Chapter 339: Disapparate
Chapter 339 Apparition
Fred is right, they really can't change the itinerary.
Early the next morning, the Weasley family set off to visit Bill as planned.
The Burrow, which had always been lively, suddenly became quiet, and Kyle felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
August is now about a week away, and Fred and George are away. In order to find something to do for himself to kill some time, Kyle found Chris.
“You want to learn how to apparate?”
"Yes." Kyle nodded and said, "Can it be done?"
"Can you tell me why?" Chris asked puzzledly: "You shouldn't need this now...Apparition is prohibited at Hogwarts, and you don't need to do it back home.
Furthermore, the Ministry of Magic stipulates that Apparition is only allowed to be learned by wizards over the age of seventeen. If you are discovered, you may still be in trouble. "
The process of learning to apparate is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may leave your arms or even your head in place.
Watching a part of your body appear somewhere else is not a pleasant experience, and it is a huge challenge to the wizard's mental endurance.
In history, when a young wizard was learning to apparate, he immediately collapsed and turned into a stupid squib because he saw his headless body.
And this is not an isolated case.
In order to prevent this from happening frequently, there is a rigid rule that wizards under the age of seventeen are not allowed to learn Apparition.
However, in Hogwarts, you can study in the sixth grade, presumably to take care of those slightly older students.
In this regard, the Ministry of Magic also turned a blind eye. After all, sixteen and seventeen years old are not much different, and with the professor watching, there will be no surprises.
But Kyle is only fourteen years old now...strictly speaking, he is even thirteen years old, so he definitely cannot study.
"It doesn't matter, I have this..." Kyle stretched out his hand and showed the ring on his hand.
“If someone discovers it, I’ll just say it’s the effect of a magic item.”
Two weeks ago, Diana returned the ring to him, and the number of Apparitions was increased to three times again.
“In that case...okay.” Chris hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
Since Kyle has always been very reassuring in recent years, Chris rarely objects to his requests, even if they are slightly excessive.
Of course, if it is extremely excessive...for example, if you want to learn the Death Curse, it will definitely not work.
However, Apparition is more of a test of mental endurance. Regarding this, Chris still believes in Kyle.
Now that he had decided, Chris did not hesitate any longer. In the afternoon, he applied for a week's paid leave from the ministry because he was going to Romania, and then took Kyle to an open space in the north mountain.
Few people go there, and they won't be seen by people in the village below. It's a good place to practice apparation.
Several owls flew over together and landed on the surrounding trees.
“Before studying, there are two things you must remember.”
Chris said seriously: "When apparating, you must have a clear enough memory of the place you are going to arrive. The more detailed the better. This will effectively prevent you from appearing in mid-air or getting stuck in a tree. situation."
“Also, unless you can disapparate as easily as eating and drinking, never use this ability in combat...the enemy will not help you put your separated head back together.
You can use the ring if necessary, it will not put you in danger of splitting. "
Kyle nodded.
"The next step is the most basic content, goals, determination, calmness..."
“Determine your goals, I’ve just said this, let’s get right to the most important part… Make up your mind and let the idea of going there fill your body from your brain.
If you have any hesitation or unconfident thoughts during this process, then the magic will be disturbed, causing part of the body to stay in place.
Finally, stabilize your mentality and allow yourself to move calmly... If you really feel nervous, you can also spin in circles, which should make you relax a little. "Chris explained it very carefully and demonstrated it three times before agreeing to let Kyle give it a try.
He threw a stone casually.
“That’s your target, remember what I just said...”
Kyle took out his wand and took a deep breath. Gradually, the only thing left in his eyes was the stone...
It must have been that Kyle had disapparated many times before, and Kyle naturally entered that familiar state... like being thrown into a drum washing machine.
"Snapped!"
With a spinning feeling and a burst of explosions, he successfully appeared five meters away.
Kyle quickly checked his body.
Very good, my arms and legs are all there, and my head is still in the same place...
“Although there are some minor flaws, it’s good to be able to do this in the first try.”
Chris smiled and came to where Kyle was standing before and picked up a few hairs from the ground.
“I think you must have been distracted at the moment when the squeezing feeling occurred. This is also the most difficult problem to solve.”
"try again."
Chris threw another stone, "If you want to learn to apparate, you must try to get used to it and ignore the squeezing feeling caused by changing space."
Kyle's face became serious.
Now, besides wanting to learn how to apparate, he had another serious reason to keep his hair.
If it is a normal split, the magic power of apparation will still remain in the wound and connect the body. As long as it is connected in time, there will be no problem.
But if it is hair, it is difficult to find where it is separated. The more it falls, the less it will fall.
The second time he Apparated, Kyle was still a little distracted, and this time it was more serious. He left half of his finger in place.
Although it doesn’t hurt, it does feel a bit scary.
Chris quickly connected him and applied some white essence that can speed up healing to the connection.
“Why do I feel that you are more nervous than before...”
"Nothing." Kyle laughed twice and said nothing.
He couldn't say that he was nervous because he was afraid of going bald, so he could only change the subject and said: "Let's do it again..."
After that, it was a whole afternoon of continuous practice.
I don’t know whether it was the seventh or eighth time he tried it, but Kyle had successfully become familiar with that feeling, and nothing was left behind.
Chris was extremely surprised. When he and Diana were in school, it took them five or six classes and failed dozens of times before they barely got used to the effects of Apparition.
This is already a pretty good result. He always thought that Kyle would be similar to them.
But Kyle doesn’t think it’s a big deal.
Seriously... anyone, no matter who they are, as long as they have experienced the rough way of traveling like a phoenix, it will be much easier to adapt to the effects of ordinary Apparition.
