Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth.

Chapter 64: Book of Spells
Glorfindel is tall and straight, with a handsome face, beautiful and dazzling golden hair, bright and sharp eyes, a voice as pleasant as music, wisdom between his brows, and a noble and elegant temperament. He looks more like a knowledgeable elf sage than a warrior.

As a high elf born in the Age of the Two Trees, bathed in the glory of the Two Trees, he exudes an angelic holy light.

He lived in seclusion in a secluded valley and seldom came out to meet guests. He mostly stayed in the library or his own palace.

Now, when he heard that the dagger he had lost had reappeared, the elf came out for once.

"Elrond."

"Mithrandir, long time no see."

Glorfindel greeted Elrond and Gandalf gracefully, his voice beautiful and melodious.

"Glorfindel, my friend, you shine as brightly as ever." Gandalf also greeted him happily, obviously familiar with the Lord of the Golden Flower.

Everyone was shocked by the brilliance of the reborn elf, even the dwarves fell silent.

Dewi also looked at Glorfindel in amazement.

Not much is said about this elf in the original novel, but he was reborn after his glorious death in the First Age. His strength and ability are equal to those of the Maia, making him arguably one of the most powerful elves in Middle-earth.

If he, like Gandalf and other Maiar, had not been forbidden to use powerful strength and could only assist the forces of Middle-earth to fight against Sauron's dark forces, Sauron would probably not have been able to jump around for so long.

After exchanging greetings with Gandalf, Glorfindel turned his gaze to Bilbo, mainly to the dagger in his hand.

"May I see it?"

"Uh... of course!" Bilbo handed over the dagger somewhat at a loss.

Glorfindel took the dagger, his eyes filled with memories and sadness.

"I thought it had fallen into the abyss along with the Balrog. I never thought I would see it again one day."

Seeing the uneasy Hobbit in front of him, a smile flashed in his eyes, and in the other's surprised expression, he returned the dagger.

"I have lost this dagger for countless years. Now that you have found it, it means that we are destined to be together. I hope it will be of use to you."

"Thank you." Bilbo breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought the dagger would be returned to its original owner, but he didn't expect the original owner to have no intention of taking it back.

The dagger was a gift from Dui, and he didn't want to lose it.

Glorfindel did not stay long at the banquet. After seeing the dagger he once used to see, he said goodbye and left.

Bilbo became the protagonist of the party and attracted everyone's attention.

Especially the dagger in his hand, which has a record of killing a fire demon and is also the weapon of the famous Golden Flower Lord Glorfindel.

Everyone is very envious and jealous of the possession of such a magical weapon.

Dewi was also happy for Bilbo.

But what made him even happier was that his system finally responded.

[Hogwarts Sign-in System: Locating Rivendell, do you want to sign in?]

"Sign in." Dui said silently in his heart without any expression.

[Successful sign-in, congratulations on receiving the first edition of "Book of Spells"! ]

A thick spell book appeared before his eyes that only he could see.

The Book of Spells is another book of spells written by Miranda Goshawk, the author of the Hogwarts Charms textbook, The Standard Book of Spells series.

Or it could be considered the precursor to the Standard Spells series. The Book of Spells records the vast majority of spells in the magical world, making it a veritable encyclopedia of spells.

Not only are there all the spells available in the market in the wizarding world, but there are also some evil curses.

This spell book was banned by the Ministry of Magic at the beginning of its publication, as the Ministry believed that many of the spells in the book were dangerous and unsuitable for publication.

Therefore, at the request of the Ministry of Magic, all the curses and some of the most offensive and destructive spells were deleted from the book, which eventually led to the creation of the "Book of Spells", which has been translated into 72 languages ​​around the world. It was then re-edited by Miranda Goshawk and divided into the "Standard Spells" series for Hogwarts grades one to seven.

Previously, Dui was somewhat limited when fighting enemies because the spells he mastered were more defensive in nature, and he could not kill the enemy with one blow.

Now that he had obtained the "Book of Spells", it felt like a blessing from heaven, instantly fulfilling what he needed.

Even for a long time afterwards, he didn't have to worry about running out of spells.

If he wasn't still at the banquet, he would have wanted to find a quiet place to study the contents of the spell book right away.

At this moment in the banquet, the dwarves, after drinking too much, completely exposed their true nature.

The dwarves disliked the soothing music played by the elves, saying it sounded like funeral music, so Bofur stood on the table and sang the dwarven songs loudly.

The other dwarves also clapped and cheered, and they banged various tableware, making all kinds of noises, and even picked up food and threw it at each other.

The sight of the group of demons dancing wildly made the surrounding elves look at each other in bewilderment.

Elrond, who was at the head of the group, frowned slightly, but his good upbringing prevented him from saying anything.

But Gandalf, who had just praised the dwarves for being descendants of Durin and for being noble, well-mannered and exceptionally well-educated, was embarrassed and looked as if he wished he didn't know them.

Dui was speechless at this moment. He just wanted to end the banquet quickly and learn the contents of the spell book as soon as possible before leaving the valley to make himself stronger.

After the feast, Gandalf and Elrond had something to discuss.

The dwarves got drunk and stayed in the banquet hall to entertain themselves.

Bilbo wanted to visit Rivendell.

Dui found a quiet terrace and seemed to be relaxing, but his eyes and attention were focused on the book of spells in front of him.

There are many spells in the book. In addition to basic and practical spells, advanced spells such as Exocamp and Untraceable Extension are also included.

What Dui was most concerned about was naturally the offensive spells and curses that were deliberately deleted by the Ministry of Magic.

Among offensive spells, Thunderbolt Explosion is a very powerful spell.

It can cause the cursed object to explode violently with a force equivalent to more than ten kilograms of TNT.

Peter Pettigrew in Harry Potter used this spell to blow up an entire street in order to escape from Sirius Black.

There are also the Flying Sand and Rock Curse, the Crushing Curse, the Ten Thousand Arrows Curse, etc., which are all powerful offensive spells.

As for evil curses, from the small ones like the stinging curse, crazy nail growth curse, and bone swelling curse to the big ones like the gut-ripping curse and the extraction curse, they all belong to the category of black magic. If used properly, they can also produce different effects.

Dewy first picked out a spell that interested him: the Patronus Charm.

The Patronus Charm is a high-level white magic. The spell is "Expediate Patronus". It can summon a physical animal patronus and can restrain dark creatures such as Voldemort and Dementors.

There were no creatures like voldebats or dementors in Middle-earth, but the wights and the Ringwraiths he had encountered before were all dark creatures.

Dark creatures are naturally incompatible with white magic. Dui believes that if he masters the Patronus Charm, it will be much easier to deal with dark creatures like wights when he encounters them.
