Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 259 Hermione and the First Heart

In fact, Ivan was not less frightened than Malfoy. He didn't expect to unleash this black magic, let alone succeed.

This dark magic that attacks the soul is very deep and complex and requires a strong magic power and a deep magic theory as the foundation.

At Ivan's level, he didn't think he could give it away.

Even if he succeeds unintentionally, it means that Ivan's strength has really improved a lot lately, but he doesn't feel happy at all.

He walked back to the Gryffindor Public Lounge, no matter who talked to him.

He sat alone on the sofa in front of the fireplace for a long time and kept thinking about it.

Thinking about the consequences of that black magic, Ivan realized his inner fear.

He kept questioning himself, knowing that there would be such a result, why had he studied the dark magic?

Under the current circumstances, does he not know whether he should continue his research as he does now?

Continue, he may hold powerful power, but he cannot be assured that he will not get lost in it and become an evil dark wizard like Voldemort.

The temptation of power is sometimes really hard to choose from.

Maybe he should change his mind...

In the middle of the night, Gryffindor Public Lounge was empty except for Ivan.

He looked at the fireplace jumping in the fireplace and sat there alone and stunned.

Suddenly, a footstep rang on the stairs and someone came out of the bedroom.

Ivan turned around and saw Hermione in her pink pajamas coming towards him.

“How come you haven't slept?” He asked surprised.

“I'm worried about you. What happened?” Hermione sat on the sofa next to Evan and said with dismay, "You look unusual tonight, and when I just said good night to you, you just nodded. ”

“I was thinking about things and I didn't hear your voice.” Ivan explained.

“Thinking about what?” Hermione moved closer.

She stared closely at Evan, her brown eyes glittering in charming light under the candlelight.

Ivan was slightly disoriented when he saw Hermione's beautiful, intelligent eyes.

It took him exactly three seconds to recover.

Ivan is too familiar with Hermione, he knows what he must have noticed, and she won't stop until she explains herself clearly.

He hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Hermione everything.

While the study of black magic is taboo and should be done alone, Ivan does not want Hermione to be hidden.

He believed in Hermione, not to mention he wanted to hear from him.

“I just met Malfoy at the stairs, and they're going to ambush me!” Ivan hesitated to say, "Don't worry, Hermione, I'm fine. I repelled them with a magic that was a... dark magic, very deep, very complex, and also very evil, and I didn't think I would succeed in unleashing it! ”

“Black magic?!” Hermione looked up at Evan with dismay.

“You know, I've been working on magic lately, and all I've been working on are dark magic books from the Black Family Collection.” Ivan said with a hard scalp, noting the increasingly surprising look on Hermione's face.

“My God, are you studying black magic?!” Hermione can't believe it, "I can't believe it. How could you do that? This is wrong, the book says that black magic is very evil, only black wizards can...”

“It's always good to know more about black magic in order to improve your strength and face the dark wizards and uncertain future.” Ivan's voice was getting smaller and weaker, and he looked at Hermione with a pleading glance.

“You mean, you don't learn these black magic to use them, or to use that knowledge to do something bad, but to better understand? ”

“That's right, that's it!” Even Ivan himself finds this reason somewhat confusing.

Believe it or not, that's what he really thinks.

Evan was not prepared to learn and master these dark magics from the beginning, and his research was not aimed at using them.

He did not want to be an evil dark wizard, perhaps because of preconceptions, and Ivan had always had a deep prejudice and great vigilance towards dark magic.

But as an important part of magic, dark magic is indispensable. In order to become a powerful wizard, it is an essential part of the study of dark magic, which can be better dealt with only through a deeper understanding of dark magic, which is also the teaching philosophy that Hogwarts has always adhered to in his Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson.

But there is no denying that dark magic is too powerful and too easy to come by.

As research progresses, it is inevitable that it will be tempted and tested.

Faced with these temptations, many people fail to hold onto their minds and end up lost in them.

“If it's just research, understanding, I don't think it's a problem.” Hermione said with concern, "But after all, it's black magic. You have to be careful! ”

“I know, in fact, what happened this evening has led me to discover that the recent study of magic has entered a misunderstanding, which is very dangerous, and I am reflecting on it.” Ivan explained, "But I don't know what to do, I've been hesitating...”

“Don't put too much pressure on yourself.” Hermione weighed Evan carefully for a long time, suddenly reaching out and holding Evan tightly and slowly, “I once said," Whatever happens, I always believed you. Evan, promise me you won't let me down, okay? ”

“I promise you, I won't let you down.” Ivan nodded and answered with the utmost seriousness, "Thank you Hermione, thank you for your continued willingness to believe me! ”

When I saw Hermione in front of me, Ivan finally made up his mind.

On the comfortable sofa in front of the Griffindor common lounge fireplace, the two chatted for a long time until the second half of the night before Hermione went back to bed.

When he was alone again, Ivan took out his most recent research note and threw it into the furnace fire, watching it burn to ashes.

Since the study of dark magic was inevitable and could not be abandoned, Ivan decided to change his research strategy. On the basis of these dark magic, he intends to deepen his strength by analyzing the principles, structure and many theories involved in magic, and by studying ways to resist them.

In doing so, magic research is several times more difficult than before.

But the gains were much smaller, and Ivan's strength couldn't be improved quickly, but he didn't regret it, and as promised, he didn't want Hermione to be disappointed.

In Ivan's impression, Dumbley had been involved in black magic many years earlier, and he might have faced the same choice.

He eventually paid a painful price and his sister lost her life as a result of which he repented and awakened.

This is the regret of Dumbledore's life, after which he has fought against dark magic.

Ivan reminded himself not to repeat the mistake, to cherish it after losing it, like Dumbledore, or to become a puppet of power, like Voldemort.

For Hermione's sake, for his own sake, he must remain vigilant and not relaxed.
