Hogwarts: Storm Chaser

"Mr. Alvey, can you tell me why you have to slow down?"

After talking a lot of truth, Dumbledore looked at Ralph and asked.

"Okay, Professor. I felt at that time that the magic would fail if we didn't slow down a bit."

Ralph sat in his chair and spoke bluntly.

"feel?"

"Um."

"Children..."

Time flew by, and the two morning transformation classes came to an end.

Everyone left the classroom with one step and three turns, and after exiting the Transfiguration Classroom, the students excitedly started chatting and jumping up and down, without any trace of the reluctance they felt just now.

Ralph stayed, and William, Claude and Daniel also stayed to wait for him.

When little Barty saw that Ralph hadn't left, he curiously stayed in the classroom and let his roommate go first.

"Ralph, what's wrong?"

Dumbledore saw a group of people staying because of Ralph and asked him curiously.

At this time, little Barty looked at Ralph nervously.

He was afraid that Ralph would let Dumbledore ask him to step aside first.

But no, Ralph's attention was not on him at all, and he directly asked his question without even looking at him.

This made little Barty feel relieved, but at the same time he was a little unwilling and a little aggrieved. Perhaps it was because his efforts were not proportional to his rewards.

There is a feeling of "I treat you like this, but you ignore me".

But he had a good upbringing, but he didn't show it.

"Professor, I would like to ask, what exactly is magic?"

Ralph looked at Dumbledore expectantly.

"What is magic?" Dumbledore repeated the question, then shook his head with a smile and said, "Ralph, you asked me a good question!"

Upon hearing this answer, both Ralph and others looked at Dumbledore in astonishment.

"Do you really think that I am omniscient and omnipotent? If a principal's requirements are so high, then no one, including me, can be worthy of being the principal of Hogwarts."

Dumbledore laughed and cursed.

Everyone also apologized. They really thought that Principal Dumbledore was "all-knowing and all-powerful", at least to them.

"I can't give you a definite answer to the end. Like many wizards, I have studied magic in depth, but found nothing."

Dumbledore spread his hands and frankly stated his shortcomings.

"Hmm. It's not like we found nothing at all. We got a lot of seemingly useful information, but when combined, it makes no sense."

Dumbledore looked at them and continued.

"You may not understand it, so let me give you an example."

"Water, let's use water as an example. Now I'll give you a question, 'Let you prove what water is?'"

"First of all, water is drinkable and is the cornerstone of most life, including us."

"Secondly, water flows downwards and will change due to changes in temperature. It will freeze and evaporate into gas."

"..."

"Summarizing the above series of items, we come to the conclusion that water is water."

….

After speaking, Dumbledore crossed his fingers and placed them in front of his lower abdomen, looking at them.

Ralph frowned, looking thoughtful.

Others also frowned, but didn't know where to start.

"Professor, that is to say," Ralph looked at Dumbledore, paused, and continued: "Magic is magic. There is no need to delve into what it is."

[In other words, it is currently the best for reading and listening to books,@

It’s really not necessary for you.”

"However, if you have leisure in the future, I still recommend that you study it. What is important is not the result, but the process. It will greatly improve your magic."

"Of course, it's still too early. You don't even have solid basic knowledge."

"When you get to that time, you can contact me, or the four deans, and ask them for a letter about the research process of my friends and I. It will be helpful to you."

"Not only the people here, but all Hogwarts students, I will treat them equally, as long as they can save face and ask for things from me, an old man who has not kept up with the times."

Finally, Dumbledore laughed at himself a little.

Little Barty was a little surprised, he didn't expect such a gain.

If Ralph asks, they don't even know about this research, and they won't even think about it.

Listening to Mr. Principal's self-deprecation, everyone secretly shook their heads. Looking at Dumbledore's clothes, they did not think that the old man in front of them could not keep up with the times.

They even believed that Dumbledore was ahead of the times than any of them.

It's not just magic, there are many aspects.

"Ralph, do you have any more questions?"

Dumbledore looked at Ralph and asked softly.

"Well, Professor. I want to know if magic is physical?" Ralph said.

"Matter? What an interesting concept."

Dumbledore said softly.

"How did you come up with this idea?"

He raised his half-moon glasses, looked at Ralph, and asked curiously.

"Professor, didn't you use magic to hold up the podium in class? I didn't feel the magic fluctuations related to the [Levitation Spell]."

"So, I thought about what magic is like."

"If it's not material, how do you use magic to hold up an object?"

Ralph said.

"Matter? Matter? Your thinking is interesting."

Dumbledore said, he raised his hand without the wand, and the podium suddenly levitated.

To be sure, it's not the Elder Wand's fault.

Putting down the podium, Dumbledore looked at them, and finally focused on Ralph.

"Come on, Ralph, don't use magic, just use your magic and try to lift it up so you know whether it's physical or not."

Ralph pointed at the bottle cap in Dumbledore's hand, and a clear beam of magic shot out from the tip of the stick and wrapped around the bottle cap.

But it failed, and Ralph's magic power passed through the bottle cap.

Everyone looked at Ralph. He did not have a regretful expression, but instead looked excited.

"Yes, Professor, magic is indeed material. When it passed through the bottle cap, I clearly felt the resistance of the bottle cap against it."

"Very good. Do you want to try it?"

Dumbledore looked at the excited Ralph, said with a smile, and then looked at the remaining people.

Several people nodded hurriedly, it was getting late, finish the test quickly, and go have lunch!

However, the situation is not ideal.

Among these people, only Barty Jr. and William could slightly perceive their own magic power, and reluctantly let the magic power be released through the wand.

It is also a pity that they have completely lost the ability to sense the magic power without the wand.
