The wizard in Hogwarts is unscientific

"Please sit down!"

Dumbledore was originally reading a book, but after seeing Andy and Hermione, he immediately put the book quietly in the desk drawer, took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

"What do you want to drink? A glass of milk at night will help you sleep well." Dumbledore asked with a smile after putting on his glasses.

Andy thought this smile was a bit scary.

"The Secret of Cutting-Edge Black Magic"

Andy saw the title of the book.

The old principal was studying black magic alone in the dark castle at night. This kind of thing is terrifying no matter how you think about it.

If you encounter something like this... you won't be silenced, right?

"Thank you!" Andy was not polite.

Dumbledore just tapped the table, and two glasses of hot milk appeared in front of Andy and Hermione.

"Thank you, Professor." Hermione said politely.

Dumbledore looked at Andy and the two and asked, "What do you two want from me?"

"Well...that's it."

Andy considered his words and asked: "Professor, there are two magics that I don't quite understand, so I want to ask you for advice."

"oh?"

Dumbledore seemed to be interested. He adjusted his glasses and asked, "What two magics are they?"

"The first magic is this."

Andy took out his wand and waved it gently in the air, and the fat cat Patronus immediately jumped out from the tip of the wand.

Dumbledore stared at the fat cat Patronus amusing himself in mid-air, his expression seemed a little surprised.

"It's still the Patronus Charm!"

Andy explained: "During the Christmas vacation, I went to consult Mrs. Bagshot and asked her about the story of Andros. However, the only records about Andros seemed to be the Invincible and the Giant Patronus. thing."

"Mrs. Bagshot said that she had seen the name 'Andros' in many ancient Greek ruins, but the records about him were basically the same."

Speaking of this, Andy suddenly paused, and then continued: "So I guess, Andros must often duel with others, and used the Patronus Charm in the duel."

Dumbledore listened quietly.

Andy continued: "The Patron Saint Spell is a fusion of happy emotions and magic. But if the Patron Saint becomes a magical creature, what is its food?"

"I guess it's happiness! Winning the duel will make Andros feel happy, and it will also make his patron saint feel happy."

"And this way of growing up looks very similar to Peeves in school - they are both a fusion of mind and magic."

Dumbledore looked at Andy, "Mr. Collins, you have shocked me again."

Andy was expressionless: Just pretend!

"This is the magic and greatness of magic."

Dumbledore said: "Magic can create life - in fact, many magical creatures in the wizarding world are created by wizards."

"Like the dementors who guard Azkaban!"

Andy nodded upon hearing this.

I had never thought about this before, but now that I think about it carefully, it seems that it is indeed the case.

Hermione raised her eyebrows and asked, "Professor, what about vampires and werewolves? Are they also created by wizards?"

Dumbledore's expression looked a little more serious, but his tone was still kind: "Miss Granger, although the mainstream society in the wizarding world has been rejecting vampires and werewolves, I don't want to call them magical creatures."

"They are...human beings just like us."

"Professor, I have no prejudice against them." Hermione said quickly, as if she was afraid that Dumbledore would hate her for this.

"Of course! We all know that."

Dumbledore continued: "In fact, the appearance of werewolves and vampires is due to magical accidents."

"I don't deny that most werewolves and vampires are bad people. You should be careful when you encounter them, but we cannot define the image of a group because of this."

"There are friendly people among werewolves and vampires."

"I know, Professor!" Hermione said.

Andy said nothing.

In fact, people like Dumbledore are the real minority, and the opinions of the minority cannot affect the majority.

But the image of the majority in a group is enough to influence a minority.

Andy touched his nose, "Professor...?"

I'm off topic!

Dumbledore did not continue this topic. He glanced at Andy's patronus and said: "Magic created a body for it, and your heart created a soul for it - Mr. Collins, you did create a life."

Andy quickly asked: "Professor Dumbledore, what about Animagus? I think Animagus is not a simple transformation magic, but uses magic to create an animal body."

Dumbledore nodded, "Your senses are still sharp... Mr. Collins."

"Two hearts, an animal's brain, and the animal's natural habits and instincts... You should have felt it, right?"

Andy nodded quickly.

In fact, after understanding the nature of the Animagus, Andy suddenly felt that the world of magic was full of fog, instead of being as clear as before.

Andy felt as if he had touched something, but he couldn't catch anything.

And this is the main reason why Andy can't wait to find Dumbledore.

Dumbledore looked at Andy and continued: "Mr. Collins, I have to say that you are a born wizard. I have never seen any wizard who can achieve such achievements at your age."

This, of course, refers to achievements in the realm of magic.

Andy was a little excited when he heard this.

But the reason why Andy was excited was not because he received Dumbledore's praise.

But...since Dumbledore said this, his next words are likely to solve Andy's doubts.

Sure enough, Dumbledore continued: "Actually, you should have felt it, right? Magic is the power of life. And life creates life, which is not surprising."

Andy nodded and said, "Indeed! I think magic comes from our lives. That's why wizards who have lost their bodies cannot use any magic."

"Even Voldemort needs to absorb life force to regain his strength."

Dumbledore suddenly asked: "So...Mr. Collins, what do you think life is?"

Andy was stunned when he heard this.

What is life?

This question seems very simple, because life is living. Only when the body survives can we truly live.

But... what about the soul?

Dumbledore did not continue to be pretentious. He pointed to the position of Andy's heart and said: "The combination of soul and body is called life, and life is everything you have."

"So we can use magic through this power, create life through this power - because magic is the miracle of life."
