That day's conversation left no trace under the effects of Obliviate.
The days passed one after another until the new term began.
Cypher still had not completed Magical Reprise.
By the edge of the Forbidden Forest, before a pile of firewood.
"Crackling Explosion!"
It had to be said that wands truly allowed wizards to cast magic with greater precision.
Holding a wand with his own Katana as its core, Cypher cast the Exploding Charm at logs as large as millstones.
To better find the point at which to trigger a reprise, Cypher naturally did not choose overly powerful magic.
Even when casting textbook spells, he insisted on using the lowest possible amount of magic to power them.

Just as Cypher repeatedly cast spells at the woodpile, trying to find a breakthrough.
A familiar call came from behind him.

Although Cassandra looked somewhat bedraggled, the strength in her voice made it clear that she was not seriously hurt.
"You're back! Time really flies!"
