Hogwarts: My Spell Infinite Derivation

Chapter 54 This time I've learned my lesson, let's do a second deduction!

Noticing Charles's burning gaze, Dark's face revealed a confident expression.

"If I'm not mistaken, you really want to bite me right now."

"Just like last time, a part of my existence was completely annihilated."

"I have to admit, Charles, you truly possess unimaginable talent, even before it has been fully developed, it is still so extraordinary."

"But this time, it's different from last time."

As he spoke these words, Dark's tentacles suddenly surged forth like a tidal wave, tightly binding Ciel, and even Ciel's mouth was sealed shut by a tentacle like a rope.

Dark's main body, supported by its tentacles, slowly rose into the air, looking down at the bound Ciel.

"Isn't that surprising?"

"Last time I fled from you, so why am I so strong now, able to easily subdue you here? Aren't you curious?"

A growing fanaticism appeared on Dak's face.

"This is the world after sublimation."

"The human body has its limits, and so does a wizard's magic. How strong can it get? At most, it's like Dumbledore."

"But the Great Old Ones are beings without limits."

"After the ascension, in the very beginning, all my power was poured into the ascension process, and I was extremely weak, which is why I was easily defeated by you last time."

"But in R'lyeh, I can grow stronger and stronger simply by breathing."

"Perhaps you have some special talent, but in terms of the speed at which you become stronger, you will never be able to surpass me. The gap between us will only widen, Ciel, you cannot stand against me!"

He looked down at Ciel, his tentacles swaying.

"You painstakingly learned spells, only to have them surpassed by me in the blink of an eye. Watching me gradually approach the realm of the great and terrifying, doesn't that feel incredibly hopeless?"

"Come, Ciel, stop being so stubborn! Embrace glorious evolution, and let us together usher in an era of the Ancients' return!"

Then, Dark loosened the tentacle's grip on Ciel's mouth slightly.

"So, Ciel, have you figured it out?"

At this moment, Charles was biting his lip tightly, as if he was suppressing some impulse.

The greed and fervor in his eyes were almost overflowing!

When Dark asked him the question, Charles took a deep breath.

"I've figured it out."

"To be honest, since leaving R'lyeh last time, I've regretted it almost day and night, reflecting on the wrong decision I made."

"I have prayed countless times that God would give me a chance to make amends, and now that chance has finally come. I will never make the same mistake again."

Upon hearing Charles's words, Dark's face, which was covered in flesh, showed a look of relief.

"That's right, that's it! I knew it, my friend. You'd regret missing out on such a magnificent view. Join me in this glorious evolution..."

But at that moment, Ciel bit down on the tentacle that was dancing in front of him.

This action startled Dak, giving him a sense of foreboding.

"Wait, what are you doing? What do you want to do?!"

"Didn't you regret it?"

Charles muttered.

"Yes, I've been regretting it all along. I regret that I was too eager to eat your tentacles. I hadn't even eaten a few before I scared you away."

"I learned my lesson this time. I tried really hard to resist the urge to take a bite, until I got all these tentacles."

"As expected, self-discipline does pay off in the end."

"Now, my harvest time has finally arrived."

Charles took a bite out of the tentacle.

Deep Blue immediately converted it into a large number of deduction points.

For Dark, it was as if a part of him had vanished into thin air.

After his ascension, he can be said to be an immortal being, and no spell can destroy him.

This bizarre situation caused Dak to show shock and anger.

"I'm going to gag you!"

"Damn it, Charles, I'm going to take you to the temple, let you witness the greatness of the Ancients, and forcibly initiate your ascension!"

The tentacles suddenly exerted force, as if trying to bind Ciel once again.

But Charles just grinned.

"Shut my mouth?"

"That's really...something I'm looking forward to!"

The next moment, to Dark's horrified expression, Sharl activated the Animagus Transformation spell.

His body suddenly swelled, and his dragon form stretched out on the beach of R'lyeh, freeing the tentacles that had bound him.

Immediately afterwards, Charles opened his mouth and roared at Dark—the Roar of Power!

The powerful shockwave spread out, and Dark, who took the hit of the Power Roar almost face-to-face, shattered on the beach on the spot.

Tentacles snapped off one by one, and dripping green slime fell from the sky like rain.

Dark's shattered face was filled with panic, and two thin tentacles sprouted from it as it quickly disappeared from Charles's sight.

Charles' eyes lit up with anticipation, and he grinned broadly.

"Dark, my friend, you'll grow up again, won't you?"

"I remember clearly what you just told me: in R'lyeh, you can become stronger even by breathing."

"So you'll grow to this size again soon?"

"I will come back. I will definitely find a way back here, Dark. I will come back to find you!"

As the joyful shouts came, Sharl opened the gaping maw of his dragon body and devoured the tentacles of Dark scattered on the beach.

To Charles, these disgusting, wriggling creatures were nothing short of delicacies.

Each tentacle caused his deduction points to skyrocket!

100,000, 200,000, 300,000...

The tentacles that Dark scattered on the beach alone provided Shire with over a million deduction points!

Then, without stopping, Charles turned to gnaw on the black rocks on the beach, and opened his mouth to swallow the seawater that looked like black oil.

Points that require consuming large amounts of precious materials to obtain in the outside world are practically everywhere in R'lyeh.

With each bite, the deduction points skyrocketed!

However, Charles was still not satisfied with his eating speed.

He felt a little anxious.

"Not enough, not fast enough."

"The time allotted for buffets is limited. Last time they kicked me out after a short while, and this time it might be even faster."

"Who knows when we'll be able to enter R'lyeh again? This time, we're determined to make the most of it!"

With this in mind, Charles made a decision.

"The initial form of the Roar of Power is the eruption of a destructive shockwave."

"Could we reverse it, turning it into a reverse breath, so that we can inhale everything in front of us?"

"If that's the case, using the Dragon's Roar to devour these reefs and seawater would be far more efficient than it is now."

"Since we'll have to perform the Roar of Power a second time sooner or later anyway, let's just do it here."

The next moment, Charles said it in his mind.

"Deep Blue, the roar of secondary deduction power!"
