"Allen, you mentioned that you wanted to consult my parents about something …" Hermione saw that they were almost done with the small talk, so she took the initiative to ask about the topic that Allen had brought up before entering the Grindelwald residence. "What can they help you with with your magic potions?"
"Magic potions?" Mr. Granger was confused. "Allen, the only magic potion we've ever taken is the Elixir of Immortality that you gave us. Other than the fact that it doesn't taste good, there's nothing special about it."
"Are the dental floss and mints that Hermione always brings back counted as magic potions?" Mrs. Granger asked with uncertainty. "They can protect our teeth."
"I don't mean the Elixir of Immortality and the candy." Allen smiled and shook his head. He then pointed to the direction of the Hogwarts Arena outside the house and said with a serious expression, "I heard from Hermione that when the floating city ascended and the city teleported, both of you seemed to have felt the fluctuation of magic."
"Indeed, it was a kind of comfort that I've never experienced before …" Mr. Granger recalled the situation that day. "But after that brief moment of comfort, there was more panic. Those wizards who suddenly behaved strangely made us panic a little … Their reaction seemed to be more intense than ours …"
"It was a little scary … I thought they had gone crazy." Mrs. Granger also had a lingering fear. "But it was a very comfortable feeling."
"The power of the two energy nuclei was much higher than usual. The entire Hogwarts was covered in pure, high-concentration magic. This concentration is much higher than the magic that can damage electrical appliances in the academy … But because of this, I had an immature idea." Allen's tone became heavier. He slowly sorted out his thoughts and said, "If you can feel the magic, then I'm wondering if there's a way to make you use magic."
Realizing what Alan wanted to do, although she didn't know his method, Hermione, who was still wondering why he didn't mention the magic potion, felt her scalp go numb. It was as if she had been struck by lightning. Her heart was in a mess, and this explosive news filled her head.
"Allen, you thought of a way to make my parents, Muggle, use magic … Hiss …" Hermione, who was trembling, suddenly sat up straight. Anka, who was on top of her, shook and subconsciously pulled Hermione's hair with his claws, causing Hermione to hiss in pain. Hermione did not care about Anka's expression of dissatisfaction. She rubbed her head and said with a trembling voice, "Muggle can use magic … In that case, there's no barrier between the two worlds … In fact, they won't be two worlds in the future?"
Allen did not answer immediately. He stretched out his arm and let Anka, who was trying to regain his balance, fly back to his shoulder.
When he heard the conversation between Allen and his daughter, Mr. Granger held onto the sofa's armrest tightly to control his emotions. He did not let himself rush to ask questions. Mrs. Granger did not even notice that the pumpkin juice on her hand spilled on her white sweater.
For ordinary people like them, when they lived in the Muggle world, no one used magic. As high-ranking dentists, they had always lived a respectable life and were well-respected. Now that they were in the floating city, everything was new to them. However, the people around them could use magic to do all kinds of miraculous things, but they could not. In this new environment, although the people around them were very respectful, they understood that it was because of their relationship with their daughter and son-in-law, not because of themselves.
From the bottom of their hearts, wizards looked down on people like them who did not know how to use magic because they were called Muggle. When they knew that there was a chance for them to learn magic like the wizards, they could not help but lose their composure.
"Hermione, to let all Muggle be able to use magic... I can't do it." Allen saw that Hermione was too optimistic about the result, so he spread out his hands and explained patiently, "You know, for a Muggle like Filch, the magic in his body is not enough to make him lose control of himself once, so it is not enough for him to cast any spells. That's why no academy would send him an invitation letter when he was young... But, did Harry tell you that he secretly signed up for a magic class?"
Hermione nodded and added, "Yes, Allen. Harry said that he secretly saw his letter in his drawer. He did not want to be a Muggle, so he secretly signed up for a magic class from the Kwikspell company. Although it was obviously useless, he still could not use magic."
The Granger couple frowned and swallowed their words. They did not want to interrupt Allen and their daughter's train of thought. They did not want to disturb them and make them think of a way to become wizards.
