Chapter 117: Control

Chapter 117: Control

The first time he used the 'Apparation', it seemed to be a success from the result.

With Coven's talent, as long as he succeeded once and mastered the trick, then things would become easier.

Next, under the continued attention of Professor McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey, Coven constantly teleported into the practice room until it was almost dinner time, and no mistakes appeared.

"Congratulations, Little Coven. You have mastered the spell 'Apparation'."

Madam Pomfrey came forward to congratulate him. She took out a bottle of Potion from her pocket and handed it to Coven.

Without waiting for Madam Pomfrey to explain, Coven opened the mouth of the bottle. After smelling the smell, he came to a realization. "This is Essence of Dittany*, right?"

[*TL Note: Essence of Dittany was a magical solution made from dried and crushed dittany leaves and salt water (15 drops), that possessed powerful curative properties, which could be used on open shallow wounds for immediate healing and skin regeneration. It could be used as an ingredient in a wide variety of options, including a mixture of powdered silver and dittany, which could be used to heal werewolf bites.]

"That's right." Madam Pomfrey smiled gently. "There won't be too much danger in the training after that. If you get injured in the future, remember to treat yourself with Essence of Dittany immediately and then go to the infirmary to find me."

"Yes, Madam. I'll remember it." Coven closed the bottle and thanked her. "Thank you, Madam."

"This is what I should do." Madam Pomfrey said politely. Then, she said to Professor McGonagall, "Well, there are still some potions in the infirmary. I'll go back first."

"Okay," Professor McGonagall said kindly. "Poppy, thank you for taking the time to come and help."

Madam Pomfrey waved her hand gently to indicate that it was nothing. She congratulated Coven again and turned to leave.

"Just like Madam Pomfrey said, Coven, congratulations." After Madam Pomfrey left the practice room, Professor McGonagall kindly said to Coven, "You should practice like you did today for the next few days. After you have mastered the 'Apparation', I will teach you another way to use the spell."

"Another way to use it?"

Coven was stunned. He had never seen any related records in books.

Professor McGonagall rarely saw Coven's blank expression. She couldn't help but smile. "That's right. Let's go to the auditorium first. Let's talk while walking."

"Yes, Professor."

Coven responded, and then followed Professor McGonagall out of the practice room, walking in the direction of the auditorium.

On the way, Professor McGonagall explained softly, "There is another way to use Apparation- unlike your disappearance and appearance today. Another way to use it can turn a person's body into smoke and fly in the air."

"Fly?" Coven murmured, and then asked doubtfully, "But Professor, since you can teleport, why do you still need to fly? Is there any difference?"

Professor McGonagall nodded steadily and explained, "You should have experienced something. If you use 'Flash' to use 'Apparate', there will be a brief stun the moment you appear."

Coven agreed. "Indeed."

"So..." Professor McGonagall turned to look at Coven beside her. "If you encounter an enemy with a high level of magic, you will be caught by the enemy for a moment. It is equivalent to turning yourself into a magic target. You can only wait for the enemy to hit you with the spell."

"So that's how it is!" Coven was suddenly enlightened and immediately asked, "Then if we chose to use fly mode, wouldn't that happen?"

"That's right." Professor McGonagall said, "If you choose the fly mode, the effect of the spell will greatly increase your flexibility. The movement route will no longer be as direct as before. You can choose the route of rapid flight on your own, which will make it convenient for you to dodge the attack."

"I understand!" Coven nodded heavily.

..

In the next few days, Coven focused all his energy on practicing Apparation Steps.

On the third day, he practiced the proficiency of Apparation to the instinctive reaction.

There was no need to pay attention to the three key points of the spell before teleportation, reaching the level where he could easily teleport.

On the fourth day, Professor McGonagall began to increase the difficulty of Coven, letting her release all kinds of interference spells to let Coven perform Apparation Steps in the interference.

Because he had so many years of gaming experience, Coven was very good at it.

This caused all kinds of interference from Professor McGonagall to have no effect on Coven at all. He could still calmly use Apparation.

Thus, Professor McGonagall began to teach Coven how to use "Fly". At the same time, she also taught Coven how to change the color of his own smoke after turning into a smoke state.

....

The appointed date arrived in a flash. After a full week, the authorization time in the practice room was over and he could no longer use Apparation in the practice room.

However, at the end of his studies, Coven's Apparation Technique could be considered proficient in both application methods.

...

On this day, George and Fred came to the Room of Requirement in the middle of the night.

Coven, who was reviewing the magic spells, heard the noise and turned around to see that it was the twins. He asked, "Why are you here?"

"Of course, I'm looking for you to explore with us!" George held a piece of parchment in his hand and replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Coven smiled and put away his wand. "Have you found any fun places?"

"Have you forgotten?" George said with an exaggerated expression.

Coven was puzzled. "What did I forget?"

"Start-of-Term Banquet." Fred immediately reminded, "Didn't we agree to explore the forbidden area on the third floor?"

When he got the keyword, Coven instantly remembered the memories of that time. However, he said in surprise, "At that time, you didn't say it to be with me."

"Oh, George, I am sad. What about you?"

"Yes, Fred. I am also sad."

George looked weak and delicate. "Coven actually thought that we would leave him behind."

Fred stood to the side and cupped his heart. "He really doesn't believe in the friendship between us."

"Alright, alright!" Coven felt goosebumps all over his body. He quickly interrupted the twins and said helplessly, "However, are you sure this is okay? At that time, Dumbledore specifically emphasized it. Do you still want to do the same thing that happened in the Forbidden Forest?"

"We will be very careful this time!" George immediately put away his performance and promised, "Moreover, we are only going to take a look. We will not destroy or harm anything, right, Fred?"

"That's right, that's right!" Fred immediately nodded and agreed, "Don't worry, Coven. It will be fine this time! I am sure that Mr. Headmaster must have reminded us to go and take a look!"

"Remind..."

Coven murmured and sighed. This word made him doubt his life again...
