Chapter 291 The Lost History of Magic
"The Lost History of Magic?"

"It's the lost history of Roman magic."

Hughes repeated it seriously.

“Is this a big difference?”

"Very big," Hughes found a place to sit. "In fact, because of the uncertainty, the current history of magic doesn't talk much about this. But it is the mainstream research direction - many wizards who study the history of magic are extremely concerned about it."

"You're only in second grade, and you're already studying this?"

Hal couldn't help but interject, but Kevin next to him rolled his eyes and said, "Come on, what does personal hobbies have to do with grade?"

"Don't interrupt, Hughes, just continue."

"Well," Hughes nodded, "In fact, have you noticed that all spells have one thing in common?"

"Latin?"

Andrew said uncertainly that he had taught himself a little, but not much - because his self-study was interrupted and he started studying at Hogwarts.

The later Transfiguration involved all kinds of messy information, and the addition of Vagado's spell system made him ignore the fact that most of the Hogwarts spells were in Latin.

"Yes, that's right, Latin. Not only us, but also the spells of the three European magic schools can be closely related to Latin. Moreover, the older the spell, the more closely it is related to Latin."

Hughes said with certainty, "But unfortunately, due to the war in the wizarding world or some other factors, most of the information from that period was lost. Only some remaining historical materials have been collected and sorted out bit by bit."

"Even Hogwarts isn't complete?"

Bell exclaimed, but was mercilessly mocked by Kevin.

"The Roman magic world collapsed along with the Roman Empire. As for Hogwarts, that was hundreds of years later. Listen carefully to the History of Magic, Bell."

"Everyone is A, how can you say that?"

...

After successfully hurting each other, everyone shut up.

"Go on, Hughes."

Andrew looked serious - he had never thought about this before.

If the spells of the three major magic schools all originated from Latin, then the wizards of ancient Rome are the founders of the current European spell system?
But there is also magic information saying that the magic in Vagadu is earlier?
There is also the creation of the magic wand system... but this seems to be much later...

'Damn it, fortunately there is Hughes, otherwise I would have to study the history of magic hard - but I still have to learn a little bit, the origin... may even be related to powerful ancient magic, or even earlier.'

But the thoughts were soon interrupted by Hughes' description.

"Since a lot of information is missing, there are several speculations now, but I am more in favor of the restriction faction's view."

He made sure everyone was listening carefully and began to describe the general concept.

"Not all spell systems are based on the Latin system. For example, the magic system of Ugadu is said to be able to cast spells directly with gestures."

Andrew nodded, but the others didn't notice this little action.

"So, the restrictionists believe that the way wizards used magic at first limited the development of magic in various regions. For example, Latin spells use gestures and Latin spells."

"It is generally believed that these special means communicate magic, allowing the spells that wizards intend to use to appear, and the so-called spells and gestures are all means to better communicate magic. Just like when we write, quill pens and ink can be used, but Muggle ballpoint pens can also be used. We can even write directly on the ground with wooden sticks or fingers - don't do this!"

Someone has already fainted.

Fortunately, Andrew could still understand.

"Interesting," he nodded, motioning for Hughes to continue, "So, what about the wand system?"

"The wand actually came later. If it weren't for the amplification effect and spell stabilization effect of the wand itself, its addition would actually be a negative, because the wand is far less flexible than the fingers. However... it adds too much, so wizards have begun to adapt to the wand."

"anything else?"

Andrew was very happy to hear this. "No more, that's all the explanations of magic and spells, and then there's the wizards' hobbies, food, entertainment, etc., all of which are already mentioned, it's the lost history of Roman magic..."

Xius spread his hands and said, "If you want to listen, I can tell you."

Who wants to listen to that!

Andrew just wanted to curse.

But he has gained a lot, and who should be blamed for the loss of history?

However——the magic of the Vagadu system...

Another collision of systems?
He realized that this thing had a much greater effect than he had imagined.

However, it was too early for him to delve into the later things - even his knowledge of Transfiguration was just barely passable, and his spells were just to meet the requirements of students. It was really presumptuous of him to try to get involved in the hidden things of the two systems.

"Go ahead and learn. There is still a lot to learn..."

While he was sighing, the others also came back to their senses from Xius's background description. "This is incredible. The three schools use the same system. No, there is also the American side. What is it?"

"Ilvermorny."

"Yes, Ilvermorny, they imitated our Hogwarts, so it is a common system for four schools. It is really a great knowledge."

Therefore, because of this great knowledge, the few people spent their last time before leaving school studying the information compiled by Xius - more detailed and more amazing.

It was not until the evening that Andrew was notified that Professor McGonagall had asked him to come over.

"Ah, is that enough for what we talked about during the morning shift?"

It’s still a two-week vacation, and then I go back to school to work - I’m used to it, so I’ll just leave it like that.

As he thought, he ran towards Professor McGonagall's office.

"Professor, I'm coming."

"Just in time, your spellcasting notification has arrived. Remember to take it with you. Don't forget to practice when you get back. Of course, don't cast spells randomly."

Professor McGonagall picked up an official document from the Ministry of Magic and handed it to him.

This is great. It would be terrible not to cast a spell for two weeks - for this reason, returning to school early is just a small loss.

"Also, the vacation is extended to twenty days, but you have to learn a little German."

"German?"

"At least you can understand it. We have something important to discuss."

Professor McGonagall looked serious.

"German, to Durmstrang?"

"Yes, let's go there first to exchange ideas and see if we can recruit a professor," Professor McGonagall sighed. "There is always work to be done. We could have postponed it, but we have developed new technology and we need to communicate with each other."

"Remember to strictly abide by the confidentiality program and do not reveal the itinerary and content—we may have to hold talks about the restart of the Triwizard Tournament."

"Yes, I promise."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Andrew and found that he did not move. Then she sighed and said, "Go to the library and look up the school history, Taylor. Your history of magic really needs to be improved."

"Okay, Professor, I'll go borrow it right away."

"Well, go ahead and have some rest."

"Yes, Professor, you should also have a good rest."
