From Beauxbatons to Hogwarts

The information revealed by Voldemort is shocking, which leads Calvin to new speculations about the origin of magic.

"It's not that I'm inferior to Salazar Slytherin," Calvin thought to himself, "it's just that I didn't do those bloody and cruel experiments."

"Although he brutally dissected a large number of magical creatures, including wizards, his exploration of magic went astray."

"But fortunately, with his experiments, I don't have to repeat these bloody things."

“I stand on the shoulders of those who came before me.”

Calvin stood in front of the window, feeling the biting cold wind outside the castle, and began to rethink the origin of magic.

Magic is closely related to the soul. Most wizards have made no progress at this point in their research. Maybe they have degenerated into dark wizards, or maybe they feel fear and dare not go deeper.

Calvin was lucky to have two powerful and experienced wizards escorting him on his research journey.Even so, he also stopped making progress in the study of emotions.

Is the origin of magic really emotions?Calvin asked himself.It is true that emotions have a great influence on magic, and mobilizing corresponding emotions can greatly increase the success rate and power of spells.But emotions don't seem to directly produce magic, or pure magic.

So, where exactly is the starting point?

Calvin decided to seek help from others.

Calvin left the office and came to Flitwick's office on the eighth floor of the castle.

"Come in." Flitwick's high-pitched voice came from the door.

"Oh, Calvin, welcome." The short head of Ravenclaw warmly welcomed Calvin's arrival.

"So, why did you come to see me?"

"That's right," Calvin said sincerely, "I heard that you once won a duel competition when you were young, so I have some magical questions for you."

"That's all old history," Flitwick's beard twitched. It was obvious that he was happy that someone knew about his glorious past. "If you have any questions, just ask."

"Professor Flitwick, when you cast magic, how do you increase the success rate of your spells?"

Flitwick gave Calvin a strange look, "I thought that only young wizards in school would ask such basic questions... An outstanding wizard like you shouldn't be worried about failed spells."

Calvin smiled, "Sometimes the most basic questions are the most difficult. Of course I won't be troubled by this. Well, I am writing a textbook that young wizards need when they first learn magic. I hope that experienced wizards like you will Offer a little help.”

Flitwick began to rethink this most basic question, and finally answered, "Aside from basic practice, the most important thing is... er, feeling? Or confidence?

Sorry Calvin, it's a bit unclear without specifying what the spell is. "

Calvin nodded, and discussed with Flitwick the techniques for releasing different spells.

Soon, Calvin almost figured out Flitwick's understanding of magic, which can be said to have surpassed 90.00% of wizards.

Then Calvin came to Bathida's dark basement, where the white-haired vampire was holding a bottle of Coke in his hand.

Calvin smelled that the coke was obviously mixed with other liquids, and couldn't help but sigh, "What a guy, he actually mixed dragon blood into the coke and drank it."

"Have there been any results from the research on silver mirrors?" Bascida asked.

"There is no real progress." Calvin planned to conceal the conversation with Voldemort.

"Okay, then why did you come to me?" Bascida gave Calvin a bottle of Coke. Calvin opened it and sniffed it to make sure it was not mixed with dragon's blood, and then he drank it with confidence.

"I want to ask you about your knowledge of magic." Calvin asked.

"It is very impolite to ask a powerful wizard about his knowledge of magic." Bascida resisted the question. "This means that the magic path chosen by a wizard is his biggest secret."

Calvin was a little speechless. What era is this? He had to explain patiently: "Bathcida, times have changed. Now is the era of exchanges and cooperation. Being self-conscious will only make people continue to fall behind. What's more, you are worried about me. Can’t you make a move?”

Bascida's white face showed a smile of success, and she said slowly, "I tell you, it's not impossible, but this summer, you have to do me a favor."

"Help?" Calvin frowned. He didn't like the feeling of being threatened. If it weren't for an acquaintance of his, he would have just walked away.

"It's not a big deal, just a trip to the pyramids." Bascida said easily.

Calvin thought for a while and agreed to her request.

Next, Bascida told Calvin all about her understanding of magic, which surprised Calvin.

But it has to be said that Bascida has an alternative and profound understanding of magic. Her understanding of magic and magic texts deeply inspired Calvin, which stems from the long years she has experienced.

Finally, Calvin came to the principal's office. He hoped that the old man's wisdom could bring him more inspiration.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, how is the most powerful magic you know released?"

"Calvin, when did you start pursuing the power of magic? This is not a good sign." Dumbledore looked at him with some confusion.

"Just some questions." Calvin said vaguely.

Seeing that Calvin didn't want to explain, Dumbledore stopped asking. After thinking about it, he said, "I think the most powerful magic is undoubtedly love. It can even defeat Avada's Kedavra Curse."

Calvin lowered his eyelids and asked in a low voice: "You're talking about Lily, right?"

Dumbledore nodded, "Lily is willing to die and use her life to protect Harry's safety. This magic will protect Harry until he reaches adulthood. I really can't think of a magic more powerful than this."

"Only maternal love?"

"Of course not, Calvin." Dumbledore smiled, "The power of magic depends on how much you are willing to pay for love."

"So Voldemort failed because he didn't have the power of love?" Calvin asked.

"It can be said that Voldemort does not understand love, and he does not have the courage to let go of everything. Even if he is still alive, his failure is only a matter of time."

Calvin nodded and continued to communicate with Dumbledore until the sun set, and he already had some ideas of his own.

Just as he was about to leave, Dumbledore suddenly said: "By the way, you will teach the Defense Against the Dark Arts class next Monday and Wednesday."

Calvin's face became extremely ugly: "So quickly, didn't you say that I was the last one?"

"Snape has already substituted for you twice," Dumbledore said helplessly. "He asked me yesterday why I didn't arrange a substitute lesson for you."

"Unless you can find a suitable teacher to teach tomorrow."
