Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 318 Return and Further Research

"Aisen, are you back?" After seeing Aisen, Professor McGonagall showed a surprised expression.

"Yes, I think there are some things I need to tell Dumbledore. You have his contact information, right?" Eisen nodded, and did not mention his situation in the United States, but focused on it. I have something to inform Dumbledore.

"Yes, that's right, but I think you can go to the principal's office." Professor McGonagall said gently, "Dumbledore has returned."

"Really?" Eisen was taken aback, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then nodded, "Okay, I'll go find him now!"

Showing a hint of urgency appropriately, he gestured to Professor McGonagall, opened the door and turned to leave.

Walking in the corridor leading to Dumbledore's office, Eisen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Could it be that Dumbledore's plan failed and he came back early?

Or, after Voldemort got Slytherin's wand, he had already fought with Dumbledore, and as a result, Dumbledore foiled Voldemort's plot and then came back?

In other words, Voldemort has not actually appeared yet, Dumbledore has not taken action, and both parties are just secretly accumulating strength?
This is possible!
correct--

After the news of Dumbledore's return to Hogwarts is revealed, it may make Voldemort feel more at ease about appearing in Crouch's house.

Maybe this is part of Dumbledore's plan?

Thinking like this, Aisen nodded thoughtfully.

A few minutes later, he had reached the eighth floor and entered Dumbledore's office smoothly.

However, the moment he saw Dumbledore, his powerful perception allowed him to discover something very shocking - the Dumbledore in front of him was a fake, or a puppet!
"Dumbledore?" The wand was already in his hand, and Eisen looked at the other party with suspicion.

"Well, Eisen Turner, I knew I couldn't hide it from you!" Dumbledore in front of him shook his head with a smile, and then began to explain.

Two minutes later, Eisen put down his wand and looked at Dumbledore's figure with a surprised expression on his face.

In fact, just as he had thought, Dumbledore created a puppet and returned to Hogwarts in his own stead.In fact, he himself is still hiding in the dark, monitoring every move of the Crouch family.

The purpose is naturally to dispel Voldemort's suspicion and make it easier for the other party to take the bait.

Of course, the puppet he made was not a clone like an external avatar, but a "tool" that needed to be controlled by himself.Therefore, he cannot focus too much on dealing with various complex things here.

This also means that Dumbledore will occasionally appear in front of teachers and students at Hogwarts, but most of the time he will probably "stay" in the office.

"By the way, what did you find over there?" Seeing that Eisen was silent, Dumbledore asked.

"Yes, you want me to pay attention to the abnormal situation over there. Is it the snake tree at the door of Ilvermorny?" Aisen's face was stern. Although it was a guess, his tone was particularly firm.

"That's right! Salazar Slytherin's wand is buried over there!" After a moment of hesitation, Dumbledore nodded slowly.

"Then I think you should be prepared. Although I didn't find anything unusual there, I checked and found that there was no trace of the wand under the tree!" Eisen said solemnly.

"Has it been taken away by Voldemort?" The expression on Dumbledore's face quickly faded.

Eisen nodded, and then said calmly: "It should have been stolen shortly before the Easter holiday. If it takes too long, the tree will be abnormal, but I didn't find anything abnormal when I checked." ."

"Have you met my old friend? Could it be that he was negligent?"

"I saw it! But it wasn't because he was negligent. I can't be sure! But if Voldemort really sent someone to steal it, then he must be a very cautious person."

"If Voldemort gets Slytherin's wand, his strength will be greatly enhanced!" Dumbledore said lightly, but what he saw on his face was confidence in himself.

"I think you should be more careful in secret!" Looking at Dumbledore's expression, Eisen couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly.

Voldemort's strength will increase a lot when he gets Slytherin's wand, but the wand in your hand is the Elder Wand, one of the Three Hallows of Death.Well, although the name of the Deathly Hallows is a bit of a misnomer, it is indeed the most powerful wand in the world.

So, what would happen if Voldemort got Slytherin's wand?

"Yes, that's right!" Dumbledore said calmly, and then changed the topic, "I guess he will take action in the near future. During this time, you should pay more attention to the situation at the school."

"In the near future - during the third event of the Triwizard Tournament?" Eisen seemed to have thought of something.

"It is very likely that once something happens in the Triwizard Tournament, it means that I will be involved in this matter. In this way, he will be able to do his own thing with peace of mind." Dumbledore's eyes showed that he had seen through everything.

"He will send his men to sneak into Hogwarts to cause trouble?" A look of surprise appeared on Eisen's face.

"The Ministry of Magic will send many people to protect this place, but I think you should be more cautious!" Dumbledore nodded.

"Okay, I get it!" Eisen said calmly, "So, is there anything else?"

Seeing that nothing happened, he said goodbye and left Dumbledore's office.

