Harry Potter: Blood of the Dragon

Chapter 210 - 210. Magic Converter

"Really, I bet it was just some illusion charm or rune." Magnus scoffed. He'd never accept this old man's attitude.

But Nicolas denied, "Illusions can be easily broken. I call what I did a simulation. I used wind and light related charms to make you two feel as if you are falling. Then I used the wind to make you slow, but because of lights and disorientation runes you felt you were falling too fast." ??

"Dear, let's eat now. They will be staying for a few days. We'll have enough time to talk." Perenelle Flamel said charmingly. She had the kind old grandma energy going on.

"YES! I'm hungry..." Ragnar agreed with the plan.

"Wait, let me also include them on this dinner." Magnus interrupted and took out a photo frame from his bag.

"Old Man Flamel, meet Arthur and Merlin. You two, this old man is 600 years old." Magnus introduced everyone.

Merlin and Arthur just stared at Nicolas' face. Then Merlin asked. "How?"

"Philosopher's Stone." Nicolas gave a one-word reply.

Both Arthur and Merlin nodded. Merlin replied, "I remember those stones. There was a frenzy to make them in the past, as they could make you both rich and immortal."

"Wait, you know how to make them," Magnus asked excitedly.

"I remember I knew how to make it, but don't know that now. Maybe the other one knows." Merlin replied.

Magnus sat back stumped, ~He's too grumpy and won't teach me.~

"Let's eat now, everyone." Perenelle Flamel nudged them and finally, their spoons and plates started making noise.

But as they ate, they heard Merlin and Arthur talking.

"Arthur, remember that time when I showed you the philosopher's stones and you ate one of them thinking it's sweet crystals. Haha, I still don't understand how the stone then travelled through your system and passed out of your cock.

"That stone was literally 1 inch wide. How did your pipe even squeeze it out?" Merlin wondered.

"Pain, my friend. A lot of pain." Arthur's face turned pale remembering the dark days.

"Didn't you have some spell to help me?" Arthur inquired.

Merlin nodded, "Of course I did. But I just wanted to see such a big stone being passed out naturally. It really helped me in research later on."

Arthur seethed in rage, "BASTARD, I WAS READY TO CUT MY OWN MANHOOD THAT DAY."

"But I helped you," Merlin pointed out.

Arthur roared, "Yes, by offering me a bloody PAINLESS CASTRATION WITH MAGIC!"

*Cough*

Nicolas was trying to control his laughter all this time but he finally snorted. He wanted to maintain his serious old man aura but he just failed because of these two dead men.

"So why did you not use your stones?" Nicolas asked him.

Merlin scoffed, "Huh, and turn into you? No thanks, I loved my tight skin. But I would have surely found a way to not turn old and also be immortal."

Ragnar's face lit up, "Ah, we have already found it actually. My invention, the rejuvenation potion. As long as one drinks it enough times, he won't age a day physically. So, I am sure its effects can be added to and multiplied with the Elixir of life."

Merlin proudly nodded, "Good lad, Ragnar. If you were born in my era, I would have made you my son and transferred all my knowledge to you."

"What's stopping you now?" Ragnar asked, he was not convinced by Merlin's praise.

"Because I am but an empty husk. I don't have detailed memories anymore. I only know about things existing, how, when and where is unknown to me. Surprisingly, we remember our whole lives and even its tiny little details but it's all worthless stuff." Merlin answered with self-doubt.

*BURP*

"The food was very tasty, Mrs Flamel. Thank you for the meal. Now, let's go and start studying, Mr Flamel." Magnus got up from his chair enthusiastically.

Perenelle Flamel chuckled, "Thank you, dear. You can call me Grandma actually."

She was right and Magnus also felt it. So he obliged, "Hehe, thank you, Grandma."

But Nicolas didn't get up, "Not so fast, first I need to see what you do know. A test of some sort."

Magnus was very confident in his abilities so he took him head-on, "I am okay with it, as long as no potions are involved. I am utterly bad at them. And I got Ragnar to make potions for me."

"Remind me to charge you for potions from now," Ragnar commented while still eating.

"I pay for the materials, you just need to make them." Magnus barked back.

"What about my precision and hard work? My market fees are in the hundreds, and you don't even pay me." Ragnar complained.

Magnus rolled his eyes, "Fine, I will get you the ingredients you want for free next time."

...

Nicolas brought them underground to a large area. It was a hall with walls made of steel as it seemed.

"Show me your strongest spell." Nicolas requested, more like ordered.

Magnus shrugged, "I can't. I don't even know my strongest ability because I am yet to start using Merlin's staff. But still, I am the best at fire magic."

"Umm, it's currently fiendfyre. I have trained it enough to be able to control it. But, can this place handle it?" Magnus inquired in concern as he didn't want to destroy the humble abode of this old couple.

But Nicolas had no concerns over it. "Just do it, this place is not ordinary."

"Okay then. Ragnar, you come and stand beside Mr Flamel."

Saying that he took out his wand from his pocket and chanted the spell. A small fire appeared on the tip of the wand, next he knew, it shot out like a snake coming out of its cage. In normal cases, his wand should have just exploded like a grenade, but here it didn't happen because now Magnus had learned to control the magic that went to the wand, this way he was able to make sure magic did not strain the wand too much whole spewing out the max amount of it.

The fire circled around the giant hall, taking its shape. Soon, it was clear that this was not a snake, it was a dragon-like thing with snake features. Eastern Dragon probably.

The fire was deep red in colour and looked very hot. Magical fires didn't follow the rule of normal fire, where the light colour meant hotter. Here, the darker colour of the fire meant it had more magic imbued in it.

But Magnus was not done. The fire dragon kept on getting bigger and bigger, at one point it covered everything from the ceiling to the floor, hovering in circles with him, Nicolas and Ragnar in the middle. They were already sweating. Magnus too was sweating but he was used to heat.

"Mr Flamel, if I continue my wand will break. The fire can get 10 times bigger if I continue." He warned.

Flamel had no reason to doubt his sincerity. He nodded and took out his own mysterious wand. Magnus wondered what wand this old man had because Dumbledore in the school had the so-called Elder Wand, the strongest of them all. While here this ancient man must also have something precious too.

Nicolas waved his arms in the air and the metal walls suddenly opened from places as if they were vents. Then in a few seconds, the whole Fiendfyre spell vanished with no damage.

"Where did it go?" Magnus asked. Because Fiendfyre was a fire that had a mind of its own. If the caster didn't extinguish it then the fire would continue to rage and move to create more destruction.

"Absorbed, into my magical converter, that will now use your gracious spell to power my home," Nicolas revealed.

Magnus and Ragnar's jaws fell. This was crazy.

"You mean, you have found a way to generate electricity with magic, and the electrical appliances don't fry because of magic?" Magnus asked with great interest.

"No they don't, didn't you see my television showing the pathetic news about the muggle world?" Nicolas replied as if this was a very common thing.

"Can you show me the generator? I have been trying to find a way to let electrical appliances work with magic ever since I learned magic." He requested.

"Sure, come with me," Nicolas agreed.

Magnus suspected that Nicolas was just faking this attitude and was excited to show Magnus around the house as if a child showing his prized toys. After all, Magnus was probably the only person in years who was getting such a tour from him. Due to safety reasons, he couldn't tell anyone about his various discoveries before.

After a long descent in an elevator, which went sideways too. They found themselves in a pitch-black place. Nicolas first used his wand to cast a Lumos spell, illuminating the whole lobby.

And there it was for them to see.
