Three minutes later, the extraordinary state ended and Tom lay on his back, gasping for breath.
The results are gratifying.
Although the power of the spell decreased due to lack of magic power, his control ability was qualitatively improved. He only injured two dummies by mistake, and the rest were all destroyed in order.
Physical practice + extraordinary understanding is definitely a winning combination. The progress he made in these ten minutes is something that many people would never be able to understand in their entire lives.
Andros also sighed quietly.
Tom has such a terrifying talent (system power), and he will eventually grow into an unprecedentedly powerful wizard.
...
After resting for half an hour, Tom felt that his condition was beginning to improve. He no longer felt dizzy and the feeling of weakness gradually faded away. These were signs that his magic power was recovering.
Although he still felt tired, Tom forced himself to continue training.
Compared to physical comfort, he actually desires strength more.
The experiences of two lives made him deeply understand that only those who possess absolute power are qualified to enjoy life.
In the previous life, power was money and power.
And now, power is magic!
So there is really no problem with the Sorting Hat putting Tom into Slytherin. Perhaps Tom thinks that he gains power just to protect himself and live a better life, but this is still an ambition.
Ambition, bloodline, talent, these three things added together, no one is more Slytherin than Tom.
call out!
The magic spell flashed red light, bypassing the obstacles and successfully hitting the target.
But Tom was still not satisfied.
He clearly remembered the shock caused by Andros's spell.
The spell flies faster than his, and the power of the spell used with the same magic power is greater than his. If the power caused by him is 1, then Andros is about 3 or 4.
Tom knew that it was still a long way to go for him to catch up with Andros, but he was not discouraged. He had to take one step at a time and practice one spell at a time.
First increase the speed and stabilize the hit rate. As long as these two can be achieved, you will be the top among ordinary wizards.
...
For two days, except for going back to the dormitory to sleep and going to the auditorium to eat, Tom basically stayed in the Room of Requirement.
He also specifically modified his requirements for the Room of Requirement and added another level of difficulty.
The dummies are no longer just targets that move erratically. Several knight puppets will actively attack, wielding unsharpened swords.
As soon as the cooling time of physical practice was over, Tom immediately and decisively turned on the extraordinary mode.
This time he did not rush Andros, but allowed him free play, learning his fighting steps and the technique of casting spells while moving.
"Tom, you are too weak."
After the practice time was over, Andros returned to the study space and smacked his lips in dissatisfaction, "Gather the materials and prepare the potion as soon as possible, otherwise your physical development will not be able to keep up with the speed of your magical progress."
"What's the hurry?"
Tom said slowly, "The bigger the task, the less anxious you should be. Otherwise, you will make mistakes and leave loopholes."
"Besides, do you think my current level is qualified to make that kind of advanced potion?"
"Even if I get it, I'll still be staring blankly, or it'll be a waste of materials. Do you think I can buy it a second time for free?"
Andros was speechless for a moment.
He only considered whether he could gather the materials, and forgot that Tom had only taken one Potions class, and it would be easy to fail even with his real-time guidance.
"Then you have to pay more attention starting next week. You can't become a master of Potions just by reading books. You must have a lot of practical experience and summarize your own experience."
"Yeah." Tom nodded, "I plan to go to the Forbidden Forest to look for materials, and then buy some if they don't have any."
"As long as you have a plan." Andros also agreed with Tom's idea.
at the same time.
In a luxurious manor in Yorkshire.
A beautiful middle-aged woman with blonde hair is reading a letter delivered by an owl.
She is Elise Greengrass, the current head of the Greengrass family and Daphne's mother.
After reading the letter, Mrs. Greengrass was both angry and amused.
Mrs. Greengrass was very pleased with her eldest daughter's coquettishness in the beginning and the longing for her revealed between the lines. But in the middle, her style suddenly changed and she started to complain about how hard life was at Hogwarts.
Finally, his true intention was revealed and he asked for five hundred Galleons.
It's only been a week since school started, and the money given before leaving has already been used up?
Besides, how could she not know what the living conditions were like in Hogwarts? Everyone graduated from this school back then.
Five hundred Galleons, this is the evolution from a little princess to a gold-eating beast.
At first, Mrs. Greengrass was worried that Daphne was being bullied by other students at school and that was why she asked her family for money.
But feeling the joy hidden in these words and the upward curling of the footers, Mrs. Greengrass put her worries aside.
She could see that her daughter was doing well in school.
So why does it take so much money?
Just as Mrs. Greengrass was lost in thought, a gentle voice came from the door: "Mom, has my sister returned with the letter?"
Greengrass turned around and waved, "It's Astoria, come and see, your sister is crying poor to me."
A thin little girl in a dress came in.
The girl had delicate features, but her face was extremely pale and unhealthy. Her hair should have been the same bright golden color as her mother and sister, but due to lack of nutrition, it had turned silver-white and lost its luster.
The veins on her thin arms were clearly visible, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
A flash of pity flashed across Mrs. Greengrass's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it so that Astoria wouldn't notice.
Walking to the writing table, Astoria quickly finished reading the letter and asked curiously, "Mom, does it cost a lot to go to Hogwarts?"
"Of course not." Mrs. Greengrass smiled and shook her head. "It's just that your sister has always been lavish with her money. Maybe she has taken a fancy to some nice jewelry or clothes?"
With her daughter by her side, Mrs. Greengrass began to write back.
She planned to give the money, since it wasn't much anyway, but she also needed an explanation from Daphne, otherwise it would be hard to say about her pocket money for next semester.
Astoria rolled her eyes, said something to Mrs. Greengrass, and went back to her bedroom, taking out the thousand Galleons she had recently saved from her cupboard.
Since my sister is short of money, I'll give the money to her. She doesn't have much to spend the money on anyway.