After returning to his office, Eisen placed the crucible for brewing the potion on his desk and performed the last step.

That's right, after a period of brewing, he was very sure that the potion he brewed was going to be successful.He reached out and touched the crucible a little, and the decoction inside quickly started to spin.

A little bubble emerged from the soup quickly, as if it was still being heated, and it kept making a buzzing sound.

After a while, the potion in the crucible calmed down and turned into a dark green liquid.A few bubbles popped up in the liquid, and then became completely silent.

At the same time, an unpleasant smell poured into his nose, making Aisen couldn't help but frown.

"Is this the brewed potion? Is this the beauty of the fragrance that Professor Snape said?" As he spoke, Eisen did not cast the bubble spell, but held his breath directly, "I I think he’s talking nonsense!”

Shaking his head, Eisen did not express any emotion, but poured the potion in the crucible into a glass.Then place the crucible in the corner of the office.

"Well——, the process of brewing the potion is very clear, there is no problem." Putting the glass in front of him, Eisen looked at the dark green liquid flowing in it, and said slowly, "However, you have to cooperate with this Using the Kaping Appearance Spell, perhaps this part of the memory can be blocked first!"

As his thoughts turned, a piece of parchment appeared in Eisen's hand.

Then, the Scapin Revealing Charm was cast on the target.

Then, just as he had expected, detailed information such as the ingredients and brewing process of the potion in the cup in front of him were directly fed back into his mind.

The deep color in his eyes flashed away, and the information was directly projected into the dream world by him, and then copied directly on the parchment in his hand through spell casting.

After completing these actions, he did not stop, but lifted the previous memory shield.Then he picked up the parchment and read it against his previous memory.

After half a minute, Aisen put down the parchment with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Sure enough, although the Scarpin Appearance Spell can identify the ingredients of the potion and some information about the brewing process, it cannot specify the time between each brewing step."

"In that case, the Scarpin Appearance Spell can let the wizard know the specific ingredients of the unknown potion, but to successfully brew it, I'm afraid it will take a lot of experiments."

"Having said that, the detection feedback mechanism of Scapin's Apparition Spell is still very powerful. Well -, yes, although it is very unscientific, it is very magical!"

As he muttered, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Putting the parchment away casually, Eisen held a cup of potion, and after hesitating for a moment, he placed it on the corner of the table.Immediately afterwards, he took out the Book of Abraham, placed it on the table, and turned it to the second page.

Scapin's Appearance Curse!

Eisen was multitasking. While casting the Scapin Revealing Curse on the potion, he began to outline the effects of the spell with magic words.

Traces of faint smoke-like clouds emerged, and then turned into magic symbols one by one, like flowing clouds and flowing water, outlined into runes suspended in mid-air.

The fingertips moved slightly, tilting out a smart silver light, like dancing elves, jumping up and wrapping around the runes.Like the stars in the night sky, they first flicker and then shine as bright as day.

Symbols appeared in the sky one after another, moving around Eisen's fingertips, looking like an elegant beauty.

But Eisen's attention did not relax at all.

The Scarpin Appearance Curse continued to be cast on the potion placed on the corner of the table. The ingredients of the potion and other information were fed back to Eisen's mind, but he did not care about it.

He was paying attention to the rhythm of magic that was fed back to him the moment the spell was applied to the potion.

As Aisen's movements continued, the rune on the tip of his other finger was also constantly rotating and undulating.

A rune suddenly lost a corner and collapsed completely.

At the same time, the magic runes emerged one by one and continued to be outlined, turning into runes that were slightly different from before, and continued to surround his fingertips.

Immediately afterwards, another rune twisted and changed, collapsed and disappeared, and then continued to outline the runes with magic words and fill in the original position as before.

Time passed bit by bit, and Eisen adjusted the combination and arrangement of the runes on his fingertips while continuously casting the Scapin Revealing Spell.

Finally, all the runes were reconstructed by him.

Eisen stopped casting the Scarpin Revealing Curse, but the runes spinning at his fingertips still didn't stop.

Silver brilliance circulates on the fingertips, leaving traces in the air, like the trajectory of the planet, becoming more and more coordinated.

His thoughts moved slightly, and he was as blessed as his soul. Aisen mobilized the magic power in his body, and the runes dancing on his fingertips were connected by him and turned into a circle.

"The fit of this shape is too high. Is it round? Or is it the 'Tao' in the dark?"

A flash of enlightenment flashed deep in Aisen's heart, his fingers brushed in front of him, the ring shattered and turned into runes again, and then turned into an endlessly rotating ring again.

"If we continue to adjust like this, I'm afraid I can develop an enhanced version of the Scarpin Revealing Spell! Unfortunately, this is not my purpose."

The magic power flows continuously in the ring with the rotation of the runes, like a tide, constantly impacting forward.At this moment, Eisen discovered an extremely beautiful rhythm in it.

