Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts
#94 - Inscribed Runes
After testing it over a dozen times, Professor Bones put down the crystal ball, picked up a new one, and said, "The fifth group's effect is not ideal either, let's test the sixth group for the last time. Read."
Anduin nodded in agreement and continued casting spells.
"Hmm? What's this?" Professor Bones exclaimed, looking at the crystal ball containing the sixth group of runes.
"What's wrong?" Anduin asked, tilting his head.
"Come and see for yourself!" Professor Bones handed the crystal ball to Anduin and urged him to cast the spell again.
Anduin took the crystal ball and cast ultrasound again.
Then, when Anduin looked through the crystal ball, he could clearly see the wave pattern imaging inside. Anduin kept changing the angle, and he could observe the holographic scene of the entire office in the crystal ball, including behind the table that was invisible to the naked eye. The imaging was clear and stable.
"This is? Did we succeed?" Anduin said excitedly, looking at the scene in the crystal ball.
"It seems so, I didn't expect the world composed entirely of sound waves to be so wonderful," Professor Bones also said excitedly.
"It seems that the sixth group of runes is the closest to the finished product. If we optimize it with this group of runes as the core, we will definitely be able to complete this spell!" Anduin was overjoyed. He never expected things to go so smoothly.
"Good, let's start quickly, I can't wait, I knew the ring structure would work." Professor Bones excitedly turned on the rune platform and pulled Anduin to start the optimization work.
The two of them made several fine adjustments to the structure and spacing of the runes on the rune platform, and after repeated tests, they finally determined the most satisfactory rune structure. Professor Bones also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Phew, it's finally completed. Next is to engrave it on the alchemy material. Anduin, are you ready to complete your first alchemy item?"
Looking at the final rune, Anduin's heart was filled with pride, and he excitedly thanked the professor, "I owe it all to you, Professor Bones. I couldn't have completed this spell by myself without you."
"Haha, don't be so humble. Without your wonderful ideas, I wouldn't have seen such a special rune." Professor Bones laughed. As a pure scholar, he felt very satisfied to see the birth of a new rune.
"Regarding the alchemy item, my idea is to make a pair of glasses, composed of polished crystal lenses and Palaser brass, what do you think?" Anduin asked Professor Bones for his opinion.
"I think it's possible. My initial idea was also a mirror or glasses. The glasses are best circular, so that the ring structure can surround the brass frame for a week, and then be imaged in the crystal lens," Professor Bones suggested.
"Well, let's make a monocle, so that one eye can observe the echo image, and the other eye can see normally," Anduin added.
"Good idea, the materials are easy to get, I'll prepare the materials. After you go back, engrave this rune a few more times. I'll notify you in a few days when the materials are ready. It's really exciting, I can't wait to see the finished product now," Professor Bones said excitedly.
Seeing Professor Bones wholeheartedly teaching him for so long, and now helping with the materials, Anduin sincerely thanked him, "Thank you, Professor. You're helping me so much, I really don't know how to thank you."
Professor Bones waved his hand and smiled, "It's nothing, this is the result we completed together, and I also cherish it very much. How about this, I'll prepare two sets of materials, and one of the echo location glasses will be your gift to me."
Seeing Professor Bones being so generous, Anduin nodded with a smile.
In the following days, Anduin practiced engraving runes whenever he had time. The echo location spell was disassembled into two groups of runes, which was relatively simple, but after all, it was not a familiar rune combination, so it wasted a lot of Anduin's time at the beginning, and the number of failures was relatively large.
After several days of practice, Anduin's engraving success rate gradually increased, and because of the long time of practice, the magic input during engraving had formed muscle memory. He could put more energy into paying attention to the accuracy of the engraving, which greatly increased his progress.
On this day, in a new Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Professor Bones greeted him after the class and said that the materials were ready and he could officially start in the evening.
Anduin suppressed his excitement and returned to the cabin, constantly repeating the engraving of the echo location spell. He prepared to adjust his state before engraving in the evening, and even Charles, who came to train, was sent to the side by Anduin to practice on his own.
After dinner in the evening, Anduin came to the door of Professor Bones' office with high spirits.
"Ready? Then let's get ready to start." Professor Bones was very efficient and smiled at Anduin, who was eager to try.
Then Professor Bones took out the prepared materials, which were two processed circular monocles, with dark bronze frames, and the lenses were made of transparent crystal, without any curvature, completely flat lenses, and also equipped with a thin dark bronze chain, which looked very delicate.
"Well, I've been practicing micro-engraving recently. After all, the frame is slender, and I hope I can succeed once," Anduin said with a smile.
"Haha, don't be so troublesome, have you forgotten that we are wizards? You don't need to accommodate these dead objects, you have to let these dead objects accommodate you," Professor Bones said with a smile.
Then Professor Bones placed a lens on a flannel cloth spread on the table, and then took out his wand and cast an enlargement charm on the lens. Under the effect of the spell, the lens deformed and became larger, directly becoming the size of a bone plate.
Anduin suddenly realized that he had fallen into a blind spot and forgot that he could cast spells on materials.
"This spell can last for half an hour. Let's measure the size first, then you practice on wood of the same size, and then I'll cast the spell again, and then you can officially start," Professor Bones arranged in an orderly manner.
Anduin nodded, Professor Bones thought very carefully.
Then Anduin started practicing on a wooden disc of the same size. The first time was not surprisingly a failure. Because the surface of the engraving became curved, Anduin failed to grasp the engraving spacing.
The second engraving was successfully completed, and the time was controlled within half an hour. After all, he had practiced many times, and the rune structure was basically memorized in his mind, so there were almost no mistakes, and he also adapted to engraving on curved surfaces.
