Watching Professor Snape put the Constant-Temperature Medical Medicine Cabinet back in the corner, Zhang Xiao almost felt another page slowly being added to his heavily sealed Book of Embarrassment.
The professor had called himself the Half-Blood Prince in his reckless youth, and his family had used electrical appliances. Of course he recognized a plug.
Zhang Xiao practically fled the Underground Classroom. He absolutely could not afford another blunder this Christmas, and he also had to repay the favor of being taught Memory Magic.
As he walked back to his dormitory, his thoughts slowly began to wander.
Having his cognition blocked clearly weakened him considerably. Of course, removing the block was easy enough.
So if I run into danger that I can't handle in my current state, I should lift the block?
Zhang Xiao suddenly grew interested. Wasn't this just like the multiple transformations so common in anime and games?
If I call my current self my normal form, releasing my cognition will give my strength a huge boost. So should I call that state "cognition-release"?
What would come after my second form, "Cognition release"?
Activating the Golden Light Spell would give me physical abilities far beyond normal, even letting me tank a spell or two. That state would be called... "golden light cognition release"?
Zhang Xiao rubbed his chin and chuckled. This actually seemed pretty fun.
What about my full-power state?
The Void-Clarity Mirror? Zhang Xiao couldn't help drawing a breath. The Golden Light Spell plus the Void-Clarity Mirror... that sounds pretty strong. That should be my full-power state, right? Call it "full release"?
Strong as it is, though, the drain on my stamina and mental energy... I wonder how long I could last.
Besides, he still couldn't control the Void-Clarity Mirror very well, nor could he turn it on
