The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 282: Jon Hart's Philosophy of Magic (Part 1) (Part 1)

Almost every headmaster of Hogwarts is a little famous wizard in history.

There are more than 30 headmasters, their fields of expertise cover almost every corner of the magic world, even the more partial content such as ancient runes or magical animals is no exception.

There are even one or two black arts experts, such as Lady Elizabeth Bork who was headmaster from 1398-1422.

When Jon found that they were all happy to answer his own questions, he realized... the most precious treasure in the entire principal's office is not the cabinet of books that can hardly be found anywhere else, but the portraits of these previous principals .

They can answer almost every question Jon asks, no matter how advanced or remote.

Of course, there is also a problem. With so many principals, the opinions cannot be completely unified. So all kinds of quarrels also appeared. From time to time, several principals would point at each other's noses and yell at each other like shrews over a small problem... Academic conflicts are endless.

The principal's office is now as lively as a vegetable market every day, and national curses such as fxxk emerge in endlessly.

So much so that Jon had to go to the stone monster to "refuge" frequently.

...

It was another late night, after eating a turkey leg, Jon left the stone monster who was about to cry, and tiptoed back to the principal's office.

The noise inside had just disappeared... Although he knew that all the principals were pretending to be asleep, staying in the quiet office made Jon finally feel a little relieved.

Just finished eating the turkey leg, Jon felt a little thirsty... He glanced at the glass of pumpkin juice on the table, and suddenly had an idea.

"Accio juice!" Jon yelled softly, holding out a hand instead of a wand.

The cup shook slightly, but that was all, it didn't fly straight into Jon's hand.

Jon shook his head helplessly, took out his wand and waved it lightly... The cup of pumpkin juice successfully flew into his hand this time, allowing him to take a sip.

There was a sudden mocking laugh behind him.

Jon turned to see Phineas Black slinking open his eyes and snickering there.

"What a clumsy way to cast spells without a wand!" Principal Black sarcastically whispered.

Jon ignored him.

"But in this regard, I can be regarded as an expert." Phineas Black's excited face was almost full of "come and beg me".

Jon still ignored him, and went back to drinking pumpkin juice.

"Hey, hey!" Principal Black seemed a little anxious, and he asked hastily, "Are you really not interested in casting spells without a stick?"

"Yes, I'm not interested." Jon turned around and nodded: "To be precise, I don't have time... I have a lot to learn during this time; even if I really want to learn, I have to wait a while It's time!"

"Haven't you ever thought that magic can be cast by clapping your hands, and you don't need to reach for a wand stupidly...how chic and handsome is this?" Phineas Black asked with a puzzled expression.

Jon didn't speak, which made Headmaster Black look embarrassed.

"Is there something wrong with what I said?" He asked in surprise.

"Is the magic from wandless casting stronger than ordinary spellcasting?" Jon asked calmly.

"Of course not, it will be much weaker." Phineas Black shook his head: "But you don't need a magic wand."

"So does it serve any practical purpose?" Jon continued.

"You don't need a wand..." Principal Black repeated in vain.

"Is the wand heavy to carry, or is it harmful to wizards to use it for a long time?" Jon smiled and asked again.

"That way is not..."

"Then why are you so hostile to wands?" Jon asked curiously.

Principal Black seemed to be surrounded by Jon, his face was flushed, but he couldn't even say a word.

There was an awkward silence in the principal's office.

Many of the principals in the surrounding portraits quietly opened their eyes...Looking at the speechless Principal Phineas Black, they couldn't help sniggering.

...

"You have to think about it this way..." Phineas Black thought for a moment, and finally choked out a few words: "What if your wand is lost, or someone disarms you... Then casting spells without a wand Wouldn't it play a very important role?"

After speaking, he looked a little complacent, feeling that he had the upper hand in this debate.

"Principal Black..." Jon glanced at Phineas Black's portrait with some sympathy, and asked softly, "Do you often lose your wand, or are you cast a disarming spell from time to time?"

"How is it possible!" Phineas Black shook his head angrily, and said without hesitation, "For a wizard, the wand is his second life, how can he lose it casually?"

Jon spread his hands regretfully.

Phineas Black obviously realized that he had slipped his words, and hastily added: "If I meet a strong opponent, and he uses the disarming spell to remove my weapon... In this case, the wandless spell will be effective. arrive……"

"A strong opponent?" Jon repeated softly: "Principal Black, I can understand that it is a wizard who is stronger than you or a wizard at your level? For example, Professor Dumbledore?"

"Albus's talent is indeed a little bit stronger than mine!" Phineas Black nodded humbly.

"Then have you ever seen Professor Dumbledore often use the Disarming Curse?" Jon asked curiously.

The smile on Principal Black's face froze instantly.

"Or is it that you often see an outstanding wizard who uses the Disarming Curse every day?" Jon continued to ask with a puzzled look: "Also, if you are holding a wand, you are no match for him; , The spell cast is much weaker, so it will be his opponent?"

Seeing the speechless Phineas, the principals beside him couldn't help but burst out laughing.

...

"It might be a bit biased to say that..." Jon raised his head and gave Principal Phineas Black an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, Principal Black."

"But I think - the biggest difference between wizards and Fantastic Beasts is that wizards can use tools..."

"That's right." A deep voice came from above, and Principal Oliver Cromwell nodded solemnly.

Looking at the headmasters who were all waking up on a wall, Jon stood up and said slowly, "I've never been a talented wizard..."
