Chapter 434: Chapter 141: The Mystery of Ian and the Black Phoenix (Part 2)
"Professor, I’m just a first-year student and haven’t reached the year where I can elect to study Alchemy, but I think I’m certainly qualified to follow you in learning it."
Ian’s voice was very confident.
This piqued Nicolas Flal’s interest.
He could certainly understand the aning behind Albus Dumbledore’s words, but he wasn’t too familiar with this little wizard who seed to have taken the "Savior" task.
Sotis, even strong magic power and impressive spells don’t guarantee thorough mastery in Alchemy. This world is fair; even the most talented individuals have so areas where they fall short.
"Your na, is it Ian Prince?"
Nicolas Flal first opened his mouth to ask.
Seeing the little wizard nodding his head.
He looked Ian over, "I think you show great talent in Magic Potion as well, mm, not just inherited, but also evident from the potion you threw at that person we can see this."
As a six-hundred-year-old powerful Alchemist, Nicolas Flal was even attempting to create the Elixir of Immortality. He had certainly realized that the potion Ian threw at Voldemort wasn’t sothing that could be simply concocted; the principles and wild imagination it contained were reasons for his interest in Ian.
To beco an outstanding Alchemist, imagination is more important than anything else.
"Magic Potion is just my hobby; Alchemy is my lifelong passion." Ian boasted, using his thick-skinned talent for flattering Alchemists.
This tactic made Nicolas Flal quite pleased.
"You really like Alchemy? Good kid."
No doubt.
Even his address to Ian changed.
"Of course, Professor, I started self-teaching Alchemy before enrolling." Ian said, intending to show his works, but after searching through his money bag, he only found the "Enhanced Bone Crushing and Ash Scattering Box."
Taking this out... wouldn’t it lower the opposite party’s goodwill?
Ian hesitated a bit.
And at that mont.
Smiling, Nicolas Flal opened his mouth and continued.
"From what happened just now, I’ve discovered your extraordinary talent in magic... No, perhaps we should already use remarkable achievents to comnd your skills in the Magic Domain."
"I believe neither Albus nor anyone else I know possesses such a terrifying starting point as you, perhaps your brilliance already compares to rlin."
"However, despite that, Alchemy for you will also be a brand new challenge. Although it is a type of magic, it’s absolutely different from those you usually learn."
"Learning the content in "Alchemy Introduction" is the threshold to entering this domain. And before studying it, "Magic Syllable Chart" and "Ancient Magical Language Easy Introduction" will lay a solid foundation for you."
Nicolas Flal was clearly very adept at guiding students; one sentence covered how to enter the realm of Alchemy. The two books ntioned by this six-hundred-year-old man correspond to the basis of modern Alchemy and ancient Alchemy—modern Alchemy techniques born from Spells and ancient Alchemy techniques utilizing Ancient Magic Rune.
No doubt.
Nicolas Flal’s recomndation was indeed suitable for beginners.
However.
"Umm..."
Ian hesitated a bit upon hearing Nicolas Flal’s words.
He began pondering how to politely tell Nicolas Flal that he could already, through Alchemy, create a fully automatic Alchemy Guard capable of seriously thrashing little wizards.
"Don’t worry, learn slowly, I’ll be at Hogwarts for quite a few years." Nicolas Flal obviously misunderstood a bit, soothing Ian with a calm expression.
He indeed had no knowledge of Ian’s learning progress in Alchemy.
"Professor..."
Ian watched Nicolas Flal turn to research The Mirror of Erised and, after pondering for a mont, decisively chose to display his current level directly to Nicolas Flal.
"I’ve actually already started researching how to replicate the Room of Requirent..." Ian, fearing Nicolas Flal might not know about the Room of Requirent, pulled out heaps of disassembly formulas written down during his research—he retrieved thousands of scraps of parchnt densely covered in Rune Language from his money bag.
Looking down at the papers on the ground, Nicolas Flal was completely stunned.
"?????"
He fell into a long period of silence.
Nicolas Flal suddenly realized he probably still underestimated the child that Albus Dumbledore praised highly.
At this mont.
"I told you, he is excellent." Albus Dumbledore, checking Voldemort’s body, suddenly looked up with a smiling face at Nicolas Flal and said.
"..."
Nicolas Flal opened his mouth.
This is beyond excellent!
You’ve been learning since you were in the womb, haven’t you!
Nicolas Flal suddenly realized he knew almost nothing about the child in front of him.
"What year are you in?"
He inquired in a complicated tone.
"First year, Professor."
Ian tried hard to show his obedient disguise.
"When did you first encounter Alchemy?"
Nicolas Flal’s eye twitched clearly a few tis. He evidently thought Ian’s age would be greater, never expecting he was actually just a beginner.
"A week before school started?"
Ian couldn’t quite rember the exact ti.
