Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

Chapter 820: The Effect of Phoenix Potion

The process of persuading the civet was very easy. Kyle just asked and ensured that there would be dried meat to eat every day. Shakir jumped on his shoulder without looking back. The whole process was smooth and smooth, without any pause at all.

Locknier looked behind and his mouth twitched.

Even though he had already agreed, he still felt a little panicked after seeing the scene in front of him. Even if Shakir hesitated... people who didn't know thought it was raised by Kyle.

So Locknir simply closed the door and kept out of sight.

On the other side, Kyle, who had gained a new partner, happily returned to the magic fountain and found Kangna, who was sitting on a chair by the fountain, writing something.

 “What are you writing?” he walked over and asked.

"Some potion combinations that may be useful." Kangna put away the parchment, "Are you done talking?"

"Well." Kyle smiled unconsciously, "I have to say, this time I really gained a lot."

 He briefly recounted what happened in the afternoon, and Kangna was also surprised when he heard it.

“That’s a civet cat. It’s a rare and magical animal unique to France. I’ll give it to you?”

"You lent it to me." Kyle corrected, "I'll have to pay it back later."

“That’s surprising,” said Kangna. “Although I haven’t been in France for a long time, I’ve heard about the status of civet cats in France... The bar next to Gringotts is called the Civet Bar.

"But this magical animal will only appear in the Ministry of Magic. Ordinary wizards are prohibited from raising it. It seems that this Locknir is also a great professor."

"Yeah." Kyle said, "I don't have any real skills, and it's impossible to be invited by people from the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary."

 “Fire Dragon Sanctuary?”

"Ah, that was a few years ago." Kyle explained: "Before our fourth grade started, it was also the first time I met Professor Locknear." Kyle said casually.

Kanna nodded and followed Kyle towards the restaurant.

 The dinner was not as luxurious and formal as the first day, but it was still very sumptuous.

“It’s truly France.” Kangna took a bite of the beef wrapped in bread. “Even if it’s just steak, I think it tastes better than the one at Hogwarts. I’ve gained weight from eating in the past two days.”

Kyle stared at his plate, saying nothing, not thinking about making any comment...just heard nothing.

Because he had something on his mind, he didn't stay here for long. After eating a few ham sandwiches in a hurry, he jogged all the way to the door of the alchemy class.

 Because the classes for the past two days have been postponed, and today is Saturday, there is no one in the corridor in front of the alchemy class classroom.

When Kyle rushed over, the door here was still locked, and there was a light on the door, which was flashing red light, exactly the same as when he came out three days ago.

Since he didn't know the specific time, Kyle didn't go back. Instead, he leaned on the railing, took out a book and started reading.

As time passed slowly, the sounds of play and slapstick that could be heard around them became smaller and smaller, and at a certain moment completely disappeared, and the alchemy elevator no longer worked.

 The empty corridor immediately fell into an eerie silence, with only the whine of the wind blowing through the corridor, and the vague ticking sound of the red light flashing on the wall.

Kyle closed the book in his hand and glanced at the time.

 Unknowingly, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

 No wonder the surroundings are so quiet. After all, even Beauxbatons is unlikely to let students wander around the school at this point.

Kyle moved his somewhat stiff arms and looked at the door of the alchemy classroom again...it was still closed.

 Perhaps Professor Victor meant that it would take three days, rather than waiting until the third day to complete it.

Kyle thought to himself.

Just when he was hesitating whether to go back first and come back tomorrow morning, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.

 Professor Victor walked out.

“You are there, I was just thinking about calling you.” His voice was a little weak.

Having worked for three days in a row, even with the support of magic power, it is not necessarily comfortable, but from the look of Professor Victor, it seems that he is used to this level of work.

 “Would you like to eat something first?” Kyle asked.

“There’s no rush, it’s only three days, the vitality potion I drank before is enough.” Victor waved his hand, “Come in with me, you still have a lot of things to do in the future.”

Kyle followed him into the classroom. As soon as he entered, Victor picked up the golden pocket watch on the table and put it into his hand.

All the cracks on it have disappeared, and the originally dark color has returned to brightness.

“I helped draw the frame of the magic text, and it took me a little more time.” Victor took off the strange gloves, carefully put them into a metal box, and put the long glasses on the table.

“It should save some time when you give it to Nico.”

 “Thank you.” Kyle said sincerely.

"No need." Victor waved his hand, "Since the things have been sent to me, it means that someone wants me to help, and I can't turn a blind eye.

