The first White Lord of Hogwarts - Chapter 42
“Next, let’s learn the first spell of this year, the Illumination Spell.”
Professor Flitwick’s voice was shrill but not unpleasant, and rather playful and cute:”When you recite the spell, make sure you pronounce the words clearly. Follow me and recite ‘Lumos’.’!”
Seeing that the young wizards from the Lion and Eagle Houses were almost familiar with the spell, Professor Flitwick allowed them to practice freely.
“”Luminescent light flickers…”
For a moment, the sound of the spell continued.
The difficulty of the illumination spell was very low. The self-suggestion of the spell was not a hardship for the young wizards.
The key was to accurately apply a certain degree of magic power. Because they had never used a wand to cast magic, even if the young wizards had a clear goal, they still couldn’t make their wands light up.
“Your pronunciation is wrong.”
Hermione corrected Harry and Neville’s pronunciation, while Ivan sat there quietly, thinking about the problems he encountered with the Illumination Charm.
Dumbledore taught Ivan magical knowledge, mainly theory, to lay the foundation for going further in the future.
There is nothing wrong with this, after all, Dumbledore is the principal.
As for the specific subjects, there are corresponding professors in charge.
Dumbledore will not take away the work of professors of various subjects, and he does not have so much time.
Ivan’s current study plan is to study in the library first, and then go to the professors for advice when he encounters something he does not understand.
If even the professors cannot answer, then go to Dumbledore.
“”Oh, look, Miss Granger did it!”
At this time, Professor Flitwick obviously noticed the light bursting from the tip of Hermione’s wand. He jumped up and down, excitedly praising the little witch’s talent for spells:”Because of Miss Granger, Gryffindor gets 5 points!”
In the first class, the first little wizard who successfully casts a spell deserves a reward.
After that, several Ravenclaw students cast the Illumination Charm.
The difficulty of the Illumination Charm is very low. Ivan takes it as the basic unit of 1, which shows its threshold. Almost any little wizard can master it quickly.
In this way, time passed by minute by minute.
Ivan estimated that there were about 10 minutes left in the spell class, and there were only five little wizards who successfully cast spells.
Most of them were Ravenclaws, and Gryffindor only had Hermione and Harry, who received her guidance and correction.
“It should be about the same.”
Ivan didn’t think it was strange. There were only more than 20 people in the whole class, so a success rate of one in four was not low.
“Fluorescent flashing!”
“Fluorescent flashing!”
“Fluorescence…”
“Boom!”
However, just as Ivan was about to raise his hand to ask Professor Flitwick a question about the Illumination Spell, his expression suddenly became serious!
“ah!”
“”What happened?”
In the spells class, all the young wizards were startled by the sudden explosion.
Even Professor Flitwick did not expect this to happen.
The fairy-like dean of the Eagle Academy took short steps and ran quickly towards the explosion.
“”Huh?”
Flitwick was stunned for a moment. He saw a circle of light golden film, with Harry, Ron and others as the boundary, surrounding a boy with a black face and hair turned into a ball.
He was relieved to see that the student only made himself dirty and was not actually hurt.
“Are you okay, Seamus?”
Ivan unlocked the magic barrier, waved his wand lightly, and cast two spells quietly:”Clean up! Restore to its original state!”
In the blink of an eye, the table that was originally cracked and black became brand new, and even Seamus’ hair and clothes returned to their original state.
“oh!”
“What beautiful cleaning and repairing spells!”
Professor Flitwick’s eyes widened, and he looked at Ivan in disbelief:”I have never seen a first-year wizard who can use them so fluently.”
“10 points for Gryffindor!”
“Thank you, Professor.
Ivan asked Simo a few questions, and the boy said he was fine and thanked Ivan for his help.
“It’s okay.”
Ivan solved the emergency and then asked,”Professor, I have a few questions for you.”
“oh!”
“Of course!”
Flitwick was flattered and said,”What do you want to know, little Ivan?”
He liked students with a strong thirst for knowledge, not to mention a genius like Ivan who was so talented and polite.
“That’s right.”
Ivan smiled slightly, his tone calm with confidence and curiosity:”In the process of casting the illumination spell, I found that the spell is not a necessary condition. It is just a psychological suggestion that makes us firm in our ideas.”
“Yes, that’s right. The wizard’s silent spellcasting is based on this.”
After Flitwick finished speaking, Ivan placed his wand on the table and extended his index finger.
A ball of white light appeared at his fingertips, bright but not dazzling, and instantly attracted the attention of all the students.
“Merlin’s beard!”
Flitwick looked at Ivan in amazement. The little wizard in front of him not only abandoned the spell of illumination, but also did not use his wand.
What does this mean?
Silent and wandless casting, the most advanced spellcasting technique in the wizarding world!
“How did you do it?”
Flitwick had seen African wizards cast spells with their hand gestures, but that kind of spellcasting technique was essentially drawing spells in the air.
Just like the spell used by Avada to bite the big melon was a ‘lightning’ symbol, many magic spells would draw their own trajectories in the air when cast with a wand.
But Ivan…
Flitwick watched very carefully. Ivan did not engrave the runes with his fingers. He really completed the process of mobilizing magic power with just his mind.
“
Ivan picked up the wand again and said,”In fact, what I want to ask is not the spell casting technique, but the same spell, due to the different mobilization of magic power, resulting in different magic effects.”
“What?”
This time, not only did the young wizards not understand, even Flitwick was unable to react.
“That’s right.”
Ivan felt that words were not enough, so he planned to show the results of his research in the past two weeks.
“Professor, look, this is a fluorescent spell cast with standard magic power.”
Ivan recited the spell accurately this time, and the tip of the wand glowed brightly.
Then, Ivan began to change the output of magic power, and quickly pointed the wand to the top of his head:”But if I use 10 times the magic power to cast it, it will be like this!”
“”Buzz!”
Instantly, everyone felt a dazzling light above their heads.
Fortunately, everyone focused their attention on Ivan, otherwise it would be like the time when he and Yumi had a painful eye and tears would flow.
