Spells like Impedimenta or Protego were nothing more than paper shells in front of Hagrid's hand-held ballista; the supersonic arrows offered absolutely no time to react.
The idea of using the Invisibility Cloak to cover the tent didn't seem feasible. Although the Invisibility Cloak was a cloak, it was sized for an adult. Even though the Omni-Tent was a compact single-person tent, it couldn't be completely covered.
Not trusting that the Omni-Tent's optical invisibility could fool magic, Lynn chose to give up on that idea.
Consequently, Lynn pulled out his 4D Pocket and stuffed the three of them inside.
This pocket wouldn't function at all in anyone else's hands, but it worked perfectly for Lynn. It was as if it had a unique user license bound to him, yet the item itself possessed no such binding function; if taken away, it could theoretically be used.
The interior of the somewhat dim 4D Pocket had no decorations; it looked pitch black. Being shut inside here was actually quite a scary experience.
"Wow! Lynn!"
After Lynn also climbed into the pocket, Harley ran up to him, shouting and making a fuss.
"You have so many items?!"
Her eyes were sparkling, full of curiosity.
"Is there anything we can use today?"
"I don't know, there should be... Come to think of it, I got some of these years ago. I don't know when they'll come in handy. Plus, a portion of them are broken—the kind that were broken the moment I got them and are completely unusable."
"Can't you repair them?"
"I tried the Mending Charm, but didn't see any effect. Maybe it's because my magical ability isn't up to par?"
His shortcomings in charms made Lynn unsure, but asking someone else to repair the items... he wasn't exactly comfortable with that either. Among those broken items, there were a few that were extremely "game-breaking." He couldn't rule out the possibility that if fixed, the person wouldn't plan on returning them.
"What is this? A toy gun or...?"
Harley pointed at an orange gadget that looked like a fusion of a hairdryer and a toy gun, asking Lynn.
"That... that thing is a bit formidable. You could even say it's very formidable."
If all the items here were usable, the most game-breaking one wouldn't be the Adaptation Light, but the hairdryer in Harley's hand.
[Evolution-Devolution Beam Gun]
"This item allows any organism hit by the beam to evolve or devolve. For example—a chicken's ancestor is a dinosaur. If you keep using this gun to devolve a chicken, it will revert to its ancestor, which is a dinosaur."
"And if you use the evolution function, even pigs, dogs, or cats can evolve into beings with intelligence and wisdom comparable to humans."
"This is a mysterious item that can adjust the hierarchy of life and break through the upper limits of biological levels. Unfortunately, it's broken and completely unusable."
Hearing Lynn's introduction, the trio stared dumbfounded at the hairdryer in Harley's hand, falling into a state of disbelief and shock for a moment.
"Then... then... what if you use it on a person?" Harley looked at Lynn with eager eyes; she really seemed to want to try out the effect of this thing.
"Then they turn into a superman. Superman! Flying through the sky and burrowing through the earth, invulnerable, shooting lasers from their eyes, freezing everything with their breath."
"Wow! I really want to try it!"
Harley excitedly hugged Lynn's arm, rubbing against it.
"No need to act like a bear rubbing against a tree. If you're going to act cute, at least offer me some benefits."
Lynn pulled his arm out with a look of slight distaste and pressed down on Harley's head.
"You fix it, and when I grow up, the first time I'll give you— mmph mmph mmph!"
Harley, who opened her mouth only to spew such scandalous words, was dragged away by Cho, who covered her mouth.
"What about this? What does this belt do?"
Neville was also curiously examining the items on the shelf. After Harley was dragged away, he asked Lynn.
[Ultimate Move Set]
"Put on this belt and shout: 'Equip!' You'll change into a tight bodysuit and gain the ability to use an ultimate move."
"As for the move... see that piece of paper inside the belt buckle? You can pull it out."
Neville did so, but couldn't understand the text on the paper at all.
"What's written on this?"
"The ultimate move, of course. As long as you write the move on it and say the name, you can use it. When I got this belt, there were no spare papers, only that single one stuffed inside."
"In other words... it can be used?"
Neville instantly got excited; he was itching to try it out.
"If you knew what was written on that paper, you might not think that way."
Lynn spread his hands and spoke somewhat helplessly: "The translation of the text is roughly: 'Darker than twilight, more crimson than blood, flowing in the stream of time, I hereby pledge myself to the great name—let all foolish things blocking our path be granted equal destruction by the power of thou and I! —Dragon Slave!!'"
"That's way too edgy. It's so embarrassing to read aloud—"
"So cool!"
