Chapter 458
John had expected it, so he wore a mask.
The professor of the magic house has not been around for too long.
But they are called mentors here.
After the instructor appeared, he immediately looked at the person next to John. The expression of a female instructor with long, straight black hair changed.
"Musashi?"
She looked at the man who re-entered the magic house in disbelief, with some emotion hidden in her eyes.
When Musashi saw the mentor, he had a complicated expression. He smiled with relief and said, "You have become a mentor, Shizuka."
Shizuka really wanted to say something to him.
An old man has a bald head with scars and a white beard that reaches his belly. The beard is tied up with a purple ribbon.
"Akino Musashi?" the old man coughed twice and asked.
When Musashi saw him, a trace of fear flashed through his eyes, and he said respectfully: "Principal Shige."
The old man looked as old as Dumbledore, but Dumbledore looked much healthier than him.
And this old guy looked like he was going to burp in the next second.
John stared at the old man and then at the scar on his forehead.
A total of six mentors appeared, and John spoke at this time.
"I'm here for magical exchanges." He glanced at the instructors and chuckled, "Please forgive me for coming without permission."
"Who are you?" A gentle-faced tutor looked at John with a sinister look and asked in English with a thick accent.
"You can call me Silverhand," John said lightly, "I can pay you."
Principal Zhong raised his hand to stop the instructor from continuing to speak. His cloudy eyes looked at John and said: "Johnny Silverhand, I have heard your name."
"Oh?" John said with a smile, "I thought your country's magical society had been closed for many years and would not know my name."
"Of course not," Principal Zhong said with a smile, "Your deeds have spread all over Europe. Even if the news is blocked, we can still get a glimpse of it."
"Our empire advocates the strong, and your ideas coincide with mine."
Principal Zhong looked at John and said: "Your Excellency Silverhand came to the magic house at this time. It doesn't seem like a visit."
"In the study of magic, it is always difficult to distinguish between day and night."
John smiled calmly and said: "As for what I said, it has never changed. I can pay the reward and hope to enter the magic house to read some literature and books."
Principal Zhong looked at John and tried to figure out the meaning of his words.
At the same time, he is calculating his own strength and that of the other party.
The magic house is currently in school, not counting the students, but there are six tutors here.
Johnny Silverhand's reputation in the European wizarding world is comparable to that of Grindelwald and Voldemort.
For such a person, turning against one another is not a good choice.
Moreover, the second king's friendship is also a very precious thing.
After thinking for a while, Principal Zhong said with a smile: "It's great to have friends coming from afar. Mr. Silverhand is coming from the west, so the magic house naturally needs to have enough etiquette."
He signaled the mentors to leave, glanced vaguely at Musashi, and invited John to come in.
John walked into the magic house, and Principal Zhong took him there personally.
When entering the atrium, Principal Shige suddenly said: "Musashi, you are a sinner and are not worthy of entering a sacred place."
When Musashi heard this, he immediately stopped and whispered, "I understand, Principal Shige."
Principal Zhong nodded, and John walked behind without changing his expression.
Musashi stopped and looked around in confusion.
The place is not small and the road is not short.
John chatted as they walked.
"Speaking of which, the relationship between wizards in your country and the Muggle world is not like that in the West."
John said casually: "In ancient times, you were called Onmyoji, serving the king of the country."
"Yes," Principal Zhong said proudly, stroking his beard, "Our country's royal family has a long heritage and is a lineage of gods for eternity. Their noble bloodline is unique in the world."
John glanced at the old man and showed absolute respect for the Muggle monarch.
A long time ago, the wizards in this country had a superior-subordinate relationship with their monarch, and this relationship still exists vaguely even now.
Their Ministry of Magic also has some kind of connection with the so-called royal family.
However, that connection began to disappear in modern times.
The influence of the royal family is also gradually decreasing, and even many wizards do not have the same superior and subordinate attitude towards the royal family at the beginning.
It's because of the rise of weapons that Onmyoji has become less important.
However, the old man seems to still adhere to the superior-subordinate relationship.

Chapter 482 Musashi’s Past
"To be honest, I feel honored to have you here."
Principal Chong took John into the courtyard with a beautiful cherry blossom tree.
The pink and white petals are breathtakingly beautiful in the moonlight.
The thick trunk and the hanging flowers.
