Reversal — Unicorn's Shadow!

In an instant, the Malicious Fire transformed into a snake and slithered towards Ivan.

Ivan, who had read the original book, knew the power of the Fierce Fire very well. It could even destroy a Horcrux. The Fireproof Potion he drank could not resist such a flame.

"Here's the stone, catch!"

As they were about to touch it, Ivan shouted and made as if to throw the stone into the Fire Serpent's mouth.

"No!" Voldemort's serpentine face suddenly contorted, and he forcibly changed the direction of his fire, sending it crashing into a nearby wall.

Ivan glanced at the rapidly melting masonry on the wall and swallowed, then stole a glance at the support clock. Only twenty seconds had passed.

This was the first time Ivan felt that five minutes passed so slowly, but he still tightened his grip on the stone…

Lord Voldemort saw Ivan's actions and knew that he had been tricked. He was furious, but he did not dare to use the Fire Curse again, as he was not certain that the stone would survive the Fire Curse.

However, Ivan's situation did not improve with Voldemort's non-use of the Firebiting Charm, as Voldemort, a Dark Master, knew more than just these spells.

The only thing that kept Ivan going was the constant decline in Voldemort's condition. Quirrell's body had been burned by the flames, and his life force had been sucked out of him.

It could be said that every time Voldemort cast a spell, the last bit of life force would be sucked out of his body. If he ran two more steps, he might immediately fall apart…

And that's what Ivan wants to see…

"Is that all you're good for, hiding?" roared Lord Voldemort fretfully, and he struck again, this time with such force that the pillar Ivan was leaning on exploded in two.

Due to Lord Voldemort's lack of mobility, Ivan was jumping up and down in the spacious room, occasionally altering the grounds with Transfiguration Charms, or harassing Lord Voldemort with Fire Charms, Ten-Thousand Shots, etc.

Voldemort, who was so angry that his body was about to collapse, could no longer hold back.

In the distance, Ivan could clearly see the flesh on Voldemort's charred face shrivel up, and then a large amount of black mist poured out of his broken body and spread towards Ivan.

"Obstacles!" Ivan tried to create magical barriers in front of him, but the black fog was closing in from all sides, and burning it with fire spells did not work.

Ivan managed to cast an Armor Charm on himself before he was completely surrounded, but the black mist instantly broke through.

Ivan didn't know what the black mist was made of, but as it enveloped him, he felt all kinds of negative emotions surge into his mind. What was worse was that the black mist quickly seeped into his body through his nose, mouth, and pores.

The bone-chilling cold spread through Ivan's body, and he felt as if all the heat and life force in his body were being sucked out of him by the black fog. Even his mind, which was racing, was slowly falling into paralysis.

The pendant hanging around Ivan's neck gave off a faint glow, allowing him to remain conscious in the black mist.

However, this protection was not infinite. As time passed, cracks began to appear in the middle of the pendant…

The pendant's protective powers kept Ivan alive for a while, and, more importantly, Ivan felt a warm gush of liquid from his heart as his magical blood flowed through his body.

Ivan, whose mind was frozen, regained his ability to move. A blinding white light appeared on the tip of his wand, and the black fog surrounding him instantly melted away as if it had met its natural enemy…

At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Ivan's head.

[Mission: Promised Revenge, status changed, Bloodline Magic temporarily unlocked, please check…]

Ivan, who had just escaped danger, could not help but take a look.

[Mission: Promised Revenge

Mission Objective: Kill Quirrell

Task description: As you are fighting an enemy, you have temporarily gained Cecilia's approval, and if you wish to retain this power, you will need to fulfil your promise as soon as possible.

Remarks: Bloodline magic Unicorn's Shadow has been unlocked!]

Ivan saw that the question marks in the system's Bloodline Magic column had disappeared and were replaced by the glowing blue shadow of a unicorn!

With the experience card's speed of thought, Ivan was able to master his newly acquired ability in just a few moments. With a wave of his wand, more white light surged out from the tip of the wand, and wisps of it gathered into the shape of a unicorn.

It was just as Ivan had seen it in the Forbidden Forest. It was beautiful, arrogant, and sacrosanct. The only difference was that it was made entirely of white mist and light, making it seem even more illusory and ethereal. Its eyes were red as it stared straight at Voldemort.

"Bloodline awakening?" After the black fog was completely dispersed, Voldemort, as a spellcaster, fell into a daze.

"No…no, this is not an awakening of the blood…" Voldemort retorted.

Bloodline awakening was the ability of a member of an ancient wizarding family to break through a certain threshold in their cultivation, or to activate a special bloodline hidden within their body, in conjunction with their own abilities.

However, the power of these bloodlines was not as strong as before after many iterations. It was hard to say how much their power had improved. It was almost impossible for someone like Ivan to infuse the power of a magical creature into a spell!

Not to mention, the unicorn in front of him was extremely familiar to him. Voldemort was certain that it was the same unicorn that Quirrell had killed earlier. Now that it had appeared before him in such a state, there was only one possibility.

This young first-year wizard in front of him had completed the most dangerous experiment in the wizarding world, the blood-fusion experiment, and survived, stealing a portion of his power!

Ivan, however, took advantage of Voldemort's bewilderment and quickly familiarised himself with his powers. He had the distinct feeling that his vision had suddenly been split in two, one through his own eyes, the other through the unicorn's eyes, and that his brain was controlling two bodies.

"From now on, the offensive and defensive positions have been reversed…" Ivan said as he looked at Voldemort, whose face did not have much flesh due to the excessive draining of his life force.

This was a very magical feeling, and it also gave Ivan incomparable confidence. Moreover, after being chased and almost devoured by the black fog, even a clay figurine would be angry!

Now, finally, it's time to fight back…
