It turns out that most humans are always too optimistic about the future.

It's like Link always thought he would soon master Occlumency.

However, reality gave him a loud mouth, and the soon-to-be retreat in his mouth lasted for several months, until one morning when the snow and ice covering Hogwarts Castle began to melt, and he finally received a prompt from the system:

【Occlumency LV1 has been obtained!】

Looking at the golden subtitles that stayed on his retina, Link's mood was a little complicated.

It's uncomfortable that I spend too much time on Occlumency.

But you can't blame Link too much for that.

Because his confidence in how quickly he can learn Occlumency, it actually comes from his proficiency in meditation.

In his mind, he was already proficient in entering a meditative state, and learning Occlumency should be a matter of course.

However......

However, there are actually advantages to extending the retreat time, for example, Link's Blade Shadowless was promoted to LV3 by him during this time.

This has made Link's combat effectiveness a great improvement, because compared to LV2's Blade Shadowless, the Blade Shadowless that has been upgraded to LV3 has increased several times in terms of power and controllability.

Especially in terms of controllable force, after experimenting, Link even found that he could control the Bladeless Spell to turn to a certain extent.

Although the amplitude of this turn is not very large, it is still useful as a means of surprise attack.

But that's not all, what really makes Link happy is the side effect of Occlumency.

Almost at the moment when the Occlumency information popped up, a large number of Super Sense Spell experience +1 prompts popped up on the system, followed by the news that the Super Sense Spell was upgraded.

【Super Sense Spell LV2 obtained!】

The corners of Link's mouth slowly raised.

As he expected, LV2's Super Sense Spell actually couldn't support Link to open it in battle, after all, under such intense activity, Link couldn't suppress the intense load on the brain brought by the Super Sense Spell.

But now he has the absolute sanity of the Occlumency, and the achievement is different.

"Whew!"

With a deep breath of turbid air from Link, a cold cloud of magic rose from his heart, quickly permeating his brain, freezing all his emotions.

Link's originally agitated expression quickly turned indifferent, and the pair of divine eyes became even more hollow and deep.

And then, a splash of blue came to his eyes.

Occlumency's Occlumency and Super Sense Spell are on!

"Boom!"

Link only felt a blast in his brain that looked like an engine starting, and the next moment, he realized that the world in front of him had changed.

Dust in the air, the sound of your own heartbeat, the beating of candles on your bedside table......

Everything became clear.

Link even found a series of footprints on the floor that were so faint that they were barely visible.

The footprints were only a few centimeters long, a bit like a child's footprint, but Link knew that their owners could only be house-elves, who would come to the students' dormitories every once in a while to provide housekeeping services to the students.

This is not good news for house-elves.

Because the rule of house-elves is to serve their masters in a subtle and silent way without being detected as much as possible, if the house-elves find out about this, Link reckons that they will cry to death, and maybe self-harm to punish themselves.

Of course, none of this is important to Link, the most important thing is that Link also saw a faint layer of eerie white light on the wooden door of the dormitory!

This discovery made Link's heart beat faster.

All of Hogwarts' dorm doors are enchanted with protective enchantment, which prevents outside burglars from infiltrating them.

Of course, this hasn't happened for hundreds of years.

In normal times, their main job is to prevent boys from entering the girls' dormitories, which can cause unspeakable things to happen.

Bizarrely, however, girls are allowed to enter and exit the boys' dormitories freely, which is said to have come from Godric Gryffindor's proposal, which Link complained about for a long time.

Of course, none of this matters, the important thing is that Link seems to be able to see the protective magic on the wooden door of the dormitory!

Link tentatively reached out to the white light, and then he felt some kind of energy caressing his fingertips.

This discovery caused a faint smile to appear on Link's face, which had become indifferent to the Occlumency.

Because being able to perceive the magic aura also means that many trigger-type magic mechanisms will be ineffective for Link in the future, and at the same time, many forbidden places Link can also try to break through, such as some ancient secret rooms, and the forbidden book area of Hogwarts.

Slowly exiting the Occlumency Technique and the Extrasensory Charm, Link's face was completely covered with a smile.

The effect of the combination of the Super Sense Spell and the Brain Occlumency Technique greatly exceeded his expectations, and although he had not yet tried it, the blessing of absolute sanity and super perception made Link feel that his current combat power was at least twice as strong as before.

With this power, Link is more confident in the plan he is about to execute.

The only problem now is that Quirrell has been too honest lately, and he hasn't been making trouble with Link as expected in the past few months, but has shown a little fear of coming into contact with Link.

And it was clear that he had already started searching for unicorns in the Forbidden Forest during the Christmas holidays, but Arkham had not found any trace of him in the past few months, which gave Link no chance to do so.

(Unbeknownst to Link, the night Quirrell first invited Link to the office, Snape, who received the news, found Quirrell, who was still in the office at the time.) I don't know what both of them did in the office, though. However, according to George and Fred at Hogwarts, Snape spent two hours in Quirrell's office that night, and during those two hours, they could hear Quirrell's intermittent cries for mercy. ）

But it's also good news for Link.

After all, Link is actually not afraid that Quirrell will not appear in the Forbidden Forest, you must know that Quirrell's magic Voldemort alone will not last long, for the sake of his own survival, he will inevitably force Quirrell to go to the Forbidden Forest to find the blood of a unicorn to renew his life.

Thinking so, Link finally pushed open the door of the dormitory with a smile on his face.

Now, it's time to say hello to everyone!
