Chapter 37: Great improvement

Wilkes thought about it; he could improve his strength so quickly; it is really a significant improvement.

However, this is also because he happened to inherit the "Son of Death" who can enslave the soul before, allowing him to have the ability to enslave the soul in advance, and he can choose to swallow at this moment.

Otherwise, if he wants to use this ability, he does not have to find a way to learn and use special black magic to extract the soul of creatures, or he can directly attack the souls around Hogwarts Castle and try to devour them.

What a fantastic coincidence!?

Wilkes analyzed different sides of using this ability but felt a bit exaggerated about its performance.

There is always a feeling in his heart that this ability must have some limitations, but he still does not know it.

Otherwise, using it rashly would be too bad!

Wilkes was curious and wanted to experience the feeling of increasing strength one more time, so he once again urged the "son of death" to release a giant fluorescent spider.

"Devour the soul!" Wilkes tried to swallow again.

Immediately, the same feeling reappeared in his body, and the magic power was once again rapidly became stronger.

"Huh?"

Wilkes frowned at the end of the strengthening and felt his body change. After using the ability again, his strength rose again, but it was not as remarkable as the first time.

Wilkes had some guesses in his mind, and in order to verify his guess, he released the soul of a giant fluorescent spider again.

"Devour the soul!" Swallowed again.

Suddenly, there was another double strengthening of physical and magical powers, and Wilkes's tightened eyebrows stretched out, but he felt this result was expected.

As expected, the third strengthening was weaker than the second strengthening.

"Sure enough, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Even if it is the ability inherited from the system, it is not perfect." Wilkes's heart was abnormally calm, and he naturally accepted the result.

Wilkes guessed that the reason might be that whether it is physical or magical, the consumption required for strengthening is even more remarkable, or there are other reasons he still does not know for the time being.

Anyway, looking at the temporary experiment, he concluded that the effect will only gradually diminish if a single ordinary soul is swallowed.

However, this is still irresistible, and Wilkes is excited about this ability.

Wilkes raised his left hand and stared at the back of his left hand; his pupils flashed brightly; no matter what the reason was, his enhancement was not to the limit!

In the next moment, Wilkes began to continuously use "Son of Death" and "Devour the Soul" in the space to strengthen himself.

...

It lasted until the morning when the sun shined through the arched stone window into the dorm room, and Wilkes crawled out of the box with a look of energy.

What a night?! A lot of rewards!

Slightly calming down, Wilkes began to withdraw the warning spells that he had set last night, and at the same time, he waved his wand to remove the sleeping spell from his roommates.

He checked again to make sure there are no traces left.

Immediately, Wilkes looked at the box on the ground. This box can't be placed here like this. It is full of his wealth.

However, after thinking about it, for the time being, he didn't have any good place to hide the box, so he had to push the box under the bed for the time being.

However, he was a little worried. Wilkes placed a few protection spells and phantom spells to prevent others from seeing this box in any chance.

When everything was set up correctly, Wilkes sighed softly, but the excitement in his heart could not be suppressed.

"I really want to have a fight, to try my new level of power." Wilkes wanted to know how much stronger he was now compared to before.

Although it can be felt that he is better than before, without a real fight to test it, he is still a little uncertain.

On the other hand, he cannot trust it!

Except for the students and the professors, it would be unrealistic no matter which one was chosen as the target. Wilkes had to find another target. However, he is at Hogwarts now.

Targeting the trolls in the box is unreasonable. However, these trolls are now his private property. Of course, the living trolls are more valuable than the injured or dead ones.

Moreover, powerful attack magic cannot be used inside the box, which is cast with a space-stretching spell; otherwise, it will easily cause the instability of the charm.

That is not the right thing to do.

Since there was no alternative, Wilkes was not in a hurry to try and calm his mind.

After dressing for a while, he walked out of the boys' dorm and planned a simple breakfast. After all, there was a magic lesson in the morning.

The curse class is his favorite class and cannot be missed.

But as soon as he went down the stairs, Wilkes was stunned while standing on the common room stairs.

At this moment, in the common room, there are already a couple of Ravenclaw students sitting and reading, and they are all female students. This is normal; after all, Ravenclaw students are basically like this every day.

However, one of the sitting girls made Wilkes suddenly look uncomfortable and immediately shouted in his heart:

"Luna! Why did I forget Luna? Yesterday, I was too fascinated to read the Potions Book. I forgot her. Luna should still be mad at me now, right?" Wilkes was so confused.

After a while, Wilkes had no choice but to stroll behind Luna, who was sitting with her back to him, and she was reading carefully.

But when he walked a few steps away, then he stopped.

What can he say to her? If it was Hermione, it's okay, you can explain it with a flower, but Luna's character, this trick, seems not to work with her.

"Wilkes." At this moment, Luna, who was reading seriously, suddenly called out softly, lowered her head, and slowly raised her head.

"What's the matter?" Luna turned her head and looked at Wilkes, who was stunned. She looked at Wilkes with cold eyes, tilted her head, and her cute expression remained unchanged.

"Uh...this..." Wilkes froze and sighed in his heart, why every time Luna seemed to have eyes behind, every time Luna could accurately call out the person standing behind her.
