Chapter 4174 4176 [Wizards Are Gods]

After leaving the Harry Labad School of Magic, Xiang Nan and his family finally returned to London, England.

He did not go to the magic school in Japan again, because most of the magic in Japan was inherited from the Middle Earth, and a small part came from the Ilvermorny School of Magic in the United States, and there was not much of their own stuff.

Xiang Nan was too lazy to waste time.

Moreover, August was already eleven years old, and it was time for him to report to Hogwarts.

In fact, as soon as Xiang Nan and his family returned to London, August had already received a notice of admission in September.

Although he was born in Penglai, his name was already on the admission list of Hogwarts from the moment he was born.

August then bought his first wand at Ollivander's Wand Shop, which was twelve inches long, made of apple tree material and unicorn tail hair.

After he entered Hogwarts, he was assigned to Ravenclaw College like Xiang Nan.

Because he had a strong curiosity about magic under Xiang Nan's teaching since he was a child, which was in line with the potential of Ravenclaw College.

After sending his son to school, Xiang Nan spent the next few years sorting out and reviewing what he had learned.

In the past ten years, he has learned magic from ten magic schools in Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Africa and other regions.

It can be said that his accumulated knowledge has exceeded any wizard in the world. Even top masters like Dumbledore and Grindelwald can hardly match him.

However, what he has learned is too cumbersome and complicated, and it is time to sort it out.

Otherwise, as Confucius said, learning without thinking is confused, thinking without learning is dangerous.

...

In the next few years, Xiang Nan sorted out and summarized what he had learned.

By sorting out and summarizing what he had learned, Xiang Nan's understanding of magic became deeper and deeper, and his control over magic became stronger and stronger.

He could understand a sentence more and more, that is, "Wizards are gods."

Because no matter Europe, America, Asia, Africa and other places, there are many silent spells.

This kind of spell is not to recite the spell in your heart, but you really don't need to say the spell. As long as you have a thought in your heart, you can release the spell.

The older the magic, the more such silent spells there are.

This shows that in the distant ancient times, there was a group of ancestral wizards who had mastered magic before the invention of writing and language.

Therefore, the spells and magic words they passed down were more like they were created for inheritance and to teach the younger generations.

And many civilizations in the world have recorded such stories.

For example, before Odin created the ancient runes, he was already the king of gods; before Cangjie created characters, there were already great wizards in the Middle Earth, such as Huangdi, Yandi, Chiyou, Gonggong, Zhurong, etc.; before Thoth, the ancient Egyptian god of wisdom, invented characters, Egypt already had nine pillar gods...

Xiang Nan reasonably speculated that the so-called gods, such as Odin, Thor, Loki, Cangjie, Yandi, Huangdi, Gonggong, Chiyou, Thoth, Amon, etc., were all wizards, with certain extraordinary abilities, and did things that ordinary people could not imagine and do, so they were respected or feared by people.

But as time goes by, deeds become stories, stories become legends, legends become myths, and finally no one can see clearly what happened back then.

…

The existence of the Speechless Spell proves that wizards can release magic with their will and thoughts alone.

As long as his will is strong enough and his thoughts are clear enough, he can do it.

This shows that wizards are gods, able to "say what comes out" and "change the world with thoughts".

And this is consistent with everything Xiang Nan knows, that is, "In the magical world of Harry Potter, magic is quite idealistic."

For example, to cast the Patronus Charm, you must think of happy things; to cast the three unforgivable spells, you must have evil thoughts; to cast Apparition, you must want to get there wholeheartedly...

And the highest realm of idealism is "I am God!", "The universe is my heart, my heart is the universe", "Everything is in me", "I think, therefore I am".

Therefore, the more determined and confident the wizard is, the stronger the magic power and the highest achievement.

It seems that when Merope Gaunt was bullied by his family, he couldn't even cast a simple magic. But after her father and brother were captured, her magic power recovered quickly, and she could even brew high-level potions such as aphrodisiacs. After she was abandoned by Tom Riddle, she lost her magic power again and couldn't even make a living.

Her personal experience fully illustrates this point.

...

However, Xiang Nan also knows that human power is sometimes limited.

Wizards can only approach God, but they are not God after all.

Wizards cannot achieve immortality, even if they use the Philosopher's Stone, they can only prolong their lifespan. And the cost is very high.

Wizards cannot create life. Even if they use Transfiguration to turn stones into beetles, teapots into turtles, and stone statues into human forms, they are not real life, but just puppets without souls.

Wizards cannot control their fate. Although wizards can make predictions and even glimpse a little into the future, wizards cannot control their fate.

Just like Voldemort, after knowing the prophecy, he not only did not change his own fate, but helped the prophecy come true.

Xiang Nan knew all this, so he didn't act like Voldemort, arrogantly thinking that he was really a god and could control everyone in his palm.

He just tried his best to apply what he learned to help others.

For example, after he came back, he helped Lupin, who had transformed into a werewolf, release the "Human Form Curse" on a full moon night, helping him restore his original form.

In fact, Xiang Nan did not know the specific spells of the human form spell, nor did he know how to wave the wand. But he was determined to help Lupin turn back to human form, and he really did it.

Under the influence of his powerful magic, Lupin really regained his human form. And on the full moon night afterwards, he did not turn into a werewolf again.

This made Lupin very happy, and even moved him to tears.

As a werewolf, he has been discriminated against since he was a child. After entering Hogwarts, although he had friends such as James, Xiang Nan, Lily, Pettigrew, and Sirius Black, he still felt a little inferior in his heart.

Even later, he took over the Dragon Power Store and became a very successful businessman and inventor. He was no longer as embarrassed as in the original book, but he still felt inferior in his heart and was afraid that people would discover the secret of being a werewolf.

Now, he finally turned back into a human, no longer turning into a wolf every full moon night, no longer having to worry about biting others, no longer having to worry about being discriminated against...

From then on, he could live freely, even get married and have children, and enjoy the family life... Xiang Nan simply gave him a second life.

This made Lupin very happy and grateful.

"Sever, thank you so much, it's you who gave me a new life." Lupin said gratefully.

"We are all friends, you are welcome." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.
