"However," Newt's expression turned serious, "Experiments involving Magic Circuit remain dangerous. This isn't an ordinary magical experiment; it touches upon the most fundamental aspects of wizardry."

"You can rest assured about that," Lucien said. "I have a good assistant, an alchemical creation that combines Transfiguration with the ability to mimic other beings in both body and circuitry."

He was referring to the Protean Flesh Puppet - Modified," which, although a reward from the system loan, works in a similar way to his description.

He silently gave the system a thumbs up in his mind; at least this item saved him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Magical experiments performed on the human body, whether on wizards or Muggle, are generally classified as Dark Magic and labeled as taboo.

Many of the most infamous black wizards in history started by experimenting on human bodies and gradually went astray.

With the help of whimsical gadgets like the Protean Flesh Puppet, Lucien won't turn into a crazy wizard who goes around collecting "materials" for his experiments.

Upon hearing this explanation, Newt nodded without asking for further details.

He already had a good understanding of Lucien's expertise in Transfiguration and Alchemy, so it wouldn't be surprising if he wrote cutting-edge papers on Transfiguration, studied under Nicolas Flamel, and created some amazing creations.

"Regarding the circuit Transfiguration," Newt looked intently at Lucien, "Have you considered spreading it?"

Lucien shook his head. "I don't have that idea for now. I think we should be cautious about magic that's too risky. This is only a preliminary result and it's not yet ready for widespread application."

He paused, as if carefully choosing his next words, "And..."

"I have a vague feeling that if we continue exploring this path, perhaps one day Muggle will also be able to possess Magic Circuit."

This idea suddenly came to Lucien after he completed the circuit Transfiguration.

He can use Transfiguration to transform inanimate objects into Magical Creatures, creating temporary Magic Circuit for them.

Creating Magic Circuit from nothing to create a living being is a completely different concept—similar to the difference in difficulty between performing Transfiguration on an inanimate object and a living object in Transfiguration, but also worlds apart.

We can now create circuits for inanimate objects and modify circuits for living objects, which seems to offer a glimmer of hope for creating circuits for living objects.

However, that road is still a long way off.

For example, circuit Transfiguration is something Lucien can do to himself with ease, but this is probably related to the special shape of his own Magic Circuit, which seems to be naturally suited to the act of "Transfiguration".

As for using circuit Transfiguration on others, the difficulty would increase dramatically; otherwise, he could more easily correct and restore Nagini's circuits, which were distorted by the curse.

That might be a research project with no end in sight, but Lucien wasn't afraid, because he was still young and would live a long life...

Upon hearing Lucien's last words, Newt's eyes widened in horror.

He wasn't the kind of person who discriminated against Muggle, and he didn't think Muggle were unworthy of being like wizards.

He simply couldn't imagine the day when "Muggle could use magic" or "Muggle would all become wizards."

The conflict between wizards and Muggle has lasted for thousands of years, with countless clashes involving blood and fire.

Due to their respective historical backgrounds, even in today's relatively peaceful world, wizards from different regions have different attitudes toward Muggle: some remain friendly, some are hostile and hateful, and some remain indifferent...

The two most recent Wizarding World wars also revolved around the issue of the relationship between wizards and Muggle.

The idea of "turning Muggle into wizards" is "crazy," but it seems to have a possibility of being realized.

If Lucien were given more time and to delve deeper into his research, perhaps one day magic would truly become widespread throughout the world...

Newt looked at the boy in front of him, a complex emotion welling up inside him. He was glad that Lucien hadn't gone astray.

Otherwise, the mere fact that these ideas, along with the talent to turn them into reality, would bring more turmoil and harm to the world than those of dark wizards—including the two most famous ones of the last century.
