Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 41 Divine Sword Without Shadow Curse

According to what Jerry learned from watching the movie, the somewhat childish nickname "Half-Blood Prince" was a name Snape gave himself when he was in school.

This sixth-grade potions textbook contains a wealth of Snape's insights into potions.

Of course, most of these potion-making tips will only be used when you're making potions in sixth grade. Even if you memorize them now, they won't be of much use. It's like the formulas you need in advanced calculus; even if you memorize them, it's hard to apply them flexibly to addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in elementary school.

Therefore, Jerry's current sixth-grade potion-making experience won't actually be of much help to his first-year potion-making studies.

However, what he valued was not Snape's potion-making knowledge, but rather the several spells that Snape had invented himself, which were recorded in the Half-Blood Prince's notebook.

Especially the most famous "Divine Edge Without Shadow" spell.

This is a spell that Jerry currently values ​​very much.

It's not that it's incredibly powerful; judging from the fact that Harry only seriously injured Malfoy when he used it on him in the movie, the destructive power of the Shadow Step isn't that strong.

Because spells like Binding Curse and Stunning Curse can directly control the target, and Killing Curse is certain to kill, while Divine Sharpness Curse only causes serious injury.

Of course, it's possible that Harry wasn't skilled enough at using it; if Snape had used it, it might have been even more destructive.

But don't forget, even a first or second-year wizard can freeze someone in place if they use "Petrify All".

However, even so, Jerry still highly values ​​the Divine Sword Shadowless Spell.

This spell has a very prominent advantage: it is invisible and undetectable when cast.

Normally, when a spell is cast, a beam of magical light shoots out, which is very conspicuous. For example, when the Killing Curse is cast, a green light flies towards you.

Although being hit by a bullet is certain death, if you react quickly enough and your prediction is accurate enough, there is still a chance to dodge it.

However, the release of the Divine Edge Shadowless Spell does not produce any magical light. Releasing a Divine Edge Shadowless Spell is like releasing an invisible blade. Unless you have an Iron Armor Spell for protection beforehand, it is difficult to detect.

This advantage may not be particularly obvious in the wizarding world.

While wizards possess excellent physical attributes, their speed and reaction abilities are not significantly different from those of normal humans. Therefore, they often cannot rely on their physical abilities to dodge magical attacks.

Shooting a spell with a wand is the same principle as shooting a bullet with a gun.

With the speed of magic and bullets, ordinary people simply cannot dodge them.

Even if someone manages to dodge successfully, it's not because their speed is faster than magic or bullets, but simply because they anticipated the attack trajectory by observing the opponent's arm movements and dodged in advance.

Few wizards can do this, so they usually choose not to dodge but to use magic defense, such as casting an Ironclad Spell or directly countering the energy wave.

However, in the Marvel universe, there are still quite a few people with superhuman physical abilities who can dodge bullets.

If a regular spell is fired, and the opponent has a strong physique, like a bullet, then the spell will have difficulty causing damage.

This is where the Divine Sharpness Shadowless Spell comes in handy. When released, it is invisible and intangible, and can cause damage to the opponent without their knowledge.

This was a spell he had planned from the beginning, a spell he was determined to obtain.

However, he hadn't had time to take the potions today because he was busy memorizing his textbooks. Now that he had basically memorized all the textbooks, he just took them since he was in potions class today.

With the Half-Blood Prince's notes in hand, Jerry first returned to the Slytherin common room, hid the book in his suitcase, and then went back to the Great Hall on the first floor for lunch.

He had no classes on Friday afternoon, so after lunch he returned to his dormitory.

The three young Malfoys were not in the dormitory. In fact, boys of that age rarely stayed in the dormitory during the day; most of them were engaged in castle exploration activities.

After resting for a while to recover the energy he had used to "refresh his mind" during Potions class that morning, he spent the afternoon alone in his dormitory studying the few self-created spells that Snape had recorded in his notebook.

The notebook recorded a total of six spells: Divine Sword Without Shadow Spell, Swift Healing Spell, Upside-Down Golden Bell Spell, Golden Bell to the Ground Spell, Ear-Blocking Spell, and Toenail Growth Spell.

After reading and memorizing all six spells, Jerry realized that the Divine Sword Shadowless Spell not only had the characteristics of being invisible and shadowless, but also had the property of cursing.

That is, the wound inflicted by the Divine Sharpness Curse will be cursed and unable to heal. Ordinary healing spells, potions, or Muggle medical methods will not work.

Unless its corresponding counter-curse is used, namely the Quick Healing Curse invented by Snape.

It was then that Jerry realized that not all spells could be broken using the universal antidote "Stop Spell".

Many special spells require knowing the corresponding counterspells in order to break their magical effects.

Just like if you are suspended in mid-air by the Upside-Down Bell Spell, you must use the Bell to Fall to the Ground Spell to remove it, or wait for the magical effect to disappear on its own.

Under the "refreshing" effect, Jerry's brain was working at lightning speed.

However, it's unclear whether it's because the spells Snape invented were too high-level, or because his current magical theory and knowledge were insufficient.

He spent an entire afternoon and still hadn't learned a single spell.

You know, it wasn't this difficult when we were learning those first-grade spells.

"Looks like I'll still have to go to the library!"

It would be quite difficult to quickly learn a spell of the level of Divine Edge Shadowless Spell based solely on a first-grade textbook and the content taught in class.

Therefore, he should learn from Hermione and read more related magic books in the library to increase his additional magical knowledge and improve his magical skills.

I checked the time; it was already past six.

Jerry, his mind still foggy, left the Slytherin common room and headed to the Great Hall for dinner.

After dinner, instead of chatting with the younger Slytherins in the Slytherin common room, he went straight to bed to recover from the aftereffects of the afternoon's invigorating activity.

It's impossible to get Jerry to spend a lot of time socializing.

His time is so precious, and he spends his little red stars every day, so of course he should use it to study magic and improve his strength.

In Slytherin, as long as you are good enough and can bring a lot of honor to Slytherin, you will be the most outstanding person in Slytherin.

Whether or not you socialize isn't that important anymore.

Moreover, as an idol for all future young wizards, it is also necessary to maintain a proper distance from fans and preserve a sense of mystery.

11 p.m.

After all the Slater wizards had fallen asleep, Jerry, having caught up on his sleep, got up, took his spellbook, and headed to the common room. He then activated his brain-boosting function again and entered study mode.
