In the end, Dumbledore's idea was not realized.
Because Xifa suddenly spoke!
"Mr. Nico, I remember that Hogwarts has an ancient guardian magic that protects students. I wonder if I can make use of this?"
...
"Great! I was just struggling with what kind of magic source should be used to drive the resurrection circle. At present, except for my magic stone, there is no magic source that can support the resurrection circle across the secret realm."
"As for the magic stone, I have other uses. For example, Xifa, you are using it to forge a wand!"
My wand... wand... wand!
"Wait, Nico!" In his excitement, Xifa didn't even add the honorific.
But Nico Flamel doesn't care about this. On the contrary, he likes this kind of approachable title... The premise is that you have the ability to be valued.
"What's the matter? Xifa? Speak slowly, I have plenty of time to listen to you explain what you need and want."
So Xifa described and demonstrated his idea in detail, using both hands and feet.
He doesn't want a wand that can only cast spells, he wants a tachi or dagger that can cut, chop, and wield spells...
As Xifa described... Nico Flamel also slowly opened his eyes.
After hearing Xifa's description, he clapped his hands excitedly.
"That's right, ordinary wand materials don't have this strength at all."
Following Nico Flamel's gaze, Xifa saw the forge gradually becoming stable under the joint spells of Elise and Luna.
"If it is changed to the shape of a tachi, the burned magic pattern will need to be changed...the material ratio will also need to be changed...the inner core..."
As he spoke, Nico Flamel paced back and forth in the room.
After turning around for an unknown number of times, he suddenly stopped.
"I have an idea! After I do some simulation and calculation, I can forge it!"
Looking at Xifa with uncontrollable excitement on his face, Nico Flamel decided to take the opportunity to tell Xifa the bad news.
"Ahem! Xifa, I'm really sorry to interrupt your happy moment, but I still want to say a few things."
Looking at Xifa who looked at him solemnly, Nico Flamel couldn't help but smile on his tense face. He still cared about the feelings of the juniors he valued.
"The first thing...is that your spellcasting can't really be restored to its original state..."
Afterwards, Nico Flamel gave a detailed explanation to Xifa.
In the end, Xifa nodded to express his understanding.
In short, because the seal is forcibly broken to release the magic power, the magic power cannot be commanded. In other words, Xifa will not be able to perform profound and complicated magic.
This is expected, and Xifa is not surprised. As long as he finds a way to unlock the seal, this part of his ability will be regained by him.
"As long as you can accept it, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept the reality that you can't cast magic at your advanced age."
"Wait a minute, advanced magic? Not advanced magic?"
"That's right, senior magic, within my prediction range, Xifa, you can only use flocks of birds, fluorescent flashes, flying around and other magics... The blazing flames are probably very reluctant..."
Hearing this, Xifa didn't hold back after all. He looked at Nico Flamel in stunned silence.
Boy, I thought I couldn't cast ice storm and other magic similar to forbidden spells.
Now you tell me, you can't cast transformation spells, armor spells, anything like that!
But...it's not a big problem.
As expected, during this period of weakness, I was holding a sword and using my strong physical fitness to become a magic warrior who could only chop!
"Is it okay? If it's okay, let's talk about the second thing."
Seeing Xifa quickly adjust his mentality and cheer up, Nico Flamel nodded calmly, and then said the second thing boldly.
"In my estimation, forging this sword requires a huge price! Mainly because it has the same effect as Gryffindor's sword, and the materials are extremely rare."
"I'll give you a temporary list, you can take a look..."
...
When Nico Flamel's book materials were extremely rare, Xifa had already stayed where he was.
He stiffly took the parchment filled with densely written small words from Nico Flamel's hand.
Xifa can't read a word of it...
These materials made him, who couldn't afford a top-notch broomstick with all his savings, ineligible to participate in the relevant auctions.
However, fortunately, there are more than one person who is willing to sacrifice everything for him...
Ding——dang——
Next door, Nico Flamel rolled up his sleeves, swung a big hammer, and made a scabbard for Gryffindor's sword in front of the hot forge.
Originally, the fire was raised to forge a wand, but due to a sudden change, the fire was simply used to forge a scabbard.
The flames catalyzed by the magic stone were like mud in his hands, easily changing into any shape.
Raise different materials to their optimum forging temperature.
