The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

In the afternoon, Erwin went to Professor Flitwick's office as scheduled to report on his studies for the week.

According to the normal teaching progress of the Hogwarts Charms class, three spells are usually taught in two weeks. Although these spells are not necessarily very practical, the teaching process can cultivate the young wizard's ability to cast spells, so it is essential.

Of course, Erwin is an exception.

Professor Flitwick sat in the raised office chair and made a gesture of initiation.

Erwin demonstrated his proficiency in softening and repairing spells to a copper wax seal.Professor Flitwick applauded and expressed his admiration. He didn't simply examine Irwin, but also spent about half an hour explaining the derivative usage and precautions of these two spells, which are not found in standard spell books. It belongs to the personal experience of the professor.Finally, with a wave of his hand, Flitwick doubled Erwin's study load for the next week.

"Let's see your limits, Erwin." There was a smile on every wrinkle on Flitwick's face. "You almost have fifth-grade magic power right now, maybe in two or three years you will be able to take the standard wizard qualification exam directly."

It is a treat for a teaching teacher to impart knowledge to an excellent student.

"Then after I've learned all the standard spells, won't I stop using them?" Erwin raised his eyebrows.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be something new to teach you." Professor Flitwick said with a hint of arrogance in his tone.

Erwin recalled the rumors about this short professor among the students. Flitwick was undoubtedly a master of spells, and he was a duel champion when he was young. This may be due to his short stature. Wizard society should have Serious discrimination against fat people, because Hagrid's body type was at least twenty times more likely to be hit by the curse than Flitwick.

In short, if he can learn something special from him, Erwin must have made a lot of money.

Another night was spent, and in the early morning of the next day, Erwin got up, jogged out of the castle, and greeted the gamekeeper who also got up early, "Good morning, Mr. Hagrid."

Hagrid froze for a moment, Erwin had already run away. "Good morning," Hagrid called after him.

He is really rarely called Mister by Hogwarts students.

Erwin went to the owl shed on the way, but didn't see Saby. Owls are not very good at flying birds. Even if they are special species bred by magic, it seems that they can't go back and forth between Hogwarts and Hogwarts in half a day. London.

Arriving at the auditorium precisely during the breakfast time, Erwin happened to see the kid Malfoy at the door looking for trouble with the kid Potter again. The source of the dispute was a long package.

"This is not an ordinary broom, it's Nimbus Two Thousand, which Professor McGonagall licensed to Harry." Ron, who has been inseparable from Potter, shouted. After he started school, he was constantly mocked by Malfoy about his family background and self-esteem After receiving a lot of damage, he will not let go of any chance to fight back.

Not only was Malfoy taken aback, but Erwin couldn't help but stop, "Professor McGonagall's permission? Did she buy this broom for Harry?"

Ron knew that he had slipped his tongue, so he hesitated.

Erwin saw Professor Flitwick approaching from the corner of his eye, and realized that he didn't need to intervene in this conflict.After finishing his breakfast, he rushed straight to the main building of the castle, just in time to block Professor McGonagall at the door of the office.

"Fair! Professor! Fair! Professor!" Erwin looked excited and his tone was angry, "How should I explain Potter's broom?"

A rare look of embarrassment appeared on Professor McGonagall's face. "Harry's parents are heroes. It can be said that every British wizard owes them favors...I bought the broom with several other professors, which is a little compensation for Harry."

"You must have selfish intentions." Erwin said firmly.

McGonagall was a little speechless, her hunch was correct, this child was indeed the most troublesome student at Hogwarts, and she had never been questioned by students like this in her previous decades of teaching career.

"Harry has a very good Quidditch talent just like his father..." Professor McGonagall couldn't continue. She just talked to the boy in front of her a few days ago to be fair and just, but then she gave Harry Potter a prescription. The back door is really unreasonable.

"Okay," she finally said, "I know what you want, and you can leave the get out of class early in the future, but the premise is that you fully master the transformation content I taught that day."

Erwin knew he had won, "Thank you very much, Professor." He didn't forget to be polite.

In fact, students with high talents would choose to skip a grade, but Erwin would never do that. He wished he could stay at Hogwarts for a few more years.

It wasn't until night that Sabi brought a reply. Erwin opened the letter sent by Stuart first. On the letter paper was a large section of densely packed text.

"Disillusionment Curse, Disappearing Curse, Warning Curse, Detecting Curse, Anti-Locking Curse... Good guy," Erwin couldn't help but smacked his lips, Dipper really didn't hide anything.

