Chapter 463: Hogwarts Learning Panel Chapter 195

"But you must remember, alchemists pursue practice as the source of truth.

This book contains too much fantasy; it is something that happens in dreams. It can serve as a reference experience, but it must never become the flagpole of direction.

As for whether it truly describes that greatest wizard, we cannot know."

"So, at least some content in this book is real, isn't it, Professor?"

Xiang Xiang Xien asked sharply.

"This is, of course, something ethereal that happened in a person's dream, child, but why does that mean it isn't true?"

Professor Professor Taila said slowly.

Xiang Xiang Xien fell into deep thought; he sensed that this book seemed not so simple.

Just like The Tale of the Three Brothers, they might be referring to something, conveying some message.

But Xiang Xiang Xien soon stopped caring.

Rather than wasting time on ethereal things, he might as well practice Soul Transfiguration twice more.

A small portion of the Wizarding World has always firmly believed that those mysterious books—such as The Tale of the Three Brothers—are conveying a hidden message to them, a message exactly opposite to what is written in black and white, and only they possess enough wisdom to fathom it.

For instance, if a person legally possesses all three Deathly Hallows, he or she will become the "Master of Death"; this statement is usually understood to mean they are invincible, even immortal.

But the fact is exactly the opposite.

Xiang Xiang Xien slowly put down The Dream Stories.

If the story described inside is true, then sooner or later he will be able to achieve it; if the story is false, then what use is there in being intoxicated by it?

He turned to take out the secret manuals given by Witch Abigail; these were treasures of Uagadou that were never shared outside, and their allure was far greater than that of The Dream Guide.

Beside him,

Professor Professor Taila was slightly dazed; she wore a faint smile, and her gaze revealed pride.

The Dream Stories are legends that leaked from Uagadou; countless African wizards once believed in them superstitiously, which also led to the prosperity of their astronomy, transfiguration, and Lian Jin Shu.

But the fact is, no one truly knows whether this story is true or false, just like the legend of the Three Brothers.

……

The Fairy Tale Workshop is about to close.

The wizards all walked out; they used various strange and bizarre methods to leave Diagon Alley, some even leaving Britain.

Xiang Xiang Xien gained many tricks for Soul Transfiguration from the book in his hand; he walked towards Professor Professor Qiluo with satisfaction—he had to hand some potions over to the professor.

At this moment, Professor Professor Sineipu was almost furious:

"What are you doing?! Damn it—get over here!"

A person who has been a Death Eater cannot be trusted; Professor Professor Sineipu knew this better than anyone.

Since they could yield to violence, desire, and fear once, it is quite normal for them to get lost a second time.

This sudden outburst made Abigail, who was preparing to leave, turn back, and it also made Professor Professor Taila sit back down on her seat with some excitement.

"Professor Taila, what is going on?"

Abigail asked.

"Shut up and watch."

Professor Professor Taila said indifferently.

Abigail dared not speak her anger, so she could only turn her face red with rage,

"I give you that guide to using the Holy Stone."

She said as if she were venting her fury.

"Oh?"

Professor Professor Taila did not expect such an unexpected joy; she looked deeply at Abigail,

"I always like your little schemes…"

Xiang Xiang Xien explained the process of his hiring Professor Professor Qiluo without much effort, while Professor Professor Sineipu sat with a gloomy face.

He had long suspected how so many potions disappeared from the young wizard's vault; it turned out they were fed to rats…

"You had better—be clear about what you are doing—"

He finished speaking without emotion, then walked in front of Professor Professor Qiluo,

"I will watch you; this time, before you do something stupid, I will kill you—"

His threat made Professor Professor Qiluo pale, but this time, Professor Professor Qiluo was no longer as tearful and weak as he was at Hogwarts.

"I only have one life to dedicate to Mr. Green; I will never waste it in such a place…"

These words even made Professor Professor Sineipu pause for a moment.
