Legend of Hogwarts (Harry Potter x League of Legends) Chapter 269 269: The Aftermath of Catnip

Catnip is, after all, just a simple little herb.

If there's anything unusual about it, it's that its attraction to cats is nearly limitless, more irresistible than lemon tea on a sumr day.

Minutes later, the area was strewn with sprawled-out cats, many of them performing strange, frantic movents, as if they were high on sothing.

In reality, the herb's main effect is to aid cats' digestion, with only a minor hallucinogenic effect. It's harmless and non-addictive.

Allen had originally kept these seeds for his own cats. But now, well… he wasn't about to be polite.

The young wizard guiding them swallowed hard, a little embarrassed. Their usual trick, surrounding unsuspecting freshn with cats to make them flee in humiliation, had backfired spectacularly this ti.

Suppressing his mischief, he led Allen's group back on the right path: toward the center of the school.

Mahoutokoro is built on a volcanic island's high point, so they steadily climbed upward. Soon, the few pristine white buildings at the summit ca into view.

"Whoa, your school is beautiful. That white marble style is really impressive," Marshall remarked.

Lovid nodded in agreent, though their eyes betrayed a different thought, these buildings are tiny!

Of course, as guests, they didn't say a word. Politeness required them to highlight the good points, especially after the warm reception they had just received.

Unfortunately, their true impression didn't escape the guide, he was despairing. The campus might be a work of art, and yes, its size was limited. But the headmaster had told him not to flaunt it in front of visitors who wouldn't understand.

So, the guide missed out on the sight he most wanted to see, a young wizard genuinely shocked, utterly overwheld by what lay before him.

Allen blinked in awe. From the base of the mountain, he had been mildly impressed, marble castles are impactful, though they'd need magic protection from weathering.

But up close, the reality slapped him: this was a 4k cat-tycoon's playground.

Yes, Allen had seen much in his life, but he had never t a nouveau riche school this extravagant.

He wasn't sure of the exact value of sheep fat jade, but he knew it was outrageously expensive. And yet… every main structure of this campus was built entirely of it.

Even the emperor's so-called golden bricks were just fancy nas. Here, the entire school was constructed of jade.

Allen's first reaction? Could he dismantle the school and take it ho? Second, pry a brick loose to see if it was really all jade. Third, maybe… grab a chunk and sell it for quick cash?

The fourth thought? Embarrassing. Too humiliating to admit. Luckily, Allen restrained himself, drooling on the floor in front of them would be shaful, and murder to cover it up would be overkill.

Throughout the tour, Marshall and the others noticed Allen walking with one hand tracing the walls.

"Hey, Allen, what's wrong? Sothing off?"

"Oh, nothing. It's just that the protective magic here is completely different from Hogwarts. Touch it, and you can feel ancient power flowing through the building materials. It's incredibly strong, protecting the entire structure almost completely. And it's fascinating, two very different magics achieving nearly the sa effect."

The others were baffled. Every word made sense, but the combined aning was a mystery.

Still, they could sense it was amazing.

The guide was even more impressed. Based on the group's reactions, Allen was clearly their leader, implying that his magical skill was the highest.

No wonder the headmaster valued this exchange so highly, truly formidable foreign young wizards could appear. The guide silently thanked his intensive language crash course for preparing him.

If it weren't for his top grades, he might not have been sent here to handle them. Now, he had learned a lot. His robe's pink hue had faded slightly, revealing hints of golden light.

"Wow!"

A shout escaped the guide, followed by words of thanks in familiar Japanese. Marshall and the others were dumbfounded, why speak in a language we can't understand?

Realizing the expressions on everyone's faces, the guide quickly apologized, repeating his gratitude toward Allen.

Through his explanation, they learned Mahoutokoro's graduation rules differ from other schools, it's all about the robes.

Students enroll at seven, wearing magical robes that grow and change color with age and magical knowledge, from pale pink to gold. Cool, right?

The downside? Early enrollnt doesn't an early graduation. If your robe isn't gold, sorry, you stay in school, no matter your age.

Allen's small insight saved him at least a year, not a joke.

Though… he was a bit embarrassed. Honestly, he had just wanted to touch the jade walls.
