From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

As we all know, magic is an adjective.

For Muggles on the scientific side, magic is a miracle that is unimaginable, so Muggles in the country use "magic" to mean extremely amazing and incredible.

However, for wizards in the magical world, magic is just something they are accustomed to. On the contrary, it is the science of the Muggle world that makes them amazed. Few people can imagine that the Muggle world, a world without magic, can be like this. Convenient and so colorful!

Although most wizards maintain a backward mentality similar to a closed country due to the influence of the International Federation of Wizards Secrecy, and maintain a condescending or even contemptuous mentality towards Muggles, the more they understand the Muggle world, Wizards, on the contrary, are more able to appreciate the wonders of scientific knowledge in the Muggle world.

This is the case with Nicolas Flamel, the most famous and knowledgeable alchemist in history for centuries. After learning about Muggle scientific knowledge, he was often amazed and spent a long time studying it. and analysis, and even integrated scientific knowledge into his own alchemical works.

In addition, many genuine Muggle studies experts in the magical world were very impressed after gaining a certain understanding of science, and wrote various phenomena into the Muggle studies textbooks, but they were always ignored by the young wizards. That’s all.

It can be said that both magic and science are miracles born in this world. One is the power of idealism and the other is the power of materialism. However, the two may not have nothing in common with each other.

For example, this eternal space, although on the surface it is a magical place belonging to the eternal god, but the life, death, and cycle of many universes seen in it can also be seen in the shadow of science.

"So, Xiaowen, don't look at magic with a limited perspective." Ancient Yi said. "Everything in the universe is interconnected, all existence is entangled with each other, and nothing exists independently."

"But when I wanted to use scientific knowledge to learn magic in today's world, I encountered setbacks." Xiwen told Master Gu Yi about the first time he learned the art of transformation. "Dumbledore told me that magic is the power of belief, the power of learning to choose to let go."

Gu Yi stroked his white beard and revealed an enigmatic smile.

"Xiaowen, what do you think the essence of magic is?" he asked.

Xiwen was stunned for a moment, vaguely feeling that this issue seemed to have been discussed with Dumbledore.

Dumbledore once told him, 'The real magical power of magic lies not in life, nor in combat. But its most important and basic characteristic - to transform into all things! ’

In a daze, Xiwen felt as if he had really had the illusion of transforming into all things. It was an illusion that occurred when the magic power was enhanced to a certain extent.

Transform into all things, that is, use magic to achieve a state of omnipotence!

"The essence of magic...is to transform into all things?" He looked at his teacher and asked softly.

"Oh? Is this also the knowledge you have learned in this world?" Gu Yi asked curiously.

"That's not true. Professor Dumbledore told me to transform into all things." Sivan shook his head.

Ancient One glanced at him with great interest, nodded and said, "The Professor Dumbledore of your world seems to be really great and can have a huge influence on you."

"In my opinion, there is some truth in transforming into all things, but what he wants to tell you should not be the essence of magic, but just a characteristic of magic. When the strength reaches a certain level, it will indeed You can use magic to build the world as you like; but the same is true for science. When science and technology are perfected to a certain extent, you can naturally use science to build the world as you like."

Xiwen frowned and asked, "So what is the essence of magic?"

"Xiao Wen, let me ask you, what do you think is magic?" Gu Yi asked with a smile.

"In my opinion, magic is a unique power that exists in the world and can help us do many things that are difficult to achieve." Xiwen thought for a moment and replied. "Whether it is in Kama Taj or in today's world, magic is a force that is sustained by magic."

"Is this how you understand it?" Gu Yi slowly took two steps forward, looked into Xiwen's eyes at close range, and asked. "Do you think that using a magic wand in your hand to cast a spell, or using a hanging ring to open a dimensional door, is considered the use of magic?"

"I think it's more than that." Xiwen said, shaking his head. "There are many aspects of magic, such as potions and herbal medicine, all of which require magic power to maintain. The same is true in Kama Taj. It is difficult for us to complete a magic without magic power or mana."

"So that's it. Do you think magic must be maintained by magic power?" Gu Yi asked with a chuckle.

Xiwen nodded.

"Then let me ask you, is a magic book that does not contain any magic or magic power considered magic or science? Or is it the Muggle studies and history of magic you studied at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which you mentioned? Since they themselves do not contain any magic power, are they considered magic or science?"

"This..." Xiwen froze on the spot, looking at Gu Yi with a slightly confused look on his face.

"These things should be considered magic. After all, the records are all about magic. For example, the history of magic and Muggle studies cannot appear in the Muggle world. They are unique to the magic world, so they should be counted. Within the realm of magic.”

"So what is the magical world and what is the Muggle world?" Ancient One asked next.

"The area where wizards live is called the magical world, and the area without traces of magic is called the Muggle world." Xiwen answered calmly this time.

"So there won't be any Muggle things in the magical world? Will there be no wizards like you talk about being born in the Muggle world?"

"The two cannot be generalized. The dividing line should be roughly within a certain range..."

"So how do you draw this range?"

"..."

Xiwen was confused by Master Gu Yi's series of questions. He now seriously suspected that his teacher was quarreling with him, but out of respect, he could not retaliate.

In addition, in Xiwen's impression, the former Supreme Mage shouldn't be so boring, and he should go all the way to drag himself to the eternal territory to argue...

So Xiwen is very confused now. Is the teacher giving him a lesson? If this is really the case, then what exactly does he want to say with this?
