Chapter 90: The shock of the self-created spell! Duel title - King of Fluorescence!
At this time, Ron, who was running in the crowd, had a face that turned pale and blue.
From the first time he met Ciel, he had no good impression of him, and later he told Harry and Hermione behind his back many times that Ciel might not be that great after all.
As a result, Ciel has now achieved results that even Professor McGonagall, the head of Gryffindor, is amazed.
This isn't over yet?
Ron comforted himself subconsciously.
"He may just be good at Transfiguration, but he can't possibly have such a deep attainment in Charms."
"Besides, although Professor Flitwick is small in stature, he is said to be a duelling champion."
"A first-year wizard would be defeated in a spell duel with Professor Flitwick in no time."
But next to Ron, even though Hermione was running out of breath, her tone was still extremely firm.
"impossible."
"I know Charles Evans too well."
“When I first met him, I thought what he wanted to do was impossible, but it turns out that he succeeded every time.”
"So I'm sure that he never does anything without confidence, and I believe this even more firmly than I believe that I'm smart."
"Nothing is impossible for him, he is always creating miracles."
Ron's face turned a little paler.
"Miracle?"
"There is only one miracle in the wizarding world, and that is Harry!"
Harry, who was standing by, felt embarrassed and quickly changed the subject.
"Look, there are so many people gathered in the spell classroom in front!"
Ron and Hermione looked forward and found that the front was packed with people.
Just when latecomers like them were worried about not being able to see what was happening in the classroom, the tables, chairs and benches in the classroom flew up one after another, overlapping layer by layer, and under the effect of transformation, they created a platform for people to stand on.
On one side of the ring was Ciel holding a mithril wand, and on the other side was Professor Flitwick, the Head of Ravenclaw House.
Professor Flitwick's eyes showed surprise.
"Nice Transfiguration. No wonder I heard from the students that Minerva approved your application for exemption from the class."
Charles also exclaimed in admiration.
"The professor's levitation spell is also quite amazing. It can levitate multiple targets over such a large area, and all of them are floating at the same height. It's amazing."
Professor Flitwick laughed.
"Alright, Ciel, enough of the mutual flattery."
"I admit that your Transfiguration is amazing, but you are now asking me for exemption from Charms. I will not look at your Transfiguration skills."
"You have to show me how well you have mastered the spells. Transfiguration is not within the scope of my assessment."
A fiery look gradually appeared in Charles' eyes.
"I also want to learn from Professor Flitwick, who is the professor of Charms at Hogwarts and is said to be a duelling champion for more than ten years. How far can he go in using spells?"
Charles' words were not false.
Professor Flitwick, who has few roles in the original work, is definitely in the first tier of strength below Dumbledore, Voldemort, and Grindelwald.
Dolohov, the elite Death Eater who was able to kill Lupin in a duel, was also easily killed by Professor Flitwick in a duel, which shows that his strength is far superior to Lupin, a core member of the Order of the Phoenix.
The previous Transfiguration duel with Professor McGonagall provided Ciel with a lot of Transfiguration materials.
But compared to Transfiguration, Charles is undoubtedly much weaker in spells.
Apart from his extraordinary proficiency in the Luminescent Charm and a few Holy Charms, he has only dabbled in other spells.
Getting some materials from Professor Flitwick would be enough to reduce a lot of points consumed when Charles deduces these spells later.
At this time, Professor Flitwick and Ciel exchanged a duel salute, and then the professor signaled Ciel to attack first.
Charles was not brave enough and immediately cast a stun spell that he had read from the spell book.
Then the mithril wand in his hand drew a beautiful arc and cast another disarming spell.
With his attainments in the Expulsion Spell and the Patronus Spell, although he could not copy them completely, but by analogy, this kind of low-level spell was not difficult at all, and he used it as standard as in a textbook.
Professor Flitwick exclaimed in surprise.
"Not bad, a standard spell."
