From Hogwarts to Strixhaven
Chapter 126 Compensation Options
"About the Philosopher's Stone... the situation is a little complicated..." Ivy didn't think of denying that he took the Philosopher's Stone, but it was not easy to explain where it went, so he had to talk about some repetitive things to delay the situation so that he could have time to think about the countermeasures carefully. "It's a long story. Since I took the Philosopher's Stone from the Mirror of Erised, some accidents have happened..."
"Don't worry, tell me slowly. Nicolas Flamel has lived for more than 600 years, and he still has a long time." Dumbledore said with a smile.
"Headmaster, if you must let me explain it clearly, then I can only say..." Ivy paused and continued, "I ate it."
"..." Ivy saw the puzzled expression on Dumbledore's face with ravines for the first time, "Are we talking about some kind of candy? What did you eat?"
"The Philosopher's Stone. I ate the Philosopher's Stone." Ivy had to make it clear.
"You ate the Philosopher's Stone?" Dumbledore's blue eyes, usually hidden behind half-moon glasses, widened and repeated Ivy's words, "How could it be? ... Although I don't deny that it looks beautiful, but ... it's a stone?"
"I couldn't help it." Ivy admitted.
"What does it taste like?" Dumbledore asked again, "Like candy?"
"Well... like some kind of fruit hard candy... but each bite tastes different." Ivy recalled carefully, "I feel like I should taste strawberry, chocolate and hazelnut... If I have to describe it, every bite is the taste of happiness."
Dumbledore smacked his lips hidden behind his white beard, as if he was imagining what the "taste of happiness" described by Ivy was like: "Does the Philosopher's Stone... have any bad magical effects on your body? I think it is very dangerous to eat a highly concentrated magic power directly into your stomach."
"It really changed my body." Ivy waved his sleeves and removed his disguise, changing from the middle-aged wizard Victor with a full beard to the handsome young wizard Ivy Doom.
"You seem to have grown up overnight, Ivy!" Dumbledore looked up and down at the handsome young man in front of him. His upright figure was almost on par with the old wizard, and no one would think he was a quasi-second-year student.
"Don't say that, Dumbledore." Ivy rolled his eyes. He didn't like people talking about his age. "I'm a few years older than you."
"If I had known that the Philosopher's Stone tasted like happiness, I might have eaten it long ago." Dumbledore sighed, "But... you have to understand, Ivy... the Philosopher's Stone doesn't belong to me... not even to Hogwarts. It's just kept here temporarily..."
"Then... I can pay a certain amount of compensation." Ivy thought for a while, "10,000 gold galleons or equivalent magic props, or a chance to remove the curse, even if it's the werewolf curse, it should be possible. Or make someone 30 years younger, but this won't change his life span, just make his body 30 years younger, or I can help Nick Flamel resurrect a dead person."
When Dumbledore heard the compensation options proposed by Ivy, he was calm at first. When he heard about removing the werewolf curse, he slightly moved his eyebrows, and he couldn't close his mouth when he heard about rejuvenation and resurrection from the dead.
"You can... revive someone? Are you kidding, Ivy?" Dumbledore was a little out of control, but he still tried to calm down, and asked with a trembling voice.
"Of course not a joke. This is the secret I learned from the Philosopher's Stone." Ivy nodded. He knew that Dumbledore had an obsession with resurrecting someone, otherwise when he saw the resurrection stone on the Gaunt family ring, which was Voldemort's Horcrux, he would not have worn it on his hand so out of control that he was cursed by Voldemort.
"That's really..." Dumbledore took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "I can write to Nick about your compensation options, but I don't know how he will respond."
It seems that Dumbledore is skeptical about Ivy's ability to resurrect the dead.
This is a matter of course. He has lived in the magic world for more than a hundred years and has never heard of anything like this, except for the legendary Deathly Hallows. Including the Elder Wand and the Invisibility Cloak of the Potter family, he once held two Deathly Hallows at the same time, but he did not find any special features of them, so Dumbledore only regarded the so-called Deathly Hallows that could fight against the god of death as very powerful magic props in the legend.
Therefore, he was skeptical about the legend of the Resurrection Stone, not to mention Ivy who suddenly claimed that he could resurrect the dead, even if he swallowed the only Philosopher's Stone in the world.
"Okay." Ivy breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was temporarily over. As for what to do with Nicolas Flamel, we will take it one step at a time. Anyway, Ivy is unlikely to spit out the Philosopher's Stone again. As for compensation, it is only limited to letting him use the Philosopher's Stone once.
That is a prop that can resurrect the dead, and how many people dream of it. But if Nicolas Flamel wants to use it a few more times, Ivy will not refuse. After all, this is also the end of his immortality, and Ivy is still a little bit guilty.
However, he vaguely remembered that in the original book, Nick Flamel and his wife voluntarily gave up their immortality, which means that the immortality obtained by using the Philosopher's Stone must have some degree of defects, and it is not the eternal youth and infinite lifespan that people imagine.
Anyway, Ivy would not believe that a young man who was energetic, ate everything, and was in good health would think about dying, not to mention that he had money that he could never spend.
"For an old man, everything today is too unexpected." Dumbledore shook his head and looked at the calm surface of the Black Lake. The big squid on the shore returned to the Black Lake at some point. "Whether it is the fire dragon raised in the castle or the Philosopher's Stone that you ate."
No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one forum!
Ivy did not speak, and used magic to turn himself into Professor Victor again. The two of them basked in the sun quietly for a while.
"You can look forward to the dinner tonight, Ivy." Dumbledore suddenly said, "The house-elves have prepared quite a rich variety of dishes, and there is also my favorite lemon ice cream."
"Their cooking skills are always great." Ivy nodded. He already had a goal for the summer vacation. He went to the House-Elf Resettlement Office under the Alien Office of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic to find a house-elf willing to serve him.
Although the ownerless house-elves like to go to Hogwarts to find jobs, what if they can find a loophole?
