Learning from Snape felt like experiencing an ancient apprenticeship.
When a master teaches an apprentice, he never shows mercy and uses strict methods to motivate the apprentice to grow.
After an afternoon, Vizette's skills became increasingly proficient, and he gained immeasurable knowledge of potions.
Vizette hadn't seen many of the techniques Snape mentioned in the book.
With the Magic Eye, he could see that even the techniques recorded in books were not as efficient or accurate as those taught by Snape.
In the magical world, potions have always been in high demand.
The profession of potion master is synonymous with having no worries about food and drink.
Moreover, Snape is not only a potion master, but also the youngest potion master to date.
Just by helping to process various materials, he could get guidance from a potion master. It's definitely worth more than you think.
The only thing that bothered him was the blood that splattered when he was dealing with the fire dragon's internal organs; the blood had almost completely soaked his robes.
The dragon has a high resistance to magic, as do its internal organs. Even with Scourgify and the Scab Removal Spell, it is impossible to clean them properly.
"Can't you even clean up such a small stain?" Snape frowned slightly. "Didn't Quirrell teach you anything? Or is your head empty, and you haven't learned anything?"
"Composite magic!" A glint flashed in Vizette's eyes when he mentioned Quirrell's name.
"I'm treating the dragon's resistance to magic as a counter-spell, so I'll have to use a combination spell to deal with it!"
Compared to the evil curses and poisonous spells that make up the Sickly Curse, Scourgify and the Scab Removal Spell were the magics he was more familiar with.
He closed his eyes and performed the Guardian Meditation Technique, and his mind immediately became incredibly clear.
He planned to combine Scourgify and the Scab Removal Spell to create an effective composite magic.
Scourgify has a simple effect; it can remove dirt such as dust and feathers.
The Scab Removal Spell goes a step further, not only cleaning away dirt and grime, but also proving quite effective against stubborn stains such as sauces and blood scabs.
"Scour...Geo...Ter...Gify...Ify...Ergeo..."
With the help of the Guardian Meditation Method, various combinations flashed through Vizette's mind.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he finally opened his eyes and confirmed the incantation: "Scourgify!"
He waved his wand, drawing a smooth "S" shape in the air.
A gentle breeze blew through Vizette's robes, creating a vortex on the ground.
Guided by the wand, the bloodstains on the robes were absorbed by the vortex, forming a dark red mist in the air.
"Huh?" Snape's eyes widened, and the muscles in his cheeks twitched.
He quickly composed himself, his expression turning cold again. "Clean up the trash on the ground and throw it all away!"
"Okay!" Vizette snapped out of his daze and quickly replied, pressing his wand down.
Under the control of the wand, the cyclone swiftly roamed around, cleaning up the bloodstains on the ground.
Vizette was overjoyed. Being able to complete this complex spell meant that he had fully mastered the knowledge he had learned yesterday.
"Professor Snape, thank you!" he said sincerely. "If it weren't for your inspiration, I certainly wouldn't have thought of this so quickly."
Snape turned around. "Go throw out the trash!"
Vizette left the office, and silence returned.
Snape looked at the spotless floor and muttered, "A terrifying talent..."
...
As Vizette strolled down the corridor, he was still thinking about composite magic.
This was his first innovative composite magic, and it had great commemorative significance.
"What should it be called? Powerful Cleansing Spell? That seems too ordinary... After all, it can only work on fire dragon blood... Dragon Blood Purification Spell? That seems a bit of an exaggeration..."
He had a bit of trouble coming up with names and really didn't know what kind of name to give this magic.
Before he knew it, he had arrived at Quirrell's office, intending to tell Quirrell about the composite magic.
Quirrell must have gone out; he knocked on the door for a long time but received no response.
This is normal, though, as Hagrid once told him that there was a village called Hogsmeade outside of Hogwarts.
Students are only eligible to enter Hogsmeade and spend their weekends there once they reach their third year.
It is said that it is just as bustling as Diagon Alley, with bars, candy stores, and cafes.
The Hogwarts professors were also frequent visitors to Hogsmeade, often enjoying a drink in the pub; perhaps Quirrell went there.
Vizette found the movable staircase leading to the Great Hall and went down the steps.
"I wonder if modified magic can work on this composite magic?"
During this time, he accumulated a considerable amount of ancient magical power, enough for him to use the improved magic once again.
Instead of just thinking about it, he set out to try and merge the two spells.
This modification was somewhat special; it absorbed all the ancient magical power to obtain a new page.
Ancient Magic: Guide ancient magical powers to cast spells, enhance magical power, cleanse external impurities, and purify the inner soul.
As expected, Vizette did not name the spell, so the name would not appear on the pages of the book.
It was worth spending so much ancient magical power; this magic could actually affect the soul.
Professor McGonagall once said, "To explore the mysteries of magic, a deeper understanding of the soul is an essential step."
Through this period of study, he had begun to develop his own understanding of the concept of the soul.
He had a vague feeling that cleansing his inner soul was the first step in his exploration of the soul.
Without hesitation, Vizette took a deep breath, waved his wand, and drew an "S"-shaped arc in the air.
The wand glowed with a silver-blue light, and the magic was taking effect.
The cyclone not only appeared beneath his feet, but also around the core of the Obscurus.
Since casting the Sickly Curse yesterday, Vizette had been experiencing palpitations from time to time, and malevolent thoughts had been appearing and disappearing intermittently.
This pulsation was even more pronounced when the cyclone was directly facing the core of the Obscurus.
The core of the Obscurus seemed to sense the danger and began to tremble wildly, as if trying to break free from its restraints.
Just then, the cyclone, like a gentle breeze, passed directly through the core of the Obscurus, bringing out a cloud of dark red mist.
As the mist gradually dissipated, the throbbing sensation slowly faded, and the core silently returned to its former tranquility.
"Cleanse the external filth, cleanse the inner soul..." Vizette let out a long breath, a sudden realization dawning on him. "So that's what it means?"
"Not only can it be used to cleanse impurities, but it can also purify the negative effects of dark magic... So let's call this spell the Purification and Cleansing Spell!"
...
