Chapter 260 Hermione and Her Original Intention

? In fact, Ai Wen was no less frightened than Malfoy. He didn't expect that he would cast this black magic, and he didn't expect it to be successful.

This black magic that attacks the soul is very deep and complex, and requires extremely strong magic power and deep magic theory as a basis.

At Ai Wen's level, he originally thought that he could not cast it.

Even if he succeeded unintentionally, it also shows that Ai Wen's strength has indeed improved a lot recently, but he doesn't feel happy at all.

He staggered back to the Gryffindor common room, ignoring whoever was talking to him.

He sat alone on the sofa in front of the fireplace for a long time, thinking about it all the time.

Thinking of the consequences of that black magic, Ivan realized the fear in his heart.

He kept asking himself, knowing that there would be such a result, why did he study these black magic in the first place?

Under the current situation, he does not know whether he should continue to study according to the current thinking?

Go on, and he might have great power at his disposal, but there's no guarantee he won't get lost in it and become an evil dark wizard like Voldemort.

The temptation of power is sometimes really difficult to choose.

Maybe he should change his mind...

In the middle of the night, except for Ai Wen, the Gryffindor common room was empty.

He stared blankly at the jumping fire in the fireplace, sitting alone in a daze.

Suddenly, a footstep sounded on the stairs, and someone came out of the bedroom.

Ai Wen turned around and saw Hermione in pink pajamas walking towards him.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" he asked in surprise.

"I'm worried about you, what happened?" Hermione sat on the sofa beside Ivan and said worriedly, "You don't look normal tonight, when I just said goodnight to you, you just nodded."

"I was thinking about things and didn't hear your voice." Ivan explained.

"What are you thinking?" Hermione stepped forward.

She stared at Ai Wen closely, and under the candlelight, her brown eyes shone with charming light.

Seeing Hermione's beautiful and wise eyes, Ai Wen was a little lost.

It took three full seconds for him to regain his senses.

Ai Wen was too familiar with Hermione. He knew that the other party must have noticed something. If he didn't explain it clearly, she would not let it go.

He hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Hermione everything.

Although the study of black magic is taboo, it should be done secretly, but Ivan does not want to hide anything from Hermione.

He trusted Hermione, not to mention he wanted to hear her opinion.

"I just met Malfoy on the stairs, and they were going to ambush me!" Ivan said hesitantly, "Don't worry, Hermione, I'm fine. I knocked them back with a magic, it was a... ...Dark magic, very deep, very complex, and very evil at the same time, and I didn't think I'd be able to cast it successfully!"

"Black magic?!" Hermione raised her head and looked at Ai Wen in astonishment.

"You know, I've been doing magic research recently. In fact, I've been researching black magic books from the Black family's collection." Ai Wen bit his head and said, he noticed that Hermione's face was getting more and more surprised. expression.

"God, you're studying black magic?!" Hermione dared not believe her, "I can't believe it, how could you do this? This is not right, the book says that black magic is very evil, and only dark wizards can do it. meeting......"

"In order to improve your strength, in the face of dark wizards and an uncertain future, it is always beneficial to know more about black magic." Ai Wen's voice became weaker and weaker, and he seemed to have no confidence. He looked at Hermione with pleading eyes. .

"You mean you don't learn these black magics to use them, or use that knowledge to do bad things, but to understand better?"

"That's right, that's it!" Even Ai Wen felt a little tangled for this reason.

Whether people believe it or not, he really thinks this way.

From the beginning to the end, Aiwen was not prepared to learn and master these black magics, and the purpose of his research was not to use them.

He doesn't want to be an evil dark wizard, perhaps because of preconceived ideas, Aiwen has always had a deep prejudice and great vigilance against black magic.

But as an important part of magic, black magic is indispensable. If you want to become a powerful wizard, you must study black magic. This is an indispensable part. Only by deeply understanding black magic can you better deal with it. This is also what the Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts class has always insisted on. teaching concept.

But it is undeniable that black magic is too powerful, and the power comes too easily.

With the in-depth research, it is inevitable to be subject to various temptations and tests.

In the face of these temptations, many people did not stick to their original aspirations and eventually got lost in them.

"If it's just research and understanding, I don't think it's a problem." Hermione said worriedly, "But it's black magic after all, you have to be careful!"

"I know, in fact, what happened this evening made me realize that the recent magic research has entered a wrong misunderstanding, which is very dangerous, and I am reflecting." Ivan explained, "But I don't know what to do, I have been in hesitate......"

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Hermione looked at Ai Wen carefully for a long time, suddenly stretched out her little hand to hold Ai Wen tightly, and said slowly, "I once said that no matter what happens, I will always I believe in you. Ai Wen, promise me, don't let me down, okay?"

"I promise you, I won't let you down." Ai Wen nodded and replied very seriously, "Thank you, Hermione, thank you for always believing in me!"

Seeing Hermione in front of him, Ai Wen finally made up his mind.

On the comfortable sofa in front of the fireplace in the Gryffindor common room, the two of them chatted for a long time until the second half of the night, when Hermione went back to the bedroom to sleep.

When he was alone again, Ai Wen took out his recent research notes and threw them into the fire, watching it burn to ashes.

Since the study of black magic is inevitable, it cannot be given up, but Ivan decided to change his research strategy. Based on these black magics, he plans to deeply analyze the principles, structures, and many theories involved in magic, and study methods to resist them, so as to improve his own strength.

In this way, the difficulty of magic research is several times higher than before.

But the gains were much smaller, and it couldn't make Ai Wen's strength improve quickly, but he didn't regret it. As promised, he didn't want to disappoint Hermione.

In Ivan's impression, Dumbledore also dabbled in black magic when he was young, and he may have faced the same choice.

He eventually paid a terrible price, his sister lost her life, and he repented and sobered up.

This is the regret of Dumbledore's life, since then he has been dedicated to fighting the dark magic.

Ai Wen reminded himself not to repeat the same mistakes, to cherish after losing like Dumbledore, or to become a puppet of power like Voldemort.

For Hermione's sake, for his own sake, he had to be vigilant all the time and couldn't relax. (To be continued.)
