Chapter 110: Achievement Explosion!
"Overall, this suitcase can be gradually upgraded in the future to unlock more functions."
After thinking for a moment, Dylan saw the bright side.
In fact, he didn't need to be afraid of the system asking him for money.
On the contrary, if the system didn't ask him for money, he should be wary.
Moreover, precisely because he had such a suitcase, he had money and a place to spend it.
If he didn't have any items, even if he wanted to spend money, he wouldn't have the opportunity.
—Dylan gave himself a pep talk and some mental conditioning.
"At least with this hundred thousand cubic meters of space, if I encounter any other magical creatures, I can also bring them in to raise."
Dylan leisurely ate half of the small cake in front of him.
Dark chocolate flavored, not bad.
—Dylan just loved eating chocolate and sweets.
"Now I have Umbra and Norbert. Besides that, the unicorn can also be barely considered a mobile warehouse for materials."
These three magical creatures almost covered a considerable amount of material output.
Many potions required their blood, horns, and fur, and these things could even, to a certain extent, replace other materials that Dylan didn't have during the potion brewing process.
Having tasted the benefits, Dylan naturally developed some appreciation for other magical creatures.
He really wanted to gather all the magical creatures in the world under his control.
And this suitcase was the beginning of achieving that goal!
Taking another spoonful of cake into his mouth, Dylan couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
"Last time I secretly met Hagrid in the Forbidden Forest to feed Norbert, I also met that unicorn. I only took a little blood, and after that, I haven't seen it again. Did it run away?"
Dylan suspected that the unicorn didn't plan to get along well with him. He had only taken its blood twice, and it had already run away in bad faith?
"Humph, I should have known to cast a thousand Imperius Curses on it back then! Maybe it would have triggered an achievement reward and turned that unicorn into my pet too."
Dylan pursed his lips and looked at the next achievement.
————————
[Achievement]: I Have a Nimbus!
[Description]: A little wizard with the most high-end flying broom. Aren't you proud? o(￣▽￣)d~ [Unlock Requirement]: Possess a generally recognized high-end flying broom within three years.
[Achievement Reward]: Flying Talent +10 ————————
"Flying talent? Not bad."
In fact, Dylan himself wasn't particularly enthusiastic about flying.
No matter how exquisite the flying skills, they weren't as useful as Apparition.
—Never mind that this spell couldn't be used in certain places.
As long as his proficiency was high enough, no environment or state could prevent him from using the spell.
However, since it was a free reward from the achievement—he might as well take it.
Dylan's gaze scrolled down a bit, and he quickly found the achievements he had just obtained in Knockturn Alley.
————————
[Achievement]: I, the Fool, Never Keep My Word!

[Achievement Reward]: Fool's Aura +1 ————————
[Achievement]: I Am the Enticement
[Description]: Rather than me personally dealing with you, why not have you kill each other!

[Achievement Reward]: Max Level Enticement Charm! ————————
[Achievement]: Dark Newcomer

[Achievement Reward]: Black Magic Talent Super Duper Doubled Affinity ————————
[Achievement]: You Ran Into It Yourself
[Description]: As the newcomer in the dark wizarding world, the man who will definitely become the next Dark Lord, how dare someone ambush you? They're simply courting death!
[Unlock Requirement]: Casually use an Unforgivable Curse to deal with someone trying to ambush you.
[Achievement Reward]: Max Level Random Dark Magic +1 ————————
Looking at the several achievement prompts that popped up, Dylan accepted them with pleasure.
When Professor Snape taught him dark magic, he had already experienced how interesting it was to have a high affinity for dark magic talent.
The spells had just reached his hands, and with just a glance, he could directly reach a proficiency level of three to five.
After practicing for a while, he could directly break through level six, seven, and even eight!
And he could continue to sprint towards max level proficiency!
Even the counter-curses for dark magic were learned as easily as moving his own limbs, smooth and flowing.
—It was simply too awesome!
Black magic talent affinity was an achievement reward he had obtained after mastering the three Unforgivable Curses at that time.
He didn't expect that now he would get a super duper doubled affinity for black magic talent.
After Dylan exchanged for the reward, he immediately felt that his understanding of other dark magic had subtly risen to another level!
He even wanted to go back to school and start reading books!
Dylan was about to check the few dark magic spells he had just obtained.
Suddenly, another system prompt popped up.
————————
[Message]: You have achieved a new achievement!
————————
"Hmm?"
Dylan was stunned for a moment, then clicked on the achievement panel again, looking at the latest achievement prompt.
————————
[Achievement]: Dark Supernova
[Description]: No renowned dark wizard would not be on the Ministry of Magic's wanted list! [Unlock Requirement]: Be wanted and have a bounty placed on your head by the Ministry of Magic.
