Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Conjunctivitis Curse

"How did you do that!"

In the face of Jon's levitation charm, the highly experienced Aberforth asked with the same Incredulous expression as Neville, who was only in his first year.

Jon said truthfully.

"This variation of the spell is my own research, but the way of casting this kind of spell was taught to me by my teacher."

When he heard him say this, Aberforth also wisely did not continue to ask more questions, even though the mainstream of magic teaching in the current magical community is through public education in the school, there are still some wizards who have a unique heritage of magic that they have invented and do not disclose it to the public.

"Well, my earlier thought was wrong, you didn't make any mistake in focusing your studies on the levitation charm in the first year, this spell will help you a lot in your future, especially in what we are going to do next."

Although the words were like that, the expression on Aberforth's face was still stony.

"Having the ability to fly allows you to move more dexterously, which will help you protect the rooster better, but how to keep the basilisk in place is also a problem that needs to be solved. There are actually quite a few spells that can help you do that, and I can also teach you, but now there are less than two months before Christmas, how much you can learn during this period, and to what extent, only depends on you."

Jon stared at Aberforth when he suddenly had an idea, then he blinked and asked.

"Why can't we go to Hogwarts castle together then? Just use that secret passage, put on this cloak of invisibility, with Rooster and you in the situation, surely we can easily kill that basilisk, and then find what Professor Dumbledore wants from the Headmaster's office!"

Aberforth, however, without a moment's hesitation, vetoed Jon's proposal.

"Albus should have told you that he had actually arranged for someone in the Order of the Phoenix to pretend to be a student before and tried to infiltrate that castle, but that person was ultimately discovered."

His words evoked a memory of Jon when Dumbledore sent him to Diagon Alley, he did tell him that before him there was a man named "Dedalus Diggle" who also carried out this spy task, but no longer after entering Hogwarts Castle, he was discovered by a spell that detects age and unfortunately was taken to Azkaban.

"The Dark Lord has done a very good job in protecting that castle, and there is Age Line enchantment all over that castle, any adult wizard besides those faculty members who enter the castle will be detected immediately." Aberforth said in a deep voice, "This is the best possible protective measure, as long as adult wizards are excluded, the dark lord believes that even if Albus has arranged for young children to infiltrate the school, they can't make any big difference. What's more, he took the protection of the few students left on the wagon as his only meaning to live, which means he would be even less likely to do such a thing."

Jon smacked his lips, originally, according to what he thought, as long as he could bring Aberforth inside, then things would be much easier, but now it seems that this solution is not feasible.

"Then let's start learning the spell today." Jon's words sounded very flat, as if there was not much sense of urgency about the little time left, "Today is November first, Christmas dinner on December 25, 55 days is enough time."

A smile appeared on Aberforth's bearded face.

"I like your confidence, then let's not waste any more time and start now."

Right after he took out his own wand, his eyes went over towards the wand in Jon's hand only at this moment after Jon entered to properly take a look, then his whole body suddenly froze.

Jon noticed his strange reaction and couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"What's the problem?"

Aberforth did not answer his question, but slowly stretched out his hand and looked at Jon's wand with a complicated gaze.

"Can you show it to me?"

Jon did not refuse and passed the chestnut wand directly to Aberforth's hand.

Aberforth seemed to be incredibly familiar with this wand, he used his rough hands to caress the ancient and worn wand, Jon was unable to read the complex emotions in his eyes.

"I tried to steal it from Albus's hand and break it countless times when I was young, but I was unsuccessful. He protected it very well and did not allow anyone to touch it, I did not expect it to fall into your hands now, did Albus give it to you?"

At the time when he first got the wand in his hand, Jon had noticed the look Dumbledore gave it was not quite right, and now it was obvious that Aberforth also knew the owner of the wand.

"It was during the wand selection, I thought this wand suited me, and then took it, Professor Dumbledore also agreed to give it to me." He said truthfully.

Aberforth looked at Jon again, this time he looked him up and down carefully as if he wanted to see through Jon's skin, to study whether he is a different person or not.

"I never thought he would actually give this wand away, I thought he would treasure it for the rest of his life."

Hearing Aberforth's lament, Jon asked in confusion.

"So who is the original owner of this wand?"

"I don't want to mention that name, but whoever used it before, it's yours now." Aberforth returned the wand to Jon's hand, "Talking about this won't help the situation at hand, let's continue where we left off."

He really does not seem to want to say anything more about the origin of the wand, plus he said that he had tried many times to steal it from Dumbledore's hands and break it, it is clear that he and the original owner of the wand did not see eye to eye.

Jon did have some curiosity about the identity of the original owner of the wand in his hand, and Aberforth's reaction also gave him a little guess. Still, as the man said, it was not going to help the problem at hand by dwelling on this matter, no matter what the identity of the person who used the wand before him, the wand itself did not have any special characteristics.

"There are actually many spells that can affect the basilisk, and the most powerful attribute of this creature lies in those eyes of it, so the Conjunctivitis Curse has always been the basilisk's nemesis."

"Can this curse directly ruin the basilisk's eye power?"

"The Basilisk's eyelids have extremely powerful magic resistance, so it won't be destroyed by such a simple spell, but you can rely on it to cause some effects on the basilisk's eyes. This will make it subconsciously close its eyes, which will ensure that you won't be directly killed when you inadvertently lock eyes with it. Of course, if you're lucky enough that your spell hits it directly on any of its eyeballs, then it can also cause powerful devastating damage to that eye, making it temporarily blind."
