Chương 194: Senior! You Have To Be Sensible! Not There!(1)
Principal's office.
"The detention period is extended by half a month. You will be deducted ten points. Sword will also be confiscated," Dumbledore said with a smile, sitting on his chair.
"Do you have any objections to this punishment?"
Blake's face showed disappointment. Then he shook his head. "No objections... Professor."
Dumbledore picked up Blake's large sword and carefully examined the ancient runic inscriptions on it.
"This ancient runic inscription was taught to you by Professor Bathsheda, right?" Blake nodded.
"Well... it's a very good alchemical tool. Although the materials are not the best, the craftsmanship is excellent," Dumbledore praised Blake's alchemy.
Mistakes were mistakes, and points should be deducted. But Blake's craftsmanship was indeed very good.
"Very well, excellent alchemy. I have to add ten points to you,"
Dumbledore said in one sentence, restoring the points Blake had just lost.
Blake straightened his chest.
'See, this is the power of connections! Do you admit defeat or not?'
Dumbledore continued to look at the large sword in his hand.
"The energy source is... hmm?"
Alchemy tools needed energy sources to function. Most alchemical products had an energy source engraved with ancient runic inscriptions inside.
Although stable, these energy sources needed to be replaced frequently.
But Blake's large sword...
After careful examination, Dumbledore discovered that the energy source of this flying sword was not the meagre magic provided by ancient runic inscriptions.
"Philosopher fire?"
Dumbledore looked at the small flame sealed in the gem and then looked at Blake with emotion.
"With the Philosopher fire as the energy source, the value of this sword has increased at least tenfold...
Dumbledore's offer was still conservative.
Using the Philosopher's Fire as the energy source, meant that the energy of this sword was basically endless.
There was no need to replace any parts. And... with the Philosopher's Fire as the energy source...
The magical power it provided was not comparable to the magical power provided by a few ancient artifacts like the Philosopher's Stone!
However...
"Where did you get the Philosopher's Fire?" Dumbledore looked at Blake and asked.
Blake took out a book from his pocket. It was Nicolas Flamel's manuscript.
"Mr. Flamel's manuscript recorded that the Philosopher's Fire was the best alchemical energy source. So... I used it... as for how I got it..."
Blake made a gesture. His Frost Phoenix appeared on his arm.
"The fire it spews is the Philosopher's Fire." Blake lied without batting an eye.
"Huh?"
The Frost Phoenix looked at Blake curiously.
"Show off your skills!" Blake blinked at her.
The Frost Phoenix tilted her head and thought for a moment. Then she opened her mouth...
"Hoo!"
A large amount of Philosopher's Fire spewed out.
Dumbledore quickly stood up and swiftly drew his wand to control the Philosopher's Fire.
"Oh, you are a little troublemaker." Dumbledore couldn't help but reprimand.
This fire almost set the headmaster's office on fire.
In theory, Blake currently did not have the conditions to learn how to summon the Philosopher's Fire.
So, he couldn't tell Dumbledore that he had already learned this fire magic.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to explain where he learned it from.
However, after the Frost Phoenix devoured the Philosopher's Fire earlier, she gained the ability to spew this kind of flame herself.
So, before Blake revealed his great sword, he had already planned to let the Frost Phoenix take the blame.
For now, it seemed to be working well. Clearly, Dumbledore now believed Blake's explanation.
And then, Blake was kicked out of the headmaster's office.
Dumbledore looked at the sword in his hand. And the controlled, floating ancient fire of Hufflepuff.
"Perhaps, this should be shown to Nico," Dumbledore said.
Dumbledore's face showed a proud expression as if he wanted to show off his own child.
As they left the headmaster's office, Blake's disappointed expression disappeared.
He believed that Dumbledore would definitely show the sword he made to Nicolas Flamel.
This was exactly his purpose in openly manipulating the flying sword.
He wanted to stimulate Nicolas Flamel once again.
Let him know that alchemy still had many exciting aspects.
This was telling him that although he had climbed to the top, there were still many views obstructed by clouds.
He hadn't fully seen them yet.
This was to temporarily make Nico Leme give up the idea of death.
Live for another ten or twenty years.
As for the flying sword, it didn't matter if it was confiscated. Because Blake could make more than one!
When Blake was preparing to return to the dormitory, he received a note from Professor Babbling.
She told Blake that tonight's detention location was not in her office, but had been changed it to the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
This made Blake somewhat puzzled.
Why would you go to the Forbidden Forest to study ancient languages?
Also, running out of the castle and going to the Forbidden Forest at eight o'clock at night, would that be a violation of school rules?
It was already 7:50 in the evening. Night had fallen.
When Blake passed by Hagrid's hut, and walked to the edge of the Forbidden Forest,
he immediately saw three figures at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
One was the tall and burly Hagrid.
The other person talking to him was Professor Babbling.
But the third person surprised Blake.
"Penny, you're also in detention?"
"Peh, you're the one who was in detention first," Penelope said angrily.
"Ah... I was indeed in here first," Blake said helplessly.
"You... I don't even know if you're intentionally avoiding me."
"After finally finishing solitary confinement, I thought you could finally come and teach me duelling."
"But after a few days later, you were in solitary confinement again..."
"Other people's solitary confinement lasts a few days, at most a week."
"But you, as soon as you're confined, it's a minimum of half a month..."
Listening to Penelope's complaints, Blake shrugged, "I didn't know that flying swords weren't allowed at Hogwarts..."
At this moment, Hagrid and Professor Babbling finished speaking.
After he came over, he looked at Blake with a strange gaze.
"Why are you always being put in solitary confinement, and each time it's so long..."
"Alright... someone has already complained about it, Hagrid..." Blake helplessly interrupted Hagrid's spellcasting.
Hagrid's words were interrupted, feeling somewhat helpless.
"Alright... by the way, when your solitary confinement is over, go back to the castle obediently."
"And don't sneak into the Forbidden Forest. I know you have a habit of doing that."
"I know," Blake said.
"Professor Babbling, I'll go first," Hagrid said and left.
Professor Babbling walked over.
Excitement was evident on her beautiful face.
"You're here! Great, let's go in."
Professor Babbling said as she wanted to rush into the Forbidden Forest.
"Uh... wait a moment," Blake stopped Professor Babbling.
"Don't you plan on explaining the situation first?"
"Also, why is Senior Penelope here?"
Although Professor Babbling was a bit anxious,
she still had patience for Blake.
"Tonight is practice time!"
"Did you forget? We are different from those classical conservatives, you know."
"Only they would spend all day memorizing things at their desks."
"We are here to practice!"
"How would we know what it's like when ancient runes unleash their
magic without practice?"
"As for Miss Penelope... I need her to be my assistant."
"And, as far as I know, she is your friend, isn't she?"
