“Yes, yes, I know why he passed your class,” Professor Roswell interrupted. “How did he earn honors?”
“Devon, on the first day, when I told you to light the cauldron, what was the first thing you did?”
I thought back. It felt like a year rather than sixteen weeks. “I put my jacket over it.”
“Why?”
“I didn’t want it to explode on me. My jacket could be washed or replaced.”
“When I pulled out the ingredients and said we were going over them, what did you do?”
“I put my gloves on.”
“When Becky put conium maculatum in her luck potion, what did you do?”
“I poured it out and told her it was hemlock, which is poisonous.”
Professor Langril turned to the other professor with a self-satisfied smirk. He looked proud. “I have always stated that safety is imperative, but I have rarely had a student who put safety first as much as Devon. Therefore, he is graduating with honors in my class.”
Remy closed the blue file and passed it back to Hunt with a smile. “In that case, Devon Sanders, you have passed your elemental circle with flying colors and you have fifteen credits to graduate. Congratulations. We will see you back here in five weeks.”