"Many senior students are not as good as you. No wonder you dare to apply for exemption from Charms."
This conversation did not affect Professor Flitwick's spellcasting at all.
He waved his wand without reciting any spell, but an invisible iron wall appeared and easily blocked Charles' two spells.
Ciel's pupils shrank slightly.
"Silent casting?"
He also knows this technique, but it is limited to the spells that Deep Blue has deduced.
Moreover, silent casting and more advanced wandless casting have a disadvantage, that is, without spells and wands, although it is faster, the power of the spell will be significantly reduced.
But even so, Professor Flitwick's Shield Charm still easily blocked the two spells thrown by Ciel.
It can only be said that in Professor Flitwick's opinion, the level of these two spells cast by Ciel was easy for him to deal with.
Sure enough, Professor Flitwick continued with a smile.
"But if that's all, then forget about exempting me from class, Ciel-san."
Immediately, he waved his wand repeatedly, and spells fell towards Charles like a storm.
Since there was no sound of any spells being chanted, Charles had no way of determining what those spells were.
What's more, Professor Flitwick cast spells too quickly, and spells came one after another. Even if Charles could judge them, he would not have time to cast the corresponding counter-spells for all of them.
Fortunately, Charles' attainments in the Iron Armor Curse are also profound. After all, he has already deduced the Dragon Armor Curse, so the ordinary Iron Armor Curse is naturally more powerful.
Along with the equally silent casting of the spell, an invisible wall that was even more resilient than the one cast by Professor Flitwick stood up, blocking the incoming spell.
This time, Professor Flitwick was clearly taken aback.
"Silently release the armor spell?"
"Is the intensity still so high?"
"Good fellow, Ciel, you are really amazing at this. Ninety-nine percent of the Aurors in the Ministry of Magic are not as good as you!"
Then, a serious look appeared on his face, with a hint of excitement.
"In that case, I can't underestimate you. I'm going to get serious about it."
"Come on, let me see your limits."
Then, Professor Flitwick stopped talking altogether, and the only sound on the stage was his rapid chanting of spells.
A series of spells that were obviously much more powerful than the previous ones whizzed in, hitting Charles' armor spell and causing sparks to fly.
Under such intensive attacks of magic spells, the Silent Armor Spell was obviously not enough.
Charles concentrated, held his breath, and shouted softly.
"Armor protection!"
A thicker barrier rose up.
But under Professor Flitwick's magical machine gun-like attack, the armor spell soon began to falter.
Charles looked at these colorful spells and was gradually suppressed in the corner of the ring.
But there was no anxiety on his face, instead there was a look of joy.
Because as Professor Flitwick cast the spell, Deep Blue also kept emitting prompt sounds like a screen refresh.
"The host has obtained the materials for the coma spell. The points required for subsequent deductions have decreased."
"The host has obtained the materials for the decomposition spell. The points required for subsequent deductions have decreased."
"..."
Ciel simply stopped fighting back and focused on casting the Shield Charm to see how many tricks Professor Flitwick had left.
Naturally, they were at an absolute disadvantage on the scene.
The Hogwarts students who came to watch the show after hearing the news couldn't help but be dazzled by Professor Flitwick's magic show.
"Professor Flitwick is really strong."
"There are almost no two spells that are the same, and the casting speed is too fast. The power of the spell is also terrifying."
"Except for the two attacks at the beginning, Ciel is now completely suppressed and can only defend with the Iron Armor Spell. There is no room for breathing."
The young wizards of Ravenclaw are very proud of this, after all, this is the headmaster of their Ravenclaw house.
Ron in the crowd breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Hermione and Harry beside him.
"See, I told you that Ciel is only good at Transfiguration. Isn't his application for exemption from Charms going to fail soon?"
"Hermione, Ciel is not as great as you say."
Hermione said nothing, but just kept looking at Charles with a firm gaze.
At this time, Professor Flitwick, who had completely gained the upper hand, joked.
