Draw Big If You're Going to Draw!

After a series of commonly used spells were upgraded to level two and gained a lot of extra proficiency, Sean saw the row of spells below.

Imperius Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 49000/100000

Cruciatus Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 52100/100000

Killing Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 100000/100000

Fiendfyre Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 26000/70000

Raise the Dead (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 10000/10000

Inferi Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 30000/30000

Boiling Blood Curse (Dark Arts) Lv3: Proficiency 19000/50000

Wait, wait, wait...

Sean: "..."

In the section on Dark Arts, the spell levels have all been changed to a bright Lv3.

The Raise the Dead was one thing, but the Avada Kedavra was also at level three, which left Sean with several black lines on his forehead.

Are you scared of Killing Curse Wandless and Silent Casting? I can give you a Avada Kedavra with just a flick of my finger.

Although Sean had always known that his proficiency in Dark Arts was increasing very quickly, he never expected it to be this fast...

Is Dark Arts Talent really that exaggerated?

Moreover, because of this terrifying talent, Sean doesn't lose too much power when Wandless and Silent Casting. If Sean wanted, he could even activate Dark Sleeper and use Dark Arts to wipe out the opponent directly.

Each green light requires no spells or wands, and gains a significant power boost from the Dark Sleeper.

Sean felt like he was getting closer and closer to the Dark Lord was wreaking havoc on the world...

However, I am, in essence, a bomb that is destined to blow up the whole world.

Shaking his head, Sean stopped worrying about it. Having greater power was actually a good thing, as long as he could maintain a proper balance and ensure that his mind wasn't corrupted by too much Dark Arts.

As Sean continued reading, he became somewhat speechless again.

The increase in proficiency gained from those Ancient Spell was far too little compared to other spells. In fact, compared to proficiency in Dark Arts, it even made Sean feel inferior...

Is there any hope for my Ancient Runes?

With a sigh, Sean turned his gaze to the long-unused Lottery Draw pool.

His eyes lit up immediately, and he felt a surge of joy.

He drew a prize at the beginning of third grade, so it should have been about three months ago. Sean remembered glancing at the system a few days ago and seeing that he only had about four hundred points.

To his surprise, although the year had passed, his points continued to be awarded based on the twenty points earned from completing the tasks each week!

The score has now reached 1450!

Logically speaking, I disappeared into thin air this year, and I can only earn points after completing tasks.

Although most of the tasks are simple, basically involving earning a fixed number of points in a course or gaining favor with certain people, the fact that you can still get points even if you don't complete the task is a pleasant surprise.

Looking at the 1,450 points in the prize pool, Sean rubbed his hands together.

He's starting to feel a little itchy now.

Although the system's prize pool has a low drop rate and no guaranteed reward, 1400-1550 points means 145 Lottery Draw, which made Sean had been saving up for a long time but could only draw a few dozen times, a little unable to resist.

Although I really wanted to save my Lottery Draw chance for the day I took Felix Felicis again, after all, it had been a year since I disappeared, and it wasn't too far off before I took my second Felix Felicis, but...

"Let's try a ten-pull first and see how my luck is today. If it's not good, I'll stop! "Sean made up his mind.

"System, ten consecutive draws," Sean commanded in his mind.

What happened next almost made Sean faint.

A weak white light flashed by, and a system notification popped up immediately.

You've received a Fizzing Whizbees!

What's the point? I'm a super VIP at Honeydukes now, can I have candy whenever I want?

You have obtained the Premium Wand Maintenance Kit!

I bought a whole bunch of wands last time, and the care kit that came with them is enough for me to use for years...

You got a signed jersey from the Quiberon Quidditch Team captain!

I don't play Quidditch at all...

You have received a washable quill pen set!

You have obtained a Wizarding Chess set!

You've won the Witch Weekly Christmas Special Limited Edition Couple Magic Bracelet (Men's Style)!

Sean's lips twitched a few times. There wasn't even a blue light; it was all white. And what use was a separate limited edition men's bracelet to me?