Regardless of whether you are from the East or the West, seeing this scene will give you a sense of shock of primitive beauty.
"Not only because of your power, Lord Silverhand." Principal Zhong knocked on a door in the courtyard with the wand in his hand, "but also because of your amazing wisdom."
The door opened to both sides, revealing a place with numerous bookshelves.
This is a loft, also where the library is located.
In the attic, there were not only documents, but also many scroll-like things.
"I heard that most of Johnny Silverhand's things were created by you, Mr. Silverhand." Principal Zhong invited John inside.
John picked up a scroll and opened it. Inside was something written by the ancient Onmyoji, a wizard.
"It seems you know a lot, Principal Chong." John glanced at the contents of the scroll, which was about an ancient sealing spell.
Principal Zhong said with a smile: "Like you, we all like to study some things."
He stroked his beard, looked at John with cloudy eyes and said, "A friend of mine always praises your intelligence in front of me, which makes me look forward to it."
"Then your friend must be a powerful wizard." John saw a door in the attic on the first floor and asked, "What is that?"
The door was sealed tightly and had many magical runes attached to it.
Principal Zhong glanced at it and said with a smile: "It's nothing."
Apparently, he didn't want to say it yet.
John nodded in understanding, then asked if he could take a look from above.
"I will close the library for a while for Your Excellency," said Principal Shige, "so that my students will not disturb you."
"Then thank you, Principal Zhong." John didn't refuse.
Principal Zhong walked out of the library and closed the door.
John looked back at the closed door again, turned around and walked up to the second floor.
There are not only more books here than in Hogwarts, but most of them are things handed down from ancient times.
Looking out from the second floor, you can just see the exceptionally beautiful cherry blossom tree.
John got familiar with the library and picked out some ancient books. These were the books he focused on.
As he took up residence in the library, John was absorbing knowledge at a rapid pace.
The predecessor of the magic house was called Onmyojia, and its original prototype was Onmyoji.
So their magic is different from that of the West.
For example, those magics that can be placed on paper to create different powers are called talismans in the magic system.
It can be regarded as a relatively obvious difference between Eastern and Western wizards.
Similar to John's amulets, but their amulets are more used as seals.
Therefore, the sealing spell is a commonly used spell.
In the legend of the Hundred Ghosts that travel at night in this country, wizards use this method to deal with monsters that wander between life and death.
"Why does it sound like a ghost?"
John pondered for a moment and continued to open a scroll to watch.
This look is like seeing day from night.
His brain was like a dry sponge, greedily absorbing foreign intellectual arguments.
When the second dark night came, John's expression became solemn.
"This is very similar to what I guessed."
Looking at one of the volumes, it says that magic is based on spiritual power, and by stimulating emotions, magic can be stimulated to become active.
In this regard, John had tried to inspire the power of anger when training Malfoy.
The scrolls are all in the language of neon, but with John's learning ability, it is still very simple to learn a language.
He kept flipping through it, and his expression gradually became uncomfortable.
"experiment?"
He saw a book that was not a scroll and contained some kind of experiment.
John read it carefully and discovered various theories that this experiment was conducted as a gimmick to improve magic talent.
"It's a theory after all."
It records the use of electric shocks to stimulate the human brain, thereby stimulating stronger emotions and greatly increasing the magic power.
And that's not all, there are also various experiments to stimulate the wizard's talent.
Including but not limited to, like when Neville was a child, he was thrown from a high altitude to stimulate his magical talent.
Although wizards have a tough life, it is obviously impossible not to lose someone's life if they do this.
John closed the book and threw it aside. This thing was simply worthless.
He probably did this because he was out of his mind.
By activating magic talents through external stimulation, the best possible result is just the emergence of another madman-like wizard.
"Azkaban will wave to you."
The third day.
John found records about bond magic.
This thing is like Harry's 'mother's love', it's hard to say that Harry didn't learn from it.
This is an ancient magic that allows those involved to be promoted through the bonds of friendship.
Similar to the protagonist of an anime, he roars and talks, and finally says, "Don't underestimate our bond." There is a high probability that he can deal explosive damage.
John is not the protagonist of the anime. What he wants to learn from is the bond in it.
This magic that does not require blood connection, but is based on emotional connection, took him a day to study.
John had not left the attic for four days.
He didn't understand anything outside.
Musashi was imprisoned.
