Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts

#163 - Magical Talent Test

Lynn Bailey had already begun managing all the business of the Bailey Trading Company at the age of fifteen.

This was the important task her father entrusted to her before his death, and he also instructed her uncle, Ryan Bailey, to assist her.

However, with such a large family business, there were bound to be people who were not convinced, so Lynn had the experience of being poisoned by her cousin.

It was this lesson that made Lynn realize that to truly control the trading company, she had to master powerful strength, and now the opportunity to obtain that strength was with the young wizard in front of her.

"Miss Bailey, I must remind you that there is no such thing as perfect magic in this world, only what is suitable for oneself."

Although Munn has only been studying magic for three months, he has been exposed to more magic than most wizards in this world.

This book is first published on π•₯ 𝕨 π•œ 𝕒 π•Ÿ . 𝕔 𝕠 π•ž.

It is precisely because of this that he knows that even the magic of Hogwarts has areas that need improvement.

"But Mr. Scarlett, shouldn't I first choose the most perfect magic possible to learn, and then make it the perfect magic that suits me?"

Lynn Bailey was able to completely take over the Bailey Trading Company in two years, and her eloquence and logical abilities are far greater than those of ordinary people.

Even though Munn had learned a little from Ron, he had no chance of winning in front of this trading company's head.

Especially Lynn Bailey's words about choice reminded Munn of what the Sorting Hat had said to him.

【Choice is greater than blind effort.】

This sentence was very applicable to Munn in the past, but it is different for Lynn now.

Because the person she chose does not accept her choice.

"I'm very sorry, Miss Bailey, I hardly have time to teach others magic now."

Seeing Munn say these words solemnly, Lynn was disappointed at first, but then immediately regained her smile.

"Of course, I can understand. Even if you saw my magical talent first, I cannot force you to teach me magic."

Hearing that the other party could understand, Munn immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He was actually a little afraid that the other party would pester him relentlessly, which might affect his procurement of supplies through the Bailey Trading Company.

However, hearing Lynn Bailey mention testing magical talent reminded Munn of something.

"Miss Bailey, could I study the magical talent testing device that you said you bought back from the Wizarding Association?"

Munn still remembered undergoing a magical test when he was 7 years old in Xilin.

The testing process involved a caster pressing down on each child's head, casting some kind of sensing magic.

Munn didn't know what the content of this magic was, but he knew that the success rate of this magic should not be very high.

Of course, besides that, Munn had also experienced another type of magic detection.

That was the mysterious Hogwarts acceptance letter.

Ron had told him that Hogwarts had never missed a single eligible young wizard.

This extremely high success rate came from two magical alchemical items: the Quill of Acceptance and the Book of Admittance.

Most outsiders, even the school's professors, could not see these two items.

And Munn had recently been studying alchemy, and based on his current experience.

The level of alchemical items that can test a wizard's talent would be very high.

This made Munn very curious, what exactly was the alchemical creation that the Bailey family bought back from the Wizarding Association?

"Of course, although this alchemical item is very precious, it has been placed for five years without being used.

I'll have someone get it right away."

After Lynn Bailey finished speaking, she looked at the maid beside her, and then the other party nodded and left the room.

"By the way, Mr. Scarlett, judging from your accent, you should be from the mainland, right? '

"That's right, Xilin Town, Liuyun City."

Seeing that the other party readily agreed to lend the alchemical item, Munn also happily responded.

"Oh, a federal coastal town, but you don't seem to be a caster, do you? "

Hearing Lynn continue to inquire, Munn instantly stared at the other party.

"Oh, don't mind me, I'm just very curious about your origins."

In Lynn Bailey's view, since Munn came from the Federation and did not participate in the war, then he is not a caster.

And he has not seen the Wizarding Association's testing device, so he is not a wizard from the Wizarding Association either.

And Munn himself possesses very profound magic, which is obviously not the ability possessed by those hidden wizards who independently study magic.

While Lynn was thinking about the problem, Munn saw a bit of Hermione's potential in her.

It's just that this woman seems to be even more powerful.

