Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity

“‘The Way of the Superior Doctor’”? What's that?”

Although Hermione is known as 'Miss Know-It-All', she is only 12 years old.

Compared to Dumbledore, who could basically chime in no matter what Roger said, Hermione was clearly much more naive.

When Roger used certain terms with ancient Eastern influences, she would often feel confused.

“This comes from the ancient Eastern book 'Huangdi Neijing · Suwen', discussing the essentials of treating diseases, and later medical books of various dynasties have also mentioned it.”

Then Roger began to explain the meaning of it.

Nicolas Flamel agreed to become the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for Dumbledore not long before the start of school, around the time Roger was still on the moon.

Dumbledore busied himself with this, and in the process, the news of this old wizard, who had been dormant for many years, re-emerging became widely known.

Not only in Britain, but the wizarding communities of other countries had also heard about this.

Gilderoy Lockhart now has some fame in the British wizarding world, but compared to Nicolas Flamel—

Well, the two are simply not on the same level, even if Lockhart's experiences weren't plagiarized and were all real.

He would still be fundamentally unable to compare with this 'god' in the eyes of many alchemists!

Just like what Roger experienced before.

Nicolas Flamel, as the creator of the Sorcerer's Stone and one of the longest-lived wizards in the wizarding civilization, is famous far and wide.

However, his last action in front of the world can be traced back to the time of Grindelwald decades ago.

Too many wizards have only heard of him but never seen him.

Thus, rumors began to spread.

Amidst various rumors, the students of Hogwarts had endless expectations for this new professor on the one hand.

On the other hand, they were also worried about whether Nicolas Flamel could complete the teaching well.

Currently, there are three kinds of opinions in society.

One is that Nicolas Flamel's job is as an alchemist, can he handle Defense Against the Dark Arts?

Those who hold this view generally have a superficial understanding of this legendary figure.

They don't know that Nicolas Flamel is an alchemist and is also extremely proficient in Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Second, are those who worry about whether his body can withstand it.

These are the people who know Nicolas Flamel better.

They know that Nicolas Flamel's elixir of life can only grant longevity but not prevent aging.

Although his lifespan is long, his body has been aging.

Decades ago, Nicolas Flamel was already so old that he had to use both hands to support himself when picking up a brick, and the situation in recent years can be imagined.

Finally, there are those who are confused by this so-called course book list, like Hermione.

Many people are thinking about these questions, and Hermione in front of Roger is just a microcosm of the crowd.

“I think I understand.” Hermione nodded thoughtfully.

Under Roger's explanation, she roughly understood what 'The superior doctor treats the disease before it manifests, the inferior doctor treats the disease after it has manifested' meant.

“I see.” With the perspective of 'reducing students' exposure to the possibility of Dark Arts' from the beginning.

Looking at the book titles on that book list again, Hermione's long-blocked thoughts suddenly became clear.

Honestly, Hermione's experience in Defense Against the Dark Arts class in her first year was very bad.

Her first teacher was Quirrell, who was possessed by Voldemort.

Before being possessed, Quirrell was a responsible professor to an excessive degree, but after being possessed, his teaching to Hogwarts students couldn't be described as conscientious.

At the very least, it was a serious slacking off.

The professor was replaced by Snape in the second half of the semester, and there was a lot more useful content in the lectures.

However, the head of Slytherin teaching Gryffindor... Merlin's beard, this was simply a different kind of torture in the eyes of most Gryffindor students!

And now, she might really be able to look forward to the new semester.

Roger said that what he was talking about was just speculation.

But Roger is a Seer!

In Hermione's eyes, the Seer's speculation is basically equivalent to a prophecy.

In this world, not everyone likes to prepare everything in advance, fearing that temporary changes will delay things.

There are also many people who schedule their time relatively tightly and like to arrive just in time.

Of course, some people really have too many things to do and have to arrive just in time.

Walking on the streets of Diagon Alley, Roger and Hermione brushed past many familiar figures.

Some would stop to say hello to Roger, but more would turn a blind eye.

This is not surprising, after experiencing going to Knockturn Alley with Harry during the summer vacation to 'stock up', the street was crowded when they went, and empty when they left.

Roger already had a clear understanding of his reputation in the British wizarding world.

The wizard robe Roger is wearing now is also an alchemical item.

It has an effect similar to the Confundus Charm, except for people who are very familiar and have a strong impression of Roger, otherwise it is difficult for the other party to recognize Roger before Roger talks to them.

This is Roger's version of the Invisibility Cloak, not physical invisibility, but invisibility in the other party's perception—because it will cancel the effect when facing it directly, so it can only be used as a 'veil', and don't even think about using it for tactical purposes.

But even so, its effect has been highly praised by Mr. Ollivander.

“I think many famous wizards would want to have one.”

“When we gain fame and status, false prosperity will surround us, making it difficult for us to see the real world.”

“And it may allow us to return to an ordinary perspective to observe everything.”

