From Beauxbatons to Hogwarts

Chapter 3 Return to Hogwarts

Calvin sat on the chair, a little reserved, but Dumbledore was very relaxed: "What would you like to drink?" He blinked, "Pumpkin juice? Tea? Or coffee?"

"Have a cup of tea, thank you."

With a tap of Dumbledore's wand, a cup of hot tea appeared in front of the young man.Calvin smelled the tea, and it smelled very familiar.

"Lily flower tea, you gave it to me. I personally don't drink it often because I can't add too much sugar. You know, the elderly just like to eat something sweet."

"Really, then next time I will give you a sweet bar, which is also a magical drink I discovered in the Far East." Calvin took a sip and put down the tea cup, "I remember I also gave this to Senior Snape. Tea, I heard that he is also a professor at Hogwarts now, does he like this kind of tea?"

"Oh, as far as I know, he seemed very angry after receiving your gift," Dumbledore smiled bitterly. "He smashed the gift on the spot. He was in a bad mood all day and got a deduction from Gryffindor. Twenty points.”

After drinking tea, Dumbledore turned the conversation to the main topic.

"Calvin, these days I went to visit an old friend, Nicolas Flamel. He admired your talent in alchemy very much."

Calvin smiled: "In fact, every alchemy teacher I had said this. In the third grade, the alchemy professor at the school could no longer guide me. He took me to see his teacher, European Alchemy. President of the association.

Soon, the president could not teach me any more knowledge, so Madame Maxime took me to see Mr. Nicoléme.For my alchemical knowledge, you can read the books I wrote. "

""Simple Alchemy for Homes"," Dumbledore took out the book from his desk. Calvin took a look and found that all five of his books were on his desk, and they all had signs of recent flipping. "If you ask me, this book is not simple. There are many alchemical formulas in it that I can't understand at first glance."

Calvin said modestly: "Principal, this is just a curse of knowledge. I believe that with your level, you will soon know the secrets. The difficulty is just the theory, but even people who have never been exposed to alchemy, as long as they are strict By following the steps in the book, you can also make simple alchemical works.”

"Indeed," Dumbledore winked and said playfully, "Then should I open a new alchemy class and use this book as the teaching material?"

Calvin was a little surprised. Could it be that his job search was about to succeed?

Dumbledore smiled: "Just kidding, it's not that easy to open a new course. At least both the school board and the Department of Magical Education must agree. It will take at least three years at the earliest."

Three years?Calvin calculated in his mind that he would miss too many opportunities.

"But what surprises me even more is that after graduation, you are also very good in the study of magical animals." Dumbledore waved his wand, and three books flew out of the bookshelf, namely "Magical Animals and Magic in Eastern Europe" Chapter, Far East Chapter and North America Chapter.

"I heard that these three books have become the textbooks for the magical beasts class in Ilvermorny. What made you choose magical beasts as your new research direction?"

Calvin sighed: "Rather than saying that I chose magical animals, it's better to say that magical animals chose me."

"As you know, Professor, after graduation, I chose to travel around the world. I originally wanted to understand the magic world in various places and learn the unique local magic. But the reality is worse than I thought. The stubborn forces in the magic world everywhere are very powerful. They cherish their unique magic broom, just like the British pure-blood families.

In this case, I can only deal with the local magical animals. At least the magical animals will not exclude me because I am an outsider.So except for some local friends who are willing to exchange magic with me, the ones I have the most contact with are magical animals.I'd rather be friends with magical beasts than stubborn wizards."

Dumbledore nodded: "Yes, many times, wizards are far more dangerous than magical animals. To be honest, Calvin, I'm afraid that the torture you suffered at Hogwarts will make your heart full of hatred." , but I heard you say that you are more willing to be friends with magical animals than stubborn wizards. I think I am worrying too much."

"The backward diehards are like a decaying palace, they will be eliminated sooner or later." Calvin said softly.

Dumbledore was somewhat pleased, "It seems that you are really an excellent wizard." Then he raised a question that Calvin must face directly, "Then why do you want to return to England now?"

There was a brief silence in the office.

Dumbledore continued: "I went to Cambridge to visit your uncle, and he said that you would go back to see him every Christmas after 81."

"You have many opportunities to return to the UK. Voldemort will fall three years after you transfer, and you can come back at that time. Or if you don't want to interrupt your studies again, you can come back after you graduate from Beauxbatons."

Calvin still chose to remain silent.

"I don't understand why you chose this time to return to Hogwarts after spending seven years traveling around the world. Although you are still young, you are excellent in many aspects, whether it is alchemy or the study of magical animals, even if you If you want to go into politics, you will also become the youngest French Minister of Magic in history.”

Dumbledore crossed his hands in front of him, showing a scrutinizing gaze.His message couldn't be clearer, with both Nicole Flamel and Newt Scamander heaping praise on the youngster in their respective fields of expertise.Dumbledore's other friends also have high expectations for Calvin Capet, especially the French wizarding community and the Far Eastern wizarding community.

Although there is not enough evidence, Dumbledore believes that the vigorous changes in the magical world in the Far East in the past few years are closely related to Calvin.

Calvin was sweating a little, and finally decided to follow his instincts and tell the truth - before coming, Calvin took a small sip of Felixir.

"Well, it was Mr. Nicoléme who suggested that I return to Hogwarts, Professor." Calvin said sincerely.

"One of my magical researches has hit a bottleneck and there has been no progress for a long time. At Easter this year, I asked Mr. Nicoléme to help me predict. He told me that when I return to Hogwarts, my research will be able to improvement."

Dumbledore interrupted Calvin: "Is that the magic research you are talking about?"

Calvin wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Yes, Professor."

"I should have warned you in my letter not to indulge in that research too much. It can easily lead you to touch taboos and become a dark wizard." Dumbledore accused him seriously.
