The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific.

Chapter 214 Translating Slytherin's Research Materials

It was a calm and peaceful afternoon.

Apart from Harry and Ron losing twenty points to Snape in the hallway, nothing major happened at Hogwarts.

Andy was sometimes curious about just how twisted Snape's feelings for Harry had become that he would abandon his adult dignity and bully a child all day long.

……

Ravenclaw's dedicated library.

"There's no one in the lounge anymore," Andy said, glancing at the clock on the wall of the lounge.

It's 9:30 PM now.

"Hermione, let's go!" Andy urged.

Hermione looked at Andy with a helpless expression. "Andy, we agreed that we have to be back to sleep before midnight so we don't miss tomorrow's classes."

"Of course!" Andy assured him.

Grabbing an Old English translation dictionary, Andy and Hermione left the lounge and headed up the stairs to the second floor.

"Andy!"

"kindness?"

Hermione suddenly said, "Since Slytherin really did leave behind a secret room, do you think the legend of the Ravenclaw library might also be true?"

Andy was also curious. After thinking for a moment, he said, "It should be true! But I don't know what use it is. After reading all the books... are there any secrets hidden in those books?"

Hermione continued, "Then do you think Gryffindor and Hufflepuff might have left something behind as well?"

Andy shook his head and said, "There are no such rumors at Hogwarts."

Hermione said with a hint of greed, "It's a pity, if only we could crack all the secrets of the Four Greats."

Andy: Me too!

As they spoke, Andy and Hermione arrived at the abandoned girls' restroom on the second floor. Andy waved his wand—locking the door and casting a silencing spell in one smooth motion.

"Hiss (Open)!"

Andy used Parsley to open the entrance to the secret room.

"Andy!"

Hermione suddenly turned to Andy, looking bewildered, and said, "We forgot to bring our flying brooms."

Andy: "..."

"I have an idea... Hermione, would you like to try it?"

Andy turned to Hermione and said, "I used a levitation charm on you, and you used it on me. Guess what will happen next?"

Hermione's eyes lit up. "Shall we both fly together?"

"Hmm!" Andy shrugged.

Hermione took out her wand and pointed it at Andy, saying earnestly, "Andy, I'm coming."

"Yugadim, Leviosa!"

As the incantation was recited, Andy, under Hermione's control, slowly flew into the air. "This is my first time experiencing flight with the Levitation Charm, hmm... it's quite interesting."

As he spoke, Andy tapped Hermione slightly with his wand, and Hermione flew into the air.

"We both really flew!"

Hermione was pleasantly surprised.

If she and Andy master the Levitation Charm, they can fly anywhere they want to go in the future.

This is much more exciting than traveling by car.

"Are we just going to fly down to the bottom of the secret chamber like this?" Hermione asked.

"Wait a moment!"

Andy, somewhat convinced, said, "Hermione, you can definitely control me, right?"

What if I fall...

With Andy's small arms and legs, wouldn't a couple of them break?

"Duh!" Hermione rolled her eyes.

The little witch gently moved her wand, and Andy immediately floated towards the entrance of the secret chamber.

"Well done!" Andy gave a thumbs up, then controlled Hermione to float behind him.

The two, one in front of the other, used levitation spells to control each other and slowly flew towards the bottom of the secret chamber.

"It feels so good to be grounded." After landing, Hermione couldn't help but stretch her body. Floating in the air was fun, but after a while, her body started to feel uncomfortable.

"Hermione, would you say we've developed a new use for the Levitation Charm?" Andy said as he walked deeper into the chamber.

"Of course!"

Hermione exclaimed excitedly, "Perhaps the Levitation Charm will become a new way for wizards to travel in the future!"

"Don't forget about Apparition," Andy reminded him.

During their conversation, Andy and Hermione arrived at the deepest secret room. After opening the laboratory door, the two went inside together.

"Andy, which one should we translate first?" Hermione asked.

Andy pulled a black-covered book out of the cabinet. "Let's translate this one first."

"Okay!" Hermione exclaimed energetically, grabbing an old English dictionary and preparing to translate the book.

"Wait a moment!"

Andy quickly grabbed Hermione, saying with a helpless expression, "Hermione, we're wizards."

"Huh?" Hermione looked confused.

Andy tapped the old English dictionary, the black-covered book, and the notebook with his wand, and then cast a spell on the quill, making it write words.

After the spell was completed, the ancient English dictionary, the black-covered book, and the notebook all flew into the air at the same time, and the quill pen wrote quickly on the notebook.

Flipping through the black-covered book and the Old English dictionary, it was as if someone were actually looking up information.

"This is how wizards copy books."

Andy said, "The books at Hogwarts used to be written in Old English, and the professors had to grade the work of seven years' students every week. If they had to write everything by hand, they would have never finished even if their hands broke."

The little witch was a little embarrassed. "I just... didn't react for a moment."

Andy said, "We need to learn to solve problems with our wands and make spellcasting an instinct."

Andy recalled that in the movie, when Harry and Ron were fighting the troll, one climbed onto the troll's neck and started hand-to-hand combat, while the other stood at a distance and threw stones.

We now have both main tank (MT) and damage dealer (DPS).

It's one thing if it's in first grade, but it's impossible to be throwing stones and fighting with the enemy when you're almost graduating from seventh grade, right?

Andy continued, "Now, except for things that absolutely require my hands, I use my wand to do everything else."

"If we persist, when we encounter danger in the future, our hands will be able to draw our wands faster than our brains."

Hermione considered Andy's words carefully, and finally said, "Maybe you're right, I'll give it a try."

With the task of copying the book no longer a concern, Andy and Hermione found themselves completely idle.

"Andy, what kind of magic do you think might be recorded in Slytherin's research papers?"

Hermione, sprawled on the round table, yawned and said, "I bet it's some kind of evil dark magic! Otherwise, Slytherin wouldn't be hiding here secretly researching it."

"It's magical transformation!" Andy stated bluntly.

Anyway, Hermione will be able to see those books and manuscripts sooner or later, and she will know the truth eventually.

"Magical transformation?"

Hermione was taken aback. "Is that a form of Transfiguration?"

Andy explained, "It's body transformation! It's about modifying the body through body transformation."

The little witch exclaimed, "Body modification? No wonder Slytherin was hiding and secretly researching it! Andy, do you think Slytherin might use their students for experiments?"
