Hermione thought for a moment and said with a raised eyebrow, "Maybe he's not in his right mind."
Ah, this...
Andy was speechless.
Mentally abnormal ...
This reason could explain all the irrationalities.
"Let's not worry about what his mental state is like, and let's not worry about the unreasonable issues ... What about his purpose?"
Andy said with a straight face, "After all he had done, there has to be a purpose, right?"
Hermione said with a helpless look on her face, "It's the same question. What's something that you can do, but no one else can? Andy, I can't think of anything!"
Andy also had a bit of a headache.
Even if all those unreasonable parts were ignored and only Voldemort's purpose was considered ... Andy couldn't figure out why Voldemort's Horcrux was targeting him.
Andy is neither 'The Boy Who Lived' nor can he help Voldemort resurrect, he simply won't be of help to him!
Amid small talk, Andy and Hermione arrived at the seventh floor of the castle.
After checking around and seeing no one nearby, Andy opened the magic practice room in the Room of Requirement.
No matter how life changed, magic still had to be practised continuously.
"Andy!"
Hermione suddenly asked, "Do you know the Imperius Curse?"
Andy: "..."
This ... Do I know it, or not?
"I want to try!"
Hermione said with a straight face, "Do you believe Weasley's words? To verify whether Weasley is lying or not, I think the best way is to test the effect of the Imperius Curse!"
To be honest, Andy was a bit tempted.
Ever since learning the three unforgivable curses, Andy had only cast them on the air.
The killing curse was fine, you could at least see a green light.
But with the Imperius Curse and the Cruciatus Curse, there were really no special effects at all, Andy always felt that casting those spells felt empty.
Especially the Imperius Curse.
This magic involved the soul, Andy always wanted to find someone to test it.
"Have you thought about it?" Andy asked seriously.
"Of course!"
Hermione tilted her chin and said with a confident expression, "I read in a book that a strong 'will' can help you resist the effects of the Imperius Curse a bit. On top of that, if an Imperius Curse is cast on a person multiple times, that person will develop a resistance that will weaken the power of the curse."
"That's a good point."
The Toolman Andy Collins nodded and pulled his wand out of his wizard robe, reconfirming, "Hermione, if you're ready, then I will cast the spell."
With a light hum, Toolman Hermione Granger said confidently, "Andy, come on!"
Andy wanted to experiment with the effects of the spell, and Hermione wanted to try to resist the Imperius Curse.
At this moment, the two were using each other as Toolmen.
Andy raised his wand and pointed it at Hermione, and softly recited under his breath, "Imperio!"
While casting the spell, Andy had been paying attention to Hermione's reaction.
Perhaps it was because Andy was not skilled enough in the Imperius Curse, Hermione who had been struck by the Imperius Curse looked a bit dumbfounded, completely different from her usual self.
"Come on, dance for me," Andy ordered.
It was an indescribable feeling.
Hermione's soul was under control, and Andy could directly give orders to Hermione's soul and then go through Hermione's soul to manipulate Hermione's body.
It was because of this that the highly advanced Imperius Curse would be completely unnoticeable.
This was because although the person who was under the spell had to listen to the caster's commands, in terms of 'behaviour', the person under the spell was still controlling himself.
Just like Hermione at this moment ...
Although Hermione followed Andy's 'order' to make the 'dance' action, in essence, Andy only gave an order, the one who controlled this body to dance was actually Hermione's soul.
"Well ... the movements are a bit stiff."
Andy commented in a small voice, and then continued to order, "Jump in place twice."
Hermione, like a puppet, obediently jumped twice.
"Run in a circle and look around."
"Walk forward - walk!"
Andy tried a few more commands before waving his wand to cancel the effects of the Imperius Curse.
"Uh ..."
Hermione blushed before looking at Andy with a killer look on her face, "Andy, are you having fun!"
Andy said with an innocent face, "I'm just testing the effect of the Imperius Curse."
To be honest, Andy felt that he was similar to a monk in Monkey King at this moment.
The monk controlled the monkey king using a headband and tightening spell. And Andy controlled Hermione and could let her walk a few steps at random.
What great power of control is this?
"Hermione, how did you feel?" Andy asked in a hurry.
"Well ..."
Hermione pondered for a moment, carefully recalling what she had felt before, "I have memories and I can hear the orders you give, and it's very clear. As for your normal speech, I can hear that too."
Andy nodded slightly at her words.
In that case, it seemed that Ron was not hiding information.
"Other than that?" Andy continued to ask.
Hermione said, "A blank mind and a feeling of bliss. It was like...that state was what I had always wanted to attain, and I got it all."
"But now that I think about it, that feeling was so false."
False?
Andy retorted, "The so-called bliss has both material and spiritual enjoyment. There is no difference between the two, it just depends on which one we desire more."
It was like playing a game and recharging money to buy equipment.
In the eyes of those who don't understand, this behaviour is tantamount to wasting money. But to the person playing the game, he gets happiness in the game.
Is spending money to buy happiness ... not worth it?
"No! I think that feeling is empty."
Hermione said with a straight face, "I don't deny spiritual enjoyment, but for me, reading a book is spiritual enjoyment. Dazing, aka travelling in space-like feeling ... that's not for me."
Andy was somewhat surprised at her words, "So, you were able to resist the Imperius Curse?"
"Of course!"
Hermione nodded, and then tilted her chin to look at Andy and said, "Andy, the Ministry of Magic stipulates that the Imperius Curse is one of the Unforgivable Curses, and once it is used on a person, they will be imprisoned for life in Azkaban."
Andy: "..."
"You have no proof!" Andy shrugged, unconcerned.
Hermione glared at Andy and grunted softly, "When I become Minister of Magic, I'm going to put you in Azkaban!"
"Then you'll have to work hard!" Andy rolled his eyes.
"Hmph! Again! This time I'll try to resist your Imperius Curse."
The little witch said with fighting spirit, "And aggravate your crime by the way!"
Andy opened the system panel and glanced at the [Dark Magic] talent that only had two points.
If it wasn't for the lack of [Potential Points], I would definitely let you see what the terror of dark magic means.
"Be careful!"
Andy reminded, before raising his wand and reciting softly:
"Imperio!"
