handle of a small copper pot, and the other hand slowly stirring the tumbling liquid inside.

It was a pot of thick honey syrup, and the sweet aroma permeated the air, with a bit of gentle citrus and peach fragrance.

Her eyes were extremely focused, as if the world only had this pot of syrup, and she didn't notice the arrival of Sebastian and Neville at all.

Neville took a step forward, wanting to remind Hannah, but before he could speak, he was stopped by Sebastian.

Sebastian put a finger in front of his mouth, signaling Neville not to make a sound.

After all, the little girl's attention was too focused, and Sebastian couldn't bear to disturb her at all.

In addition, he also wanted to see what the little girl's problem was, and why she had not succeeded all this time.

"Almost there," Hannah muttered to herself, quickly took a glass bottle from the side, took out a spoonful of crystal powder, and sprinkled it into the pot.

The moment the powder entered the pot, the syrup made a gentle hum, as if countless tiny notes were dancing in it.

Sebastian nodded. Those were the powder of Sonorus flowers. It seemed that the little girl wanted to make a candy related to sound.

It wasn't until the syrup in the pot calmed down that Hannah carefully scooped the syrup into a row of hemispherical molds, ensuring that every drop perfectly filled them.

Then, she picked up a slender wand and tapped each mold lightly, while chanting a spell in her mouth.

The syrup cooled down and turned into crystal clear candies.

Hannah picked up a candy and put it in her mouth, and soon her brows furrowed.

"Ah...failed again."
