Chapter 255: I Have a Bold Idea

"Yes, of course I have a way." Hearing Nick's uncertain question, William replied with great confidence.

"What do you know about soul magic, Sir Nicholas?" His gaze looked at Nick's pearly transparent body.

"I don't know much about it, it's a field that few wizards have dabbled in, even when I'm alive." Nick shook his head, as he said, modern wizards also know very little about soul magic.

I am afraid that the only people who can study the soul thoroughly are those crazy warlocks in ancient times.

Don't know much about it? That's easy to do.

Since Nick doesn't understand magic, he's going to have to listen to someone who does, doesn't he?

"Because of my family, I know a little bit about soul magic, and according to my judgment, the ghost is also a part of the soul, it may be the remnant of the soul of the deceased in this world, or it symbolizes the embodiment of the soul of the deceased, I don't know.

However, since the essence of a ghost is the soul of a wizard, it can naturally be damaged and modified by soul magic. ”

In the empty classroom on the fifth floor of the castle, William talked to Nick, now that he knew that Nick didn't know so much about soul magic, William was even more confident in speaking.

"So, I had a bold idea. On the premise of complete safety, use the damage spell to cut off your head with precision, so that you can truly become a headless sir? You can join the Headless Hunters. ”

After listening to William's answer, Nick opened his mouth wide, and he was frightened by William's wild thoughts.

Nick could be seen to be in such a state of shock that he didn't even notice that his head was restlessly bobbing around his neck, and was hanging from the other side of his body with his slight sideways.

"Anyway, all that's left of your head and neck is a thin layer of skin."

"Your idea~~ sounds crazy!" Noticing that his gaze was shifting, Nick straightened his head and said to William.

"How sure are you?"

"If everything goes well, I think the success rate is very high." William patted his chest and assured Nick.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Nick that he was still a newcomer to soul magic, and that he wanted you to dedicate himself to the cause of magic.

In that case, Nick would never have agreed unless he was insane.

He didn't have such a high level of consciousness.

"However, that will be until I have an accurate result of my research on ghosts, and to be honest, due to a lack of material, my current research on ghosts is progressing very slowly."

"Is there anything I can do to help you?" Nick quickly understood William's intentions.

"Yes, I want you to participate in my experiments as a voluntary helper, I need to know about the ghost through you, after all, I only dare to cut off your head with a spell after I really understand the ghost and make sure that my operation will not harm you."

Hearing William's words, Nick dragged his chin with his hand, his eyes looked a little erratic, and although William's suggestion sounded crazy, he was still a little moved.

Nick had had enough of that damn head on his neck, no matter what method he used

If William could really separate them.

"I can assist you with your experiments. But you need to tell me about your experiments and plans as they are. The spell you use to hurt your soul must not be black magic. ”

"Don't worry, Nick. I don't use dark magic, and you know, it comes at a great cost.

Moreover, not all magic against the soul is black magic, which is a misconception that people think that the first mention of these words is an evil undisguised dark wizard.

But in fact, in ancient times, whether it was the Celtic period, or ancient Egypt, or that turbulent era, there were studies of the soul, and perhaps they would have studied them more thoroughly than modern wizards have mastered now.

Because there is too much material that has disappeared into the long river of history.

Are all these people dark wizards? Soul magic is so notorious because too many dark wizards have studied it, and it is difficult to protect against soul magic by ordinary means.

Of course, what I use is not some evil dark magic, and even if I have the courage, I would not dare to use dark magic under the noses of Hogwarts and Dumbledore.

It's just a small spell that can only hurt my soul when I use it with a lot of power. ”

"I can feel that you're not lying to me, William. I would like to believe that what you say is true, because if you do what you say, maybe you can really solve this big problem that has plagued me for 500 years. ”

"How are we going to start experimenting, here?" Nick finally nodded in agreement.

"Of course not, even though no one has passed by here, I still don't want to experiment in this kind of place. I know why I know why the soul experiment is bad, but not everyone else thinks the same way. ”

William made up nonsense, in fact, what he was most afraid of was that the experiment outside would be discovered by Lao Deng, and the two had completely opposite attitudes towards soul magic.

Seeing that Lao Deng put all the books about souls in the forbidden area, William could guess that Lao Deng's attitude towards soul magic was definitely strongly opposed, and he didn't want a second Tom Riddle to appear.

"I have a safer place to experiment with no one to disturb. Have you ever heard of the Room of Requirement, Nick? William asked Nick, the only place he knew of where he could not be prying eyes on Dumbledore, where he had done a lot of not-so-shady things. (Transferring crowns, dissecting unicorns, and experiments on souls, etc., etc.)

But Dumbledore didn't know any of them.

"Of course, of course I know about that magical house. In fact, after becoming a ghost, it is difficult for this castle to keep secrets from you, because the walls that normally stand in your way will no longer be an obstacle to you.

Five hundred years is enough time for you to explore every corner of the castle, and in fact, I know a lot of secret passages leading to the outside of the school, how about you want to know William? ”
