Chapter 46 The Story of Nicolas Flamel

"Cough-cough-cough!"

Adam suddenly choked on his saliva, patted his chest desperately and drank a few more water before he recovered.

Concerned greetings from family members suddenly came downstairs, and Ares, who was depressed, also cast a concerned look.

"I'm fine! I just choked on the water!"

After shouting downstairs, Adam closed the door, picked up Ares, walked to the small sofa in the corner and sat down:

"Sibi, are you sure? If you're not sure, don't taint someone's innocence! Ares is only three years old! He's still a baby!"

As he spoke, Adam lowered his head and rubbed Ares' furry head.

"Adam, wake up! Do you remember that he is a snowy owl?"

Sibi shouted speechlessly.

Adam was stunned:

"Oh, yes...that seems to make sense. By the way, how old does a snowy owl become an adult?"

"I don't know that."

Sibi lay on the bed and wagged his tail.

Looking at Ares, Adam fell into deep thought. If he was really lovesick, it was not impossible.

The Snowy Owl is a very dedicated animal, and is one of the few birds that lives in a monogamous relationship. Even when food is abundant, polygamy is rarely seen.

so……

"Ares, did you find a girlfriend at the Owlery?"

"Gu..."

Ares buried his face in his wings

Adam:? ? ?

It’s true!

"Don't be so shy! Whose girl is she from? Is she ready? Huh?"

The fire of gossip in Adam's heart was burning brightly, and he kept poking Ares's feathers with his fingers. Ares couldn't listen anymore and ran back to the cage by himself.

"Don't hide. At least tell me whose owl it is. If I know the other person, I can send a few letters and you can have a chance to meet~"

"Gu?"

Ares was originally facing away from Adam in the cage, but after hearing this, he turned his head 180 degrees and looked over.

"Of course it's true, tell me who it is...oh you can't speak."

Adam was a little confused. They didn't have any photos. Besides, all the owls in Hogwarts were in the owl shed. How could he possibly know everyone?

"But speaking of it, Snowy Owl should only be interested in Snowy Owl, right? There are not many people in Hogwarts who have Snowy Owl..."

Because of their distinctive white appearance, the price of snowy owls is very expensive among owls. Adam remembered that the number of snowy owls he had seen in the owl shed did not exceed double digits.

He only knew three of them, so he hoped that the owner of the person Ares was interested in was one of these three.

It was obviously impossible for Ares to know who the owner of the other party was, so Adam was going to write a letter to all three people and ask Ares to send it to them. Unexpectedly, the first letter won.

"It's really Hedwig..."

Adam was a little surprised. He chose to buy the snowy owl at that time because of Hedwig's influence. Unexpectedly, the gears of fate would turn around in a circle.

"Hiss-hiss-"

Ares flapped his wings excitedly, and his mouth neighed completely differently than usual. Adam probably knew what he meant.

After all, where Harry's living conditions are, how much better can Hedwig be?

"But what can I do? I can't go to Harry and say to him: 'Hey Harry, my owl has fallen in love with your owl. Anyway, Hedwig will suffer from following you, so why not bring her to our home?' ?”

Ares silently ran back to the cage.

Adam spread his hands:

"How about you go try to find Hedwig and see if she is willing to elope with you? I can still afford to raise one more owl."

Last night, Adam didn't know how to answer when Ms. Li asked him how much he spent on school in a year and whether he wanted more from her.

His biggest purchase this year was the investment in twins, but he made back a lot of money from just one Christmas dinner...

Ares' head moved when he heard this, and he didn't want to pay attention to Adam.

This time Adam really had no choice but to let Ares be quiet and look away. He still had to go to Nico Flamel's appointment.

The transfer card in Clow's card can teleport to any place he has been, and Adam used this to arrive at Nico Flamel's house alone.

After knocking on the door, Nico Flamel walked over and opened the door after a long time. He was a little surprised when he saw Adam alone outside the door:

"Has your grandma gone back?"

"No... Mr. Flamel, I came alone."

After thinking for a while, Adam still couldn't find a suitable name, so he had to call him this for now.

When Adam spoke, he waved the wand of darkness in his hand. Nico Flamel also noticed this wand with a unique shape, and a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes... but that was all.

"It seems that our little Adam still has many secrets, please come in."

Nico Flamel took very small steps and took almost five times as long as Adam to reach the sofa and sit down.

"Do you know why I came to you?"

Nico Flamel looked at Adam and asked with a smile.

Adam shook his head, he really didn't know.

"The Philosopher's Stone has been destroyed."

Even though he already knew about this, Adam couldn't help but be stunned when Nico Flamel said it in person, which was no different from "I'm going to die."

"Yes, I'm dying, so I want to find someone to tell my story to. But the people I know are all old people, and the story of an old man should not be attractive to another old man, but fortunately I met you, little Adam."

Nicolas Flamel smiled:

"Would you like to listen to my story?"

"Of course!"

Nicolas Flamel told his own story, how could Adam not be interested?

Under Adam's gaze, Nicolas Flamel slowly spoke:

"Six hundred and sixty-five years ago..."

Nicolas Flamel also told the story before he refined the Philosopher's Stone in detail, but Adam was not impatient. Life in France more than six hundred years ago was also very interesting.

However, that period of life accounted for too small a proportion of Nicolas Flamel's life. Nicolas Flamel soon talked about the Philosopher's Stone:

"When I really refined the Philosopher's Stone, I couldn't believe it, but when I used the Philosopher's Stone to make the first piece of pure gold, the first elixir of life... I finally realized that I really achieved the highest achievement of alchemy."

Then there is a story about the refining of the Philosopher's Stone. It feels a bit like a cool article, but Nicolas Flamel's story does not continue to be cool.

This is not the world of Fullmetal Alchemist. The Philosopher's Stone did not bring him powerful power, so Nicolas Flamel quickly hid with his wife amid the covetousness of everyone.

Then the story seemed to have reached the part that Nicolas Flamel really wanted to tell:

"I was once extremely proud of my great achievement of refining the Philosopher's Stone. In my 665 years of life, almost half of the time was spent trying to replicate the original success."

"However, after 300 years, I experienced countless failures, and my last hope was shattered. I had to admit that all the honors bestowed on me by the world were just because of an accident - I did not really master the ability to refine the Philosopher's Stone. The Philosopher's Stone was just a wonderful coincidence, nothing more."
