Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

After preparing the dark magic transfiguration potion, Andy experienced what it feels like to have the time stretch out endlessly.

Andy thought about the magic transfiguration every minute and second after that day. Whenever he had a moment to spare, Andy couldn't help but worry about the potion and couldn't control his thoughts.

So much so that the next night, Andy used the Time Turner again and deliberately checked on the progress of the potion.

Of course, the result showed that everything was fine.

There was no other way. To relieve this anxiety, Andy had to use Occlumency to empty his thoughts and force himself not to think about anything related to magic transfiguration.

In this way, Andy finally felt much more relaxed.

***

Another day had passed.

Saturday, 12th February.

Location: the magic practice room, transformed by the Room of Requirement.

Andy sat cross-legged on the floor and opened the system panel.

[Potential points: 7]

"Finally, the day has come."

Andy tried to hold back his excitement. "I, Andy, have achieved my current strength through my own hard work! Now, add some points!"

As [Potential Points] were reset to zero, Andy's [Will] talent increased to seven points.

Will is the mental defence.

It can effectively resist the side effects of magic.

Especially against the side effects of dark magic, the [Will] attribute is highly effective in this regard.

Since the start of the school year, Andy has also been practising dark magic. Under Grindelwald's guidance, Andy's proficiency in dark magic has significantly increased.

His actual combat ability has also been strengthened to a certain extent.

After all, dark magic is far more lethal than white magic, which is a fact recognised by everyone in the magical world.

Especially the Fiendfyre curse

Grindelwald's Fiendfyre curse—Protego Diabolica—is simply overpowering. Under the old man's guidance, Andy has made significant progress in mastering it.

A normal Fiendfyre curse would destroy everything that could possibly burn, regardless of friend or foe.

But Grindelwald's Fiendfyre curse can clearly distinguish between friend and foe. He can even use it to check the loyalty of his followers.

How outrageous!

According to Grindelwald's personal interpretation of the Fiendfyre curse, he believes that it is also a fusion of the mind and magic.

Unlike the Patronus Charm, the Fiendfyre curse is a way to vent the inner feelings of tyranny and destruction through magic.

Because it incorporates the caster's mental strength, the Fiendfyre curse can grow on its own. Empowered by the tyrannical and destructive mental strength, the Fiendfyre curse will incinerate everything that can possibly burn.

Therefore, the principle of improving the Fiendfyre curse is also very simple.

Since it is a fusion of mind and magic, all you need to do is add a 'specific mental power' when casting the spell.

But it is always easier said than done in magic.

Knowing the principle is not the same as being able to do it.

When casting the spell, emotions and magic are closely linked. Using the wrong mental power will often result in the failure of the spell.

Fortunately, Andy's [Mind] attribute is as high as six points.

With a lot of practice, Andy's Fiendfyre curse can no longer harm him.

However, to reach the level of Grindelwald, Andy feels that he still needs to improve his Dark Magic talent or practice for a few more years.

In short, Andy has gained a lot since the start of the semester.

'There are still nearly five months until summer holiday, um...about 140 days,'

Andy silently calculates in his mind.

'One hundred and forty days... If all goes well, I can probably accumulate fourteen [Potential Points].'

'It takes seven Potential Points to increase [Mind] a bit, and [Magic]...'

Andy currently only has three [Magic] attributes.

But after successfully transforming his magic, his [Magic] attributes will definitely increase.

'That should be enough!'

After calculating, Andy made a decision.

Before the summer holiday, he will first increase his [Mind] attributes to seven.

In this way, Andy will be able to better control his magic and complete the fusion of his mind and magic during the summer holiday.

There is no doubt that this year will be the year Andy breaks through the limits of an ordinary wizard.

If all goes well, by the time the fourth year begins, Andy will truly reach the level of Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and Voldemort and completely widen the gap with ordinary wizards.

'I am going to take off!'

Andy couldn't help but feel a little excited.

In this way, even if Voldemort resurrects, there is nothing to fear.

By then, as long as he protects his family with the Fidelius Charm, Andy dares to face Voldemort one-on-one.

Who's afraid of whom?

***

"Hm? Andy, what's wrong? You look tired," Hermione asked, surprised to see Andy sitting on the ground relaxing.

Hermione has also been working hard.

Although the young witch's spell power is mediocre, she has mastered a wide range of spells and is very talented at fusion magic. After this period of unremitting hard work, her strength has also improved a lot.

"Hermione, come here! I will show you something cool," Andy said excitedly.

"What?" Hermione was taken aback.

When practising magic with Hermione, Andy naturally wouldn't practice dark magic. But Andy was in a good mood today, so he planned to show Hermione something and broaden her horizons.

The young witch walked over with a look of curiosity, sat down opposite Andy, and asked curiously, "What are you going to show me?"

"This," Andy said, taking out his wand and conjuring a small ball of Fiendfyre.

"Fiendfyre curse? What's so mysterious about this spell?" Hermione asked.

After spending so much time with Andy, Hermione was no longer afraid of dark magic. However, Hermione's bottom line was very high, and she never learnt dark magic herself.

Andy gave a smug, self-satisfied chuckle and controlled the Fiendfyre to fly into his hands.

"Andy—" Hermione's face changed.

The young witch was a little panicked at first, but when she saw that the Fiendfyre didn't harm Andy, her face took on an incredibly complex expression.

"Amazing! It doesn't hurt you."

Hermione said with a complex expression, "I've never dared to learn this spell."

Andy waved his wand to extinguish the Fiendfyre curse and explained, "This is the best I can do at the moment, making the Fiendfyre curse harmless to me. But I am confident that I can make the Fiendfyre curse truly discern between friend and foe in a while."

When that happens, the Fiendfyre curse can be used as a regular attack. Especially in a group life-and-death battle, a single Fiendfyre curse can be extremely effective.

"Voldemort's terrifying power lies not only in his formidable magical abilities but also in the large number of Death Eaters and other magical races under his command."

Andy said with confidence, "When my mastery of the Fiendfyre curse improves, I will be able to use it to defend against thousands of enemies."

Hermione's face showed a mixture of emotions.

From childhood to adulthood, she had always been the top student at school, the 'child of other parents'.

But after getting to know Andy, Hermione truly realised the vast gap between a top student who is only good at studying and a genius.
