Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 289 Luminous Powder Display

"What magic lamp?"

"Oh, if Sainz hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten. It's like this, Angelina. One time we were in a Muggle Studies class together, and we were talking about what we were doing during the summer vacation. Sainz said that he was making magic lamps during the summer vacation, and he said he would give me some when he finished them."

"Is that all?" Ben looked up at the lights on the ceiling curiously.

"No, although these can be considered magic lights, that's not what I wanted to make at the time... It just so happens that I have some here, can you help me take a look?"

"hurry up!"

"Dean!"

"Master," the dean came out of the housekeeper's room, "are you looking for me?"

"Go get some glow powder, a little of everything, and a base as well...

I noticed that most wizards use candles or oil lamps at home, which are very dim. Electric lamps are not easy to use due to the influence of magic, so I thought, should I make a lighting device that is very convenient to use and has brightness that is not inferior to electric lamps or even better..."

"Saienz, you are amazing. You were only in the third grade at that time... I remember that you only took classes with Alia in the third grade?" Angelina said admiringly, "Including these alchemical puppets of yours, they are exactly the same as real people!"

"Brother!" Ben sat in front of the zither and plucked the strings curiously, "You really did a lot of things behind our backs!"

"Who told you not to be interested? What do you think I do every day when I leave early and come back late?"

Ben shuddered. "Forget it. I'd rather not have these things than be immersed in books like you!"

"Master, here's what you asked for." The dean brought over a wide, long box with multiple compartments - its shape resembled an enlarged version of a multi-compartment spice box - and a short object that resembled a tall microphone.

"Thank you. I'll put it here... Come on... everyone, give me some advice and see how I did with this thing."

The three of them looked around the pedestal. "Is this the magic lamp? How do you light it up?"

"Uh... Actually, the ones in the box are the lights. That one is just a base that allows children who haven't yet started magic to use the glow powder. I'll talk about that later."

"Sainz, are you mistaken?" Angelina opened the lid and looked, "Is this a lamp?"

Ben said, "Yeah, why does this green one look so much like Floo powder?"

Alia said, "Yeah, I thought it would be like a lamp or something, but the base looks more like one."

"Haha, who says a magic lamp has to look like an ordinary lamp?

Ben, you are right, the glow powder is inspired by Floo powder, and the way to use it is very similar to Floo powder, just grab a little and sprinkle it out. "

“Why are there so many colors here?”

"I think lights with only one color are too monotonous, so I made them in many colors, and each color of luminous powder will emit light of the corresponding color!"

"Wow, doesn't that mean there are... a dozen or so?"

"Yes, there will be more in the future?"

“Can I use several colors together?”

"Aliya, you got the point right away!"

"Stop talking and let us see it!" Angelina urged.

"Okay, turn off the lights!" Following Sainz's instructions, all the lights in the living room went out, and the surroundings suddenly became dark.

"Like this, it's very similar to Floo powder, it needs to be gently stimulated with magic."

Sainz pinched a handful of white luminous powder and sprinkled it on the wall. The place where the luminous powder was sprinkled immediately lit up with a white light, like fluorescent agent sprinkled on the wall. The stars were beautiful, but the light intensity was much stronger than the fluorescent agent.

Ben looked at the powder in the box, then at the light coming from the wall. "The living room is now bright. It's much clearer than with candles!"

"This is the initial brightness I set. Its brightness can be adjusted. This requires the use of a magic wand, like this!" Sainz used the magic wand to point to the glowing point, "Just adjust the brightness in your mind."

The light on the wall became brighter as Sainz operated, until it became a little dazzling, which was the threshold he set in advance, and then began to dim until it went out.

"That's basically it. You can try it. Just like Alia said, it's still very beautiful if you use multiple colors together."

Several people tried powders of various colors with great interest and used them in combination.

Everyone likes beautiful things. Why do people like to watch fireworks? Isn’t it because fireworks are gorgeous enough? Sainz’s luminous powder can be combined to create an effect that is even more gorgeous than fireworks.

"Sainz, brother!" Ben was very excited. "I dare say that if your glow powder is sold out, it will definitely sell out!"

"I feel relieved when I hear you say that!"

Sainz deliberately said regretfully, "But as you can see, I still have to go to work and don't have time to manage these. I am not confident in letting others manage them. The purpose of letting you identify it today is, first, to hear your opinions on it, and second, to see if anyone among you is willing to help me take care of these."

"We're only in sixth grade!" Alia said uncertainly, and the other two nodded in agreement, saying that they were all still in school and definitely couldn't do it.

Hearing the uncertainty in Alia's tone, Sainz knew what was going on. "Hey, who told you now? Of course we have to wait until graduation..."

Then he changed the subject, "But if anyone is planning to drop out of school..."

Ben immediately shook his head like a rattle, "Then my mom will take off my clothes and throw me under the bed to stink. Besides, what lunatic would want to drop out of school?

Uh...what's wrong, why are you two looking at me like that?" He asked the two girls in confusion.

"Ben, I suggest you organize your words and say it again!" Alia advised him.

"That's right, what kind of idiot would drop out of school... uh... sorry!" He finally realized something.

"I'm sorry, I just dropped out of school!" Sainz said playfully with a dangerous look in his eyes, "And I've become a teaching assistant, and maybe one day I'll become a professor. Mr. Stebbins, I suggest you be more careful when you speak in the future!"

If Sainz hadn't said it, others would even subconsciously ignore the fact that he only went to the sixth grade and stopped going to school, and successfully joined Hogwarts when he should have been in the seventh grade. This may seem like nothing, but it is actually more difficult than joining the Ministry of Magic.

As for the issue of dropping out of school, Sai would say: Nowadays, if you don’t drop out of school to start a business, you can still stay in the entrepreneurial circle!

Sainz muttered in his mind, "Why were the twins' careers so prosperous in the original trajectory? Wasn't it because of their luck of "dropping out of school"?!"

Hey, of course that was just a joke he made up. If someone really did that, he would lose all his fortune.

Of course, if he also has a father who is the head of a department in the Ministry of Magic, just pretend he didn't say anything!
