Hogwarts: This Wizard Is Not Scientific

Isabel gritted her teeth and said, "Andy, if you don't give me the snacks back, I'm going to tell mom that you Apparated me."

Andy: "..."

Fuck, I’m a checkmate!

If Helen knew about this, she would beat Andy to death.

Isabel put her hands on her hips, looked at Andy smugly, and snorted, "Andy, I wanted to keep it a secret for you, but if you take my snacks... well, I can only give you a little bit at most."

"Then thank you." Andy said unhappily.

"Hehe!" The little girl laughed and quickly hugged the snack bag in her arms, "Andy, you are so rich, don't steal my snacks, if you want to eat, just buy them yourself! Besides, you can Apparate, how convenient!"

Andy pressed Isabel's little head and said, "I won't take it from you, but don't eat too much."

"Got it!" Isabel said happily.

After playing with Isabel for a while, Andy did feel a lot more relaxed.

However, there was no obvious change in the Fat Cat Guardian, and Andy didn't feel that it absorbed any energy.

Andy didn't care.

Cultivation is a long-term process and cannot be achieved in a short period of time.

However, Andy did not take back the Patronus Charm, but relaxed the control over the fat cat's Patronus and allowed it to move freely.

In the future, when he is at home, Andy plans to treat the fat cat guardian angel as a member of the family and summon it out for a walk every day.

And Isabel likes this fat cat very much and interacts with it often, and the fat cat guardian will also give some response.

Andy was also happy about this.

In the eyes of tool person Isabel, the fat cat patron saint and Andy are obviously not the same. The former is a cute cat, while the latter is an annoying and bullying brother.

In Andy's opinion, this kind of differentiated treatment is actually the best.

And this fat cat also loves to get close to Isabel.

If this method can really make the Fat Cat Guardian grow, Andy is really looking forward to what it will become.

In addition, Andy also plans to summon this fat cat when studying magic.

It is undeniable that learning magic is also a very happy thing - at least for Andy.

Of course, this doesn't apply when studying black magic.

With a pet in the family, Isabel is undoubtedly the happiest person.

Grandparents are old, Kyle and Helen have their own jobs, and Andy has to practice magic. Of all the family members, Isabel is the only one who has nothing to do.

With the fat cat guardian playing with her, the little girl is obviously much happier.

and many more!

Play?

Andy turned his head sharply to look.

After dinner, the family sat around the fireplace drinking tea and chatting. Isabel and the fat cat Patronus sat on the sofa, playing a very stupid game.

Can it play?

Chapter 303 The Future of the Fat Cat Guardian

On the sofa, Isabel was holding something like a cat toy and swinging it left and right, and the fat cat guardian was like a real stupid cat, staring at the cat toy intently and fluttering back and forth as the cat toy swung.

"This is……"

Andy could swear that he had absolutely no control over that stupid cat.

Before this, although the Fat Cat Guardian Angel had some initial spirituality, it was still somewhat dull and very different from a real living creature.

But now...it's like a real cat!

Helen followed Andy's gaze, raised her eyebrows, and asked in surprise: "Andy, are you controlling the Patronus?"

"No!" Andy shook his head.

“Then what is this…?” Helen was even more surprised when she heard this.

Although Helen didn't think Andy would control the Patronus to play such a stupid game with Isabel, this is also why the problem is bigger, right?

Will the guardian angel play games with people?

After hearing the conversation between Andy and Helen, others also looked at the fat cat guardian with curiosity.

Kyle stuttered, "Andy! Your Patronus can't really be self-aware, right?"

Kyle had read the paper Andy wrote. Not only Kyle, but Helen had read it too.

After all, that was Andy's first published paper, and it had such a great impact in the wizarding world. As parents, they would naturally support their child.

Helen even nearly memorized it.

Helen asked again to confirm: "Andy, you really didn't control the patronus?"

"of course not!"

Andy thought for a moment and explained, "You should know about Peeves, right? Peeves is not a ghost, but the embodiment of the students' mischievous emotions and the magic of the castle."

"My Patronus... should be the same principle."

The principles of many magics have a certain commonality, such as the Obscurus, the Patronus Charm, Peeves... Their similarity is that they are all the product of the fusion of mind and magic.

The difference between the three is:

Mo Moran is using negative emotions to suppress magic.

The Patronus Charm uses happy emotions to release magic.

As for Peeves... Andy didn't know about it, but one thing was confirmed - it was the students' naughty emotions combined with the magic of the castle that gave birth to Peeves.

