Hogwarts: My Spell Infinite Derivation

Chapter 18 The Ancient Passage? First Deduction of Apparition!

Just as Professor McGonagall was filled with regret for her attitude toward Ciel, Ciel was already being Apparated by the goblin Bashir.

The space before us began to distort and change, and the scenery spiraled away into the distance.

In an instant, Ciel found himself outside the familiar St. Mungo's Hospital.

To his surprise, the goblin Bashir's Apparition was significantly smoother than Professor McGonagall's.

During Apparition, Ciel was intently watching the distorted space the entire time, but the dizziness he felt was far less intense than that of Professor McGonagall's Apparition.

After landing, Charles didn't feel dizzy; he just swayed slightly before regaining his footing.

This caused a strange look to appear in Charles's eyes, and he began to believe that the fairy's Apparition was indeed different from the wizard's version.

Regardless of other fields, in the realm of Apparition, fairies are clearly much stronger than wizards.

At that moment, a deep blue notification sounded, confirming this as well.

"The host has obtained reference materials, and the number of deduction points required for the first deduction of Apparition has been reduced by 3000."

Excitement welled up in Charles's heart.

Don't underestimate the seemingly small reduction of 3000 points. Before this, Shire had already observed Professor McGonagall's Apparition several times, and further observation would have prevented any further point reduction.

But now, observing the fairy's apparition, it can still be reduced!

It's important to know that Professor McGonagall, as the Vice-Headmistress of Hogwarts and a master in the field of Transfiguration, is definitely among the top wizards.

Her magical skills were unmatched by ordinary wizards.

But surely this fairy Bashi in front of us can't be the only genius among fairies?

She looks like just an ordinary fairy.

Yet these ordinary beings have already surpassed Professor McGonagall's limit in using Apparition, which is enough to prove that the goblins' version of Apparition seems to be different from that of the wizards.

A look of curiosity crossed Ciel's face as he excitedly asked the fairy Bashi.

"Wow, I was Apparated here by Professor McGonagall, God, it felt like being shoved into a toilet."

"But this time, Mr. Bashir, your Apparition is much smoother!"

The fairy Bashi said with a superior expression.

"Of course! How can a wizard's apparition compare to ours?"

"Heh, even the Apparition spell was copied from us fairies by wizards, but it's just a clumsy copy."

"Piracy can't beat the original."

"Our Apparition is not only smoother, but also far surpasses that of wizards in terms of distance and stability, and can easily take us to places that wizards cannot."

Immediately, the fairy Bashi pulled Ciel aside to demonstrate.

With a loud bang, a huge stone statue appeared in front of Sharl in the wilderness.

Next, there are rocks where the sea meets the sky, and in the distance, you can see an island shrouded in dark clouds.

Countless scenes flashed by in one phantom shift after another.

During this time, Shire also gradually learned from the fairy Bashi what the difference was between the apparition abilities of fairies and wizards.

According to the fairy Bashi, the reason for the discrepancies in stability, accuracy, distance, and even the fact that one passage is possible while another is forbidden, is that the wizard and the fairy's apparitions do not use the same passage.

If the apparitions of fairies are like riding a train on a railway, with a very wide and smooth journey, then...

Following this principle, the wizards built an even narrower and more rugged mountain path, where horse-drawn carriages stumbled and bumped along.

Therefore, the effects are naturally worlds apart.

Furthermore, while the spell to block Apparition could seal the "mountain path" built by the wizards themselves, it was powerless to stop the "railway" that the fairies traveled.

This is why even Voldemort's sealing spell could not prevent an elderly house-elf from Apparating.

After hearing the information he had gleaned from the fairy Bashi, Ciel suddenly understood, and most of his doubts about Apparition were cleared up.

However, another question is becoming increasingly prominent.

That is the spatial passage or some other term used by wizards to apparate, which they built themselves.

So, what path did the fairies take?

When Ciel asked the fairy Bashi, Bashi looked at him like he was an idiot.

"Of course, it's something we're born with. This ancient passage has existed in the world since the beginning of this world, even before the fairy race came into being."

"It's just that you wizards lack the talent to utilize it; only noble fairies can. It's an innate talent we are born with!"

"If you insist on using your human language, you can just think of this passage as a gift from God."

Upon hearing Bashi's words, Charles's pupils contracted slightly.

This so-called passage has existed since the beginning of the world, before the birth of the fairy race.

The fairy Bashi even called it a gift from God?

He felt like he'd heard that argument somewhere before.

Charles remembered that when Dark had taken him to the basement, Dark had been muttering something frantically.

In his murmurs, he spoke of the ancient rulers, the Old Ones, who once dominated this world in ancient times. Some of the things they left behind still exist in this world, but wizards and other races simply take them for granted and ignore them.

By following these things and delving into ancient history, one will discover that so many great beings once existed in this world.

Those incredible magical phenomena, when traced back to their origins, are all related to these great beings.

So, is this passage, which the fairies regard as a "divine gift," also like that?

Such thoughts flashed through Charles's mind, but he quickly suppressed them.

This is not something he is capable of thinking about right now.

The most important thing is to focus on improving my own strength. Even if the era of the Great Old Ones that Dark mentioned will return, as long as I am strong enough by then, I can skewer and roast the Great Old Ones!

The next moment, Ciel was brought back to the entrance of Gringotts by the goblin Bashi.

The fairy Bashir happily bid farewell to Ciel, saying that Ciel was the most polite, wise, and insightful little wizard it had ever met.

"Mr. Charles, you will definitely make a lot of money in the future and own an underground vault in Gringotts that will be passed down through generations."

"When the time comes, I will definitely arrange a vault in the best location for you."

Ciel gave a meaningful smile in response to the fairy Bashi's blessing.

"Really? Gringotts' underground vault. I'll definitely go inside someday."

After all, Gringotts' underground vaults are full of amazing stuff.

Compared to this place, the Room of Requirement at Hogwarts is practically a pile of junk, except for Ravenclaw's crown.

How can the things that students regard as treasures and dangerous items be compared to the vision of a magical family with an underground vault?

What is stored here are treasures that are considered precious throughout the entire magical world.

The Hufflepuff Cup is just one of them.

Charles believed that among the treasures of those ancient magical families, there might be items even more precious than the Golden Cup.

If we could loot Gringotts' underground vault, our deduction points would be absolutely explosive.

Even setting aside everything else, the sheer number of Galleons containing magical energy piled up in Gringotts alone could provide an astronomical number of deduction points.

But that's a story for later; at this moment, Xia Er's attention was focused on the Deep Blue System.

After observing the fairies' Apparitions several times, the number of deduction points needed for the first deduction of Apparitions was finally reduced to a range that he could accept.

10,000 points!

If we extrapolate from this, it would probably be around 50,000 points. Xia Er doesn't have much less, so he can easily gather the required number.

Moreover, even in the initial simulation, the benefits that Apparition brings to Sharl will be enormous.

At least you can run away if you encounter danger!

So, after a moment, Charles made a decisive statement in his mind.

"Deep Blue, demonstrate Apparition for me!"
