HP: The Root of Everything - The Magician

Within a special alchemy formation.

After watching Nickel's agonizing screams for over ten minutes, Teach Carr stepped into the formation, took out four iron nails, and used them to fix Nickel's severed limbs. Then he began his research on the live dissection of the wizard.

Teach was curious to know how wizards' magic was generated.

Why are wizards different from ordinary people?

Why is their magic inexhaustible?

Why are they able to use magic... and a series of other questions.

Teach hadn't considered studying Os and the unnamed Auror he'd captured in Croton Carr's grave, as he'd only recently been exposed to magic. But now, with this rare opportunity, especially with his enemy Nicol involved, Teach didn't want to waste this material.

Moreover, isn't the fear of watching himself being dissected by Teach, with his organs being removed one by one, a form of torture in itself?

Do you know how much damage a piercing wrist bone can do to an ordinary person?

Titch Carr had experience dissecting and studying the ball-eating bird, and quickly made an initial experimental assessment of Nicol's body.

[This is unbelievable. This guy's body... doesn't generate any magic power. If he doesn't have any magic power, how does he use magic?]

Driven by a thirst for knowledge, Teach Carr once again picked up the scalpel and began to operate.

Finally, combining the information from his research with his own conjectures, Teach arrived at his answer.

It turns out that wizards, being carbon-based beings, cannot generate magic on their own; they are merely users of magic. Unlike Muggles, they have pores in their bodies that can absorb magical energy.

Magic is the natural energy produced by this world.

This vital energy pore is determined by birth; if he has it, he is a wizard; if he doesn't, he is a Muggle.

Wizards are born with vital energy pores, which gradually increase in number as they age. When the number of vital energy pores reaches a certain level, young wizards will unconsciously absorb natural magic from the air into their bodies due to their emotional fluctuations, resulting in a burst of magic due to their inability to control it.

When a young wizard reaches the age of eleven, the number of pores will stop increasing naturally. To continue increasing, he/she needs to learn magic and control magical power.

If one does not learn how to control magic, then uncontrollable magic will be trapped within the young wizard's body and unable to be released, resulting in the Obscurus completely going out of control.

So, is this why young wizards in Britain receive Hogwarts acceptance letters at the age of eleven?

Although the movies of my past life said that the professor would personally come to pick up the students, and whether or not a young wizard enrolled was entirely voluntary, according to my research and conjecture, how could a young wizard really be entirely voluntary?

[Hogwarts would not allow a young wizard who cannot control his magic to live in the Muggle world.]

Now that Teach has figured out the secret of the source of wizards' power, Nicol only has one last value left: to be refined into the Emerald of Life.

The special training array was erased, and Nicol's pain subsided. But before he could catch his breath, Teach took out mercury from his eyes and began to draw the magic circle again.

Tichy did not answer Nickel's fearful question; a dying man has no need to waste time answering.

Once the training array was completed, an emerald was activated, and a burst of fluorescence lit up the area.

Nicol was thus broken down in the midst of the violent struggle, coalescing into a black-green gem: [As expected of an elite wizard from the Ministry of Magic, the black magic in the gem actually accounts for more than half of it]. After carefully storing this high-quality gem, Teach began the cleanup work on the battlefield.

First, completely erase the formation, leaving no trace.

Then the bullet casings are recovered.

As for the battlefield created by the explosives, Teach was powerless to do anything about it.

Just as Teach was picking up the spent cartridges, a loud bark rang out, clearly directed at him.

Teach looked up at the sound and saw a giant three or four meters tall emerge from behind a tree, holding a powerful homemade crossbow.

Rupert Hagrid walked briskly, taking over an hour to reach the crime scene. Keep in mind, the Dark Forest is vast, covering an entire mountain range.

Hagrid raised his crossbow and shouted at Teach, "Who are you? Are you a student of Hogwarts?"

It was late afternoon, and due to the dim light, Hagrid couldn't immediately make out Teach Carl's face.

Teach was startled by Hagrid's sudden arrival and wondered whether he should shoot this important character who appeared throughout the Harry Potter series. However, after hearing Hagrid's question, he changed his mind and replied, "Mr. Rubeus Hagrid, I am not a student of your Hogwarts."

As he spoke, Teach Carr moved to a spot with decent lighting and continued to Hagrid in a familiar manner, "Long time no see, Mr. Hagrid. I never imagined that our brief encounter in London would lead to us meeting here."

"How is that bespectacled little wizard who was with you back then? I imagine he must have been admitted to the greatest Hogwarts School in England. I wonder if I know which house he was sorted into?"

After recognizing Teach Carr's face, Hagrid recalled meeting Teach in London.

Then, through Teach's conversation and his friendly, curious questions about Harry Potter, he miraculously lowered his initial guard and smiled amicably, saying, "Yes, that little boy enrolled and was sorted into Brave Gryffindor."

"You know, I was so happy when Harry was sorted into Gryffindor. You know, I was a Gryffindor student myself."

Teach found it amusing. He was clearly a highly suspicious and dangerous person, yet Hagrid had so easily lowered his guard and dismissed his doubts about Hagrid's presence after just a few words of greeting.

However, the signs of battle left at the scene eventually caught Hagrid's attention, so Teach Carr took the initiative to explain: "Mr. Hagrid, I have been ordered by the Ministry of Magic to come here to track down a dangerous magical creature that has escaped from another country into Britain."

"That magical creature was very special; it would emit screams like a human to lure kind-hearted people, then capture and eat them."

"This evening, I tracked it down and fought it for three hundred rounds, but unfortunately, it cunningly escaped."

"I wonder if Mr. Hagrid encountered that magical creature on his way here?"

After saying that, Teach Carr produced the Ministry of Magic credentials he had looted from Nicol to prove his identity as an 'Auror'.

After a series of lies, Rupert Hagrid believed Teach and his doubts were instantly dispelled.

After a series of fabricated questions, Hagrid came to believe in the existence of this magical creature. Under Teach Carl's persistent questioning, he became somewhat flustered and hurriedly shook his head, saying, "No, if it were, my dog ​​named Tooth would have noticed and barked immediately."

Having received an answer, Teach looked at Hagrid with a 'skeptical' gaze, and then said regretfully, "Really...?"

"Since Mr. Hagrid hasn't encountered it, please go home as soon as possible. After all, that magical creature is really dangerous."

Under Teach's suspicious gaze and well-meaning urging, Hagrid, without a second thought, led Toothpick back the way he came.

Teach Carr watched Hagrid's figure disappear and finally couldn't help but lower his head and laugh out loud.

But after laughing, Teach had an important thing to do: cover up the lie.

It's actually very simple...

There is only one Ministry of Magic in the entire British magical community, which means there are many Auror staff members. It is impossible for so many staff members to know each other.

So after collecting the bullet casings, Teach used Blink to get to the edge of the 'Muggle Dispel Charm' and then stepped out.

Finally, he took out the mobile phone he had bought at great expense and called Corey Bab.

First, he inquired about his adoptive mother, Maggie, and then asked his uncle, Corey, to help him register a shell company called "Magic" with the British government.

With this shell company, Teach could use it to cover up his lies.

It's said to be a small, unknown department that was separated from the Department of Magic and hidden in the Muggle world.

Then capture an Auror wizard, threaten him, and force him to put the shell company's documents into the Ministry of Magic's database, thus perfectly covering up the lie.

After all, the history of the magical world is at least a thousand years old, so the Ministry of Magic, which is in charge of the law, must have been established for a considerable period of time, at least several hundred years.

In this database that has been accumulating for hundreds of years, who would bother to look through a thin document?
