Dumbledore did not regret rejecting Lynn's request to learn the Fire Curse, but Lynn's words that day still moved him.
Yes, they couldn't keep waiting until tragedy struck and then regret it!
Since Lynn needed a sword to kill powerful enemies, why not give it to him?!
Moreover, powerful swords have never been exclusive to dark magic!
"Professor, I'm curious about the kind of magic you're talking about that is not weaker than Fiendfyre and can destroy Horcruxes," Lynn asked seriously.
It's not bad to learn more useful magic, especially magic taught by Dumbledore himself. How could its power be lacking?
Dumbledore calmly replied, "The magic I want to teach you is also a type of fire magic that suits your talent. It's called Eternal Fire."
Upon hearing this, Lynn was surprised.
Eternal Fire, also known as the Immortal Fire, is different from Fiendfyre, which devours everything and turns it into its own fuel. Eternal Fire requires no fuel and can burn forever.
The naturally occurring temperature of Eternal Fire is not higher than that of ordinary flames. Its only function is to illuminate a corner of the world forever and never go out.
However, the Eternal Fire conjured by a wizard is different. The temperature of the Eternal Fire released by a wizard will change according to the magical power injected by the wizard, and the temperature can reach extremes—enough to destroy a Horcrux!
In this case, the Eternal Fire, when it reaches its extreme temperature, will burn eternally like other Immortal Fires.
The Eternal Fire, the eternal flame, is that powerful.
Of course, Dumbledore was willing to teach Lynn the Eternal Fire not because of its strength, but because it was not dark magic—it was real white magic.
At this point, some might wonder, since Eternal Fire has such advantages, it must have its own flaws. After all, nothing is perfect, and Eternal Fire is no exception.
Without a doubt, Eternal Fire also has its own defects: it cannot be controlled by wizards.
Even if it's a Fiendfyre, which can turn against its master, once released, a wizard with sufficient power can still suppress and control it.
But Eternal Fire is different—once released, it will burn in place forever, no matter how the wizard tries to control it; it won't move or extinguish.
The only way for a wizard to remove Eternal Fire is to use a special box refined by alchemists. This special box can "deceive" the Eternal Fire into thinking that the box is its origin, making it stay inside the box forever, allowing the wizard to take it with them.
Dumbledore wanted to teach Lynn Eternal Fire because he wanted to test how strong Lynn's affinity with flames was and whether he could control the components of Eternal Fire—a fire that the world couldn't control.
After hearing the term Eternal Fire, Lynn said without hesitation, "Please teach me! Please!"
You know, Eternal Fire can not only be used as a powerful flame, but it can also serve as an alternative and infinite energy source!
The eternally burning flame means it can provide a continuous flow of energy. This miraculous type of flame can only exist in this magical world.
Dumbledore raised his wand, and after a few breaths, a brilliant golden flame appeared at the tip of his wand.
This brilliant golden flame was none other than the rumored Eternal Fire!
Dumbledore raised his left hand and gently held the ball of Eternal Fire in his palm.
When Dumbledore raised his hand, an excited Lynn saw hundreds of alchemical formations flashing in his palm.
Obviously, the reason Dumbledore could hold Eternal Fire, which couldn't be controlled, was because he instantly imprinted the alchemy circle necessary for creating a special box in his palm. This gave his palm the ability to transfer Eternal Fire!
Lynn was not surprised by this. After all, Dumbledore was an expert alchemist.
Don't forget, in the Chocolate Frog card registry about Dumbledore, it clearly states that Dumbledore collaborated with Nicolas Flamel in alchemy!
Being able to work in alchemy with Nicolas Flamel, known as the most powerful alchemist in the world, meant that Dumbledore's alchemy skills weren't second in the world, but at least they were in the top three.
"This is Eternal Fire," said Dumbledore softly. "Try to feel it."
With that, Dumbledore handed the Eternal Fire he held in his hand to Lynn.
Dumbledore didn't inject much magical power when casting the Eternal Fire, so its temperature was equivalent to the temperature of the flame summoned by the Fire Curse.
Even if Lynn's affinity for flames didn't have any effect, this Eternal Fire wouldn't harm him.
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Lynn nodded slightly. He stepped forward and extended his hand to take the Eternal Fire from Dumbledore's left palm.
As soon as he approached the ball of Eternal Fire, Lynn felt a warm sensation spreading throughout his body. The Eternal Fire was sending a gentle warmth to him, which made Lynn unconsciously feel the urge to draw closer to it.
Soon, Lynn's hands had completely penetrated the ball of Eternal Fire.
The golden Eternal Fire gently licked the palm of Lynn's hand, as if a newborn baby was transmitting its attachment to its mother.
Lynn slowly raised his hands, and in that moment, a miracle happened.
The ball of Eternal Fire, which was supposed to be uncontrollable by any wizard, was actually lifted by Lynn's hands, cupped in a bowl shape, and slowly raised out of Dumbledore's palm!
You see, at this moment, Lynn did not use the alchemical circle to "deceive" the Eternal Fire!
"I didn't expect your affinity for flames to allow you to control even something like Eternal Fire!" Dumbledore sighed.
Lynn couldn't stop holding the Eternal Fire in his hands. Although he hadn't yet learned how to release Eternal Fire, the Eternal Fire in his palm was already transmitting a message to him.
That is, he could use his own will to control the temperature of the Eternal Fire in his hand, making it change or even extinguish the eternal fire.