Neville's eyes shone even brighter. After a moment of stunned silence... Lynn suddenly realized that Neville seemed to be exactly at that 'middle-school syndrome' age...
"If you like it, I'll lend it to you to play with. Although I haven't used it, it should be... probably pretty cool."
"Lynn!"
Looking tearful, Harley broke free from Cho's hand and threw herself into his arms, hanging onto him like a koala.
"I want it too I want to play too"
"Your washboard is digging into my face!"
Lynn, whose facial features were being distorted, pushed for a while but couldn't pull Harley off. Since when did she get so strong?
"So will you lend it to me or not?"
Harley grabbed Lynn's shoulders, her face leaning right in front of his.
"How about Neville plays with it, and then you play? I only have one belt."
"But you definitely have other good stuff!"
"Everything I have here is junk." Lynn helplessly peeled Harley off his body. "Take a look yourself. The usable ones are on the left shelf, the unusable ones are on the right."
"Is this bread an item too?"
Cho pointed to a stack of bread stuffed in a sealed bag and asked Lynn.
"Yes, that's Memory Bread. You can imprint content from paper onto it, and after eating it, you'll memorize it. But when I got it, it was probably already expired, right? It's a bit green on top, though I can't rule out that it's matcha flavored. Anyway, I have no use for it, so I just threw it there."
"Oh." Cho nodded; she wasn't very interested in the bread either.
"What about this? What about this?!"
Harley came bouncing back, holding a short tube about the thickness of a thumb.
[Air Pistol]
"Put it on your finger and say 'Bang'. It will fire like a pistol, but it shoots compressed air. The power isn't huge; at most it can knock someone over. A hit to the head might knock them out."
"I used to use this for self-defense and dealt with a few hooligans."
Before he fully mastered telekinesis, Lynn had encountered trouble a few times. Sometimes being handsome was a burden; if not for this Air Pistol, he would have suffered a bit.
"I'll give it to you for self-defense. You can't use magic during the holidays. If bad guys target you, use this. Aim for the liver area—it hurts enough to make them roll on the ground. One shot can take them down. If you miss, just follow up with a few dozen more. As long as you don't hit the eyeball, it's basically impossible to kill anyone with this thing."
"Bang~"
Harley put on the Air Pistol and tested it against the empty space nearby. Her finger vibrated slightly, and a mass of invisible shockwave flew out of the muzzle.
"Seems like it'll be fun!" Imitating a cowboy from the movies, Harley blew on the muzzle.
"What about Cho? Is there anything you want to try?"
Right now, the items Lynn had weren't particularly rare or powerful; he wouldn't feel bad giving most of them away.
"I'm a bit curious about what this rope does."
Cho pointed to a bundle of straw rope on the shelf.
"Don't underestimate it just because it looks plain. If I didn't have the Omni-Tent, this might be my favorite thing in here."
[Hot Spring Rope]
"Any area surrounded by this rope will turn into a hot spring. The water temperature is perfect, neither too hot nor too cold. It can be used anywhere, and it doesn't get dirty; the water quality remains clear."
"That's great!"
Before Cho could speak, Harley cheered happily again, "Let's go out and play together during the holidays, Cho, and soak in the hot spring together!"
"Sure."
Cho nodded with a smile. "My dad has a small holiday villa in the Hebrides. We can go play there for a few days during the break. The scenery is super beautiful."
"The Hebrides?" Neville seemed to be recalling something. "That's also called the Hebrides Islands, right? There's a reserve there, home to the Hebridean Black dragon. The biggest ones can grow up to thirty feet—nine meters—long."
"Isn't that even better!"
"You aren't allowed to just enter the reserve casually." Cho shook her head. "But I can ask my dad to get us two visitor passes. The wizard managing the place can take us inside for a tour."
"Cho, you're amazing~"
After rummaging through Lynn's 4D pocket for a while, the three of them crawled out in high spirits. The sky had already darkened slightly; it was about time for dinner.
"Let's go to the Great Hall, then check out the forest tonight."
"Mm! Here, this is for you, Lynn."
Harley stuffed the Invisibility Cloak into Lynn's hands. "Professor Dumbledore sent it to me for Christmas. He said it was something my dad left behind. It's really powerful."
"I guess he used this to sneak out for night wanderings when he was at school. But Lynn, you can't do that. You need to sleep early and wake up early, or you won't grow tall."
"You're talking about yourself, aren't you?"
Lynn rubbed Harley's little head. "I grew almost five inches taller this year. On the other hand, Harley, you don't seem to have changed much."
"I obviously grew taller too!"
Harley jumped up and down in place. "I'm going to have long legs any day now."
