Chapter 80 The Killing Curse (Part 1)
PS: Please vote for recommendation
From the outside, this is just a very ordinary parchment, but Mike felt an ominous aura from it. Mike had felt this ominous aura before on the bookshelf dedicated to black magic in the restricted area. However, the aura on the parchment was much weaker than the aura on the black magic bookshelf. If Mike had not experienced a great increase in the strength of his magic perception after the adventure during the summer vacation, he probably would not have felt it.
If Mike guessed correctly, this parchment must be related to black magic. Judging from the nature of this naughty kid Thorfin who stole his family's genealogy, it is not surprising that he stole the black magic recorded in the family.
Seeing that Mike seemed to be very interested in the parchment, Dolphin hurriedly said, "I stole this from my father's study. How is it? Is it valuable?"
"Huh? Your father's study?" Mike said doubtfully, "It should be hidden very well, right?"
"No, this parchment is placed in the drawer of my father's desk. He uses it as absorbent paper to prevent tobacco from getting damp." Dolphin said.
Mike was a little disappointed when he heard this. A piece of parchment used to prevent tobacco from getting damp would not be a valuable thing. But holding on to the only remaining glimmer of hope, Mike opened his magic perception vision and looked at the parchment.
Under the magic perception vision, Mike was surprised to find that some handwriting gradually emerged on the parchment. These handwritings looked completely different from the general magic aura. They were a very ominous black color. Mike could still see it clearly with his super high magic perception. The black aura on the handwriting was still dissipating.
Perhaps because it was too long ago, the handwriting on the parchment was very blurry. Mike squinted his eyes and carefully identified it for a long time before he could see the content of the first line of words on it.
This is a language that Mike has never seen before. Although the main body is still English letters, the arrangement and combination are completely different from the English used by modern people. But strangely, although Mike did not recognize these words, the meaning of these words appeared in his mind by itself.
The Killing Curse-Avada Biting the Big Melon
was written on it.
Mike felt that the hairs on his body stood up. This surprise was too big. But he was not completely overwhelmed by joy. He began to look down quickly. He was very worried about whether the content on this parchment was well preserved.
Fortunately, although this parchment had experienced a lot of damage such as blisters and rat bites, the parts that recorded the method of releasing the Killing Curse were still relatively intact. At least Mike could still recognize the meaning of the words on it when he was fully aware of it.
Mike quickly took out a pen and a notebook from the bag of the traceless extension spell and copied down the contents of the parchment. However, since the contents were all written in an unknown language, Mike had many problems in writing according to the meaning that automatically emerged in his mind.
After copying it several times in a row, Mike gave up this useless behavior. Learning magic is a rigorous behavior. Any deviation may cause the spell to fail. Especially for black magic, if the release fails and causes backlash, it will cause serious harm to the caster.
Carefully put the parchment into the bag of the traceless extension spell, Mike waved his wand and directly poured out all the remaining things in the cloth pocket. Since this piece of parchment can show handwriting under the perception of magic, then are these garbage here also special?
Sure enough, in Mike's magical perception field, there are a few items in the pile of garbage that are faintly emitting magical auras.
But when Mike found these items one by one, he was disappointed to find that most of these items were also parchments, and they were tattered by rats, and the contents on them could not be recognized at all.
"Do you have any more parchments like this?" Mike asked Dolphin with the last glimmer of hope.
"No...no, these parchments are all I have. Are you...are you satisfied?"
Mike exhaled deeply, threw a cloth bag full of gold galleons to Dolphin and said, "There are 200 gold galleons in it, take away the rest of the garbage."
Dolphin took the bag, his face was smiling so much that his eyes could hardly see, and he hurriedly sorted out all the items on the ground and left Mike's dormitory.
Seeing that Dolphin had left the dormitory, Mike waved his wand and released a warning spell on the dormitory door. After confirming the safety of the door again and again, he couldn't wait to look at the parchment.
He was indeed the chosen one. After disappearing for so long, the lucky golden finger finally activated again. Knowing that he urgently needed a powerful direct damage spell, he used this method to send the killing curse to himself. Although the contents of other parchments were all unrecognizable, the killing curse was enough.
The green light in the forbidden forest last year has become a shadow in Mike's heart, often accompanied by an endless cold breath in his dreams. The reason why Mike risked being discovered and entered the forbidden book area was largely due to the fear of the killing curse.
The more afraid he was, the more he wanted to have this power. At this time, Mike's hands holding the parchment were shaking unconsciously.
When Mike finished reading the contents of the parchment, it was already dark outside. He had read it for so long without realizing it.
Although he was already hungry, Mike's heart was burning, and he had no desire to eat at all. After reading the parchment, Mike finally had a more detailed understanding of the killing curse.
The requirements for the strength of magic power for the Kedavra Curse are not high. A large number of adult wizards in the wizarding world can successfully release it after a period of learning.
Even with Mike's current level of magic power, he has already met the requirements for releasing the Kedavra Curse. This is the horror of the Kedavra Curse. It is amazingly lethal and easy to learn. It is no wonder that the Ministry of Magic has listed it as one of the three unforgivable curses. This thing is like a gun. If it is not controlled, frequent shootings are inevitable. The wizarding world has a sparse population and cannot withstand such a torment.
Compared with its requirements for magic power, it actually has stricter requirements for emotions.
The caster must have a strong desire to kill the other party in order to successfully release the Avada Kedavra Curse. This is not too difficult for Mike. He has killed countless people in his previous life, and his heart has long been trained to be as hard as iron.
After confirming that he can learn the Kedavra Curse, Mike rushed to the Room of Requirement. He couldn't wait to start the experiment.
However, what Mike didn't know was. As he walked through the Ravenclaw common room, a pair of light blue eyes as beautiful as lake water were staring at him silently in the corner.
