Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

The longsword that Neville noticed was standing straight on the display stand, blade down. The guard was a light silver color, resembling a Western-style cross sword but with a slight curve. The hilt was carefully wrapped in thick leather, and just looking at it, one could tell it would be comfortable to grip.

The most peculiar thing about this sword was its blade. The section below the guard was completely covered in rough, jagged rocks. It was unclear whether the actual blade was inside the rocks, or if it was a stone sword to begin with.

Compared to the other alchemical equipment, this greatsword seemed out of place, its appearance was rather… ugly.

But for some reason, Neville was moved by its simple texture as soon as he saw it. He stared at it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but tiptoe and reach out to touch the hilt.

The moment he touched it, Neville felt a chilling weight, as if he were holding not a piece of equipment, but an entire world.

So heavy!

No, heavy wasn't enough to describe it. It felt like it was connected to the stand beneath it, and he couldn't move it an inch, even with all his strength! He couldn't even make it tilt slightly!

The contact surface between the sword and the display stand was clearly only a centimeter or two, and there was no support beside it, so it shouldn't be like this! Could this item actually be fake?

Neville looked at Anduin in confusion, who slowly came to his side and gently placed his hand on his shoulder.

"What's wrong? You like this sword?" Anduin seemed to have discovered a new continent, staring intently at Neville. "It doesn't look as fancy as the other items."

"It seems so," Neville retracted his hand from the hilt and scratched his head awkwardly. "But it gives me a very solid feeling, and I like that."

"I see." Anduin nodded thoughtfully, then reached out and gently tapped the stone sword. "Alright, now you can lift it."

"Really?" Neville looked at Anduin suspiciously, then tried to grab the hilt again. Sure enough, this time the feeling was completely different from before.

"So light!"

Neville lifted it with one hand, then stared at the stone sword in his hand with surprise.

What was going on? It had felt like it was connected to the Earth just now, but why did it suddenly become so light? The weight of this sword was now almost the same as an ordinary wooden stick.

Although the weight of the stone sword had changed dramatically, Neville could still feel a terrifying power contained within it, and that sense of heaviness had not disappeared. It was as if something was gently gripping his heart.

"Does it have a name?" After truly holding it in his hand, Neville found himself liking this unremarkable stone sword more and more.

"Yes," Anduin nodded kindly. "Its name is [Meteor], and the hidden ability is also called [Meteor]. But I can't demonstrate its function to you now. This venue can't withstand the destruction of [Meteor]."

"It's very strong?" Neville heard Anduin's implication. He hadn't hesitated at all when demonstrating the other two pieces of equipment.

"Not bad," Anduin didn't deny it. "I can only say that [Meteor] is a good sword that can pose a threat to me now, but it's definitely not something you can try now. The minimum standard for using [Meteor] is at least ★★★★ in constitution, strength, and agility, and at least ★★★ in intelligence. Otherwise, not to mention controlling it, the user will injure themselves. After all—this is a sword that can manipulate gravity!"

"Gravity?" Neville, who came from a wizarding family, had no concept of this physical term, so he could only mutter in confusion, then return [Meteor] to Anduin.

"Keep it up, Neville. I've been looking for a master worthy of [Meteor]. As long as you can meet the minimum standards for using it, I'll let you try it." Anduin was much gentler with Neville than with Ron.

Anduin knew Neville's nature. Compared to Ron, who was somewhat impetuous, Neville actually hid inferiority deep in his heart, so Neville needed more encouragement, while Ron needed a good scolding.

After leaving the [Meteor] display, Anduin found that Malfoy had also found his favorite item.

It was a scepter with a similarly 'special' shape, but compared to the simple and unadorned [Meteor], it was the other extreme.

This scepter was just too… flamboyant!

It was a short scepter about one meter long, with fine golden patterns dotted on the milky white body of the staff, looking quite gorgeous, even dazzling. The top of the scepter was three angels back-to-back, wearing armor.

Above their heads, in the very center, was a golden orb, which was constantly emitting a warm light like a small sun.

The entire scepter was made of gold and white, exuding a sacred and noble aura, and just looking at it made people feel warm.

