Chapter 102: Passionate Researcher
Thanks to the presence of the little ones, Sebastian had a particularly lively Christmas.
Seeing Fred and George staying in the alchemy laboratory and not coming out, as if they had forgotten to eat and sleep, Sebastian, in addition to guiding them, also examined their progress in learning alchemy.
He was surprised to find that the twins had a solid foundation in alchemical theory, and their practical skills were in no way inferior to Swann's alchemical interns.
You know, these two little guys are only in the third grade. In addition to their talents, their ability to achieve this is inseparable from their hard work.
Therefore, Sebastian assigned the twins a new research topic, which was how to use the protective school badge to help students improve their efficiency in learning the Iron Armor Spell.
In order to see what creative ideas these two little guys would come up with, after providing the twins with sufficient financial support, Sebastian never gave them any more hints.
In addition to chatting, Sebastian's favorite thing is to teach the little ones how to duel.
Seeing them cheering for successfully casting a spell, Sebastian was filled with a sense of accomplishment and joy.
Happy times are always short. The Christmas holiday passed by quickly amid laughter and joy, as if it was just a blink of an eye.
As students returned to school one after another, Hogwarts returned to its former hustle and bustle and vitality.
The corridors, paths, and auditoriums were filled with the laughter of the little wizards, and the campus was once again full of vitality and enthusiasm.
The little wizards chattered and shared what they had seen and heard during the holidays. After a holiday of separation, they had endless things to say when they saw their friends again.
Hermione kept asking Ron and Harry about various details about their stay at Swann Manor, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and envy.
When she heard that Harry and his friends could receive personal instruction from the professor every day, her jealousy was almost beyond words.
"I regret it so much. I should have signed the list of people who would stay in school. Then, I could go to the professor's house to celebrate the holiday as Harry's good friend and study with him."
"My dueling skills are not as good as Harry's to begin with, and now I'm probably no match for Ron."
"Let's go to the Duel Hall now. You have to teach me well..."
After saying that, Hermione dragged Harry and Ron towards the dueling hall.
Ron's face was full of pain. He wanted to take advantage of the last moments of the holiday to play a few games of wizard chess happily.
Sebastian sat in the office with a strange look on his face. Since returning to Hogwarts Castle, some strange phenomena began to appear in his magical perception.
In other words, ever since he comprehended the magic of love and learned Grindelwald's fire shield before the holiday began.
He vaguely sensed something special.
Sebastian closed his eyes, concentrated all his attention, and tried his best to perceive everything in the castle.
He discovered that there was something indescribable emanating from the little wizards.
These mysterious substances are like tiny spots of light, changing with the little wizards' emotional fluctuations.
The more excited and delighted the little wizards became, the more of this strange substance appeared, as if responding to their emotions.
Sebastian observed carefully and found that these strange spots of light did not disappear for no reason, but floated in the air and slowly penetrated into the walls of the castle.
They seemed to be attracted by some force and were eventually absorbed by the castle itself.
What exactly are these colorful substances?
Why didn’t I sense it before?
Sebastian couldn't figure it out for a moment.
However, he was sure that the castle absorbed these substances without causing any harm to the little guys.
interesting!
Sebastian was completely interested and wanted to figure out what these tiny spots of light were.
He once again transformed himself into a passionate researcher, thinking about all the relevant details in his mind.
Suddenly, his eyes moved and he thought of a phenomenon he had just discovered.
The more excited the little wizards became, the more points of light emanated from them.
The happy little guys emit yellow light.
The little ones who were in a hurry to catch up on their homework emitted red and a little bit of black light.
The little ones who miss home as soon as they arrive emit a variety of light spots of all colors.
Moreover, the more excited their expressions are, the darker the color of the light spots becomes.
so......
Are these colorful substances the little ones' emotions and feelings?
Sebastian slapped his forehead and suddenly felt that he was really confused by the situation.
If you want to know whether these colorful substances are related to emotions, you just need to experiment for yourself.
After all, a great man once said that practice is the only criterion for testing truth.
So he decided to verify this hypothesis immediately.
Sebastian concentrated his mind and focused all his magical perception on his surroundings, while constantly pondering the reason for the existence of this mysterious substance in his mind.
He was trying to do two things at once: focusing on his perception of his surroundings while thinking deeply, trying to find the answer.
Sure enough, as he was thinking, he noticed that some blue substance began to emanate from his body.
As his inner struggle and confusion deepened, the blue became more intense, almost as if responding to his inner emotional fluctuations.
Case solved!
It is indeed related to emotions and feelings.
This brings up another problem.
Sebastian frowned, a hint of doubt rising in his heart.
Why didn't I sense anything when I was at Swann Manor?
You know, this holiday was very lively because of the little ones, but at Swan Manor, I didn't feel anything.
Why do these colorful substances only appear in my magical perception when I am within the confines of Hogwarts Castle?
Could it be that there is some unknown magic in Hogwarts Castle, under the influence of which people's emotions and feelings are materialized?
Sebastian touched his chin and felt that his guess was very close to the truth.
However, why have I never heard of any magic related to emotions and feelings except the magic of love?
wrong!
As soon as this doubt arose, it was overturned by Sebastian himself.
There are many similar magics in the magical world.
Among them, the most famous is the Patronus Charm, a spell that is very difficult to learn.
In order to successfully cast the Patronus Charm, the caster needs to use the happiest mood and the most positive emotions to succeed.
If it is said that the Patronus Charm is too difficult to learn, then few people can do it.
Well, there is a class of spells that also use emotions as a driving force, and almost everyone has one or two of them.
dark magic!
In order to verify the accuracy of one's own guesses, the use of black magic is completely inseparable from the invocation of emotions.
Sebastian stretched out his wand, pointed it at the spider in the corner, and performed a notorious black magic.
"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"
