HP Approaches the Magic World

(Thanks to Trooper1770 for the 1000 point reward)

If you can do it, try not to delay it. Violent unpacking is not recommended. It is still possible to use a little brain.

Thinking back when he saw the blood purification potion, the first thing he thought of were those extinct materials, weren't they the substitutes?

There is nothing in this world that cannot be replaced. People can be replaced, but items cannot be replaced.

Jon held a lump of slime that he found outside the Hufflepuff lounge, looked at it carefully under the light from the tip of the wand, and after confirming that it was an unusual-looking lump of slime, he carefully placed it in a small box.

inside.

This lump of ooze should be enough for betting on the keyhole.

Although I have never done lock picking, I think the principle should be similar. Anyway, as long as the spring of the lock is opened... I guess.

Try it first, and then say no if it doesn’t work. What if it works?

Jon waited silently for the hands of his watch to skip nine o'clock, then put the small box containing the slime into the ring, raised the wand and lit it on himself.

"disillusio."(Disillusionate)

The Illusion Body Curse has been improved by Helga and is much more difficult, but the improvement in strength is also obvious. This [improved version? The Illusion Body Curse] has improved a lot in terms of stability and concealment, according to Helga.

, is to modify a little bit of the way the magic power operates, and add a little effect of the disappearing spell.

The specific improvement process can probably write an academic paper. Jon still doesn't understand it yet, but it will be useful if it can be used.

After waving his hand to ensure that there were no flaws in the concealment effect, Jon left the dormitory.

At this time, there was actually someone reading a book in the common room. Jon thought it was not an option to wait any longer, so he simply cast a soundproofing spell at the entrance of the passage.

It's not very effective and doesn't last long, but even if Jon goes out, it won't take long.

He had walked the road from the Hufflepuff lounge to the study on the eighth floor countless times. He had already figured out which stairs moved and when on this road, but there was a slight hiccup on the way there.

Mr. Filch caught some unlucky guy who was still wandering around the castle after the time was up. Oh, there were two of them. Jon, who was hidden by the Disillusionment Curse, took a closer look and saw that they were indeed the pair from the Weasley family.

twin.

Will be caught by Filch... that means he hasn't gotten the Marauder's Map yet.

Thinking of this, Jon was not in a hurry. According to normal logic, Filch would take the twins back to his own office, and then take the two of them to Professor McGonagall's office.

"Don't even think about running away. If you run away, there will be no good fruit to eat."

As soon as Jon approached the door of Filch's office, he saw the castle guard with a gloomy face threatening the twins: "Don't think about it being easy this time. I'll just give you little bastards a tough one."

Teach me a lesson, you won’t be so casual when you violate school rules in the future, right?”

The twins had nonchalant expressions on their faces. It seemed they didn't care about Filch's nagging at all. Instead, they were looking at this place that most students avoided with great interest.

Jon was also looking at this gloomy office while checking the location of the drawer in his memory.

Filch, who was sitting behind his desk, took out a piece of parchment from the desk drawer and laid it out in front of him, then picked up a long quill pen and started writing on it.

They are all acquaintances, no need to ask for their names.

"Wait, let's see what the dean of your college says this time. You will definitely not be able to escape your confinement. Now follow me to see Professor McGonagall!"

Jon was at the door watching Filch write the punishment letter and take the twins away. He just seemed to see one of the twins look at the drawer where the Marauder's Map was kept, several times.

It's not necessarily because they knew about the Marauder's Map... It should be the plot in the original book. They planned to steal something back from Filch, and the Marauder's Map was just taken away with it.

After Filch led the people out, Jon turned and walked into Filch's office. When he was about to open the drawer on the filing cabinet, he saw a pair of green cat's eyes.

Filch's pet, Mrs. Norris, was lying next to the filing cabinet.

Almost ignored it.

Jon rolled his eyes and pointed his wand at the stairs outside.

"Jingle."

There was a sound of something falling to the ground outside, and Mrs. Norris meowed and ran out. Jon immediately walked to the filing cabinet, pointed his wand at a drawer that read "Confiscated Materials, Highly Dangerous" and tapped lightly.

"The Alajo Cave is open."

The drawer quickly slid open, and it was filled with various magic props. An envelope was quietly lying among the pile of props.

"Copy as a double."

Jon quickly made a copy of the envelope. As for whether the map inside had been copied, that was not something Jon needed to consider.

After stuffing the envelope containing the Marauder's Map into the ring, Jon happened to meet Mrs. Norris who came back when he went out. Fortunately, his Disguise Spell was powerful enough.

Without stopping on the road, Jon quickly reached the eighth floor. He first used the Revealing Spell to remove his invisibility, then opened the Ravenclaw study and walked in.

Helga had been waiting for a while for the world inside the portrait to emerge to the surface.

"Ancestor."

"You're late." Helga whispered over the portrait: "Did something happen?"

Jon shook his head, took out the small box and envelope from the ring, and placed them on the desk.

"Nothing happened, just a small gain. Let's open this drawer first."

Jon opened the small box and expertly pressed the dug-out soft mud ball onto the keyhole. At the same time, he waved his wand and the magic spell came into effect. The small keyhole was quickly filled with the squeezed-in soil, and then deformed and solidified.

, Jon twisted it lightly and heard a click.

The lock is unlocked.

Jon exerted more force, and the key made of soil was pulled out, but the drawer did not open.

...endless embarrassment.

"How is this going?"

Jon looked at Helga on the wall in confusion, but the witch saw something wrong.

"It's a noose spell. There is a noose inside the drawer. Either pull it open directly or use a spell... This is a secret spell, only the four of us know it."

Helga started to feel sad again as she spoke. Jon was used to this kind of scene. If the other three founders had left a trace of their souls to accompany her, it wouldn't be like this.

Unfortunately, Slytherin left, Ravenclaw was too sad about his daughter, leaving only the Room of Requirement, and Gryffindor left behind the sword and the Sorting Hat - speaking of which, the Sorting Hat should also be able to entrust the soul.

Yes, I guess the legendary wizard didn't think so.

Also, except for witches like Hufflepuff who are reluctant to leave their students, there are not many people who would want to leave a trace of their soul when they die.

He listened to the spell silently and began to practice casting it.

This time the drawer finally opened and the contents leaked out.

"This is……"
