The **Magic School 5th floor** introduces you to the Hookshot tool as new mechanic to overcome gaps. You will find it in a huge treasure chest surrounded by a lot of possibilities to practice with your new hook. After you solved your first little hook puzzle, you could move north and will spot the little princess sitting around. Pick her up and hold her for a while to get a star piece.

Moving east from where you spotted the princess will only be of interest if you are already working on the quest Occult Girl and the Secret Chamber 3. After you have defeated the enemies in that room you could break through a book shelf in the top right of the room, but it will be blocked by Laura-Ghosts if you do not have the quest yet. Still some purple coins need to be collected.

### Ghost Puzzle Room

Moving west of the princess you get to a room with a lot of little white scary ghosts in it. In its bottom right corner is a chamber with some purple coins and the statue to bring your mysterious pieces once you have found them. The chamber at top right holds a fire pit which you need at the other end of the room and a reset button shall you need to reset the room to its original state.

Grab the fire pit and move to the left side of the room. This will happen nearly automatically as the ghosts scare you this way anyhow. Use the fire pit for the two braziers to get access to a small chamber with a switch. It will open the exit to this area.

Do not go to the exit yet, but move back to the the way the ghosts scared you along. As long as you do not touch the carpet the ghosts looking at you shall be far enough away. Now turn right and you shall have one ghost facing you. Throw the fire pit directly in front of it to block its sight. Now you could move in its direction and pass it to get access to the fenced area. Talk to the mirror to get aware of the secret level The World in the Mirror. Now you could go to the exit of this area, just take care you do not get scared by the ghosts on top to be able to go left and collect the star piece. Afterwards you purposely have to get scared by those ghosts to run past the ones blocking the exit. The purple coins could be easily collected when entering the area back again from the exit. The ghosts there will automatically scare you that way.

### Hook Puzzle Area

Next you reach an area with lots of platforms which you could only reach by using your hook. Again the fire pit is your best friend, so get back to get it from the last room in case you want to find all secrets of this stage. Go to the first platform and throw the fire pit to the one at your left. Follow it by using your hook and carry the fire pit further left. You will reach a room with a shimmering ghost painting (Is it you, Kirby?). After you set it on fire a secret passage is opened. You could find a video tape and a treasure chest with random weapons.

Back in the hook area, do not use the speed arrow, but your hook to get to a platform to your right. By using the jumping pad on the following platform you receive a mysterious piece. Next reach a platform with a switch which lowers a book shelf. Move on via the jumping pad and now you could move south over the lowered shelf. Do not use the speed arrows for now, but go onto the next platform. It seems there is nothing, but you could use your hook to get further downwards onto a little platform with a star piece.

Jump down the platform and destroy the small stones with a mysterious piece behind them. You could now use the bomb to destroy the massive block which blocks the stairs to the final jump pad. Before you take the pad, make sure you have searched the area between the platforms for all purple coins. Additionally you meet two pupil in the lower right corner which will reveal the secret level of The Extremist Wizards.

### Boss Fight

You could not miss the last star piece down the hallway and a health fountain is awaiting you, before you enter the boss room. At first Professor Flamel will turn on you and try to defeat you, but you quickly fight her down. Afterwards you follow a story line which brings you back to the first and second floor again before the true origin of all evil is uncloaked - all along it was Elphana!

The fight against here is not too complicated. She has barely any chance to attack you on short range, so it is safe to attack her directly with full force. From time to time she is switching location to another picture, though, so make sure you do not hit an empty frame. Unfortunately great battles come not without sacrifice - Lavi and Favi get turned into stone. You could meet their statues from now on in Magic School Founder's Room and maybe much later in the game you may even be able to rescue them.
