After handing the paper bag to Professor Dumbledore, he left quickly. It seemed that he was really busy.

Thiel did not have classes in the evenings at Flamel's house. Mr. Flamel believed that moderate study was more useful than constant squeeze. So after Thiel moved all the birthday gifts back to the room upstairs, he simply opened them one by one.

According to Teal, there is actually no need to specially send birthday gifts. She will go back at the end of August, and it will be troublesome to transport them all back by then. But after she came to her senses, she undeniably loved the surprise she felt when she received the gift.

His parents', M'gina's, Charlie and Bill's, Tonks'... Tier opened them all and felt that everything was brought to his heart. They were all piled on a shelf by the wall, making it impossible for her to take her eyes away.

Teal picked out a candy from Professor Dumbledore's gift, put it in his mouth and savored the rich strawberry sweetness. Although she was a little regretful about missing this birthday, with these gifts, her regrets were filled with emotion.

It was also at this moment that she understood the reason why her parents asked Professor Dumbledore to send gifts - they wanted to tell Teal that even if they couldn't celebrate her birthday with her, they all cared about her.

The more stuff you bring with you to Apparate, the greater the magic and risk required.

Till carefully folded and put away the wrapping paper wrapped around the gifts, and decided that no matter how troublesome it was when she left, she would shamelessly take them back without dropping them.

With Professor Dumbledore's magic power, it shouldn't be too difficult, right? Till blinked, full of confidence in his old principal.

***

In an ancient castle located in the Scottish Highlands, Professor Dumbledore, who had rushed back from the Emery family, was sitting in his office, checking the list of freshmen listed by Professor McGonagall one by one based on the names in the Book of Admission. .

This is something he has to do every summer, and more than once. He and Professor McGonagall must ensure that every little wizard who is about to enter school receives the letter and reads it.

Of course, they are not the only ones who have to be busy. Every current employee of Hogwarts may be dispatched at any time to deliver admission notices to young Muggle-born wizards.

They must explain the facts to each other's Muggle parents, and as guides, take the little wizard to Diagon Alley for the first time.

Suddenly, Professor Dumbledore's checking movement paused. He frowned in confusion, and then sneezed slowly and hesitantly.

When the magic power reaches a certain level, it is rare to get sick. At least Professor Dumbledore has not been visited by minor illnesses such as colds and fevers for decades.

what is it today? Could it be that his plan to ask Severus to deliver a message to five young Muggle wizards was accidentally discovered by Severus?

Professor Dumbledore was puzzled.

Till's study progress was very smooth. No matter what learning content Mr. Flamel arranged, she was able to give him a perfect answer sheet.

Therefore, at the end of August, Mr. Flamel, who originally only planned to bring an end to Till's life, made an exception and decided to ask Till to come into contact with the Philosopher's Stone in person and brew the elixir of life in front of Till.

This can be said to treat Till as one of his own. The attraction of the magic stone and the elixir of life is huge. Till never thought that one day he would be able to see them with his own eyes or even touch them with his own hands.

But Thiel's first reaction was to refuse: "Sorry, Mr. Flamel, I'm afraid..."

"Don't refuse, kid, this is a great opportunity for you." Mr. Flamel interrupted Till immediately. He knew that Till would reject him next, and he just didn't give Till the chance. "Could it be Don’t you want to see the legendary Philosopher’s Stone? It is the highest concentration of alchemy, and there may be only one like it in the world.”

"Don't you want to see the process of brewing the elixir of life? It is as difficult to brew as any kind of soul potion. No one who loves potions can refuse it."

Mr. Flamel directly placed these two baits in front of Till. He accurately understood Till's thoughts and knew that Till would not refuse again.

As expected, Till was confused. After Mr. Flamel made it clear, she could not say the word of rejection a second time.

According to Mr. Lemay, her knowledge in alchemy is enough to refine a magic stone by herself. Although the magic power is not enough and the materials are not enough, if she wants to, it is just a matter of time.

but……

Till couldn't tell what she was thinking. She just felt that one piece of the magic stone was enough. If two or three pieces were piled together, they could only be used as decorations for her, and they might even cause trouble. .

For Tier, who comes from a well-off family and is only twelve years old, she has neither money nor longevity, and she doesn't care whether she has the Philosopher's Stone or not.

Therefore, if she does not plan to refine the magic stone in the future, this may really be her only chance to get close to the magic stone. There was also the elixir of life, and Thiel actually really wanted to know how it was brewed.

Thiel smiled at Mr. Flamel in a compromising manner, and exhaled helplessly: "After listening to your words, I guess no one in this world can refuse."

"I don't invite people casually." Mr. Flamel sat on the sofa with a smile. At over six hundred years old, he rarely stood for long periods of time and only stood up occasionally to move around.

Till's smile deepened, he sat next to Mr. Flamel and asked a few more questions about the Philosopher's Stone.

Anyway, they agreed to Mr. Flamel's invitation, and Thiel was not polite and asked all his questions about the Philosopher's Stone at once, so as not to leave later and have no chance to ask again.

In the early morning of August 8, the day before Thiel left Flamel's house, Thiel followed Mr. Flamel to the basement again.

She didn't expect that Mr. Flamel would hide such a precious magic stone in the basement, and the seat where she studied every day was only more than one meter away from the magic stone.

I really don’t know whether I should say that she was slow to react and didn’t notice the magic power fluctuations of the magic stone behind her for more than a month, or I should lament that Mr. Flamel was reassured about her and was not worried at all about her turning around and prying the magic stone away.

Mr. Flamel directly grabbed the magic stone in his hand. This artificial red stone looked very low-key. If it weren't for the strong magic power that was constantly being released from inside, Thiel would even think that it was no different from ordinary stones by the lake. .

"Should I wear gloves?" Thiel couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw that Mr. Flamel was about to hand him the Philosopher's Stone.

Mr. Flamel put it directly into her hand angrily: "It's just a stone. Even if the effect is a bit more powerful, it's just a stone, not as fragile as you think."

When he first got the Philosopher's Stone, Thiel couldn't help but panic, but that was only a momentary feeling. After a few seconds, she realized that the magic stone was indeed very hard. Even if she squeezed it hard, the magic stone had no reaction.

Till breathed a sigh of relief and began to carefully observe the appearance of the Philosopher's Stone. Finally, under Mr. Flamel's encouraging gaze, he separated a small ray of magic power from his body and carefully penetrated the inside of the Philosopher's Stone.
