Hogwarts: Starting with full Unforgivable Curses

Chapter 239 Achievement! So what if I like to rummage through some relics?
The Christmas spirit permeated Hogwarts Castle.

After Dylan said goodbye to Harry and the others.

He then walked together with Simon, Neville, and Dean toward the station.

The sky was special at that moment.

The fluffy snowflakes drifted slowly down from the sky.

It looks like a fairy grandmother sprinkling handfuls of icing sugar on the ground.

However, despite the light snowfall, the sun in the distance was very bright.

Sunlight streamed through the thin clouds.

The snowflakes were tinged with a pale gold.

Under the sunlight, the snow on the ground shimmered with silver light.

The world is covered in silver, a breathtaking sight.

Dylan's footsteps crunched through the snow.

He looked around, and the beautiful scenery lifted his spirits.

At this moment, Neville pointed to the shrubs bent under the weight of snow by the roadside and recounted the embarrassing incident of taking care of mandrakes in the greenhouse some time ago.

"Although I've been taking care of these herbs for a long time, the last time I repotted them, the guy made such an exaggerated noise that I thought it was going to mutate. In the end, I was so scared that I accidentally smeared soil on my head, like this."

"Hahahaha!" Simo laughed so hard he almost fell over. "I hate mandrakes. They're so ugly, poisonous, and they make a lot of noise."

The group chatted and laughed, while Dylan walked to the side, listening to his companions' laughter.

Even the cold wind blowing on my face didn't feel so biting anymore.

The warm sun shines down on people, making them feel even warmer.

The distance from the school to the station is neither far nor near.

Soon, they saw the station.

Many students will be going home for Christmas.

Although the situation is not as severe as in previous years, there are still so many terrifying Dementors roaming around the school. If I can go home for a few days, it's naturally better to go home.

The steam train, puffing out white steam, stopped at the platform.

The mist and falling snowflakes mixed together, creating a unique and picturesque scene.

Dylan and Neville found a corner booth in the crowded area.

The four people took up the entire private room.

After putting their things away, the group sat down and closed the door to the private room.

The dark green velvet seats felt soft to the touch.

As soon as I sat down.

Dylan then pulled a bulging cloth bag from the system panel.

Inside was a bag of fresh fruit packed by Dylan.

Bright red apples and plump little oranges.

"Let's share it," Dylan said to everyone.

“Dylan is so thoughtful. The journey is still quite long, so it would be nice to have some fruit along the way!” Dean said.

He didn't share a dorm room with Harry and Dylan.

However, he had a very good relationship with Simo.

That's why Simo usually spends far less time in the dormitory than Ron and the others.

Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for Dean to find him. Most of the time, if Simo has nothing to do, he will stay in the common room.

After everyone was seated.

Dylan then pulled out a book called "Fun Facts about the History of Magic".

He doesn't need every book he reads to have a strong functional purpose.

Dylan believes that books are ultimately just books, and as long as they can bring him new knowledge and insights, he can read them whenever he has free time.

Moreover, although the professors at Hogwarts are generally not very good at explaining the history of magic.

But that doesn't represent what actually happened in the history of magic, as Professor Binns described it, which was rather dull.

If you read more about the history of magic, you'll discover many interesting and different things.

Just like the book "Fun Facts about the History of Magic" that Dylan is currently reading.

—A very interesting book of historical anecdotes with a very unique perspective.

"Tsk! No wonder it's unofficial history; the way it's recorded is so bold."

The part Dylan is reading contains some exaggerated content.

It refers to medieval England.

They have a custom of mixed-gender outdoor bathing.

Hogwarts had just been founded.

Black Lake became the most popular bathing spot for all teachers and students.

It also says that the tentacle water play and suction cup massage activities were all the rage at the time.

Male and female wizards came from all over the country, drawn by their reputation.

There is a growing trend of turning the sanctuary of Hogsmeade into a vacation destination.

But that's not all.

Dylan turned to the next page.

That's what's written on it.

The other three founders of Hogwarts ridiculed Salazar's choice of an uninhabitable dormitory location for a long time.

