Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Unlike the young Hufflepuff depicted in various books, the Hufflepuff that appeared before him was a kind old woman.

She was a little overweight and wore a simple but neat robe and a clean white apron.

Her silver hair was tied into a loose bun at the back of her head, with a few strands falling around her ears, making her look particularly friendly.

Her smile was as warm as the spring breeze, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised and her eyes full of kindness.

It was an expression that could make people feel at ease without words, as if no matter what difficulties she faced, she could make everything better.

"Ms. Hufflepuff," Hannah was so excited that she couldn't even speak clearly for a moment, "I didn't expect to see you again. I'm so happy."

"My name is Hannah Abbott, and I'm a fourth-year student at Hufflepuff House..."

In response to Hannah's greeting, Hufflepuff seemed not to hear it and walked straight towards her.

Before she could react, Hannah was surprised to find that Hufflepuff actually passed straight through her body without encountering any obstacles.

This really confused Hannah. She stammered, "Ms. Hufflepuff, are you... a ghost now?"

"It's not a ghost, Miss Abbott," Sebastian's voice came from the side, "It's a special existence similar to memory."

The reason why this is not just memory is that the current Hufflepuff can do things that memory cannot do, such as opening cupboards and organizing various ingredients on the stove.

Sebastian keenly realized that the key to all this lies in the stone statue.

It was Hannah Abbott's approach that triggered everything here. The stone statue must carry some strange magic.

He really wanted to check the secret of the statue right now, but what Hufflepuff was doing now was undoubtedly more important.

Most likely, Hufflepuff might be teaching her unique skills in making magical food this way.

This precious teaching is much more important than the secret of this stone statue.

In order to avoid doing something that would only bring back the pearl, Sebastian suppressed his curiosity and focused all his attention on Hufflepuff's actions.

"Miss Abbott, you can also regard this as a special magical video. Watch it carefully. Ms. Hufflepuff may be teaching us in this way."

Hearing Sebastian's explanation, Hannah Abbott held her breath and opened her eyes wide, afraid of missing any details.

Hufflepuff's movements were skillful and agile, as if this kitchen was her natural stage.

She kneaded the dough with her deft hands, full of concentration and love. Every time she kneaded it, the dough seemed to glow with new vitality in her hands.

She put the dough into the hot oven with satisfaction, a warm smile appeared on her face, and she spoke slowly, her voice soft and clear.

"The thing I am most proud of in my life is that I founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry with three friends."

She paused slightly and began to cut the vegetables. There was no drag in her movements with the knife. Each piece of vegetable was cut into even sizes, as if it had been precisely calculated.

She continued, "However, what makes me happiest is to enjoy all kinds of food. Of course, what excites me even more is to study them. You know, the food culture in this land is so poor that it makes people feel sorry. So, I have to enrich it myself."

Hufflepuff smiled softly, with the light of memory flickering in his eyes: "As I grow older, I become more and more obsessed with this hobby. One day, I came up with an idea, which is to use magic to make food have some unique effects that potions cannot achieve."

She added the vegetables to the boiling water and stirred it skillfully. Soon the fragrant aroma spread in the kitchen.

"By the time I developed this set of food magic, I was already very old. I thought that this kind of magic could not be buried and must be passed on."

"The other three old friends have left their heritage in Hogwarts in their own way. I also want to leave something behind. So, I created this secret place."

Hufflepuff pointed to the surrounding kitchens, his expression softening and proud, "Only those who have a true love for food can come here."

She narrated her mental journey as gently as a neighbor's grandmother, her tone full of memories and emotion.

Suddenly, she changed the subject, her expression became serious, and she exuded the majesty of a professor.

"Remember," she said in a low but powerful voice, "magic is the catalyst, ingredients are the carrier, and the love that comes from the heart is the main ingredient."

“My food magic is not just about cooking. Its essence lies in understanding the ingredients and incorporating magic into the cooking process to create wonderful food that has both flavor and efficacy.”

In this unique kitchen, Hufflepuff became a professor, patiently and meticulously dissecting her culinary magic.

As the cooked soup was taken away from the stove, Hufflepuff took out a piece of parchment and said with a smile.

"It's a pity that due to the special nature of this place, you probably won't be able to taste the vegetable soup and toast I made."

"But it doesn't matter. This piece of parchment contains four of my best magical food recipes. You will need to research the rest on your own."

“The real deliciousness needs to be created by yourself.”

After saying this, she walked towards the statue again and disappeared into it.

Sebastian came over, and the first dish on the parchment was the inspired vegetable soup.

This vegetable soup inspires creativity and inspiration. Just one bowl of it will give you a burst of new ideas and thoughts.

Great!

Sebastian was full of admiration.

This effect will surely be appreciated by inventors as it helps them break out of their mental stalemate.

The second magical delicacy is memory bread. In the magical world, wizards who master memory magic are quite rare, and this memory bread can allow the eater to recall past memories.

For example, an afternoon in childhood, or an unforgettable trip.

The memories this magic evokes are real and full of detail.

The remaining two are the Perception Cookies that can temporarily enhance magical perception, and the Mind Resonance Cake that can create emotional resonance.

Just these four magical delicacies were enough to make Sebastian marvel.

Those magical effects made him want to try them right away.

More importantly, Hufflepuff also taught her her unique gourmet magic. It can be said that as long as she maintains her passion for gourmet food, she can continue to make new magical foods.

No matter from which point of view, this trip is worth it!
