Andy waited quietly in the Headmaster's office with nothing to do left and right.
He didn't dare to touch the magical items in the office, and the portraits of successive headmasters hanging on the wall were drowsy, Andy swept his eyes around and finally stopped at the bookshelf on the other wall.
As the best Ravenclaw student of the first year, reading a book in the Headmaster's office is very consistent with my status, right?
That's what Andy thought, and that's what he did.
Walking over to the bookshelf, Andy looked at the titles of various books in turn.
The magic books that could be placed in the Headmaster's office by Dumbledore, all of them were valuable classics in the magical world, and some of the magic recorded in the books were even more dangerous than the ones in the restricted section.
Secrets of the Darkest Art
Andy's line of sight lurched, and then he removed his gaze reluctantly.
Andy had talked to the seniors in Ravenclaw House, it was clear that Hogwarts did not teach dark magic. After studying here for seven years, you can basically deal with all kinds of dangers in the magical world after graduation, and it's quite convenient in terms of daily life.
The prerequisite was that you had to study hard.
But dark magic is different.
Perhaps it was because those dark wizards of the past were usually inhuman, and they would often do some very cruel and forbidden experiments to study dark magic.
Take Azkaban, the British wizarding world's prison, as an example; Azkaban used to be a fortress built by a wizard named Ekrizdis, who lured muggle sailors there and took pleasure in torturing and abusing them.
There were rumours that Ekrizdis had done many dangerous magic experiments in Azkaban, and the test subjects were those muggles.
Andy had also heard a saying in his previous life that the development of modern medicine was built on human experimentation.
In fact, not only medicine but even the development of physics, chemistry and biology were all built on experiment after experiment, it's just that these experiments did not seem so bloody.
Andy had also peeked at some books that introduced dark magic.
The development of dark magic was also based on bloody experiments over and over again. A lot of dark magic was research conducted by ancient dark wizards on muggles and wizards themselves.
These included the soul, bloodline, mind, life, magic, and many other areas.
There was no doubt that the more talented a wizard was, the more likely they were to become obsessed with dark magic.
This was because dark magic itself was an exploration of the wizards themselves.
In comparison, the so-called white magic paled into insignificance.
The magic mechanism at the entrance to the Headmaster's office might seem magical, but a Muggle lift could do the same.
Andy quickly scanned through all the titles of the books and finally settled on Secrets of the Darkest Art.
Taking a deep breath, Andy calmed his excitement.
Reading a dark magic book in the Headmaster's office, Andy felt that he had been very bold.
Andy had actually wondered if the book was put here by Dumbledore on purpose.
But Andy did not care about Dumbledore's temptation.
Through this period of time, Andy realized that Dumbledore was the kind of person who was extremely forgiving. Andy had already thought about it, if Dumbledore wanted to preach, then he would listen honestly.
After knowing the mistake, he will change!
But before knowing the mistake ...
Andy reached out his little hand and took down Secrets of the Darkest Art.
"Hey! Kid, that book is not for you to read."
A stern voice suddenly sounded in the office.
Andy turned around and saw that it was the portrait of a fat wizard who had opened his eyes and was currently looking at him with an angry face.
Andy rolled his eyes, the dead person has no right to control the living person's affairs, right?
Even if you were the Headmaster, you couldn't take the sword of the former reign and behead the officials of this reign.
The former reign is over!
Opportunity is not to be lost, Andy took out his wand and pointed it at Secrets of the Darkest Art, after determining that there was no problem, Andy couldn't wait to flip the book.
After just a few glances, Andy felt a wave of dizziness.
Realizing that the situation was not right, Andy hurriedly used Occlumency, which made him feel slightly better.
This was the bad thing about many magic books, due to the magic recorded on them, the books were also endowed with certain magical abilities.
Due to the time constraint, Andy quickly browsed through the table of contents.
"Kid, didn't you hear me? Which House are you from?" The fat wizard was a bit dissatisfied and his tone was harsh.
"Shut up!"
Another black-haired male wizard portrait said at this time, "What's wrong with a young wizard reading some books? Is this something you should be in charge of as well?"
The fat wizard said defiantly, "He's reading a book on dark magic!"
The black-haired male wizard looked disdainful, "What's wrong with dark magic? Isn't dark magic also magic? When I was Headmaster, there was no such rule in the school."
"That's why you're the most unpopular Hogwarts Headmaster in all the years!" A witch portrait suddenly said.
Is this a quarrel?
Andy didn't mind it, found the chapter introducing the mind aspect through the table of contents, quickly flipped to that chapter, and directly read it.
Worthy of being a dark magic book, it was just different from a normal magic book.
In a normal magic book, it would only teach you how to enhance the power of magic by regulating your emotions.
This was something that many wizards understood, they just couldn't do it at all.
But this dark magic book was different, there were many ways to stimulate emotions recorded on it.
All of them were evil acts, some of them were about harming themselves, and some of them even about sacrificing loved ones and friends.
Of course, Andy had no intention of learning these dark methods.
What Andy looked at was more of theoretical knowledge.
All of this theoretical knowledge was painstakingly researched by the predecessors through human experiments, and it was the most valuable treasure of the magical world.
"Which House young wizard are you from?" That witch asked.
Andy looked up and had a quick look, the one who spoke was a witch wearing glasses.
"I'm a first-year Ravenclaw," Andy said and continued to look down at the book.
The fat witch grunted, "I thought you were a Slytherin!"
"What's wrong with Slytherin, tell me clearly!" The dark-haired male wizard stormed out on the spot.
The fat male wizard sounded dismissive, "What's wrong with Slytherin? It's Slytherin that brings down the school! Look, even the young first-year wizards are starting to practice dark magic."
After saying that, he also said gloatingly to Andy, "When Dumbledore comes back, let's see how he'll punish you."
Andy spoke in a calm tone, "If the Headmaster talks to me, I'll apologize obediently!"
Fat wizard: "..."
Did you even think about the consequences of this?
The black-haired male wizard said angrily, "What's wrong with learning dark magic? Dark magic is the essence of magic! It's because there are too many people like you that the development of the magic world has stopped."
Andy looked up, "This Headmaster has a point, may I ask who you are...?"
The dark-haired male wizard was a little amused.
Andy ignored all the other Headmasters but agreed with his theory.
They were just portraits, but Andy was a living, breathing student.
Wouldn't that prove he had won?
