Chapter 31
If John remembered correctly, it seemed to be No. 4 Privet Drive.
…
Harry, who had only been back for a few days, used the method Hagrid taught him to make the Dursleys no longer dare to boss him around.
He followed the school's rules and regulations and did not use magic.
To scare people is just to take out a magic wand.
But just like that, he actually received a warning letter from the Ministry of Magic.
He was a little confused. Isn't it okay to use a wand to scare people?
As the initiator of everything, John remembered that Harry's wand seemed to be equipped with a trace.
He was fine, but Harry took the blame.
John secretly apologized.
It is true that when a person is sitting at home, the pot comes from heaven.
Chapter 36 Visiting and Traveling
After drinking the magic blood, John felt that the whole world became clear.
It was as if magical elements flashed before his eyes from time to time. Although he didn't see the physical objects, he could feel their existence.
"The magic blood is more effective than I thought."
John took out his wand and performed a small spell.
The flames sprayed out and surrounded the basement. John was startled, and it took him a long time to control it.
"A fire spell creates a powerful fire effect."
Level 4 flames are so terrifying, if it were level 4 fire, it would be terrible.
He had the urge to upgrade Li Huo, but after thinking about it he decided against it.
Level 3 magic control and level 4 flames are somewhat uncontrollable. If you control the strong fire, you may burn the house down.
There are a lot of things missing in the basement now. The chair that was turned into an owl has been taken out by Watson as an ornament.
When Basil saw such a lifelike owl, he thought John had other owls in the basement.
John tried to change these items that were transformed by the magic power back, but failed.
"The magic runaway unleashed my full potential."
The animals are just like the real ones except that they don't move.
John felt that if he could maintain this state, even Voldemort himself could fight.
Unfortunately, this state of affairs is rare.
In the magical world, there is a creature called the Obscurus, which is derived from a little wizard whose magic is rampant.
This kind of thing is extremely dangerous. The wizard who gave birth to the Obscurus is called an Obscurus, and the Obscurus generally does not live long.
I heard that there had been an Obscurial riot in New York before, and the resulting incident almost exposed the entire magical world.
Fortunately, it was all resolved in the end.
John needs to control every time he uses magic blood, otherwise he may become the Obscurus.
At that point, the gain outweighs the loss.
…
After John upgraded his alchemy to level 2, he became more comfortable with alchemy, especially with the help of the magic stone.
Taking out one of the nine refined badges, John carefully carved runes on it.
Thurisaz
This is a rune with a reflective effect, and also has a small effect of adding luck.
After the engraving was completed, a layer of light flashed over the badge, and it quickly returned to normal.
"Using the magic stone and dragon's blood as the ink for carving, the effect is very good."
Nodding with satisfaction, John put the badge on his chest.
The star-like badge added a mysterious quality to him, and he planned to save the remaining eight badges to depict other runes.
"John, someone is looking for you."
Mrs. Wick's gentle voice sounded, and John felt strange.
Someone else is looking for him, could it be Harry?
The wand tapped on the table, and the things placed on it were returned to the suitcase in an orderly manner.
After everything was done, John walked out of the basement.
He had thought it was Harry, or some former classmates or something.
Unexpectedly, when he came up, he saw the old man wearing a lavender wizard robe and a half-moon lens on his crooked nose.
Dumbledore.
Dumbledore was very arrogant. He visited the house and expressed some emotions from time to time.
Especially when he saw the decorative owl, Dumbledore's eyes flashed with wisdom.
"Professor Dumbledore."
John's heart tightened and he hurried over.
His reserved look was noticed by Dumbledore, who smiled and said, "Minerva is right, you are very talented in transfiguration, John."
Hearing this, John felt a little embarrassed that someone had grabbed his pigtails.
This achievement in Transfiguration even surprised Dumbledore. He was once a professor of Transfiguration, so he could naturally see that it was an accomplishment that surpassed most people.
From his perspective, this owl could at least put many Aurors to shame.
With a searching look in his eyes, Dumbledore was curious about how John did it.
"A few days ago, Harry received a warning letter from the Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Magic of the Ministry of Magic. He was extremely aggrieved."