Until they bathed in the open air.

I saw a Slytherin dormitory window that offered a direct view of the Black Lake.

They then realized...

At any time, Slytherin students straighten up from their heavy workload.

Looking up from the dark and gloomy common room.

—Then you will see a charming spring scene.

Dylan clicked his tongue and shook his head in amazement.

Nowadays, Hogwarts doesn't have the custom of mixed-gender bathing or open-air bathing.

But when it was first established, Dylan didn't know if England had this custom.

But the reason why unofficial histories can be recorded is probably because similar things may have actually happened.

Otherwise, Dylan really doesn't think that such bizarre unofficial history could be written purely based on imagination, just by guesswork.

"Moreover, this unofficial history is actually quite well-founded. Salazar even set up the entrance to his deepest secret in the women's restroom. Such a perverted person would place his dormitory underground where he could see other people showering at any time—I simply can't think of a more reasonable explanation than that."

When Neville and the others saw that Dylan had started reading, they quieted down their conversation.

Then, Neville also took out a book and started reading.

Simo blinked: "Read the book now?"

Neville chuckled: "The professor told me to read it. I thought that if I finished reading it as soon as possible, I could learn more about herbs sooner."

Dean gave Neville a thumbs up: "You guys see, Seamus and I will keep our voices down."

After glancing at the unofficial history book in his hand, Dylan turned his attention to his system panel.

Yesterday he won the Ravenclaw crown, which should have marked the beginning of some new achievement.

as predicted.

Click to enter the achievements panel.

Dylan first claimed the other minor achievements.

A bunch of attributes like spirit, stamina, and strength were added to Dylan.

Dylan subtly cracked his knuckles.

It has a stronger sense of power now.

"It feels like if things continue like this, I won't need to research immortality anymore, nor will I need to rely on the power of Dementors to eat other people's emotions and souls every day to survive. With so many points added up, won't I be able to achieve immortality directly at a certain point?"

Even setting aside magic, his physical abilities alone far surpass those of adults.

It's just that Dylan doesn't usually need to use his physical abilities at all.

"But maybe one day in the future, I won't need any magic at all. I can just smash someone with my wand and they'll explode on the spot."

Dylan suddenly thought of a word.

Muscle Mage!
"At that time, this should also unlock some kind of achievement, right?"

Dylan clicked his tongue slightly, then turned his gaze back to the system panel. ——————

[Achievement]: So what if I like rummaging through some relics? (Part 1)

[Description]: Only the relics of the giants have value! Valuable things are unwanted, so what's the point of taking them for yourself?

[Requirement to unlock]: Possess one of the relics of the four giants.
[Achievement Rewards]: Random max-level spell +1, Ravenclaw portrait, treasure map (Ravenclaw Treasure Edition)

------

Dylan held the book, seemingly reading, but in reality, he was staring at the system's achievement rewards.

This reward seems pretty good.

Every name caught Dylan's eye.

Seeing Dylan's excited expression, as if he had gained some valuable knowledge from the book, Dean and Seamus, sitting opposite them, couldn't help but admire him inwardly.

A good student is a good student!

Even reading can make me happy.

They really can't compare, they're just not comparable!
Neville, who was sitting next to Dylan and reading with him, also noticed Dylan's expression.

He glanced at Dylan, then at the book in his hand, and suddenly a decision formed in his mind.

"Even if I can't become as knowledgeable as Dylan, I will try my best to learn as much as possible so as not to hold my future self back!"

Last time, after hearing Dylan say that he might become the professor of herbalism at Hogwarts when he grew up...

Not only did Neville have a goal, but he also became more motivated and eager to learn as a result.

He was inspired by Dylan again. Although the carriage was silent, Neville felt as if some background music was playing around him.

effort!

Come on!

Neville continued reading.

He carefully studied the knowledge of various herbs.

Dylan had no idea that his three friends thought this way about him.

Instead, he checked his three rewards.

"Another max-level spell? Let's see what it is this time!"

Dylan after claiming the achievement reward.

The scene before my eyes changed instantly.

