"Others can't do it, but you can." Fleur said, "If you want, you can become a formal professor at Beauxbatons tomorrow."
"That's very tempting." Kyle said with a smile, "If Hogwarts is occupied by You-Know-Who someday, I will consider this proposal."
"What a decisive rejection." Furong said. She naturally understood what Kyle meant, but she didn't care.
Anyway, she has already graduated, and it is Ms. Maxim who wants to poach Kyle.
"Follow me, don't take the wrong path, otherwise I will have to find you again." Furong, who was standing on the top of the mountain, took a step forward, and the whole person suddenly fell rapidly, then sank into a cloud and disappeared.
"Kanna, don't move. Let Kyle jump first. I'll come to pick you up later." Furong's voice became smaller and smaller in the air.
In fact, there was no need for her to remind her. Seeing this scene, Kanna's face turned pale and she subconsciously took two steps back.
Although she also knew that this was some kind of magic that entered Beauxbatons, just like the pillar at Platform 9.
But even though we know this, it is still hard to accept the thought of jumping from such a high place.
With such an exciting entrance, is Beauxbatons really a serious school?
Besides, she didn’t go in this way the last time she came.
Just as Connor was hesitating, she felt someone grab her hand.
"It's okay, Furong did it on purpose." Kyle comforted her softly.
"on purpose?"
"Well, it's just a large magical illusion, a device to protect Beauxbatons. Even where we are standing is not a mountain."
Kyle pulled Connor a few steps to the left, then walked around a pine tree and stopped in front of a huge rock.
"This is it," Kyle said. "Go ahead."
Kanna took a step forward subconsciously.
Then she saw that everything around her had changed. The originally bare top of the mountain turned into two huge stone pillars carved with statues. She was now standing between the two stone pillars, which was the middle of the gate of Beauxbatons.
"Kyle, have you been to Beauxbatons before?" Fleur's voice came from not far away.
"No." Kyle also appeared beside Kanna.
"Then how do you know the right way?"
"Although I have never been here, I have read many books about alchemy, and I have also been to Nico's manor."
Kyle walked forward and patted the eye of the thunderbird statue on the pillar, which was a dazzling sapphire.
"It's a classic protective alchemical item. There's one at the entrance of Nico's Manor. Combined with the magic runes on the body, it can hide everything within range." Kyle said lightly.
In fact, there is a similar setting at the entrance of Nico Manor.
The eyes of the two fire dragon statues are also made of this kind of alchemical gems, and the scales on their bodies are also specially designed magic runes.
Anyone who enters without Nico's permission will be lost in the fog.
From the perspective of an onlooker, they were just spinning in place and then were crushed by two alchemical fire dragons.
The ones here are not that high-end.
Kyle touched the patterns on the wings of the thunderbird... They were just basic protective runes. Judging from the magic power flowing on them, they were not enough to make the thunderbird statue move.
"Tsk..." Furong curled her lips in dissatisfaction, "How come you, a Hogwarts student, know so much about alchemy."
"It's always good to have many skills." Kyle said with a smile, "Isn't this where it comes in handy?"
"Don't show off."
Furong was very upset that her carefully thought-out revenge plan was easily seen through by Kyle, so she turned around and walked forward.
"You really have to follow me closely this time," she said. "Beauxbatons is not like Hogwarts, where there is only one administrator who can't do magic. If they find out, they will expel you."
"So if I follow you I won't be expelled?" Kyle asked.
"Of course," Fleur said, "if you are caught following me, you will certainly not be expelled, but you will be taken to the Ministry of Magic for trespassing at Beauxbatons."
Kyle's expression froze. "This is worse than being expelled."
"I know," Fleur said nonchalantly, "so I'm going to take you to a lesser-known route that leads directly to Ms. Maxime's office."
She walked up to the fountain and jumped in without hesitation.
After learning the lesson just now, Kanna subconsciously looked at Kyle.
"This time it's real, not a magical illusion." Kyle shrugged.
"Did you figure it out?" Kanna asked.
"No," Kyle said, "This fountain itself is a large alchemical item. Even if there are some gadgets inside, I can't find it."
"Then how can you be so sure?"
"Because Furong didn't let me jump first this time." Kyle said casually: "Since she didn't remind you, it means there is no risk involved, so there is no problem at all."
After saying that, Kyle jumped in. Several colorful fish swimming under the fountain were frightened and quickly scattered.
The water drops falling from the sky landed on his body, feeling icy cold, but Kyle did not fall into the water.
The fountain was empty, and he seemed to have passed directly through the water and landed in a passage.
The passage was surrounded by clean marble, several of which emitted bright light, illuminating the passage very brightly.
