Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 49 Ancient Magic!

"So that's how it is. You can also see these blue lights..." Li Weide nodded after pondering. "What exactly is this blue light? What does it mean to be able to see it?"

"This means that you and I actually have the same qualities. Have you heard of...ancient magic?"

Li Weide couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Ancient magic?!"

Before traveling through time, Levid had come across the concept of ancient magic in a game called "Hogwarts Legacy".

That is a powerful magic... Only a few wizards can master and use it. It can be said that it is the protagonist's most powerful trump card in the game, that is, the ultimate move...

"It seems like you already know. Then I don't need to explain too much."

The weirdo didn't ask Li Weide how he knew that.

I just took a look at the table, and then there appeared an exquisite teapot and two teacups on the table.

The teapot floated up and automatically poured tea into two teacups. Then, one of the teacups floated in front of Li Weide.

Li Weide immediately smelled a strong aroma of black tea, but he did not touch the cup in front of him.

"Although all this is a dream, the feeling it gives you is real, so why don't you take a sip of tea before continuing to ask questions?"

Upon hearing this, Li Weide had no choice but to pick up the teacup and take a sip...the fragrance lingered between his teeth.

"Tea like this can only be found in dreams... Why do you also know nightmare magic? Are you from the Somleno family?" Livid asked again.

The weirdo shook his head and said, "I am not from the Somlenno family. I know this magic because I created it. However, decades ago, I did teach this magic to the Somlenno family."

"Impossible. The manuscript that records this magic has a history of at least hundreds of years. How could you have taught it to them decades ago?" Li Weide immediately found the loophole in his words.

"There's no other way. Who told you to choose black magic from hundreds of years ago? I had to use some means to make you feel that the manuscript has enough history..." The weirdo said helplessly.

Li Weide looked at the weirdo in surprise, "You were there when I was picking up the black magic?"

The weirdo sighed, "Ved, I understand you better than you think..."

"In fact, after I discovered that you possessed the same traits as me, I wanted to talk to you in your dream."

"It's a pity... you are too far away from me, beyond the maximum distance of this magic. Even I can only barely appear in front of you, and I can't make any sound."

"Until I found out that you accidentally inherited the tower of the Somlenno family, and happened to have a lighter with an ancient magical aura..."

Li Weide said: "So, you guided me to get the manuscript of nightmare magic, and then let me practice nightmare magic. Only if I also learned nightmare magic, you could make a sound in my dream? And then you used a lighter to lead me here?"

"Yes. I must find a way to get you to come to me." said the weirdo.

Li Weide was silent for a long time before he suddenly asked, "Those white mists that appeared in my dream...were they also created by you?"

"Yes..." The weirdo nodded.

"No wonder...it's also thanks to the reminder of the white mist that I was able to reach the threshold of nightmare magic so quickly." Li Weide said.

"Yes... because I don't have much time left, I can't wait for you to learn nightmare magic, so I had to help you. If I offend you, I apologize first..."

Li Weide stared at the weird man in front of him and said, "Now, who else possesses ancient magical qualities besides you and me?" "No one else, I have only found you so far." The weird man replied.

Li Weide took a deep breath. Could this weird guy be the protagonist of Hogwarts Legacy?
That's a ruthless guy who would kill seven or eight people on his way to class!
I didn't expect it to end up like this...

"Why can't you come to me directly, but instead take so much effort to contact me in a dream? Even now that I'm here, you still can't see me with your true face?" Li Weide asked in one breath.

"As I said at the beginning... I am a poor man enslaved by power. I have failed to live up to my teacher's expectations of me... and absorbed too much ancient magical power." The weirdo's tone was full of bitterness.

"When I discovered that there was too much ancient magic power in my body, it was too late. I paid the price for my arrogance... I could explode at any time, and the power of my explosion might be enough to destroy an entire city!"

"At that time, a friend of mine had made great achievements in alchemy... He made me a cloak that could temporarily freeze all the ancient magic power in my body and delay my death."

"But at the same time, my body was also frozen..."

"For safety reasons, my friends moved my body here, away from the crowd. Then they slowly tried to solve the problem with me... As a result, I have been staying here for decades."

"Until now, my friends haven't come to see me for a long time. Perhaps they have all passed away. I can no longer see them..."

"…I can't go out, and all my friends are dead, so I can only contact you through dreams."

Li Weide asked doubtfully: "Since you can't even come out, how did you find out that I have such a nature? How do you know so many things about me?"

The weirdo replied: "This has to do with nightmare magic... Do you know how I created this magic?"

Li Weide shook his head.

"You should be able to imagine how bored I am staying here alone, unable to move. At the same time, how terrible the feeling of helplessness is..." The weirdo's tone became agitated.

"Later, with the nightmare magic, I wasn't so bored, and I wasn't so desperate... As time went by, I found that my dream power could actually spread out, and then I could observe many, many things..."

Li Weide immediately understood that nightmare magic was created by him out of boredom.

For a person who cannot even move, a dream that can change at any time according to one's wishes is perfect.

Li Weide felt that perhaps it was because of the nightmare magic that this strange man was not driven crazy by the endless emptiness and loneliness.

No wonder his nightmare magic can reach this level...

Can you actually use the power of dreams to observe things outside? It's so terrifying...

"So your friends just left you here and left without caring about anything? Why didn't they leave someone to accompany you? They can take turns to accompany you for a while, right?" Li Weide asked doubtfully.

"I told them to leave... I'm a powder keg that can explode at any time, it's not safe for them to stay here..." The weirdo's tone was full of helplessness.

How could he want to face this situation alone? But...

"All of this is my own fault... I promised my teacher that I could control this power, but in the end..."

Li Weide asked: "Then how do you want me to save you?"

"You also have the ability to control ancient magic, so... absorb me! Absorb some of the ancient magic power from me! Only in this way can I regain my freedom!"