[Achievement Reward]: Max Level Random Dark Magic +1 ————————
"The Ministry of Magic wants me?"
This was within Dylan's expectations.
"No, I misspoke. The Ministry of Magic wants Karthus?"
Dylan continued to eat the chocolate cupcake in front of him nonchalantly, and also opened the sundae Florean had given him, eating them together.
"If Madam Maeve knew I ate so many sweets today, she would definitely nag me again."
Dylan actually hadn't planned to directly establish his authority when he went to Knockturn Alley this time.
But some people were blind and just wanted to cause trouble.
—Like ambushing him.
What could Dylan do?
He could only give him an Unforgivable Curse.
And Dylan felt that he was still very kind, not even raising his hand to cast Avada Kedavra, only using Crucio—he had been quite lenient.
Therefore, Dylan was unwilling to acknowledge the titles of Dark Lord, Dark Supernova, and Dark Newcomer that the system always gave him.
At most, he was just a little philanthropist.
"But the Ministry of Magic's actions are quite fast. I just finished dealing with those Aurors, and the wanted notice was issued."
Although Dylan hadn't seen the wanted poster yet, the system's achievement had already popped up in front of him. It probably wouldn't be long before another wanted dark wizard appeared in this world.
"This time I've mastered three more max-level dark magic spells, and even the Enticement Charm has been raised to max level. I feel like I'm one step closer to Index."
Dylan's current goal was to master ten thousand max-level spells!
The number of max-level spells he currently mastered had already broken into double digits and was steadily heading towards triple digits.
—Clearly a good sign.
Dylan directly let the three black stars above the system panel crash into his body.
In the next moment, Dylan felt as if he saw many ethereal souls floating around him.
There were humans and magical creatures.
And he raised his wand.
Once.
"——!"
Extremely sharp whistles and wails erupted.
Many of the surrounding spirits frantically fled in the opposite direction from Dylan. The spirits that were a little slower were hit by the spell released by Dylan, and in an instant, their figures began to twist violently, dissolving in mid-air.
However, it seemed that these spirits were not completely dead, but were blasted far away and banished.
Dylan raised his wand.
Another flick of his wand.
A beam of pitch-black light shot from the tip of his wand, striking the soul of a rhino, which let out a muffled roar, then its body shuddered, and it actually shattered directly before Dylan's eyes.
The rhino's soul turned into specks of light, and all other parts dissipated, except for a fragment that shone with a bright golden light, flying towards Dylan.
After absorbing this golden light, Dylan felt that he could even understand the meaning of the surrounding rhino souls' cries of agony.
Finally, he waved his wand again.
The high sky was suddenly and rapidly swallowed by rolling dark clouds. With a "crack," a lightning bolt as thick as a bucket, accompanied by deafening thunder, struck down fiercely.
The earth trembled violently, cracks spread, hard rocks were easily torn apart, and large chunks of soil tumbled down.
In the blink of an eye, the ground collapsed into a huge pit, and cold, eerie mist rose from it.
Dylan looked intently and found that the pit was actually a bottomless pool of water.
The water surface was calm, without a ripple, yet it exuded a chilling coldness that made one's spine tingle.
As Dylan waved his wand, black light danced on the surface of the lake.
In an instant, countless dark shadows surged from the bottom of the lake, and wet, ghastly Inferi broke through the water.
Pale skin, hollow eyes, the stench of decay.
They dragged their heavy steps, walking out of the lake one by one, and soon, before Dylan's eyes, they gathered into a ghastly army that stretched as far as the eye could see.
————————
[Message]: Congratulations on mastering the max-level spell — Profligspiritus (Banish Spirit)! [Message]: Congratulations on mastering the max-level spell — SoulRob Tongue (Soul-Stealing Tongue)!
[Message]: Congratulations on mastering the max-level spell — Mortis Revenio (Return of the Dead)!
————————
"These three spells..."
Dylan raised an eyebrow.
Just from the names, they sounded quite like dark magic.
At the same time, he also received detailed information in his mind about these dark magic spells that he had never heard of or learned before.
Profligspiritus, as the name suggested, allowed Dylan to use extremely evil dark magic to banish ghosts and other such creatures.
"If I used this in Hogwarts, could I possibly banish all the past headmasters in Dumbledore's office?"
As soon as this thought popped into Dylan's head, he quickly dismissed it.
"What's the point of just banishing them? I can't directly kill them."
As for SoulRob Tongue, this spell allowed him to understand the languages of other living beings.
Including but not limited to various human languages, he could even master the languages of other species through this spell.
This meant that if Dylan wanted to understand what a snake was saying, he could directly kill a snake, then extract its soul, and as the system demonstrated in his mind, directly shatter the soul and extract the only useful language fragments.