Ollivander examined Roger's wand while looking Roger up and down.

Unlike the newly enrolled young wizards, Roger and Hermione didn't have many things to buy, only new textbooks and new equipment needed for courses such as potions and herbology.

Such as protective dragon hide gloves, magical earmuffs, and the like.

Roger, who quickly finished shopping, did not leave Diagon Alley, but went to Ollivander's Wand Shop. Last year, he obtained his own wand here.

And this year he came here again because “I think I probably understand why you have a feeling of disharmony with your wand.” Ollivander said after observing the wand and Roger.

Normally speaking, a wand is not a simple magical item.

It is actually a symbiotic relationship with the wizard.

The wand chooses the wizard, and the wizard also chooses the wand.

The two will complement each other and grow together. Even if there is slight damage during use, it will slowly repair itself.

Therefore, except for the wand being accidentally broken, and the wizard's personality suddenly changing, leading to the old wand not being suitable, Ollivander's Wand Shop rarely has 'return customers'.

And Roger's situation is a problem that the Ollivander family has never encountered since they started making wands two thousand years ago!

“Did you only recently start feeling the disharmony? What is the specific time?” Ollivander asked further.

Roger replied: “Around the beginning of August, I started to have this feeling.”

At that time, Roger was still on the moon. Although this extremely subtle disharmony does not currently affect spellcasting too much, Roger always feels awkward.

So since he came, Roger wanted Ollivander, the real wand expert, to help him see if there was a good solution.

Although Roger has a wide range of knowledge, he is not proficient in every aspect. Since there are ready-made experts, naturally he should let the experts handle it.

Ollivander nodded: “Although your situation is extremely rare, the reason is not complicated.”

“Your power is growing too fast and too strong. Your wand—can't keep up with your pace anymore.”

As one of the world's three major wand makers, Ollivander can sense what kind of terrifying power has flowed through this wand as soon as he puts his hand on it!

“So that's how it is, then do you have any good solutions?” Roger was not surprised by this answer.

His temperament has not changed, so either it is the reason for the strength, or the influence of the space environment.

Or the time backlash when using the Time Plague, and the mental pollution of Imaginary Creation.

In total, there are only these four possibilities.

Roger had already guessed the reason, what he really lacked was a solution.

“This…” Ollivander's face was a little embarrassed.

“Generally speaking, there is no solution.”

“Huh? What do you mean?” This answer was really a bit beyond Roger's expectations.

“It's easy to say that strength grows, it is impossible for a person to always maintain a state of soaring strength, as long as the pace slows down, the wand will soon be able to catch up.”

“The key is, your power is too strong.”

Speaking of this, Ollivander paused: “The main body is fir wood, and the wand core is unicorn tail hair. The basic materials of the wand are here.”

“No matter how strengthened, this material cannot withstand your extremely violent spellcasting methods, and cannot bear the power you wield when casting spells.”

Endless light and heat, intertwined and folded time and space, massive amounts of thoughts gathered, and various other powerful forces that Ollivander could not understand.

The rhythm of spellcasting is also, hundreds of high-intensity Apparitions within a day, and Time Magic is cast every day.

Honestly, it is already a miracle that this wand has lasted until now, only making Roger feel a slight disharmony.

Instead of directly exploding into a pile of wood chips.

In Ollivander's eyes, it is already a miracle.

But even if it is a miracle, it cannot change the underlying material structure of this wand.

“The real trouble is not just this.” Ollivander's face became serious.

"It's not just the wand you're using. All the wand materials I know of would probably struggle to withstand you using them like this."

"Except..."

"The Elder Wand?" Ollivander was still hesitant, but Roger directly spoke the answer.

"Yes, perhaps that legendary Deathly Hallow might be able to withstand your power. But I can't guarantee it, as I haven't studied the Elder Wand in detail."

Ollivander spoke truthfully.

Roger shook his head: "Forget it. I don't like that wand that follows whoever is strongest."

Roger reached out and took his fir wand from Ollivander's hand: "I still prefer this one."

Ollivander was silent. The wizard chose his first wand, which pleased the wandmaker. But

"Mr. Ollivander, I understand what you mean. So, as long as the material of my wand undergoes a qualitative change, the problem can be solved, right?"

"Theoretically, yes, but as far as I know, there is no material of that level in the world."

"And even if the strength is sufficient, you must also consider compatibility. Its magical properties must be compatible with you."

Roger thought for a moment and bowed to Ollivander: "Could you please impart some knowledge about wands to me? I think I might have a way to solve this problem."

Roger's idea was simple.

If there is no path to eternal life, then I will create one myself.

If there is no suitable material, then I will create one from scratch.

The moment he made this decision, three solutions appeared in Roger's mind.

One was Dimensional Magic: Imagination Creation.

One was Dimensional Magic: Material Recomposition.

Finally, there was the second path of magic that Roger had developed himself, different from Dumbledore's path of mental power, which Hermione had said to consider!
