Harry and Neville Open Up to Each Other

Just as Kate and Ryan were bickering again because of Ryan's little tricks, the cause of this incident, and the fact that Neville, whom Harry Potter and the others had mentioned before, was once again carrying out his daily, unwavering training in a corner of the castle.

The cool breeze of the midsummer night kept blowing against Neville's body, but he seemed oblivious to it, as his thin robe seemed to isolate him from all external disturbances.

He sat cross-legged on the grass, white silk threads faintly visible, and a blunt greatsword lay flat on his knees.

The Billywig, about a foot long, blue all over, with a bright, jade-like luster, seemed to be attracted as well, turning into blue light and shadow around him, yet they dared not approach.

But Neville's thoughts were entirely focused on his own consciousness at that moment.

It was a strangely shaped sword, indigo blue, with unknown characters flowing across it like clouds reflected on the water.

However, Neville now knows that this is called Cloud Script, a magical script similar to Runes from a mysterious ancient Eastern country.

In the eyes of Muggle in that country, Cloud Script is a script that is naturally formed by clouds in the sky. After being copied by the gods in the sky and wizards called "fairies", it was passed down to the human world and contains the mysteries of the universe.

This strangely shaped sword, engraved with Cloud Script, is not a real sword, but rather a vision of Neville's mind.

At that moment, he was sketching the sword in his mind again and again, and at the same time, he regarded it as himself, forgetting his real form.

To achieve this, Neville even bought a magic box from Australia —a prop made specifically for Billywig enthusiasts, similar to Newt's box, the most famous Care of Magical Creatures of our time.

It contains a stable space that can support a group of Billywig.

When you buy Neville, it comes with a bunch of Billywig.

When multiple Billywig fly around him at high speed, he enters a state that can be described as being guided into "higher thinking" due to the vibration of those wings.

This way, he can more easily get into the zone and truly master the magic that Ryan gave him.

This was also a simple introductory method that Ryan introduced to him when he gave him this magic.

Because this spell seems simple, and the incantation is in the simplest English, without any specific intonation, emotion, or even gestures.

But this means that to achieve it, you need something else—the seemingly simplest thing: willpower, which everyone possesses.

Without Ryan's shortcut, Neville estimated that he would have had to practice for ages before he even got started.

However, this shortcut also has its drawbacks.

That is, if it cannot remain "still", the startled Billywig will use the long, thin stinger at the bottom of its body.

If he gets stung by Billywig, he will feel dizzy and float unsteadily in the air.

Another thing to note is that if you get stung, you should quickly take out the magic box in your pocket and open the door for them to go home.

Excessive stings can cause uncontrolled floating for several days.

If an allergic reaction occurs, it could lead to permanent levitation.

However, all of the above risks are worthwhile in order to master this magic.

He was a little puzzled as to why, in Hermione's hands, the magic only produced a sword that couldn't be Transfiguration with Transfiguration.

This is completely different from the effect of his current method of combining physical transformation with willpower tempering.

He had consulted Hermione about this as well.

Hermione said that perhaps it was because the magic just happened to suit him that it had such an effect.

Such examples abound in the A History of Magic.

"However, recently I've discovered that when these Billywig sting me, I don't feel dizzy or even float."

"Moreover, not only that, in Charms Class, when faced with charms other than those from Harry and Professor Flitwick, I have a feeling that even if I reach out my hand, I won't get hurt or be affected by the charm." These thoughts flashed through Neville's mind as he sketched the sword in his heart.

He had no idea that this was all due to the nature of his magic.

It can be described as the magic power that breaks through demonic barriers.

As he imagined himself as a sword, he constantly sketched out the sword's actions in his mind, which also allowed his magic to flow around him and transform him.

In other words, his magic resistance has increased.

Ordinary magic has no effect on him at all.

Then, the sword within Neville's heart became eternally present.

He could also use his invisible anti-magic sword to cut down some more powerful spells that exceeded Neville's magic resistance, by expending additional magic power.

This means that even Killing Curse could potentially force him to take it.

However, Neville was unaware of all this.

He mistakenly believed that the changes in his body were all caused by this magic.

He didn't know that this magic would bring him to this point.

"Who is it?" Neville suddenly stood up, raising his sword and pointing straight ahead.

He patted his pocket, and beams of blue light filed in.

"I almost didn't notice you." A surprised voice came from in front of Neville. When the figure came closer, Neville realized it was Harry.

Harry looked at the grass beneath Neville, where a strange Magic Array was formed by white cotton threads.

"This Magic Array has the effect of making people ignore you, doesn't it?"

"If Terry hadn't been observing from the Astronomy Tower, the tallest building in Hogwarts, he probably wouldn't have been able to spot you at all at such close range." Harry circled Neville, looking him up and down.

"So it was Terry."

"Before practicing at night, I make sure to avoid nights with Astronomy Class."

"Has Terry already obtained Professor Sinistra's approval?"

"Now he can go to the Astronomy Tower every day to use the telescope?" Neville put down the greatsword in his hand.

"Of course." Harry paused for a moment, then continued, "Is it Ryan?"

Seeing the effectiveness of the magic circle and Neville's strange behavior, he immediately thought of Ryan.

Because he was the same.

If it weren't for the fact that none of his roommates, except for him, got up at 6 a. m.

He would become, like Neville, the subject of conversation among his roommates.

"You too?" Neville frowned.

He looked Harry up and down.

In the wind, Harry's bulging muscles beneath his robes were faintly visible.

"Of course," Harry nodded.

His muscular physique is proof of that. In addition, the Phoenix- shaped magic that had been accumulating in his heart began to travel along his blood vessels throughout his body.

Just like now, Harry stretched out his right hand, open it upwards, and a golden and red bird appeared in his palm.

Neville, too, extended his right hand, and accompanied by a blue, lightning-like beam of magic, a strangely shaped sword appeared in his hand.

Seeing the strange phenomenon in each other's hands, Neville and Harry both smiled broadly.
