The instant Hendry's Reductor Curse touched Xiwen's palm, fine blue-purple scales appeared in Xiwen's palm.

The spell struck the scales but had no effect whatsoever in Reductor Curse. Instead, it bounced off and was casually tossed aside by Xiwen to the other side of the room.

With a loud "boom," the Reductor Curse slammed into the cabinet against the wall, making a huge noise. Then, the entire wardrobe turned into a pile of dust and scattered on the ground.

Hendry glanced at the shattered wardrobe beside him, then at Xiwen's now-white hand, and swallowed hard.

"What exactly are you...?" he said with difficulty.

Xiwen ignored his thoughts.

He looked at his palm, quite satisfied with this method of localized Human Transformation, and was thinking about what other ways he could use it in the future.

However, Xiwen showed no outward joy. He expressionlessly raised his wand and pointed it at Hendry, saying, "If your offensive is over, then it's my turn."

Hendry, refusing to believe it, cast another spell, but Xiwen easily dodged it by tilting his head.

Then, Xiwen cast a Disarming Charm and a Binding Curse, which confiscated Hendry's wand and bound him to the ground.

"Mr. Hendry, don't blame me for not warning you." Xiwen stood beside Hendry, looking down at the wizard bound to the ground, and said coldly. "I specifically went to give an interview to <Wizard Weekly> to express my attitude towards your comments, but you people completely ignored it."

"So I had to resort to some of my own methods to shut you up."

"You, you're trespassing! That's illegal!" Hendry said, looking somewhat flustered.

"Now you know what law to talk about?" Xiwen said dismissively. "Do you even know that spreading rumors is illegal? Besides, according to the Ministry of Magic's Judgement system, do you really think those juries would offend the Rosier family for someone like you who has nothing?"

Hendry was speechless. The courts in the Wizarding World were probably still at a medieval level, and their impartiality was practically nonexistent.

"However, just to be on the safe side, you'd better sign a contract." As he spoke, Xiwen took out a piece of parchment from his Pocket Watch Space, covered with various Runes symbols. "Do you recognize this? This is Servant Contract."

"By signing this contract, you must guarantee that you will not do anything to harm me again, and you must not disclose any of my information to anyone else. Otherwise, the power of this contract will make your life a living hell!"

This Servant Contract is a one-sided contract based on wizarding bloodlines, which Xiwen learned while studying Bloodline Magic. This contract only binds the follower and has no effect on Xiwen, the leader.

Those who break the contract will be punished according to their bloodline. Although it is not as severe as the death described by Xiwen, it is still not something an ordinary wizard can bear.

"That's impossible!" Hendry shouted angrily. "Go ahead and kill me if you dare! I'd rather die than sign such a contract with you!"

"Looks like I was too mild-mannered." Xiwen pursed his lips, unsure whether this person thought he was a good guy or that he was too young and inexperienced to handle a scoundrel like him.

"Fine, since you've made this request, I might as well grant your wish."

Upon hearing Xiwen's words, Hendry's eyes revealed a hint of mockery, as if he simply did not believe that Xiwen was the kind of person who would kill someone.

Xiwen's expression turned completely cold, and he raised his wand at him.

"Ah, Vada..."

As the incantation was slowly recited, a green light appeared at the tip of Xiwen's wand.

"How could this be?!" Seeing the green glint at the tip of Xiwen's wand, Hendry finally panicked and shouted, "No, don't kill me! I'll sign! I really can sign!"

Xiwen chuckled, dispelling the green light from the tip of his wand, then looked at Hendry with a half-smile and said, "Tell me, where did your bravado go?"

Hendry, filled with shame, almost impatiently infused the parchment with his magic and signed the Servant Contract with Xiwen.

Seeing the parchment burn to ashes in the air, Xiwen nodded in satisfaction and released the stubborn wizard who wouldn't admit defeat until he was faced with a fatal blow.

"Verda Sparkle works as well as ever."

After leaving through the Dimensional Gate, Xiwen couldn't help but sigh.

By attaching Runes metal pieces to each reply, Xiwen located every wizard who uttered arrogant words, showing them what it meant to hit someone with the owl's nose and making them finally understand the principle that trouble comes from the mouth.

Not only did the wizards who sent letters to Xiwen learn a lesson, but Xiwen also didn't let those pseudo-experts who published offensive remarks in newspapers and magazines off the hook.

Coincidentally, the Malfoy family held shares in various newspapers and magazines, so Xiwen, using Abraxas's status as the Malfoy family heir, easily learned the mailing addresses of those pseudo-experts and went to their door with the owls who delivered their manuscript fees.

Through these battles following the owls, Xiwen had gained considerable experience in various combat skills and gradually integrated the skills he had learned, making significant progress.

However, after teaching a lesson to everyone, Xiwen realized that wizards like Hendry frequented Knockturn Alley, were actually the best fighters among them, while most of the so-called experts and scholars who spoke so passionately in newspapers and magazines couldn't even cast a decent defensive spell...

Therefore, the cautious and ever-ready-to-save Ghost Xiwen, never had a chance to make a move, and it was only thanks to the body of a second-year wizard that he managed to take down all the adult wizards.

Only then did Xiwen realize that his combat strength had surpassed the average level of the Wizarding World.

As Xiwen used his "strength" to get almost all the wizards who had made offensive remarks to sign Servant Contract, the wizards in the Wizarding World suddenly realized that the articles and comments about the young scholar who had recently received a lot of attention had become clearer, no longer containing as much criticism and hostility as before.

While some experts have pointed out shortcomings in this Blood Curse Countermeasure Theory, their opinions are relatively objective. Much of the content offers fair evaluations of the methods proposed by Dumbledore and Xiwen for countering Blood Curse.

Xiwen finally had some peace and quiet. Although he still received quite a few letters every day, they were all from genuine experts and scholars, and these channels of communication with experts were exactly what he needed.
