Hogwarts: This wizard wants to make progress too much

Penelope didn't refuse and sat directly next to Cassandra and the others, picking up a piece of chocolate from the table and eating it.

… …

Today was the day Hogwarts broke for the holidays. For the past few evenings, Ethan had been helping Cassandra and the others practice the Patronus Charm.

It wasn't until last night that Penelope completed the second stage of the Patronus Charm.

This was accomplished under the pressure of seven Dementors, and the form was a giant eagle with three pairs of wings.

Without a doubt, this was the image of a Thunderbird.

Moreover, as soon as it appeared, it severely injured the seven Dementors that Ethan had been using for Penelope's practice, allowing them to retire and recuperate early.

This also proved that after taking Magic Blood and possessing the bloodline of a magical creature, the form of the Patronus Charm would change, and Ethan's situation was not an isolated case.

This made Cassandra and the others work even harder.

Under the heavy pressure of the Dementors, they all made some progress. For example, Cassandra could release a wisp of silvery-white mist.

If it weren't for the high-pressure environment of the Dementors, Ethan and Cassandra would never have learned anything in their lives.

Hermione's progress was much better than Cassandra's group. Although she hadn't reached the second stage yet, she was almost there.

Now she was being trained by Ethan alone and was no longer with Cassandra and the others.

"The follow-up training for the Patronus Charm will have to wait until the holidays. For now, let's just have a good Christmas."

"Yeah, I don't want to run into that thing during the holiday."

Inside the Hogwarts Express carriage, Cho Chang nodded, agreeing with Ethan's view.

Dementors just looked unlucky. Running into them during the holidays would probably bring bad luck for the whole year.

Cassandra and the others had no objections to this.

During this period, they had been practicing the Patronus Charm with Dementors all day, which made it difficult for them to rest well. They were in a daze every day and often woke up in the middle of the night in fright.

It would be good to rest now.

"By the way, Ethan, didn't you say you could give us a Portkey to your house?"

"Is it ready now?"

Hermione suddenly thought of something and said quickly.

According to her family's rules, it would be difficult to go to Ethan's place for Christmas this year.

Either she would spend it at home, or she would apply to stay at school and spend it at Hogwarts. But once she returned home, her old father would definitely not agree to her running outside.

If she wanted to meet Ethan, the best thing to use was a Portkey, but Ethan would still have to send her back.

There was no way around it. She wasn't old enough to learn Apparition, and Ethan wouldn't teach her that magic.

"This is the Portkey. It was done more than a month ago. You can come over whenever you want now."

Ethan directly took out five strings of bracelets. The largest polished red agate in the middle was the Portkey.

This wasn't made by Ethan, but Ethan taught the method of making Portkeys to Hachi and asked him to make them when he was at home.

House-elves originally had strong spellcasting abilities and could learn many of the wizard's methods, so Ethan taught him how to make Portkeys.

Anyway, Ethan had been studying at Hogwarts for so long, and at home, Hachi had nothing to do except clean.

This time could be fully utilized, and the making of Portkeys was very time-consuming.

Hachi didn't finish and send them until a few days after Halloween.

So after having a house-elf, you have to make good use of it.

"Then we'll accept them."

Hermione immediately took a string and put it on her wrist.

Penelope, Cho Chang, and Luna did the same.

Ethan put the last string on Nagini's hand. Although she always followed him, she had to have what others had.

As for Cassandra, the first Portkey Ethan made was taken by Cassandra's mother and given to Cassandra.

Then the group started chatting, mainly about how to spend the Christmas holidays, and all the interesting things that happened to themselves and their families during past Christmases.

Time passed quickly.

As the sky darkened, the train arrived at King's Cross Station.

After everyone got off the train, Ethan greeted Hermione, Luna, and Cho Chang, then took Cassandra and the others and activated the Portkey, returning directly to their home in Godric's Hollow.

Hermione and the others were picked up by their families. Ethan had seen them several times, so there was no need to familiarize himself any further.

Returning home, Hachi was already waiting here, and dinner was ready.

[Thank you, boss, for the monthly ticket, thank you, boss! ] .

Chapter 184: Biological Alchemy

In the early morning, Ethan woke up from the big bed at home. The air was filled with the scent of heather, and on both sides were Penelope and Nagini.

At this moment, they had a satisfied smile on their faces, but they had no intention of waking up.

Ethan didn't disturb them either.

After taking Magic Blood, the two girls' physical fitness had greatly improved, especially Nagini, whose stamina was now quite strong.

If it weren't for Ethan's bloodline sublimation and the BUFF of physical fitness enhancement, it would have been really difficult to end last night.

Carefully removing the arms and legs that were resting on him, Ethan went to the coat rack, where there were brand new clothes.

After changing his clothes and washing up, Ethan left the door and gently closed it.

Cassandra was sitting on the sofa. Hearing the sound from the stairs, she turned her head quite unhappily, glanced at Ethan, and continued to look back at the magic book in her hand.

Cassandra was already used to it, but she hated why she still had a few years before she could come of age.

Her height had already met the standard, and her front armor had a bit of undulation now, but she was still too young.

Ethan could naturally see that Cassandra had resentment.

Immediately, he took her to the dining room, and Hachi brought over breakfast with great foresight.

Ethan also personally fed Cassandra breakfast, which took nearly an hour, including mouth-to-mouth feeding, before he coaxed Cassandra.

