Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Challenges (1)
The following day, Arthur immersed himself in the Room of Requirement.
He made equipment for a specially designed training room for practicing magic.
Inside, there were various targets and anti-magic machines, and Arthur released his magic.
He noticed that his magical power was recovering five to six times faster, and his ability to perform quiet and wandless magic had also strengthened.
Now, he could be called a walking magical battery.
After being hit repeatedly for a whole day, Arthur finally regained control of his magic.
Arthur felt that his current strength had reached the level of a professor. While he couldn't say for others, he was confident in fighting someone like Professor Snape.
Checking his personal panel, it was indeed a huge improvement for him.

Bloodline: Arcanist Wizard (Awakening in progress, expected to fully awaken at 18 with a pseudo-legendary level of magical power)
Magical Power: 55.4

Potion Brewing Talent: 7

Looking at his system panel, Arthur was extremely satisfied. It was only his first semester, and his strength had already reached this level.
By the time Voldemort returned, he would likely be at a pseudo-legendary level.
Although the gap between pseudo-legendary and professor levels was just one rank, the difference between the two ranks was greater than the gap between Muggle and professor levels.
In the past century, only three people had reached this level.

As he walked out of the Room of Requirement, he saw Hermione standing by the entrance of the Headmaster's office, always arguing with a stone statue.
"Let me in! I have something very important to discuss with Professor Dumbledore!"
"Apologies, without the password, you cannot enter," the expressionless stone statue replied, coldly rejecting Hermione.
"Why are you here, Hermione?" Arthur asked, feeling puzzled.
"Arthur, what are you doing here?" Hermione shouted as if she had found a savior.
She said to Arthur, "Someone broke into the fourth floor! It must be Professor Snape! Harry and the others are guarding the entrance, waiting for me to bring Professor Dumbledore!"
Arthur banged his head when he heard this. He had forgotten all about something so important while he was practicing magic.
Without hesitation, Arthur recited the password to the bronze statue.
"Sherbet lemon!"
The statue hesitated for a moment but then split apart, revealing the entrance. Arthur walked in confidently, with Hermione following closely behind.
Unfortunately, Professor Dumbledore was not there.
Arthur spoke in a deep voice, "Professor Dumbledore is not here. We need to go to the fourth floor. I'm afraid Harry and the others might have already rushed in."
Arthur vaguely remembered from the original story that Harry didn't wait for Professor Dumbledore and rushed in with his friends.
In a state of confusion, Hermione had no choice but to follow Arthur's lead. The two of them quickly made their way to the abandoned classroom on the fourth floor.
Harry and Ron were anxiously waiting at the entrance of the classroom.
To be honest, Arthur was somewhat surprised when he saw that Harry didn't rush in.
After all, the chosen one has always had a unique style—recklessness!
It seems like he's being quite restrained today.
"Harry, Professor Dumbledore is not in his office, and we can't find him anywhere for now."
When hearing this, Harry became even more anxious and made up his mind.
"Let's go, we'll go in together. Arthur, you're so powerful, we can definitely stop Professor Snape."
Arthur didn't try to stop him either and thought it would be a good opportunity to see the challenges set by the other professors.
As they entered, they saw Fluffy, the three-headed dog, just as before. Arthur immediately transformed a nearby stool into a harp and played a tune.
Fluffy instantly fell to his knees.
However, Harry, who was standing next to them, felt something strange.
'Why did the image of himself riding a broom suddenly pop into his mind?'
He shook his head to clear his thoughts and quickly dismissed his idea.
Hermione couldn't help but admire how a terrifying magical creature like Fluffy could be defeated by a piece of music.
"Sure enough, Professor Snape is really a fool. Last time, he must have been bitten hard by Fluffy," Hermione said.
Ron, on the other hand, gloated. As long as Professor Snape was in trouble, this foolish boy would be happy for the entire semester.
"Alright, stop thinking about useless things. Are you all ready? We're about to jump," Arthur said.
Arthur walked up to the trapdoor and pulled it open with force.
"Are you sure it's safe?" The three looked down and exchanged glances.
It was so dark that it seemed like a black hole. It was too deep to see it.
Arthur set an example for the others by taking a small step forward and jumping down.
Well, even though he knew there was Devil's Snare below, Arthur wasn't going to rely only on his memory for safety.
He cast a Levitation Charm in mid-air and slowly dropped to the ground.
"There are soft plants down here! It's safe! Jump down!" Arthur called up.
"Come on, Hermione, I'll catch you like I did last time. Trust me," Arthur shouted again.
