Hogwarts: The Savior's Strong Cousin

Not only that, Harry also found that he had a deeper understanding of magic. He began to feel the deep power behind each spell and how these powers resonated with his heart. This understanding made him more comfortable in performing magic, no longer relying on brute force as before, but focusing more on skills and inner strength.

"This feels so good," Harry exclaimed after successfully casting a spell. He knew that he had embarked on a new path of magic practice, which not only improved his magical ability, but also made him understand the true meaning of magic.

Hermione and Ron soon noticed the change in Harry. During a casual chat after class, Hermione couldn't help asking, "Harry, I feel like your magic has been smoother lately. Have you found any new methods?"

Harry smiled and nodded, his heart full of gratitude to Hermione. He knew that he could not get to this point without Hermione's help. "Yes, Hermione, I have been practicing a new method recently, called 'magic meditation'. It allows me to focus more on my inner strength, thereby improving the effectiveness of my magic. A glimmer of joy flashed in his eyes, "I knew you would find a solution, Harry. Magic meditation sounds very interesting, maybe I should try it too."

Ron showed a curious expression on the side. "It sounds mysterious. I wonder if this can help me concentrate better before the exam."

Harry and Hermione both laughed, and Harry patted Ron on the shoulder, "Perhaps you can try, Ron, but don't forget that the core of magic is inner strength, not simple concentration."

In the following days, Harry continued to practice meditation, and his magic ability continued to improve. Although the road ahead is still full of unknowns and challenges, he has found the right direction. On this road, he must not only continuously improve his magic ability, but also constantly cultivate his heart and find the true fun and power of magic.

Harry Potter walked in the corridor leading to the headmaster's office, feeling both anticipation and a little uneasiness. Ever since he began to practice "magical meditation" in depth and felt a significant increase in his magical power, he had more questions in his heart. These questions kept circling in his mind, and eventually prompted him to decide to have an in-depth conversation with the headmaster's portrait again. He hoped to get more guidance from Dumbledore's wisdom to help him better understand everything he had experienced.

The stairs slowly turned in front of Harry, and he walked into the familiar door, pushing open the heavy wooden door leading to the headmaster's office with a little awe. The furnishings inside the door were still as he remembered, with ancient magic books on the bookshelves and portraits of past headmasters hanging on the walls, their eyes fixed on Harry, and everyone's eyes seemed to be shining with some elusive wisdom.

Dumbledore's portrait smiled slightly when he saw Harry come in, and put down the book in his hand, his eyes full of kindness and concern. "Harry, how is your training recently? You seem more confident."

Harry walked up to the portrait and nodded solemnly, "Professor, I do feel my own progress, but at the same time, more questions come to my mind. These questions make me a little confused and even a little scared."

Dumbledore looked at Harry softly, as if he could see through his heart at a glance. "The progress you feel is a good thing, Harry, but it also means that you are facing more challenges. These doubts and confusions are part of growth. Tell me, what are the doubts in your heart?"

Harry was silent for a while, sorting out his thoughts, and then said: "Professor, my recent practice has made me feel the great potential of magic, but I have also begun to realize that this power does not only rely on spells or wands, but is more closely related to the state of mind. However, I am not sure whether I can control this power. I am worried that if I cannot maintain my inner balance, this power will backfire on me and even affect the people around me."

Dumbledore's portrait nodded slightly, with a trace of deep thought in his eyes. "Your concerns are justified, Harry. Magic is indeed an extremely powerful force, and this power needs to be controlled by a strong and balanced heart. Your recognition of this shows that your understanding of magic is becoming more profound."

Harry frowned, his inner confusion still not completely dissipated. "But Professor, how can I ensure that I always maintain my inner balance? Sometimes, I feel anxious, especially when I feel the power of magic is getting stronger and stronger. I am worried that I will get lost in it."

Dumbledore's portrait smiled comfortingly. "Harry, inner balance is not static. You have to understand that anxiety and fear are also part of human nature. They are not terrible. What matters is how you deal with them. The anxiety you feel during your training is your awe of the unknown power, which means you are growing. The key is that you have to learn to accept these emotions instead of trying to suppress them."

Harry nodded thoughtfully, and he began to understand what Dumbledore meant. "So, I need to face my emotions and my fears instead of trying to eliminate them?"

Dumbledore's portrait smiled, his tone gentle but firm. "That's right, Harry. The essence of magic is understanding, not control. The more you try to suppress your emotions, the more difficult it will be to control them. On the contrary, if you can accept them and learn to coexist with them, you will find that inner balance will naturally form over time."

Harry felt a sense of relief, as if a burden in his heart had been released. He looked at Dumbledore's portrait with gratitude, "Thank you, Professor. This has given me a new understanding of my own practice. I will try to learn to accept my inner self instead of trying to control it."

Dumbledore's portrait smiled and nodded, with a look of relief in his eyes. "You are on the right path, Harry. Remember, growth is not only about the improvement of strength, but also about the maturity of the heart. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, keep your confidence and understanding of yourself, and you will find that everything will have a solution."

Harry took a deep breath and felt his inner peace return. He stood up and prepared to leave the office to continue his practice and study.
