Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 367 Revenge Notebook

No wizard doesn't want to possess powerful magical abilities.

Magic schools naturally hope to cultivate powerful wizards.

So after hearing Snape's words, Moon immediately thought of the young wizards at the school.

"Professor, why not promote it in schools?"

Just as Moon was about to ask a question, he suddenly stopped the conversation.

He suddenly realized that many wizards must know that black magic can enhance mental power.

Especially those who experienced the last Wizarding War, since they were more or less allowed to use the Unforgivable Curse.

The reason this method has not been widely adopted must be because it has even greater drawbacks.

"It seems you've already thought of that."

Snape walked over to Moon and patted the little lion on the shoulder.

"In fact, black magic is a true double-edged sword. It can cause the greatest damage to enemies, but at the same time it can unknowingly harm the wizard himself. In fact, many black wizards eventually lose themselves."

Snape's words were not alarmist at all.

His explanation was also based on his personal experience.

"Professor, how did you do that? Or did Voldemort also enhance his power to some extent with the help of dark magic?"

Moon could certainly understand the dangers of black magic.

However, he also has a strong need to improve his magical abilities.

Moon might have hesitated if no one had tried it before.

But now, two of the wizards he knows have proven that this method works.

Moreover, both of them are undoubtedly highly skilled in the British magical world.

So Moon wondered if he could control the negative effects of black magic while training his mental strength.

"This brings us back to the original question. What I can tell you is that you are very suitable for learning black magic, but how much you should practice is something you will have to figure out for yourself."

"Of course, based on my past experience, the greater the ability to resist the erosion of dark magic, the greater the improvement in mental strength, and vice versa."

Snape stopped talking at this point.

Having studied a great deal of dark magic, he knew very well that Moon's resistance to dark magic was the best he had ever seen.

That mysterious curse alone makes him more resistant to the corruption of dark magic than Voldemort.

But of course he wouldn't say those words out loud.

Otherwise, Snape was very worried that the little lion in front of him might try some more powerful dark magic.

Those are things that Moon can't access right now.

"Thank you for your reminder, Professor. I will slowly test my ability to resist dark magic."

As he spoke, Moon gripped the scroll tightly in his hand.

Although he had already learned a dark magic spell called "Shadowless Strike," he had never felt any signs of the dark magic corrupting him.

But now that he has the more powerful [Fiendfire Curse], Moon feels it's better to be on the safe side.

"I knew you wouldn't give up. If you encounter any difficulties, remember to come to me."

"Okay, Professor."

Moon solemnly agreed, then turned to leave.

But then Snape's voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"By the way, if you ever come across any rare potion ingredients in the future, remember to come find me. I'll definitely offer you a price that will satisfy you."

"Don't worry, Professor. Of course, if you need any materials, you can let me know in advance."

Moon said something, casually opened the office door, and quickly left the basement.

Snape, however, froze on the spot, his face filled with disbelief.

"Is this really true? I can have whatever I want?"

Unbeknownst to Moon, who was leaving his office, a single remark by him had plunged the Potions Professor of Hogwarts into self-doubt.

We walked out of the basement and through the auditorium.

Just as Moon was about to return to the common room, he saw a group of little witches bustling around in the first-floor corridor.

"Could there be some new progress in the spell experiment?"

Looking through the gaps in the crowd, Moon saw Lockhart sitting in the center and suddenly remembered that it was Wednesday.

This is also the date of the book signing event that Rohart announced at the opening dinner.

"No wonder he's a professor who knows how to do business."

Looking at Lockhart surrounded by little witches shouting wildly, Moon even felt a little envious.

Of course, what he envied was not the fans surrounding him, but Lockhart's ability to openly sell his products on campus.

If Moon had this privilege, he might be able to sell out of auxiliary rings and monoculars at Hogwarts.

Just as Moon was watching the lively crowd, Filch stood in the corner and waved to him.

Only after Moon approached did the castle steward cautiously begin to offer his advice.

“Mr. Scarlett, the so-called book signing event is a scam, you can’t believe it.”

Filch clearly considers Moon to be one of Lockhart's fans as well.

