Hogwarts: Starting with full Unforgivable Curses

Chapter 195 Am I now immortal?

Dylan looked down at Pippi, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed.

At this moment, the creature's limbs were spread wide, and its translucent body was constantly emitting aggrieved black smoke.

A pair of empty eyes stared blankly at the dark sky.

— He looked like he had just been ravaged.

Dylan snorted coldly.

His gaze shifted and landed on the system panel.

------

[Achievement]: Control over non-existence!
[Description]: Congratulations on successfully controlling the three major chaotic-type workers in the magic world!

[Requirement for activation]: Make the three non-existent entities submit to you.

[Achievement Rewards]: Abilities - Dementor Power, Peeves Power, Boggart Power.

------

Upon seeing the system's prompt, Dylan raised an eyebrow.

"The three non-existent forces?"

Moreover, they are all features.

Dylan couldn't help but become interested.

Could the system possibly allow him to switch between Dementors, Boggarts, and Peeves?
With that in mind, Dylan immediately extracted the achievement reward.

In a daze, Dylan felt as if something had changed about him.

Especially the characteristic he already possessed—the Dementor's Kiss.

We are now in sync with this change!

Soon, Dylan opened his eyes.

He then adapted to the abilities related to those three characteristics.

Dylan curled his lip in disdain.

"I thought it would turn me into a Dementor or a Boggart, but it turns out I just have one of these three non-existent abilities."

The so-called Dementor power originally only allowed Dylan to absorb the positive emotions of other people, just like a Dementor.

However, he already possessed the Dementor's Kiss.

Therefore, after combining with this characteristic.

The power of the Dementors and the kiss of the Dementors gave rise to even greater abilities.

Dylan can use the Dementor's Kiss to directly absorb the target's positive emotions and transform them into his own magic.

Moreover, he can also absorb negative feelings of despair.

Just as positive emotions can be transformed into magic.

Despair can also be transformed into Dylan's vitality.

This vitality, acting on Dylan, not only makes him more energetic, but also helps his wounds heal quickly.

Moreover, vitality represents all the characteristics the body needs, whether it is speed, endurance or strength, and will be greatly enhanced as a result.

"Maybe I won't even need the Unforgivable Curse anymore. I can just throw a punch and kill someone."

Dylan smacked his lips.

The Dementors' power is not limited to this.

Not only has Dylan's control over the Dementor's Kiss increased dramatically, but it is now almost indistinguishable from that of a real Dementor.

He can now even absorb real souls.

When the soul is digested by him.

His soul strength will also increase.

More importantly.

—His lifespan will actually be extended as a result!
This discovery surprised Dylan, yet it also felt somewhat reasonable.

"So... I don't need to research any immortality spells at all; I'm already practically immortal?"

Dylan tilted his head.

One of the reasons he studied magic before was that he wanted to create an alchemical artifact that was safer, more efficient, and without strong side effects than the Philosopher's Stone, which would enable him to live forever.

But the achievement system has now directly extinguished his motivation.

What else is there to research?
Forget about immortality, let's just grant eternal life!

As long as there is a human soul that he can absorb.

He won't die because of this!

Doesn't this mean that as long as humanity exists and hasn't been extinct, he can live indefinitely?

However, it's hard to say how long humans will exist.

Who knows, the universe might just explode one day?

It's impossible to say for sure whoever comes.

However, the probability of a cosmic explosion is still relatively small.

At least the probability of humans causing their own extinction is not as high.

However, Dylan discovered something else.

He draws upon the extended lifespan granted by the soul.

It is not limited to humans.

In other words, he wants to extract human souls and eat them, and that's fine.

He could extract and devour the souls of other beings if he wanted.

"Combined with my pet space suitcase... I feel like I've achieved immortality!"

As for this feeling—Dylan felt nothing at all.

Just like the idea of ​​never being able to live forever, it wasn't very appealing to him.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

For Dylan, what always attracts him is the fun of magic, and the process of studying magic, whether it's gaining new knowledge or creating knowledge and magic.

This is very interesting.

For Dylan, the ability to gain immortality directly meant that he would have the opportunity to study magic permanently.

Smacking his lips, Dylan didn't dwell on that, but instead thought of something else.

"Even if a Dementor absorbs the souls of others, it cannot be certain whether it has digested them or left the souls in its own body to maintain its existence in the world."

But now he can directly absorb souls to enhance his soul strength and extend his lifespan.

Moreover, he can absorb not only positive emotions.

It can even absorb negative emotions.

This actually goes beyond Dylan's understanding of the Dementors' abilities. In his view, Dementors simply absorb happy memories and joyful emotions, eventually devouring a person's soul.

But he can not only do that, he can do things that Dementors can do.

Dylan stroked his chin: "That's not right either. If a Dementor absorbs a person's soul, and that person becomes a walking corpse without a soul, then forget about positive emotions, wouldn't even negative emotions disappear along with it?"

Dylan realized that while Dementors absorbed other people's positive emotions, they also made them feel and recall the pain they had experienced.

But once the other person's soul is devoured, will these negative emotions completely overwhelm them, or will they be taken away by the Dementor along with them?

Dylan thinks it should be the latter.

"So it's not that my abilities have evolved, but that I have completely mastered the power of the Dementors."

Dylan thought of starting with Ember Spirit and then moving on to Dementor's Kiss.

Now, he possesses the full power of a Dementor...

"I feel like I'm running for my life on a crooked road."

Now he's become a real, living Dementor, hasn't he?

Take a deep breath.

Dylan began to sense the power of Boggart and Peeves again.

These two non-existent entities are inferior to Dementors.

So Dylan didn't have high expectations when he experienced it, but the final result still surprised him.

"Fear of metamorphosis?"

Dylan's eyes widened slightly.

