Chapter 42 42. Fly

   Neville has no research on how high a normal 11-year-old boy can jump in place.

   But he can be sure that as long as the boy is a normal person, even if a spring is added to his feet, he will never be able to jump to a height twice his height.

   Unless the boy is a giant cub, even if he is only 11 years old, he is already more than two meters tall.

But it is impossible for Jon to have giant blood now, but the height he jumped up just now is enough to be at the same level as the tallest Hagrid in Hogwarts. This is because the ceiling of the carriage obviously limits his performance, otherwise the three meters is definitely not him limit.

   And before he completed this achievement, he just chanted a levitating spell that was so mispronounced!

"how did you do it?"

  Neville stared blankly at Jon who had fallen to the ground, rubbing his head with excitement and pain on his face, completely unable to figure out how such a thing that violated magic was done.

Jon obviously miscalculated the effect of the Levitating Charm on his body. He could feel that his body had lost about half of its weight. He thought it would be impossible for him to jump to three feet even if he jumped up hard. The height of three meters, but three meters is obviously low.

Roughly judging by how dizzy he was from being hit on the head, Jon felt that if there was no limit from the ceiling, he would be able to jump at least four meters above. Not impossible.

  What this means, Jon himself knows very well.

  His height is about 1.5 meters, and the ceiling of the carriage is more than 3 meters and 20 centimeters, which means that the height of his feet from the ground was more than 1.7 meters.

  The world record for the standing high jump is only 1.83 meters!

  If there is no ceiling restriction, Jon is confident enough to more than double this height if he waits for his physical development and then strengthens his exercises.

   Jumping on the spot is more than three meters above the ground, which has far exceeded the physiological limit of human beings.

  And he can clearly feel that the benefits of the Levitation Curse must not only be reflected in the standing long jump. As long as he is more familiar with this feeling now, he will definitely run faster and react more quickly.

  In the magic world where most magic is directional skills, having such a dexterity far beyond ordinary people is similar to playing lol with a script - iron hang force.

  Jon, who was in an extremely happy mood, did not forget to answer Neville's question.

   "Like you just saw, say the spell, and jump."

  Of course he was joking, but the honest Neville obviously took it seriously. He raised his wand with an unbelievable expression on his face, and used the Levitation Charm in the same tone as Jon chanted the spell.

   As a result, the others did not change much, but the wrong spell set my vacation homework on fire.

After hastily extinguishing the fire, Neville still felt that it was the problem of using his wand. He put down the wand and said a spell again. Jon compared that clumsy movement as if he wanted to escape, but his limbs were uncoordinated. Silly hippopotamus jumping.

   "How the **** did you do it?"

  After two failures, Neville once again looked at Jon in disbelief.

  Jon didn't lie to him this time, but said seriously.

"I told you before that Professor Slughorn taught me some different things. These things have a high learning threshold. It's not that I don't want to tell you Neville, but that I promised the teacher that I can't teach this to you. Let's talk things out."

Neville could understand Jon's words. The Longbottom family is also an ancient wizarding family with a historical heritage. He knew that although the academic school has become the majority of the magic world, some magic is taught privately between master and student or between father and son. .

   At the same time, Jon didn't need to say more, he also took the initiative to say that he would keep this matter a secret and would not tell anyone.

  Jon certainly believed in Neville's character after getting along with him for half a school year.

   Besides, it doesn't matter if he tells it. Since he has learned this kind of magic, he will definitely use it in the future, so sooner or later others will know about it.

  The huge changes in his body did not make Jon forget about going on the scale. He measured his weight this time, and it was half lighter than normal, about 16 kilograms.

  He can't calculate the specific numerical measurement for the time being, but if he loses half his body weight and his body functions remain unchanged, even if his jumping ability and speed can be improved, such an exaggerated change is impossible.

  The high probability is that when he is jumping upwards, the floating spell itself also provides him with an upward force, allowing him to jump higher more easily.

But soon Jon also suppressed this excitement, resisting the urge to run to Slughorn's office to announce the good news to him, but continued to sit back at the desk and began to study the next spell combination.

  Neville was very puzzled by his actions.

   "Haven't you already tried it out? What else are you going to do?"

  Jon shook his head, and he said seriously.

"I can only say that this combination of syllables has shown the most significant effect so far. Before all the possibilities have been tried, it cannot be said that it must be the most suitable, and it's just that the degree has not reached my initial expectations. .”

   "What were your initial expectations?"

  Jon wrote the next pronunciation combination on the parchment with a quill pen, and said without raising his head.

   "What is the effect of the normal levitation spell, it is what I expected."

  Neville didn't react to his words at first, and after careful consideration, his eyes widened.

   "You still want to fly!"

   "The floating spell can't let me go into the sea and into the ground."

  Jon started the next spell attempt again as he spoke.

  Even after seeing Jon successfully apply the effect of the Levitating Charm on his own body once, Neville still finds it difficult to accept Jon's "whimsical".

   After all, this world is about magic, and what Jon did is the magic of magic.

  But he didn't say anything more, he had been slapped in the face once before, and Neville wouldn't be so stupid as to stick his face in there before looking for a second slap.

  Facing Jon, who can no longer be seen with conventional eyes, he chose to wait and see with reservations, in order to prevent one day when he returned to the dormitory and really saw Jon go to heaven.

   In the next three days, Jon never left the dormitory except for eating, and kept trying various combinations of the levitation spell pronunciation, but he didn't find a pronunciation combination that could surpass the one with the best effect so far.

   Just when he was about to stay home until the end of the Christmas holiday, Ron Justin and the others eagerly knocked on the door of Jon's bedroom.
