Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

Sunday, 14 November.

Today is a special day, one Andy has been waiting for since completing the seven dark magic transfiguration rituals.

It is the first day of the tenth lunar month, the new moon!

This is the day to prepare the dark magic transfiguration potion.

Preparation time: one month.

After one month, Andy will be able to test the effect of the dark magic transfiguration on Reed.

Success would mean that Andy had pushed open the door to magic transfiguration, and his own magical abilities would improve greatly. Failure would mean starting all over again.

True, Andy is still young, and he will have plenty of time to study magic transfiguration in the future.

But Voldemort is about to rise again, and time is not on his side.

As the old saying goes, if you wear a mask for too long, you may never be able to take it off again.

On second thought, there is some truth in that.

From the first day at Hogwarts, Andy has been avoiding a direct confrontation with Voldemort.

On the one hand, it is because he is worried about the safety of his family, and on the other hand, it is because his own strength is too weak.

But as his strength improves step by step, Andy's self-confidence has also been further enhanced.

When you are strong, you will inevitably want to act cool and powerful—if you don't, what's the difference between you and a salted fish?

But the human heart is so strange.

After pretending for so long, Andy finds that he has become accustomed to his current situation.

So sometimes Andy wonders what he would do if one day his true self were revealed.

But no matter what the future holds, for now, Andy wants to keep things as they are.

Run away?

That would be too disgraceful!

Even though Andy deeply resists facing Voldemort head-on, he cannot easily retreat when it comes to maintaining his reputation and everything he has now.

As the saying goes, sometimes people are pushed forward by others.

Because any contact with others will leave a mark on the heart.

However, in Andy's opinion, it is not so much that others push him forward, but rather the reluctance in his heart that makes him not want to give up everything he has now.

After all, people are social animals!

Therefore, the outcome of this experiment is very important to Andy.

If he fails, he will have to run, even if he doesn't want to!

After the Quidditch match, Hogwarts returned to normal. Andy took the opportunity to do some extensive study in the Restricted Books section, and the results were very fruitful.

In addition to information on magic transfiguration, Andy also looked up a lot of information on the soul and the Obscurus.

There is a saying that the simplest things are the most profound.

Andy felt that this was quite true.

When he first started learning magic, Andy found it very complicated. Even for the simplest spell, he has to learn a lot of magic theory.

But as Andy's magical abilities continued to improve, he suddenly realised that magic is actually just that.

It's just a few different types of characteristics that are entangled with each other.

Once you understand the relationship, it's simple.

The mind is the link between the body and the soul.

Magic comes from life, and life is the sum of the body and the soul, everything we are.

That's why the mind can control magic and thus form magic.

When the mind and magic merge, they become independent of the body and soul and form a magical life separate from life itself—that is, the Obscurus and the Fat Cat Patronus.

But in essence, neither the Obscurus nor the Fat Cat Patronus can survive independently of their hosts.

The Fat Cat Patronus is special because it is a spell, and it is bound to the Patronus Charm.

But the Obscurus is different; it is a qualitative change in magic.

Andy called this theory the unity of spirit (mind), essence (body), and soul! In fact, from any perspective, the spirit is 'unwilling' to leave its host, because to do so would mean death.

And when the spirit is inside us, we can use our willpower to control it and suppress it.

So the question now is... how do we create a living environment that the spirit finds 'comfortable'?

The answer is also very simple—magic transfiguration!

Magic transfiguration is body modification!

After magic transfiguration, our bodies will evolve into magical beings; not only will our magical power be greatly enhanced, but our bodies' adaptability to magic will also be enhanced.

Not only that!

Since the mind is related to the body, when the body is magically transformed, the increase in magical power of the same mental power will also be enhanced to a certain extent.

In other words, it is an increase in magical attack power.

This is not only a substantial increase in personal strength, but after all this time of sleepless research, Andy discovered that the body after magic transformation may be able to accommodate the power of the Obscurus!

Although this is currently only a theory, Andy already knows who to ask.

Gellert Grindelwald!

Andy is going to find an opportunity to visit Sirius in Grimmauld Place after the Christmas holiday and then take the opportunity to control Kreacher to ask it to deliver a Two-way mirror to Grindelwald.

As for what happens after that...

As long as you're shameless, you can always get some answers!

After all... Andy was Dumbledore's favourite student (...).

This period of time has been very fruitful.

And tonight, it's the beginning of the test of everything.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Andy used the Time Turner to turn back time three hours.

November 14th, 7 pm.

Andy uses the Apparition spell to leave the castle and Apparate to the cemetery in Godric's Hollow.

With a light pop, Andy appears out of thin air.

He looks up at the sky.

A crescent moon hangs in the night sky... Perhaps it's an illusion, but Andy feels that the moon tonight is faintly red.

Summoning his fat cat Patronus to keep watch nearby, Andy went to the middle of the cemetery and dug up the crystal phial that had been buried for about two months.

Since the prohibition against dark magic transfiguration did not include the point 'no contact with outsiders', Andy simply took out the crystal phial with a pair of dragon skin gloves.

In the moonlight, the liquid in the crystal phial shimmered with a scarlet magical fluorescence.

The colour was perfect!

'It worked!' Andy was overjoyed.

He put the crystal phial in his pocket, looked around a few times, then withdrew his fat cat Patronus, which disappeared with a 'pop'.

The laboratory near Hogsmeade village.

Andy had been coming here almost every other day for a while. To prevent Reed from getting out of control, Andy had to use the Imperius Curse to control him frequently.

Thanks to Andy's caution, there had been no accidents in the experiments with dark magic transfiguration.

Tonight was no different.

Andy went down to the basement and saw that Reed was still under the control of the Imperius Curse.

"Imperio!"

Andy added another Imperius Curse.

Then...

Andy took the crystal phial out of his pocket.
