In the wizarding world, maliciously killing innocent small animals is considered a serious crime and is generally classified as second-degree murder. Especially in wizard settlements, like First University, Four Seasons Pavilion, and Beta Town, the judgement on such behaviors is even stricter.
This is done to protect the wizards.
In modern magic, transformation magic is a widely disseminated and used spell. In long-term practice, wizards have gradually summarized many characteristics of transformation magic. One of the most important is known as 'Mendel's Paradox'.
Mendel's Paradox is also referred to as the Impossible Triangle Law.
This law states that a wizard cannot simultaneously achieve free species transformation, independent will, and magic power stability.