“And Albus is one of the few masters of alchemy nowadays. It’s a pity to be lost in time like this.”

Just when Kyle was about to say something, he saw Victor shaking his head and saying:

"Okay, I found some very interesting things when I repaired the time turner this time. I need to study it. You go back first and go to Nico tomorrow."

 “I want to go now,” Kyle said.

 Fox had returned from Devon two days ago, and had brought a reply from Nico. He could go over at any time now.

"There's no need to worry," Victor said. "Nico still needs to make some preparations, which will take about five days. Even if you go now, you're still waiting. Since it's all about waiting, isn't it the same everywhere?"

 “Okay then.” Kyle nodded.

Victor closed the door again, eager to try his new idea, but this time, there was no red light on the wall.

 …

Although Victor felt that he could stay here for a while, Kyle insisted on leaving Beauxbatons the next day.

 After Ms. Maxim tried to stay a few times, she no longer persisted.

 Same as when they came, it was still Furong who sent them back.

A few people walked out of the school gate, and she spread the flying carpet on a big stone.

"Come up, where do you want to go next?" Fleur said, "How about going to see the performance of the Elf Dance Troupe? It's in Barnier de Bigor, not far away."

"No, you go ahead." Kyle shook his head and said, "I have something to do and I have to go back to England now."

"Go back now..." Furong asked doubtfully, "Are you in such a hurry?"

Kanna also looked at him.

“I also want to stay a little longer, but I heard something from Professor Victor and I’m very anxious, so...”

"It doesn't matter." Kang Na chuckled and said, "I just happen to have a new potion formula that needs to be verified, and I didn't want to run around anymore."

 She stepped forward and hugged Kyle, "Be sure to pay attention to safety when you go back."

"You too, if you encounter any trouble, just come to Ms. Maxim." Kyle said, "Don't be afraid of owing a favor. You can ask Professor Dumbledore to repay it later."

Connor was amused by his words and said angrily: "You said that, does Professor Dumbledore know?"

“I don’t know, but he wouldn’t mind,” Kyle said.

"Hey, are you two looking down on me too much?" Fleur said with a straight face, "This is France, even if there is any trouble, I can easily solve it."

“I’m sorry to bother you, but when you and Bill get married, I’ll give you a big gift.”

"This is what you said, what if I'm not satisfied." Furong raised her eyebrows, "I have very high standards."

 “Then change it until you are satisfied.”

Kyle smiled and then extended his hand.

Before Fleur could realize what he meant, a big golden-red bird fell from the sky. Kyle grabbed its tail feathers and disappeared with a bang.

"oh!"

Fleur was startled and couldn't help but raise her head, "Kanna, did you see it just now?"

“Yeah, I saw it.” Kangna looked at the place where Kyle disappeared and said softly. "What is that? It can't be a phoenix!"

"It's the Phoenix, called Fox." Connor said, "Remember? This is how Kyle came to France before."

 “It’s so convenient.” Fleur was a little envious, but it was not because of the phoenix’s ability to evade the Ministry of Magic’s investigation, but because that magical animal was so beautiful.

The golden-red feathers looked like gold in the flames in the sunlight, and its chirping sound, although short, was more beautiful than the grandest performance in the Magic Opera House.

"You think, can I also find the Phoenix?" Fleur looked at Kangna expectantly.

　　"Well...probably." Kangna said hesitantly, not wanting to break her friend's illusions, "The magic world is so big, there is always a chance."

"It would be nice if I could." Fleur looked at the sky for a while, trying to find traces of the phoenix. It was not until a few minutes later that she had no choice but to give up. She and Kangna took the flying carpet back to the shopping street.

 “What are you going to do next?” she asked.

Kanna thought for a while and said, "Let's keep it the same as before."

“But didn’t you say you wanted to test a new potion formula?”

 “That can be done anytime, there’s no rush.”

"But you have brewed a lot of potions these days." Fleur turned around, "I think it would be okay to relax and do something else."

"Not enough." Kangna shook her head slightly, "I think it would be better to prepare a little more."

 …

at the same time.

Kyle, who left Beauxbatons, was also taken to Nico Manor in Devon by Fox.

As soon as he landed, the house elf Tata ran over quickly.

 “The master asked me to wait here for you, sir.”

"Excuse me." Kyle patted his dizzy forehead, "Where's Nico?"

 “The master is in the alchemy room.” Tata said, “I will take Mr. there right now.”

One man and one elf walked into the manor. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but this time Kyle felt like he could pass through the originally huge courtyard very quickly.

But he didn't care about that at this time.

