Andy's talent in spells increased, and he was unwilling to waste this good opportunity, so he picked up his wand and prepared to go to the basement to practice magic.
Taking the stairs to the first-floor living room, he saw his sister Isabel lying on the sofa, eating snacks and reading a fairy tale book. She was relaxed and entertaining herself.
"What a monotonous childhood life," Andy thought. "Fortunately, I took her to the river to catch fish yesterday. Otherwise, how bored would she be every day? Maybe I should buy her a Muggle game console... Hmm... forget it. Being addicted to games is not a good thing."
Good brother Andy walked over and said, "Wingardium Leviosa."
With a gentle wave of his wand, Isabel and her fairy tale book floated into the air. This was a flying game that Muggle children had never experienced before. Andy felt that this spell was full of the love that an older brother had for his younger sister.
"Hmm..." Isabel puffed up her cheeks. This was the 103rd time this month. She had never been so eager to have a magic wand and recite all the spells she knew to Andy. No, recite them a thousand times.
If Andy had learned Legilimency, he would feel very gratified at this moment. The little girl finally learned how to work hard. This is love a thousand times.
"Where's mom?" Andy asked after putting Isabel down.
"Here!" Isabel raised her chin toward the potion room.
"I'm going to practice my spells. Do you want to come over and take a look?" Andy asked.
"No!" Isabel refused decisively.
When Andy practiced the spell for the first time, Isabel was very interested. But no matter how interesting something is, if it's repeated dozens of times, there will be no interest in it. Patting the little girl on the head, Andy walked into the basement alone.
The basement was originally a warehouse for storing items, but Andy needed to practice magic, so Kyle renovated the basement, built a new room, and expanded it with a space extension spell.
Andy was once very curious, why didn't Kyle and Helen practice magic?
The answers they gave were very powerful.
They felt that magic did not require practice. The magic they had mastered was enough to solve all the problems they encountered in life. Although they would become a little stronger if they continued to practice, it would only be a little bit. It felt like fitness for Muggles. Adults have enough strength to cope with the trivialities of life, so what's the point of continuing to exercise?
Dark wizards are dealt with by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, and Voldemort is also fought by Dumbledore. If all else fails, you can use your door key to live in other countries. Becoming more powerful in spellcasting can neither extend your life nor add a few more gold Galleons to your vault. In this case, it is enough to master enough magic to live on.
Andy understood. This is actually a problem of cognition. They had lived in the magical world since childhood and were accustomed to all kinds of magic, so they didn't think magic was so magical. It's like Andy thinks that Muggle technology of this era is very backward, while Mr. Weasley is obsessed with Muggle technology.
Shaking his head, Andy could do nothing about it. He just had to do his own thing. Walking into the practice room, Andy flipped the switch to turn on the basement light.
Don't think that the wizarding world won't use Muggle technology. Except for those wizards who are isolated from the world, the use of some Muggle technological products has become an unspoken agreement in the wizarding world.
The practice room was about 100 square meters. Kyle built several human-shaped targets here, and Helen also cast a spell to make some targets fly - as long as Andy attacked them, these targets would move by themselves.
In addition, Andy also installed a large mirror in the practice room, which almost occupied an entire wall. The power of magic and whether it can hit the target are important, but they are only a long-term strategy. More important than these is that the casting posture must be handsome.
This mirror allows Andy to observe his casting posture at any time so that he can adjust any casting movements that are unsightly in time.
"Petrificus Totalus""Stupefy"
"Incendio"
"Reparo"
The sound of Andy practicing spells could be heard in the basement. In addition to basic spells, Transfiguration was also within Andy's practice range.
There is a reason why Transfiguration was separated from the basic spells. Transfiguration is a very complex magic and it is one of the foundations for wizards to understand the principles of the world. For example, to transform a wooden stick into an iron stick, the wizard needs to understand the composition of both before he can begin the transformation.
Because of this, no single wizard can transform an object into a magical creature. Because they don't understand how magic works.
Andy sat down on the ground, breathing heavily, and opened the system to check his progress for the day. In just one hour of practice, the red liquid in the sphere had grown to one third.
Good progress!
The growth of red liquid not only means that Andy can gain potential points, but it also means that Andy's practice today is effective. If it is an ineffective exercise, the red liquid will not change at all.
But this is only temporary.
The reason why today's progress is so fast is mainly because Andy's magic talent has increased. When the talent is developed to a certain extent, the progress of practice will naturally slow down. Fortunately, the increase in talent allows Andy to learn new magic faster.
After taking a breath, Andy patted his butt and stood up from the ground. After tidying up the practice room with repairing and cleaning spells, Andy walked out of the basement.
In the living room, Helen and Isabel were sitting on the couch playing wizard cards.
"Andy, school hasn't started yet. If you work so hard now, the professor won't know how to teach you after school starts."
Helen shifted her position and said, "Come over here and take a break!"
"I can go to the library and read by myself." Andy said after sitting down. My current efforts are, of course, to allow me to spend more time in the library. Hogwarts is a seven-year program, and no matter how you think about it, it seems like there isn't enough time.
"My son is awesome!"
Of course Helen would not stop Andy from studying hard. It would be fine if she and Kyle were just lazy, but she had high hopes for Andy.
"Tsk!" Isabel curled her lips. She felt that she could never match Andy's level of effort, but when Andy was too old to walk, she would be able to defeat Andy. She has the upper hand in this regard!
"School starts in three days, don't be too tired these two days," Helen advised.
"Yeah! I'm also going to take a two-day break."
Andy said, "By the way, Mom, I should be able to read those magic books at home, right? I mean, the parts about spellcasting."
