Ciel's "Killing Curse," Choosing a Wand

Chapter 19 Ciel's "Killing Curse," Choosing a Wand

With a low shout in Xia Er's mind, the Deep Blue System's notification sounded.

"Please specify the direction of the deduction, host."

Charles had already had this idea in mind.

His most basic requirements for Apparition are that the activation speed must be as fast as possible, the distance and direction must be accurate, and the stability must be high. There must never be a situation where the apparition is blocked and the user is unable to escape.

"Just use the fairy version of Apparition for my deduction, and also speed up the startup process a bit more."

The Deep Blue system began operating the instant after Sharl provided the direction of the deduction.

With 10,000 deduction points deducted, countless pieces of knowledge about Apparition flooded Xia Er's mind.

Just like the previous deductions of those spells, it's as if there are countless parallel worlds of Sharl researching Apparition day and night.

With the system's support, every trace of spatial fluctuation during Professor McGonagall and the goblin Bashir's Apparition was meticulously analyzed.

Gradually, a vague sense of the "channel" seemed to emerge in Charles's mind.

Shire was aware of both the portals used by wizards for apparition and those used by fairies and house-elves.

The former is filled with traces of wizarding magic, and can be called the "high-speed rail" of the magical world. It is an extremely large magical project and can be said to be one of the highest crystallizations of magic.

Both the wizard who proposed the theory and the wizard who was responsible for its construction deserve to be remembered in the history of magic.

The passageway for fairies and house-elves exudes a magnificent, timeless aura, as if the passage of time cannot shake it in the slightest.

When he realized it, Charles understood why the fairies, even after being defeated by the wizards, still looked down on them and considered themselves a more noble magical race than the wizards.

Indeed, when the British Empire's fleet is mentioned, even a beggar in the London slums will proudly raise his head.

The fairies who can sense that ancient magic are probably the same.

Soon, the reason why the wizards could not use the fairy portal was also revealed in the deduction.

It's actually quite simple. Apart from the fact that 99% of wizards can't sense this passage, the remaining 1% also face the problem of magic authentication.

If it's not the special magic of a fairy or house-elf, then it's like not having a "ticket" for this passage; even if you can sense it, you can't use it.

Most wizards are not capable of solving this problem.

Wizards like Dumbledore and Voldemort, who were skilled in Transfiguration, could certainly use various methods to magically transform themselves and acquire some of the characteristics of fairies.

But it's clear that even a dark wizard like Voldemort, who would transform himself into something neither human nor ghost for the sake of power, would rather make his face look more like a snake than associate himself with races like goblins or house-elves.

Not to mention Dumbledore.

But none of this is a problem for Shire, who possesses the deep blue color.

Sufficient deduction points can solve everything.

Moments later, during the simulation, Ciel discovered a way to disguise his own magic and forge "tickets" to freely switch between the two channels.

The deep blue notification sounded again.

"The initial simulation of Apparition has ended."

"The host has acquired the full version of Apparition, and can Apparate simultaneously using both Wizard and Fairy portals."

"Because it uses two channels for positioning, compared to using a single arbitrary channel, the maximum distance of Phantom Shift is farther and the positioning is more accurate."

"At the same time, the complete version of Apparition solves the drawback of the Witcher version, which required spinning in place to activate, making the activation speed faster. However, due to the additional step of disguising fairy magic, a spell is required to activate it."

"The spell can be set by the host."

Upon hearing Deep Blue's prompt, Charles took a deep breath.

Can one simultaneously use both wizard and fairy portals to perform apparition?

In terms of distance and accuracy, it completely meets my requirements.

At least we won't see the kind of mix-up that happened to Harry Potter and the others in the original books, where they were sent to the wrong place.

The only downside is that, although you don't have to spin around in place, you still need to chant a spell; you can't just snap your fingers to activate it like fairies or house-elves.

However, this won't slow things down by much.

and……

A strange look appeared in Charles's eyes.

Can a user-defined activation spell be used?

Perhaps it's even better than snapping your fingers.

After all, snapping your fingers has no deterrent effect on the enemy; everyone knows you're going to Apparate and run away.

But if you recite a powerful incantation, the enemy will be on guard. How could they have imagined that Ciel, who recited such an incantation, was actually trying to run away?

Thinking of this, Charles's eyes brightened even more, and his initial slight regret vanished.

"Then what kind of spell should I set for Apparition to make all enemies instinctively on guard?"

A moment later, Ciel locked onto the spell that the entire wizarding world called unforgivable, a spell that even Dumbledore had to be careful not to be hit by.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"I'll use this as my Apparition activation spell!"

A slight smile appeared on Charles's lips.

He could already imagine the sight of powerful enemies facing him in the future, when he uttered the Killing Curse, only to find that Charles had slipped away unnoticed.

"Besides, I only use Apparition when I'm escaping from a powerful enemy."

"At my growth rate, as long as I escape and grow stronger for a while, the enemy will be dead."

"Since my Apparition ability guarantees the enemy's death, what's wrong with calling it the Killing Curse?"

"Isn't this perfectly reasonable!"

The completion of the Apparition Spell calculation greatly increased Ciel's sense of security.

Now his attacks include the Laser Spell and the Everlasting Sun Spell, and his control abilities include the Flash Spell, the Repelling Spell, and the Dustless Spell. In addition, there's the newly acquired "Killing Spell," so he can fight and run away, finally having a sense of security in the magical world.

Even if they were to face a vicious dark wizard like Dark again, and were unable to defeat him, they could still escape by using the Dustless Land in conjunction with the "Killing Curse".

All of this happened in a mere instant in Charles's mind.

Professor McGonagall was completely unaware that in such a short time, Ciel had already been able to apparite with a speed that was close to or even surpassed that of fairies, and had even come up with a Ciel version of the Killing Curse.

She addressed Charles.

"Come on, Ciel, we're going to pick out a wand for you."

At this point, Professor McGonagall's eyes also revealed a strange look.

When Dumbledore sent her to mentor the Ciel, although the message was delivered in a very hurried manner, he still mentioned that the Ciel's talent was extremely strong.

It might even be more powerful than Dumbledore was back then. Dumbledore instructed Professor McGonagall to pay close attention to what kind of wand the Shire would be paired with.

Professor McGonagall was also very curious about this.

A talent even greater than Dumbledore's back then?

Is this child Ciel's talent really that great?

What kind of magic wand will you get?

Holly, yew, apple wood...

Or perhaps, elderberry?!
