Chapter 35: Hogwarts Learning Panel Chapter 17

"Cool!"

"Wow!"

Excited and surprised shouts came from the students below.

Professor Fuliwei nodded with a smile.

The Charms class began in this excited atmosphere.

Just as in Sien's impression, Professor Fuliwei explained the theory of charms in simple terms,

and subsequently, he began to teach the simplest charm—the Lumos spell.

"The key to Lumos lies in the movement of the wrist; the pause must be decisive..."

Professor Fuliwei's voice echoed in the classroom.

Everyone tried with all their might, and most of them succeeded.

【You practiced the Lumos spell once at the beginner standard, proficiency +3】

【You practiced the Lumos spell once at the beginner standard, proficiency +3】

The tip of Sien's wand glowed continuously.

"Success!"

Michael practiced three times before his wand tip began to glow.

He turned his head excitedly, just in time to see the tip of Terry's wand also emitting light.

As for Anthony, he seemed to have learned it in advance; he succeeded on the first try.

"Alright,"

Michael pouted and went to find another young wizard.

"Sien?"

【You practiced the Lumos spell once at the beginner standard, proficiency +3】

"Sien?"

【You practiced the Lumos spell once at the proficient standard, proficiency +10】

"Hmm? Sien, didn't you hear me?"

Michael tilted his head and leaned over.

But in Sien's head, only Professor Fuliwei's voice remained—

"If you still can't release the Lumos spell, you should try one method:

that is to imagine yourself in total darkness, longing for light, ah, you are so longing for light..."

"Longing..."

Sien muttered to himself, recalling the nights at the orphanage, where the room, having lost power early, didn't even have candlelight.

At that time, fugitives were still hiding in London, and the wind and snow beat against the drafty windows, making a pattering sound.

Sien lay on the hospital bed; he wasn't afraid, but the longing for light was something he couldn't shake off.

"I have a wand now,"

Sien said,

"Lumos!"

【You practiced the Lumos spell once at the master standard, proficiency +300】

"Merlin! Everyone, look at Mr. Sean Green!"

Professor Fuliwei ran down from the pile of books in excitement.

The entire classroom was enveloped in a ball of soft light.

The young wizards all held their breath, looking at the ball of light that was at least ten times larger, and the young wizard holding his wand, his hair shimmering with silver-white.

"A perfect Lumos spell, I'm going to add ten points to Ravenclaw!"

The young wizards heard Professor Fuliwei say.

"Sien, Sien, how did you do it? Teach me, I really want to learn this."

Michael chattered in his ear.

"It's emotion,"

Sien said seriously,

"Magic is something a wizard carries within themselves. Its strength depends on the wizard's emotions or mental power."

"Emotion?"

Michael repeated, and Anthony, Terry, and Hermione, who were eavesdropping behind him, were also lost in thought.

Just as they were stunned, Sien had already turned into the Great Hall.

Jia Siting sat down beside him as if he had a radar installed;

he could always find Sien.

Sien was curiously poking at a steak and kidney pudding, wondering what kind of mindset British wizards had when they invented this dish.

He thought while eating his food.

*Magical Theory* emphasized mental power and emotion several times,

such as:

"When you have mastered a piece of magic, to truly unleash its maximum power,

you also need sufficient mental power," and similar phrases appeared repeatedly in the book.

Sien thought that mental power was probably a collective term, containing a wizard's mental level and emotions.

Mental level was probably something like willpower.

And emotion was not hard to understand.

Adding the two together was the key to advancing the "Force of 'I Reckon'".

The influence of emotion on magic is significant, which is probably the most idealistic part of magic.

Mrs. Mo Li Wei Silai, who had lost a child and had to protect another,

was stimulated by Fred's death at the hands of Bella during the final battle.

In a fit of rage, Mrs. Wei Silai screamed:

"Never—again—touch—my—child!"

Immediately, five silent spells instantly turned the tide of battle and finished off Bella.

Harry, by the lake in the Forbidden Forest, in order to protect the life of his godfather, Black,

roared:

"Ex—pec—to—Pa—tro—num!"

The next moment, he displayed an extremely powerful Patronus Charm, driving away hundreds of Dementors.

These examples made Sien realize

how powerful the status of emotion is in magic.

"If the emotion for the Lumos spell is longing for light, then what is it for the Scourgify spell?"

Sien thought this way, and subconsciously said goodbye to Jia Siting and headed to the greenhouse.

Huh?

Jia Siting?

Sien looked back at Jia Siting again. ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