Although his combat prowess is weak, his ability to escape is first-rate—otherwise, he would not have survived to this day.

Erwin carefully put the stack of letters into the locker in the suitcase. These spells should not be taught by Hogwarts, so they must be kept carefully.He then opened another letter, but the Diagon Alley Pharmacy didn't send him the Fountain of Power, and inside the envelope were a few shiny coins besides the letter paper.

A total of nine Galleons and twelve Sickles.

Erwin was not happy, he just asked for help to identify it, and he didn't want to sell it.

"If there are more dragon's blood extracts, we will buy them at a high price of 140 Galleons per ounce." The letter read.

It was indeed a very generous price, but Erwin calculated that the amount of Galleons needed to extract one ounce of the Fountain of Power was about three hundred.

Gan, profiteer.

Also, according to the rules of financial currency, it is impossible for goblins to mint currency whose actual value is greater than or equal to the face value. The cost of minting one galleon is less than half a galleon, and the difference is the seigniorage, which all goes into the goblin's pocket.

To what extent did the Minister of Magic back then allow a non-human race to control the economy of the entire wizarding society?

However, Erwin finally knew what the Fountain of Power was, the purified product of dragon's blood, which the goblins added to Gallon as a guarantee of value.

Then, another question that has been bothering Erwin before has the answer, where is the magic power stored?It's not the soul, because those ghosts have no ability to cast spells, and it can't be bones, nerves or muscles, because if the magic power is stored in those places, there will be a very obvious feeling, so there is only one answer left.

blood.

So the magic power will mainly increase with age.

So those wizarding families honor pure blood and think that Muggle-born wizards will pollute their blood.

So drinking the Fountain of Power can immediately increase the strength of the magic power for a period of time. In essence, the magic power contained in the liquid penetrates directly into the blood through the stomach, and can be used for casting spells immediately.

But knowing this is useless for the time being, he will not be able to make money in a short time, unless he is willing to trade at a loss.

A loss of more than 50.00% is a business that no fool will do.

Erwin stuffed the letter into the suitcase, and lay down on the bed, and slept honestly when he had no money.

Before falling asleep in a daze, he vaguely heard Neville saying that his wrist still hurts a little.

In the new week, Erwin did not directly practice the spell that Dipper gave him, but went to the library again. This time he borrowed books related to spells, and even a complete set of "Standard Spells".

Only systematic and step-by-step learning can be efficient. Although he has to report to Professor Flitwick every week, Erwin does not intend to follow the textbook, he is ready to find his own rhythm.

There are many types of spells, and even peeling lemons can have a special spell. At least one-third of the Hogwarts collection contains various spells, but most of them are not important. Erwin finally selected In addition to the three priority learning items.

Armor body protection, which can prevent general magic damage and reflect some spells.

Immediate stop of spells, removes the continuous effects of general spells.

Cleaned up, able to remove stains, liquids and dust, belongs to the lowest level of disappearing spell.

Erwin believes that offensive abilities are useless to him at the moment, his pistol is enough, and protective spells are much less important than offensive spells , can not only help resist possible unknown threats, but also enable him to deal with accidents in learning magic, such as spells out of control and potions leaking.

Although the essence of magic is that wizards change the world with their thinking and will, learning new magic generally starts with spells, so that magic can be controlled and operable. Spells are the only way to recognize a magic.And magic that does not require spells and wands by nature can indeed be called a natural ability, such as Erwin's kinetic energy.

Erwin originally wanted to find some healing spells, after all, according to Neville, the school doctor Madam Pomfrey healed his broken wrist "all at once".And in the end, I couldn't even find a book on medical treatment.

Are even the simplest healing spells in the restricted area?

The so-called banned books mean that students must have a valid reason and get the consent of a professor before they can borrow a specific book.

Also, if medical magic is very popular, there is no need for Hogwarts to set up a school doctor post.

Since the high-end magic knowledge is in the restricted area, Erwin feels that one day he will also do it, so the practice of the spells provided by Dipper must also be put on the agenda.

The difficulty of these spells is not comparable to the basic spells such as the ignition spell and the lighting spell. Professor Flitwick said that Erwin's magic power level is at least the level of a fifth-grade student, but he has just reached the threshold of practice.

It is conceivable that in the next one or two months or even until the end of the semester, his main energy will be on learning these spells. After all, talent is not the decisive factor, and long-term hard work is required.

if not?He is only 12 years old, is it possible that he can reach the level of the Dark Lord after only learning magic for a year or two?
