Chapter 664: Preparation

The day after the book club ended, Ryan finished his morning work and asked the house-elves to bring lunch in advance. Soon, the house-elf appeared in the lab with a large silver platter with a hamburger, a plate of salad, and a bowl of creamy mushroom soup.

"Why did you eat so early today!" Hermione asked a little strangely after seeing the house-elf put the large plate of food on the table, but she quickly reacted. "Is it Harry's magic?"

"Yes," Ryan said slightly slurred after taking a bite of the burger topped with roast beef and cheese. "The casting time of that magic is 21 days, and today noon is the time when the magic ends. ”

"Let's hope everything goes well. Hermione said after listening to Ryan's words. "If we can successfully eliminate the mysterious soul lurking in Harry's body, then it represents a crucial step towards the complete elimination of the mysterious man. ”

"That's true. Ryan nodded. "Of all the Horcruxes made by the Mysteries, Harry's accidental product is the most troublesome, after all, other Horcruxes don't need to think about maintaining the integrity of the Horcruxes themselves. Not to mention that Harry, who was a Horcrux, had spent too much time with the mysterious man's soul, and even merged into one. If I hadn't found some kind of special, targeted magic in other worlds, Harry would have had to take some sort of gamble if he wanted to get rid of the mysterious man's soul alive. ”

"That sounds like good news. Hermione frowned slightly. "That's right, Ryan. How reliable is that magic you're giving Harry?"

"I don't know, I just see how lucky Harry is. Ryan shrugged his shoulders helplessly. "It's not that I'm shirking my responsibility, it's that this magic was previously only used as a curse on enemies. None of the records say what to do if the magic is directed at a remnant of a soul that lives on someone else. ”

"In the absence of any case to refer to, I had to adjust the magic to Harry's situation through my understanding of the magic after mastering the rules, hoping that the magic would be more effective in Harry's current situation. Fortunately, judging from the results of the calculation of the magic principle, this magic should be able to have the desired effect. ”

"The most important thingβ€”" Ryan said as he stood up and looked at Hermione, "the magic I designed this time will ensure that even if the magic fails, there will be no major after-effects, and it will ensure Harry's life to the greatest extent. ”

It was half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, and Ryan finished his lunch and walked in the direction of the principal's office. Along the way, he saw students who had not had classes in the morning marching towards the auditorium to prepare for lunch.

After arriving at the door of the principal's office, the two stone monsters blocking the door of the principal's office immediately jumped to the side to make way for Ryan. The monster on the left said, "Nice to meet you, Ryan. Headmaster Dumbledore has told us to let you in whenever we see you coming, and he's already waiting for you in the office. ”

"Thank you!" Ryan asked, nodding to the monster. "Is there anyone else in the office besides Headmaster Dumbledore?"

"Absolutely. The monster on the right said, "Five minutes before you arrived, Harry Potter entered the Headmaster's office from outside. Headmaster Dumbledore is only going to receive you and Harry at noon today, and he specifically ordered us to stop all but the two of you at noon today. ”

When you make your way up the stairs to the door of Dumbledore's office, the door opens automatically. Ryan saw Harry and Dumbledore standing at the table, talking. After discovering him entering, Professor Dumbledore stopped talking to Harry.

"Ryan, you're finally here. Headmaster Dumbledore turned to Ryan. "We're all ready to do what you asked, when can we start?"

"We started at 12 noon. Ryan said as he walked over to the black scarecrow and began the final round of inspections, asking Harry. "Harry, do you have any other feelings these days other than the feeling of a growing connection with this straw man? ”

"Well, it's a little different if you say that. Harry said, scratching his hair. "For the past two days I felt like I was a little irritable, and then a little sleepy. ”

"Looks like the magic is working. Ryan nodded and said to Harry. "It's part of the magic, and you don't need to worry about it. In another half an hour, it will all be over. ”

For the next half hour, the three of them chatted with each other, until it was 12 o'clock in the afternoon, when the strange silverware on Dumbledore's desk spewed smoke from the Latin number XII., and there was a crisp metal tapping.

"When the time comes, let's get started. Ryan walked over to the black scarecrow, which looked much better than it had been before. The straw became black and shiny, and it no longer looked like it was made of straw, but rather like it was woven from fine leather.

"There's no problem with the oil lamp, and there's no problem with the magic array. Now it looks like everything is in place. After carefully examining the straw man placed in the center of the headmaster's office, Ryan began the final spell casting step.

After a few gestures from Ryan, the pink Madonna of Roses appeared above his head, after which it began to glow brightly but not blindly. The light grew larger and larger, and finally, a one-man-tall phantom of a pink rose appeared in the office.

"What is this?" Harry asked Professor Dumbledore beside him with some confusion after seeing this magical scene. Because all the magic he had been exposed to before was directly released, even the last time Dumbledore and Voldemort fought in the halls of the Ministry of Magic, there was no magic with such a special sound and light effect.

"I don't know. Dumbledore shook his head, then whispered to Harry. "You have to know that every powerful wizard has his own special magic, and even I can't recognize them all. However, I can feel that Ryan is doing his best to export magic, and Ryan has also said that his philosopher's stone is called the Rose Madonna, which may be the reason for the appearance of the Rose now. ”

Ryan didn't pay attention to the conversation between Dumbledore and Harry, who was now using all his magic to activate the magic that had been placed on the black scarecrow before.

"Professor Dumbledore, you sit Harry down first, and then hold him in place. After the first round of spelling, Ryan turned to Dumbledore and said, "Because the next steps may cause some irritation to Harry's soul, which may cause his body to convulsions or coma." ”

Then he said to Harry, "Harry, you don't have to worry. These are expected and will not cause you any harm. ”

"No problem, don't worry about me. Harry nodded with his hands into fists, then turned to Professor Dumbledore. "Please tie me straight to the chair, I'm sure I'll hold on. ”

After making sure that Harry's condition was fine, Dumbledore conjured a chair in the living room for Harry to sit on. Several ribbons popped out of the chair and anchored him to it.

"Alright, Professor Dumbledore, and Harry. After seeing that everything was ready, Ryan turned his head and continued to stare at the black scarecrow, and now he could clearly sense that there was an active and evil spirit inside the scarecrow. In this case, the most crucial step of the whole magic is about to begin.
