I swung a sword at Hogwarts

If John remembered correctly, it seemed to be number 4, Privet Drive.

...

Harry, who had only been back for a few days, used the method taught by Hagrid to make the Dursleys no longer dare to boss him around.

He abided by the school rules and regulations and did not use magic.

To scare people, he just took out the magic wand for the sake of showing his intention.

But even so, he actually received a warning letter from the Ministry of Magic.

He was a little confused. Was it not possible to scare people with a magic wand?

As the instigator of everything, John remembered that Harry's wand seemed to have a trace.

He was fine, but Harry had to take the blame.

John secretly said sorry in his heart.

It is true that when a person is sitting at home, the pot comes from heaven.

Chapter 36 Visits and Travels

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 could not see the real objects, he could feel their existence.

"The effect of magic blood is greater than I thought."

John took out his wand and performed a small spell.

John was startled by the gushing flames that surrounded the basement, and he barely managed to control it.

"A fire spell to create a Fiendfyre effect."

The flame of level 4 is so blazing and terrifying. If it were a level 4 fierce fire, it would be even more devastating.

He had the urge to upgrade Li Huo, but after thinking it over he gave up.

It is difficult to control the raging flames of level 3 with level 4 magic. If you control the fierce fire, it might burn down the house.

There are a lot of things missing from the basement now. The chair that turned into an owl has been taken out by Watson as a decoration.

Basil saw such a lifelike owl that he thought John kept other owls in the basement.

John tried to change these items that were transformed by the magic, but failed.

"The rampage of magic has unleashed all my potential."

Except that the animals cannot move, everything else looks just like the real thing.

John felt that if he could maintain this state, he could even fight Voldemort himself.

But unfortunately, this state is something you can only encounter by chance.

In the magic world, there is a creature called Obscurus, which is derived from a little wizard whose magic power is out of control.

This thing is extremely dangerous. A wizard who gives birth to an Obscurus is called an Obscurus, and Obscurus generally do not live long.

I heard that there was an Obscurial riot in New York before, and the incident it caused almost exposed the entire wizarding world.

Fortunately, they were all resolved in the end.

John needs to control every time he uses the magic blood, otherwise he may become a Silent One.

At that time, the loss will outweigh the gain.

...

After John upgraded his alchemy to level 2, he became more proficient at alchemy, especially with the help of the Philosopher's Stone.

Taking out one of the nine badges he had refined, John carefully carved runes on it.

Thurisaz

This is a rune with reflective properties, and also has the effect of adding a little luck.

After the engraving was completed, a layer of light flashed on the badge, and then quickly returned to normal.

"Using the Philosopher's 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 badges that looked like a galaxy added a touch of mystery to him, and he planned to keep the remaining eight badges to engrave other runes.

"John, someone wants to see you."

Mrs. Wick's gentle voice sounded, and John was surprised.

Someone else came to see me, 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 finishing everything, John walked out of the basement.

He had thought it would be Harry, or some old classmate or something.

Unexpectedly, after coming up, he saw the old man wearing a lavender wizard robe and half-moon lenses on his crooked nose.

Dumbledore.

Dumbledore was very humble. He toured the house and expressed his feelings from time to time.

Especially when he saw the decorative owl, a gleam of wisdom flashed in Dumbledore's eyes.

"Professor Dumbledore."

John's heart tightened and he ran over quickly.

Dumbledore noticed his reserved look and smiled, "Minerva is right. You are very talented in Transfiguration, John."

Hearing this, John felt a little embarrassed as if he had been caught doing something wrong.

This level of Transfiguration even surprised Dumbledore. He used to be a professor of Transfiguration, so he could naturally see that this level of Transfiguration surpassed most people.

From his perspective, this owl could at least put many Aurors to shame.

With an inquiring look in his eyes, Dumbledore was curious about how John did it.

"Harry received a warning letter from the Ministry of Magic's Misuse of Magic Office a few days ago. He felt very aggrieved."

Blinking, Dumbledore thought of the way Harry looked when he received the warning letter.

John pretended to know nothing, but he couldn't help but put his wand back nervously.

Dumbledore whispered, "Don't be nervous. Some clever wizards always have special methods. Harry will be fine. It's just a small warning."

As he spoke, he used two fingers to indicate how small it was.

This made John feel relieved. He thought that the title of savior should be able to give Harry special privileges.

It seemed that Dumbledore came here because of the commotion he had caused a few days ago. 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 highly.

Seeing that the old man was enjoying his meal, Mrs. Wick also looked happy.

After chatting for a while, Dumbledore got down to business.

"John, the Philosopher's Stone has been with you for some time."

When John heard this, he understood that the man was here to ask for the Philosopher's Stone.

Although he was a little reluctant, 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, there is no need to worry. The Philosopher's Stone has been announced to be destroyed. You still have one holiday to possess it."

"Then what is this?" John was confused. If he didn't come here for the Philosopher'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.

He is a living legend of alchemy, the only person in the world who created the Philosopher's Stone.

Thinking that his old friend was ready to die, Dumbledore felt that he also wanted to leave some stories for the wizarding world.

Well, a successor might be a good storyteller.

"John, if you don't have any other plans for your vacation, maybe we can go on a trip abroad. Of course, that requires your parents to agree to it."

disagree?

impossible!

John agreed almost without thinking.

If you ask who is the real master of alchemy in this world, it must be Nicolas Flamel.

John's magic sword is not ready yet, so how could he miss this opportunity?

After discussing it with his parents for a while, Watson passed it easily, but it was not so easy for Mrs. Wick.

When Mrs. Wick heard that he was going abroad, she became worried.

"Help me quickly."

"This is my wife."

"That?"

"You have to pay more!"

Finally, after eye contact between John and Watson, John agreed to buy Watson some Super Bubble Gum and Chocolate Frog, and also asked Basil to deliver letters to Watson's friends and Tom to perform at the party.

Mrs. Wick finally relented, but she required that she write a letter and send it home every week.

"If you don't write back, I'll tell your uncles."

This was the threat Mrs. Wick made to John. When John thought of those uncles, he felt that the threat was too cruel.

Mrs. Wick is a Slav, and her brothers are the kind of people who wrestle bears with their bare chests in winter.

When John was five years old, he went to his grandfather's house and saw with his own eyes how his uncle tamed a brown bear.

In order to please their nephew, they also planned to take John to the mountains to hunt. If he had not been scolded by Mrs. Wick, John would probably be an experienced hunter now.

After making an appointment with Dumbledore, John returned to the basement to pack up his things.

In fact, there are not too many things, but the magic stone and materials must be carefully kept.

After playing Frisbee with Tom, John saw Dumbledore in a new outfit.

Dumbledore suddenly had the urge to try a Muggle cruise.

What else could John do? It seemed that the plan of taking the portkey abroad could only be realized next time.

Chapter 37 Beauxbatons and the Exchange Students

Crossing the English Channel, the cruise ship arrives from the UK to France.

Pyrenees Mountains.

This is the natural border between France and Spain. Beauxbatons Castle is located in the middle of the mountainous landscape, creating a magical paradise.

If you ask British wizards which is the best magic school in the world, they will tell you Hogwarts without hesitation.

If you ask a French wizard, they will tell you that the British guy is talking nonsense and Beauxbatons is the best magic school.

The magnificent and romantic castle is the French people’s favorite French palace, and the magical gardens and fountains surround the school.