Then beat it into a ball...
Opposite him, Professor Dumbledore stretched out his wand and continued to inject the magic patterns that had been outlined and stored in mid-air into it.
The parchment was passed around in the hands of Elise, Luna, and Cassandra.
Fortunately, the three families had just enough to collect from their inventory.
See that the materials on the parchment are all marked.
Kassandra removed the material she found from the ring on the spot.
Elise and Luna looked at each other, and they no longer hesitated.
Make a prompt decision and go to Gringotts or the family vault to prepare the materials as quickly as possible.
So, the four of them returned to the principal's office in Hogwarts again. The reason why they were not the vice-principal was because only the floo network in the principal's office was still connected to the outside world.
Watched the two leave Hogwarts through the Floo Network.
Cassandra and Sifa returned to Nico Flamel's alchemy workshop.
"Xifa, you came just in time! Go on!"
The sword of Gryffindor with its scabbard was thrown towards Nico Flamel.
Xifa grabbed it in his hand and pulled it a few times. It felt surprisingly good.
He nodded with satisfaction, and at Dumbledore's signal, he carried it behind his back.
"Okay, there is something you need to do next. Cassandra, please help Xifa."
After saying that, Nico Flamel handed over another piece of parchment, which made Xifa's eyelids jump.
Gritting his teeth and opening it, Xifa breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that it is not supplementary material, so there is no problem.
Relaxing his mind, he took a closer look.
Huh? Want me to preside over the sorting ceremony?
Let Beauxbatons, Durmstrang and other young wizards from other schools go through the freshman admissions and sorting hat process.
The purpose is to give them a false student identity and gain recognition from the guardian magic of Hogwarts.
But why me?
Regarding this question, Nico Flamel spread his hands helplessly and glanced at Dumbledore.
"Xifa, in our Hogwarts alone, the contradictions in the four houses are extremely obvious. Now so many young wizards from various magic schools are gathered together. The contradictions are even more intense."
"I've vented their competitiveness through Quidditch, and now I need you to suppress them."
No...Professor, you know I can't do magic right now...
But who knows, Dumbledore winked mischievously despite Xifa's forced smile.
"Xifa, they are just students! Excellent students have graduated early and gone to the front line..."
It seems to bring back some bad memories
As he spoke, Dumbledore also fell silent...
————————
In addition to Dumbledore's desire to let Western France establish its prestige, the reason for letting Western France organize a branch was that there were really not enough professors.
The newly admitted little wizards are indeed obedient, but some of these "old fritters" who have been wandering around the magical world for many years try to break the rules and have delusions of being like dragons crossing the river.
They just want to use their superior attitude to defy the rules and regulations of Hogwarts, break the rules, and become the leaders of Hogwarts as outsiders.
Compared to Elise and other young wizards at Hogwarts, they have a "gentle" attitude towards foreign students.
Xifa is very direct and dares to go against his orders.
He drew his sword directly and put the blade against the stabbing head's neck.
The undisguised murderous intent and the cold blade easily suppressed these thorns.
Moreover, I learned that the biggest main conflict is the issue of accommodation.
Xifa immediately kicked out all the outsiders who had "occupied" the dormitory in the outer courtyard.
While denouncing the castle as a bad thing, building a holiday villa in the Forbidden Forest, while living in the castle and enjoying the services in the castle, how could such a good thing come from it?
Concession after concession, outsiders want more privileges.
The locals are also dissatisfied with outsiders owning two or more sets of accommodation.
A refugee should behave like a refugee.
No one in the meeting objected to moving out of the castle. Xifa nodded with satisfaction and motioned to Cassandra to release the petrification spell on them.
With the help of the school rules revised by Nico Flamel and Dumbledore.
This group of people was assigned to the International Students College.
Hit a stick and give me a sweet date.
After forcing everyone to move out of the castle and put on the Sorting Hat, Xifa announced that they were qualified to receive the Hogwarts inheritance.
Then, regardless of this group of young people who immediately became excited.
Sifa took Cassandra back to Nico Flamel's alchemy workshop.
Forging such a sword is not as simple as making a scabbard.
Nico Flamel expects it to be at least a little over a month.
For this reason, Xifa had to make a promise in exchange for the right to use his magic stone for more than a month...