He entered the world of consciousness.

At this moment, the surrounding space suddenly twisted violently, like melted wax, constantly deforming and recombining.

A flash of light.

When the light faded, Dylan found himself in a space filled with countless translucent bubbles.

Dylan raised an eyebrow and looked around.

Suddenly, the surrounding bubbles burst one after another with a "pop pop pop".

The scene changed instantly again.

He appeared in a dark and damp basement.

A tall man was mechanically tidying up the clutter, his eyes vacant and weary.

Dylan saw himself raise his wand, then took a deep breath and chanted aloud.

"Fabrica Sogni Maxima (Dream Building)!"

Swish!
Blue incantation light burst forth from his hands.

The basement walls collapsed with a crash.

In the blink of an eye, they found themselves in a magical sea of ​​clouds dotted with floating islands.

Broken bricks recombine in mid-air, transforming into a glowing staircase.

The tall man stared in astonishment as his old clothes transformed into a magnificent robe.

A path leading to the Cloud Castle appeared beneath their feet.

Dylan waved his arm, and the light of the spell outlined all sorts of incredibly magical scenes in the air.

First, a dense forest rises from the ground, and then glowing lightning bolts dart through the air.

Then the calm lake surface suddenly began to churn violently, and a huge toilet covered with jewels leaped out.

Dylan was stunned.

He is.
Staying in a dream?

Dylan continued moving at this moment.

He kept adjusting the intensity of the spell.

The entire dream was being reshaped according to his ideas.

The tall man was finally crowned and received cheers from a bunch of toilet subjects.

Finally, he commanded the magic fleet—which was also a giant toilet.

Soaring into the blue sky, heading towards the distance.

When he stopped casting the spell.

The sea of ​​clouds and the castle gradually dissipated.

The tall man reappeared and stood in the same spot.

The numbness in his eyes had transformed into confidence and ambition.

—A new understanding has been inexplicably and successfully implanted into the other person's consciousness.

Dylan slowly opened his eyes.

He was only stunned for a moment, yet he had already mastered a max-level spell!
“Fabrica Sogni Maxima?”

Feel the magical knowledge that is born in your mind.

After a moment of careful observation, Dylan fully understood the function of the spell he possessed.

He can project pre-conceived memory images, like a movie, into the dreams of the people he designates.

Moreover, we await the awakening from this great dream.

In this person's mind, there will remain the things Dylan wanted the other person to do, or the principles he wanted the other person to understand.

That is, what Dylan wanted to tell the other party.

This curse
"It not only involves changing other people's consciousness, but also distorting their souls!"

However, this dream construct differs from the Soul-Capturing Curse in that...

Its harm to people is very low, extremely low, and exceptionally low.

The Demention spell can also create and manipulate souls.

But ultimately it will cause too much trauma to the other person's soul.

Perhaps the person whose soul was forcibly affected by his soul-capturing spell would become an idiot or a fool after their magic was drained.

However, the Extreme Dream construction is different.

This spell allows Dylan to silently infiltrate other people's dreams.

If Dylan wants the other party to do something, he leaves a hook.

Waiting for the other person to wake up, as long as some opportunity arises.

Regardless of what you see or hear.

They will be unconsciously influenced and thus deviate in the direction Dylan hopes to see.

If Dylan wanted to be even more direct, he could tell the other person what he wanted them to do directly through a dream.

Of course, this applies if the other party is already familiar with Dylan, or even trusts him.

Then the other party will not have any doubts and will be willing to do as Dylan instructed after waking up.

However, if the other party has a bad relationship with Dylan, Dylan's direct orders might backfire.

Make the other person think that they just had a nasty dream.

However, the effects of this curse are not limited to that.

Dylan can also leave messages for others by invading their dreams.

Or, setting those aside, if Dylan simply wanted to change the other person's personality, it's not impossible for him to do so.

Just like the demonstration just now.

He could completely transform a numb, ordinary person into someone confident and ambitious simply by creating scenes and images in their dreams!
"Isn't this spell far too valuable?"

Dylan's eyes lit up again!
