Chapter 129 The Invincible Ancient Greek Wizard Andros

Chapter 129 Ancient Greek Wizard—The Invincible Andros

Hogwarts.

For a whole afternoon, Flitwick spent the entire afternoon in the restricted section of the library, looking up information on the Patronus Charm.

The Hogwarts library has the most comprehensive collection of books in the entire wizarding world.

Since the school was founded for thousands of years, Hogwarts has been collecting books from all aspects. Not only that, when the Big Four established Hogwarts, they left behind a large number of precious books.

Many ancient magic books even require proficiency in ancient magic scripts to understand.

In the office, Flitwick sat on a chair, holding a magic book in his hand and flipping through it carefully.

There is also a pile of thick books stacked on the desk, which is about seventy centimeters high.

These were all ancient magic books left behind by the Big Four. Flitwick spent a whole afternoon searching in the restricted book area and moved all the magic books involving the Patronus Charm to the office.

As the Charms professor at Hogwarts, Flitwick is extremely obsessed with magic. Although Andy's point of view is just a hypothesis, Flitwick believes that Andy's point of view is correct.

Even if there is only a glimmer of possibility, it is enough for Flitwick to study it sleeplessly.

Boom, boom, boom!

The glass was knocked.

Flitwick snapped his fingers and the window opened automatically.

An owl flew in, circled around the office, and landed on Flitwick's desk.

Flitwick took down the letter and took out some food to send the owl away.

Letter signed: Andy Collins.

Flitwick put down the book in his hand, opened the envelope and read it.

"hiss--"

Flitwick gasped.

The content of the letter becomes more and more shocking the more I read it.

Let magic return to its unstable state?

"How did he do it?"

The patron saint has become spiritual and seems to be coming to life?

"Is this really possible? Collins' research has been successful?"

Unstable magic can merge with a wizard's emotions?

"This, this, this..."

Andy also gave the example of a magic wand in his letter.

The wand chooses the wizard, so the properties of the wand and the properties of the magic need to match.

The reason why the magic power of different wizards has different specificities is because when the magic power is in an unstable state, it has already 'memorized' the wizard's emotions and personality.

Emotions can affect magic, which has been confirmed in many magics.

Flitwick read the contents of the letter twice.

I have to say that Andy's point of view is quite reasonable.

If unstable magic can 'remember' the wizard's emotions, then the principle of the formation of the Obscurus can be explained.

A fusion of magic and emotion!

What about the Patronus Charm...?

Flitwick couldn't sit still at all. He picked up Andy's letter and hurried to Dumbledore's office.

"Good evening, Filius."

Dumbledore said with a smile: "It seems that you have gained something. Please sit down!"

Flitwick sat opposite Dumbledore and raised his chair with a wave of his wand, "I'm sorry to disturb you so late."

"Being alone is quite boring, isn't it?" Dumbledore said slightly naughtily.

"What would you like to drink?" Dumbledore asked.

"Thanks!"

Flitwick didn't say what to drink, but handed Andy's letter to Dumbledore, "Albus, look at this letter."

Dumbledore hesitated slightly.

"It doesn't matter, this isn't a private letter," Flitwick explained.

"Oh well!"

Dumbledore took the letter and read it carefully, "It seems that Mr. Collins has brought us another surprise."

"So what do you think...?" Flitwick asked tentatively.

Dumbledore crossed his hands on his desk and said slowly: "In fact, emotions and magic can indeed affect each other to some extent. Especially... dark magic!"

Flitwick also reacted after hearing this.

In-depth study of black magic, or frequent use of black magic, can affect the mind of wizards.

Then conversely, it may not be impossible for emotions to affect magic power.

only…

As if he had thought of something, Flitwick suddenly looked like Dumbledore.

"Yes, black magic is indeed unique in this aspect." Dumbledore said with emotion.

The Obscurus is the force of dark magic.

Whether emotions affect magic or magic affects emotions, black magic is far superior to white magic in this regard.

Because happiness is always short-lived, but a lot of hatred can affect a person's life.

“What about Collins’ research?”

Flitwick asked curiously: "If it is true as he said, his magic has returned to an unstable state...then can the Patronus Charm be as powerful as the Obscurus?"

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, "That's just a curse, Filius. The Patronus Curse and the Obscurus are different after all."

Dumbledore finished speaking and glanced at Andy's letter again.

Is the patron saint already spiritual?

"Filius, do you know Andros?" Dumbledore suddenly asked.

"Andros the Invincible?"

Of course Flitwick had heard of it, "That was the great wizard from the ancient Greek era. It is said that his patron saint was as big as a giant."

Ancient Greek civilization spanned a long time, starting from the Cretan and Mycenaean civilizations, passing through the Homeric and Archaic times, and reaching its heyday.

The earliest Cretan civilization in the ancient Greek era was approximately between 2850 BC and 1450 BC.

The time when ancient Greek civilization died was 146 BC.

This shows how ancient the Patronus Charm is.

"yes!"

Dumbledore said with emotion: "There was no wand in that era, and Andros used wandless magic to cast a giant-sized Patronus. In order to praise his magical abilities, the world called him the Invincible Andros."

Hearing this, Flitwick sighed with regret.

Many records of that era have been lost in the dust of history.

Andros' deeds were only discovered a few years ago. It was not until 1990 that it was published on a Chocolate Frog card and became known to the public.

"His patronus...?"

Flitwick asked: "Is Andros's strength related to his patron saint?"

"I'm not omnipotent, Filius."

Dumbledore chuckled, and as he spoke, he took out his wand and waved it in the air.

A faint blue phoenix flew out from the tip of the staff, circled around the office, and then slowly dissipated in the air.

It wasn't until the phoenix dissipated that Flitwick withdrew his gaze.

"It's so beautiful, Phoenix Patronus... I can't help but be amazed every time I see it." Flitwick praised.

Dumbledore smiled and said: "If it can hear your compliments, it will definitely be very happy."

"I'm looking forward to that day."

Flitwick stood up and said: "It's too late today, so I won't disturb your rest."

"I'm glad I have someone to talk to." Dumbledore smiled.
