48 Invisibility Potion

"Wait you three too?" Harry asked. "Chris I do appreciate the help, but we have our method of sneaking through the night. How are you three going to get to the 3rd floor?"

"We have our own methods," Chris said. "Don't worry, we'll be there right along with you,"

"Alright," Harry said "However, do be careful. I think you already know this, but the ghosts here are not fun to deal with especially Peeves. If he somehow catches you three, you'll most definitely be sold out to the professors,"

"Alright," Chris said. "We'll be careful,"

After dinner, Chris, Hermione, and Kristine went back to their tower to get ready.

Chris excused himself and went to an isolated place and made sure that no one was around him.

'System can I buy 3 extremely strong invisibility potions or rent an invisibility cloak?' Chris asked.

[Both is available. You may rent the Invisibility Cloak for 1 Galleon per every half hour or buy 1 potion for 6 Sickles and 3 for 1 Galleon.]

'1 Galleon?! Don't you think that's a rip-off System?' Chris asked with a surprised tone as he did not think getting just one of these two items would be that expensive. While in any other case, he wouldn't sweat over a Galleon, in the case of System money, he only has around 20 Galleons. Even spending 1 would take a huge toll on his funds.

[The Invisibility cloak you may rent is an extremely powerful cloak that will hide your presence from everyone including ghosts. So unless someone physically touch you, have an extremely strong sense of smell to track you, or happens to hear you walking, there will be no other way anyone would know you are there. Furthermore, the cloak can change in size depending on how many people are going to be under it and the sizes of said people. Of course, the limit is 3 people of all sizes. The Invisibility Potion has the same effect as the cloak except for the fact it will last 2 hours. You can drink half of the bottle and then finish the remaining half to turn visible again. Of course, you can also wait for the 2 hour limit on the potion. Also, you can see anyone that has also drank this potion and others may do the same. However, if you try to look in the mirror, you will not be able to see your bodies.]

'Alright fair enough. For how powerful it is, 1 Galleon seems to be a pretty good price,' Chris said. 'Well then let me buy 3 potions,'

[Thank you for your purchase. You now have 22 G 5 S and 0 K. As long as you hold your hand out and think of the item, you may take out the potion.]

'Alright,' Chris extended his hands and thought of taking out the 3 Invisibility Potions and in less than a second, 3 potion bottles filled to the brim with transparent liquid appeared in Chris' hand.

[Invisibility Potion: Potion that is able to grant invisibility to the drinker. To use it, drink half of the bottle to grant invisibility for 2 hours and the other half to immediately remove the invisibility.]

'Alright everything is prepared. All we need to do now is wait,' Chris thought as he left to go to where Hermione and Kristine were.

"Hey where were you? You suddenly disappeared," Kristine said.

"Oh I was just getting the stuff I had prepared for today," Chris said taking out 2 potions. He gave one to both girls.

"What is this?" Hermione asked. "I don't remember seeing this in the textbooks,"

"Of course you haven't because this is something that I got from a friend of mine," Chris said. "He always has strange items, but when he gives things away, he never gets it wrong. These 3 are invisibility potions. To use it, you have to drink half of the bottle and to remove the invisibility effect, you have to drink the other half of the bottle. He guarantees the effectiveness,"

"Wait Chris, I have so many questions such as the identity of this supposed friend that you have, but assuming that you do have this friend, how can we trust him. It's absurd that you have to drink half the potion to get the effect and the other half to remove the invisibility. I mean it just doesn't make sense. Also, what happens if we drink a little over half or a little under half?" Hermione asked.

"I don't know. He tested it and that was how he got it. Of course, it doesn't have to be exactly half. I'm sure that you can go a little over and under. Also, I trust that friend. He has never betrayed my trust so I'm sure that he gave us the right stuff," Chris said.

"Alright. We're going to trust this friend of yours this one time," Kristine said.

The three sat down in the Common Room. Some of the first years came talking to them every once in a while, but after around 2 hours, it seemed that everyone was now in bed. The three looked at each other and nodded.

"Drink your potions now," Chris whispered. The three took out their bottles and drank half of it. The taste was nice resembling that of strawberry flavored Skittles that Chris loved back in his previous world.

After around 5 seconds, both Hermione and Kristine had confused faces.

"What happened? Why can I still see you guys?" Hermione asked.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to say that as long as you drank the same potion, you'll be able to see each other. Try looking into a mirror," Chris said.

The two looked for a nearby mirror and saw that they couldn't see a body.

"Wow, that's amazing. Well I was thinking of how we were going to see each other while walking over there," Hermione said. "This potion is great!"

"More importantly, that potion was delicious," Kristine said. "I think I might like that more than most of the wizard candies that I bought. Does your friend have any more?"

"Maybe," Chris said. "I never know what he has and when he has those items. Alright let's stop talking. We have to get going,"
