Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 281 A blessing in disguise
In a slightly dim room in Fort Collins.

Moon was frowning, carefully examining the strange changes happening to his body.

The atmosphere in the room was tense and oppressive, with only Moon's heartbeat being particularly clear.

"Where is that strange place?"

Moon muttered to himself, his voice full of worry and confusion.

Recalling the scene at that time, after Moon absorbed all the curse energy, the strange willow tree disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Ye Qi also passed through the red moon and disappeared into the vast night.

Only this mysterious cursed energy remained, haunting him like a cancer.

In order to find out the truth of the matter, Moon took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and began to cast [Memory Recall].

He knew that this magic was the only one related to the curse.

Originally, Moon's [Memory Recall] could clearly reproduce everything related to him in the past day.

Just like last time at the Quidditch Games, he used this ability to successfully obtain a crucial list.

At that time, he used [Memory Recall], and everything that happened before his eyes could be seen accurately, just like a movie.

However, at this moment, the situation is completely different.

No matter how hard Moon concentrated, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but he could not recreate that strange scene.

That strange experience seemed to have been erased from his memory, as if it had never existed.

But Moon remembered very clearly the information about the origin of the curse in his mind, and this contradiction made him feel extremely weird.

“This is so weird~”

Moon couldn't help but whisper again.

Fearing that the cursed energy would bring him unexpected trouble, Moon locked himself in the room and studied for three days.

During these three days, papers were scattered all over the room and various magic props were placed in a mess.

Moon sometimes frowned in thought, and sometimes muttered to himself, trying to find a way to break the curse.

Gradually, Moon discovered that this curse was like an insurmountable wall that could not be removed at all.

During the Christmas holidays, Professor Snape gave him a precious notebook on dark magic.

It contains a lot of detailed information about curses.

Moon had studied it repeatedly, and his notes also mentioned several methods of removing the curse, such as casting the magic [Stop the Curse].

But when he chanted the spell, it had no effect.

He tried taking a herbal bath according to the recipe in the notes, but it didn't work, the curse still clung firmly to him.

There was also resistance from faith, and he meditated in the room, trying to expel the curse with his own willpower.

However, all this was in vain.

As for the more advanced method recorded in the notes, the potion with Phoenix Tears as the main ingredient, he was unable to make it now.

Maybe I can only wait until I get back to Hogwarts and think of a solution.

Although the curse is difficult to remove, unexpectedly, it brings great benefits to Moon.

The first magic that Moon created independently: [Memory Recall].

There were many limitations when it was used before.

Each time, it can only clearly present detailed events within one day, and the range is limited to the ten-meter range in front of Moon's eyes.

Now, [Memory Recall] can reproduce events within three days, and the process is extremely clear.

The scope of recurrence has increased significantly.

Today, Moon can recall all events within a radius of approximately thirty meters around him.

Many subtle movements and changes in expressions of others can be accurately captured.

Not only that, in terms of sensory aspects, [Memory Recall] has also been greatly improved.

The last time he got the professor list, Moon relied solely on his eyes.

This time when he used [Memory Recall], in addition to vision and hearing, he could even sense the smell in his memory.

For example, the disgusting stench of a rotting corpse.

There was also the remembered feeling of touch and the excruciating pain of falling from the broomstick. Thinking back on it now, it seemed as if it had really happened.

"Is this the magic that perfected my brain?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Moon's eyes.

He had always known the importance of this magic, but he didn't know how to improve it.

Now, this cursed energy accidentally entered Moon's mind, as if opening a door to a new world for him.

“Maybe we can continue research in these areas in the future.”

The cursed energy not only helped Moon perfect his memory magic, but also allowed him to determine the next direction for improving this magic.

After completing the breakthrough of [Memory Recall], Moon truly felt the huge benefits.

At this moment, if he closed his eyes slightly, he could completely reproduce the fierce war that took place three days ago in his mind.

The thrill of defeating the black-robed wizard.

The thrill of stunning a giant turtle.

The moment of life and death when killing the bloody monster.

This series of events flashed through his mind as clearly as a movie.

This powerful ability allows Moon to review the battle process in detail.

"The crucible should have been broken first that day."

Moon frowned, thinking seriously, as if he were once again on the battlefield;

"We should lure out the blood mist from the blood-colored monster in advance, so that the situation will be more favorable."

"There are still flaws in Lang's spell casting, it's not precise enough."

"Shaman Lu's [Beast Exorcism Spell] is a perfect match."

From these memories, Moon keenly realized that the problems he encountered when dealing with combat, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of his companions, these experiences would undoubtedly be invaluable to his future organization of combat and improvement of combat capabilities.

