Chapter 7: Dumbledore
"Ding! Hourly report, zero o'clock, new items have appeared in the store!"
Theo put down the spell book hidden as Oliver Twist and directly summoned the system store.
[Item 1: Energy Potion 50ml (Unbound) 5 Merit Points]
[Item 2: Supreme Memory Potion (Unbound) 100 Merit Points]
[Refresh Time Countdown: 23 hours, 59 minutes, 30 seconds]
[Merit Points: 165]
[Dark Lord Achievement: Unachieved]
At first glance, these two items seem a bit ordinary.
Theo casually browsed the system descriptions of these two items.
[Energy Potion: Energy potion produced by the system; only 50 ml is needed to keep people energetic and tireless for forty-eight hours.]. It is recommended to take it as appropriate. Taking too much will produce the side effect of drowsiness. If side effects have already occurred, please go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for treatment during a brief period of consciousness.
Isn't this just a fortified version of coffee... Looking at the energy potion in the store interface, Theo only felt a sense of familiarity.
He had drunk a lot of coffee for work before...
Then Theo turned his attention to the second item again.
Theo keenly noticed that the second item, although it also showed that it was a potion in the name, did not indicate the dosage like the energy potion.
[Supreme Memory Potion: Exclusive product produced by the system.]. After taking it, it can greatly improve the taker's memory. The effect of the potion is permanent.
Although the introduction is simple and direct, Theo couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
A person's memory is one of the most important foundations for learning new knowledge. Having a good memory can provide great help in both learning and research!
What's more, the effect of this potion is actually permanent!
Although he didn't know how much this massive improvement specifically referred to, Theo still unhesitatingly used one hundred merit points to buy this potion.
Speaking of these 165 merit points...
Although he didn't know why the more he hit Tom, the more merit points he got, he still had to thank Mr. Riddle for his selfless contribution.
Otherwise, this memory potion could only be locked for now.
Theo only felt a familiar warmth in his palm, and then a small transparent glass bottle appeared in his hand.
Theo pulled out the stopper and smelt it. It was colourless and odourless, as ordinary as ordinary water...
Without much delay, Theo raised his neck and poured all the potion in the bottle into his mouth.
Theo smacked his lips; well, the taste was the same as distilled water, without any taste.
At this moment, the small glass bottle in Theo's hand suddenly turned into light spots and disappeared, as if it were recycled by the system.
Theo carefully felt his body, but he didn't feel anything special, as if the potion he had just drunk was really just ordinary water.
Theo was a little puzzled. After waiting for a while, he directly took the spell book and turned to a page he had not seen before and quickly browsed it.
After browsing it like a fleeting glance, Theo finally felt the changes in himself...
After just a cursory reading, without even beginning to understand the knowledge above, those words and patterns were already deeply imprinted in his mind like photos!
It was as if he had repeatedly read and memorised it many times.
This supreme memory potion had a better effect than Theo expected. After greatly improving his memory, Theo seemed to have the ability to never forget!
Theo was in a very good mood. These one hundred merit points were well spent!
He once again thanked Tom in his heart for his outstanding contribution to this...
Then, Theo bought the bottle of energy potion as well, and then lifted a floor tile under the carpet and put the energy potion in.
In this temporary storage compartment, there was also the Essence of Dittany that Theo had bought before.
After hiding the potion, Theo glanced at his remaining balance of 60 merit points.
Although Tom was a very good tool person for brushing merit points, it was still a bit too slow to always shear wool from him.
Theo decided to try other ways to brush merit points tomorrow.
As for tonight...
After glancing at the cold and hard iron bed, Theo decisively opened the carpet again, pried open the floor tiles, and took out the energy potion.
Why sleep long before you die? You should sleep soundly after you die...
With the ability to never forget and the blessing of "super coffee," how can you not study hard? How can you be worthy of Comrade Riddle's selfless dedication?
...
Time passed in the blink of an eye for several days.
This afternoon.
"咚咚咚..."
There was a knock on the tightly closed door of the orphanage.
Ellie quickly put down the tray containing iodine and ran quickly to the door to open it.
She saw a slightly tired, tall, and thin man standing outside the door.
He was wearing a very gorgeous dark purple velvet suit, which looked very strange.
His hair and beard were reddish-brown, and although he was dressed very strangely, he had a very good temperament.
'This must be a lawyer or a professor or something...' Ellie thought.
The tall and thin man showed a kind smile. "Good afternoon. I have an appointment with Mrs. Cole. I believe she is the dean here."
"Oh, please wait a moment." Ellie turned and shouted loudly towards the distance, "Mrs. Cole..."
A loud response came from a distant place. Ellie then turned her head and said to the tall and thin man, "Please come in; she will be here soon."
The tall and thin man walked into the corridor paved with black and white tiles, silently looking around.
The whole place looked dilapidated, and it could be seen that the current situation of the orphanage was not very good.
But this dilapidated environment was cleaned spotless; obviously, the person in charge here was indeed very dutiful.
Before the door behind him was completely closed, Mrs. Cole walked over quickly with a tired face.
She spoke to another girl wearing an apron anxiously as she walked towards the tall and thin man.
"...and then take this bottle of iodine to Martha upstairs; Billy Stubbs is picking at his scabs, and Eric Willie, the sheets are full of sweat, but dealing with chickenpox is the top priority."
Before Mrs. Cole finished speaking, she saw the tall and thin man in front of her. To be honest, this man's strange dress really surprised her.
"Good afternoon." The tall and thin man stretched out his hand. "My name is Albus Dumbledore. I wrote you an appointment letter, and you kindly invited me to come here today."
Mrs. Cole was in a trance for a while before she said, "Oh, yes, there is such an appointment... Well, let's talk in my office."
Dumbledore smiled and politely followed behind Mrs. Cole.
At the corner of the stairs, Theo watched Dumbledore's back, a smile appearing on his face.
Dumbledore has finally arrived!
Although the current Dumbledore is still very young, his unique image and temperament made Theo recognise him easily.
After all, at this time, at this location, the tall and thin man with a crooked nose and blue eyes who came to visit Mrs. Cole was none other than him.
Beside Theo, Tom was holding a ragged rag, wiping the stairhandrail unwillingly.
Dumbledore's peculiar image naturally attracted his attention immediately.
"Who is that person? The colour of his clothes is really disgusting... Was his nose broken by someone?"
