Chapter 261 Edward Flamel

The two Beauxbaton boys on the other side of the fountain were arguing fiercely, but Fleur, as if she was afraid of avoiding it, didn't explain anything to Maca, and called him and Luna to make a detour to avoid it quietly.

Seeing Furong's appearance, how can Maca not understand?

It's just that this matter obviously has nothing to do with him, and Furong didn't want to explain at all, so he just shrugged and followed with Luna.

The interior of Beauxbaton Castle is in a remarkable Baroque style. Whether it is tables, chairs, carpets or style carvings, they are all exquisite, gorgeous and unrestrained in complexity, and the color contrast is even more vivid and powerful, full of impact.

After avoiding the dispute over the fountain, Fleur put on her gentle and slightly proud smile again, and while leading Maca and Luna forward, introduced them to the corridor from time to time. Various decorative origins.

And her younger sister, Gabriel, quietly followed her sister, looking quite well-behaved and sensible.

Looking at the teaching environment of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Maca also had to nod his head. Compared to Hogwarts, Beauxbatons is obviously much richer!

Who let people have a good alumnus who can produce gold by alchemy?

He controlled his words and deeds at all times, so that he could maintain the necessary etiquette, but the pair of eyeballs glanced at all kinds of valuable things, thinking about the value contained in them.

Naturally, they didn't just wander around like this. At least, before that, they had to go to the headmaster, Mrs. Maxim, to say hello before continuing to stroll.

Following Furong all the way to the top floor, Maca and Luna stopped in front of a gorgeous door, letting Furong and Gabriel go in first to inform Maxim.

Before making them wait too long, Furong came out first.

"Mr. McLean," she said softly, "the headmaster is receiving guests at the moment..."

"We'll be fine for a while."

Maca didn't want Fu Rong to think that she would neglect her, so she nodded and spoke first, but she didn't think so, and the other party shook her head instead.

"...No, that's not the case," Fu Rong explained, "The guest heard that he was a student from Hogwarts, so he wanted to see him too..."

Having said that, she added, "...that's Mr. Nicolomel's housekeeper."

Macadam nodded knowingly.

"Mr. Nicholas and Professor Dumbledore are good friends, presumably because of this reason..." He thought for a while, then gestured, "Then let's say hello together! Otherwise, it will be rude."

But even though he said that, he was muttering in his heart that the history of magic had already been destroyed, and Nicholas didn't know if he and his wife had both passed away. How should he greet the housekeeper when he saw him later?

Is it possible to ask one more question: "Hey! Are your master and his wife dead?"

But no matter what he thinks in his heart, since he mentioned it, he still wants to see him.

After Furong pushed the door open, a spacious room immediately came into Maca's eyes. There are luxurious decorations everywhere, whether it is the desk, the bookcase, the coat rack, or the sofa chair for entertaining guests, there is an undisguised grace.

At this moment, the tall and tall Madame Maxime was sitting on the sofa chair, facing a white-bearded wizard who was obviously the old butler of the Nicolas family.

"Madam Maxim, it's a great honor to see you again. It's not long since we parted last time, and I'm here to disturb you again. If there is any impoliteness, please don't mind!"

Maca was talking clichés, but his gaze first looked at Maxim, and then moved to the old butler very naturally.

"You must be the butler of Mr. Nicolume's house," he continued politely, "Professor Dumbledore often talked to me about Mr. Nicolume's alchemy talent. Admiration for Mr. Flamel's achievements... don't know what I should call you?"

"Not so polite,

"The old butler smiled and said, "You can call me Edward... just now I heard that Mr. Dumbledore's student arrived, so I wanted to meet him on behalf of the master. "

Just as he was talking, the old butler Edward took a closer look at Maca, and then continued: "I heard from the master earlier that he said that Mr. McLean was Mr. Dumbledore's best student. When he heard that you transferred to the German school When I was in Armstrong, I still didn't believe it!"

Hearing Edward mention this matter, Maca's expression did not change at all, and he still maintained a calm smile on his face.

"Yes! Speaking of it, I don't believe it either!" Maca laughed, "It's just that there are always unexpected changes in this world. Every step in life will lead you to a completely different future."

He didn't mean to explain anything about this matter at all, he would understand what he could understand, and he didn't need to explain so much if he couldn't understand.

