Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

It was extremely quiet in the Magic Garden. Even the noisy mountain fairy was nowhere to be seen. Only the occasional sigh or two came from the depths of the garden.

"Hello, is there anyone here?" After Dean arrived here, he felt an extremely depressing atmosphere.

"Who are you?" A white-haired old woman stood up from the grass tremblingly.

Dean recognized her at a glance as Mrs. Flamel, Perenal.

"Ms. Perenal? Or would you rather have me call you Mrs. Flamel?" Dean confirmed.

"As you like. You are..." Perenal looked a little distracted.

"I'm Andy White, I came here specially from Hogwarts." Dean introduced himself.

"Coming to see Nico?" Perenal immediately guessed Dean's purpose.

"That's it."

In order to maintain respect, he stood still after Perenal appeared.

Seeing that Perenal didn't seem to be on guard at this moment, Dean tentatively took two steps ahead.

"Speaking of which, we haven't been to Hogwarts for a long time. Since you can come here, it means you don't have any ill intentions." Perenaar nodded at Dean.

"Of course. I admire you very much." Dean said and took a few steps forward.

Only then did he notice that the flower elf Eve was lying on the ground, and an old man next to her was pouring bottles of magic potion into her.

If nothing unexpected happens, this old man should be Nico Flamel. Unfortunately, he does not have the grace of a master alchemist now, and instead looks a little confused.

Dean couldn't help but be surprised. It seemed that Eve was far more important to the Flamel couple than imagined.

"What happened to Eve?" Dean asked concerned.

Although they haven't been together for a long time, Dean feels that he and Eve are quite compatible. There is always an illusion that Eve is like his little sister Knightley.

"I'm afraid you can't be of much help." Perenaar looked carefully and found that Dean looked no more than 20 years old, and was a little disappointed.

"By the way, do you know a man named Du Plessis in the church?" Dean knew that it would be difficult to win the trust of the LeMays at once, but fortunately he was prepared.

"Diplessi? Did he send you here?" Nico Flamel finally raised his head after hearing the name and looked at Dean in surprise, "Forgive me, you must be a wizard, right? At least it's impossible. It’s a church person.”

"I am indeed a wizard." Dean had actually said that he was from Hogwarts when he introduced himself just now, but unfortunately Nico Flamel obviously didn't pay attention.

Flamel couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Diplessi sent you here? How could he find a wizard?"

"To be precise, I found him and learned about your whereabouts from him. I have something to ask you for help," Dean said.

"I'm really sorry. You should have seen that we are very busy right now, and I'm afraid we won't be able to meet any of your requests." Perenal said worriedly, looking at Eve who seemed to be sleeping.

After Flamel knew Dean's purpose, he didn't even bother to pay attention to him.

"Eve and I are pretty good friends. What happened to her? Maybe I can help." Dean recommended, "My potion skills are pretty good."

"Magic potion?" Flamel looked up at Dean, shook his head and said, "Eve's troubles cannot be solved by potions."

Dean was also a little embarrassed. Showing off his potion skills in front of Flamel was indeed humiliating himself. Unfortunately, he could only open a gap from this aspect.

"If the potion doesn't work, maybe try the church's method?" Dean squatted next to Flamel and stretched out his left hand to him.

In the palm of his hand, a mysterious rune shone brightly.

If it was not clear what Duplesi's intention was at the beginning, then Dean has now guessed the purpose of the soul rune.

"This is...the soul rune?" Flamel was so shocked that she raised her head with a complicated expression.

"Diplessi asked me to tell you that he is a man of his word." Dean smiled.

"Nico~ He really didn't lie to us!" Perenal's eyes flashed with tears of excitement.

"He did not betray our trust." Flamel also breathed a sigh of relief. "It is true that we called him the elixir in advance."

The two exchanged glances, both looking a little uncomfortable.

Dean had just made it clear that he was asking for something from them. Although they had already given Duplessi the reward for using the soul rune in advance, the soul rune was in Dean's hands at the moment, which meant that they were likely to have to pay another amount. Just give Dean a share of the price.

"Does Eve need soul runes?" Dean pretended not to see their expressions and checked Eve's status.

Eve seemed to be asleep on the surface, but Dean could sense through the soul runes that her soul was very unstable, as if it was in danger of collapse at any time.

Coupled with the effect of the soul rune, Dean now knows better.

It seems that Eve is not entirely an artificial creature. To be precise, the Flamel couple's superb alchemy technology only created a body to house Eve's soul.

This would explain why they come to Beauxbatons once a year.

On the surface it was to adjust Eve's functions and replenish her energy, but in reality it was to check whether her body and soul were compatible so that adjustments could be made in a timely manner.

The Flamel couple didn't expect Dean to be able to guess so much with just a guess. Seeing Dean ask, they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy: "Are you... willing to use the soul rune on Eve?"

"Of course! Eve and I are friends after all!" Dean replied without hesitation.

Flamel and his wife breathed a sigh of relief, and Perenal promised anxiously: "As long as you can use the soul rune to stabilize Eve's condition, no matter what your request, we can agree to it."

"Mrs. Flamel, I don't want to use the soul rune to blackmail you, but I checked Eve's situation and found that the soul rune is not necessarily suitable for her." Dean's answer immediately made the Flamel couple blush. They had just said to him The good feeling that arose was gone.

"What do you mean?" Perenal's tone became stiff.

"Don't get me wrong, I have no ill intentions, I'm just telling the truth. Of course, if you insist on using the soul rune on her, I respect your choice." Seeing that there seemed to be a misunderstanding between the two, Dean quickly explained.

"I would like to ask you to use the soul rune on Eve now." Perenal's tone was a little hesitant. She knew that saying this was a bit too direct, but she had to test it like this.

"No problem." Dean put his left hand on Eve's forehead, "The soul rune can stabilize the soul. After using it on Eve, her soul will no longer be in danger of collapse; but there is a side effect I must remind you. ."

"What side effects? Du Plessis never mentioned it!" Perenal immediately screamed, and at the same time roughly pushed Dean's hand away from Eve's forehead.
