Chapter 20 [Magic]
Hermione was immediately excited after hearing this and showed her lion side:
"Okay! I will never let my grades fall behind!"
"But we have to go together!" Hermione then added: "And I will arrange the time. )"
"You need company when buying snacks?"
"Is it... not possible?"
"Of course, just pay more. Three is not enough. Now it's a box of chocolate frogs!"
Rock tested Hermione's bottom line. He remembered that people often gave each other chocolate frogs at Christmas.
Well, Hermione should be able to afford a box.
This time he is going to show off!
Hermione breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Rock said, and then lowered her head and said:
"Then let's set it on September 19th. In the middle of this month, I will call you and we will go to Honeydukes together."
"No problem, that's it. Let's start learning quickly." Rock nodded, and then said that he would start teaching.
Hermione's face was a little red, and she tried to lower her head and pretend to look at the flying broom.
Because September 19th was her birthday, she didn't agree to go out for the sake of studying.
This was thanks to the flash of inspiration just now.
Rock, you don't want to miss the chocolate frog.
...
"It's not difficult to control the broom. The principle of the broom is to sense the wizard's own magic." Rock explained the key points to Hermione.
"You subconsciously regard the broom as a living thing, so it is difficult to control. In fact, it is just an alchemical product, just like a Muggle TV. You can control it as long as you find the remote control."
"As long as you try to control the convergence of magic and let the broom sense the signal, it is not difficult to master the broom..."
Rock's teaching made Hermione quickly grasp the key points, and then she started practicing on the side.
While teaching Hermione, Rock also sorted out his knowledge and gradually fell into deep thought.
Because he seemed to suddenly find that there was a very interesting place in the wizarding world, and the concept of "releasing magic" was everywhere.
If you want the broom to move, give it a signal.
If you want to cast "Expelliarmus", send out a wave of light.
If you want to cast "Killing Curse", it is also a wave of light.
Even "Fainting", "Petrification" and even the basic Levitation Curse are all waves of light.
Is the magic in the Hogwarts world just the application of "waves"?
Or is it because these spells have obvious targets and need to be locked?
Obviously not, "Repair" also needs to choose the target to be repaired, and there is no directional light wave at all.
Under the spell of Restoration, the object will return to its original position as if time has gone back.
When Restoration was cast for the first time, the silky feeling shocked Rock.
And there are many other spells that do not emit obvious directional light waves, such as the Patronus Charm and the Summoning Charm.
The common point of these two spells is obviously that they were created a long time ago.
Could it be that learning magic really depends on archaeology?
Rock thought of the great power of ancient magic, and then shook his head.
Whether the level of magic is profound or not is never determined by the destructive power of magic.
Moreover, the Spell is not completely incapable of emitting waves. He will emit a faint light at the tip of the wand, but there is no directional light wave like "Disarm" that hits the target.
"Ask your dean tomorrow, he must know a lot of knowledge."
Rock's dean is Filius Flitwick, the dean of Ravenclaw and also the teacher of the spell class.
There will be a spell class tomorrow morning, and I will ask him after class.
...
The spell class the next morning.
"Okay, I know everyone is looking forward to learning some spells in the spell class." Flitwick said with a smile: "But before that, please open the "Standard Spells: Elementary", we need to learn the principles of magic..."
Professor Flitwick has a good personality and is very interesting. Although he is not tall, his strength is amazing. It is said that he won the duel championship when he was young.
Rock also opened the book. Although he already knew the spells above, listening to others explain the basic knowledge again can also help him sort out the logic.
The knowledge in the Hogwarts world is different from that of ordinary blue-bar wizards. The wizards in this world pay more attention to emotions and will.
In the eyes of wizards, people with stronger will can use stronger magic.
And the wand and spells are to cooperate with the will to call magic power, and some regions will also use gestures to help.
The spells of various countries are also different, with obviously different pronunciation logic.
As for the wand, there are many countries that use it.
Because the wand can really help many wizards lower the threshold of casting spells, like the training wheels of bicycles.
However, Rock can not rely on the wand because of the active magic power. Not only that, he can even call less emotions to cast the same magic as others because of the positive response of magic.
He uses the wand now, purely to get that little spellcasting bonus.
When he obtains the manufacturing process of wands in other worlds in the future, Rock must make a wand that is purely used to increase strength.
He wanted to turn bicycle training wheels into rocket boosters.
After explaining the principles of the first spell class, students began to be taught the first spell - the levitation spell.
A hundred years ago, this spell was taught in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
Now it has become the first spell for young wizards.
Flitwick waved his wand, and a feather appeared in front of each young wizard.
"Next, you can try to cast a spell on the feather according to the tone I just taught." Flitwick smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's normal to fail in the first attempt, and you don't need to be impatient."
"Be firm in your will!"
"Wingardium Leviosa!" Hermione successfully cast the levitation spell easily.
She was the first student to cast the levitation spell.
"Very good! Miss Granger! You are worthy of being a freshman in Ravenclaw!" Flitwick immediately smiled, "Five points for Ravenclaw!"
Flitwick was very happy. Professor Sprout told him yesterday that Ravenclaw had recruited two very outstanding young wizards.
He started looking forward to this spell class yesterday.
Flitwick's eyes began to secretly look at Rock, looking forward to whether Rock could successfully cast magic.
However, Flitwick thought that even if he could perform it successfully, he might not be as skilled as Miss Granger.
Rock was also thinking that he would definitely ask some questions beyond the syllabus after class, so he must show his strength well, and the teachers would answer those "overly ambitious" questions.
So he gave up the wand and the spell.
The feather floated up just by silent and wandless casting.
Because there was no movement, and even no sound, some young wizards who were focused on the feathers in front of them did not notice what Rock did.
But Flitwick, who had been staring at Rock, immediately widened his eyes and trembled with excitement.
He lifted his foot happily, but accidentally fell from the pile of books under his feet, but Flitwick did not care at all. Instead, he immediately climbed up and shouted at the top of his voice:
"Oh my God! Mr. Anderson! What a beautiful wandless casting! What an excellent silent casting!"
"Ravenclaw plus 20 points!"