After feeling a lot of emotion, Eisen still broke it up and turned it into a single rune.

As his thoughts turned, he outlined the magic words one by one, turning them into runes that were continuously combined and arranged.More runes with meanings such as detection, analysis, and identification were embodied by him.

"Feedback, well, there is nothing wrong with the runic expression of the Scarpin Appearance Spell. The key is that the goals of detection and analysis, or recognition, are different. In terms of 'knowing language', it is aimed at - wait, language? Text? ?”

After looking at the "Book of Abraham" on the table, Eisen frowned and then relaxed.

What he thought before was that since he wanted to decipher the text on this book, it would be better to develop a spell like "knowing the language".Now it seems that this idea is a bit biased.

Because Eisen's goal is to understand the text in this book, in fact, all he needs to do is to develop "knowledge of text".In other words, just develop a simple version of "language proficiency".

Although writing was born on the basis of language, the writing that can be recorded is obviously more specific.In this way, Eisen's research work should be easier.

As for the full version of "Language Proficiency", maybe its effect can allow Eisen to master languages ​​such as Parseltongue and Mermaid like Dumbledore.

But in fact, he didn't have this need.

After figuring this out, Eisen continued with his movements.

The magic runes jumped in the air one after another, constantly replenishing the runes, and then being continuously expelled.Those rejected magic words disintegrated again and turned into dots of silver light dissipating in the air.

The magic runes were constantly embedded and adjusted, and the runes spinning on Aisen's fingertips slowly increased.Then, under his control, the runes were reconnected end to end, turning into a bright silver ring.

I saw that the outer layer of the ring was shrouded in silver luster, and the runes inside continued to absorb and restrain themselves, as if they were turning into substance, giving people a strong texture.

"Uh--, why does it look like a diamond bracelet?"

Looking at the ring that was constantly rotating around his fingertips, Aisen suddenly felt a little speechless.

However, it seems it’s not perfect yet!

Feeling the incompleteness of the ring due to the missing runes, he couldn't help but frown.

Originally, Eisen thought that he had disassembled the Scarpin Appearance Spell and brewed a potion himself to coordinate the use of this spell, so it would be easier to study "Letter Proficiency".

But I didn't expect that the difficulty would suddenly increase so much after dismantling the Scapin Revealing Spell and then replacing the object of detection and analysis with text.

With his eyes slightly closed, Eisen entered the dream world, browsing through the memories of previous modifications, adjustments, and construction of runes, and replayed his previous actions.

A ring exactly like the one on Eisen's fingertip appeared in the dream world.

Opening his eyes, Aisen stared at the ring in front of him. Although he was a little frustrated, he didn't have much ups and downs.

Speaking of which, he had already experienced the difficulty of developing a new spell, so he expected it every time he took the final step.

One after another, the magic words kept coming out of the fingertips of Aisen's other hand, like soldiers being lined up for review, constantly surrounding the ring, flying into it, and then being pushed out again.

One by one, the runes under the command of Aisen tried to make up for the imperfections of the runes in the circle, but each rune continued to fail.

"Is it because I don't know enough magic words? No - it's just magic words that detect, analyze and identify meanings. Wait - since it's about identifying words, it should be possible to express them directly in magic words, right? "

Eisen's eyes lit up, and then his mind turned, and the rotating ring on his fingertips quickly enlarged and floated.

In the blink of an eye, a ring as big as a millstone and as thick as an arm appeared in front of him.

The magic runes were outlined, and without any adjustments or modifications, they were embedded in the ring and replaced the positions of some runes.

A faint silver light emerged, and all the runes inside the ring were adjusted slightly.The broken parts of the runes suddenly expanded, but as time went by, they gradually shrank again.

The magic words replaced the runes in the circle one by one. Gradually, a kind of magic words and runes were combined together, and a balanced beauty emerged in Eisen's heart.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Eisen's mouth, and he knew that he was about to succeed.

Half an hour passed, and a bright silver magic text was outlined, filling the last gap in the ring.

In an instant, Eisen seemed to hear an extremely clear click sound, and the entire circle suddenly became perfect.Then, this complete whole began to change directly.

The silver light covering the ring quickly converged and poured into the runes inside.As he thought, the ring quickly shrank, spinning around Aisen's fingers, and a faint silver light flowed endlessly.

"Is this—successful?"

Holding the rotating ring in one hand, Aisen finally breathed a sigh of relief.At this time, an unprecedented sense of joy and satisfaction emerged in his heart, making him intoxicated.

Now that "knowledge of words" has been pioneered, the next step is to engrave.This step was too easy for Eisen.

Taking a deep breath, Aisen calmed down and focused on the ring in his hand again.Then, he opened his God's perspective and focused on the ring and himself.
