Chapter 38: Christmas dinner with Nicolas Flamel

He got some gifts from them too.

His Goldy received some good treats from him that are its favorite.

The extra left with him were given to the phoenix today.

Jonathan did not give any gifts to Malfoy family or Hermione or any other person that he did not like.

After Jonathan got ready he was taken to the house of Nicolas in the evening.

Dumbledore has other things he wanted to take care of during the night.

The house of Nicolas Flamel is very normal just like the house of slug horn.

In the house only the old couple of Nicolas and his wife live.

There is an old house elf called merry that is working here.

Dumbledore introduced Jonathan to Nicolas and Jonathan acted very politely without showing any airs of the black family or nobility.

Nicolas nodded inside his mind.

They went to have a dinner directly.

The dining table is full with various rare dishes.

Jonathan was happy to eat.

Well humans earn money for two main things not matter what they say.

It is to eat good tasty food and to sleep comfortably.

These are the most primary needs that any person wants to have.

So Jonathan perfectly enjoyed his every meal and gets the full sleep he wanted not matter what happens.

Well he did this as much as possible for him to have.

During the lunch he did not act like a hungry ghost but he did compliment the dishes that he liked and ate without showing much modesty.

Naturally the old people thought that Jonathan did not get to eat good dishes during his time at Malfoy family.

This increased their pity towards him and this in turn increased their closeness towards him along with good impression.

Even Dumbledore has different thoughts.

Sometimes it is not big things but some minute details would cause big impact when it matters the most.

Finally the dinner is over and the group went to the hall to have desserts.

Right then Nicolas started to talk to Jonathan one on one.

“Mister Jonathan, did you like the dinner?”

Jonathan modestly said.

“They are very well made, thank you for the treat sir.”

Jonathan said with puppy dog eyes and innocent face.

A villain needs to be able to produce many expressions at moment’s notice so that he can change the situations and make people trust him more.

Then Nicolas asked another question about Jonathan’s letter and his interest in alchemy.

Jonathan then started to explain about his thought on alchemy and his littler understanding.

For his age his understanding of alchemy is already great.

So Nicolas was satisfied with the response.

Dumbledore was also satisfied with the response too.

But there is still one more point that Nicolas has to ask Jonathan to make sure that Jonathan is of right character.

“Mister Jonathan, do you know about the philosopher’s stone.”

Jonathan nodded his head and started to explain what he knows.

“The Philosopher's Stone was a legendary alchemical substance with magical properties.

This ruby-red stone could be used to create the Elixir of Life, which made the drinker immortal, as well as transform any metal into pure gold.

The only known stone in this current era was made by you sir.

But I think that there is one flaw to it.

Based on the ancient texts related to the philosopher's stone it should also give youth making the person look at his optimum body situation along with immortality.

But the stone made by you is naturally not to that level.

In the past there was one philosopher’s stone available in ancient Egypt that is said to have come from the sun god Ra.

It is called the star Isis that would produce gold along with the youth and immortality water.

Also this stone can cure illnesses and diseases of the people keeping the place it was present healthy and prosperous.

Similarly there was a philosopher’s stone appearance in India in the hands of a god king lord Krishna.

They called it Shamantakamani

It is red is a red stone that is said to produce gold under the sun light and keep the person wearing it and the place it present devoid of disasters with good prosperity and health.

Also the stone emits a strong light like the sun itself….”

Jonathan explained the knowledge he has on the philosopher’s stone.

Jonathan was frank without any airs.

He did not point out that Nicolas is at fault but he said about various types of philosopher’s stones previously present and the difference.

Nicolas nodded his head.

He understands the fault of his own creation. 

He was satisfied with Jonathan being frank unlike others that praise him for his creation and nonsense.

Dumbledore was also happy as his thought of negativity towards Jonathan started to break off.

Jonathan smirked inside his mind as he was just playing tricks.

With this solved Nicolas asked Jonathan.

“Mister Jonathan, what would you do if I gave you the philosopher’s stone?

Would you make gold?

Would you like to be immortal like me?”

Jonathan knows how to answer this.

“Sir, with all due respect, I could not take the philosopher’s stone.

Even if I took it, I could not keep it with me.

It is no different than having a death sentence to a person like me.

Even though I like the gold that can become a funding means for my future research,

Likes the immortality that can let me research as much as I want with extended life.

Well every researcher likes that.

But I prefer to life to see another day with good food and good sleep instead of holding something I should not have held on to my hands.

I want to research and become someone great but for that I have to stay alive first.

It might look selfish but I cherish my life.

So I cannot accept the philosopher’s stone, even if you magnanimously gave it to me.

I know my limits very well.”
