116 Chapter 116 : Infirmary

"RASENGANNNNNN" Orion suddenly shouted and his eyes opened.

Orion awoke in the dimly lit Hogwarts infirmary, his surroundings unfamiliar. Pain pulsed through every fibre of his being, and a tight bandage encased his throbbing head. Disoriented, he struggled to piece together how he had ended up in this sterile sanctuary.

The events leading to his hospitalization eluded his memory, leaving a disconcerting void. He gingerly touched the bandage, his fingertips encountering the telltale tenderness. An air of mystery clung to the room, and the subdued whispers of magical healing spells echoed in the stillness.

Orion's gaze flickered across the room, seeking answers that remained elusive. The infirmary offered no clues, and a sense of unease settled within him. As consciousness fully reclaimed him, the questions lingered, and Orion grappled with the elusive fragments of a forgotten journey that had brought him to this enigmatic moment of awakening.

[Oh you are finally up ?] Suddenly the chibi Merlin appeared out of nowhere and asked.

"What happened? how come I'm here," Orion asked in confusion after seeing someone who could answer his questions.

[Oh you don't remember, you got knocked out by Nick Iron and was transported later on] Merlin said with a nonchalant attitude. But Orion on the other hand just blinks in confusion. 

"What do you mean knock out, I gut that bastard with Rasengan later," Orion asked with a ridiculous expression on his face.

[Huh? What are you talking about? You got knocked down, dont you remember? Are you dreaming or something] Merlin replied with an amused look on his face.

Seeing this look, Orion blinked and started to doubt his own claim, thinking about it he closed his eyes and started to trace his memories in the mental palace.

After just a little bit he saw what really happened, he was really knocked out by Nick and then teleported here.

'So that Rasengan? Was all of that a dream ?' Orion muttered to himself and sighed. 

'Man, I really want to use Rasengan. But that damn technique is not working, I need much better raw magic control or I have to learn the Law of Space.' Orion muttered to himself with annoyance.

"So how long I have been here ?" Orion asked.

[Just 7 hours, nothing to worry] Merlin said.

Orion after hearing this just nodded with a sigh. 

"Well, I was about to give up anyways but damn, that was no way to lose. I didn't even give the bastard any damage," Orion complained and then again plummed back to the bed.

He honestly had no energy or will to go back to his dorm at this point, in fact, he just wanted to rest now. He was tired after all that running around, training and more.

[You should rest, you are working nonstop to master the space Law and even the vacation was quite stressful for you. Young minds need their rest.] Merlin said but his normal nonchalant attitude was gone.

"Man, I just find myself out of time and stress no matter what, even magic can't change that, but maybe you are right, I rather stay here for another week and rest. Maybe that what is I am lacking right now." Orion nodded.

[Good, then I advise that you should start writing your next book already, we are much behind the schedule. And while you are doing this then also make sure that you are researching] Merlin's advice. 

"Hmm, well let's start with the potion, I already had a general layout of the book so that's not gonna be a problem even if I can't complete it by the end of the year," Orion replied and looked at his pendant.

Determined to create a Squib Potion, finally found a quiet moment in the infirmary. Armed with magical ingredients, he set up a makeshift potion-making station. The air buzzed with anticipation as he prepared for his first attempt.

Merlin appeared by his side, ready to lend a guiding hand. [Now focus on the task at hand. The Squib Potion requires precision and care, this is no normal potion as you already know.]

Merlin said and even Orion knew what he was trying to say, this particular potion is not possible to create without him, as this potion needs a focus, this focus of magic will be Orion himself, this is not just about the ingredients but also the person who is making it.

Orion nodded, his brow furrowed in concentration. He began mixing the magical ingredients, following Merlin's instructions step by step. Bubbling the cauldron in front of him, he carefully added drops of essence, creating a potion designed to unlock hidden magical potential.

As the potion simmered, Orion watched with bated breath. Merlin offered encouraging words, guiding him through the delicate process. The room filled with the enchanting aroma of the brewing Squib Potion.

With a sense of accomplishment, Orion carefully bottled the potion, although this was just a testing potion which is incomplete still this helped him figure out how to make the real potion. He eyed it with a mix of excitement and nervousness, wondering about its magical efficacy.

Merlin, ever supportive, smiled. [Good now insert your essence here and then wait, if things go well then we can get a tone-down version of a squib potion.] 

Orion nodded, this was nowhere near a complete potion, the reason being he can't make the complete potion right now is because he need to figure out what formulae will actually hold his own core essence for a long time. 

If the potion can't hold the essence then it's pointless. And Orion knew that he will need many tries to fix the formulae.

Yup that was a dream if you are wondering. Only the Rasengan part. Orion was knock out by Nick on the first try.
