Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

"Of course!"

Andy said confidently, "Maybe even I will be able to fight Voldemort in a few years."

If everything went well, Andy hoped to challenge Dumbledore after the start of the fourth year.

Magic transfiguration, the Obscurus...

If the plan was successful, Andy felt he would at least grow to be the strongest person under Dumbledore.

What was lacking was nothing more than knowledge, experience, and combat experience. Of course, the Elder Wand was also an important factor.

Although the strength of the Old Headmaster is a mystery.

But after Andy successfully steals the magic of death and becomes an Obscurial, there should be no problem escaping.

Besides, the Obscurus that Grindelwald mentioned...

To be honest, Andy doubts that Dumbledore can deal with an Obscurus.

No matter how powerful Dumbledore is, he is still within the realm of what wizards can understand. But that Obscurial named 'Credence' can blow up half a mountain with a single spell.

This is beyond the limits of wizards.

"I believe you have what it takes!" Hermione said seriously.

"Right!"

As if she had thought of something, Hermione continued, "Andy, Professor Snape... don't you think he's too obvious?"

Andy shrugged, saying, "It is a bit obvious! Voldemort had Peter Pettigrew investigate Harry and obviously discovered Harry's secret."

"But as soon as Harry saw Snape, the scar on his forehead started to hurt."

"This shows that Snape is just a pawn on the surface to attract attention, and Voldemort should have another plan."

At this, Andy patted Hermione's hand in comfort and said, "Don't worry; Dumbledore should have already thought of this, and he will handle it."

"During this Christmas holiday, Dumbledore asked Sirius to train Harry in duelling. Harry is a seeker, and his combat ability is definitely not bad."

When it comes to Seeker, Hermione can't help but think of Cedric, the Hufflepuff Seeker.

After more than two years of study and training, Hermione believes that her magical abilities are definitely not inferior to Cedric's. However, when it comes to actual combat, she is still no match for Cedric.

The reason for this is that Cedric's reaction speed is exceptionally fast.

After all, the physical strength of wizards is still in the category of ordinary people. No matter how much magic a wizard masters, a common stunning spell is enough to knock them out.

"Seriously, talent is just so unfair," Hermione said indignantly.

"There is a limit to the advantage of physical ability."

Andy smiled and said, "Like me! At first, Cedric and I were evenly matched. But when my magical attainments reached a certain level, Cedric was no longer my match."

Needless to say, it wasn't just Cedric.

As of today, Andy has gradually widened the gap even with people like Snape and Sirius.

Hermione raised her eyebrows and said with some reluctance, "That's why I said that talent is really unfair."

"In the past two years, whether it's studying or practising magic, my efforts have not necessarily been less than yours. But the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger."

Andy had nothing to say in response!

If Harry is the type with exceptionally high talent in [Mind] and [Will], then Hermione is the type with exceptionally advanced [Thinking] capabilities.

Harry can suddenly burst forth with incredible power at critical moments, while Hermione is just exceptionally strong in her memory and analytical skills.

These two people are both talented in their own ways.

It's just that... if expressed in terms of system data, their left-side talents are not particularly outstanding.

In other words, their highest achievements would probably be at the level of Sirius and Snape.

Even after the magic transfiguration, they would still be far from the top-level wizards like Voldemort, Dumbledore, and Grindelwald. Talent really can determine the upper limit of a wizard!

"Don't be discouraged!"

Andy pinched Hermione's little face, "You are very talented at the fusion of magic; as long as you keep working hard, you will become a powerful witch one day."

"Besides, once I make a breakthrough in the study of magic transfiguration, you will be able to break the limits of a wizard."

Hermione's voice raised a few notches on hearing this. "You are still studying magic transfiguration?"

"Er…"

Andy weakly explained, "It's not some dark magic! Magic transfiguration is a serious academic study, and it is also the magical path of Slytherin."

"Voldemort and even Dumbledore, they all possess the power of magic transfiguration!"

Hermione was stunned. "You mean Professor Dumbledore?"

"That's right!"

Andy said with conviction, "The ancestors of the Dumbledore family once used magic transfiguration to steal the power of the Phoenix. There is a rumour in the wizarding world that whenever a member of the Dumbledore family needs help, a phoenix will appear."

Hermione said with some hesitation, "But... doesn't magic transfiguration change a person beyond recognition?"

"That's not absolute!"

Andy explained: "Voldemort ended up looking hideous because he underwent multiple dark magic transfigurations, and the powerful foreign magic changed his life characteristics."

"If we choose a suitable power and undergo a single magic transfiguration, our appearance will not change as a result."

Having said that, Andy briefly explained his research on magic transfiguration.

"Magic comes from life."

"We use magic transfiguration to absorb the magic of nature, which then merges with our own magic and changes our life characteristics."

"Just like Animagus!"

With her intelligence, Hermione believed she understood Andy's meaning quickly.

In the study of magic, Hermione's enthusiasm was not inferior to Andy's. If magic transfiguration was indeed safe and harmless, Hermione naturally would not refuse.

"Andy, you're not going to..." Hermione asked tentatively.

She naturally understood what Andy meant.

Having reached this stage in his research, Hermione was convinced that Andy was ready to try magic transfiguration.

Andy didn't say anything.

But sometimes not denying something is the same as admitting it.

Hermione: "..."

"I know I can't stop you now."

Hermione's mood swung from one extreme to the other: "But it's so dangerous! Andy, we better be more careful and look at more cases."

Andy readily agreed, "Of course! I'm afraid of death; I'll do everything I can to prepare before the magic transfiguration."

Hermione was still not convinced. "Let's go to the restricted section tomorrow and check out the information on magic transfiguration. Oh yes, we also need to study the information compiled by Slytherin."

That would be perfect!

Although Andy has already started the dark magic transfiguration ritual, before actually transforming, Andy will definitely want to check out all kinds of information and make thorough preparations.

It would be best to find the rules of magic transfiguration.

With Hermione's help, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
