After the flying lesson, Noah returned to the castle with a group of Slytherins.
As soon as he entered the dungeon, Keya stuck his head out from under his sleeve.
Noah: “…”
"Keya has recovered?" Eve was surprised to see the familiar Keya and leaned over to say hello.
Noah was silent for a while, then opened the sleeves of the loose wizard robe and exposed his arms.
A deep red mark appeared on the pale arm, which had become red and swollen, looking a little miserable.
Noah was silent for a while, then grabbed Keya unceremoniously with his other hand and pulled it off his arm.
"Your arm..." Eve exclaimed in surprise.
Noah put down his arm, letting his sleeves cover the marks, and his silver-gray eyes showed evil: "Did I feed you too much?"
Keya: "?!"
Only then did Keya feel guilty. It spat out the letter and stared at Noah with its two ruby-like snake eyes, trying to get through.
After the molt, Keya unscientifically grew nearly two inches. Combined with the previous two molts, which totaled three inches, it can be seen that Keya's growth rate is gradually accelerating.
The thickness hasn't changed much, it's just a little thicker than before.
But his strength has increased a lot, and the marks on Noah's arm are the most intuitive proof.
It was so painful that he was strangled.
Noah couldn't help but move his arm. In fact, with the activation of the healing magic, the pain in his arm gradually subsided, but there was still a feeling of unreality.
"Do you want to go to the campus hospital?" Eve glanced at Keya and frowned.
"No, I brought medicine." Noah directly stuffed Keya into his pocket.
Eve frowned and looked at him: "Has Keya always been like this?"
Noah: "...it said it was afraid of heights."
Eve: "..."
Snakes are afraid of heights, seems... normal?
Back in the dormitory, Noah threw Keya directly on the bed.
This lazy snake probably realized that he was wrong, and coiled up in a ball obediently.
But Noah was unwavering in his cuteness offensive: "I forgot one thing."
He glanced at the others.
"Um, I remembered that I forgot something, I'll go out and get it!"
"I-I'll go take a look!"
"I'm with them!"
The three roommates who originally came in with him immediately stepped back out in recognition.
Only then did Noah turn to look at Keya again.
Keya: "OWO"
Noah raised his hand. He didn't even draw his wand, he raised his hand to grab it.
The glass box on the side opened, and the stick inside flew out and was held firmly by him.
Then he took out his wand: "Transformation Slate."
This is a hardening spell that makes objects as hard as stone.
This spell was something he saw in the library before.
At this moment, the wooden stick cast with a hardening spell was erected on the bed, and Noah signaled that Keya could continue.
Keya resisted for a moment, but under Noah's cold gaze, the lazy snake could only slowly climb up the branch, and then began to shrink its body.
It wrapped around the branch in circles and circles, strangling the branch like a prey. In less than a minute, Noah clearly saw some cracks appearing on the branch.
Noah: “…”
For a moment, I felt lucky that the snake only left traces on my body, rather than like this stick...
Noah felt a dull pain in his arm bones for a moment.
"Until you learn to relax your body, don't think about me taking it with you."
Noah let go of his hand coldly, and the confused Keya was carried by the tipped stick and fell onto the quilt. It took him a while to realize the seriousness of the problem.
It hurriedly came down from the branch and crawled towards Noah while vomiting a letter of protest, accusing him of mistreating pets.
"If you can no longer control your power, then you are a pet abusing its owner." Noah glanced at him, and he opened his sleeves again. All the traces had been eliminated, but his arms still felt uncomfortable.
Ignoring Keya, he picked up the branch again: "Recover as before."
After casting a repair spell, the cracks on the wooden stick gradually disappeared and he placed it back in the alley.
Noah adjusted the temperature and humidity of the box, lifted Keya and threw it in.
Keya: "!"
Keya began to hit the glass wall with his tail. After three hits, a crack appeared on the box.
Noah: “…”
Keya: "..."
Keya retracted his tail guiltily and circled it several times in an attempt to cover it up.
Noah put down the things in his hands and walked to the glass box: "I almost forgot, it needs to be reinforced."
So Keya watched helplessly as Noah cast a repair spell on the box, and then began to carve new solid magic on it.
…
To engrave the magic array on an object, you don't actually need to directly engrave the entire magic array, but just engrave fixed symbols.
Symbols combined with specific magic power can form a complete magic circle.
It is said that this technology was originally used to directly carve magic arrays on items, but later there were too many thefts and robberies, because if the magic array could be awakened, it would easily resonate, causing the enchanted items to fly out directly or simply become ineffective.
So later someone invented this new enchanting technology, which only needed to carve specific runes and customize the corresponding magic power to achieve the enchanting effect.
Well, the disadvantage is that you need to replenish your magic power regularly.
But compared to those robbing things... it's great.
Although there are permanent runes, it is obviously impossible now with Noah's strength.
At this moment, Noah dug out a small box from his drawer. After opening it, he slowly grabbed the carving tools, from carving knives to brushes, from thick to thin, everything.
This was something he had pestered his parents for a long time before they agreed to build it. Well, it was a wizard product, so it was still okay.
He pulled up a chair, took out the thinnest carving knife, and began to draw runes on the corners of the glass box.
There are already a lot of special characters in these corners. Because the paintings are so small and subtle, you will hardly notice them unless you look closely.
When Noah becomes more knowledgeable, he can carve hidden runes and hide these runes so that they cannot be easily discovered.
But now, he needed to carve new solid runes on the glass box.
Noah looked at the engraved runes and began to conceive of the correct arrangement and position in his mind.
It didn't take long for a criss-crossed prism-shaped magic array to appear in his silver-gray eyes, and he began to move the knife. Before that, he didn't even need to use a brush to outline the pattern before he could do it directly.
The blade of the special carving knife fell on the glass box and made a small mark as easily as tofu.
His movements were very skillful, he was not slow in writing, and he drew a hook-like line in the blink of an eye.
The first rune is drawn.
Noah blinked, relaxed and began to carve the second one.
