Chapter 605: Rest Ritual

"Well, you just engraved five hundred and twenty sets of Undetectable Extension magic texts."

Newt's gaze fell behind Xiang Xien; the space inside the Wizard's Book could already fit a classroom.

"Five hundred and twenty-one sets, Mr. Scamander."

Xiang Xien stared at the parchment in his hand, which was covered with dense magic text arrays.

He had always been accustomed to recording his alchemy process and forming a book.

"Very interesting, the splitting spell is also... considered a difficult spell, we can learn it slowly."

Newt smiled harmoniously.

For the next period of time, Xiang Xien was learning the splitting spell from Mr. Scamander.

Of course, the place where they learned had already moved to Ilvermorny Forest.

When the cold wind was biting, their footsteps rang on the grass of Ilvermorny Forest stained with snowflakes.

They always stayed in different places, practiced the splitting spell for a while in one place, and then when Mr. Scamander sensed that this piece of space was not stable, they set off to find another remote and hidden place.

They walked through forests, dark cliff crevices, purple marshes, hillsides covered with gorse, and once they arrived at a hidden pebble cove.

Ilvermorny Forest was even larger than the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts; Xiang Xien followed Mr. Scamander and learned until late at night.

During this period, Pukwudgies also sent them sumptuous food. When resting, Xiang Xien and Senior Newt hid behind a tree, watching a pair of Ilvermorny students writing with branches in the snow.

"I'm done writing!"

A witch said loudly.

The wizard walked over excitedly and timidly to see.

They wrote letters unique to winter in the snow, writing down everything they couldn't say to each other.

The only thing to note was that the two people couldn't go too late, otherwise, the letter would melt.

Heavy snow whitened Xiang Xien's eyebrows; he wrapped Professor Marcus Marcus Maige's scarf, and then saw Mr. Scamander also wearing a scarf that could be called bloated.

"My wife, dear Goldstein, knitted it for me for a week."

Mr. Scamander said with a smile.

Xiang Xien nodded; his thoughts crossed an entire Ilvermorny Forest, crossed an entire Atlantic Ocean invaded by cold currents, and floated to the warm fireplace in the Transfiguration office.

He thought of the ball of yarn and long needles in the corner of the office; would they move in Professor Marcus Marcus Maige's hands?

In winter, the snow crunched underfoot, and the two wizards wandering outside were both wrapped in obviously wide scarves.

After resting.

Spending half the night, Xiang Xien finally learned the splitting spell.

When he split a small piece of space, he was full of joy.

Snowflakes shook off his hair, and he quickly raised his wand so that Mr. Scamander could see clearly.

"Very good, very... fast learning speed."

Newt praised softly.

Xiang Xien turned his head, staring at the panel with burning eyes.

【You have practiced the splitting spell once with entry standards, proficiency +3】

【Splitting spell: Unlocked (3/30)】

For Xiang Xien, the most difficult thing was the first success, and now, the only difficulty was time.

The original stone house of Ilvermorny.

Xiang Xien entered the warm house covered in night and wind and snow.

On the dining table were some porridge and cut beef pieces, as well as various fruits.

By the fireplace, there were also roasted sweet potatoes and pumpkins, emitting a fragrance that Xiang Xien couldn't refuse.

"Eat something? No one has been here for a long time; I have forgotten how good William's craftsmanship is...

Time is really a thief; it let me witness Ilvermorny change from a small house to a granite castle.

Now, it has blurred all of this again. What else can I have left? This is the reason why I still remain."

Lady Isolt watched Xiang Xien's dipping beans stop instantly, and the little wizard turned to think seriously.

"Ghosts are products of obsession, but... even if ghosts resolve their obsession, how should they return to the boundary?"

Xiang Xien held the pumpkin-shaped, steaming cup handle and frowned.

"Learned little wizard, do you know the boundary?"

Lady Isolt was immediately interested.

"I know some, Headmistress Sayre."

Xiang Xien said.

"The world behind the veil, how interesting; I can't wait to reunite with James, Chadwick, and Webster."

Lady Isolt showed a long and deep smile,

"The school we founded together has become famous, and all magical families in North America are scrambling to send their children to study;

Freedom, fairness, and equality have also been engraved in the hearts of every Ilvermorny wizard;

And the North American magic knowledge we built and spread together, and the feat of combining local magic with European magic, have also formed something newer, more powerful, and more beautiful."

Xiang Xien's hand drinking pumpkin juice paused, and he turned to look at Lady Isolt with green eyes.

"Magic is magnificent and wonderful; when a wizard's knowledge is sufficient and his beliefs are firm, magic will flow like a spring.

The range of an arrow will not exceed the tension of the bow, and the magical power of a wizard will not exceed their beliefs."

Lady Isolt floated in front of Xiang Xien, pointing to the runic symbols above the fireplace,

"Since the veil exists, there is also magic to lift it; this is the magic ritual to let ghosts go to the boundary.

If you are willing to help, that would be great... I watched Herrera grow up, watched William grow old...

Letting them send me away, that must be a heartbreaking thing."

Xiang Xien couldn't fully imagine such a thing; he looked silently at the runes engraved above the fireplace—the words "Rest Ritual" were shining.

Immediately, Xiang Xien nodded:

"I am very happy to help."

Sending away a ghost, this is really a strange thing.

In the morning, Xiang Xien woke up; he sipped pumpkin juice and started practicing spells.

【You have practiced the splitting spell once with entry standards, proficiency +3】

【You have practiced the splitting spell once with entry standards, proficiency +3】

Until he felt tired, Xiang Xien walked out of the small house.

The splitting spell was still too difficult, let alone moving space.

He estimated that at least 【skilled】 level spell proficiency was needed to do this.

Walking into the small path in the snow, the looming Ilvermorny was not far away.

Similarly, Ilvermorny Forest, and Senior Newt in the forest, were not far away either.

When heavy snow was falling, Xiang Xien entered the forest.

There were various sounds in the forest, the sound of branches breaking in the distance, the soft rustling of snow, and the sound of animals running and creeping mixed with other noises.

While walking, Xiang Xien suddenly caught a glimpse of a yellow shadow, which was passing by at high speed.

This discovery made him a little excited—it was a Wampus cat, the wild mascot of Ilvermorny.

After finishing the last subject of the exam today, the deer finally escaped from the sea of suffering. Taking leave for two updates, returning to normal four updates tomorrow. ===== CHAPTER 606 =====