Tata took Kyle into a room on the right side of the hall, where the gold cup and locket had been placed.

Nico is here, staring at a red crucible, which contains a pot of golden potion, but with blue bubbles.

"I thought it would take two days for you to come." Nico raised his head, "Didn't Victor tell you that I need to prepare for a while?"

"I said it." Kyle nodded, "But I think it's better to come over as soon as possible, and I can help a little by the way."

“Although saying this may shock you, Kyle, I can do all this work alone, you really can’t help me.”

“Have you brought anything?” Nico asked, stretching out his hand.

"Bring it here." Kyle quickly took out the time turner that had already repaired its shell.

“Ah, it’s Victor’s workmanship.” Nico looked up and down and nodded with satisfaction, “Only he can do it so meticulously, it’s almost like new.”

 “You can’t do it either?”

"It was possible three hundred years ago, but now, he can do better than me." Nico stretched out his hand like a dead branch and clicked on the time turner.

  The golden case separated automatically, and the five hands also detached in order of length, falling neatly on the velvet cushion next to it.

 Then, Kyle's eyes only felt blurry, and he appeared in the living room.

“Sir, this is what the master has prepared for you.” Tata stood beside him holding a bottle of red potion, as if he had already guessed that Kyle would appear here.

 “What is this?” Kyle asked.

“Tata doesn’t know.” The elf said, “The master only told Tata that this would be helpful to Mr.

 “Um…Okay.” Kyle just thought for a moment, then picked up the potion and drank the potion in one gulp.

 It tastes pretty good, it’s raspberry flavored, like juice.

 But it’s definitely not juice. As for what it is, we can only ask Nico after he comes out.

Kyle returned the empty bottle to Tata. After taking it, he bent down and said, "Sir, Tata is going to prepare lunch."

“Wait a minute,” Kyle called to him. “Isn’t Mrs. Perenelle here?”

“The hostess went to France to watch the Elf Dance Troupe’s performance and will not come back until about two weeks later,” Tata said.

 Elf Dance Troupe?

Kyle always felt that this name was familiar, and he immediately remembered that this was the place recommended by Fleur. She also said that today happened to be the performance day of the dance troupe.

If he had agreed to Fleur's proposal, he might still be able to see Mrs. Perenelle there now.

 After leaving Beauxbatons, Kyle stayed at Nico Manor.

 But unlike the bustle at school, he was the only one here.

  Kyle originally wanted to develop a relationship with the civet Shakir, but unfortunately, as soon as he released it, Shakir's fur immediately exploded. His big blue eyes looked nervously at every corner around him, and he was extremely uneasy.

 It seems that there is something terrible around it that is stimulating its nerves.

Kyle thinks that this should be some protective magic around the manor, such as the alchemical fire dragon at the door. In a sense, this place is indeed full of dangers.

In order to make the civet relax, Kyle could only put it back into the box again, in the room where he stored his belongings and temporarily rested.

There is no other way. There are fire dragons, basilisks, and poisonous leopards in his box... These will also make the civet cat with keen perception explode. Only that room can make Shakir feel a little more at ease.

 At any rate, Kyle didn’t need it for the time being, so he gave it to it.

 …

 A few more days passed like this.

While reading a book, Kyle suddenly felt the light dim. When he looked up again, he appeared in the alchemy room again.

 “Have you finished it?” He quickly closed the book in his hand and asked.

“That’s right, but it’s just necessary preparation work, not a formal repair.” Nico said.

Kyle noticed that the potion in the crucible had changed from gold to dark blue.

Nico took out a small bottle and shook it in front of him.

 “Remember what this is?”

“That potion that can bring people back to life that Kangna brought before?” Kyle returned tentatively.

This potion was so powerful that he couldn't help but take a second look at it and remembered it clearly.

"That's right, Phoenix potion." Nico opened the bottle and poured the contents into the crucible. The dark blue potion immediately turned into gold and formed a small vortex.

"Originally, the defects of this time turner cannot be eliminated, but the appearance of this thing has changed things." Nico sighed: "After all, Mr. Salazar Slytherin is the magician written with Phoenix potion. arts."

Nico waved his hand holding the wand lightly, and the potion in the crucible turned into a golden ribbon, which floated to the time turner that had been opened, and automatically produced golden magic words one by one.

"This process will take some time." Nico looked at Kyle again, "I asked you to come this time because we still lack another material to repair the magic stone that has completely lost its magic power."

 “What is it?” Kyle asked.

 “The ashes left after the Phoenix’s rebirth.”

 …
