Old Jack had a villa on the seaside at an unknown location. It was built on the edge of a huge rock pillar standing on the seaside. From a distance, it looked like a ruin. If you look closer, you will find that it is indeed a ruin.
The car made a "biu" sound and appeared in a cave that was transparent from front to back. Outside the cave, waves and seagulls flew together, the water was the same color as the sky, and the air was countless times better than in London.
The two got out of the Rolls-Royce, and the trunk of the car opened by itself. The suitcase flew out and floated in the air, following them out of the cave.
Outside the cave was a path built along the mountainside. They walked for a while and came to the edge of a cliff. Jack took out his wand from his sleeve and waved it. Countless huge stones flew from under the waves, and finally formed a bridge.
.
At the other end of the bridge are the ruins of a house next to a rock pillar. It can be seen that it used to be beautiful, but now only four walls are left, and it is empty inside, with only a statue of a wizard.
The two walked through a rock wall and came to a magnificent hall.
Every time Charles came, he would take a look at the wall on the right. According to Jack, there was a tunnel behind the wall that could lead to Gringotts' warehouse. However, this tunnel was completely abandoned and there was never any sound behind it.
There are many offices and other rooms upstairs behind the hall, which have now been converted into their rooms.
Charles led his suitcase to his room, which was empty and empty.
Two seconds after opening the suitcase, there is a soft and comfortable bed, a wardrobe as high as one person, a beautiful desk and chair, and a lamp on the table.
Jack has already decorated his room and prepared the kitchen.
"What do you want for lunch?" Charles asked as he opened the food cupboard, which was filled with bread, meat, vegetables, fruits and jams, as well as the two caramel puddings that Penny sent this morning.
.
Jack replied: "Eat whatever you want, I'll get some water first."
A water tank on the top of the kitchen followed him out. Charles was very impressed with the old man's ability to fly spells, and he made a "fresh water fly" towards the sea. The water in the tank was comparable to pure water.
Charles cut some bacon with no visible meat and a cucumber, fried the bacon and simply made a few sandwiches. When the water came back, he boiled water and made a pot of tea.
The two of them did not eat in the kitchen, but sat on the edge of the cliff. The waves kept beating against the rock pillars dozens of meters below their feet. There were many seagulls circling on the sea in the distance.
After Jack finished a sandwich, he asked Charles, "What do you think the nature of magic is?"
Charles had been thinking about this question for many years and immediately replied: "I think magic should be a kind of energy, just like electricity."
He is understanding magic in his own way. Why isn't Jack studying televisions and computers, Muggle creations, in his own way?
It's just that the old man couldn't repair the electrical appliances using "repair it as new". Fortunately, Charles learned it and mastered it well, and he could repair it. Otherwise, the money they made from the 1986 and 1990 World Cups would not be enough.
"That's right." Jack pointed to the path on the mountainside in the distance and said: "There, my first teacher, Professor Figo, told me that magic is essentially just a kind of power. The key lies in how people use what they have.
the power of."
"If you had the most powerful magical power in the world, what would you use it for?"
Charles thought for a while, looked at the sun in the sky and replied: "Achieve controllable nuclear fusion."
Jack was used to Charles's mouth popping up some Muggle words that he didn't understand from time to time, and his memory was incomplete. It seemed like a part was missing, and he didn't read it all, so he didn't understand the meaning of many words.
Charles didn't explain much. Ever since the old man broke the TV and couldn't fix it himself, whenever he didn't understand what he said about Muggles, he would get sulky and refuse to listen if he explained it in detail, and then go ask the neighbors.
.
"Then you have to work hard." Although Jack didn't understand what nuclear fusion was, it didn't stop him from talking.
Jack picked up another sandwich and said while eating: "In my experience, if you learn a few spells, you will be safe in Hogwarts."
Charles smiled and asked the old man: "Including Avada Kedavra?"
His attitude towards the three unforgivable curses is that he is afraid of death and wants to die. He is curious and wants to learn, but he is afraid of going to Azkaban to serve as dry food for the dementors. All things considered, he stays away from them.
Jack replied seriously: "Of course it includes, in addition to Avada Kedavra, there are also floating spells and throwing spells."
The corner of Charles's mouth twitched and he said calmly: "I don't want to go to Azkaban yet."
"It doesn't matter." Jack said lightly, "I know the place well and can ask the dementors to arrange a luxurious suite for you."
Charles grabbed all the remaining sandwiches on the plate and ate them while saying, "Then I'll have a good meal first."
Jack touched his head and said, "I'll buy you spider legs later."
Charles nodded immediately. Every time the old man went out to buy groceries, he always bought things that were not available in supermarkets. Among them, spider legs were one of his most acceptable ingredients. The neighbors, including the Dursleys, had not seen them before.
I also like to eat it even when it comes to raw materials.
The two had a full lunch and started magic training in the ruins atrium.
Jack waved his wand and chipped a stone from the mountain into a stone man, and then said: "When I was at Hogwarts, Professor Hecate told me that in fierce battles, the simplest ones are often the most useful.
."
Charles nodded in agreement.
Jack waved his wand at a relatively slow speed and cast a spell on the stone man: "Laweiahsa!"
The curse hit the stone man, and a purple light pillar emerged from the ground, pushing the stone man into the air twenty meters above the ground.
Jack said to Charles who was looking up: "This is the levitation spell I learned when I was in school."
Then he lifted the magic, the purple beam of light disappeared, and the stone man immediately fell.
"Yingardim Leviosa!" Just when the stone man was about to land, the old man finished casting the spell.
The stone man floats again, but there are no special effects compared to the last time.
"This is the current floating spell." Jack said to Charles. "This spell has been improved over the years, and the method has changed a little. After optimization and eliminating unnecessary parts, the cost is much smaller."
When he talked about the technique, he raised his hand in particular and demonstrated the final flick of his wrist when casting the improved version of the levitating spell.
"I followed the idea of improvement and made further optimizations." Jack cast a spell at Charles this time, "Hey Weisha!"
Charles suddenly felt that the gravity around him had disappeared, and his whole body was floating with no points of strength around him.
After Jack put him down, he said to him: "In battle, the floating spell can control the enemy, restrict the enemy's movement, and keep him in the air so that you can aim calmly."
Charles nodded in agreement: "This is indeed a good method, and it can also control a person's actions in disguise."
Jack asked him again: "Do you know the counterspell?"
Charles thought for a while and asked: "Are you talking about another spell to remove the curse?"
Jack shook his head and waved his wand to cast a spell on Charles: "Push to the street!"
Charles suddenly fell to the ground, feeling like a heavy mountain was pressing on him, unable to move a finger.
After breaking the spell, Jack explained: "This is a magic I learned when I was traveling before. In Muggle terms, 'Laweasa' means anti-gravity, and 'Push' means increasing gravity."
"I call these two curses that have the same principle but opposite effects as counter-curses, and the one you mentioned is called uncurse."
After getting up, Charles said angrily: "You didn't even tell me how I knew."
"I understand what you mean. These two magic spells indeed control gravity. They can also lift the enemy and smash it hard during battle."
"That's right." Jack helped him clean up the dust on his body, "There are many similar counter-curse combinations. After you finish learning this, you can learn the combination of flying spells and throwing spells."
