Reborn In A Harry Potter Universe - 26 Mind

“Has your mind returned back to its faculties” Marimo asks Dudley who has been back for almost a week now.

“Yes” Dudley says. Scowling as he remembers what Marimo told him before he left for his trip.

“Have you learned the importance of protecting your mind from any outside influences?” Marimo says unaffected

“Yes” Dudley tries to growl but it comes out as an awkward squeak instead. He blushes and looks away. Marimo smirks when Dudley turned his face away.

Turns out, this place had a mild mind regressing ward that grows stronger overtime embedded in the fabric of the barrier. If you were not informed of this or do not have proper mind protecting techniques, you would be acting more like a child the more time spent in the barrier.

“Telling you about it is a rite of passage that has been around since the founding of this place. It also means you are ready to learn the next level of techniques that is taught here. We also cannot have someone with such weak mind barrier as our student. Secrets must be kept after all.” Marimo explains and Dudley nods. Not at all satisfied that his mind had been messed with. Even if it was for the sake of something.

He had gained a new kind of fear for the universe he was in. Though he had seen how dangerous the world is through the books and movies, it never hit as hard as when it had happened to him. The world was large. He had barely seen the wonder and horrors of it through the eyes of his cousin.

Who knows what would have happened if his teacher had not hammered this lesson in his head. He would have gone about thinking he knew everything since he read the books and watched the movies. He made a new promise to himself to learn everything he was about to learn with zeal. He was even about to…

“Oh and I forgot to tell you, you learn faster here too. The reason why is neuroplasticity. It’s basically your brain’s way of forming new connections as it relates to learning. If you want to know more of what that is, ask Wyllt. He knows more about it than me” Marimo explains shocking Dudley out of his Mind.

“The reason you didn’t notice is the same reason why you weren’t told about the memory charm on this place. Now that I’ve told you this, you are on a timer now. If you don’t have enough protection you will start learning faster and faster until eventually, you brain speed starts affecting your perception. Then everything starts becoming slower and slower up till you enter flash time where time looks like it froze but it’s just you stuck in between seconds as your body fails to answer your mind because it can’t reach such speeds yet.” Marimo ends in an ominous tone.

Dudley shivers and quickly focuses on reinforcing his Mind.

“Enough laying down. Get ready for the next round” Marimo breaks Dudley out of the fugue he’s in.

Dudley continues training while Marimo watches. Marimo smacks Dudley around when he makes a mistake or gets arrogant as well as teaches him the correct form and praises him when he does right. Marimo had noticed the intensity Dudley put into training had changed but he did not comment on it.

By the time they’re done, Dudley looks ready to pass out. Seeing the state he’s in, Marimo finally relents to let him go and ends the day’s training.

Dudley tiredly crawls to his room. He lets out a tired cry of joy as he climbs unto his bed. Before he passes out, he hears someone saying “we’re here for you, son.” Naturally, he ignores that think his mind is playing tricks on him. His world fades to black before he realizes it.

Meanwhile, a few more holes appear.
