Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

After the opening dinner, Hogwarts once again returned to its usual tranquillity. The professors were busy teaching, the young wizards were busy with their studies, and everything seemed no different from before.

But as someone involved in the whole thing, Andy could sense a looming storm.

Harry had already met Dumbledore.

As Andy had expected, Dumbledore's attitude could be summed up in just one word:

Perfunctory!

Of course, Harry didn't feel like he had been treated perfunctorily.

On the contrary, after meeting Dumbledore, Harry seemed full of confidence. He told Andy privately that Dumbledore would monitor Snape's every move.

Hearing this, Andy instantly understood what Dumbledore was up to.

Does Snape need to be monitored?

Voldemort intended to put Snape in the spotlight to attract everyone's attention and play a trick.

Dumbledore personally monitors Snape; it is basically drawing a line in the sand and confronting Snape in the air.

The situation is actually clear as day.

Voldemort wants to regain his strength, and Dumbledore also wants Voldemort to regain his strength.

Although these two are hostile to each other and wish to kill each other at the first opportunity, they are exceptionally well coordinated in this matter.

Although Snape is just a pawn, he actually understands everything in his heart.

But what can Snape do?

If he wants to protect Harry, he must kill Voldemort.

But to kill Voldemort, he must restore Voldemort's power, thereby stimulating the Voldemort remnant soul in Harry's body.

Then, with Harry's assistance, they can find and destroy all of Voldemort's Horcruxes.

This is the best and only way.

Sandwiched between the two bosses, both good and evil, Snape, even if he is unwilling, can only go with the flow and do as he is told.

If he wants to break the deadlock, he can only look for another opportunity.

It can even be said that throughout the whole incident, the only person who has been played with and kept in the dark is Harry.

Well...there is Sirius, too.

But Harry and Sirius are willing!

They were not only willing; they were enthusiastic.

Once he had figured out the whole thing, Andy once again realised how terrifying Dumbledore was.

Dumbledore hadn't actually done anything.

But everything and everyone was moving according to Dumbledore's will.

Voldemort wanted to resurrect, Snape wanted to protect Harry, and Harry and Sirius wanted revenge.

They were all acting according to their own wills.

But this was the result Dumbledore wanted.

Andy couldn't even find fault with Dumbledore, because the only thing Dumbledore had done was to restrict himself by 'watching over Snape'.

Harry was very satisfied with this.

Because, in Harry's opinion, Dumbledore had finally 'suspected' Snape, which was undoubtedly the best result.

Ha! Snape, you can't escape this time.

***

At this point, Andy could only back off.

On the second day of school, Andy devoted all his energy solely to learning magic.

There was a lot of homework every day.

The rest of the time was spent either looking up information on magic transfiguration or practising magic.

Hermione was initially a little worried about Harry's safety, but after just a few days, the young witch was so busy that she had no time to think about anything else.

With the note from Professor Flitwick, Andy and Hermione nearly ransacked the restricted book section.

Of course, the results were obvious. A month after the start of the semester, Andy and Hermione had reviewed a large amount of information on magic transfiguration; combined with the manuscripts and books left behind by Slytherin and the portable grandfather Grindelwald, they had finally come up with a preliminary summary of the principles behind magic transfiguration.

That is, how to pair magic potions with the magic of nature.

At the moment, only the 'incantation' barrier has not yet been broken.

Many things are easier when you stand on the shoulders of giants.

The dark magic transfiguration method used by Andy is considered a 'wildcard' among all magic transfigurations.

It uses blood as a trigger to contain and incorporate the magic of nature.

Then, through the step of 'brewing the potion', the blood and the magic of nature are further combined, turning it into a power that can be absorbed by the body.

Having summed up the rules, Andy naturally feels full of confidence.

During his exchanges with Grindelwald, Andy also discussed his previous dark magic transfiguration experiment with Grindelwald.

His views were similar to Andy's.

There is nothing wrong with dark magic transformation itself, and there are many reasons why Reed died in the dark magic transfiguration, but the main reason is Reed's own mental state.

In Grindelwald's opinion, Andy's experimental methods are actually quite crude.

The best way to experiment with magic transfiguration is to get the person involved to cooperate actively.

In this regard, Slytherin was very clever.

He used secret lessons as an excuse to get the students to cooperate with his experiments. It is precisely because of this that Slytherin was able to leave behind so much data on magic transfiguration.

February 2nd.

Hogwarts, Astronomy Tower.

"Mr. Grindelwald, do you think I can succeed?" Andy sat under the window sill, holding a Two-way mirror in his hands, with a hint of hope on his face.

Tonight is the seventh Dark Magic Transfiguration ritual.

After this ritual, Andy only needs to wait patiently for the new moon to arrive before he can officially brew the dark magic transfiguration potion.

Andy checked the time.

The next new moon will be on the tenth of this month.

It's only eight days away!

"Scared?" Grindelwald asked indifferently.

"A bit nervous," Andy didn't deny it.

Although the magic transfiguration is not a matter of life or death, the consequence of failure is becoming neither human nor ghost.

The result of Voldemort is actually considered good.

In the worst-case scenario, you will become a real monstrous creature.

"As long as the ritual is fine, the possibility of failure is not high."

Facing Andy, a 'friend' from a different generation, Grindelwald said seriously, "As long as you survive the 'assimilation' stage, the subsequent integration stage will not be too dangerous."

"That's easy for you to say," Andy said bitterly.

Grindelwald said lightly, "Didn't we discuss this before? The human 'Will' can resist most of the negative effects of magic. You have to rely on yourself to get through this; no one else can help you."

"As long as your 'Will' is strong enough, even if the magic transfiguration fails, you can still survive."

Andy was silent for a while after hearing this.

He opened the system panel.

[Potential Points: 6]

[Will: 6]

In less than ten days, Andy will be able to increase his Will attribute to seven points.

"Of course, I have a strong 'Will'," Andy said confidently.

Grindelwald explained, "The power of magic comes from the mind, and the 'Will'...is the mind's defence, which can resist the negative effects of magic."

"Not just for magic transfiguration, but also in the case of Obscurus control!"
