Chapter 261: Don't worry, Tom, I'll help you.
The group arrived at a suitable Quidditch field, and Kael seemed to suddenly remember something. He asked, "Did you mention me earlier this morning?"
"It was Harry..." Fred said, "Oh no, it should be Hermione... Forget it, you tell him."
After passing the question to Harry, he mounted his broom and went to compete with George for the "Ghost Flyer" woven from a cane.
Kael looked at Harry...
"It's not that important." Harry said, "Will you sell automatic ink feather quills? How much do they cost?"
He thought for a moment and added, "Like the one you gave to Ron."
Kael shook his head, "I probably won't sell them. How about you, do you want one?"
The feather quill was just a by-product of his alchemical practice, and he never thought of selling it as a product.
There's no need for that.
Even if it's magical, it's just a quill for writing, and it's not appropriate to sell it at a high price. If it's sold cheaply, it's really a waste of time, after all, it's quite troublesome to make that thing.
Moreover, he will probably take twelve classes this year, and Kael doesn't want to give himself extra tasks.
"It's not me, it's Hermione." Harry explained, "She seems to like that quill very much."
"No wonder..." Kael realized.
Harry wouldn't be interested in the quill, but if it's Hermione, it makes sense.
"I'll give her one after school starts." Kael continued.
"I dare say Hermione will be very happy."
"It's just a quill, it's nothing." Kael waved his hand.
After all, he had just used someone else's template, and it was only right to give a gift.
...
The group played until evening before returning, mainly because Ginny was not convinced. She borrowed Harry's Firebolt 2000 and wanted to compare with Kael.
Naturally, the result didn't need to be said... Ginny lost so much that she began to doubt her life.
On the way back to the burrow, she held Ron's heavy "Meteor" and kept making gestures behind Kael, seemingly looking for a suitable angle to give him a stunner.
Fortunately, the group hurried to eat, so they walked quickly and returned to the burrow before she could strike.
In the following days, Kael acted as if he had forgotten about the diary, either researching the production of new maps or helping Fred and George perfect their magic wands.
It wasn't until three days later that he reopened the box.
As soon as he flipped open the notebook, a line of words appeared on the blank paper.
【Long time no see】
Riddle didn't complain, but greeted him like an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time.
【Have you been busy lately? If it's a schoolwork issue, I can help you.】
"Sorry, Tom."
Kael wrote, "I've been studying a magical item with a neighbor's classmate lately and have become a bit obsessed."
【It's okay, I understand because I'm the same.】
"Do you like magical items too?" Kael asked.
【Of course, don't forget that this magical diary is my creation.】
【Remember when we were in fourth grade, I sat in a secluded corridor to figure out the secrets of those magical portraits, and even forgot to go to class.】
【So, have you succeeded?】
"Not yet, there's a problem we haven't been able to solve."
Holding the quill, Kael wrote quickly, "Tom, can you help us?"
"Of course, we're friends."
Kyle recalled the problems Fred and George had encountered and recounted them to Riddle.
It was probably only a few seconds...
"There are some issues with your magical formula, the magic formula that represents 'trigger' should be placed at the end, not at the front."
Then, Riddle also wrote out the meanings represented by each magic formula and the points to pay attention to when arranging them.
The magic formula is the core content of ancient Runic script and an important part of alchemy.
Kyle hadn't understood those alchemy notes and books before because he wasn't familiar with the magic formula.
And this part of the content, Nicole couldn't teach him... and couldn't teach it, because it took too long, and those magic formulas had become instinctive to him, like writing and speaking.
When needed, he could just use them, why would he remember why they should be arranged like this.
But Riddle's teaching was much more detailed, which was something Kyle hadn't thought of.
However, if you don't understand the knowledge related to ancient magic formulas, Riddle wouldn't have been able to enter the Borgin-Burkes store as an intern right after graduation.
The standard for hiring in dark magic stores is much higher than in Diagon Alley.
Kyle's eyes lit up, thinking that the things he thought he would have to wait a long time to learn, now it seems that he doesn't have to wait so long.
The error-free version is in Book 69! Book 6 = 9 + Book! The first novel in the bar.
Next, Kyle completely turned the diary into a point-reading machine... where he didn't know where to point.
Riddle was also very conscientious, always giving answers, and even adding his own summary to make it easier for Kyle to understand.
The only bad thing is that he always adds some of his own stuff, openly and secretly asking about things going on outside.
But Kyle didn't mind, even though the experience was a bit worse, it's free stuff after all, and there's no need to pay later, so why bother asking for so much.
Just ignore it as an ad, okay?
After a few more days, Riddle finally couldn't hold back.
"Can you tell me about the school situation?"
Kyle was enthusiastically recording the derived meanings of the magic formula and the meanings represented by different formulas.
"I can't help but wonder what the school is like now that it's been fifty years."
"Have you ever seen Armando Dippet, the former principal? Is he very old?"
"You're talking about the previous principal, I haven't seen him."
Kyle wrote: "The current principal is Albus Dumbledore."
The diary fell silent again, and for a long time, no new words appeared.
"Tom, are you still there?"
"Sorry, I suddenly thought of something else."
"Is it because of Principal Dumbledore?"
"Yes, but in my memory, he was a professor of Transfiguration, not the principal."
"I guess you must miss him."
"Don't worry, Tom, as a friend, I'll help you."
"What?"
"After school starts, I'll give the diary to him and let you talk."
Kyle wrote cheerfully, "A reunion after fifty years, if Principal Dumbledore sees you, he must be very happy, right?"
