Ch203- Cloaking Technology Magic


"Master Harry, have you considered the possibility that Slytherin's enchantments might react differently to Parseltongue?" Nigel's voice was calm, yet it carried a hint of urgency.

Harry nodded, deep in thought. "I did. But before I use Parseltongue, I need to understand the spells and enchantments in other ways. Then, I'll try Omni-tongue and experiment with different languages to see how they interact. My main goal is to face the basilisk directly; everything else can wait."

Nigel hummed approvingly. "A sound strategy, Master Harry. Focusing on understanding before engaging is wise."

Harry's idea wasn’t particularly groundbreaking or unprecedented. He believed that since the basilisk’s gaze was deadly and an invisibility cloak offered protection, he could possibly create a cloak that allowed him to be seen yet protected him from the basilisk's gaze. It seemed paradoxical—how could one be visible yet unseen at the same time? The solution came to him while watching TV with his Aunt during the Christmas holiday. Doctor Who, who could turn his flying space/time machine into other objects or invisible, inspired the concept of cloaking technology. Coincidentally, the technology was also called a cloak, which made the idea click for Harry quickly. He planned to create a cloak that shifted light in such a way that he would appear in front of people, but his real position would be elsewhere. In a sense, it was a light magic, just with a little twist. Literally.

Taking the books about invisibility cloaks, Harry read aloud, hoping to find some practical applications for his idea. "Invisibility cloaks are typically made from Demiguise hair, which grants the wearer near-perfect invisibility," he began. "However, the effectiveness of these cloaks diminishes with age as the magical properties weaken over time."

Nigel interjected. "You need a more advanced approach, perhaps combining magical and non-magical techniques. The challenge lies in making yourself appear visible while ensuring you are not actually seen."

Harry nodded, flipping through the pages. "This book mentions using advanced charms and enchantments to enhance the cloak's properties. Maybe I can adapt these spells to create a different kind of invisibility."

Nigel hummed thoughtfully. "Consider integrating your knowledge of light manipulation from the Lumos spell. You've already experimented with changing light's color and intensity. Perhaps this can be a foundation for your new cloak."

Harry grabbed a notebook and began jotting down ideas. "I could use the principles of light refraction and bending. If I can create a spell that manipulates light to project a false image of myself while hiding my true position, it might work."

"Precisely, Master Harry," Nigel responded. "By using a combination of light-bending charms and protective enchantments, you can achieve the desired effect. It’s like creating an optical illusion on a grand scale."

Harry immersed himself in his work, sketching diagrams and writing out spell combinations. He spent hours experimenting with different incantations and wand movements, testing how they affected the light around him. Each trial brought him closer to his goal, refining his approach with each attempt.

Harry flipped through the pages, noting the detailed descriptions of various invisibility cloaks used throughout history. "This won't do," he muttered. "I need something different, something more than just hiding from view."

Nigel, always keen to offer his perspective, chimed in. "Master Harry, while the traditional magical approach has its merits, perhaps you might consider integrating muggle science into your strategy. After all, your idea of manipulating light to create a cloak that not only renders you invisible but also protects you from the basilisk's gaze is quite innovative."

Harry nodded, acknowledging Nigel's point. "You're right, Nigel. The books focus too much on magical properties without considering the possibilities of combining them with muggle technology." He set the book aside and reached for another, determined to find something useful.

The next book was equally unhelpful, filled with enchanting techniques that seemed disconnected from the principles he needed. Frustration began to build as Harry realized that the magical world had its limits in explaining the science behind invisibility. "I need to look into muggle physics," he said, a note of determination in his voice.

"Indeed, Master Harry," Nigel agreed. "Muggle physics, particularly the study of light and optics, could provide the key to your innovative cloak. Combining magical enchantments with scientific principles could yield a solution far superior to anything found in these tomes."

Harry found some of the books he collected from the muggle libraries in the system database and started to study advanced optics and light laws. He sat surrounded by stacks of books, flipping through pages filled with complex diagrams and equations. The more he read, the more confused he became. Harry's brow furrowed as he struggled to grasp the intricate concepts of light refraction and reflection.

