The days of hanging out at Hogwarts

Black mark.

Dumbledore thought about this and looked at Harry's scar, his eyes darkening.

Voldemort's influence on Harry was deeper than he thought, and the connection between the two seemed closer.

He suspected that the black mark that broke the troll's skin was because Harry had inadvertently used the power left in the scar by Voldemort.

Regarding the condition of the scar, Dumbledore had some thoughts, but did not show it on his face. Perhaps some changes should be made to Quirrell's plan.

“Wonderful opportunity!”

Dumbledore turned to look at Hermione, Ron, and Harry in turn, and praised: "Wisdom, sacrifice, courage, even just listening to your narration, I can see the brilliance of these qualities."

Harry and Hermione blushed when they heard this.

Loren clicked his tongue, not taking it seriously, "Is there a reward?"

Dumbledore refused to answer the question and looked into Loren's eyes, "I have some vague guesses about the strange light you saw."

Several people looked at Dumbledore curiously.

"The wizard's magic is closely related to the soul and emotions. I think that when you first discovered that you were unusual, your emotions were also unusual."

Harry recalled some of his magical experiences, when he was chased by Dudley's group and ended up flying up a chimney. At the zoo, he wanted to give Dudley a little power, making the glass disappear and releasing the python.

Hermione remembered that when she was a child, she read a fairy tale book and found it so exciting that she was so excited that her whole body floated together with the book.

Loren thought of his magical eyes. He felt that his awakening of magic began with his eyes.

Dumbledore waited quietly for several people to wake up from their memories, and then said: "The soul of the young wizard is not stable, and it is easier for magic power to riot when emotions are turbulent."

Generally speaking, little wizards below the third grade are at the bottom, and their magic power cannot even cast slightly more advanced spells.

As they grow older, older students gain access to spells that are more complex and require more magic power. For example, in summoning guardians and phantoms, apart from the wizard's understanding of magic, magic is also a limiting factor.

Individual adult wizards are too different to be categorized.

There is a gap between ordinary wizards and Aurors, there is a gap between Aurors and Hogwarts professors, there is also a gap between dueling champions like Flitwick and professors like Quirrell, and beyond that there are only a few The realm of personal existence.

The growth of magic power is not just a simple relationship between quantity, not how many spells a young wizard can cast, or how many spells an adult wizard can cast.

It has more to do with quality. Magic of different qualities casts the same magic and has completely different effects. There are many factors involved, and no one can explain it clearly.

When Loren was having fun, he could keep releasing [Open Door] for most of the day. When he was fighting a troll, a single flame would hollow him out.

Loren asked aloud: "Principal Dumbledore, why can emotions promote the growth of magic?"

"I don't know, Loren." Dumbledore ran a hand through his beard.

This answer surprised several people. There was something that the famous Dumbledore didn't know.

"In fact, most of the mysteries of magic remain unknown."

Dumbledore explained, and then said: "Emotions may also play a bad role. Long-term suppressed emotions may lead to Obscurus."

"Obscurial!" Hermione exclaimed, covering her mouth, she knew this.

Some unfortunate little wizards dislike their own magic, and their long-term suppressed emotions will cause their magic to mutate, causing harm to others and themselves.

Silently, Dumbledore remembered what happened decades ago, such people, such ideals.

"Headmaster? Headmaster Dumbledore?"

It wasn't until Loren called him that Dumbledore came back to his senses, "Sorry, I'm getting older and I can't concentrate."

Dumbledore continued: "When magic riots, wizards will follow an instinct. They may release some magic, become impulsive, or they may do nothing. No one can tell."

Harry thought back to his state at that time and understood why he rushed towards the troll.

"It turned out to be a magic riot, so I asked myself how could I be so impulsive!" Harry giggled.

"In fact, magic riot is following your instinct." Dumbledore repeated this sentence.

Harry felt that this might not be a good thing to say, so he stammered and asked, "What, what do you mean?"

Loren chuckled: "It means you are very impulsive."

No one teased him, but Harry felt that Dumbledore's smile was glaring.

Hermione tried hard to hold back a serious expression. She was very serious, if you didn't look at her shaking shoulders.

"Courage is a precious quality."

Dumbledore changed the subject, "In my perception, as an old wizard, the four of you all have residual magic fluctuations in your bodies."

Loren was a little surprised. He thought it was only Harry and Ron, but he and Hermione also rioted with magic.

Seeming to see Loren's doubts, Dumbledore explained: "Both life and death have powerful magic. You are on the edge of life and death. Your magic, body, and soul are all in an extraordinary state. Magic riots are just big or small. The problem."

Hermione nodded, "I feel a little more relaxed about casting spells in class."

"Don't cast spells with all your strength for at least a week or two. The increase in magic power will continue for a while." Dumbledore warned a few people.

Dumbledore looked at Ron, "Even now, your friend who dares to sacrifice himself still has a strong surge of magic in his body."

Several people's eyes were focused on Ron. Ron was bandaged, the tip of his nose was still a little red, and his expression was calm.

"He felt very guilty and thought he was the one who put us in danger," Harry said.

Hermione was also a little depressed, "It's all my fault. I was too self-righteous. Ron just didn't fit the wand." Ron fell to the ground and vomited blood. She thought Ron was dead.

Harry and Loren were a little silent. It would be easy to buy Ron a wand, but Ron wouldn't accept it. Friendship would become strange if it was mixed with galleons.

Peter Pettigrew's chestnut wand that Loren had planned before was confiscated by the Ministry of Magic, and he has no other choice now.

"Madam Pomfrey said his injuries are not serious," Harry said softly.

Dumbledore praised: "He cherishes friendship and has the courage to sacrifice. He is a true Gryffindor."

Loren also admitted that although Ron was usually greedy, didn't like to study, and was used to complaining about things, he was really into it when something happened.

"I think although the troll doesn't have any special magic materials, it can still be sold for a certain price." Dumbledore looked at the few people with a smile.

"I can convert the troll into galleons and reward you with it, about 50 galleons."

A wand costs 7 Galleons, Hermione quickly calculated, "It's enough to buy a wand if you give Ron a share!"

Harry hesitated: "Is this okay?" He gave all the money from selling the troll to a few students.

"Of course, you eliminated the trolls and maintained the safety of the castle. You deserve this." Dumbledore mentioned another thing, "You eliminated the trolls, but you also violated the school rules by leaving the team and acting alone—— "

Hermione looked at Dumbledore intently, as if Dumbledore was about to announce her final results at the next moment.

"If the merits and demerits balance out, there will be no points deducted."

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.

"But you have to go to Professor Snape to be detained!"

The little witch's expression became dejected.

Loren had been with Snape for a long time and was fine with it.

Harry was about to explode, "Can you change the professor? Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, even Professor Binns!"

Harry felt that he would be targeted by Snape in class, let alone in solitary confinement. Snape would definitely feed him various poisons, and then let Loren and the others prepare the antidote!

Dumbledore did not change his mind, chatted with a few people for a while, told them to take a good rest, listen to Madam Pomfrey's words, and took Hermione back.

"You guys have a good rest, Simo and the others will come to see you tomorrow!" The little witch waved her hand and closed the door.
