Capítulo 68: Chapter 68: System Lottery
"Lockhart, I suggest you strengthen your physical training in the future. Your melee combat ability is too poor," Kaecilius said teasingly after their battle. Despite losing the first round, he had successfully won the second, making it a tie overall.
Lockhart looked around at the numerous battle traces and nodded with a wry smile. He had used many spells like Body-Bind, Confringo, and Transfiguration, but Kaecilius, now on guard, dodged most of them. Occasionally, a few spells hit their mark, but Kaecilius's defenses held firm. Despite Lockhart's efforts to maintain distance, Kaecilius eventually closed in, overpowering him in close combat.
Lockhart took Kaecilius's advice to heart. This failure highlighted a common weakness among wizards from the Harry Potter world: poor physical combat skills. Strengthening his physical fitness would make him more resilient in future battles, even if he couldn't match Kaecilius. Most wizards would struggle to resist him.
Reflecting on this, Lockhart considered ways to improve his physical training. Kamar-Taj's sorcerers had stringent physical fitness requirements, necessary for wielding Vishanti's power without being overwhelmed. Only those with exceptional talent and strong energy control could handle large amounts of Vishanti's power without risk.
Then, Lockhart decided to use the system's lottery. "System, give me a lottery draw," he called softly, eyeing Kaecilius. Over time, Kaecilius's approval rating had reached 60, meeting the criteria for the lottery.
With his thoughts focused, Lockhart consumed a large amount of reputation points, conducting 20 consecutive draws and consuming 20,000 points.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining - a pure spiritual power."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining portal magic."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining soul projection magic."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining enhanced physical power."
"…"
Lockhart was pleasantly surprised by the results. Whether it was because this was his first draw in a while or the system understood his needs, the quality of the draw was very high. However, the magic he most desired was still missing.
"Draw again, consume 20,000 reputation points, and draw 20 more times," Lockhart instructed.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining - mirror dimension magic!" "Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining portal magic!" "Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining pure spiritual power." "…"
In this new round of draws, the rewards were still impressive, despite some repetitions. At least, the magic Lockhart was most interested in had been acquired.
"Receive the portal magic."
"Receive soul projection magic."
"Receive the mirror dimension magic." "…"
With a slight mental command, Lockhart received all the rewards he needed one by one. At this moment, Kaecilius watched Lockhart with interest, assuming he was reviewing their recent battle. Combat experience requires constant review and summary to improve efficiently.
Lockhart returned to his senses and looked at Kaecilius. "Kaecilius, thank you," he said sincerely. Lockhart owed much of his Kamar-Taj magical knowledge to Kaecilius.
Glancing at the battle-damaged training room, Lockhart flicked his wand and said urgently, "Reparo!"
In an instant, the room was restored to its original, pristine state. Kaecilius, impressed, admired the unique magic of Lockhart's world.
"Sure enough, the magic in each world has its own uniqueness," Kaecilius remarked.
Lockhart smiled modestly. "Our life magic has indeed developed uniquely over thousands of years, but we lack in close combat."
Kaecilius nodded. Through their battle and conversation, he had learned that the physical fitness of wizards in Lockhart's world was only slightly better than that of ordinary people. They didn't specialize in close combat like Kamar-Taj sorcerers. However, Kaecilius was puzzled by Lockhart's combat experience, which was not weak despite his physical limitations. He didn't dwell on it, assuming that a skilled mage would compensate for their shortcomings.
"Lockhart, after our battle, how do you feel about your magic? What's changed?" Kaecilius asked curiously.
Lockhart considered his response. "The transformation of my magic power has significantly increased its strength and control. I feel more confident in my abilities, especially with the integration of Kamar-Taj magic."
Kaecilius nodded thoughtfully. "That's good to hear. It's important to continue refining and integrating your magic. Our battles will help you identify areas for improvement."
Lockhart agreed. "Absolutely. I appreciate your guidance and look forward to more training sessions."
With a mutual understanding, the two prepared for further practice, both eager to refine their skills and strengthen their bond.
