Chapter 204: Sudden Changes and sudden invitations

"Test number 9..."

Another wooden dummy shattered into smithereens.

"Those are magically enhanced to be extremely resistant to damage..."

Punching the non-reinforced ones was like hitting tofu. However, the reinforced ones required him to use at least two-thirds of his strength.

Knowing from personal experience just how resistant those dummies were, he estimated that his physical power had increased by around tenfold from what it was previously.

"That explains all the broken furniture..."

There was probably a more accurate way of calculating this that involved arithmancy or advanced calculus, but he could not do that to save his life.

Harry had always been more the type who learns by doing instead of studying the theory behind it.

He glanced down at his knuckles. They had a few minor scratches but nothing serious, considering the force of the impact just now.

"Enhanced strength, tougher skin, and reinforced bones... those were the effects of the ritual I did, but that ritual failed and these results are much more potent than the ones I expected."

Had the ritual succeeded, he would have... perhaps two or three times more strength.

His eyes had also improved drastically, and he never had the chance to even begin that ritual.

"Morgana claimed the ritual failed because I already had the effects of a previous one in my body."

He knew for a fact that no ritual had ever been performed prior on his current body, meaning... it was something else.

A plate appeared in front of him. The elves already knew what he liked, so he didn't even need to ask.

"Thanks." He took a few bites and then looked at Lyra. "I had to talk with Mom," Harry told her.

"About what?" Lyra asked.

"About me staying in the castle during the Christmas break."

"You want to stay here? Why?"

"Ask Mom later. I explained it to her." He did not feel like repeating himself.

"That's too bad..." Ginny joined their conversation. "I was hoping that you could give me a few more flying lessons during the break."

Harry glanced towards the redhead girl. "I heard from Lyra that you have been doing a great job. Sorry, I haven't seen any of your games yet."

"It's okay... I know you are busy." She looked a bit down.

"Tell you what, I can give you a few more lessons after the break, and I promise to go watch your first game of the year," Harry told her.

Ginny had a beaming smile on her face now. "Really?!"

"Cough, cough... excuse me..."

They all looked up to see who it was and most of them were surprised to find none other than Pansy Parkinson, standing in front of their table, looking at Harry with her intense black eyes.

"Harry, may I have a moment of your time?" She requested politely.

He put down the fork and stared at the black-haired Slytherin.

She had been quieter than usual this year, so it was very rare for her to approach him out of the blue now.

"What can I do for you, Pansy?"

"I was wondering... if you are not busy this afternoon... would you accompany me to Hogsmeade?"
