Chapitre 23: Flying.
A few days after the letter was sent, the Daily Prophet sales skyrocketed. Rita has done her homework and brought out a masterpiece.
[Hogwarts Defence against Dark Arts professor and ex auror suspected to be a dark wizard - By Rita Skeeter.
In an interesting turn of events, John Dawlish, ex auror and DADA professor at Hogwarts has been killed within the castle, when he made an attempt to steal a magical artifact. Hogwarts Professors tried to capture the wizard as he started throwing unforgivables in the castle. Our sources in the ministry say that as he attempted to throw out a dark curse of considerable magnitude, one of the professors stabbed him in the heart. Ministry liaisons with the Daily Prophet have confirmed dark wizards were involved in this operation. The artifact was destroyed in the kerfuffle.
But what begs question is how Headmaster Dumbledore who interviewed the DADA professor did not see that he was a dark wizard. The prophet also found information that during this fiasco, Dumbledore was in the ministry building. Only when the culprit was taken down did he appear. Dear parents, after the troll blunder and now a dark wizard was teaching your kids for a year. Can you believe it? It seems like any dark witch, wizard or even a troll can waltz into Hogwarts when Albus Dumbledore is the headmaster.

'Damn you, you poisonous beetle and a sorry excuse for a witch. How dare she sully my name. I could have stopped the troll and that bumbling Dawlish with my pinky. I didn't because I am a great mentor. I wanted Harry to fight a desperate battle with the wizard and only then can I manip...ahem...make him grow. That bald ponce with his thumping shoes foiled all my plans'.
"My stone" he looked melancholic at the site of the sooty black coal-like stone lying on his table. 'I will make that bald, shoe thumping, thunder stealing wizard a lesson he won't forget. He is being awarded an Order of Merlin at the expense of me, the great white wizard Albus'.
"Lemon drops Albus, you must have lemon drops" Dumbledore mumbled.
[Leo/Quirrell POV]
'So this is a Nimbus 2000. I looked at the sleek broomstick that I asked Misky to buy'.
"Time to take this out for a spin" I said to Misky and mounted the broom.
'The enchantments are truly amazing. Magic still seemed to impress me. It did not feel like sitting on a wooden stick but like sitting on an expensive leather cushion. I slowly pushed up with my legs and floated. Slowly I took it to the skies. As I kept circling my beachside villa, I felt free. Free from all the feelings of danger, free from grading papers, and free from what the future has on hold for me. I kicked it up a notch and started flying faster and faster. While the sun started to set, I steadied myself up around 20 meters above the ground. The ocean wind was blowing on my face and ruffling my hair. There was nothing more magical than peace I thought. Why can't people look past their differences and live a little for themselves?' I thought and slowly watched as the sun dipped down the horizon.
[Since you have a profound understanding of life now, let me tell you how you can advance to level 3. You have to have a similar profound revelation or understanding of magic. Level 3 changes a person's magic so that the magic mirrors what you are and what you want to be.]
"Very good and not confusing at all system" I said sarcastically. "Please give me one good free advice" I asked.
[You need to believe]
"I thought so, thanks" I replied.
For the next few weeks, it has been me trying to work my way through an obstacle course on the broom. I was a passable flyer. I placed certain dummies at various points on which I tried blasting stinging hexes. My accuracy was piss poor. But I was making progress, the key was to steer the broom only with one hand, and like a car, once you get the hang of it you can do it as easily as it is a part of your body.
"Status please, system" I said.

My study on runes and flying was going well. Still I was not an expert in flying.
'Set up a goal for the school break. Be a flying expert, improve runes to advanced, and improve at least one spell to level 4'
Level 4 spell was a kick in the ass. You had to do it 50000 times for getting the qualifying knowledge on how to advance the spell. I think I will work on the easiest one Lumos.
[Mission completed - Make yourself proficient in areal magic. As a candidate to become a great wizard how can you stand on the ground looking up like a fool as your enemy sent hex after hex at you? Reward - Playbook of areal battle maneuvers by Barn Bad Shrinkly.]
"Ha, the thing that will make me an expert in flying is here, let me see that book system" I said excitedly.
As I opened the book, my mouth opened wide and my eyes became red. "Are you kidding me? This is an impossible task. The author should be named Barny Mad Shrinkly."
[Barn Bad Shrinkly was an idiot when it came to a wand, but on a broom, there was never a wizard alive who could hit him even once. No wizard could ever catch him even in a forest terrain where he would be impeded tremendously. If you can use that playbook to 50%, then you will be the most dangerous areal wizard in the world.]
"Are you mad, look at this play, fly around a cubical room of dimensions twice that of the broom and attain full speed, I would seriously be injured doing this crazy stunt" I said.
[That is why you must make adequate preperations. Buy some healing potions and keep your elf on standby. And most important of all believe in me and Barny Mad Shrinkly, peace be upon him wherever he may be.]