Looking up, he saw the sparkling water surface, as if the water in the pool was turning over. Kyle stretched out his hand and easily touched the water.
But they were there, peacefully, and even the water droplets that Kyle had accidentally brought down would float up after a moment and merge back into the water.
"This is the magic secret passage." Kyle couldn't help but sigh.
For a moment, he felt that Hogwarts was so inferior. Not only was its appearance inferior to Beauxbatons, but even its secret passages were not as magical as those of Beauxbatons.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 815 Alchemy
The three of them walked along the passage under the fountain for nearly twenty minutes, and Kyle felt as if he had passed through the entire Beauxbatons.
But the strange thing was that the water above their heads always existed, as if they were circling around the fountain.
Until a beam of light appeared in front of Kyle, which was completely different from the light in the passage... It was a golden door, shining brightly under the light.
Furong, who was walking in front, grabbed the door handle and pushed it gently.
"I was just wondering who would break into the secret passage of the fountain, but I didn't expect it to be you."
Ms. Maxim's voice came from the other side of the door, "Why, what do you want to see me at school?"
"Long time no see, Ms. Maxime." Furong said, "But it's not me who wants to come here this time, it's him..."
Fleur moved aside to allow Kyle and Connor to walk out of the passage.
"It's you?"
Seeing Kyle, Ms. Maxime seemed a little surprised, as if she didn't expect to meet him here.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Maxime," Kyle said politely, looking up at the Beauxbatons headmaster who was twice as tall as him.
He has grown a lot taller in the past few years, but when he looks at Ms. Maxime, he seems to have not changed much and still has to look up.
"Welcome." Ms. Maxim came over. "Welcome to you too, beautiful lady. I remember your name is Connor Prince."
"Yes, Ms. Maxime." Kanna bowed gracefully, "I didn't expect you to still remember me."
"I don't remember, I was impressed." Madam Maxime said, "Are you interested in working at Beauxbatons? We have always been in need of excellent potion professors."
Kanna was a little flattered and subconsciously looked at Kyle.
"It's okay, you don't have to answer me now. Just know that the door here is always open to you." Ms. Maxim said with a smile without embarrassing Kanna too much.
Then she looked at Kyle again and said in a delighted tone, "Have you finally figured it out and decided to come to Beauxbatons? I think this is the best place for you. You have no future in Hogwarts."
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, but I haven't thought about it that much for now." Kyle smiled, "I'm just here to visit during my vacation."
"Vacation?" Madam Maxime asked in confusion, "Your troubles were resolved so quickly... I didn't hear Albus mention that?"
"No." Kyle shook his head, "It's just been put on hold for some reasons. The Death Eaters have been quiet lately, and I have some free time before I figure out their conspiracy.
"But there are professionals doing this kind of thing, and I can't help."
"I see." Madam Maxime nodded. "War does bring about various situations. It's good to relax a little. It's easier to make mistakes if you're always tense."
"I thought so too," Kyle said with a smile.
"Then go ahead and have a look. I'll let Furong..." She glanced at the girl next to her, as if she had thought of something, and shook her head and said, "Forget it, let Gabrielle show you around, lest you be hated by her crazy suitors."
"Just following someone around will make people hate you?" Kanna was a little surprised. "Isn't that a bit too much?"
"If you were half Veela, you'd know it's not that hard to understand," Fleur said nonchalantly.
"Indeed." Kyle nodded.
The natural charm of Veela is like a perfume made from aphrodisiacs, which will make people unconsciously do some incomprehensible actions.
This is also the reason why she would cover her face with a hat in public. After all, it is not as safe outside as in school, and Furong is not strong enough to deal with all the troubles.
"But Gabrielle seems to be your sister." Kyle asked, "Is she different from you?"
"She is still young," Furong explained, "and she has more wizard blood, so it won't have much impact."
"And her English is the best here."
"No need to elaborate on this point." Kyle laughed dryly. "There's no need to make such a fuss. I won't be here for long. I'll be back in half a day at most. Can they chase me to England?"
"I'm not worried about you..." Ms. Maxim glanced at Kyle calmly, "I'm worried about my students."
"What does it mean."
"Is it hard to understand?" She chuckled. "Although I am in France, I have paid special attention to your deeds and actions... How should I put it? I don't want my students to faint for no reason or break a leg or something like that."
"There must be some misunderstanding here," Kyle said.
But before he could explain, he heard Ms. Maxime continue:
"Also, when I talked to Mr. Flamel again, he had the same opinion of you as I did. He thought you were not as... kind as you appeared."
"Of course, I'm not belittling you." Ms. Maxime walked around to the table at the side, took out a few standard-sized teacups, and with a touch of her finger, they were immediately filled with tea.
She held the cups like popcorn and placed them in front of Kyle and Connor.