After seeing the look in Moon's eyes just now, he cautiously spoke up to remind him.

However, Filch had no idea that Moon had already seen through the new professor.

After all, he didn't think a professor with only one and a half bars of wizardry skills could absorb any advanced magical knowledge.

However, Moon was somewhat interested in scams and such.

After being questioned, Filch carefully explained.

“I heard from the staff at Flourish and Blotts that Lockhart’s books have been unsold for a while, and they were all smuggled to Hogwarts after being discounted.”

As Filch spoke, he secretly pointed to the towering wall of books behind Lockhart.

"Unsold inventory? That's unlikely."

Looking at those crazy book fans, Moon was a little confused for a moment.

"Actually, I don't know the truth of the matter. When I went to collect books, I could buy them back for half the original price."

"Price cut in half, yet still unsold!"

Moon looked at the little witches surrounding Rohart with pity.

Although he doesn't yet know the specifics of the scam.

But lies are destined to be exposed one day, and I wonder what kind of expressions these little wizards will have then.

"Don't worry, I won't fall for it."

After thanking Filch for the reminder, Moon quickly headed towards the common room.

Lockhart's affairs are none of my concern.

What Moon really needs to do now is go and settle accounts with the notebook.

Back in the lounge, Hermione was still helping with the registration for the young wizards.

Without disturbing anyone or even saying hello, Moon quickly returned to the empty dormitory.

As soon as Moon closed the door, he saw Bouncy sitting on the small box.

Since discussing the next steps yesterday, Lady Lorice has been searching for the gray rat Spotted in the castle.

Meanwhile, Raphael navigates through a maze of dark, complex pipes, searching for traces of rats.

Even other students' pets joined the search for Banban.

Perhaps sensing the urgency of the situation, the spots had disappeared for a whole day.

Because of the "flying car incident" and the "curse fulfilled," Ron still hasn't realized that his pet is missing.

"Chirp chirp~" (Bouncy has been keeping a close eye on it these past two days~)

Seeing Moon walk in with a bad expression, Beng Beng quickly stuffed a shiny gold coin into his bib.

Moon noticed Beng Beng's little action, but he didn't expose it.

"Thank you for your hard work, but we should adjust our attitude towards it from now on."

As he spoke, Moon put Bouncy on his shoulder and then unlocked the seven iron locks on the box one by one.

"Chirp?" (Did it make you angry?)
Noticing Moon's unfriendly gaze as he stared at the laptop, Bounce tugged at his earlobe and asked worriedly, "Chirp~" (Don't worry, I'll teach it a lesson for you.)
"Not yet, I've already come up with a whole plan to deal with it."

Under the curious gaze of Beng Beng, Moon quickly picked up his notebook and wrote a sentence.

Tell me your identity.

I am Tom, a pioneer in the magical world.

Although the notebook's previous owner's information was already known from the notebook's title page.

But Moon did not actually discuss this information with the notebook.

He had previously speculated that the notebook was related to Voldemort.

I never expected them to admit it so readily.

"Well, Tom, or Voldemort, I'm glad you didn't lie to me, which gives us a basis to continue our conversation."

Perhaps sensing that Moon had discovered his identity, the notebook remained unresponsive for a long time.

Having received no response, Moon casually wrote down another sentence.

"Thank you so much for what you taught me last time. May I thank you in person?"

"It's nothing, Mr. Scarlett. It's my pleasure to be of help."

"This doesn't sound like you, but it does mean you can't get out for the time being, right?"

After I wrote that sentence, the laptop remained unresponsive for a long time.

Moon didn't respond this time either, and casually flipped through the pages of his notebook.

They discovered that 49 sheets of parchment were sewn inside.

Seeing that the other party still hadn't reacted, Moon drew his wand, and a [Divine Sharpness Without Shadow] flashed by.

A yellowed parchment slipped directly out of the notebook.

No! What are you doing?

Looking at the newly appeared text on the notebook, Moon ignored it and casually cast another spell.

Another piece of parchment slipped out.

Stop! I mean no harm.

stab~
Another piece of parchment fell.

