In the Harry Potter Without Harry Potter

Chapter 523: Walk out of the Tower

Sir Stoker froze for a moment at Jon's question, then he shook his head.

"It would be a breach of the Statute of Secrecy for a wizard to have any kind of casual contact with a Muggle, and any magical government would not let me off the hook if they knew about it. Besides, muggles aren't necessarily willing to share that part of their knowledge with our kind."

Too proper.

Jon smacked his lips as he felt compelled to step in and enlighten the Sir by himself.

"Let's not talk about the fact that magic can actually solve most of the problems, after all, it's kind of a violation of wizarding law, but Sir, who knighted your family?"

Sir Stoker still didn't quite understand what Jon meant, but he answered anyway.

"My ancestor worked as a healer for the royal family of the Capetian dynasty in France for a long time, and was knighted as a baronet, and although the knighthood was not passed down hereditarily later on, that's how other people have still referred to our family in the wizarding world."

"Does your family still have property in France? I mean property on the Muggle side?"

Sir Stoker said with a nod.

"My family still has some land, a large portion of which was acquired after the French crown was hanged, and there are also some antiques that are worth some money."

"Is there still any proof that once your ancestor was ennobled as a baronet?"

"Of course, that's always been kept in my study."

Jon clapped his hands together.

"You see, for Muggles, you have money, an ancestor with status, and have always still had proof of identity in France, so why can't you use your Muggle identity to gain access to the Muggle aerospace sector?"

Sir Stoker frowned.

"Is this kind of sector something that an average rich Muggle can just access?"

"If you're rich enough, you could even buy a rocket launching base, that thing you know? It's what Muggles use to launch a vehicle that can fly into space."

With the news Jon had seen in his previous life, he wasn't too sure about the European side, but in America, it is possible to actually buy a rocket launching base as long as you have the money!

Once again, his words had Sir Stoker in deep thought.

Jon continued.

"I admire your ideals and perseverance and persistence to stick to them Sir, but relying on one's own strength is ultimately limited, and since the Muggles are already ahead of us, why can't we just let go of all those rules and regulations and take the initiative to get in touch with them to learn about what we are not good at."

After saying this, he finished the last sip from his teacup and proceeded to get up from the couch.

"It's getting late Sir, it's been an honour to meet someone like you here today, I have other things to attend to and must head off."

Sir Stoker snapped out of his thoughts, he got up in a hurry, wanting to retain Jon for a bit longer, but Jon obviously did have no intention of staying here for a long time, and after he was sent to the door of the tower, he used Apparition to leave directly.

The purpose of Jon's visit was actually very simple, that is, he wanted to help this old Sir, who had his heart set on the sea of stars, to free his heart, so that he would not be confined to the tower that had bound him, but would go out and see more, especially on the Muggle side.

Not only would this help Sir to fulfil his dreams, but it might also have unexpected harvests for the relationship between wizards and muggles in the future.

And after Jon left, Sir Stoker re-entered the living room, where he sat alone on the sofa, still thinking.

He pondered for a long time, and it was only when the sun had gone down, and the house elf Rabier had made dinner and came to call him for the third time, that he suddenly smiled helplessly and stood up from the sofa.

"Do you need me to heat up dinner again, master?"

"No need to heat it up, go and pack up everything we have in this tower, and be quick about it, the old mansion side needs to be cleaned up before it can be inhabited as well."

Rabier looked up with a surprised face at the old man who had originally sworn not to come out of this tower for the rest of his life if he didn't uncover the secrets of the stars.

When Jon returned to Hogwarts, the afternoon classes in the school hadn't finished yet, and he greeted Dumbledore, then came to the Room of Requirement, where he requested an undisturbed room, and began to study the notebook that he had got from Slughorn.

He hadn't lied to the fat walrus, this note is indeed important, far more important than obtaining another set of gems and ring.

Because in the notes Adrien had stripped out the entire process of how he made the gems and ring, the materials and the process of making them, while not simple, were not difficult to replicate, and as long as Jon wanted to make them with all his heart and soul, he could just recreate a few sets of rings and gems.

But as he said, the further increase in spell spots really didn't do much to increase his strength.

Except for Animagus, all the other spells on the ring could give him a raise in the form of finesse while he was still underpowered, now if he wanted to go head-to-head with Voldemort that kind of finesse obviously wouldn't work.

But the method of making gemstones and ring pointed out to Jon a way to improve his skills.

Actually, it wasn't exactly pointing it out, because Adrian hadn't even finished writing this notebook yet, and at that time, he was already sick in bed and didn't have any more energy to experiment and try again.

Or rather, even if he had been healthy, he wouldn't have been able to carry on with this idea of his because he hadn't been able to find someone with a soul strong enough to the point of being able to use the ring.

This meant that Jon got an incomplete notebook, and according to Slughorn after he read it, some of the ideas in it were a bit like a pie in the sky.

The wizard named Adrien, wanted to replicate the process of making the gem and ring on the wizard's human body!

The body is the ring, and the soul is the gem.

Magic was transformed through the soul, which in turn cast spells on the body, allowing the wizard to break through the shackles of magic even further, thus truly achieving what was thought of and realised as the ultimate extreme of magic!

Magic concerning the human body itself was never safe, as in the case of traditional Animagus, there had been countless semi-humanoid magical creatures that had already given corroboration to the dangers of this kind of human transfiguration, and it was the same with Jon's desire to utilise the contents of this notebook to experiment on himself with the human body.

However, he already had a unique and huge advantage that no one else in the magical world had been able to match.

That being that his Animagus is a Phoenix, and even if the experiment goes awry, the big deal is that he can reverse all the mistakes by resurrecting himself once more by Nirvana!
