Chapter 162: The Magical Use of the Floating Spell
Levitation spell?
The professor is kidding!
What use is there for a simple spell like this that can be learned in first grade?
The students racked their brains but couldn't figure out how to use the levitation spell to detect magical items.
"In fact, small spells can often have a big effect," Sebastian smiled slightly, "Don't you believe it?"
"Here, each of you choose an object, and then use the levitation spell to float them in the air."
Hearing this, the little wizards were skeptical and raised their wands, pointing them at the objects in front of them.
"Wingardim Leviosa!"
All of a sudden, objects slowly flew up and floated steadily in the air.
Sebastian nodded.
The students were all very adept at performing this simple little spell and no one failed.
Otherwise, Sebastian would definitely start to chase people away.
"Very good, close your eyes and carefully feel the connection between your wands and the floating objects."
"That's your magic."
Harry sensed the invisible and intangible magical thread with familiarity.
He had experienced this feeling before when Sebastian taught him the levitation spell, so he immediately found that subtle feeling.
He closed his eyes quietly, waiting for Sebastian's next instruction.
Unlike other students, many of them clearly sensed the existence of magic for the first time and were talking about it a lot.
"So this is my magic power? It's amazing, why haven't I noticed it before?"
"Is it possible that I was too weak before, so you didn't even notice it."
Hearing the students' discussion, Sebastian smiled slightly.
This kind of thing is difficult to sense for students with weak magical perception talent.
Therefore, the professors at Hogwarts do not deliberately teach students to pay attention to the existence of magic.
After all, for little wizards, casting spells is as natural as drinking water and eating.
If the little ones with insufficient talents are forced to deliberately experience the existence of magic, it will cause trouble to them instead.
Only when the students' magic power grows to a certain level can they sense the existence of magic power.
Among the students present, those in grades six and seven already possessed the magical powers of adult wizards.
The only two underclassmen are also outstanding talents.
Therefore, this little trick of sensing magic is not difficult for them at all.
Seeing the relaxed expressions on everyone's faces, Sebastian spoke gently.
"Now, calm down, put aside all distractions, and focus all your attention on the magic connected to the object."
"Then, begin to imagine that magic as an extension of your arms."
"Carefully appreciate the feeling that the magic is giving you."
Hearing this, the young wizards immediately calmed down and began to experience it carefully.
"I feel it, I feel it. What I control is a necklace. My magic power will give me a very oppressive feeling."
"I have the same feeling, as if the magic is warning me to quickly stay away from the letter under my control."
"I don't feel depressed, but I feel a faint fluctuation of magic on the mirror, like some magic runes, but I can't recognize their effects."
"Really? Did you all feel it? My magic didn't give me any feedback, as if I was controlling just an ordinary object with the levitation spell."
"Don't be silly, is it possible that it is just an ordinary item?"
"How is that possible? I chose a skull. You told me it's a normal item."
Hearing this, the little wizards opened their eyes and looked at the skull floating in the air.
Huh?
Is this method inaccurate?
Otherwise, how could this guy not feel anything?
Hearing the students' discussion, Sebastian explained, "Don't doubt your magical perception."
“No matter how skilled an alchemist is, he cannot conceal the magical fluctuations of black magic and various curses on alchemical items.”
"If your magical perception tells you that the item in front of you does not have any magical fluctuations, then this item is not an alchemical item at all."
"Besides," Sebastian smiled, "this imitation skull is just a candlestick."
"According to the dark wizard, she chose the skull as the candlestick just to make it look cooler."
More cool?
Candlestick?
The little wizards felt a chill.
Is this the way a normal person thinks?!
It turns out that the dark wizard's brain is not normal.
"If you feel oppressed, it's your magic power that's warning you. It means the item in front of you is definitely not a good thing."
Sebastian's voice became much more serious.
"Once you feel that way, never touch that object."
"That item is either enchanted by dark magic or cursed. There is absolutely no third possibility."
"If there is no feeling of oppression, and you only sense ordinary magical fluctuations, then this means that this is an ordinary alchemical item."
"However, don't take it lightly. Many ordinary alchemical items often have some special effects."
"For example, a portkey. Some dark wizards like to carry a disposable portkey on them to escape the capture of the Aurors."
"For example, the crystal ball on the table looks like an ordinary crystal ball used for divination."
"But once touched, it will leave a subtle magical mark on the person's body."
"Then, the dark wizard can use some special means to track down those who have come into contact with this crystal ball."
Looking at the little wizards nodding their heads, Sebastian smiled with satisfaction.
"In fact, the focus of today's class is not on the levitation spell, but on magical perception."
"We are just using the characteristics of the levitation spell to familiarize everyone with the magical effects of magic perception."
"Professor," Cedric asked impatiently, "What other uses does magical perception have?"
"That's a lot. When you're brewing potions, it can help you make them more perfect."
“When making alchemical items, it can increase the success rate of engraving magic runes.”
“When casting a spell, you can control the power of the spell more freely and make your spell more accurate.”
"Let's put it this way. Every powerful wizard has a strong magical perception."
"Go for it!" Sebastian encouraged. "The key to becoming a powerful wizard has been handed into your hands."
"Work hard to train your magical perception."
Seeing that the little wizards' eyes were blazing with anger and they were so excited that they couldn't wait to roll up their sleeves and get to work, Sebastian quickly comforted them.
“Don’t aim too high.”
"In the future, when you can directly control your own magic power to sense magic without the help of a wand, then you will be considered to have just gotten started."
"Now, use the method you just learned to practice and judge the objects on the table again."
"Use your magical sense to carefully appreciate the differences between each item."
........................
The class passed quickly and the students packed up their things and prepared to go to eat.
"Professor," a little wizard with green all over his body called out hesitantly, "Can you make this green color go away?"
Although green looks cool, he doesn't want to stay like this forever.
"I'm sorry," Sebastian raised an eyebrow, "For all of you 'sacrificed' students, you will need to stay like this for at least a day."
"So please remember this feeling of 'sacrifice' so that you can always be vigilant in the future."