Was I having really bad luck today?

Sean took a deep breath.

"System, give me another ten draws."

A blue light flashed, and the notification popped up.

You have obtained the Magic Hair-Growing Potion Set!

You have obtained the twelve-piece set of magnificent crystal bottles for storing Potions!

You've received a Magic Earwax Cleaner!

You have received a limited edition magic bookmark from Obscurus Books Publishing House!

Among a pile of white items, a blue item lay alone in the middle.

Automatic Dream Interpreting Crystal Ball (Blue): Using this Crystal Ball for dream Divination will allow you to see clearer omens.

Sean: "..."

He didn't really want to talk anymore.

He got a guaranteed blue item after 20 pulls, and he still has absolutely no talent for Divination...

Sean gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with a competitive spirit.

I really don't believe in superstition!

"System, give me ten more draws!"

You have obtained a Quaffle model!

You've won a Color-Changing Top Hat!

You've received a deck of Fireproof Magic Playing Cards!

You have obtained a Fenrir Greyback Transformation Card (blue)!

Fenrir Greyback's Transformation Card: A consumable item that transforms you into Werewolf for thirty minutes. During this time, you will have all the abilities of Werewolf, including claw toxins and Werewolf virus infection, but you will have an extreme craving for blood during these thirty minutes.

Sean: "..."

"System, try again!"

You have received a box of Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder!

You have received a large bottle of Invigoration Draught!

You have obtained...

You have obtained a bottle of Powerful Antidote (blue)!

Sean took a deep breath.

"Again!"

You have obtained...

"Draw another one!"

"I refuse to believe it! I'll have a smoke!"

"This is the last time! If you hit me again, you're a dog!"

"... a blue... woof woof woof! Draw!"

"Pull, pull, pull, pull!"

"This is really, really, really the last time!"

"I'm fucking... smoking..."

"Sean, what's wrong?" Hermione asked curiously from beside her.

Sean, his face ashen, twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace.

"It's nothing, I just thought about a lot of things, and they're... making me melancholy..."

"Why don't you go back and rest for a while?"

"No need, no need," Sean put on an act, revealing a gentle smile. "It's just temporary. Let's wait for breakfast."

Daisy and Hermione exchanged a puzzled look, and finally the innocent- Little White Flower blinked and said, "Then you should eat more later."

"Good..."

Turning his gaze back to his system panel, Sean felt like crying.

One hundred and thirty draws! A full one hundred and thirty draws!

Two purple items, twelve blue items, and everything else... is white!

Why can't I control myself...?

Gambling is a bottomless abyss full of trouble, Sean looked up out the window.

Ah, the sunlight is so bright...

Ugh, this Lottery Draw is utter garbage! If I ever touch Lottery Draw again, I'll... I'll be a damn dog!

Looking at the last 150 points on the scoreboard, Sean sighed.

Ten minutes ago, this number had a zero at the end...

Never mind, never mind...

"System, draw the remaining 150 points as well."

He had given up hope, so he simply finished smoking and that was it.

However, a dazzling golden light emerged from the prize pool, more dazzling than any Lottery Draw Sean had ever seen!

Sean stared wide-eyed, not daring to blink, for fear that he was seeing things wrong.

One, two, three, four...

One, two, three, four?

Four!

Four gold items were lying in Sean's inventory, and there were even two purple items and three blue items next to them!

At that moment, Sean almost shed tears of emotion.

Good deeds are rewarded! Four yolks!

I love Lottery Draw! Lottery Draw are the best!

After calming himself down, Sean eagerly began to examine the spoils that had finally come to fruition.

First, the simplest gold prize: 1 Freely Assignable Talent Point.

Next up is Sean's favorite Golden Set.

Severus Snape Advanced Set (Gold): Potions Talent, the ability [Potion Explorer], the ability [Haughty Gaze], and the ability [Cold Gaze]. Additionally, you will find it easier to discern the freshness of Potions ingredients when brewing Potions, and you will gain a small amount of pleasure when cleaning Cauldron and organizing Potions ingredients.

