Question #7

X (1330 – 1418) made it his life's work to understand the text of a mysterious twenty-one-page book he had purchased. On the way back, he reported that he met a sage, who identified X's book as being a copy of the original Book of Abraham also known as the Codex. With this knowledge, over the next few years X and his wife allegedly decoded enough of the book to successfully replicate its recipe for Y, producing first silver in 1382, and then gold.

X lived into his 80s, and in 1410 designed his own tombstone. After his death, a local criminal, who wished to acquire X's reputed gold, went to X's residence. Finding nothing he then gone to the gravesite and dug up the grave. Upon opening the coffin, he was disappointed to find an absence of gold, but shocked to find no trace of X’s corpse.

Some claim that it was just the grave of the wrong person who was not dead at the time, while still others claim that X faked his own death, and they cite as proof the fact that long after 1410, several books were published in X’s name. Id X and Y

Thanks for those words Jobin. Captain, I guess u r right!!

Cracked by Sandeep Hari fully!! Guess Captain missed the Y and Jobin did get X right.

X: Nicolas Flamel
Y: Philosopher's Stone