Just like a real Boggart. By utilizing the Boggart's power, he was able to sense the target's fear, just like a Boggart, and transform into the form the target feared!
"I was just saying that the Borgatt's transformations were even more exaggerated than the Animagus's, and now I've mastered that ability??"

Dylan smacked his lips again.

Upon closer inspection, Dylan was somewhat disappointed.

"Unfortunately, although I can perform fear transformations, like the Boggart, I cannot use the transformed form to create destruction that can affect reality."

This is where it differs fundamentally from the Animagus.

Animagus transforms him into a true Norwegian spineback dragon and grants him the ability to breathe fire.

This is something that can actually cause damage to the enemy.

Moreover, with the help of the fire dragon's wings, he is also able to perform high-intensity, long-distance flights.

However, Boggart's transformations need to be confined to the vicinity of the target.

As long as it exceeds a certain distance and range.

Then Dylan will revert to his original form.

Moreover, he cannot cause any harm by using the transformed form, nor can he possess the special power of the transformed form.

For example, if he were to transform into a snake monster, he wouldn't be like a real snake monster, capable of killing people with his gaze.

It's only good for making a show of things and scaring others.

"But even this ability to transform at will is powerful enough."

However, to Dylan's dismay once again, the three non-existent powers he acquired were merely characteristics, not spells.

So this means that he can only possess this ability. Perhaps he can also conduct research based on this and try to decipher the principles and key points of these abilities.

However, unlike the max-level spells he possesses, he cannot directly gain knowledge about the various levels of spells that he can access.

"If Boggart's transformation is a spell, I think my transformation spell would be at its maximum level."

Dylan sighed slightly.

Yes, that's right, his Transfiguration Charm is still at level nine.

One level away from the maximum level.

But this level has been holding him back for a long time.

"Perhaps I should set aside some time to continue studying the Transfiguration Charm, but now that I have mastered the Boggart's Transfiguration power—although it is only Fear Transfiguration—it can still provide me with some new guidance and assistance."

Dylan shook his head.

There's no way around it; the scope of Transfiguration is just too vast.

Therefore, even though the Transfiguration Charm he possessed was just a simple incantation, reaching the maximum level was extremely difficult.

at the same time.

Seven figures draped in tattered gray robes slowly descended from the sky.

Their long robes, carrying a chilling aura, swept across the rocks, stimulating even the lifeless Pippi, who lay flat on the ground, to its senses.

However, the Dementors had absolutely no intention of attacking Peeves.

As the putrid stench spread, so did the foul-smelling mist.

The seven Dementors, their bodies hunched over, slowly gathered around the trembling Peeves.

Although the Dementors didn't intend to attack Peeves, Peeves' translucent body still trembled involuntarily upon seeing these terrifying creatures surrounding him.

Seeing this, the Dementors stopped a few steps away from Peeves.

There was no further progress.

Pipi Ghost was taken aback.

It felt as if it saw pity in the eyes of these Dementors.

Huh?!

blinked.

Even the chill in the surrounding air no longer felt so biting; instead, it was replaced by a bittersweet feeling of shared suffering and resonance.

Is it possible...

Recalling how this young human wizard had suddenly transformed into a monster even more terrifying than a Dementor.

These Dementors seemed to be terrified and fled in all directions...

and so--

This human wizard even managed to subdue these Dementors?

"Gudu"

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva that wasn't even there.

Pipi relaxed slightly and then looked at Dylan.

The seven Dementors also looked at their "master," who could transform into a multi-eyed monster at the slightest provocation.

Seeing that the other was seemingly lost in thought, shaking its head, Little A, one of the seven Dementors, waved to Peeves, signaling it to lean back.

Immediately afterwards, the seven Dementors, along with Peeves, hid further away from Dylan.

But they weren't too far apart.

Instead, it was always kept at a level where Dylan could see them and summon them back at any time.

Dylan was already experiencing Peeves' abilities.

"As expected, it is the most useless piece of trash among the three non-existent beings."

Dylan curled his lip.

Pee-Pee's abilities are utterly useless to him.

— Manipulating objects.

That is, it can move and manipulate small objects.

Peeves often uses this ability to set up prank scenes.

Or they might throw things everywhere, or float in the air to scare people.

To Dylan, this ability was as pointless as taking off your pants to fart.

It was a redundant and useless effort.

—His levitation spell proficiency has reached the maximum level.

The only thing worth praising.

Even if Dylan doesn't use a wand, or even magic.

It can also control other objects.

This ability is like a part of his body, as easy as using an arm.

The other two non-existent forces are the same.

"Tsk, maybe I'll be able to use it when I'm completely broke and have no magic left."

Dylan shook his head.

At this point, Dylan had already experienced all three non-existent forces.

The most useful one, of course, is the power of the Dementors.

It is not only useful, but extremely useful, very useful.

It was all thanks to the power of a Dementor.

He not only upgraded his Dementor's Kiss skill, which was originally only level 1, to the maximum level.

Furthermore, it simultaneously controls the Dementors' ability to absorb positive emotions, negative emotions, and even the entirety of the soul.

Furthermore, one can use the emotions and souls absorbed to add magic, vitality, or spiritual strength and lifespan to oneself.

The more common one is the Boggart's fear-transforming power.

This ability not only allows Dylan to transform into any form, but also enables him to sense the fear in his target's heart.

In Dylan's view, the latter was much more useful than the former.

It allows one to directly know what the other person fears.

This allows you to directly grasp the opponent's weak point.

As for whether or not to change it into that form.

In fact, as long as you know what the other person fears, Dylan can create a virtual image through magic even if he cannot transform.

Alternatively, you can use Transfiguration to transform other things, which is also possible.

Pipi Ghost's abilities are the worst.
