A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Hermione seemed to remember something, "Professor, did you use this rune in your open class last year?"

"No, the real ancient magic was demonstrated in the open class, but this rune was the core." Felix said.

He looked at the time and said gently: "Today is almost over. As for how to discover the power of a single Rune, I will arrange this part for tomorrow. You can try it yourself when you go back. There is no danger, but it is possible It will cause you some trouble."

"troubled?"

Felix twitched the corners of his mouth: "If I remember correctly, the effect of a rune I taught you is very interesting. I wonder if you can find it?"

Hermione felt some resentment in her heart, and the professor's bad taste appeared again...

At this point, Hermione almost understood the logic of the entire practical ancient Rune system - if the analogy, she thought of the radio that she had dismantled herself.

Rune is the basis of everything, the status is equivalent to the electronic parts in the radio;

But whether it is a single rune or an electronic part, they are relatively independent and can show their own characteristics, such as the heating of the resistor, the light of the small light bulb, and the rune that the professor showed.

These characteristics are not inherently good or bad, but after adding people's subjective judgments, there is a difference: the luminous characteristics are obviously more useful than the heating characteristics...

The rune circuit corresponds to the circuit in the radio. At this time, the rune has been combined to form a circuit with specific magical functions, such as the burst rune circuit demonstrated by the professor a long time ago.

She also remembered that Professor Hepp's description of it was "very unstable", which showed that a single rune circuit was difficult to be used stably.

Only when multiple Rune circuits cooperate with each other can a fully functional Rune creation be created, just like her beaded bag.

As for ancient magic, she didn't have much information, so she thought it was the same relationship.

Hermione felt that it was easy to understand by analogy. She told the professor what she thought and looked at him expectantly, "What do you think?"

Felix cast an approving look, "It sums it up quite vividly, Miss Granger. It's totally understandable to you now."

The little witch nodded. She has come into contact with too much new knowledge today, and she needs to sort it out again when she goes back.

...

By the time Hermione left, Felix was sitting on the sofa, and tonight's harvest made him think more deeply about the similarities and differences between ancient magic and simplified magic.

His previous thought was that ancient magic was powerful, but difficult to control; as for simplified magic, its power was not outstanding, but it was completely sufficient. Its biggest advantage was that it was easy to learn, and the probability of losing control was lower.

But in fact, it is almost inevitable that simplified magic replaces ancient magic——

Simplified magic can basically be regarded as a collection of spell + casting action + magic mobilization.

'Spell' represents the power of the mind, which can be omitted after being proficient, that is, silent casting;

The latter two - 'casting action' and 'magic mobilization' can be confused in most cases.

This is because under the simplified magic system, the casting action and the magic power mobilization are bound one by one, and a casting action corresponds to a method of magic power mobilization, which is the essence of the entire simplified magic system.

The benefits of this approach are staggering:

Wizards don't have to spend a lot of time learning how to mobilize and harness their magic, and this knowledge is naturally integrated into the Hogwarts teaching system.

In theory, as long as you learn the regular spellcasting moves, you are eligible to master most spells in the same system.

The reason why there are not all spells is that some unpopular spell-casting actions have been deleted from the existing Hogwarts textbooks, which means that little wizards cannot master the magic mobilization methods behind these spell-casting actions.

However, if the professor wants to teach extra, he can spend more time on the new spell casting action while explaining the spell. At most, the little wizard thinks this spell is a bit difficult and not very handy.

It is precisely because the casting action and the mobilization of magic power are so closely integrated that many young wizards only know the former and have no concept of the latter, but this does not affect their use of magic at all.

An extreme example is:

Some talented wizards can master the corresponding magic by relying on the other party's spells and spellcasting actions just by watching someone else's spellcasting once.

What's more convenient is that when you are familiar with the spell, the casting action can also be omitted, and everything seems to return to the magic mobilization itself.

It's just that most wizards don't see this process clearly from beginning to end.

If you are not satisfied with the teaching content of the school, the Hogwarts library also has a lot of materials for the little wizards to refer to and study in depth, provided that you choose the right book.

The above thinking can be regarded as the advantages of simplified magic - easy to learn, self-contained, and still retains the possibility of continuous improvement.

This is far superior to ancient magic.

You must know that ancient wizards did not even have standard and unified spellcasting actions. Every time they learned an ancient magic, it meant an adventure. They naturally tended to the same type of magic to reduce the risk of learning new magic.

In addition, the ancient wizards followed the master-apprentice teaching system, and communication was not as convenient as it is now, which also led to their serious partiality. Many wizards only mastered a few flame magics in their lifetime.

According to Felix's conjecture, only when he has mastered a large number of practical features of ancient Rune and the combination of Rune can he truly exert the power of ancient magic.

Even with a few flame magics, he can start a prairie fire.

And simplifying magic isn't all advantages—

A corollary of this practice is that the older the magic is, the harder it is for wizards today to master them.

This is because some ancient magics have inherited an understanding of magic from ancient wizards, but this understanding seems out of place in the current magic system.

For example, the Patronus Charm focuses more on the use of spiritual power.

And its method of mobilizing magic power is not included in the basic spell-casting movements taught by Hogwarts, which means that you have to relearn several, or even a dozen or so ways to mobilize and control magic power, which is almost difficult. More than 90% of the wizards.

Felix realized this early on, and also thought of getting rid of the shackles of simplifying the magic framework.

He first read books in the library to learn more ways to mobilize and control magic.

He also tried to unearth powerful magic from various ancient tomes, mastered and mastered them.

In fact, this is also the choice of many wizards-in the pursuit of powerful magic, to improve the control of magic and the understanding of magic.

Felix then took aim at what he believed to be a practical ancient rune that pointed directly to the essence of magic, and developed it all the way to the present day.

But now it seems that rune is the essence of magic?

In just a year, he had seen Slytherin's blood magic, Ravenclaw's memory magic, and Dumbledore's hidden transfiguration.

Everyone is on the right path, although Felix has no doubts that the path he has chosen has the greatest potential.

If he is to judge now, there is one and only one essence of magic, and that is magic power—the magic power that wizards are born with.

With magic, there is a world of magic that blooms with a hundred flowers and colorful.

This chapter rounds out some of the settings of the original book. It is written baldly. I ask everyone's opinion. If you don't like it, the author will reduce this purely theoretical description.

Also, there are two chapters today.
