The wizard in Hogwarts is unscientific

Chapter 115 Why didn’t Harry Potter become the Obscurus?

In the next week, Andy calmed down and carefully reviewed the first-grade knowledge.

The Hogwarts exam is divided into two parts, a written exam and a practical exam.

Andy doesn't need to worry about practical operations, and the theoretical knowledge is rich enough. The only thing Andy is currently lacking is those knowledge points that are not very important but require rote memorization.

Facts have proved that hard work is still useful.

The exams for the Charms and Transfiguration classes went very smoothly. The written test papers were quite simple, and the actual operations were even more difficult for Andy.

The practical part of the Charms exam involves making a pineapple tap dance across a table, and the practical part of the Transfiguration exam involves turning a small log into a button.

This is all child's play for Andy.

During the subsequent Potions exam, Snape persisted in walking around behind Andy, trying to influence Andy's mentality. However, Andy was not affected at all and completed the potion production very well, much to Snape's disappointment.

There is only a written test for the History of Magic exam, and you can pass it by memorizing it by rote. The flying class and astronomy class exams are basically just a formality. As long as they are not too outrageous, everyone can get an O grade.

The only thing that made Andy feel a little bald was the exam in the herbal medicine class.

The herbal medicine class and the potion class can be regarded as two complementary courses, but Andy has always pursued power and has never thought about growing herbal medicine in the future, so he naturally looks down upon this course.

If Andy is more hands-on than theoretical knowledge in other courses, then in the herbal medicine class, theoretical knowledge is more important than practical operation.

Unfortunately, the practical operations of this course were only available in class, and even if Andy wanted to review, he would not have the chance.

Seeing Professor Sprout's dissatisfied look, Andy could only look away and try to reduce his presence as much as possible.

Fortunately, overall, Andy feels that his test scores this time are quite good. Except for Hermione, there should be no one in the first grade who can score better than him.

…

There is no holiday immediately after the exam. The little wizards will continue to stay at Hogwarts until the school announces the exam results.

So in the next few days, the entire Hogwarts seemed to be in panic.

The test report cards have to be taken home to show to their parents. Even the most naughty students can only pray to Merlin to bless the professor's blindness at this time and let them see their wrong answers as correct answers.

The Weasley twins also took the opportunity to come up with an amulet that was said to be able to improve test scores. The purchase was extremely popular and they made a lot of money.

I have to say, these two are really talented people.

George and Fred's academic performance can only be considered above average, but they are very talented in making magic items.

It's a pity that their mother, Molly Weasley, always believed that this kind of thing was unprofessional, and often punished the two of them for it.

Andy felt sad just thinking about it.

Molly Weasley is also a child of a pure-blood family, but in her opinion, working in the Ministry of Magic after graduation is the right path, and studying the production of magic items has become an unprofessional job.

This is just like the feudal society in ancient China. Only the imperial examination was the right way, and the development of science and technology has become a strange skill. Not only is it not taken seriously, but it is still at the middle and lower levels of the social contempt chain.

It's no wonder that most young wizards don't learn magic much. After all, except for Aurors, many jobs in the Ministry of Magic have nothing to do with 'magic'.

They only need to master the common magic in life, which is enough to cope with future life.

In the magical world of peaceful times, gold galleons are more effective than magic.

Therefore, Andy has always believed that although the establishment of the Ministry of Magic established order in the magical world, it hindered the development of magic.

Which one is better or worse is just a matter of opinion.

Fortunately, Andy has no idea of ​​​​reforming the magic world. Being the Dark Lord is not that easy. Not to mention the thankless task, it does not do him any good.

…

"If nothing else happens, this semester's Academy Cup should belong to us Ravenclaw!"

On the way to the library, Hermione kept mumbling, "Although we lost in the Quidditch match, our house score is the highest, and our test scores should be better than the other three houses."

"Fortunately, Gryffindor won the Quidditch Cup this year. Their house score is already low. Even with the Quidditch score added, they are still at the bottom among the four major houses."

The little witch has a strong sense of collective honor. Apart from her own test scores, the only thing she cares about now is the Academy Cup.

"No wonder Professor Snape doesn't like me lately."

Andy suddenly realized, "If Slytherin wins the House Cup this semester, they will win the seventh consecutive championship. In the wizarding world, seven is a magic number."

Hermione glanced at Andy. She had also noticed recently that there was something wrong with the way Snape looked at Andy.

"Why is he targeting you?"

The little witch said curiously: "I mean, winning the Academy Cup is a victory for our entire Ravenclaw."

"Maybe I have offended him before! Or maybe I am the most representative?" Andy scratched his head.

Hermione glanced at Andy again, "I'm not surprised at all."

Andy: "..."

Soon, the library arrived.

A few days before the exam, there was no one absent from the library.

After the exam, only Andy and Hermione still insisted on coming to the library to read.

Mrs. Pince noticed Andy and Hermione immediately.

Andy sighed, unable to chat now.

The little witch was also very well-behaved. She picked the book without saying a word, found her seat without saying a word, and read the book without saying a word.

Even the sound of footsteps was kept to a minimum.

If there is anyone in Hogwarts who dares not to respect Dumbledore, then apart from Mrs. Pomfrey in the school doctor's office, the only one left is the librarian - Mrs. Pince.

An existence that looks like a sweeping monk.

Even Andy didn't dare to provoke them.

Andy was still reading books about the Patronus Charm. Even though Andy was still clueless about upgrading magic, Andy always stuck to his original judgment.

The potential of this magic doesn't stop there.

It's just that the contents in these books are all similar, and they are basically of no help to Andy.

Andy glanced through it quickly and then closed the book in disappointment.

What a waste!

Andy found another book that recorded the Obscurus, and looked through it carefully.

The records about Obscurus in the book are not much different from those books I have read before. It was nothing more than that the little wizard who had been abused had developed negative emotions and had some unknown change with his magic power.

Andy scratched his head in distress...

Speaking of abuse... wasn't the abuse Harry suffered at his uncle's house enough?

Harry may not hate his aunt and uncle, but he is not without other negative emotions either.
