Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 13 Magic Perception and Meditation

Mike lay on the bed in the dormitory with his eyes open. The Fire Curse that Professor Flitwick had shown him before had shocked him so much that he didn't even know how he got out of the office and returned to his dormitory.

Magic can do that!It's ridiculous that he thought that releasing magic was as simple as waving a wand and chanting a spell, but now that he thinks about it, he is completely a frog in a well.

Today he saw the power of magic for the first time, and finally understood the pride of wizards.

Just imagine, how could a group of "supermen" who waved their wands and released spells comparable to the power of heavy artillery, treat them equally when facing a group of "mortals" who had no talent and looked like ants.

Mike even felt that it was a miracle that human beings were not slaved or killed by wizards before nuclear weapons were manufactured.

The wizards at that time faced the Muggles just like the Americans faced the local aborigines when they opened up the American continent, and they were not at the same level in terms of strength.

And the fate of those natives is believed to be clear to everyone, they were almost killed to the point of extinction.

You must know that Flitwick releases purple flames. Mike remembers that his master once told him when he was a "cook" that the red and orange flames have a temperature of about 3000 degrees, and they are also the flames we usually come into contact with the most.

And as the temperature of the flame increases, its color will also change, until finally it becomes ultraviolet rays invisible to the naked eye.At that level of flame, at least tens of thousands of degrees of high temperature.

Although Mike doesn't know the exact temperature of the purple flame, it must be above 3000 degrees. A flame of this temperature can melt steel almost instantly.

A mere Flame Curse can do this, so what about the even more terrifying Fierce Fire Curse?It will almost never be extinguished without using the cracking spell, and the devil's flame is getting stronger and stronger. Under certain circumstances, its destructive power is comparable to that of nuclear weapons!

Mike longs for this power!

Compared with this kind of great power, my original ideal: to become a master of others.It's worth nothing.

Thinking of this, Mike was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep.

But Mike had no idea what Flitwick was talking about meditating and feeling the magic flow.

The first is to feel the magic flow.

Professor Flitwick's meaning should be to let him feel the flow of magic power during the process of releasing magic, but Mike always waved his wand when releasing magic, and the spell was successful as soon as he said it, and he never felt any magic power.

Mike felt that he might not have noticed when he cast the spell, so he released a fluorescent flash, but as before, he didn't feel anything.

Now Mike is a bit of a Muggle. Regarding the increase in magic power, according to what Professor Flitwick said, he must be able to completely control his own magic power, but Mike can't even feel his own magic power. How can he control it?
After a few more experiments, Mike released almost all the magic he knew, but the result was still disappointing.

Apart from exhausting himself enough, he didn't even feel the slightest so-called magic power. Gradually, Mike began to doubt his talent.

Perceiving magic power may be a kind of talent, just like he was born very lucky, people without talent will not be able to perceive magic power no matter how hard they try.

But Mike didn't give up. He, Mike, was so lucky that he could be reborn even if he was beaten to death. If feeling magic really requires talent, then he must have this talent.

After all, luck really can do whatever it wants.

Unbelievably, Mike began to search his memory carefully, trying to find the so-called magic power in the past spell-casting process.

As the memory was opened little by little, Mike once again confirmed that he had never felt the so-called magic power in the process of releasing the spell. Just as he was scratching his hair frantically, he suddenly thought.

It doesn't have to be when casting a spell!
Compared with the formulaic release of magic with the help of spells and wands, the supernatural phenomena caused by the explosion of magic power are not caused by any external force, so is the fluctuation of magic power easier to be detected when the magic power explodes?

Mike immediately remembered his most recent burst of magic, the one at the Leaky Cauldron.

Although Mike was very angry that time and wanted to kill the wizard, he vaguely remembered that a force seemed to be released from his body at that time, and that feeling was like running water!
Mike, who found hope, almost immediately wanted to experiment with a magic burst, but reason stopped him. If the magic burst in the dormitory, he would definitely be in big trouble.

You must know that Professor Flitwick had clearly warned him not to experiment with magic in the dormitory. Although Professor Flitwick's tone at the time was a bit like a joke, Mike didn't think it was a joke.

The teachers prefer students with excellent grades and obedience, and they only got into trouble with Flitwick during the day, and that night they ignored his warning and caused a big explosion in the dormitory.

This will undoubtedly cause Flitwick's dissatisfaction.

Let’s wait for the experiment later, Mike has an excellent location for the experiment: the Response Room!
Mike, who restrained himself, decided to go to the Room of Requirement for experiments tomorrow. Although finding the Room of Requirement so quickly might attract the attention of the old bee, Dumbledore, time waits for no one.

As he grows older, magic riots become less and less, and the original Mike even needs to actively suppress his emotions to ensure that magic riots do not happen.

And in so many days after entering Hogwarts, even if Mike let go of his restraint on emotions, and even used emotion casting skills, he didn't trigger a single magic riot.

At this time, Mike doubted whether he could still trigger the magic riot.

But all this has to be known through experiments.

After deciding on tomorrow's itinerary, Mike began to think about another key word that Professor Flitwick said: meditation.

Mike didn't know anything about meditation, he hadn't even heard the word for the first time until today.

No!He remembered!He had heard the word meditation once, from his wife, Amanda.

He remembered that his wife was very obsessed with yoga for a while. During that time, except for cuckolding her with her damn yoga instructor, she sat cross-legged on a yoga mat and didn't move. When Mike asked her, she answered that she was meditating.

Is meditation just sitting cross-legged and eyes closed?

Mike sat on the bed imitating Amanda's original appearance in his memory, but it didn't take long for him to feel sleepy.

His head with short blond hair moved little by little in the air, and finally, with a heavy nod, Mike fell asleep.
