Chapter 256 254. Jon's concerns

Jon has been busy all this time on the ship.

In addition to absorbing all the magic words in the stone slab that Sir Stoke gave him as promised, he also took a lot of time to study the forbidden books stored in the second gem.

Because of the sufficient magic power, almost all the forbidden books have specific contents, which can be consulted by him anytime and anywhere.

For such a treasure trove of knowledge, Jon certainly will not sit on the mountain of treasures without entering.

Except for something on the ship that he must come forward, most of the time he stays in the library. In addition to reviewing these forbidden books, he is also trying to write out the books that are missing from the current Hogwarts.

But the reason why a forbidden book is a forbidden book is not only because the knowledge it records is taboo, but the existence of many books itself is a rare taboo in the magic world.

And this taboo is the premise of being able to carry forbidden knowledge, so many of Jon's attempts have failed, but he has not fallen behind in learning a new magic.

Compared with the vast amount of strange black magic in the forbidden book, John was not dazzled. He simply chose the three most famous and widely spread unforgivable curses in the magic world - the killing curse, the heart curse, and the imperius curse to start trying.

The unconventional magic may produce miraculous effects in some scenarios, but in most cases, the most practical ones are still these three unforgivable curses.

It perfectly contains the three effects required for killing enemies, torturing, and controlling, and there is no spell removal.

But learning black magic is not just as simple as overcoming its difficulty. When John was preparing to learn the God of Sharpness, he had already reported to Dumbledore that he was going to expand in the field of black magic.

This is indeed a matter of course. Almost all lethal offensive spells are related to black magic. If you want to learn, no wizard can avoid it.

Of course, the definition of a black wizard is not a wizard who has learned black magic, but a part of people who have studied black magic very deeply and cast curses at the slightest disagreement.

Dumbledore agreed to John's contact with the dark magic at that time, but also gave a warning.

John always kept his warning in mind. The side effect of subtly changing a person's concept is completely impossible to prevent.

Dark magic is basically based on violence and hurting people. The emotions required when releasing the spell are naturally violent and malicious.

It is precisely because of this form of casting that frequent use of dark magic will change a person.

Even if your original intention to hurt people is revenge, protection or other brighter purposes, it will not change the impact of emotions itself, otherwise the dark magic will not be used.

Because of this, John was particularly cautious when learning the three unforgivable curses. He let Nick accompany him throughout the whole process, so that he could observe whether there would be any special changes when he practiced and tried to release the spell.

But Nick was so cautious about him, but he felt that it was unnecessary.

"Dark magic is indeed worth being careful about, but there is no need to be so cautious, Jon."

After observing Jon's practice of the Unforgivable Curses for nearly a week without any significant results, Nick finally couldn't help but speak.

"We can think about it from another angle. Dark magic can affect a person's personality because when using them, the wizard's emotions are extremely negative. So when you use magic like the Patronus Charm, are your emotions extremely positive?"

Jon stopped practicing, listened to Nick's thoughts, and nodded thoughtfully.

Nick continued.

"Whether it is too negative or too positive emotions, it will have a great impact on the wizard's personality. But after you use the Patronus Charm, your personality becomes that kind of optimist, facing everything, you must first think about the good side, and you are full of hope for everything you encounter?"

Jon shook his head.

"Of course not."

"Yes, the Patronus Charm, as the most positive spell, can't bring you such a change, and the effect of the Unforgivable Curse is also not exaggerated."

Nick said very seriously.

"As long as you are a human, you can't be happy all the time. Even if a person behaves like a saint and never does anything bad, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have the thought of doing bad things in his heart. This is his negative emotion. It's just because people can control their instincts and thoughts that some people are more noble. The Patronus Charm allows you to vent the happiness in your heart, while the Unforgivable Curse allows you to express the resentment, malice, and anger in your heart in the form of magic."

"You don't have to hide it. It is also one of the most important emotions of a person. What you have to do is not to deny this emotion, but not to let it become all of your emotions. This is a degree of control, but the boundary of the degree will never be as easy to touch as you think."

"I have met many people. In history, many Hogwarts students have secretly read and learned various kinds of black magic in the library. The characteristics of those whose minds are affected by the darkness are very obvious. These people desire power and are addicted to it. The power of black magic makes them unable to extricate themselves. When they quarrel with others, encounter problems, and break the rules, the first thing they think of is to make themselves resentful and evil and use that powerful power."

"These people are real black wizards. Black magic and the emotions it represents have become everything in their lives. They have no self, no They are controlling magic, but magic is controlling them. "

"But you obviously won't do that, Jon. You have already learned the Shadowless Divine Sharpness. When you encounter any problem, the first thing that comes to your mind is to use this magic to solve the problem once and for all?"

"Since you have learned the Shadowless Divine Sharpness and you don't have such an idea, then what are you worried about the Unforgivable Curse? After you learned the Killing Curse, when you encounter all obstacles, will you immediately think of using the Killing Curse to solve them first? It will only be one of your means to solve problems, not the only one."

Nick looked at Jon affirmatively.

"So, be more confident in yourself, learn boldly, and mobilize your most angry and murderous emotions. This is what the Unforgivable Curse needs. This emotion cannot be everything to you, but it must have existed, right?"
