However, using Arithmos Revelio would be efficient in that if the object is indeed cursed, it would tell you what curse is on it."
"So when you discover that an object or person is indeed cursed, by casting Arithmos Revelio, a string of numbers will materialize in the air. The more complicated the spell, however, would mean the less likely you will be able to decipher the spell." She paused, writing four words on the board;
Basis: what the spell affects
Kernel/Core: what the spell does
Range: how the spell is activated
Cline/Type: what kind of spell it is
"So we know that this piece of jewelry has been giving me red irritating marks when worn. Almost like its burning my flesh. Having said that, what numbers do you think might indicate such a spell? And what spell do you think it is?" Nerida nodded so the professor wanted them to guess what numbers it might be? Okay...She leafed through her book skimming the numbers...She raised her hand and said
"Maybe the numbers zero for change or decay, five for physical touch since it has to touch you and maybe seven for magic..." Now the curse...She thought for a second making sure she had the right fire spell in mind,
"I believe the curse would be the Flagrante curse."
