In addition to Hogwarts Headmaster, Dumbledore also held positions such as president of the International Confederation of Wizards and Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot.

When he returned from Africa, a whole host of official business followed.

Dumbledore extremely busy during that period, almost like a student who hadn't finished his homework before school started.

After he finished these things, the copy of the mural he brought from Africa gradually faded from his memory until he finally remembered it while chatting with Wizet in the Hospital Wing.

"What do those murals tell us?" Dumbledore interest.

He was actually quite curious about the contents of the mural copy.

It's better to be safe than sorry. If we can master the methods in the mural copies, we can lend a helping hand in time if we encounter Obscurus again in the future, thus preventing a tragedy from happening.

"Mr. Scamander once told me that African Wizards call the Obscurus a 'curse of hatred,' and the Obscurial is the 'host of the curse,'" Wizet said.

"The reason for the Obscurus is quite simple: a young wizard who can cast spells but hates magic will attract the Obscurus's attention by suppressing his magical talent."

"Hatred is a negative emotion, and the content in the mural copy is actually related to it. It is a very ancient Obliviation Charm Ritual Magic."

"Compared to a regular Obliviation Charm, casting Obliviation Charm through Ritual Magic can greatly enhance its power, achieving the goal of stripping away the Obscurus's Obliviation Charm."

"A very interesting idea," Dumbledore praised. "The wisdom of the ancient wizards is worthy of awe and study."

"Ritual Magic is really fascinating," Wizet agreed. "To perform Ritual Magic to strip away hatred, you also need a Magical Plants. Headmaster Dumbledore, would you like to guess?"

"Judging from your expression, it should be a Magical Plants I've encountered before..." Dumbledore said lightly, his fingers interlaced. "Is it the tuber of Mandrake?"

"Yes, Headmaster Dumbledore." Wizet. "Using the cry of the Mandrake root as a medium, the effect of Ritual Magic is amplified, thereby completing the stripping of the Obscurus."

"However, this method also has drawbacks. One of the most obvious ones, as recorded in the murals, is that the Obscurial will lose their talent for casting magic, just like Squib."

"In addition, the older the Obscurial is, the greater the variables they will face when using this method, just like the Sudan children Mr. Scamander mentioned..."

Dumbledore sighed, popped a Fizzing Whizbees into his mouth, and said, "That is indeed a regrettable thing..."

Wizet continued, "So in the fresco copy, a second method is also recorded... using 'love' as a guide to awaken the Obscurial and free them from the erosion of the Obscurus."

"This method also has its limitations," Dumbledore sighed again. "The older you get... the more variables you face."

Wizet, his tone becoming somewhat lower, "So I am lucky to have your help and to have the recognition of so many professors."

The two remained silent for a while.

Dumbledore handed Wizet a box of Chocolate Frog. "These are all the results of your hard work... I think your inspiration comes from methods related to 'love,' don't you think?"

Wizet exhaled, her tone Reparo. "Yes, it requires the Patronus Charm... Professor Snape taught me that."

Dumbledore nodded knowingly. "Severus? His Patronus Charm is quite special."

"Expecto Patronum!" Wizet raised his wand and drew a circle in front of him.

He intentionally controlled the range of the Patronus Charm, limiting it to a mere fist-sized area of silver light.

A warm feeling spread from the silver light, making even the Headmaster's Office much warmer.

Dumbledore a soft breath, feeling more at peace.

Even Phoenix Fawkes was somewhat tempted, letting out a long, melodious cry, its eyes shining with newfound brilliance.

Wizet waved his wand, and a fist-sized silver light flew up and disappeared into his body.

"'Love' is a powerful force, but my Obscurus is different... It is more peaceful and can be guided by the Patronus Charm..."

A fist-sized ray of silver light emerged from his chest, intertwined with a cloud of pure black mist.

The black and white wands swam back and forth like yin and yang fish, slowly returning to the tip of Wizet's wand.

"The use of the Obliviation Charm in the first set of Ritual Magic also gave me a lot of inspiration..."

"Since the Obscurus can be separated through the Obliviation Charm, it is also possible to maintain the connection between the Obscurial and the Obscurus by using the Counter-Curse to Obliviation."

As Wizet spoke, she changed the way she waved her wand, casting Counter-Curse to Obliviation, "Suspended Incantation!"

A wisp of black mist was separated, and Wizet used Ancient Magic: Throwing Mastery to guide it with Ancient Magic Power, capturing the black mist and placing it into the amethyst.

The black mist danced merrily within the amethyst, like Dirigible Plums encountering moonlight.

"Supported by the Obliviation Charm?" Dumbledore's tone became even more curious, as he vaguely sensed something. "What kind of principle is this?"

"This is a little trick I learned from Professor Lockhart," Wizet said. "Headmaster Dumbledore, you should know about seesaws, right?"

Dumbledore nodded. "An interesting entertainment facility that I've experienced."

Upon hearing this, Wizet's eyes widened, and then he recalled the comment in "The 《Metamorphic Transfiguration Theory》," which suddenly made sense.

He cleared his throat and returned to the main topic, "Whether it's the Obliviation Charm or its Counter-Curse, you can think of its principle as a seesaw, and finding the 'fulcrum' is very important."

"When casting the ' Counter-Curse,' you can find an emotion that resonates with you and use it as a 'fulcrum' to 'lever' those forgotten memories."

He pointed to the black mist inside the amethyst, "As long as I don't complete the 'prying' step, the Obscurus will not be completely stripped away."

"I can use this emotion as a bond to resonate with the Obscurus, thereby maintaining this connection."

"It seems Lockhart has given you quite a bit of inspiration." Dumbledore stroked his beard, his tone revealing satisfaction.

Wizet remained noncommittal, clearing her throat as she said, "He's a rather... special professor."

"Indeed very special..." Dumbledore looked at Wizet with a smile on his face, "It is not an easy thing to learn real skills from him."

"I know a few friends who are suffering from amnesia... Wizet, can you help them find their past memories?"

"Find their past memories?" Wizet blinked. "They lost their memories because of the Obliviation Charm?"