Just as Lynn Bailey was constantly thinking, her maid brought back a silver box.

Seeing the other party come back, Munn immediately stepped forward and took the box, then nodded to Lynn as a sign of gratitude.

"It's already very late today, the patient needs to rest early, so I won't disturb you. As for this thing,

I will send it back immediately after I finish studying it."

After Munn finished speaking, without waiting for the other party to say anything, he directly left this room filled with fragrance. "Miss, you just let him take it away like that? Aren't you afraid he'll tear it apart? That's an item that the family spent 100,000 gold coins to buy back."

The maid became a little anxious when she saw that Lynn didn't stop him.

"What's there to be afraid of? Mr. Scarlett is not a reckless person, and besides, there's no need to keep a device that didn't test my talent."

Lynn Bailey had no interest in the 100,000 gold coin alchemical creation. She was more curious about Munn as a person.

"What a mysterious young man, I'm becoming more and more interested in him."

Munn was not aware of Lynn Bailey's thoughts. After leaving this room, he saw Downs waiting in the corridor.

Under the guidance of this acquaintance, he left the castle again and returned to the Crimson Moon outside.

After entering his laboratory, Munn directly opened the silver box.

Inside was an alchemical item with a gold main body, and a rectangular folded page.

Munn first opened the folded page, which contained the introduction and instructions for using this magical device.

Lasco Magic Tester.

One of the most important alchemical items of the Wizarding Association, its main body is an operating device refined from mithril.

It is engraved with very complex magic runes and patterns.

A circular crystal ball is embedded on top of this device, and the ball is filled with a transparent liquid.

"According to what it says on the folded page, this liquid is called Lasco liquid, and was accidentally discovered by a wizard of the same name."

The most important part of the entire device is this extremely unstable liquid.

As long as the temperature changes slightly, it will vaporize and solidify, and the color will also change accordingly.

Its testing principle is that the test subject places their hands on both sides of the mithril device.

Then the magic circle above will automatically probe the trace amounts of magic in the test subject's body.

When it can detect the presence of magical power, the Lasco liquid in the crystal ball will change, thereby being able to test magical talent.

Munn now knew four ways to test a wizard's magical talent.

The first was the sensing magic of a caster, which he had personally experienced.

The second type is the meditation induction method for the faithless, as described by Lynn Bailey.

The third type is the Hogwarts Acceptance Quill and the Book of Admittance.

The last type is the Raskol Magic Tester that Mune is currently studying.

After retrieving this alchemical item, Mune first tried it out himself.

He followed the instructions on the leaflet and placed his hands on both sides of the mithril base.

Then, he felt a warm sensation coming from the alchemical item.

Next, a red light flashed across the magical runes on the secret realm device, and Mune saw a dramatic change in the liquid inside the crystal ball.

First, it started to boil, and the color turned red.

Then, the boiling liquid lined up and ran to the walls of the crystal ball.

Moreover, the color depth was constantly increasing, and the liquid was boiling and moving violently, as if trying to escape.

Seeing this strange scene, Mune abruptly released his hands.

Then, he saw the Raskol liquid unwillingly return to the bottom of the crystal ball.

"The leaflet didn't say that such a dramatic change would occur?

According to the instructions accompanying this alchemical item, the device doesn't have the function of testing a wizard's strength; it can only sense the presence of magical energy.

Therefore, the greatest change that the Raskol liquid usually undergoes is solidification or boiling, followed by a slight change in color.

But when Mune tested himself just now, he found that this liquid was like it had come to life, wanting to get as close to him as possible.

"There must be something wrong with this device; otherwise, why couldn't it even test Lynn Bailey's magical talent?"

When Mune was studying at Hogwarts, Hermione once told him that there wasn't much difference in the talent of wizards.

But Mune knew that this statement wasn't entirely accurate.

Because he already knew through the Wizarding Articles that some wizards were indeed stronger in certain fields than others.

Also, the strong change that just occurred in the device made Mune suspect that there were indeed differences in wizards' talents.

When Mune was chatting with his roommates in the dormitory, he learned that every young wizard had already shown some magical characteristics before entering school.

