Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

"Everything is forgotten!"

He chanted the spell and then waved his wand.

And it was at this moment...

"!!!"

Ryan saw with extreme clarity the spell configuration constructed by Lockhart.

That was the configuration of a forgetfulness spell, but not entirely.

It was unlike any forgetfulness spell the young wizards or Ryan had ever seen.

At the moment when the light of the spell flashed, even though Ryan was not the target of the spell, he still felt a sense of emptiness in his mind for a moment - he seemed to have suddenly forgotten who he was, what his purpose was in coming here, and even forgot the spell configuration itself.

Then Ryan realized what it was.

"Magic Essence!"

That's right.

The Oblivion Spell that Lockhart cast at this moment, like Voldemort's Killing Curse, is a powerful spell that directly touches the essence of magic!

Just as Ryan had guessed before.

Even legendary wizards would be wary of this spell.

What was manifested externally was an extremely bright glow bursting out from the tip of Lockhart's wand.

The powerful magic power poured into the crystal ball under the surprised gaze of the young wizards, and then the crystal ball was also filled with strong light.

"Wow!"

Ron, who was almost ready to see Lockhart make a fool of himself, let out a strange cry.

Obviously, none of the little wizards could have anticipated this scene.

No one expected that Professor Lockhart could use such a powerful spell!

At this moment, Ryan was completely certain of his guess about Lockhart.

At the same time, he was genuinely curious about how Lockhart had mastered this spell.

It was obvious that Lockhart could not be a legendary wizard - he could not even approach the realm in any direction.

But he just happened to master a legendary spell.

Ryan was curious about how he did it.

But obviously, this is not the time to go into details.

So at this moment, Ryan just looked at the spell - he was also very curious, which one was more powerful, the legendary spell cast by someone like Lockhart or his strongest spell now?

so...

"Abundance incarnate!"

"Magic Radiance!"

Magic power began to surge from Ryan's body.

He stimulated the seed of abundance in his body, and for the first time, he mobilized all his magic power as never before.

That's right.

Ever since the fusion of the Philosopher's Stone by chance last year.

In fact, Ryan had only unleashed his full magical power once.

That was during the summer vacation at the Gaunt mansion, when he fought against Dumbledore who was bewitched by the Resurrection Stone.

And since then, he has never really used his magic power at full strength again.

And to know.

It has been nearly half a year since that time.

And it is just as I said before.

For Ryan, his magic power has been growing almost all the time since he absorbed the Philosopher's Stone.

Let alone half a year, even if it was just one month, the increase in his magic power combined with his attainments in spells would be a huge change for an ordinary wizard.

So it's only natural.

Even Ryan himself was not sure about the level of power he would gain if he unleashed his magic at full power.

so...

"Blade of Ambition!"

Ryan once again used this ancient spell inherited from Gryffindor, which he used most easily when dueling with dark wizards.

But this time, the situation was obviously completely different from before.

Before this, the Blade of Ambition that Ryan had used was just a burning magic sword created in his hands with powerful magic and courage.

But at this moment...

"boom!"

The sword did not appear in Ryan's hand, but directly above his head.

And the size of the sword was no longer just enough for Ryan to hold.

Instead, it almost penetrated the entire ceiling of the classroom - even though the classroom was already set up with a traceless telescopic spell for the convenience of club activities.

It was an extremely huge sword.

The patterns on it are also much clearer than any previous 'Blade of Ambition'.

The burning magic fire was almost like a lion's mane, emitting a strong sense of oppression.

At least at this moment, the young wizards present were having difficulty breathing.

Even an old veteran like Barty Crouch, who had experienced countless duels and captured dark wizards, couldn't help but frown at this moment.

But Ryan didn't care about other people's reactions.

He simply raised his wand slightly, and...

"fall!"

He waved his hand, and the giant sword suddenly fell towards the crystal ball.

A vast magical power penetrated into it in an instant, and then...

"Crack!"

Everyone could clearly see that distinct cracks began to appear on the crystal ball.

Then...

"Oh!"

With a crisp sound, the crystal ball shattered completely.

The enormous magical power within it also burst out suddenly as the crystal ball shattered, turning into a dazzling firework and dissipating.

Only the bewildered crowd and Ryan, who looked surprised, were left.

"...I can't bear it anymore."

At this moment, Ryan naturally knew what the situation was - after all, he was the owner of the crystal ball.

So he understood that the situation just now was due to the collision of powerful magic, so the crystal ball could not bear such a huge magic power and completely shattered.

However, Ryan could sense it before the crystal ball shattered.

"The magic power of my Blade of Ambition does not overwhelm Professor Lockhart's Oblivion Charm. It is even slightly inferior, but the gap between them is not that big."

He muttered to himself, but he naturally understood what this meant.

This means that his spells have indeed not yet reached the legendary level.

But at the same time, it is blessed with the almost endless amount of magic power from the Philosopher's Stone.

Although his spells have not reached the legendary level, they are very close to that level.

At least compared to the truly legendary spell like the Oblivion Charm cast by Lockhart, it is only slightly inferior.

"This means that if I encounter a truly legendary wizard, I may not be able to defeat them, but at least I have the possibility of dueling with them. And if it's just a wizard like Lockhart who has somehow mastered some legendary spells, I can easily crush them."

Ryan judged in his heart.

But obviously.

While he was muttering in his heart, it was obvious to the little wizards that this was not what he meant!

"Who...who won this?"

For example, at this moment, some little wizards don’t understand the situation.

But obviously, another group of little wizards have their own opinions.

"It must be Ryan!"

Mr. Ron Weasley, for example, was very excited at the moment.

"Didn't you see? Lockhart's spell only made the crystal ball glow. Of course, I admit that I underestimated him. He is indeed quite capable."

"But Ryan... Oh my God, did you see that sword just now?"

"It directly shattered the crystal ball like it was cutting tofu—need I say more? It's a completely different level of power!"

Ron said excitedly.

After hearing his words, the other young wizards felt that it made more and more sense.

That's right.

This is also what most people see.

Naturally, they were unable to capture the spell competition inside the crystal ball and could only judge the situation based on external manifestations.

So in their view, the gap between Lockhart who 'made the crystal ball light up' and Ryan who 'split the crystal ball' was obviously huge.

Don't even mention them.
