Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

After all, I'm a Muggle-born wizard who was sorted into Slytherin, so it's natural that I'd easily come into the sights of those who uphold the pure-blood supremacy ideology. Read

However, after a year of closed-door cultivation, Anduin wasn't too afraid, but he still needed to add some trump cards.

After pondering for a long time, Anduin made a decision, simply moving to the Forbidden Forest cottage, which would reduce the chance of conflict with those pure-blood factions.

After moving out of the dormitory, Anduin continued to practice spells every day, study rune knowledge, and then go to Professor Bones' place in the evening to study Charms.

This day, Anduin was in his small room reading "Aggregate Runelogy." This book introduced a lot of knowledge about optimizing runes by adjusting the structure of runes, and Anduin also found a way to increase and decrease sound wave frequencies.

But just as Anduin was reading with relish, his door was knocked.

Opening the door of the cottage, he found Charles standing at the door. Anduin smiled and said, "You're here, it seems your reason has overcome your impulsiveness."

Charles was led into the room by Anduin, looked at the furnishings in the cottage, and asked curiously, "You live here now?"

"That's right. The internal situation in Slytherin is not peaceful now, all the students are being forced to choose sides by those pure-blood factions, but they will definitely not let me go. Rather than continue living in the dormitory and giving them a chance to find fault, it's better to jump out and accumulate strength," Anduin said with a smile.

Charles said angrily, "I didn't expect those bastards to not even spare their own academy's classmates. What about Vivian? She also hates those guys, right?"

"She comes from a large family. Although she is a half-blood, it's not enough for her to be treated like that, and Senior Vanessa will protect those girls," Anduin said.

Charles nodded and said, "That's good. I've been thinking about it, and I feel that I'm still too weak. Recently, some conflicts have occurred again between our academy and Slytherin, but I can't help at all. You have more ideas, and I'm willing to listen to you. Tell me, what should I do?"

Anduin took out a piece of paper from his desk drawer and said to Charles, "I have already planned a training program for you. For the next period of time, you will have to undergo special training."

Charles took the parchment and looked at it, then frowned and asked, "Running? What kind of special training is this? Even if you want to train, shouldn't you be practicing spells?"

Anduin patted Charles's slightly thin body and said, "Your physique is not strong enough, which will affect your reaction ability. Strengthening your physical fitness can also activate the magic in your body, so the effect of practicing spells will be better. At the same time, continuous exercise can strengthen your will, and a firm will can increase the intensity of magic. These are all what I have summarized over the years."

Then, without waiting for Charles to say anything, he continued, "You must get up early every morning, and I will take you running to train your physical fitness. After class, you come to me to start endurance training and spell practice for magic. You have to be mentally prepared, this is not easy."

Charles shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid of hardship. As long as I can become stronger, I can persevere!"

Anduin looked at Charles's determined look and nodded.

As one of the few peers and friends, Anduin naturally supported the idea of being motivated, but it still depends on whether there is enough determination.

"Okay, now we will start magic extension training. This is a training method I developed myself, which can strengthen your control and perception of magic," Anduin said.

Then Anduin took a large basin of water, controlled the basin to fly over Charles's head, and said to Charles, "Now cast a spell on it, use the Levitation Charm."

Charles had never heard of the training method that Anduin said, but he did as he was told, but he couldn't cast spells silently and wandlessly like Anduin, so he had to take out his wand and cast the spell.

"Okay, what you have to do next is to maintain the current state of spellcasting, and then persevere for as long as possible, trying to feel the flow of magic in your body, and try to save magic power as much as possible," Anduin said to Charles about the training points.

"Then what?" Charles stared nervously at the large basin above his head. He had used too much force at the beginning, and he had never cast a spell on such a heavy object.

"Then? Then just wait. I'll see how your magic storage is first. Hold on, continuous spellcasting can help you improve your control over magic," Anduin leisurely took a chair and sat next to Charles, continuing to flip through the book.

Charles persisted for five or six minutes, and then felt sore all over, and his neck, which had been raised all the time, became stiff. He asked Anduin nervously, "Is this really effective? I feel like I can't hold on anymore!"

"It's only been a few minutes? When I was seven or eight years old, I persisted longer than you. Stop dawdling and hold on. The longer you persist, the better the effect," Anduin said lightly with a frown.

Without trying systematic training, it often takes a period of adaptation time, just like long-distance running. When you start training, you always rush too fast and too hard, and as a result, you run out of breath before you even run halfway. Even if the original physical strength is enough to complete the long-distance running, you can't persist to the end.

Charles's situation is like this now. The wizarding world has never had a precedent for systematic training. Basically, they only value the result, not the process. Ability and achievement all depend on talent and self-consciousness, and may even be attributed to bloodlines by pure-blood families. Anduin has always looked down on this, and he plans to personally train Charles into a wizard who far exceeds his peers and use facts to verify that effort is more important than bloodlines.

Since this is the case, don't blame me for being cruel, Anduin thought silently as he looked at Charles, who was struggling to persevere.

"Continue, hold on. If you can't even complete this small training, how can you avenge your relatives?" Anduin said coldly.

When Charles heard Anduin's words, he suddenly became anxious and kept gritting his teeth and persisting.

"You have to maintain it for at least ten minutes," Anduin reminded again.

"Okay!" Charles said fiercely.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Charles had persisted for more than ten minutes, but Anduin had not reminded Charles, he was preparing to squeeze Charles's potential as much as possible.

"Not yet? I feel like my magic power has been drained." Because he used a little too much force at the beginning, Charles now feels a little weak.

"There's one last minute, hold on." In fact, the time has reached eleven minutes, and the magic power currently output by Charles is basically equal to all the magic power of wizards of his age.

After another while, Charles already felt a little dizzy, so he could only ask again, "Not yet? It seems like it's been a while."
