HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world

Mr. and Mrs. Flamel uttered a cry of surprise at the same time.

"Muggle things can actually move in this tiny frame!"

Nico continued to touch other buttons. There were two red buttons on the right, one with B and the other with A; on the left were an up, down, left, and right direction key; and at the bottom were two buttons, SELECT and START.

He tried pressing SELECT and found that the screen changed again and a list appeared on it.

"SUPERMARIOLAND?"

With great curiosity, he pressed the button.

He wanted to see what this continent was!

A big-nosed little man named Mario, wearing a hat, overalls, and a mustache, appeared on the screen. He was in ink color and was jumping around on the screen.

"There are four countries on the continent of Serasa, but the alien Titanka wants to conquer the continent. It uses hypnotic rays to control the residents and the king, and kidnaps Princess Daisy, who rules the four countries. Mario embarks on an adventure to save the princess and the country and defeat the alien Titanka."

Nico read the plot of the game and realized that he was about to play the role of the villain named Mario.

"interesting!"

He soon figured out the pattern: the direction keys controlled the movement of the little man, and the red button controlled the little man to jump up and squat.

Nico excitedly controlled the little man to walk to the right - he jumped over a water pipe-shaped object, which was good - he ate a gold coin, which was also good - he hit the wall, but fortunately it was okay - a mushroom, try eating it!

The little man's body began to flicker - Oh no! I lost my life! I'm back to the starting point!

This successfully aroused his competitive spirit. Only Merlin knew how long it had been since he had such an emotion!

This time everything went well until he came across a turtle and went up to say hello to it.

——Back to the starting point!

Perenelle was leaning on a crutch, watching her husband's foolish actions and wishing she could give him a cane.

Finally, after the villain was killed by the monster for the Nth time, she exploded.

"I'll try!"

She snatched the machine from her husband.

Her hands, which usually trembled due to old age, were now very steady, and she passed the 1-1 level easily and reached the second level.

During this process, she discovered many challenging operations, such as stepping on the turtle's back to kick the turtle shell away, jumping on the mushroom's head to crush the monster... But she suffered a Waterloo at 1-3, and the little man returned to the starting point of this level.

Nico was so anxious that he kept stomping his crutch.

......

The next morning.

When Jane and Dumbledore went downstairs, they saw the two old men sleeping soundly on the dining table, their crutches thrown on the ground, and Nico's Nintendo Game Boy on his belly.

Hearing the noise, the couple looked up.

Jian Yu was shocked by them. The two men who were full of energy yesterday now had bloodshot eyes, big dark circles under their eyes, and their skin stuck to their bones, making them look like two skeletons!

Dumbledore was obviously also shocked by their appearance:

"Merlin—"

He felt a little uneasy. Could it be that the loss of the Philosopher's Stone had affected the couple to such an extent?

Nico stood up tremblingly, his body swaying a few times. He held the table with one hand and spoke weakly:

"Good morning, kids..."

When he saw the game console, his mind instantly cleared up, and he looked at Jian Yu with an expectant and excited look:

"Good boy, your gift is the best thing I have received in the past hundred years."

"But it seemed to be consumed rather quickly. It was gone in just one night."

Dumbledore was transfixed.

He never expected that these two six hundred-year-old men—

I actually played on the Muggle game console for the entire night!

Now Jian Yu understood why the two were in such a bad condition.

Isn't this just like when she played games all night long in her previous life?

She checked the machine and found that it was out of power.

After learning that the game console was not a consumable item and that only a thing called "battery" needed to be replaced regularly, the LeMay couple became happy at a speed visible to the naked eye.

They asked Jian Yu to help buy another game console and bring some batteries.

The two silver-haired old men stroked her head with a smile and gave her two large bags of 100-dollar pounds:

"Good boy, keep the extra money for yourself to buy candy, don't think of saving money for us."

"We never touched money, we had no interest in money."

——Is this the world of the rich?

The villain in Jian Yu's heart bit his handkerchief and burst into tears of envy.

After she brought the things back, the Flamels became addicted to their game consoles again and completely forgot about their existence.

Dumbledore looked at the couple's red faces and thick necks arguing over the stuck level, and his heart was filled with confusion:

Are these still the two calm and wise elders he knows?

Maybe I am not fully awake yet, and I need to go back to sleep.

After a few hours, the game console ran out of battery again.

The Flamels finally woke up from their dream.

They apologized to Dumbledore and Jian Yu who were left out:

"Sorry, kids, but this is a great invention!"

"Happiness and a sense of accomplishment, we haven't felt anything like this in hundreds of years!"

"I feel like I'm back in my youth, when I first succeeded in alchemy!"

Then Perenelle began to cast some food spells, and fried eggs and bread fell onto the plate.

She made a large portion because she and her husband planned to eat with them. She explained to them:

"We are too old and too skinny to hold the game console. We need to eat more and gain more strength."

"After all, the people of the Serasa continent and Princess Daisy are still waiting for us to save them."

During the meal, Nico kept asking Jian Yu about the techniques to use to shoot the super ball, the operations of high and long jumps, and how to let Mario get more health points... She gave the alchemist detailed answers one by one and demonstrated them herself.

Mr. and Mrs. Flamel praised this very much. They gave Dumbledore a thumbs-up and said:

"This child has a strong spirit of research, just like us when we were researching how to turn mercury into gold!"

"Albus, you have to train her well. She will achieve great things."

Dumbledore pulled out several strands of his beard with force.

He smiled bitterly, but he always felt that something was wrong, and an ominous premonition was dripping in his mind.

His premonition soon came true.

Nicolas Flamel said to Jian Yu earnestly:

"Kid, forget what I said yesterday!"

“As long as there is enough fun and purpose in life, what’s the harm in living a little longer?”

"I've lived for over 600 years, so I can live a few more years to play these games."

Dumbledore's eyes went dark.

Now, his original plan to give Jian Yu a shocking education on the concept of life and death had all gone down the drain!

He held his forehead with one hand and spoke in a trembling voice:

"Oh - Nico - I'm glad to see you're cheering up - I hope you still have enough elixir."

Nico smiled, his white beard and long silver hair trembling:

"Albus, don't worry. I have enough medicine stored. Living another hundred years won't be a problem."

"We're going to spend the rest of our time playing on every console in the world."

Dumbledore looked at them in disbelief and suddenly felt a pain in his stomach.

He originally thought that without the Philosopher's Stone, the Flamels might only have a few years left to deal with their affairs after their death.

But I didn't expect it to last for over a hundred years!

This means that the Flamels can not only send themselves away, but maybe even Jian Yu away!

Asking them to educate her on the concept of life and death is a complete paradox.

What’s the difference between this and the richest man saying that he has no interest in money?

Hearing this just makes people feel like they are being Versailles!

As expected of a Frenchman!

He regretted deeply and felt that bringing Jian Yu here was a huge mistake.
