"I can't do magic. So I can't teach you magic. ”

Mrs. Figg put the basket aside and sat down in front of Dadley with regret.

Dudley could hear a deep sense of loss in this sentence.

Born in the wizarding world but unable to learn magic, this can no longer be described as a pity.

"Even if I know magic, I can't teach you, you have to go to Hogwarts to learn magic, it's a rule in the wizarding world."

Mrs. Figg said as she began to tidy up the messed room.

One cat is enough for Huohuo, three cats and a monster book, it's like making a fuss.

"Hogwarts?"

Dudley also began to help sort it out, wondering if to tell Mrs. Feige about the current state of the monster book.

You don't have to pay it yourself, right?

What currency do wizards use? It seems to be some kind of gold coin.

"Yes, it's the best magic school in the world." At the mention of Hogwarts, Mrs. Figg immediately came to her senses.

"Harry will definitely go there to study in the future."

There was yearning in his tone.

Dudley was also fascinated by listening to it, learning magic... I really want to learn magic...

"Can I go to Hogwarts then?" Dudley asked the gods.

Mrs. Feig shook her head, "I don't know, kid. ”

Dudley would ask that, and she didn't expect it, there wasn't a child who didn't want to know about magic.

In fact, Mrs. Figg also knew that Dudley would most likely not be able to go to Hogwarts.

Muggles and Muggle children are basically still Muggles.

The large number of Muggle wizards was based on the large Muggle base.

Not to mention that there is no one in ten thousand, it is not far behind.

Pick any Muggle kid and the odds of the other person being a Muggle wizard are not much smaller than winning the lottery.

Under the chat between the two of them, the room was quickly cleaned up.

"All right, kid. I'm going to get dinner ready, and Harry will be out of school in a moment. ”

As Mrs. Figg was about to close the door to her room, Dudley pulled out a black-covered book out of nowhere.

"Mrs. Fig, may I read this book?"

"Magic Potions and Potions", a few large letters written on the cover.

This is the textbook for the first year Potions class at Hogwarts.

The author is Arsenny Giger, a wizard who is very good at making potions.

As for why a Squib has magic books in his house...

She can't learn it, can't she buy it and take a look?

What if one day Mrs. Figg's magical talent awakens?

There are no rules and Squibs can't buy magic-related books.

So it makes sense.

As for the yokai book, it was an accident.

"Please."

"I really want to learn magic."

Before Mrs. Figg refused, Dudley hurriedly said.

He said this from the heart, and he really longed for magic.

As someone who lives on the edge of magic and non-magic, Mrs. Figg knows Dudley's feelings all too well.

Maybe it was Dudley's sincere eyes, or maybe it was Dudley's words, 'I really want to learn magic', that touched Mrs. Feig.

She agreed to Dudley's request.

It would be too cruel to refuse a child's request and then tell him that he is not destined to become a wizard in his life.

Mrs. Figg is a good man, and good people are soft-hearted.

In fact, according to the rules of the Magical Secrecy Act, Muggles are not allowed to access magic, not even magical knowledge.

However, Dudley is in a special situation, his brother is the famous Harry Potter, and his aunt is Lily Potter, who is destined to know magic and is destined to come into contact with the wizarding world.

It doesn't matter if Dudley really has a magical talent or not, having a magical talent just learns potions in advance doesn't hurt, and if you don't have it, you can't release magic anyway, so it doesn't matter, many potion materials can't be bought in the Muggle world.

And Dudley had been planning for a long time to take this potions book, and he had his eyes on it as early as tidying up his room.

You don't need to know magic to learn potions.

As Professor Snape, the Potions Master, said in his first class, "I don't need you to be stupid waving your wand in my class, and you don't need to chant incantations."

In a sense, even Muggles can make potions as long as they have the materials.

"By the way, Mrs. Fig, I hit it... Suddenly, the state seems to be a little wrong. ”

Dudley handed the floppy monster book to Mrs. Figg and confessed.

"Did you hang up?"

If you lose, you will pay.

Mrs. Feige waved her hand indifferently: "Don't worry, the monster book vitality of the monsters is much more tenacious than you think." Don't say it's you beaten, even if you are smashed by an adult with a hammer, it's fine, you see it's like this. ”

Mrs. Figg pinched the spine of the book, and then shivered.

Originally, Dudley's monster book had been hammered to death by himself, but he slowly opened his eyes.

"Dudley, it's actually very easy to deal with this book, I'll make a demonstration, just touch it on the spine... Well? ”

The expected violent reaction did not materialize, and the monster book did not struggle or bite after waking up, but only stared blankly, with all four eyes facing to one side, and drooping tongue and dripping saliva.

It's over, I was stupid by a punch...

At least a severe concussion.

Dudley was embarrassed and wanted to cover his face.

Mrs. Feig was silent for a while, and then continued: "Even if there is a problem, it is fine, and it just so happens that I don't like this book." ”

Anyway, I brought it for someone else. ’

Mrs. Figg added silently in her heart.

From then on, in addition to going to school and exercising every day, Dudley stayed at Mrs. Figg's house and nibbled on the book "Magic Potions and Potions".

Mrs. Feige thought that Dudley was just curious about magic, and she couldn't last long, after all, potions were the most boring and boring subject in the magic discipline outside of the history of magic.

I didn't expect Dudley to fall in love with this book.

Harry was also puzzled by this, although Dudley had studied hard before, he had never been so crazy, to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.

It was Dudley, and he forgot to eat.

Harry was also curious to see what Dudley was reading, but gave up when he saw the large pages of text.

It is impossible to take the initiative in active learning, as long as you keep your grades up and down.

I didn't even read the content carefully, and I don't know if I will regret it in a few years.

The page Harry was reading was about the difference between scapular aconitum and wolf venom aconitum aconitum.

To be examined.

Dudley's time at Mrs. Figg's house was a happy one, with cats, magic books, and the freedom to make good food.

Life is boundless.

It's so refreshing to swim in the ocean of knowledge.

A month later, Dudley had finally finished the entire book of Magical Potions and Potions.

Now the difference is practice.

Mrs. Feige would not let such a dangerous thing as making potions for a child who was not even a wizard, she was a squib after all, and there was nothing she could do to stop it if something happened.

And so Dudley's potions studies ended there.

Dudley was wondering if he could get another magic book from Mrs. Figg to read, when the system beep that hadn't been seen for a long time rang again.

"Complete the learning task: finish your first magic book."

"Reward: Activate Shinji Makiri's Magician Talent."

That's what this system is not good about, and sometimes it's an afterthought.

Don't actively post tasks, and always notify you of rewards when you're done.
