Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1142: Ring of Ouroboros
After leaving the Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Albert did not return by boat directly to England, but took Isobel back to the house left to them by the Lemays and began to carefully search every corner of the house .
Isobel looked at Albert who was rummaging through the boxes and asked, "What are you looking for?"
"Look for what Mr. Nicole left us."
Albert looked through Nico's study, but didn't find what he was looking for. Although there are still many valuable books in the study, the most valuable notes and handwritten notes are already there.
"What do you mean... Mr. Nicole doesn't want Dumbledore to know?" Isobel was very surprised by this, then shook his head and said: "If Mr. Nicole really wants to leave something to you, it is estimated that I gave you something before, and it is impossible to keep it for you until now.”
"Who knows? Maybe they don't want to let Dumbledore know, even the best friends don't tell each other all their secrets." Albert ran to the bedroom again to look around, still Didn't find what I was looking for.
Isobel leaned against the door frame of the bedroom, looked at the busy Albert and asked, "Are you so sure that Mr. Nico will leave something for you?"
"Well, if I lived hundreds of years..." Albert waved his wand, restoring the messy room to its original shape, "and would do that..."
"Don't make me guess the riddles."
"Anyway, Mr. Nicole left the knowledge to me, because he knew that I was not short of money and knew that I wanted knowledge." Albert thought for a while and said, "If you insist on saying it, take it as your intuition. ."
"Really."
Isobel walked over and rubbed Albert's cheek in protest.
"Are you still looking for it?"
"Go on, of course, I feel like I'm missing something."
"Is it because Nicole only left this house to us, that makes you suspect what might be hidden here?" Isobel said his guess.
"Yes, this is indeed one of the reasons." Albert returned to the study, his eyes fell on the crystal ball on the table, "However, this place has been protected by the Brave Loyalty Charm, even if it is donated, the value is actually worth it. No, I can't keep bothering Dumbledore all the time."
Any wizard who wants to enter here needs Dumbledore to "leak", which is obviously a hassle.
"Of course, leaving this place for us is actually meant to serve as a safe house for us."
"It's puzzling, how are you going to find that thing, by divination?"
Isobel saw that Albert had been staring at the crystal ball and suddenly wanted to understand something.
"Yeah!" Albert said depressedly, "When I first thought of the crystal ball for divination, I thought what I was doing was a bit stupid."
"Okay, don't be depressed." Isobel touched Albert's head and comforted, "You just didn't react for a while."
"No, actually I've guessed where the stuff is."
Speaking, Albert took out the photo frame he had just taken away, looked at the Lemay couple smiling at him in the photo frame, opened the photo frame from behind, and found what the Lemay couple left him.
A hand-painted parchment map and a gold ouroboros ring.
Isobel opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't expect to be guessed by Albert.
There is a paragraph behind the sheepskin map:
Dear Albert, you'll probably need it when you want to make the Philosopher's Stone.
I saw in the Prophecy Orb that you took the frame, so we decided to put it in the frame.
The location on the map is an alchemy workshop, we leave it to you, where are all the materials and manufacturing tools for the Philosopher's Stone, and there are many ideas that we have not been able to realize, maybe you will Interested, it would be a pleasure if you could someday perfect them one by one.
Don't tell Dumbledore that he doesn't like the Philosopher's Stone.
——Nicole Lemay
"Is this what you're looking for?"
Isobel takes the rough gold ring, the Ouroboros symbol for alchemy.
"Actually, I don't know what I'll find." Albert read the letter again.
"Don't they already have a Philosopher's Stone? Why would they want to make more?" Isobel couldn't understand what Nico was doing.
"They probably need the Philosopher's Stone to make gold." Albert frowned slightly while looking at the information on the parchment, "The Philosopher's Stone will be gradually consumed in the process of making this magical gold, That's why they tried to make more magic stones in order to obtain this more precious gold, the gold ring in your hand is probably worth amazing, by the way, that ring should be the key to open the alchemy workshop."
"Actually, I'm more curious about how you know." Isobel handed Albert the Ouroboros ring.
"Guess, sometimes you don't need evidence." Albert put the ring and map back in the frame, and left with Isobel.
"I thought you would rush to find the alchemy workshop in the letter~IndoMTL.com~ Isobel was a little surprised at Albert's calmness, as if he wasn't the one who rummaged through the cabinet just now.
"Let's talk when I have time, that thing is useless to us now, and even if we want to recreate the Philosopher's Stone, I'm afraid it won't be that easy." Albert knew exactly what the focus was now.
"Why do you say Dumbledore doesn't like the Philosopher's Stone?" Isobel asked after returning to the ship.
"Because immortality and money are not what Dumbledore desires." Albert said lightly, "I think in Dumbledore's eyes, the Philosopher's Stone is probably the source of disaster."
"People go crazy for the Philosopher's Stone?" Isobel thought of why.
"Yes, many people spend their entire lives in pursuit of longevity and money," Albert said softly. "If they were made aware of the existence of the Philosopher's Stone, they would probably fight like crazy. In fact, there have been similar cases in history. In this case, it's just that it's not the Philosopher's Stone, but a powerful wand that claims to be invincible."
"What about you?" Isobel asked rhetorically.
"I never long for immortality, that's a terrible curse." Albert said calmly to Isobel, "The most important thing to me about the Philosopher's Stone is that it allows us to die when we want to die. , like Nicole and Perenal to meet death calmly."
"Actually, it's not bad to grow old and die together like Nico and Perenal did."
Isobel sat next to Albert, resting her head lightly on his shoulder, and looked at the sea level in the distance.
"Let's go back!"
"Well, go home!"
The sailboat, under Albert's control, left the waters of France and headed for England.
