Hogwarts in Sharingan

After lunch, they parted ways. Harry and Ron said they were going to Hagrid's place for afternoon tea, while Ethan and Hermione went to the library together.

Ethan was absent-minded in the library. After completing his homework with Hermione, he took a copy of "Transfiguration Deciphered" and read it, but in fact, his attention was always on the restricted book section.

He planned to sneak into the forbidden book section tonight and take a look.

Ethan still remembers the request he gave himself before school started, which was to find a way to practice Occlumency. Now that there is an additional task of transfiguration, let's just go together and see what we can find tonight.

When he was in the non-restricted book area, he had already read information about Occlumency and Legilimency from some miscellaneous books, but most of them were introductions. The only useful thing was that both techniques involved brain manipulation and memory. manage.

This made him even more interested in Legilimency.

So after dinner, he kept pretending to read in the lounge until there was no one in the lounge, and it was already twelve o'clock in the morning.

Ethan quietly left Ravenclaw's tower. At this time, all the oil lamps in the castle were extinguished, and only the light of the moon outside shone in.

I used the fluorescent spell along the way and luckily didn't meet anyone. I saw that the library on the fifth floor was locked, but it was not difficult for Ethan.

"Araho Cave is open!"

The door lock was opened by the unlocking spell, but then someone walked by in the corridor around the corner. I only heard footsteps but saw no light. They might also be students walking at night.

Ethan didn't want to be seen, not even the students, so he locked the door after entering the library.

There was no moonlight coming in, and Ethan didn't dare to amplify the light of the fluorescent spell, so he had to use the dim light to slowly move to the forbidden book area.

There is a lock in front of the forbidden book area. This lock cannot be opened by the unlocking spell. Only Mrs. Pince's key can open it. If it is forcibly opened or cut, an alarm will probably sound.

However, Ethan already felt that the two keys hanging on Mrs. Pince's waist were suspicious, so during the day, he claimed that she was not paying attention and copied the two keys.

If he guessed correctly, one is used to open the door outside, and the other is used to unlock the restricted book area.

He tried it. The first one didn't open, but the second one did.

Overjoyed, he walked directly into the forbidden book area.

There are very few books here, there are only two shelves, and the books on them are not full.

In order not to waste time, Ethan immediately started checking the titles of the books one by one.

"The Encyclopedia of Dark Arts", "How to Use Curses", "Human Transfiguration", none of these books are normal.

Ethan searched for a long time before he found a book called "The Secret of the Brain". When he opened it, he saw a brain, which was beating continuously with Ethan's heart, which was very strange.

He endured the discomfort and continued to look down.

It first introduced the functions of various parts of the brain, but there was no record of memory. So the author dissected different parts of the brain and found that memory does not actually rely solely on a certain part for storage. Damage to the brain will damage memory, but there will not be one part. If damaged, all memories are lost.

Therefore, Occlumency requires the wizard to use mental power to protect the entire brain, and if part of it is missed, part of it will be sensed.

The most important thing here is that mental power is actually attached to memory, and if you want to mobilize mental power to protect the brain, you need to separate mental power from the brain.

The same principle applies to Legilimency. The caster uses mental power to break through the protective barrier of the caster's brain to read the memory.

And memory is even more peculiar. It is constantly flowing in the brain and its position is never fixed.

This also means that those with advanced Occlumency skills can confuse Legilimency masters by creating gaps and storing false memories in the gaps.

After that, there was more brain research. Even Ethan, who had an adult soul, couldn't bear it, so he simply put the book back.

Then it's about transfiguration.

It may be that Transfiguration is not qualified enough to be placed in the forbidden book area. Ethan only found the history of Transfiguration from it, or it was mixed in a book introducing records of ancient wizards' use of magic.

Moreover, the records about transfiguration are very strange. Unlike modern times, ancient wizards did not use transfiguration very much. They preferred to use black magic, and they thought transfiguration was not powerful enough.

[No, Dumbledore is an expert in transfiguration. He can conquer the world with his single-handed transfiguration. There is no way he is not powerful enough. 】

Ethan continued to read.

History changed in 500 AD. Ancient wizards began to abandon the original habit of using magic words to cast spells, and gradually studied the functions of spells. When paired with wands, the power of magic could be greatly enhanced.

The transformation technique has also changed.

Helga Hufflepuff proposed three major spell-casting principles of Transfiguration, namely the Transformation Spell, the Vanishing Spell and the Summoning Spell.

The power of transfiguration is small because ancient wizards could only convert spells and could not increase or decrease the mass of the original object, resulting in the limitations of the transformed object.

Now with the addition of disappearing spells and summoning spells, wizards have discovered that the summoned objects can be merged into the original objects, thus transforming into new objects that far exceed the volume and weight of the original objects.

Not only that, the emergence of vanishing spells and summoning spells has also greatly increased the types of spells, such as fire spells and cleaning spells. Flames are summoned by summoning spells, and cleared debris is removed by vanishing spells.

However, no one knew where the things summoned by the Summoning Spell came from, except Helga Hufflepuff.

After the establishment of Hogwarts, in order to protect the new Hogwarts, Helga took the initiative to protect the Forbidden Forest area and lived in the depths of the Forbidden Forest ever since.

After that, no dark wizard could pass through the Forbidden Forest, and no one ever saw Helga Hufflepuff herself again.

【Forbidden Forest!It seems there is a secret in the Forbidden Forest. 】

Ethan didn't linger any longer, put away the books, locked the door and left the library.

But when he went down to the fourth floor, a person suddenly appeared next to him. Oh, it must be a ghost.

“There are students who don’t sleep and wander around the castle at night!!!”

When Peeves saw Ethan sneaking around, he clapped his hands happily and yelled.

The people in Ethan were dumbfounded and quickly cast a confinement spell to freeze Peeves in the air.

But it was too late, he had already seen two bright lights coming from different directions.

Ethan decided to run up. He planned to sneak into the Room of Requirement and hide for a night, but the two bright lights chased him very quickly and blocked his way to the eighth floor.

Ethan, who was in a panic, could only hide in an abandoned classroom with a crack in it. There were many abandoned tables and chairs piled on one side, but there was also a big black thing on the other side.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, he quickly transformed a table into a screen and hid behind it before he could take a closer look.

When he heard the footsteps stopping nearby and the light of the oil lamp coming through, Ethan even breathed softly.

After a while, a familiar cold voice sounded: "Filch, did you find it over there?"

Filch said doubtfully: "The shadow I saw on the fourth floor ran down and disappeared after a while. Professor Snape, where are you?"

"No, if I catch him next time, I have to catch him and deal with the toads for a semester!"

After saying that, the two people left with their oil lamps.

Ethan waited a little longer and came out when he felt he would not come back again, and then carefully looked at the mirror in front of him.

This is a large mirror, almost reaching the ceiling, with a gorgeous golden frame, supported by two claw-shaped feet underneath.

And there is a line of words engraved on the top: Eristrae Heruait Ubika Fruait on Voges.

Ethan recognized it. This should be the legendary Mirror of Erised, which can see through people's desires.
