Return of Salazar Slytherin

29- You want to learn? I’ll teach you

"Is this a Boggart?"

After Rhys solved the strange fog, Daphne's heart dropped to her stomach again.

Now she is interested in exploring the true identity of this strange mist.

Judging from the characteristics it showed, Daphne felt that it looked a bit like the Boggart mentioned in the bedtime stories told by her father.

After hearing this, Rhys was almost glaring in anger at Daphne.

"Not a Boggart at all!!!" Rhys immediately retorted. He couldn't accept this statement at all. Boggarts would become the most feared thing in people's hearts. If the monster just now was a Boggart, wouldn't it mean that what he fears the most is 'Godric Gryffindor'?!

"It's called the Desire Demon." Rhys gave Daphne a good introduction to what the Desire Demon is.

After holding the bead-turned-Desire Demon in his hand for a moment, Rhys regained his composure.

He took out a crystal bottle from his arms, scraped some chips from the beads, put them into the bottle, and then sealed the mouth of the bottle with fire paint. After the debris fell into the crystal bottle, it "sublimated" all of a sudden, and the bottle was instantly filled with white mist.

While Rhys was doing these things, Daphne stood aside silently, staring at him.

The image of Rhys standing in front of her just now, neatly and expertly dealing with the demon of desire, was deeply imprinted in her mind, making her mood agitated and unable to calm down for a long time.

Powerful and mysterious, this is Daphne's impression of Rhys.

She dared to bet on the honor of her last name that Rhys was no ordinary student, and his identity as a first-year student was most likely a disguise.

As for his true identity, Daphne believed that he would take the initiative to tell her after she got along with him for a long time.

She won't take the initiative to ask until the time is right.

"Although these dark creatures are quite dangerous, their bodies are magical raw materials with a wide range of uses. For example, the desire demon can assist wizards in reading other people's memories, and can also be used to make potions. I have knowledge of over a dozen different types of potions that utilize it.." After taking the samples, Rhys began to introduce the uses of the desire demon to Daphne.

"Wait a minute, you just said that dark creatures cannot be killed, but it - the demon of desire - can be used as a potion. So if we make it into a potion, can't we kill it?" Daphne's eyes sparkled, as if she had discovered a new world.

From Daphne's overjoyed look, Rhyssaw the innocence and purity of a child.

He laughed.

"It's the right idea to have, but this creature can only be killed in theory, but can't be done in practice."

Before Daphne could ask why, Rhys shook the crystal bottle in front of her face.

"It's only this big now because I used magic to compress it tens of thousands of times. You see, it began to restore its original shape as soon as it was in the bottle. If you let it expand, I'm afraid it won't be able to fit in the entire corridor.

So, Miss Daphne. How many pots of potion do you think it would take to consume this desire demon? "

Daphne froze.

"But fortunately, we just need to lock it up so it won't get out and harm others."

After taking a few steps forward, Rhys stopped in front of a stone wall. He touched the wall with his left palm, and a small windowless room appeared out of thin air.

Daphne: "? !"

"I said this is a dungeon." Rhys shrugged, "Isn't it normal to have cells in a dungeon?"

He placed the bead transformed into the demon of desire into the room, waved his hand again, and the walls closed, leaving no trace behind.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Daphne wouldn't have believed that there was a small, dark cell here.

The roadblock has been resolved, is it time to continue further? Daphne looked into the dark corridor, looking forward to it.

The monster called the Desire Demon just now, opened her eyes. Before tonight, she had never even heard of the legend of this monster, but now she saw the real thing.

Daphne's desire for discovery has been ignited, and she wants to know what magical creatures are waiting for them deeper down.

Because Rhys gave her an excessive amount of confidence, she ignored the risks involved in the expedition.

Contrary to Daphne, Rhys, who was responsible for contributing during the expedition, was not optimistic at all.

It was not a good sign to meet the Desire Demon as soon as he entered. Based on his own experience, Rhys judged that the seals in the dungeon might have been damaged in many places.

Some out-of-control monsters also destroyed the seals of other monsters - the Desire Demon was like this. It is still a bit difficult to actively break away from the seal.

In his current state, it would be risky to go in rashly, not to mention that he had a child with him. It would be unwise to act like a Gryffindor.

After a brief moment of consideration, Rhys made a decision: go back the way he came, make enough preparations, then go deep into the dungeon, clear out the monsters, and strengthen the seal.

"Are we going back now?" After hearing Rhys's decision, Daphne couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"It's getting late, we have classes tomorrow."

It was okay if Rhys didn't say it. Once he mentioned this, Daphne felt tiredness pouring out of every corner of her body. Now she just wanted to go back to the soft bed in the dormitory to rest.

Before leaving, Rhys pulled out his wand, pointed at the wall, and recited a spell.

"All protection, detection of obstacles, early warning of obstacle breaking..." After casting six or seven magic spells in a row, Rhys stopped. The seal against the Demon of Desire here was completed.

"Wait, is this the seal you are talking about?" Daphne found that the seal imposed by Rice was different from the seal in her mind.

"Yes, otherwise what do you think the seal looks like? A magic circle with blue light? I just want to trap this dark creature in this cell. To deal with the demon of desire, a few spells are enough."

Compared to when they came, the way back seemed quite long.

Daphne was so tired halfway through the walk that she could only lean on the wall to recover her strength.

Rhys sighed and turned towards Daphne.

"You don't need to worry, I'm just a little sleepy, just wait a second... I can do this.. I won't tell you to carry me or something." Daphne had a determined look in her eyes.

Rhys: Huh?

What are you thinking about? ? ?

He chuckled and cast a Feather-light charm on Daphne.

This spell is a derivative of the levitation charm Wingardium Leviosa that first-year students at Hogwarts must learn.

It can create a buoyant force under the person, making it easier for people to walk, especially when climbing hills.

He could also use a spell to forcibly restore Daphne's physical strength, but this would lead to an overdraft, which would be like destroying one wall to make up for the other. Rhys is not inclined to adopt this method.

Daphne suddenly felt light under her feet, the lead "filled" in her legs disappeared, and she no longer struggled to climb up the slope.

"It's amazing!" She praised from the bottom of her heart.

The two of them walked back to the common room under the leadership of Rhys. Perhaps because today was the opening ceremony, they did not encounter professors or the castle's caretaker patrolling at night along the way.

In the common room, Rhys bids farewell to Daphne and wishes her a good night and sweet dreams.

"Please wait!" Looking at Rhys who was walking towards the boys' dormitory, Daphne couldn't help but call him.

"What's wrong?" Rhys turned back and looked at her calmly.

"Today, those spells you used..." Daphne was a little embarrassed to say it. These spells seemed very profound, and she had never heard of most of them. They were probably the secret magic of other families, and she wanted to learn them as soon as she opened her mouth.

She wanted to learn 'The Magic spells of some mysterious Family', which they must have guarded from generation to generation, isn't that too presumptuous?

"You want to learn?"

Daphne took a deep breath and nodded.

"Okay, I'll teach you." Rhys agreed immediately.

Daphne met his requirements for being a disciple and was a student of the Slytherin House.

As the founder of Slytherin House, Rhys believed that it was only natural for him to teach her some practical spells.

When she succeeds in her studies, she can help him with chores such as strengthening seals. So why not?
