Chapter 123: I made your loyalty spell
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Les in a daze, Daphne couldn't help but ask.
Les told Daphne his speculation.
"Huh? But in this case, those little wizards who don't go to Hogwarts..."
"They are not under the control of the Ministry of Magic, are they?" Les told the truth in one sentence.
There are only two channels for young wizards to learn magic: either be educated by their parents at home, or go to a magic school. If neither can be achieved, an extremely miserable future awaits them.
In the land of Britain, no one can resist the temptation of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry - this is the world's top magic school. As long as you have magical talent, you can receive an admission notice if you are born in this land. .
An analogy with Muggles is that as long as you have a permanent residence card, you can go to Harvard—it’s tuition-free. With such conditions, how sick are the minds of people who choose to study at home?
Therefore, it is difficult to say what the composition of those guys who live in the UK but do not go to Hogwarts is. Most likely they are marginalized people in the magical world or even wandering wizards and dark wizards. It is very difficult to expect them to abide by the law. Difficulty. The Ministry of Magic doesn't have any hope for them and will only arrest them after they commit crimes.
"That's it." After listening to Les's analysis, Daphne felt that what Les said was quite reasonable, but she didn't care much about traces, which had almost nothing to do with her. She was more concerned about Les' summer vacation. Will you come to Greengrass Manor for vacation?
After receiving the affirmative answer, she was completely unable to suppress the tendency of the corners of her mouth to move upward. She took out a piece of parchment with writing on it and handed it to Les.
"This is the address of my summer resort. Remember it and don't tell anyone else." Daphne winked at Les, "My family's estate has been subject to -"
"The Loyalty Charm, right?" Les glanced at Daphne and felt quite emotional in his heart. He didn't expect that this little girl was even willing to tell him this.
A building protected by the Loyalty Charm cannot be found by anyone other than the secret keeper. After the secret keeper dies, everyone who knows the secret will become the secret keeper. Therefore, being willing to tell you the address of the house is equivalent to giving you the key to the house. A portion is an act of extreme trust.
"Do you also know the Loyalty Curse?" Daphne's surprise only lasted for a moment, and then she was relieved: he knew these things and it seemed to be a matter of course.
"Of course, how could I not know this spell!" Les said with a smile. What he didn't say was that this spell was improved by a few of them.
Initially, they wanted to add the Loyalty Charm to the defensive magic attached to Hogwarts Castle, but later they gave up the plan after considering that the spell was very complex and too easy to break.
The Red Loyalty Spell will hide the location of a building as a secret in the soul of a living person, using it as a medium to generate magic with extremely powerful defense. As long as the secret keeper does not disclose the address, outsiders will never be able to find the hidden building.
The protective ability of this spell is extremely powerful, but also extremely weak. It will be ineffective as soon as the secret is leaked, so the fewer secretaries who know the specific location, the better. A place like the school castle where people come and go is actually not very suitable for attaching the Loyalty Charm.
"The Red Loyalty Curse is actually a combination of contract magic and space magic. When casting the spell, you must first cut out the space around the protected house and hide it in the space cracks. At this time, the house and the outside world are actually no longer in the same space. It's in. The only bridge connecting the house with the outside space is its 'address', which we can also regard as the 'key' of space. This key is sealed in the human soul by contract magic." Les explained to Daphne. Learned the principles of the Chidan Loyalty Charm.
The optimization provided by Les and others at that time was to simplify the casting process of the Red Loyalty Curse and strengthen the confidentiality of the "key" so that ordinary spells and potions could not extract the address from the secret person.
Daphne: It sounds awesome!
Les glanced at Daphne, who was confused, and thought that only an ancient pure-blood family could have such a foundation and be able to cast a loyalty charm on such a large manor.
The larger the house area, the more difficult it is to cast a spell like the Red Bold Loyalty Curse. It would be extremely difficult for an ordinary wizarding family to cast a Loyalty Charm on a small cabin. But the Greengrass family was able to cast a spell on a manor directly. The magician they hired was quite powerful, and they didn't know how much it would cost. It was worthy of their praise. It's the wealthy Greengrass family...
and many more!
Les glanced down at the address of Daphne's house, and then he couldn't hold it any longer: he knew this address because he had cast the loyalty spell on this manor, and he had asked for it, and the money was confiscated.
["I think this spell has stabilized and no further optimization is needed." Ravenclaw handed a roll of parchment to Slytherin.
"But we have only tried it with cabins so far. If the scope is expanded to the entire school, the situation may be different." Salazar frowned.
"Aren't there many of your students who own several manors? Why not experiment with them." Ravenclaw gave his own suggestion.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Teacher, this is my promise. I will never break into Gryffindor Tower without permission again." Adrian limped in with a roll of parchment, and then found his teacher and Raven Professor Crowe was staring directly at him.
Adrian suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that they knew about Helena's appointment to go to the astronomy tower to watch the stars at night? No, I really want to learn some knowledge about astronomy this time. Where is the trust between people? !
"Do you want to add a Loyalty Charm to your family's manor?"
"Teacher, am I really just... huh?" Adrian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the teacher wanted to experiment with his own things again!
"Teacher, this spell won't blow up my house, right? Last time -"
"The past was before, and the present is now. Professor Ravenclaw personally participated in the improvement of this spell. You have to believe her!" Sarah looked at her students and said seriously.
Adrian:…
It’s precisely because she improved it that I don’t trust it!
Ravenclaw cleared his throat: "If Mr. Greengrass doesn't want to, we won't force him, but in this case..."
Before she could finish her words, Adrien agreed. His instincts told him that it would be best not to let the Ravenclaw professor finish her sentence. 】
Les sighed and turned the note in his hand into a ball of ashes.
"I will keep this secret."
'Just like it was for a thousand years before. '