At this time, Ethan felt that he was too scum, but there was no way. He had come to this world, and good girls could not be let down!

After breakfast, Ethan spent some time with Cassandra, looking through magic books before leaving the house.

The Dementor cloaks he had ordered a few days ago had already been delivered, and he had captured two more since then, bringing the total to seven.

He originally intended to send them to Hogwarts, but Ethan figured that he would be on vacation soon, so he didn't bother.

Now, Ethan was preparing to retrieve the Dementor cloaks and conduct an experiment to see if his hypothesis would succeed.

If successful, he would have a backbone for his makeshift team.

Unlike now, besides himself and Little Tom, there weren't many capable fighters to choose from.

The Slythe Organization was also similar; the members responsible for poaching outside had some strength, but in reality, they couldn't even compare to Aurors. Only Montgomery Abbott, the former deputy leader who was later subdued by Little Tom, had the strength of an elite Auror. Overall, they were still too weak.

Relying entirely on himself and Little Tom to maintain the facade was completely unacceptable!

It was a bit embarrassing, and still far behind Voldemort's team in Azkaban.

Using Apparition, he directly arrived at Dennis's base in Knockturn Alley, where Dennis was already waiting.

"Boss, the Dementor cloaks are ready. I'll bring them to you right away."

Dennis greeted Ethan at the first opportunity, with a humble smile on his face.

Dennis was now very grateful for his initial choice. If he had hesitated even a little because of Ethan's age, his grave would probably be overgrown with grass by now.

How could he be like this, managing the European market because he joined early enough?

Life was truly quite comfortable, with money and power. Even Jim, the current leader of the Slythe Organization, the 'turncoat big brother,' had to treat him politely now.

"Mm!"

Ethan was satisfied with Dennis's attitude.

When this guy knelt down and kissed his shoes, Ethan knew he didn't have much ability, but he knew how to read the situation, so Ethan thought he might be useful and kept him around.

Now he was doing well, just lacking in strength.

Soon, under Dennis's arrangement, seven suitcases were brought up. After being captured, they were all held in separate confinement.

After Ethan directly stored them away, he left the base.

Ethan, wearing a Dementor cloak, was quite eye-catching on the streets of Knockturn Alley. The surrounding wizards frequently cast gazes of awe, admiration, fear, and so on.

Ethan didn't care about these and went directly to the Wiccan Society's base here, a detached small building. Of course, various magic spells were set up inside, and the space was not small.

It used to be the lair of a group of dark wizards who specialized in illegal activities in Knockturn Alley, but after Little Tom wiped them out, he designated this place as the base.

"Tom, well done!"

Before Ethan arrived, someone had already seen him and returned to the base to notify Tom.

During this time, the Wiccan Society was steadily expanding, and the members numbered around fifty.

"This is all my duty."

Tom showed a forced smile. He was, after all, not Voldemort, but a special existence after a fragment of soul gained life.

Although he once had ambition and pride, he had been silent as a diary for decades, and now that he had gained life and a body.

He cherished everything now and didn't want to return to those days of the past.

Even listening to Ethan's instructions had become a habit during this time.

If his strength was stronger than Ethan's, he naturally wouldn't be like this; he would have taken revenge long ago and taken Ethan as a dog instead of being Ethan's dog.

But now there was no way. He couldn't beat him, and his life was still in his hands. If he wasn't honest, what else could he do?

Seeing this, Ethan didn't say anything more. After patting Tom's shoulder, he went directly to the laboratory inside the base.

Little Tom was now frequently doing some magic research, so naturally there was such a place.

Taking out a box that Dennis and others had just given him, he directly opened it. Inside was a transparent cage, the same type that Ethan had seen and used to imprison the Dementor cloak on himself.

He directly opened the cage door, and a Banishing Charm was immediately cast, and the Dementor cloak immediately became obedient and floated onto the workbench.

Seeing this scene, the Dementor cloak worn by Ethan couldn't help but tremble. It knew exactly what would happen next.

Fortunately, it had followed the boss early, otherwise, it would have been difficult to escape such a fate.

He picked out a goblin, harvested its life, and turned its soul into a blade.

Ethan took a deep breath before preparing to start.

He was more cautious and careful than when he was wielding a knife on a Dementor, because it was not easy to get Dementor cloaks.

As the Dementor cloak left on the workbench became smaller and smaller, Ethan's movements became more and more gentle.

A layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, all brought about by high concentration.

"Has it been half an hour?"

Looking at the already broken blade in his hand, Ethan realized that so much time had passed.

When using a knife on a Boggart, Ethan had not exceeded ten minutes.

After sacrificing another goblin, Ethan took the blue blade and continued the task that had not yet been completed.

Fortunately, Ethan succeeded this time before the blade broke.

Only two black, thin, cloth-like things remained on the table, permeated with some black aura.

Like the Boggart and the Dementor, Ethan still sacrificed the goblin's spirit, replenishing its vitality to prevent it from dissipating.

Afterward, Ethan began to draw an alchemy array on the ground, the type of life alchemy.

There were quite a few creatures in this area, such as Hagrid's textbook for this semester, 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them,' which used relatively simple life alchemy.

The most famous are the Sphinx in Egypt and the Chimera in Greece, which were specially created using alchemy to guard treasures.

Now Ethan was engraving the latter alchemy array.

Ethan had found relevant information from Nicolas Flamel.
