Hogwarts in the shadows

Soon Madam Pomfrey came over.

Her attitude was obviously gentler than last time, and she obviously thought that this magic riot was not Hephis's fault.

She gently helped Hephis up, fed him the potion, and tidied his bedding and curtains so that he could have a good rest.

Somehow the news of Hefeth's hospitalization got out.

Hermione skipped class and came here, begging Madam Pomfrey for a visit.

After a lot of hard work, I finally managed to gain five minutes.

Hefeth was seen lying on the hospital bed, bandaged all over, unable to move or even speak.

Tears welled up in Hermione's eyes. She gently stroked Hermione's cheek with her little hand, her face full of heartache.

Hephis was at a loss, especially now, he couldn't speak or move his body.

There was really no way to comfort Hermione. I could only watch with heartache as tears fell from the corners of Hermione's eyes.

Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey showed up in time and patiently explained Hephis's situation, and then persuaded Hermione to leave reluctantly.

Afterwards, many classmates came to the medical wing who wanted to visit Hephis.

However, they were all blocked by Madam Pomfrey, and only Professor McGonagall was allowed to visit.

Professor McGonagall is still so gentle.

Hephis's body recovered at an amazing speed. In just one day, all the wounds on his body were healed.

Even Madam Pomfrey found it incredible.

At the joint request of Hephis and Hermione, Madam Pomfrey finally gave in and allowed Hermione to accompany him for a period of time every day.

Although others were not allowed to visit, they sent gifts one after another.

Theodore, Harry, Ron, and even the twins expressed their feelings.

However, the twins' gift was a toilet seat, which was thrown out directly by Madam Pomfrey.

Hagrid also came to visit Hefeth, but seeing that he was sleeping, he left quietly, leaving only the gift.

That was a drop of blood donated voluntarily by a unicorn. Drinking it could help a person recover quickly.

Of course, Hephes would not use it now, but would treat it as a treasure and keep it for future use.

But I owe Hagrid a big favor.

Unicorn blood has the function of extending life.

But the blood that is forced to be given is cursed.

Voluntarily donated blood can not only help people recover quickly, but also prolong their lives.

Unicorn blood is also an extremely expensive alchemical material, the kind that is priceless and out of market.

A drop of unicorn blood donated voluntarily can even be exchanged with top alchemists for their most precious alchemical items.

I don’t know how Theodore’s sales of unicorn hair and dragon claw bark are doing.

Since Hagrid didn't want any money, Hephis decided to improve his accommodation conditions after he was discharged from the hospital.

Then see if I can find some magical creatures to give to him.

A few days later, Hephis felt fully recovered and asked Madam Pomfrey to release him from the hospital.

This time, Madam Pomfrey agreed very readily. After a simple examination, she let him leave the hospital.

Of course, he couldn't give up on the silhouette.

After repeated thinking, Hefes felt that he had made an empiricist mistake.

This consequence was caused by using the experience of devouring the shadow of an ordinary person to measure the shadow of a wizard.

He is indeed stronger than those little wizards, but his strength is only in the ability of his shadow and the bonus to Transfiguration that the shadow brings.

His total amount of magical power is actually not much different from that of a first-grade wizard.

It's just that through a lot of study, he has mastered relatively more spells.

He could handle the physical strength, but not the magic power.

A young wizard's magical powers will naturally grow as he grows older.

This time he devoured four shadows that were close to adult wizards.

The total magic power of these shadows was more than ten times his own magic power, so he was tragically blown up.

But there are also great benefits. This experience has greatly increased his magic power.

I can't help but think of an old Chinese saying, "Without destruction, there is no construction. Only after destruction can one build."

After this lesson, Hephis became more cautious when taking action.

First he chose the dormitory where Draco was, and as usual, cut out the shadows of the four little wizards.

But this time he did not swallow it all in one breath. Instead, he swallowed a shadow first and carefully felt the changes in his body.

The pain from the body was much stronger than that of an ordinary person, equivalent to the reaction of three or four adults.

The magic power was also flowing rapidly, but it was still within his control.

He began to devour the shadows one by one, trying slowly.

When he devoured the third shadow, he found that his body was saturated and could not devour any more.

The magic power flows extremely fast, as if just a little more pressure would break through the limit.

Hephis calmed down, and the flow of magic power that was previously imperceptible became extremely clear.

He began to practice spells slowly, starting with the levitation spell.

The feather accelerated and rushed into the air, scaring Hephis.

In the following time, Hephis began his repeated experiments.

There was not much increase in intelligence. Two of the three eaten were from Goyle and Crabbe, and these two guys have never had a very high IQ.

He discovered that the way and direction of magic flowed differently for each spell.

A spell is like a starting switch, and a magic wand is more like a conductor, guiding the flow and trend of magic power, ultimately achieving the purpose of casting the spell.

This also means that if he can control the direction and trend of magic power, he can cast spells without spells or wands.

Moreover, although his magic power was not as obvious as the first time when he devoured the shadow, it still increased slightly.

He had never been able to feel this subtle change before.

He can now actively sense it, which means he can train his magic better.

Every time you use a large amount of magic power that exceeds your own capacity to exercise, your body will be able to store more and more magic power, and your magic power will naturally increase.

This made Hephis very excited.

Although the amount of magic power does not represent its power, more magic power means that he can last longer.

Which man can refuse longer?

Hephis was in an excited mood all night, practicing the spell continuously as if possessed.

It was not until the shadow reminded him that the time was up that he came to his senses and reluctantly let go of the shadow.

Hephis was dazed in class all day.

Fortunately, both professors mistook his condition as a result of not having fully recovered and therefore did not blame him too much.

They just gently told him to have a good rest and hoped that he would recover soon.

He finally made it to the night, but he still had to face Snape's confinement.

This time Hephis really didn't want to go because he felt that his magic power seemed to be overused.

However, he certainly could not escape Snape's confinement.

He gritted his teeth and entered Snape's office.

I just don't know if I can get another bottle of mana recovery potion from Snape.