Perhaps it was because there was a servant for every kind of master, and this old butler also seemed to have extraordinary knowledge. Although Maca once made a big fuss at the final of the Quidditch World Cup and got involved with the evil Death Eaters, the old man was still calm.

"Mr. McLean is indeed very intelligent, and the last sentence he said casually is thought-provoking..."

Probably unable to stand the old and the young complimenting each other, Mrs. Maxim quickly reached out her hand and signaled to Maca: "Mr. McLean, don't stand still, please sit down! And this... Lovegood Miss?"

In the second project of the final match, Luna was locked in the maze as Maca's hostage, so Mrs. Maxim still had a little impression.

"Yes, this is Luna Lovegood, a Ravenclaw student."

While Maca was introducing, he was not polite any more, and took Luna and sat down on the spare sofa chair next to him.

Luna who was beside him leaned slightly when she heard them mentioning her, with a slightly dazed smile on her face.

Seeing that they sat down, Furong and Gabriel smiled at them, and then went out first.

"How do you feel about coming to Beauxbatons today? I wonder if you are satisfied with the environment here?" Madame Maxime smiled and said, "If there is any place you want to visit, I can ask Delacour to take you there later. It doesn't take too long restrained."

Maca nodded politely, and joked: "Your school's teaching environment is very beautiful, so I can't help but want to stay here to study. I heard it as early as Hogwarts, and your school's bursary is comparable to that of Hogwarts. Taller than Durmstrang's!"

To be honest, although Maca was feeling sorry for Beauxbaton's wealth all the way, he was really not interested in letting him live in this kind of place.

Beauxbaton's school rules are actually very strict, especially in terms of etiquette, which is even more cumbersome, sometimes even to the point of harshness.

One of Beauxbaton's traditions is that when the principal enters the room, the students must stand at attention and not sit down until the principal is seated to show respect for the principal.

If he wants to live in this kind of place for a year or so, should he still work?

Whether at Hogwarts or at Durmstrang, he kept everything simple and focused on magic research, and when did he pay attention to etiquette.

Now that Beauxbaton is a guest, he can still pretend to cope, but if it takes a long time, won't he be exhausted?

"Oh... I'm relieved to hear that you can say that!" Of course Mrs. Maxim also knew that he was joking, so she also smiled, "If possible, please stay a few more days. The guest rooms are prepared for guests, and now it is summer vacation, Mr. McLean can stay and experience the beauty of Beauxbatons more."

Of course, there is nothing wrong with staying for a few days, but if we continue around these polite words, it is estimated that the next topic should include the French magic world.

Maca intentionally kept the conversation short, so he simply threw the conversation to the old butler Edward.

"Oh... thank you for your hospitality, I am very honored." He said, and changed the subject naturally, "Madam, don't worry about me, since Madam is still entertaining guests, please continue Madam and Mr. Edward, I will first Went to visit other places.“

However, he wanted to rub the soles of his feet with oil, but someone refused.

"Oh! Mr. McLean is too polite," the old butler said with a smile. "It's okay, my wife and I just talked about an interesting thing. If Mr. McLean is interested, why don't you come and listen to it together."

Although he said it very casually, it was an invitation after all, so he obviously said that because he valued him. If he refused Maca casually, he would be ignorant.

That being the case, he could only smile and nodded, waiting for Edward or Maxim to continue.

Luna on the side didn't care at all, she turned her head sideways to look at the landscape oil painting on the wall, staring at it for a moment, as if she had started to focus on herself again.

"It's like this..."

The old butler paused, and then began to tell a story about his master Nicolome.

In fact, most wizards who study alchemy like to toss about cryptography. However, the cryptography in the wizarding world is very different from that of Muggles. Fundamentally speaking, it is still based on various special ancient runes.

And his master Nicolume is also proficient in the in-depth research of many kinds of ancient runes.

It's just that, nearly a hundred years ago, during his travels around the world, Nick Lemer discovered a very special ancient character from the ruins of an ancient ruin. It is not yet known whether it has magical power.

It took him a lot of time to decipher part of this ancient character, but it didn't take long for him to completely throw this ancient character aside.

Recently, when the old housekeeper Edward was arranging things, he turned over those stone slabs engraved with ancient characters. But he found that these stone slabs were very strange.

"...It can even be said to be 'weird'!" The old butler said with a complete expression.