Blinking, Dumbledore thought of Harry receiving the warning letter.
John pretended not to know anything, but he couldn't help but nervously put the wand back.
Dumbledore whispered: "Don't be nervous. Some smart wizards always have special methods. Harry will be fine. It's just a small warning."
As he spoke, he used two fingers to show how small it was.
This made John feel relieved, thinking that the title of savior should be able to give Harry special privileges.
It seemed that Dumbledore was here because of the commotion he had caused a few days ago, so John invited Dumbledore to sit down.
Mrs. Wick brought a cup of black tea and some baked cookies.
“Excellent craftsmanship.”
Dumbledore took a bite of the cookie and immediately praised it.
Mrs. Wick also looked happy when she saw the old man eating happily.
After chatting for a while, Dumbledore also got down to business.
"John, the Philosopher's Stone has been with you for some time."
When John heard this, he understood that he was here to ask for the Philosopher's Stone.
Although he was a little reluctant to give up, John still nodded honestly and said: "Okay Professor Dumbledore, I'll get it right away."
"No, no, no, John."
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Dumbledore waved his hand and said, "My old friend is not in a hurry. The Philosopher's Stone has been declared destroyed. You still have one holiday to own it."
"Then what is this?" John was confused. If he didn't come here for the Sorcerer's Stone, then why?
Dumbledore smiled mysteriously and said, "My old friend heard that there is a young wizard who is very interested in alchemy and wants to meet him."
Old friend?
Nico Flamel!
John stood up with some excitement, and Dumbledore was not surprised to see him so excited.
That is the living legend of alchemy, the only person in the world who created the Philosopher's Stone.
Thinking that his old friend was ready to face death, Dumbledore felt that he also wanted to leave a little story for the wizarding world.
Well, a descendant might be a good eulogist.
"John, if you have no other plans for your vacation, maybe we can take a trip abroad, of course, provided your parents agree to this."
disagree?
impossible!
John agreed almost without thinking.
If you want to ask who is the real master of alchemy in this world, then it must be Nico Flamel.
John's magic sword hasn't been finished yet, so how could he let this opportunity go?
After discussing with his parents for a while, Watson passed easily, but Mrs. Wick was not that easy.
When she heard that she was going abroad, Mrs. Wick became worried.
"Help me quickly."
"This is my wife."
"That?"
"You have to pay more!"
In the end, during the eye conversation between John and Watson, John promised to buy Watson super bubble gum and chocolate frogs, plus asked Basil to deliver letters to friends for Watson and let Tom perform at the party.
Mrs. Wick relented, but the requirement was that she must write a letter and send it home every week.
"If you dare not write back, I will tell your uncles."
This was Mrs. Wick's threat to John. When he thought of those uncles, John felt that this threat was too vicious.
Mrs. Wick was a Slav, and her brothers were bare-chested bear-wrestlers in the winter.
When John was five years old, he went to his grandfather's house and saw with his own eyes that his uncle had subdued a brown bear.
In order to make their nephew happy, they also planned to take John to hunt in the mountains. If not for Mrs. Wick's scolding, John would probably be an experienced hunter by now.
After making an appointment with Dumbledore, John returned to the basement to pack his things.
In fact, there are not many things, but the magic stones and materials must be carefully stored.
After playing a frisbee game with Tom, John saw Dumbledore who had changed his clothes.
Dumbledore wanted to try a Muggle cruise on a whim.
What else can John do? It seems that the portkey's departure abroad can only be realized next time.
Chapter 37 Beauxbatons and Exchange Students
Across the English Channel, the cruise ship arrives in France from the UK.
Pyrenees.
This is the natural border between France and Spain. Beauxbatons Castle, surrounded by mountainous landscape, is located here, creating a paradise with magic.
If you ask a British wizard which is the best wizarding school in the world, they will tell you without hesitation that it is Hogwarts.
If you ask French wizards, they will tell you that the Englishman is farting and that Beauxbatons is the best wizarding school.
The magnificent and romantic castle is the French's favorite French palace, and magical gardens and fountains surround the school.
