Chapter 3 Development and Research of Ancient Witchcraft

"Research on the Development of Ancient Witchcraft"

Andy took out the book from the bookshelf, turned to the part he saw last night, and continued reading. new

The Collins family is not an ancient family of magicians. According to genealogy records, the earliest magician in the family appeared two centuries ago.

According to current parlance, the Collins family can be regarded as a mixed-blood wizard family.

Therefore, there are not many magic books at home, and most of them are popular goods that can be bought in bookstores. A small number of unique copies were obtained by our ancestors from their friends.

Since the little wizard's magic power is not stable, Andy is strictly prohibited from reading books related to spell casting in order to prevent Andy from accidentally casting spells, being unable to control them, or causing harm to himself.

Those magic books are enchanted, and as long as Andy touches them, an alarm will sound in the house.

"It's really like guarding against thieves." Andy complained habitually, but his mind was completely immersed in the content described in the magic book.

The first human wizards did not have wands, so it was difficult for wizards of that era to cast spells. Many wizards only knew one or two magic spells. If you are not skilled in casting spells, or if you lose control of your emotions, you may even go berserk with magic.

"So...emotional control is important for spellcasting?"

"Or...the mind and the will?"

Andy turned his eyes to the side, and under the interference of strong will, the quill on the desk slowly flew up.

Andy had been able to do this skillfully a few years ago.

At first, Andy thought he was one of a kind magic genius. As long as he learned how to cast spells, he could step on Voldemort and punch Dumbledore.

But this idea was eventually scoffed at by my mother, Helen.

The most critical reason why Andy can cast a simple spell is that the little wizard's magic power is not stable enough.

As he grew older, Andy also found that it became more and more difficult for him to cast spells without a wand. Every time I concentrate on casting a spell, I feel a strong sense of stagnation.

However, Andy has been consciously practicing his 'wandless spellcasting' skills, even though it has become increasingly difficult.

According to Helen's explanation, this stagnation occurred mainly because Andy's magic power had gradually stabilized and his emotions when casting the spell were not strong enough.

When Andy gets a wand in the future, it will become much easier for Andy to cast spells.

And Andy also found the same answer in the book.

"So this is how Obscurus was born?"

In the book "Research on the Development of Ancient Witchcraft", there is a full chapter about Obscurus.

According to the book: When a wizard child is forced to suppress their magic due to physical or psychological abuse, they experience extreme emotional pain, creating a state of mind known as the 'Oscurus'. 'The power of dark, parasitic magic. new

When the Obscurus reaches an emotional and mental breaking point, they lose control of their body and unleash their 'Osculus'.

The book says that the power of Obscurus is extremely powerful and uncontrollable.

"So, emotions - or spiritual power, can be integrated with magic power to make magic power stronger?"

However, according to the book "Research and Development of Ancient Witchcraft", Obscurus will only be born in the bodies of little wizards under the age of ten, and they will not live past the age of ten.

And when the little wizard is over ten years old and the magic power in his body becomes relatively stable, no matter how strong the emotion is, Obscurus will not be born.

"The fusion of psychic power and magic power can be used as a research topic in the future."

The current system seems to be of no help to Andy, but the above data can give Andy a better understanding of his abilities.

On the data on the right side of the system, there are five attributes: magic, soul, heart, thinking, and will.

Let’s not mention magic power and soul for now. According to the system’s classification, mind, thinking, and will are obviously three different powers.

"Forget about the mind, the will - does it mean defense against some magic? For example, the Cruciatus Curse and the Imperius Curse?"

Andy continued to flip through the book.

Andy has read the chapter about Obscurus several times in a row. After confirming that there was no missing information, Andy continued to read the rest of the content.

After half an hour, Andy closed the book.

"Junk book!"

Ancient magic and modern magic are completely different things, and the explanation of ancient magic in this book is completely an introduction to the "history of development" without any substantive content.

Um! This is actually a history book and has nothing to do with magic.

"somebody is coming?"

Andy looked out the window to relax his eyes, but saw a small black dot appearing on the mountain in the distance. The small black dot quickly approached towards his home and gradually became clearer.

"Oh my god, it's him again!" Andy looked worried.

Meeting Ron Weasley was definitely a major mistake Andy made in his future planning.

The Weasley family and the Collins family are separated by four mountains. Andy once rode a children's version of a broomstick to visit his neighbors, and the Weasley family was no exception.

What Andy didn't expect was that there was a kid of the same age as himself in the Weasley family.

Well, Andy was actually a little surprised at first. After all, Ron is a character in the original "Harry Potter" and one of the three protagonists.

Ron in the first movie is still very likable, especially his self-sacrifice in the chess game.

However, after Andy and Ron became familiar with each other - that is to say, after a few words, Andy would rather he had never met this person.

Because the two sides have no common language at all!

Andy wants to talk about magic with Ron. After all, Weasley is a famous magician with a long tradition in the magic world. Although he is now in decline, the magic books collected at home will never be sold for money.

But Ron always wanted to talk to Andy about Quidditch, or some wild bragging.

If he was really eleven years old, Andy wouldn't mind becoming friends with Ron, but Andy was not really eleven years old after all.

In just a moment of recall, Ron had already landed in front of Collins' house on a child's broomstick.

"Andy!" Ron raised his head and waved to Andy who was standing in front of the window.

"Wait a minute, I'll go downstairs and open the door for you."

Putting the book back on the bookshelf, Andy sighed and ran all the way downstairs.

Andy was a Muggle in his previous life, so Andy had an almost fanatical enthusiasm for magic.

But that's obviously not the case with Ron.

He is just an ordinary magical kid.

Just like Andy's previous life, everyone knew that technology was amazing, but learning mathematics, physics and chemistry was also a huge torture.

However, perhaps it is precisely because Ron was born in the wizarding world that he only has Andy, a young wizard friend of the same age.