"Diffraction... interference... how does this all come together?" he muttered, rubbing his temples in frustration. His eyes scanned the dense text, but the more he read, the less it made sense.

Sighing helplessly, Harry asked, "How many points do I have, Nigel?"

Nigel's voice responded promptly, "A little over two thousand, Master Harry."

Harry grimaced. "Upgrade my Physics talent to High-Tier, please. I barely understand anything I read."

Nigel chuckled, "Sure thing. Though non-magical talents are not expensive, High-Tier is still high-tier. Fifteen hundred points will be deducted."

Harry felt the pain but gritted his teeth. "Deduct it."

Within seconds, Harry felt a rush of knowledge and understanding flood his mind. The complex theories and concepts that had been eluding him suddenly became clear. He could see how the principles of light could be manipulated, bent, and refracted to create the cloak he envisioned.

"Ah, much better," Harry said, a newfound confidence in his voice. He turned back to the books, his mind now processing the information with ease.

As Harry delved deeper into his studies, he began to sketch out ideas and potential spell-science combinations. His mind was now buzzing with a clearer understanding of advanced optics and light manipulation, thanks to the recent upgrade to his physics knowledge.

He laid out several books on the table, both magical and non-magical, and started to draw parallels between them. "Alright, Nigel," Harry began, "let's break down the science of light and see how we can integrate it with our magical spells."

"Master Harry, your determination is admirable. Start with the basics: light is both a particle and a wave. It can be bent, refracted, and reflected. Magical light, however, can be molded with intent," Nigel remarked, his voice tinged with approval.

Harry nodded, sketching out the wave-particle duality of light. "So, if I can create a spell that manipulates light to create a false image of myself, it needs to bend light around me in a way that projects a holographic image elsewhere."

"Precisely," Nigel agreed. "Consider using the Lumos charm as a base. Now, think about bending the light it emits to project your image in another place that mimics yours."

Harry flipped through the pages of a book on advanced charms and jotted down some notes. "If I combine Lumos with a refraction spell, I might be able to create a light field that projects an image. But it needs to be more than just a projection. It has to interact with the environment to look real."

"Indeed, Master Harry. Adding a layer of illusion magic might achieve the desired effect. The Illusio charm, for example, could provide the necessary realism," Nigel suggested.

Harry's eyes lit up. "That's a great idea, Nigel. I can use Illusio to add texture and depth to the light projection."

Harry then leaned back, heaving a big sigh. "So far so good, but I am missing a few crucial elements, Nigel."

Nigel hummed thoughtfully, his tone ever so slightly mocking. "And what might they be, Master Harry?"

Harry tapped the pencil on the word "basilisk" in his notes and said, "It's a snake, after all. Snakes have other sensory organs, not just eyes. Heat, sound, smell, and other senses have to be equally tricked. This is getting frustrating." He then took a deep breath to refocus. "Remember one of the first spells the system gave me?"

Nigel chuckled. "Oh yes, my master plan to teach you that intent is mightier than spell. Quite the cunning approach, if I may say so."

Harry rolled his eyes. "Well, you made me believe the Muffliato charm is more than just creating a buzzing sound. It can create sounds in various locations at will. Now I can apply that to the new cloak I want to create. The problem is, I haven't seen this spell in any of the books I've read, not even in the Hogwarts library. Seriously though, where did you find this spell, Nigel?"

Nigel's voice took on a mysterious tone. "It was a gift. Now let's focus on the other senses."

Harry nodded, diving back into his books. He understood that tricking the basilisk required more than just visual deception. He needed to consider all the sensory inputs that the creature relied upon. "Alright, so I need a spell that can create false heat signatures," he mused aloud. "Maybe a modified version of the Warming Charm?"

"Indeed, Master Harry. You could also consider the Ventus charm to create small gusts of wind, mimicking movements. For smell, a combination of the Aroma Charm and Confundus could mask your scent," Nigel suggested.

Harry scribbled notes furiously, combining these ideas into a cohesive plan. "And to cover sound, I'll use Muffliato to project false noises in different directions, confusing its sense of hearing."
