Chapter Thirty-Nine: Caught in the Joy of Teaching

A green flame was floating quietly on the counter, burning quietly.

This is what Voldemort gave Carl to exchange for dragon eggs.

"It's ...... Gublai Immortal Fire?" Bo Jin looked at the flames on the counter in surprise.

"That's right. Karl nodded.

Truth be told, when Voldemort asked Quirrell to pull out the flame, Carl looked a little moved.

The Gubrai Immortal Fire, known as the Eternal Flame, has been enchanted to burn forever.

Despite its humble appearance, it is a very precious thing.

Generally, when a wizard casts a spell on something, the magical effect fades when they die.

But the Gubrai Immortal Fire, even if the wizard who created this flame dies, the flame will continue to exist forever.

The flame itself has no peculiar effect, but it can burn forever.

But it is this characteristic that gives the flame a certain mystical color.

Many shamans believe that the Ghublai Flame represents eternal life in some way.

Such a flame, according to the current price level, can be sold for at least two thousand Galleons alone, and there is no market.

This price is already more than the selling price of most of the products in Bogin's current store.

It's enough to exchange for a dragon egg.

Bojin stretched out his hand, as if to touch it, but before he could touch it, he retracted as if electrocuted.

Karl couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, and the things that Voldemort conjured up with magic were naturally stained with some of his own preferences and traits.

Not only because it is green, but also because there is a huge temptation on this Gubulai Immortal Fire.

Ordinary people only need to take a look at it, and they will fall into it, and Bokin's self-control is very good.

With a cough that drew Bogin's attention away from the flames, Karl said, "You should have a way to check its authenticity, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Bo Jin woke up from a dream, nodded yes, and took out his wand and whispered a spell into the flames.

Karl watched silently as he cast his spell.

In fact, this flame, according to Voldemort, was the cheapest of his many private collections.

Come to think of it, this kind of eternal fire conjured by magic is precious, but it is because there are very few people who can successfully perform this kind of magic.

In Voldemort's heyday, with his magical attainments, even if the production method was a little more troublesome, he still wanted as many of this kind of flame as he wanted.

......

With Mr. Borgin's incessant bow, Carl was gifted out of the store.

He carried an old-fashioned brown lockbox in his hand, which had been expanded to hold the things he had changed this time.

A ball of Gublé fairy fire was exchanged for the dragon egg from the Romanian fire dragon smuggler in the box, plus five hundred gold Galleons in pocket money.

For both parties, it was a bargain and everything was happy.

Walking down the brick and stone road of Tumbledown Alley, this time, no one dared to beat his idea, even if he carried a lockbox in his hand that was clearly filled with good things.

After taking a few steps forward, Karl was apparition in place.

When he came out again, he was back on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and Hogwarts Castle was in his sight again.

Touching Hades' feathers on his shoulder, Carl laughed happily.

Almost no one knew that this was what Voldemort told Carl -

In addition to the advantages just mentioned, the animal that Madletus turns into has an additional characteristic.

In the Ministry of Magic's monitoring network, even if Madridus is completely transformed into an animal, it is still identified as a human.

As long as he carried it, Carl would be protected from the detection of the trace by default of having an adult wizard by his side.

In this way, even in England, he could escape the restrictions of the Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards Act.

That's what Carl really values about it.

Unfortunately, with his current magical attainments, it was almost impossible to replicate his previous success.

After all, the previous time was entirely because his face was so touching the heavens.

......

It's November, and since Carl helped Voldemort get the dragon egg, he didn't care about the rest of the matter.

According to Voldemort, Quirrell would take care of everything that followed.

However, every Wednesday night at 11 p.m., Karl would go to the Requirement Floor as usual to receive guidance from Voldemort.

He didn't ask for too much, thinking that he would be satisfied with exchanging the blood of a unicorn for one or two mentoring from Voldemort.

But Voldemort seems to have his own plans, and every Wednesday he shows up on time at the Room of Requirement to give Carl a lesson in person.

This seems to have become the norm.

The two seem to be attending classes longer and longer each time.

From the initial ten minutes, it has gradually become more than half an hour now.

Carl vaguely felt that it seemed that Voldemort was now living an addiction to being a teacher because he failed to apply to become a Hogwarts teacher twice when he was younger.

Even if the purpose of his application to become a teacher at that time was not simple.

No matter what Grindelwald said about Voldemort, in Carl's opinion, Voldemort was indeed a rare good teacher.

Rather than instilling in Carl a particularly advanced theory of magic, he started with the details, pointing out the areas of his knowledge that were particularly easy to overlook.

That's exactly what Carl needs.

In general, Carl has a large collection of books in the entire Hogwarts library as a backup, and Voldemort has given him the copy of "Secrets of Cutting-edge Dark Arts", the latter of which he has not finished so far.

Therefore, he does not lack advanced knowledge of magic theory.

What he lacks most is this kind of detail.

None of these books were taught, and Professor McGonagall did not allow him to sit in on them in the senior year.

Therefore, in the absence of guidance, he can only rely on his own comprehension, but in this way, there is a serious lack of systematization.

Voldemort, on the other hand, made up for his shortcomings in this regard.

Under Voldemort's tutelage, he began to become more sophisticated in his spellcasting, and his use of spells became more sophisticated.

At the same time, the magic effects have become much more powerful than before.

The most direct effect of these combinations is that what used to require multiple combinations of magic to achieve is now often only one or two spells needed to hit the nail on the head and achieve the same goal.

And, it's not just about fighting.

His daily magic also began to gradually become much more efficient than before.

And all of this somewhat gave Carl a strange idea.

If Voldemort had come to Hogwarts for the second time to apply to be a teacher, and Dumbledore, who was already the headmaster at the time, had chosen to let Voldemort stay, would everything have changed differently?

After all, Voldemort hadn't completely lost his humanity at that time, and maybe he would have fallen into the joy of teaching.

Of course, who knows what the real result of this kind of thing that didn't happen at all?