Sean almost burst into tears.

Finally, there's hope for my pitiful Potions talent!

God knows how painful it was to have Snape picking on me even though I worked so hard because of my two Potions Talent.

Even Harry, that Potions genius, was still targeted by Snape...

Without hesitation, Sean immediately used the Severus Snape Advanced Suit.

On the system panel, the glaring "2" finally jumped to the somewhat reassuring "5".

Potions Talent: 5 (You no longer have to be so terrified when Brewing Potions; this talent is enough to earn you the occasional smile from the Potions Professor. Note: Except for Severus Snape)

Don't laugh. If Snape actually smiles at me, I'm in big trouble.

Sean looked at the description of the ability below.

[Potion Explorer]: After you have mastered and become proficient in concocting a certain number of advanced Potions, you can make unique improvements to a Potions recipe.

Current number of Potions recipes mastered: 0/10

"Hiss..." Sean grinned.

That's quite an ability. You see, with the development of Potions to this point, all improvements and innovations have become extremely difficult. Moreover, improvements often mean creating a completely new Potions formula. As far as he knows, in recent decades, there have probably only been a handful of wizards who have developed new, high-level Potions —you could count them on one hand.

Among them were two Potions prodigies, Lily Potter and Severus Snape.

However, these conditions are quite demanding.

You need to comprehend and concoct a certain number of high-level Potions. First of all, there aren't many recipes for high-level Potions to begin with, and many are still privately collected. Moreover, comprehending something may seem like just a word, but it's actually quite difficult to do so.

But at least it's a skill, Sean is already quite satisfied.

If you keep reading, the last two abilities are grouped together.

[Haughty Gaze]: When this ability is activated, those you are looking at will involuntarily feel anger and humiliation. At the same time, the effect of enemy provocations on you is greatly reduced, and your resistance to mental spells is slightly increased. (The effect is weakened when targeting groups.)

[Cold Gaze]: When this ability is activated, the person you are looking at will involuntarily get goosebumps, and their mind will be somewhat disturbed. (The effect will be weakened when targeting a group.)

Note: When [Haughty Gaze] and [Cold Gaze] are activated simultaneously, the abilities will merge, greatly enhancing your sense of oppression and intimidation, and increasing the mental pressure and disturbance experienced by the person being stared at.

Goodness, it's a mental ability, and it seems to work on all life forms.

And this ability, well, how should I put it...

This is so Snape...

Aside from his abilities, Snape's advanced armor set also grants Sean two other benefits: the ability to determine the freshness of Potions ingredients, which is very useful as many Potions require extremely fresh ingredients.

As for the pleasure derived from cleaning the Cauldron and arranging the herbs... Sean nodded, guessing that Snape probably found those two tasks quite enjoyable.

When it came to the third golden prize, Sean raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Wandmaker's Glory (Gold): For ten hours after use, you will gain a keen observation of wand wood and core materials, and the [Embedding] ability. Cooldown time is one month.

[Embedding]: You can embed a second magical material into a completed wand. The wand's power, controllability, etc., will be improved. The extent of the improvement depends on the compatibility between the second material and the original wand.

Additionally, you can embed various cores into a brand-new wand blank (a wand without a core), the number of cores depending on the wand wood and the compatibility of the different cores.

Note: Recklessly inserting the wand may destroy both the wand blank and the wand core. Please be careful.

The Wandmaker's Glory piqued Sean's curiosity. Undoubtedly, more materials meant greater power, like the wand Salazar Slytherin once used. That wand had a round hole at the bottom, into which Horned Serpent gem could be inserted to grant the wielder the ability to fly.

In other words, with this ability, Sean can create a wand that perfectly suits his usage habits and is quite powerful. In fact, he won't even need to change his wand when he transforms into Animagus!

Furthermore, Sean can also use this ability to upgrade his friends' wands, but it's unclear whether there are any limitations to this "embedding" ability.

Sean was already having the idea of embedding something into the Elder Wand...