"This is really quite cruel. Doesn't this mean that if I want to learn languages like German or French, I have to directly kill people?"
Dylan stroked his chin.
Moreover, if he wanted to master the languages of unicorns and dragons.
Did he have to kill a unicorn or a dragon again?
"It doesn't feel particularly practical. I might as well directly use the Imperius Curse or Legilimency, which can also allow me to understand the other party's thoughts to some extent, but it just doesn't allow me to fully master a language."
However, it was still a spell related to souls and language. Regardless of its practicality, mastering a max-level spell would allow him to draw inferences and further master other magical knowledge.
"As for Mortis Revenio..."
Dylan recalled the army of the dead that Dumbledore and Harry encountered in a lake.
"Looks intimidating, but it was instantly killed by a low-health Dumbledore using a Fiendfyre."
Dylan scratched his head.
"For me, this spell isn't very useful, but if I transform into Karthus, this kind of method should help me gain a lot of attention in the dark wizarding world, right?"
Dylan's fingers gently tapped the table.
Then he mixed the cake and ice cream together and stuffed a large spoonful into his mouth.
"Mmm~~ Cool and delicious!"
There were still many achievements in the list that Dylan hadn't finished reading.
Most of them were rewards that weren't particularly important, so Dylan skimmed through them.
Soon, he saw several new achievements.
————————
[Achievement]: Perfectly Ended First Year
[Description]: The entire school year has ended, you have won the favor of the professors and the respect of your classmates, and your house has won the House Cup—a very satisfactory ending!
[Unlock Requirement]: Achieve Outstanding in all exams, Gryffindor wins the House Cup.
[Achievement Reward]: Logical Thinking Ability +10, Magical Power +10, Mental Strength +10 ————————
[Achievement]: First in Year (I)
[Description]: For the first time, you are the undisputed first place in all four houses. Although someone tied with you, everyone knows she is simply no match for you! She only has a slight advantage due to her name! [Unlock Requirement]: Obtain first place in the first-year final exams.
[Achievement Reward]: Open Voldemort's Ability Vault and select one ability to master and make your own.
————————
"This..."
Dylan raised an eyebrow after seeing these two achievements.
At this moment, he felt clear-headed and sharp-witted, his thinking ability greatly improved.
—This would help him read books even more effectively.
"My magical power has also increased a bit, not bad."
Dylan nodded slightly, very satisfied.
"However..."
His gaze fell on the reward for the second achievement.
"Why did I get first place in the year, but the reward is one of Voldemort's skills? Does that make sense?"
Dylan was completely perplexed.
Whether he was using the Unforgivable Curse as Karthus to deal with the person who ambushed him.
Or whether he accidentally made Mr. Borgin give him forty thousand Galleons as protection money.
Even using the Imperius Curse to make those Aurors kill each other.
The achievements for completing these things gave him dark magic as a reward, which was fine.
But why did even getting first place in the year reward him with dark magic, and Voldemort's dark magic at that?
To this, Dylan could only say—
"Oh my god, it's so good!"
After Dylan received the reward for this achievement, he was almost blinded by the spells Voldemort knew.
"My dear Dumbledore, little Voldy knows so many spells?"
Dylan just glanced roughly, and it was the kind of amount that he couldn't finish scrolling through no matter how he tried.
Looking at the spells he knew, although it was already a lot for a first-year little wizard—even adult wizards might not know more spells than him.
—However, compared to Voldemort, it was too far behind!
"No wonder Dumbledore evaluated Voldemort as a powerful and talented dark wizard. Voldemort's research into magical knowledge is probably more extensive than any living wizard now."
—Although the Killing Curse rebounded, Voldemort didn't die. This extremely magic-defying event gave Dumbledore a surprise.
But Voldemort had indeed read many magic books to study dark magic, and he himself was extremely talented.
The so-called magic was truly plentiful.
Dylan roughly flipped through and saw many modern dark magic spells and ancient dark magic spells.
If only dark magic was concerned...
Dylan felt that Voldemort was like the Holy Master, capable of compiling a magic encyclopedia.
"However, if I select an ability, can I directly copy Voldemort's proficiency level as well? Or can I simply learn this magic and master it?"
Dylan saw many dark magic spells that interested him, but these spells basically had their own flaws, or rather, means by which they could be countered.
Moreover, many spells, even twisting the mind was not enough to maintain, and more evil and bloody rituals had to be used as supplements to cast them.
The complexity of the process made Dylan's head ache just by looking at it.
—It seemed that the advent of the Unforgivable Curses was definitely related to Voldemort wanting to be lazy.
"I myself also have several max-level dark magic spells. My offensive means are basically maxed out. For defense, Dumbledore also taught me the Patronus Charm. The spells I'm relatively lacking..."
