Chapter 172: Finite Incantatem

Transfiguration, Finite Incantatem, Disillusionment Charm.

These were the practical spell groups Sean had formulated for himself. They provided Sean with offense, defense, and concealment respectively.

Grinding the subsequent two spells to 'Expert' level, improving his practical combat ability, and unlocking the Spell Domain 'Skilled' level title was one of Sean's most important tasks currently.

After all, after "Standard Book of Spells: Grade 4", the difficulty of learning spells would increase abruptly.

Sean needed to prepare for future spell learning.

"A very good choice,"

Professor Fuliwei gratifyingly let Sean open "Standard Book of Spells: Grade 4", which completely recorded the pronunciation and casting gestures of Finite Incantatem.

"Finite Incantatem is the basic counter-curse magic in the spell system, and it has remarkable results in dispelling low-level hexes and control-type spells—

Cast a spell, Mr. Green."

Sean silently cast an Aguamenti Charm and recorded the explanation of the counter-curse.

Sean knew that some Dark Arts possessed their own corresponding counter-curses, such as Professor Sineipu's Sectumsempra.

But clearly, some counter-curses could also deal with most Dark Arts, such as Finite Incantatem.

It was the counter-curse for many jinxes and hexes.

Very interesting. Sean only treated it as a defensive spell before, but thinking carefully, its magical principle was not to apply defense for the wizard, but to disintegrate the opponent's attack.

"Finite Incantatem."

Professor Fuliwei waved his wand, and those water flows all disappeared without a trace.

"Oh—did you feel it? Mr. Green."

Professor Fuliwei crossed his hands, slowly placed "Standard Book of Spells: Grade 4" on the somewhat dilapidated desktop and asked.

"The magic was blocked, Professor."

Sean perceived that the magic output from the tip of his wand seemed to be blocked, and naturally, his casting was disintegrated.

"Very good! Keen perception!"

Professor Fuliwei walked back and forth on the spot excitedly,

"Come try, end, disintegrate, remember, Mr. Green..."

"Finite Incantatem!"

Sean imitated the professor's gestures, imagining that he wanted to end the other party's casting, so he waved the tip of his wand downward fiercely.

【You practiced Finite Incantatem once with the standard of an entry person, proficiency +3】

The Aguamenti Charm the professor had just cast disappeared immediately.

"Amazing speed of progress!"

Inside the classroom.

Xiang Hemin had been holding "Easy Introduction to Ancient Runes" for five days. She was naturally very interested in this kind of mysterious and powerful text, and had borrowed quite a few related books from the library.

Luo Jie was naturally acting as Sean's sparring partner; after all, Sean couldn't cast Finite Incantatem at the air.

【You practiced Finite Incantatem once with the standard of an entry person, proficiency +3】

【You practiced Finite Incantatem once with the standard of an entry person, proficiency +3】

This kind of practice continued until Sean unlocked Finite Incantatem.

The remaining time was Sean guiding a certain excited little badger.

After all, Nawei had been making feathers fly everywhere recently, and Luo Jie prepared to learn this spell so that Nawei wouldn't be afraid to use small wooden boards to practice—Nawei was always afraid he wouldn't control it well and hit someone.

However, what Sean didn't expect was that the Finite Incantatem he had just learned soon welcomed an opportunity for practical combat.

After entering October, the weather became increasingly cold.

The mountains around the school were gray, and occasionally they would be covered with very thin ice and snow, and the lake surface also gradually began to freeze.

At this time, the young wizards would put on their gloves, wrap scarves, and the most common thing to do was to chat, do homework, and play games in front of the fireplace.

Friday afternoon,

Spell classroom.

Because there was no fireplace here, it was exceptionally cold, and coupled with the Aguamenti Charm that Professor Fuliwei told about today,

everyone tried cautiously, fearing that the water flow would gush out and drench themselves.

Professor Fuliwei demonstrated the wand movement again, and the movement was as smooth as drawing a winding stream in the air.

"The wrist must be soft, don't be stiff. The spell is 'Aguamenti', it must be recited as crisp as a spring, instead of like smashing stones..."

The classroom soon rang with a burst of whispers and the swishing sound of waving wands.

Luo Jie waved his wand cautiously, and a small stream of water emerged from the tip of the wand. Although weak, the direction was correct, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He turned his head,

Sean was building the water flow into an arch bridge, then waved his wand and recited the spell, and the water flow was cleaned up before it even fell.

"Oh—truly amazing."

Luo Jie muttered to himself, a smile of pride appearing on his face.

"Very good, Mr. Green! I want to add two points to Ravenclaw!"

Professor Fuliwei walked over, nodded at Sean with satisfaction,

"Of course, good progress, one point to Hufflepuff, Mr. Fenli."

The smile on Luo Jie's face became even gentler.

Among a group of Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs, an orange-red figure looked particularly prominent.

Seamus Finnigan, due to his successive explosions, Professor Fuliwei had to let him practice more, so he let him take an extra class and paid extra attention to him.

It was just like how he paid attention to Sean, putting in a lot of energy—the professor's gaze jumped back and forth between Sean and Seamus for the whole class.

Seamus frowned, his face full of focus and determination.

He reminded himself not to fail again, and even if he failed, he couldn't cause an explosion...

So he firmly remembered what Professor Fuliwei said about "power" and "gushing", telling himself he had to succeed at least once.

He gripped his wand tightly, as if it weren't a wand, but a wild horse's reins that needed to be tamed.

"Aguamenti!"

Seamus shouted, using all his strength to draw an arc forward with his wand.

However, things did not go as expected.

There was no clear spring water, not even scattered water splashes.

Instead, there was a deafening loud noise, as if a water balloon filled with water burst suddenly under high pressure.

A thick, out-of-control water column—more like an invisible water buffalo rushing out with all its strength—sprayed from the tip of Seamus's wand.

Professor Fuliwei was facing away from him. When the professor noticed, the cold water flow rushed straight at the professor.

However, just behind the water flow, a pair of emerald eyes were flashing with light:

"Finite Incantatem!"

A flash of light emerged from Sean's wand, and the water flow gradually disappeared in the air as if it had encountered some resistance.