"For Filch to be able to attend the class for such a long time, it means that he can more or less sense magic. Perhaps it's because the concentration of magic in Hogwarts was already enough for him to sense it... It's just that the magic in his body isn't enough for him to use it. I think he can sense it without the radiation from the nucleus..." Alan speculated and then looked at Hermione. "In the past, our Mage Tower used to grow magic herbs in the area of Thorn Mustard. It can be used to create a kind of potion... Hermione, you've drunk it yourself.
"Allen, you want to use the Mana Enhancing Potion? The Mana Enhancing Potion can greatly increase a wizard's magic... If you use it on the Muggles, maybe they can use it to cast spells? Although the effect may only allow the Muggles to become wizards who can barely control magic, right? Maybe they will be like Neville... Uh, sorry. " Hermione's brain was whirring. While she was deep in thought, Hermione picked up Alan's words and used her classmate's analogy. She then realized that she shouldn't have said such bad things about her classmate. She apologized and then fell into deep thought again. This kind of logic was easy to understand, but it made her even more confused. "Alan, what you said is very possible. But if that's the case, why hasn't any wizard thought of using a magic boosting potion on a squib before?
"Hermione, you're wrong... We are not the only ones who thought of this. The world is not short of smart people." Allen smiled and then changed the topic. "But I guess we are the only ones who can come up with such a good idea and have the capital to implement it. Even if someone who loved their children too much did this before, I don't think he would tell anyone about it..."
"Oh, right..." Hermione suddenly understood. "Even in the ancient times where the ingredients were easier to find and the formula was not lost, this kind of potion was too precious. Even if there was a chance to have it, the wizards would choose to drink it themselves or give it to the talented people in their family to support the family... Even if someone thought of it, no one would be so extravagant as to use this kind of potion as an experiment... Even if they were afraid that they would not have any descendants and so on, they would give it to their dumb descendants, but this kind of increase in magic power would probably not allow them to have the magic power of a normal wizard... Out of worry, they would not announce that their family had this kind of formula and ingredients, which would cause others to have evil intentions..."
Seeing that Hermione was able to figure out the problem so quickly, Alan nodded in satisfaction. "So, with the Arcane Garden and the seeds left behind from the ancient times … Among the forces that we know of, we are the only ones that have the possibility to experiment with this kind of thing … Even if there is a secret place within the family that has the means to create it, I don't think they would want to use it for this kind of experiment."
"But, Allen, my wife and I are not some Mana Enhancing Potion. We are just ordinary people." Mr. Granger clenched his hands when he heard this. After staying in the magic world for a while, he had already understood some basic things.
"Dad, it's not like that. Our Granger Family must have at least one of our ancestors who was a sorcerer. Even if I'm a Muggle sorcerer, strictly speaking, it's because I have a sorcerer ancestor's magic bloodline in my veins … Huh? Maybe you can understand it as after the gene manifested? That's how we gained the ability to cast spells. " Hermione's eyes sparkled. "Professor Slughorn once asked me if I was related to the founder of the Potion Maker Association, Hertok Daggeworth Granger. At that time, I naturally denied it. But in fact, Long Eyes helped me investigate... Dad, we are indeed related to them..."
"Hermione, then why didn't you tell us? Is this person on the floating city? "Mr. Granger was a little confused.
Mrs. Granger thought she knew the reason. "Hermione, is it because we are ordinary people that this gentleman doesn't want to contact us?"
"Oh, it's not like that. You know, we were fighting against some pure-bloods a while ago. Hermione is quite famous in the Umbrella..." Allen chose his words carefully. "Mrs. Granger... I think this Mr. Hertok Daggeworth Granger would be very happy to meet you. But Hermione must have thought that after this period of time, both sides can have a more peaceful contact..."
"Then, Allen... You said you could let us use magic..." Mrs. Granger's voice was laced with worry. "If Hermione's father has a distant relative in the wizarding world... But is there a wizard in my family too? Am I a Mana Enhancing Potion? "
Mr. Granger held his wife's hand. He understood that if he became a wizard and his wife was the only one who couldn't cast spells, she would be even more lonely in this city.
"Mom... You don't count. At the very least, you didn't manage to find anything with your eyes..." Hermione also reacted and shook her head. After she finished speaking, she recalled Alan's words and was shocked. Immediately, she turned her head to face Alan. Due to her speed, her thick hair started to sway. "Alan, what you said just now is to let them... You can even let the Muggles possess the ability to cast spells?!"
