Hogwarts in the shadows

As Hephis's body grew rapidly, it also consumed energy crazily.

So he is eating almost all the time now.

He didn't know how many of those nutritional potions he had taken.

Fortunately, it was Momo who was cooking. If it was Fulla, she would probably be driven crazy by her bottomless appetite.

Hephis carefully felt the changes in his body.

The magic power in his body has begun to flow in an orderly manner, increasing with every second.

And he was already able to perform some simple magic.

Not only that, he can actually output 100% of his magic power without a wand.

Hephis guessed that this might be related to the fact that when he was reborn into Nirvana, his wand turned into ashes along with him.

What surprised him even more was that he found that his relationship with the Shadow Fruit had undergone subtle changes.

In the past, he always felt that the Shadow Fruit was a foreign object living in his body.

His body is like a transit station for the Shadow Fruit.

But now, he could clearly feel the power of the Shadow Fruit and his magic power blending together and surging in his body.

From then on, the ability to control shadows was no longer the power of the devil fruit, but an ability that belonged exclusively to him.

"It's not a good idea for him to eat like this all the time! Aren't you a Potions Master, Snape? Think of a solution!" Flora looked at Snape mischievously.

Snape sighed helplessly, "I have used all the potions I have now, but it is still not enough for his physical growth rate."

He raised his head and looked at Fulla with an expression that said "ask me quickly".

Snape pursed his lips and said, "Fula, do you have any good ideas?"

Hearing this, Fulla's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of teasing on her face.

"Ah! I only know how to bake bread. I have forgotten everything about potions."

"I made a slip of the tongue that day," Snape paused and added, "Baking bread is also a way to exercise your control over the temperature."

Flora looked at him in surprise. Is this something Snape could say?

If he hadn't been here for the past two days and hadn't gone out.

She really would have thought that this was some imposter who had drunk Polyjuice Potion and was impersonating Snape.

"Although the potion can supplement some nutrients, there is actually a more direct method for his abnormal growth rate."

A mischievous smile appeared on Fulla's face.

Snape asked eagerly, "What method?"

Fula smiled leisurely, "It's very simple, just keep letting him eat."

Snape's face froze. "Fula, just tell me what method you have! I owe you another favor."

"Just prepare some high-energy, high-nutrition food for him."

Fula put away her joking thoughts and said, "I've already told Momo to prepare it."

"Thank you, Fulla."

Although Snape is a master of potions, he can't help but feel powerless when faced with a problem that cannot be solved by potions.

Not long after, Momo came in with a large plate of barbecue.

The meat was cut into very small pieces, just right for Hephis's mouth. He ate one piece at a time.

However, the color of the meat was extremely strange, showing a strange green color.

Snape looked at the plate of green meat and frowned slightly.

"Momo, explain it to me." Fulla said.

"Yes, Master." Momo responded respectfully.

"Professor Snape, young master." Momo said, pointing at the meat on the plate.

"This is the meat of the Gelada dolphin. Although the quality of the meat is not very good, it is very popular among the Indonesian shaman community."

Momo used a knife to cut off one-tenth of the already small piece of meat.

"They usually only need a small piece like this to meet their food needs for the entire day."

"Although the meat of the gecko is not delicious, it is the most suitable food for your current condition." Fulla looked at Hephis this time.

Hephis gave a bright smile as a response.

He started eating without hesitation.

The meat quality is really bad, the taste is a bit sour and bitter, and it is very, very tough to chew.

Even if Momo added a lot of sugar when cooking, it couldn't cover up the bitter taste of the meat itself.

Hephis ate several pieces in a row and finally felt full.

Snape was observing Hephesus silently from the side, and was relieved when he saw that he had no abnormal reaction.

"Fula, thank you. In the days to come, I'm afraid I can only eat geladon pig meat." Hephis said directly.

Fulla's eyes widened as she looked at the baby in front of her in disbelief, "Ah! You...you can speak?"

"I'm Hephes." Hephes ignored Snape's look that was trying to stop him and revealed his identity frankly.

"You...you are Hephis? How could you..." Fulla's words were full of confusion.

"Oh! It's hard to put it into words!" A trace of helplessness emerged on Hephes' baby-like face.

"No wonder Snape..." Vera seemed to understand something, but swallowed the words back.

Snape looked at Fulla solemnly at this moment, "Ffula, I hope you can keep this matter a secret."

"No need for your instructions." Fulla looked at Snape mischievously, "Do you want to make an unbreakable oath?"

"Of course not." Hephis interrupted quickly.

"The professor thought of you, Fulla, first when I was in trouble. This is enough to prove his trust in you."

"But he never told me your true identity." Fla said slowly.

"Fula, you see I have become so small. After all, this involves my privacy." Hephis paused and continued.

"And the reason I'm telling you now is because the professor and I discussed this last night, and he doesn't want to hide it from you."

"Really?" Fulla asked in surprise.

"Hephaestus." Snape said in a deep voice.

Their two voices rang out almost at the same time.

"Uh... I'm full. I'm a little sleepy now. How about you go out for a walk?" Hephis suggested.

Hephis and Fulla, they looked at Snape at the same time.

Snape looked at Hephes with some toothache, offering random suggestions.

Although he could refuse, after all, he was staying at Flora's house, and it would be unreasonable if he didn't even give her a little face.

"Fla, let Hephis take a rest! Do you have time to take me around?" Snape invited Fla.

"Actually, you don't want to...Okay, no problem." Fulla was slightly stunned, then she showed a bright smile.

Hephis looked at the two people leaving and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was impossible to sleep.

Maybe it’s because I have plenty of energy. I haven’t felt sleepy at all since last night.

This is a good time to carefully feel the changes in your body.
