Chapter 74: Killing Curse Trait Activated, Slaughter Intent Burns the Sky!
[Message]: You have completed the refinement task for Avada Kedavra!
[Message]: You have unlocked the new trait for Avada Kedavra - Slaughter Intent Burns the Sky!
"It really completed!"
A smile appeared on Dylan's face.
He hadn't expected to complete the refinement task for Avada Kedavra so simply. It seemed that this refinement task wasn't difficult at all!
Dylan checked the new trait ability of the Killing Curse.
——————
[Slaughter Intent Burns the Sky]: When you use the Killing Curse, you will be able to use this trait to autonomously expand or close a circular field of destruction with a radius of four meters and a duration of four seconds, centered on yourself.
Within this range, the energy of the Avada Kedavra curse will permeate, attacking all living creatures that enter. One second of sluggishness, two seconds of paralysis, three seconds to reap life.
[Note]: Want to block my Avada Kedavra with a mirror? Then try this! Avada Kedavra Embrace!

"A domain? Is it that exaggerated?"
Dylan looked at the newly developed trait and couldn't help but swallow.
It was one thing for him to learn max-level Avada Kedavra; even if he missed, it wouldn't necessarily kill someone.
But now...
Was this dog-thief system afraid he couldn't solve enemies with Avada Kedavra, so it directly gave him a layer of Avada Kedavra domain?
Whoever entered would die?
"However, a radius of four meters, this range isn't very large, nor is it very small, it's quite awkward."
Dylan clicked his tongue.
If the enemy happened to be within four meters, such as being in a small room together, this domain would be incredibly useful.
But if it was in an open territory, he would have to get close to the enemy, and the variables would undoubtedly increase a lot.
"Moreover, this domain can only last for four seconds. The life forms that enter it won't die instantly like being directly hit by Avada Kedavra. They have to stay in my domain for three seconds to be killed."
Dylan pursed his lips, then shook his head again.
"After all, it's just the energy domain that permeates after releasing Avada Kedavra. As long as the life form has no means of escape, even if they don't stay in my domain for a full three seconds, even if they stay for one or two seconds and run out, I can still chase after them."
At that time, couldn't he just cast another Killing Curse while the enemy was stiff or even paralyzed?
Overall, this trait was still quite useful.
It perfectly compensated for Dylan's attack methods and could only become a very important trump card for him.
"Hehe, who would have thought that a first-year little wizard would not only use Unforgivable Curses, but also have to withstand the aftershock damage of the Killing Curse just by getting close?"
This trait would be extremely outstanding for ambushing people.
Dylan was very satisfied, and it wasn't in vain that he had to wander around in the cold wind of the Forbidden Forest late at night.
Looking down at the corpse of the Acromantula,
Dylan thanked it.
This giant spider had not only offered him everything on its body but had also unlocked the trait of Avada Kedavra for him.
"I'll forgive your mistake of attacking me."
Dylan raised his wand, and a pink fluffy rabbit enveloped in Fiendfyre jumped out of thin air and landed on the giant spider.
The pink flames were beautiful to the extreme, gradually engulfing the Acromantula's body bit by bit.
In the end, not even a layer of ashes remained.
Dylan watched such a large giant spider turn to dust before his eyes, and a few more feelings arose in his heart.
His mood at this moment was a bit strange. A tingling sensation slowly spread from his heart until it swept through his entire body. It wasn't pleasure, but a bizarre feeling that made his scalp tingle, as if countless tiny electric currents were repeatedly colliding in his blood vessels and nerves.
"The Unforgivable Curses still live up to their name."
There were many ways to kill a person or a creature.
Such as turning to dust, Sectumsempra, Diffindo, Fiendfyre...
However, these spells all had ways to resist them.
But Avada Kedavra was unstoppable. As long as the curse hit, the target would be easily put to death.
Just a flash of pink light, and a life would perish.
You couldn't hear its wails, couldn't see its struggles. Death was so understated.
The demise of life was too easy, making it difficult for people to even perceive the preciousness of life.
"Fortunately, I can avoid the negative psychological effects brought by dark magic. I don't need to endure the negative emotional manipulation of the Unforgivable Curses. As long as I can maintain my original intention and realize that I am studying spells, and the Unforgivable Curses are just my tools that I can choose not to use but cannot lack, I won't become a killing maniac like Voldemort."
He studied magic just so that he wouldn't be treated as a pawn by anyone else, or die so easily like many people in the original story.
And to achieve this, he had to be strong enough, so strong that even Voldemort would have to address him respectfully in the future—
"Dylan is above!"
By the way, he would also study the relationship between immortality and magic, so that his cheap parents could live longer and Voldemort would kill fewer people.
"Maybe, by studying to the end of magic, I can even travel to other worlds."
After all, wasn't he a transmigrator himself?
This was also one of the reasons why Dylan was so enthusiastic about studying magic.
If he had the opportunity to appreciate the scenery of other worlds, it wouldn't be a waste of his diligent study of magic.
Looking at the time again, Dylan raised his head and looked into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.
But he didn't continue to go deeper, instead, he turned around and left.
The curfew hadn't ended yet. After Dylan returned to the dormitory, he cast a Scourgify on himself, hurriedly got into bed, and fell asleep hugging Coal Ball, who was waiting for him to return in the dormitory.
It wasn't until the morning that he was woken up by Harry.
"Unbelievable, Dylan, you actually slept in so late today? Were you very tired yesterday?" Ron stood next to Harry, looking surprised.
Dylan rubbed his eyes. "Yeah, a bit tired."
How could he not be tired? He had wandered around the Forbidden Forest for so long, also picking various herbs and dissecting materials.
Although he had only come back to sleep for more than two hours, he had a nightmare!
He dreamed that he was surrounded and chased by a bunch of Acromantulas, and then he used a hundred consecutive Avada Kedavras, almost turning into chain lightning, and solved all those giant spiders.
"What a terrible nightmare."
Dylan got out of bed and began to pack his things.
Harry and the others had already packed up, but before leaving, seeing that Dylan hadn't woken up yet, they came to call him.
"Stay here obediently, I'll be back tonight," Dylan patted Coal Ball's little head.
Its pointed, lynx-like ears twitched, and it rubbed Dylan's palm with its furry cheek.
"Moo!"
Dylan smiled and cast a Tire-Banishing Charm on himself, feeling much more awake.
Then, with his small schoolbag on his back, he turned and followed Harry and the others to the dining hall for breakfast.