"Ciel, you used the armor charm beautifully."
"But the other spells are too common. You can't be exempted from my courses if you are so biased." "But just based on your Shield Charm, I plan to give Hufflepuff an extra 100 points."
Charles smiled.
From the beginning till now, he had obtained dozens of materials from Professor Flitwick!
Although he may not be able to use all of these spells, their value is immeasurable when you calculate it this way, and it is really a pleasure to use them.
At this time, facing Professor Flitwick's joke, Ciel also admitted it.
"Indeed, my other spells are quite common. I haven't practiced them specifically. I just looked at them in the spell book and used them casually."
"There aren't many spells I've studied specifically. The Shield Charm is one, and the other one I can use is the Luminescence Charm."
"Professor, please give me some advice."
After hearing what Ciel said, not only Professor Flitwick, but also the Hogwarts students who were watching were stunned.
Then, a feeling of sourness arose in my heart.
As for the stunning spell and disarming spell that Charles had used earlier, 90% of the people present couldn't use them, and they weren't even written in the textbooks.
But even so, Charles actually said that he just casually looked at the spell book and used it without studying it carefully at all.
Is this the difference between people?
However, when they heard Charles say that he had another special spell, the Luminescent Spell, everyone felt confused.
The fluorescent spell is the lowest level of magic.
Even among the first-year wizards who have just taken their first spells class, nearly half of them can successfully cast the fluorescent spell.
Such a spell, Charles said he had studied it specifically?
What is there to study about this?
You actually need Professor Flitwick's guidance?
Professor Flitwick was curious and reduced the frequency of his spell attacks, motioning for Charles to show him his Luminescent Charm.
The next moment, Charles raised his hand, and a ray of light as dazzling as the sun poured out from the tip of the wand.
This was the Flash Spell that he hadn't used for a long time.
When the Flash Spell was first developed, although it was truly like a flash bomb, it was not as dazzling as this one.
However, with the subsequent development of the Luminescent Spell, spells such as Eternal Blazing Sun, Edge of Night, and Lightless Sun appeared, and the Glitter Spell became stronger and stronger due to the feedback.
More importantly, Ciel's recent mental transformation has greatly enhanced his ability to cast fairly basic spells like the Flash.
All these factors combined to create a light as dazzling as the sun.
Except for Professor Flitwick, who reacted extremely quickly and immediately created a dark area, the vision of everyone inside and outside the Charms classroom turned completely white in an instant, and they could not see what was happening.
Professor Flitwick couldn't help but exclaim in praise.
"Is this a new spell derived from the Luminescent Charm?"
"It's actually possible to radiate the light of the Luminescent Charm to such an extent that it can create a flashing effect."
"Char, you are truly proficient in the fluorescent spell."
At this moment, a strange smile appeared on Charles' lips.
"is it?"
"Then professor, your praise may be a little premature."
Immediately, he waved the mithril wand in his hand again, and the laser spell came out.
The thin beam of light contained the power to cut through metal and jade, and was also strengthened by Charles' spiritual transformation.
Dense laser beams condensed into a net and enveloped Professor Flitwick.
Wherever the laser net passed, the surface of the arena was cut into neat squares, which made Professor Flitwick look solemn.
He waved his wand like the wind and growled.
"Armor protection—triple cast!"
The next moment, three invisible barriers appeared in front of Professor Flitwick, blocking the laser spell cast by Charles.
At this point, Professor Flitwick was no longer just in admiration, he could hardly hide the shock on his face.
He thought that changing the Luminescent Charm into the Flash Charm was already Ciel's limit.
Just looking at this move, and taking into account the proficiency in the Shield Charm that Ciel had previously demonstrated, Professor Flitwick could actually agree to exempt Ciel from coming to class.
But he could never have imagined that the Flash Spell was not Charles's limit, and he had even developed a lethal spell above it?
The magnitude of this leap is truly incalculable!