At this time, Malfoy had taken the scepter from the display stand, first caressed it with great affection, and then posed in the scene in a very ostentatious manner.

Don't mention it, this exaggerated scepter and a head of golden hair Malfoy are quite matched, so that the temperament of the whole person has been sublimated.

"Professor, this prop is so handsome, it must be the most powerful legendary prop in your hand, right?" After Malfoy indulged himself, he immediately looked at Anduin eagerly, trying to get an affirmative answer from him.

"Uh… it's okay." Anduin couldn't stand Malfoy's fiery gaze, and he really couldn't bear to tell the other party that this thing was actually a replica of a certain Holy See artifact, and he actually had seven or eight different shapes in his hand, which he wouldn't feel bad about losing.

"Just okay?" Malfoy was obviously a little dissatisfied with Anduin's answer, but he still stared at the scepter in his hand with a very doting look, and then asked as if he had reacted after a while, "By the way, what's the name of this scepter? It must be very cool, right?"

"It, it's called… [Angel's Staff]." Anduin was disgusted by Malfoy's greasy eyes, and then temporarily made up a name for the scepter.

That's right, this scepter didn't even deserve a name before in Anduin's place, in fact, nearly half of the equipment in the entire collection room didn't have names.

After all, most of them were experimental products made by Anduin at random. Making these equipment was, on the one hand, to develop new products for Silver Flash Trading Company, and on the other hand, it was research out of interest.

He wasn't idle enough to take a name for each one, it would be too much trouble.

"Wow! Angel's Staff! Sounds very powerful!" Malfoy rubbed the scepter in his hand with a radiant look. "Presumably its power must be very powerful, is this the ultimate weapon that can destroy the world once it is used?"

"Uh… strictly speaking, it has basically no power, this is actually an auxiliary equipment." Anduin could feel Malfoy's love for this scepter, but he couldn't bear the other party's enthusiasm.

"Auxiliary equipment?"

"Yes, the main ability of the Angel's Staff is [Purification] and [Healing]." Anduin was still seriously fulfilling the duties of a professor at this time, explaining carefully to Malfoy,

"The so-called [Purification] is to remove the negative state for the casting target, which includes some curses, petrification, freezing and other negative effects."

"Of course, this also depends on the caster's ability, and the strength of the negative effects on the target. Particularly stubborn negative states, even the Angel's Staff cannot completely remove."

"And [Healing] is even simpler, it is somewhat similar to the [Restore as Before] recovery spell, but [Healing] has no effect on inanimate dead objects, but it has a better effect on living things, and can also treat some diseases."

"If you really want to talk about power." Anduin pondered for a moment, "The materials for making the Angel's Staff are not bad, so it is actually very hard, and it is strong enough to hit people directly."

"In addition, the [Purification] and [Healing] magic it casts are very pure positive energy, which can also cause good damage to black magic creatures with negative energy such as living corpses, so the Angel's Staff is a kind of alternative nemesis of darkness."

"That is to say, the [Angel's Staff] is actually a medical legendary prop?" After listening to Anduin's introduction, Malfoy's expression was a little disappointed.

But he really liked the appearance of this scepter, so he comforted himself, "The title of nemesis of darkness is also very good, at least you don't have to be afraid when facing dark creatures."

"It is a dark creature with heavy negative energy." Anduin corrected, "It actually has no lethality to black magic creatures such as werewolves, hags, and giants, and may even bring positive benefits to them instead."

"Ah? Then isn't it useless?" Malfoy pouted a little unwillingly. After seeing Anduin show Ron the Berserker Axe, he was very envious of similar attack equipment.

"How can it be useless? Equipment with healing effects is very rare. Don't think that only powerful equipment is good. I know a similar piece of equipment that can be called a holy artifact. It can heal hundreds of people at the same time. When used on one person, it can even make the target in an immortal state in a short time."

Anduin seemed to recall something interesting. He had seen the power of that holy artifact before, and that's why he had the idea of ​​replicating it.

"So magical?" Malfoy was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then stared at the Angel's Staff in his hand again with fascination.

"No matter how magical it is, it has nothing to do with you now." Anduin was afraid that Malfoy's saliva would flow onto the scepter, so he snatched it away.
