Chapter 339: Apparition

Fred was right. They really couldn't change their schedule.

The next morning, the Weasleys set off to visit Bill as planned.

The Burrow, which had been very lively, suddenly became quiet. Kyle was a little uncomfortable for a while.

There was still about a week left before August. Fred and George were not there. In order to find something to do and kill time, Kyle found Chris.

"Do you want to learn Apparition?"

"Yes." Kyle nodded and said, "Can I?"

"Can you tell me why?" Chris asked puzzledly, "You shouldn't need this now... Hogwarts prohibits Apparition, and you don't need it when you go home.

And 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 be in trouble."

The process of learning Apparition is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may leave your arm or even your head in place.

It is not a pleasant experience to see part of your body appear somewhere else. It is a huge challenge to the psychological endurance of wizards.

In history, there was a young wizard who collapsed and became a stupid and dumb Squib when he saw his headless body when learning Apparition.

And this is not an isolated case.

In order to avoid this situation from happening frequently, there is a hard rule that wizards under the age of seventeen are not allowed to learn Apparition.

However, at Hogwarts, they can learn in the sixth grade, which should be to take care of those slightly older students.

In this regard, the Ministry of Magic also turned a blind eye. After all, there is not much difference between sixteen and seventeen years old, and there will be no accidents with professors watching.

But Kyle is only fourteen years old now... Strictly speaking, he is even thirteen years old, so he definitely cannot learn.

"It doesn't matter, I have this..." Kyle stretched out his hand and showed the ring on his hand.

"If someone finds out, I just say it's the effect of a magic prop."

Two weeks ago, Diana returned the ring to him, and the number of Apparitions increased to three again.

"In that case... OK." Chris hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

Since Kyle has always been very reassuring in the past few years, Chris rarely objects to his requests, even if they are a little excessive.

Of course, if it is particularly excessive... such as wanting to learn the killing curse, it will definitely not work.

However, Apparition is more of a test of psychological endurance, and Chris still trusts Kyle in this.

Since the decision has been made, Chris did not hesitate any more. In the afternoon, he applied for a week of paid leave from the department on the pretext of going to Romania, and then took Kyle to an open space on the north mountain.

Few people go there, and people in the village below will not see it, which is very suitable for practicing Apparition.

Several owls flew over and landed on the surrounding trees.

"Before learning, there are two things you must remember."

Chris said seriously: "When performing the Apparition, you must have a clear enough memory of the place you are going to, the more detailed the better. This will effectively prevent you from appearing in mid-air or getting stuck in a tree."

"Also, unless you can make the Apparition as easy as eating and drinking, don't use this ability in battle... The enemy will not help you put your separated head back together.

If necessary, you can use the ring, it will not put you in danger of being split."

Kyle nodded.

"The next step is the most basic content, goal, determination, calmness..."

"I have already said that I have set the goal, let's talk about the most important part directly... Make up your mind and let the idea of ​​going there fill your whole body from your brain.

If you have any hesitation or unconfidence in this process, then the magic will be disturbed, causing part of your body to stay in place.

Finally, stabilize your mind and move calmly...If you really feel nervous, you can also turn around in place, which should make you relax a little."

Chris spoke very carefully, and only agreed to let Kyle try it after demonstrating it three times.

He threw a stone casually.

"That's your goal, remember what I said just now..."

Kyle took out his wand and took a deep breath. Gradually, only the stone was left in his eyes...

It should be because he had performed Apparition many times before, Kyle naturally entered that familiar state...like being thrown into a drum washing machine.

"Snap!"

Accompanied by a feeling of dizziness and a burst of explosions, he successfully appeared five meters away.

Kyle quickly checked his body.

Very good, the arms and legs are still there, and the head is still in the same place...

"Although there are some minor flaws, it's good to be able to do this on the first try."

Chris smiled and walked to where Kyle was standing before, picking up a few hairs from the ground.

"I think you must have been distracted at the moment when the squeezing feeling appeared, which is also the most difficult problem to solve."

"Try again."

Chris threw another stone, "If you want to learn to Apparition, you must try to get used to and ignore the squeezing feeling brought by the change of space."

Kyle's face began to become serious.

Now, in addition to wanting to learn the Apparition, he had another reason to be serious, to save his hair.

If it was a normal split, the magic of the Apparition would remain at the wound, connecting the body, and there would be no problem as long as it was reconnected in time.

But if it was hair, it would be difficult to find where it was separated, and the less it fell, the less it would be.

The second time he Apparated, Kyle still had some distraction, and this time it was more serious, and he left half a finger in the same place.

Although it didn't hurt, the feeling was indeed a bit scary.

Chris quickly helped him connect it and applied some white fresh essence that could accelerate healing at the connection.

"Why do I feel that you are more nervous than before..."

"Nothing." Kyle laughed dryly twice and didn't say anything.

He couldn't say that he was nervous because he was afraid of baldness, so he could only change the subject and said: "One more time..."

Then it was a whole afternoon of continuous practice.

I don't know if it was the seventh or eighth attempt, Kyle had successfully familiarized himself with the feeling and didn't leave anything behind.

Chris was very surprised. When he and Diana were in school, they both spent five or six classes and failed dozens of times before they barely got used to the effects of Apparition.

This was already a very good result. He always thought that Kyle would be similar to them.

But Kyle didn't think it was a big deal.

To be honest... anyone, no matter who it was, as long as he experienced the rough travel method of Phoenix, it would be much easier for him to adapt to the effects of ordinary Apparition.