Professor Flitwick felt that this achievement alone was enough to publish a top paper in the wizarding world.
Seeing that Ciel seemed eager to try, Professor Flitwick quickly called a stop.
"Alright, alright, let's stop here."
he said half-jokingly.
"If you keep fighting like this, I'm afraid you'll just pull out the Sun Curse. Be careful not to accidentally hurt the students nearby."
"Ciel, you don't need to attend my class. If you have any questions about Charms, just come to my office and talk to me."
At this time, the young wizards of Hogwarts nearby recovered from the state of white vision caused by the flash spell.
After hearing what Professor Flitwick said, everyone looked confused.
What happened?
Didn’t they just see Professor Flitwick suppressing Ciel? Why did Professor Flitwick just stop fighting after that flash of light?
What on earth had Charles done?
By this time, Professor Flitwick and Ciel had already performed the ceremony to end the duel.
Professor Flitwick looked at Ciel with a feeling of deep emotion.
"You are truly the first person I have ever seen who has studied the Luminescent Charm to this extent."
"Those two spells just now, were both created by you from the Luminescent Charm? What are their names?"
Ciel nodded.
"One is called the Flash Charm, and the other is called the Laser Charm."
Professor Flitwick patted Ciel on the shoulder.
"You have created two spells at this age, and one of them is a powerful killing spell. Ciel, you are indeed the most powerful genius I have ever seen."
He paused, then said with great certainty.
"Headmaster Dumbledore is far from being as good as you at your age..."
When these words came out, it was like a thunderclap, shocking all the onlookers so much that their minds went blank.
"Self-made...spell?"
"Aren't spells written in textbooks? How can we create our own?!"
Some of the more knowledgeable Ravenclaw students murmured.
"Of course, spells can be created by oneself. For example, the most famous curse, the Killing Curse, was created by a mysterious person."
"The creators of the remaining spells can also be found."
"But what is certain is that creating a spell is no easy task. Even the creator of the seemingly insignificant Luminescent Charm has made his name in the history of magic because of his actions."
"..."
As soon as their words came out, everyone present felt their heads buzzing.
"So, just the two spells Ciel created today are enough to make him famous in the history of magic, twice?!"
"What the hell, the difference between people is so big?"
"We are still learning magic from the textbooks, but Ciel has already started to create his own spells?!"
In addition, Professor Flitwick said personally that Ciel's talent was the strongest he had ever seen, and he even asserted that Dumbledore was far inferior to Ciel back then.
Such words also caused shock in the hearts of everyone present.
Before, everyone was just speculating that perhaps Ciel would be the greatest genius in the history of Hogwarts.
But compared with Headmaster Dumbledore, most people still think that Dumbledore is the most talented.
But now, what Professor Flitwick said was undoubtedly much more credible and could be regarded as the final conclusion.
Ciel's talent indeed surpasses Dumbledore's. He deserves the title of the greatest genius in the history of Hogwarts!
At this time, Professor Flitwick seemed to remember something and said to Charles.
"Ciel, your dueling skills are pretty good. You're already qualified to join the British Wizard Dueling Club."
"It just so happens that as the honorary chairman of the club, I invite you to join."
Charles was stunned for a moment, then gladly accepted it.
The wizards in the duel club should all be strong in single combat. By registering their name here, they may be able to come into contact with some unique magic. Naturally, Charles would not refuse.
When Flitwick saw that Charles agreed, he smiled and applauded.
"Then give yourself a nickname. It has to be more domineering, like my nickname in the club is the King of the Wind, because my spells are as fast and fierce as the wind."
"There is also a wizard who is good at using a wand and a sword. His nickname is the King of Blades."
"You gave yourself a similar name?"
Charles hesitated for a moment.
He didn't want the nickname to reveal too much about himself. It would be better for people to focus on the aspects he had already shown and ignore the hidden parts of him.
Then, Charles said.
"I'd better keep a low profile and just call myself..."
"The King of Fluorescence?"