In addition, the upgrade of this magic made Moon's learning much easier.

When he encounters difficulties in learning, he only needs to use [Memory Recall] to recall his memory and study and practice repeatedly within three days.

Moreover, in this process, he can easily discover his weaknesses and make targeted supplements.

"It seems I need to find more opportunities to go to the library in the future."

The change in [Memory Recall] made Moon realize that his efficiency in learning magic would be greatly improved.

Moreover, the so-called forgetting curve of Muggles does not exist for him at all.

The power of the curse also significantly enhanced the power of Moon's other spells.

Especially [Divine Sharpness].

Perhaps it's because this spell and curse both belong to black magic.

Moon could clearly feel the changes in [Shadowless Divine Edge].

In order to test the power of this spell, Moon asked someone to find the scales of a lava-scaled sea serpent.

In the past, he could only barely lift the snake scales when using [Divine Edge Without Shadow], and the scales themselves remained intact.

But now, he just waved his wand lightly, and the scales were easily cut, and the cut surface was as smooth as a mirror.

Then he cast his spell towards the solid stone wall of the castle.

Previously, [Divine Edge Shadowless] could only cut a mark about 5 cm deep, but now the depth has tripled.

"No wonder the final [Divine Edge Shadowless] was able to penetrate the blood-colored monster's head."

Moon suddenly understood, and besides being amazed, he was also delighted.

The cursed energy brought him great benefits, but also came with considerable problems.

After three days of research, Moon now has a rough idea of ​​the specific content of the curse.

This curse is almost the same as the curse that the wizards of the Xingjin Island tribe were struck by.

[Learning any magical knowledge in this world will not increase your strength].

Moon, who possessed the Wizard Bar, had already known this.

The growth of a wizard's power is the accumulation of knowledge and experience.

Since this curse directly targets magical knowledge, it is no wonder that the tribal wizards have become depressed.

However, Moon was not too worried about this curse.

After all, his main source of magical knowledge is in Hogwarts in another world.

This curse won't do him much harm.

But in this world, combat experience is also an indispensable part of Moon's magical strength growth.

After the last attack and killing of Montoya, Moon's wizard strength has increased significantly, reaching two and a half bars.

But this time, after such a fierce battle, their strength should have been further improved.

However, due to the cursed energy, Moon's wizard bar is now only one and a half bars, which has been pressed down by one bar.

This strength should exclude the magical knowledge and experience of the current world.

Judging from his learning results at Hogwarts, Moon's current magical ability is only slightly stronger than Hermione's.

So this confirms the true content of the curse from another perspective.

Fortunately, Moon could feel that the curse only suppressed his strength and did not erase the benefits brought by these experiences.

So these powers are still there, we just need to get rid of the curse!
However, Moon also knew that it would not be easy to get rid of this curse.

Before that, learning and fighting must never stop.

Fortunately, Moon's strength was not weakened too much.

Because the power of the spells learned at Hogwarts remains the same.

Just as Moon was checking his own situation, footsteps were heard outside the room.

Great Witch Hailan and Zalan came towards his room with their spoils, looking excited.

"High Priest, this thing is too difficult to deal with."

The great wizard Hai Lan came in holding two soft leather bags, while Za Lan came in holding a whole pile of books.

"Are these the wings of the bloody monster?"

"Yes, I heard from Lang that monster wings can offset spell attacks. They must be a good thing, so I brought them for you."

After Great Wizard Hai Lan put the things down, he noticed that there was something wrong with Moon's expression.

"High Priest, are you injured?"

"Oh, it's okay. This injury doesn't affect me much."

Moon didn't tell anyone what was going on in the depths of his mind.

No one knows exactly what happened.

All we know is that it was the High Priest (the Son of God) who destroyed the final monster.

After hearing the high priest's words, he looked carefully at Moon's expression.

Only then did the great wizard Hai Lan confidently explain how he had taken off the monster's wings.

Looking at the bloody membrane in his hand, Moon knew that this was indeed a good thing.

[Shadowless Divine Sword] cannot penetrate it, and its defense and magic resistance are very good.

Moreover, this pair of wings has the magic of flying, which is very precious.

When Moon first got the pair of wings, his original intention was to make a magic robe to defend against possible future attacks.

But now it seems more suitable to be made into a cloak, perhaps even surpassing the flying cloak of the Star Tribe.

After putting away the wing materials, Moon looked curiously at the books that Zalan had brought.

"This is the Faithless's magical tome, as well as detailed information about the two islands."
