Jon had always been a ruthless person.
No matter how others looked at him, no matter how good-tempered he appeared to be, he would act coquettishly and laugh it off. When he dealt with things, he always looked calm and indifferent. He didn't do anything, but that didn't mean that he really didn't care about these things.
If something were to happen and his interests were to be harmed, he would be so ruthless that even Helga would be satisfied with it.
The dead American Black Sorcerer was a good example of that.
However, Jon would not tell Stephen these things at this time. There was no need to destroy Stephen's young heart at this time. He would grow up sooner or later, but Jon did not want him to grow up because of this kind of thing.
If there was a problem with his plan, he would naturally solve it himself.
Of course, it was too early to think about this.
…
Jon's plan involved a considerable number of Hogwarts members.
In addition to the students, there were also the elves and ghosts.
Hufflepuff's students seemed to be born with a low-key aura. Even if they won the School Championship Competition last year, they were still not noticed. They were like background characters wherever they went.
Even the few students who wanted to regain their dignity because of their strength did not cause any trouble in the end.
It was all because of Professor Sprout's teaching.
Jon even suspected that Professor Sprout might have permanently attached her magic that could be ignored by others to Hufflepuff's school emblem. Just like now, he was standing in front of Professor Sprout's office, but the professor did not notice him at all.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door. The door was not closed and opened automatically.
Jon had investigated what Professor Sprout had been busy with recently. It seemed like she was doing some kind of research.
Did Professor Sprout have any other specialties besides herbology?
When Jon walked into the office with doubts, he was ready to accept Professor Sprout's questions. Who told him to be so strange these two days? He was absent-minded in Professor Sprout's class.
But Professor Sprout seemed to be busy.
She was behind a messy desk, scribbling furiously on a large stack of manuscripts.
It was not until Jon was close enough that the witch looked up as if she had just woken up from a dream. "Eh? Jon, it's you? Sorry, I was working just now and didn't notice you … What's the matter? "
"It's fine, it's fine. You can continue with your work, professor."
Jon had a favor to ask of Professor Sprout. He couldn't wait to give Professor Sprout a massage. "By the way, what have you been researching these days? I heard from my classmates that you rarely go to the greenhouse these days. "
"Oh, you mean this …"
Professor Sprout pushed the manuscript in front of him and smiled proudly as he said, "I've been analyzing the Karstini manuscript. This time, I might be able to translate a part of the last chapter."
"Karstani manuscript?"
Jon was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and carefully looked at the ancient magic text on the table. "Professor, are you going to win the Gebalot Prize?"
"It's not that easy!" Professor Sprout said with a wry smile. "I've only deciphered one manuscript so far."
The Gebalot Prize in the magic world was somewhat similar to the Nobel Prize in the Muggle world. It was a relatively unknown award jointly established by the International Alchemy Congress and the Alchemy Research Center headquartered in Egypt. In the beginning, there was only the Alchemy Prize. Later, it gradually evolved into Potions, Alchemy, Magic Spells, and major contributions.
The Gebalot Prize that Jon was talking about was the Gebalot Alchemy Prize. This prize was awarded once every three years, and there were very few winners each time. The Gebalot Prize International Committee selected wizards who had made great contributions to the field of potioneering or alchemy through various academic achievements to present this prize to the wizards who had made great contributions to the field of potioneering or alchemy.
All along, the magic world's research on ancient mythological civilizations had been very limited. The Wizard who could make exploratory contributions was generally a legendary wizard like Dumbledore who could carry out pioneering research. The other Wizards could only analyze and decipher the precious data left behind from that era.
This was because the magic text used in the era of the gods and the current era were different.
In the ancient field of Potions, the Karstani manuscript was basically the most important document. Some scholars even thought that it was a relic of the gods. If one could decipher this manuscript, they would be able to obtain almost the ability of the legendary Wizard in the field of Herbalism.
Why did Jon know so much?
Because the translation of the first part of the Karstani manuscript in the entire magic world was translated by Helga.
In the thousand years after Helga's death, countless master Wizards in Herbalism, Potions, and Alchemy had advanced wave after wave, and only then could they barely decipher the second part. Now, Professor Sprout was deciphering the third part, which was also the last big chapter.
If there was no problem with Professor Sprout's method, and there was no problem with the way she deciphered it, according to this witch's personality, she would probably be able to completely decipher the entire content of the Karstani manuscript. When that time came, not to mention an award, her name would probably be added to the next edition of the history of magic.
She would definitely be given the title of Herbalism Guru.
At that time, it was estimated that all the students in Hufflepuff Academy would be honored.
"If you can decipher it, it means that you're going in the right direction. Should I congratulate you in advance?"
"No, no, no, it's still uncertain. I've only deciphered six to seven percent of the manuscript, and it's already very difficult for me. Even if I can really decipher it, it will be a few years later. I'm guessing that you'll have already graduated by then."
"But you're the lifetime chairman of the Hufflepuff Academy of Magic Research. Oh right, Professor, senior sister Sophia has discussed with the seniors who have graduated. They plan to set up a research academy outside and connect it with the academy's academy. Do you know about this?"
Professor Sprout thought for a moment, then flipped through the manuscript and pulled out a letter. "I know about this, and I don't have any objections. Why are you suddenly talking about this?"
"Nothing, I just think that this idea is very good. Think about it, there are many students in our academy who can't find a particularly decent job after graduation. If we can help, it would be a good thing."
"Oh?"
Professor Sprout raised his head and looked at Chown. Suddenly, he laughed.