Harry was able to make the glass in the zoo disappear.

Neville was able to keep his body floating in mid-air.

Seamus was able to set his family's study on fire with a scream.

Of course, through these special events, Mune didn't know who had the greater talent.

But in comparison, Mune's magical talent was revealed more bizarrely.

He was able to travel through worlds.

"Hopefully, Hermione is right, and a wizard's talent can't be tested."

After testing it once, Mune no longer directly touched the testing device with his hands, but instead put on gloves and took out his monocle.

Through the monocle, Mune discovered that the Raskol Magic Tester was of a much higher level than the alchemical key.

It emitted a golden-white light overall, but the color wasn't as rich as the Old Willow Wand.

After checking the level, Mune began to copy the alchemical runes on it in order.

Because this item still had to be returned to the Bailey family, and Mune wanted to study the best way, naturally, he had to copy down the mysterious runes on it.

The five sides of the magic tester's base were engraved with dense runes, which formed a series of nested magic arrays.

The edges of four of the magic arrays extended directly to the bottom of the crystal ball.

They were probably the ones that transmitted magical energy to the Raskol liquid.

Although Mune couldn't understand it yet, he knew that such an alchemical creation might be hard to come by again, so he copied it very carefully.

In the following two days, Mune read in the Bailey family's library during the day, and returned to the ship at night to copy the rune magic arrays.

In that small library, Mune discovered a hidden secret door leading to a deeper place through the monocle.

He guessed that it was where the Bailey family's true magical heritage secrets were.

However, he wasn't interested in those; the Hogwarts library was already enough for him to study.

On the evening of the second day of studying the magic tester, the veterans sent out by Zalan returned.

"We followed that ship for a long distance and found that after it left the waterway, it went north all the way; it should be returning to Nitz Harbor."

Holt took a big gulp of water before slowly speaking after he came back.

Nitz Harbor was exactly where Mune came from; he also solved the two wizards of the Faithless there.

Mune didn't know if this wizard named Montoya was going to investigate the disappearance of his subordinates.

Anyway, as far as Mune was concerned, since the other party didn't plan to deepen the conflict, he had no intention of provoking the Faithless.

"Okay, in that case, let's say goodbye to the Bailey family tomorrow and leave Meyerzburg the day after tomorrow." After Mune and Zalan discussed it, they decided on the upcoming departure schedule.

However, before their small meeting was over, Lance came to the outside of the room.

"Mr. Scarlett, there is a member of the Bailey family below the ship who says he has important business to see you."

"See me? Ask him to come up."

Mune hadn't intervened in the matters between Ryan Bailey and Lynn in the past two days.

He originally thought that the two sides no longer planned to look for him, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't avoid it.

Soon, Lance led a person up from below the ship, and Mune recognized the other party with just one glance.

"You are the attendant beside Mr. Ryan Bailey?"

"Yes, Mr. Scarlett."

Mune remembered very clearly that when he first came to Meyerzburg, it was this attendant who cut his palm to test the hemostatic potion.

Zalan also knew the other party's identity, so after seeing the other party, he immediately walked in front of Mune, blocking the other party's most likely attack route.

"Mr. Scarlett, I have no malice; I just want to tell you that Montoya's ship didn't leave, but is hidden in a hidden corner of a fjord."

Hearing the other party say this, Mune couldn't help but take a breath, but before he could say anything, Holt next to him stood out.

"How is that possible? We followed him for two days and found that he went north."

"You only followed him for the first half of the journey. After returning to Nitz Harbor, he quickly returned along the original route,

and I was riding a horse and saw you on the road."

After hearing the attendant's explanation, Holt didn't argue anymore, because he really didn't know that the ship had returned.

"Sorry, I will definitely investigate carefully next time."

After knowing that what the attendant said was likely the truth, Holt bowed to Mune and Zalan.

"You don't have to say that, Uncle Holt. I think as long as we settle down, you can also ride horses every day; after all, this is also Brad's wish."

After comforting the veteran, Mune turned to look at the attendant in front of him.

"Sir, why are you helping me? Did Mr. Ryan ask you to do this?"