Andy believes that the current state of the Fat Cat Guardian Angel is similar to the state of Peeves being conceived.

Peeves needs the students' mischievous mood.

And the Fat Cat Guardian needs, well... an environment that makes Andy feel happy.

Just like this moment!

As if she sensed everyone's gaze, Isabel looked over in confusion, "Why are you looking at me?"

Andy said, "It's okay, just keep playing!"

Helen bit her lip lightly, "Peeves..."

She turned to Kyle, "Kyle, do you know Peeves?"

As a reckless Gryffindor, Helen is only good at fighting against Peeves, but she has never understood Peeves' origins.

"I've heard some rumors."

Kyle said: "Peeves has been around since Hogwarts was founded. I don't know where he came from, but I know he's not a ghost."

Helen was a little worried. She asked cryptically, "Andy, your Patronus... is it okay? Didn't you say that you improved the Patronus Charm based on the principle of the birth of the Obscurus?"

Kyle laughed at this and said, "Then you must not have understood. Unlike the Obscurus, the Patronus Charm is just magic, so Andy can control it."

Andy nodded. "Although my patronus is an independent life, it depends on me for its existence. You can think of it as a member of the family."

Helen rolled her eyes at Kyle, and then continued, "But now it's different. If Andy's patronus has its own thoughts like Peeves, wouldn't it want to get rid of Andy's control?"

"You have to know that life is all about the pursuit of freedom."

This is what Helen is most worried about.

Andy retorted: "Mom, freedom is the biggest lie in life."

"Laws, morals, ethics, human relationships, other people's opinions, secular concepts, including the knowledge we have learned and our understanding of the world... There are many intangible things in this world that bind us."

“No one is truly free.”

“Even the pursuit of freedom itself is not free.”

At this moment, Andy turned into a master of philosophy and refuted Helen's words with sharp language.

Andy continued: "My presence is a restraint for this fat cat. So you don't have to worry."

As the Chinese say, Andy is the guardian angel of fat cats.

As long as Andy does not further integrate his mind and magic power and hand over more "heavenly authority" to the fat cat guardian, it will never have the ability to defy heaven.

As for the question of freedom...

In fact, compared to the false thing called "freedom", Andy still feels that "freedom" is more realistic.

Helen has to make potions every day to make money, take care of the family and children, and prepare three meals a day for the family.

Is she free?

She could choose not to do these things, but there was something invisible that constrained her and forced her to complete these things.

She is not free, but she can be at ease!

Helen didn't understand what Andy meant, but since Andy could ensure that he could restrain the patronus, Helen was not so worried.

"What do you think Andy's patronus will become?"

Helen asked curiously, "Can I be like Peeves, able to contact reality and speak?"

Andy thought about it, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not!"

Although the conditions for the creation of the Obscurus, the Patronus, and Peeves are very similar, there are still major differences between them.

Negative emotions, happy emotions, and naughty emotions that reject magic.

Different emotions will give birth to completely different magical creatures.

What's more, the condition for the birth of an Obscurus is the suppression of magic power, while casting the Patronus Charm requires the release of magic power.

Suppression and release... they are different no matter how you look at it, right?

"Um……"

Andy guessed: "I think the growth of the Patronus can only enhance its own abilities."

Kyle was surprised and asked, "You mean, your patronus will gain stronger spellcasting abilities?"

If that's the case, then wouldn't this fat cat be stronger than Andy?

Isn’t that too exaggerated?

"Uh……"

Andy explained: "What I mean is, when it has a certain level of intelligence, it might have the ability to... cast spells autonomously!"

When he said the last part, Andy was stunned for a moment.

Autonomous spellcasting...

Is there a limit to the growth of the Fat Cat Guardian?

Chapter 304 Get out of the way and stand up. I believe you!

Will the fat cat patronus have a limit?

Andy suddenly thought of an interesting point.

The upper limit of human beings constrains the upper limit of wizards, so Andy's upper limit will also be the upper limit of the fat cat patronus.

So...what is the upper limit?

Is it Andy's magical knowledge? His ability to cast spells? Or Andy's soul and heart?

Before this, Andy had experimented and found that the improvement of the [Will] attribute would increase the cohesion of the Fat Cat Guardian.

If the attributes on the right side of the system are the upper limit of the Fat Cat Guardian, then it is really possible for it to become stronger than Andy.

After all, Andy is a human being. If Andy wants to monetize his talent, he needs to spend a lot of time learning and practicing magic.

But for the fat cat patronus, these are just its natural instincts.

Because the Fat Cat Patronus is a magical being.
