The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

"That magic can be used to perform many large-scale spells, but it cannot be absorbed into a wizard's body."

Scott stared with shining eyes at the magical orbs floating around him.

"But the magic here is!"

“That’s right.” Ravenclaw looked at him encouragingly. “That might be the key to stopping Salazar.”

Upon hearing this, Scott finally couldn't help but grin.

“Mentor, you’re right. The gains I made on this adventure are unparalleled!”

"Please guide me and tell me what I should do!"

Ravenclaw in the painting also looks very interested.

"Of course, my apprentice, I am very happy that, so many years after my passing, I can still try out those techniques that have been theoretically lost for so long!"

As she spoke, she completely abandoned her usual aloofness and seemed even more excited than Scott.

"First, oh, let me think, yes, collect magic power, gather it together, and form the legendary magic crystal."

"Magic crystal?"

Scott felt things were getting more and more surreal.

"Yes, magic crystals are crystals formed by the compression of a large amount of magic power. This is a technology that has long been abandoned."

Ravenclaw said it with certainty.

"The primary condition for making magic crystals is to find pure magic power that contains no other properties."

"I wouldn't have known this if I hadn't read through all the books in my family's collection."

"Oh, thank goodness, I remember."

“Scott, my apprentice, this is a difficult task. You must master a set of very difficult rune circuits in a short period of time.”

"The runes that make up this set of magic circuits are the original runes."

After she finished speaking, her figure disappeared, leaving behind a set of seemingly simple magic runes on the canvas.

How simple is it?

This set of rune circuits consists of fourteen runes in total, but these fourteen runes are actually all duplicates of two runes.

But since his Ravenclaw mentor said it would be difficult to master it completely, Scott had no doubt about its difficulty.

He rode steadily on the flying broom, letting Rimbaud hold onto the picture frame and fly up. Then he took out his notebook and pen and carefully recorded the magic rune circuits in the notebook.

Not long after he finished taking notes, his Ravenclaw tutor reappeared.

"It seems you've already taken notes."

She glanced at the notebook in Scott's hand.

"That's right, let's start practicing now!"

Scott nodded, took out a piece of parchment paper and placed it on the notebook, then took out an ink bottle and a quill pen.

He cast a spell, making the ink bottle and quill float around him, then cut his finger and mixed some of his blood into the ink bottle.

Using this ink to draw spell circuits is the most effective and concise method he has summarized for practicing spell circuits.

With time running out, Scott didn't care how awkward his posture was on the flying broomstick and quickly started practicing.

His Ravenclaw instructor, who was watching him practice, would occasionally offer reminders.

"This stroke is wrong, start over!"

"The transitions are not smooth; it needs to be done in one continuous motion!"

"Pay attention to the balance of power!"

"coherent!"

"Remember! They are a whole!"

failure!

Repeated failures!

As Ravenclaw said, this rune circuit looks incredibly simple, but it is more difficult to implement than any rune circuit Scott has ever used before.

Scott used up sheet after sheet of parchment, but he still couldn't figure out the workings of this magic rune circuit.

"Keep your mind calm!"

His Ravenclaw tutor reminded him.

"Yes."

Scott took a few deep breaths to calm his growing agitation and continued sketching the magic rune circuit.

"First, understand the overall structure!"

"Great, you've improved a lot!"

"Now you should have figured it out."

"very good."

"This time it's basically a success!"

"Keep practicing!"

After drawing several more, Scott finally had a piece that his Ravenclaw tutors would rate as acceptable.

"Activation attempt".

"Yes."

Scott channeled magic into the parchment, activating the spell circuit.

The black ink on the parchment flashed and instantly turned into a faintly glowing blue.

Scott brought the parchment close to a nearby glowing magic.

Soon, wispy magic separated out and was absorbed by the magic circuits on the parchment.

The magic runes grew brighter and brighter until the entire parchment suddenly cracked open.

"Yes, it works."

"The Ravenclaw instructor said happily."

"Next, you need to use your magic to draw this set of magic runes in one go."

Scott nodded, put down his quill, picked up his wand, and began to try.

He raised his wand and focused.

The tip of the wand emitted glowing golden lines that formed runes in the air. The runes connected and combined, eventually converging together before collapsing.

“Of course, drawing rune circuits out of thin air using magic is the most advanced technique,” ​​the Ravenclaw instructor encouraged. “Try again!”

Scott focused and tried again.

But it failed again.

In fact, this wasn't the first time Scott had attempted to draw magical runes out of thin air without any physical medium.

His Dark Illusion technique involves using invisible magic to draw magical circuits under his feet, catching enemies off guard and causing them to fall victim to his attacks.

However, the difficulty of the magic circuits that constitute the dark illusion is completely different from what he is doing now.

The key point is that the magic rune circuits used to create this magic crystal are very strange, probably because they use the original runes, and his previous experience is completely useless.

But Scott couldn't give up at this point.

Super Magic Promotion.

A great opportunity to enhance our strength.

The key to stopping Salazar Slytherin.

These are all reasons why he must succeed.

After several failures, Scott took a break and closed his eyes to clear his mind of the jumbled thoughts.

"Magic is the power of belief."

Dumbledore's maxim echoed in my mind once again.

When he opened his eyes, this time his mind was filled only with the absolute belief that he had to succeed.

This time, he no longer hesitated or considered any way out, and mobilized all the magic power in his body to unleash his full power.

The next moment, he roared.

"Come out!"

The tip of the wand shone with a dazzling golden light, like a sun illuminating this cool "starry sky".

The golden light spread rapidly, quickly illuminating the entire "starry sky".

One after another, enormous runes took shape in the void, connecting with each other and converging to form a cohesive whole.

"Success!"

Scott watched as the vast, gigantic rune circuit, which almost occupied the entire "starry sky," was fully formed.

Although he experienced the emptiness and exhaustion of having all his magic drained again after a long time, he couldn't help but grin and laugh.

"Yes, you succeeded!"

The Ravenclaw tutor sounded very happy as well.

"Now, it's time to reap the rewards!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the giant magic circuit began to operate.

Its color changed from gold to pure blue, and it began to slowly rotate.

Slowly, the glowing magic orbs floating in the void began to move.

The magic spheres above and below the magic rune circuit were all attracted by the rotating magic rune circuit and slowly approached its center.

As time passed, more and more magic clusters gathered at the center of the magic rune circuit pattern.