Moon Scarlett, you'll only earn my wrath by doing this.

stab~
Don't you know we'll meet again someday?

stab~
Then I will show you what an unforgivable curse truly is.

Did you hear me? I told you to stop.

Okay, tell me what I did wrong, and I'll change it, alright?

Moon didn't stop, and the notebook also noticed that the little wizard in front of him seemed unresponsive.

Even if he wanted to seduce Moon, he couldn't do it now.

That is, when Moon was about to cut off the eighth page of parchment.

The paper that had fallen to the ground vanished instantly.

The neatly cut hole on the notebook has now completely healed.

"It can actually be restored!"

Moon's actions just now were all testing the limits of the laptop.

Whether in terms of personality or magic, Moon now wants to figure out the specifics of his opponent.

After the notebook was completely repaired, Moon tried the [Cut Charm], [Smash Charm], [Blazing Flames], and [Thunder Explosion].
These spells have no effect on the notebook.

Even if a part of it is destroyed, the laptop can be restored to its original state in a very short time.

After seeing Moon stop, Bouncy took out the phoenix tail feather that Fox had given it from the small pocket on its belly.

Moon took the feather and just as he touched it into the parchment.

Suddenly, a sentence in a very urgent tone appeared on the notebook.

Stop! We can discuss all the issues.

Moon ignored him and gently poked the parchment with a phoenix tail feather.

The paper turned into black powder in an instant.

The situation is exactly the same as when the phoenix is ​​reborn from the ashes.

The powder was gently blown away, but the parchment did not return to the notebook.

Moon and Bouncy exchanged a glance.

"Chirp chirp~" (Turns out it's afraid of phoenix flames.)
"It shouldn't just be phoenix flames."

As Moon spoke, he recalled the details of the Fiendfyre spell that Snape had just written to him.

After three attempts, a sinister red flame suddenly burst forth from the tip of the staff.

The moment the parchment touched the paper, the flames instantly engulfed it.

The burning speed is even faster than the phoenix flames just now.

If Moon hadn't withdrawn his hand quickly enough, the Fiery Blaze might have actually burned him.

Seeing the parchment that had been burned to ashes, Beng Beng's eyes widened in surprise.

"Chirp~" (This fire is okay, but it's not good at all.)
As Beng Beng spoke, he gripped the phoenix feathers even tighter with his little paws.

Compared to the evil flames, Bouncy clearly prefers the Phoenix Fire.

"It is indeed evil, but we have also shown what it fears."

Moon has already tried all the magical flames he has, and only these two pose a threat to the laptop.

But that wasn't enough; he needed to let the other party know that he had the ability to destroy the notebook.

Only then can a more equal dialogue take place.

What are things made of paper afraid of?

"Besides fire, can water also work?"

He ignored the text flashing wildly on his laptop.

Moon casually took out the cauldron used in Potions class, put the notebook inside, and then...

A spell called "Clear Water Like a Spring" was cast.

Clear magical spring water immediately appeared in the crucible.

After 10 minutes, the laptop was taken out of the water, and it still didn't look like it had been soaked at all.

"Is water ineffective, or is it that, like fire, the magic in water is not powerful enough?"

Moon immediately pulled out the briefcase from under the bed.

After searching for a while, he took out all sorts of liquids that he had previously stuffed in.

The blood and venom of the molten-scaled sea serpent.

Crimson potion seized from the leader of the faithless.

The sap of the poisonous tree planted by the Lingshu tribe.

The venom of the scorpion-tailed beast collected by the Bailey family.

There was also black liquid sprayed out by the giant squid.

Try each of these liquids one by one.

Moon discovered that the greater the toxicity of the liquid, the more severe the contamination of the laptop.

What surprised him most was the black liquid sprayed out by the giant squid.

The notebook pages soaked in this liquid turned completely black.

There is no way to restore it, nor is there any way to remove the color.

Even the magical properties that should have originally existed on it were all eliminated.

Upon noticing this, Beng Beng jumped up happily.

Because it was this small bottle of black liquid that it gave to Moon.

In the small pocket on the front of Bounce's belly, there was a large bottle full.

"Chirp chirp~" (Now I have two things that can make it obey!)
