Chapter 9: The Fear Curse
Hermione's mouth was wide open, her face was full of disbelief, she still remembered that in the Transfiguration class yesterday, Ivan couldn't even stabilize the Transfiguration Charm, why did he become so powerful today?
After completing the transformation, Ivan didn't even stop long, leaving Hermione, who was still standing in a daze, and left alone and returned to the Gryffindor common room.
Ivan, who was holding the book, was walking back to the dormitory when he happened to bump into Harry and Ron, who were holding wizarding flags, and the two of them had a ghostly expression.
Ron looked at the book "Detailed Explanation of the Principles of Basic Spells" in Ivan's hand, his eyes were about to pop out, and the knight in his right hand fell to the table with a thud.
The knight's armor that fell from the sky was shattered, and he slashed at the nail cover of Ron's left hand with a toothpick-thick broadsword in a curse.
"Oh, it hurts," Ron shook his left hand, bouncing the knight aside, then looking at his cracked nails, angrily picked up the cup and smashed the knight who hurt him, and then threw it all into the box to wait for the automatic repair.
Then Ron covered his thumb and said to Harry with a worried expression.
"Harry, you think Ivan won't be like Hermione in the future, right?"
"This... Probably not, right? Harry wasn't sure, either.
The two of them shuddered at the thought of the two Hermiones pointing at them.
Back in the dormitory, Ivan didn't know that Harry and Ron were talking about themselves in the common room.
At this time, Ivan's attention had already shifted to the changes in the various values in the system.

GPA: 20]
After only an hour of Xueba experience card, the improvement is not insignificant, and Ivan's magic spells have basically been raised to the level of the first level.
It just so happened that the other people in the dormitory were not there, so Ivan experimented with the power of the levitation charm and the disarming charm using chests, stools, pillows, and the like.
"Yuga Dim Leviosa~"
"Except for your weapons~"
......
After a few minutes of self-amusing manipulation, Ivan looked at the pillow that had been hit by the disarming spell from the head of the bed to the end of the bed, and the boxes and stools that were floating in the air and slowly falling, and his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.
That's the power of magic!
Few people can resist the temptation of this mysterious supernatural ability, not to mention that before he died of a serious illness in his previous life, Ivan was lying on the hospital bed and liked to read all kinds of magic and fantasy books.
It's a pity that in the past few days that Ivan has just crossed over, due to restrictions for various reasons, even the most basic spells have not been successfully released, and now several spells have been released at once, and Ivan is naturally excited.
No matter what he sees now, Ivan wants to throw a Transfiguration Charm and a Levitation Charm on it....
After about ten minutes of experimentation, Ivan's brain was already a little groggy, which was obviously a sign of magic overdraft.
In the process of casting frequent spells, Ivan also roughly understood the limits of his abilities.
The first is the levitation charm, which Ivan can hover an empty box in the air for nearly forty seconds at most, or levitate his bed for five seconds, but the height of the levitation is only about thirty centimeters.
The second is the Transfiguration Charm, which is able to change the form or even nature of one object into another over a period of time.
This is also the spell that Ivan is most interested in, practicing it to the depths, and even being able to turn inanimate objects into living animals like Professor McGonagall.
I just don't know if this transformation spell can be used on wizards, for example, when facing enemies, a transformation spell turns the enemy into a tree... A slab brick... Pig.. Cattle.. Sheep?
Or turn the shields in front of and behind the hostile wizard into beasts and traps, which can also have the effect of defeating the enemy with one blow.
However, when Ivan thought of this, he frowned, because in retrospect, he realized that in the original book, it seemed that few people would do this.
Even Professor McGonagall, who was proficient in Transfiguration Charm, did not apply Transfiguration Charm to rival wizards in the final battle.
Is it because ordinary Transfiguration Charms can't be used on living beings? The Transfiguration Charm is powerful enough to transform non-living forms into living forms, and there is no reason why the process cannot be reversed.
Hagrid also used a spell to make the chubby Dundari, who bullied Harry, grow a pig's tail, and Draco also had a black history of being transformed into a stoat, indicating that the Transfiguration Charm could work directly on the human body.
Is it because of the influence of magic? Does the wizard have some resistance to Transfiguration? The more powerful the resistance, the more it stacks?
What exactly is that magic? Why are wizards able to use all kinds of incredible magic?
Ivan thought of the only Animagus transformation that could affect powerful wizards, and even such a powerful and difficult magic could only transform wizards into specific animals, and could not achieve the form they wanted at will.
It's more like a solidified Transfiguration Spell, allowing the wizard to switch back and forth between the two forms, with no flaws and no time limit.
"Forget it, what do I want to do now?" Ivan stroked his forehead, he was just a first-year wizard now, and the spell was only at the level that could be released.
It's useless to think so much ....
After experimenting with the Levitation Charm, the Transfiguration Charm, the Light Charm, and the Disarming Charm, Ivan probably had an estimate of his strength.
It's about the level of the average first-year wizard.
After experimenting with the effects of ordinary spells, Ivan turned his attention to the Fear Charm, which is a form of dark magic.
This spell that has appeared in the system since he crossed over to Hogwarts has never been used by Ivan before.
"Fear is coming!" Ivan remembered the order in which he had cast his magic, and waved his wand at Maca's head.
"Goo~" A faint purple light flashed, and Maca tilted her head and looked at Ivan with an innocent face.
"Useless?" Ivan looked at Maca, who didn't react, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Fear comes~Fear comes...."
Ivan cast spells one after another, and the purple light directly enveloped Maca, but Maca thought that Ivan was playing with it, so he grabbed the tip of the wand with his hook-like beak and pulled it.
Ivan reluctantly took his wand back, otherwise he would be gnawed by Maca, and then looked at the fear spell in the system's magic bar and was depressed.
It stands to reason that he should be able to release the spell normally after the first level.
Or is it...
Ivan suddenly remembered the memories that came to his mind when he was invaded by the Sorting Hat...
"Fear..."Ivan closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened his eyes just in time to see the gray-black mouse napping on Ron's desk, and after a moment's thought, Ivan let go of the owl Maca, who was his messenger, and walked over with his wand in his hand.
And Spotted is sleeping soundly at this moment, there are still fragments of multi-flavored beans at the corners of his mouth, and his small paws are divided into four fingers, occasionally unconsciously scratching on the table, as if he is dreaming about something...
