《Vampire in the Harry Potter World(Hiatus)》Chapter 19 Learning Magic

Advertisement

Inside Malfoy Manor, the third-floor training room. Kai was standing with his wand out, he was currently trying to cast a transfiguration spell. He was trying to turn a piece of parchment into a piece of wood, however, the energy required for the spell was currently too much for him when the cost was multiplied by 4 when he was using the wand.

Kai had been learning theory for the past few days- basics of magic casting for the past days, however, he hadn't had any practical practice. In the last hour, Kai had finally been allowed to attempt his first spell, a type of transfiguration.

Tom had taught him that to learn magic you must use the accurate wand movements along with the spells, as well as the correct amount of energy, otherwise, the spell would either explode and hurt you. Or it simply wouldn't form if you didn't put enough energy into it.

Kai tried to turn the parchment into wood and was constantly failing, Tom who had seen Kai's progress had left the room after seeing him fail constantly. It gave Tom a satisfying feeling seeing him finally fail at magic, after seeing him succeed at everything else.

Kai then stopped using his wand and activated his runic eyes. He then tried to utilise the transfiguration spell, through his eyes. The parchment turned into wood and Kai discovered that with his eyes he could use magical energy in a higher efficacy than with the wand along with greater precision and control.

Tom came in after what Kai assumed was half an hour and saw the parchment shaped piece of wood lying on the table. He told Kai that the transfiguration was merely an exercise and the real spell that he would be learning would be the spell Accio (the summoning spell).

Tom showed Kai the spell's wand movements as well as haying the spell's name out loud. He summoned the Gaunt ring to him and put it on. "To summon something takes a little bit of magical energy, but the further it is from the summoner the more it increases the spell's energy requirement.

Kai tried to activate the spell with his eyes after he stood up and walked to the other side of the room, with his back turned to Tom, he still had the wand hi his hand however it was there for and act. He tried to summon the wood that was previously the parchment. He shouted "Accio wood" with the wood's appearance clearly in his head.

The wood flew across the room to Kai's open hand and he clenched it shut when he felt the wood land on his palm and quickly deactivated his eyes. He turned around with triumph painted all over his face.

Tom's face was cold and expressionless, and he said "that is enough practical training for today, practice it well and I will see how well you perform tomorrow.

Now I will be teaching you some theoretical knowledge, something that only Dumbledore and I know of. The only reason I'm teaching you this is because you have almost fulfilled your side of the deal so quickly.

Most wizards try to understand why I am so powerful, the answer is partially because of how intelligent I am, but the other reason is because I understand how to truly use spells. I understand how they are built, you may argue that there are people that create their own spells.

However, that isn't true they merely extract a part of a certain spell and merge it with another part, they combine spells, but they don't create spells from scratch. To truly understand a spell, you must understand how it works how it is built and what makes up a spell.

A spell is made up of a formation and a formation is built up of many magical circles. A magical circle is made by putting runes together in a certain order. For example, you can think of runes as letters and the magical circles are words. The formation is the paragraph and the complete spell is the page.

Do you understand? Most wizards merely use the pages and don't try to understand the letters or the words. Now the only downside of this type of magic is that it uses almost all of your magic reserves to cast the spell."

Kai asked, "how many runes are there?" " There is a total of 36 runes" "please can you cast a spell that uses the runes right now I would like to see it."

Tom looked at Kai with an annoyed look but said "I will cast a small spell, first Accio lock." A padlock came spiralling into Tom's hand and he showed it to Kai. "Do you see the lock here it's almost locked and enchanted to the same level as Gringotts vaults are. Alohamora!" Tom shouted.

Kai had activated his runic eyes quickly and looked at the spell and saw the key that he had seen earlier at the Potter's cottage. However, this time he focused on it and tried to see into it. He managed to see past the key shape that was in fact made up of formations.

Each formation was a part of the key, the crucial parts- the bow (handle), the shaft and the bit. Each formation was made of tiny magic circles that had many layers inside of each circle. The layers had many different runes that were divided into each layer.

All of what Kai saw happened in a split second, and he looked at the Alohamora spell that entered the padlock and unlocked the lock before disappearing.

Tom felt 10% of his Magical energy disappear, but he felt it was worth it when he saw the look that was on Kai's face. He then looked at Kai and told him that it was time for them to go as it was approaching the time that Harry would be fully turned. Kai looked up at Tom and quickly walked out of the room.

Kai went to the van and got a few blood bags from the blood and put it inside his new favourite magical item- the storage bag. Normally the bag would have been useless for most wizards because their bodies couldn't lift heavy items and thus the bag would have been limited by their physical capabilities.

Kai, however, was different, he had a near limitless physical body, so he didn't have to worry about his strength and instead had to limit it most of the time.

Kai stored the blood in the bag and put it on his back before equipping the overcoat over his body and bag so that it wouldn't be destroyed when he would be running. Kai told Tom that they would meet up at 4 Privet Drive. Kai had already told Tom the address.

Tom was worried about the spell that protected Harry from him as it would be troublesome to try and break it. Kai told him that the spell would only stop him if he would have any bad intentions towards Harry. Tom accepted the explanation and apparated towards Privet Drive.

(I just want to point out that apparition isn't teleportation, it simply moving incredibly fast.)

Kai also set out towards Privet Drive he estimated that it would take him around 3-5 minutes to get there. While he was running he was also trying to think of an excuse to get into the Dursleys without sneaking in, so there wouldn't be much of a hassle if they saw him again.
