Grindelwald's suggestion shocked Mo Fei.
"Stay away from Dark Magic?"
As the first-generation Dark Lord who is gradually becoming a consensus among wizards, his attitude towards Dark Magic is so cautious. This is something that Mo Fei cannot imagine at all. However, everything seems to be natural.
This first-generation Dark Lord has never been a murderous lunatic.
Even from a certain perspective, he is much calmer and more rational than Voldemort in the original work.
The wizard movement he launched was more to improve the overall level of wizards. In his eyes, wizards, as capable beings, should receive greater respect.
Therefore, in his base camp Germany, there are almost no resistance organizations.
In other words, there were almost no wizards who objected to his actions.
Even the wizards who occasionally had opinions chose to accept the general trend.
Therefore, Durmstrang's little wizards naturally accepted some of his ideas. For example, For the Greater Good's personal choices are acceptable.
And in order to imitate this powerful wizard, many young wizards spontaneously began to study Dark Magic.
This also makes it reasonable for this school to offer the Dark Magic course among the three magic schools in Europe.
Although Mo Fei doesn't know the specific details, you can understand this kind of thing after thinking about it.
But now, Grindelwald's advice to a young wizard he likes is not to come into contact with Dark Magic if he has no ability?
This sense of dislocation...
Tom still doesn't understand.
"Professor, didn't you say before that Dark Magic is a narrow definition? Even if it has many side effects, as long as you learn enough, you can maintain a balance. As long as this balance always exists, isn't that okay?"
I don't know why, but Tom still followed his intuition and asked this question.
Grindelwald did not blame him for asking everything, but started to explain.
"You haven't started learning magic yet. After you learn magic, the first lesson Professor Charms from Hogwarts will give you is to tell you that in order to achieve the effect of magic, emotions take up a lot of it..."
"And what I want to add is that emotions are not only responsible for this. It is not only the flame that ignites magic power, it is also affected by magic... The more you become proficient in a certain Charms, the greater the proportion of the emotion corresponding to that Charms will be in your soul..."
"In the Middle Ages, some of those wizards were unwilling to learn more Charms. Charms is a symbol of power, but their souls could not bear such a heavy burden..."
"Later, those powerful Charms gradually disappeared. In fact, there are also reasons for this..."
"Dark Magic are some of the most burdensome... the negative emotions they symbolize are never simple..."
"Let me give you an example..." He looked around and seemed to finally find the snake in the backyard.
With a wave of the magic wand, a venomous snake flew into the backyard.
"Among the current Wizarding World, there are three Unforgivable Curses. They are Cruciatus Curse used for torture, Imperius Curse used to control the body and soul, and Killing Curse used to directly destroy all life..."
Just mentioning the names of these three spells, there seemed to be some cold and terrifying atmosphere in the air.
"Of course, there are actually some equally dangerous Charmss, but compared with these three Charmss, the reason why they are not called unforgivable is that their side effects do not reach that extreme situation..."
"The core of Cruciatus Curse is the painful and twisted spiritual destruction. Imperius Curse relies on the arrogant desire to dominate. Killing Curse is very simple. It is the simplest and most direct killing and death..."
"As soon as these three Charms are used without the ability, extreme emotions will continue to breed and spread until you are swallowed up..."
"A madman who tortures his enemies and himself, an ambitious man who always wants to control everything, and an executioner with death in his eyes..."
"I think you don't want to end up like this..."
"However, if you have enough strength, they will become very good materials for you to study Dark Magic..."
Having said this, Grindelwald pointed the wand directly at the venomous snake that Tom had been raising for a while, "Cruciatus Curse!"
The tip of the wand flashed a light that was almost invisible to the naked eye.
The next second, the poisonous snake began to twist in pain, constantly entangled, kept breaking free, and then became entangled again.
During this process, it kept rubbing against the edge of the snake cage, seemingly intending to divert the pain in this way.
The moment Mo Fei saw it, he immediately covered Tom's eyes.
However, in the emergency, he forgot that snakes can talk, and Tom, who understood Parseltongue, could still hear the snake neighing unconsciously in pain.
The color on the child's face faded little by little, as if he was truly feeling the pain.
Mo Fei glared at Grindelwald, "Sir, your current behavior is a bit too much!"
"Passed?..."
The man just smiled and said, "This is just a normal enlightenment. Only when he realizes that this kind of power is uncontrollable can he really feel awe..."
However, Grindelwald seemed to be just a warning, and the torture only lasted a few seconds and then ended.
Mo Fei carefully removed the hand covering Tom's eyes. He first glanced at the snake in the snake cage.
Now the snake is just curled up in the snake cage without any movement. If its body was not still rising and falling regularly, Mo Fei even thought the snake was dead...
The color on Tom's face has not returned yet, and he has not recovered from the shock just now.
No matter how powerful he will be in the future, right now, he is just a child who is less than 7 years old...
For an ordinary person, he is still in the stage of having fun, how could he see such a huge impact.
Mo Fei is a little worried that his temperament will change drastically due to this impact, and he might become Dark Lord sooner.
Could it be that before he entered school, he became the heir of Dark Lord under the guidance of Grindelwald...
Was his original idea wrong...
Mo Fei couldn't help but have some self-doubt.
Grindelwald just watched Tom slowly recover, and then walked out of Mo Fei's arms.
He walked towards him firmly and said, "Professor, will the use of this Dark Magic have any impact on your own spirit? Also, as for the magic about snakes, is it related to Dark Magic... Will the future of Parseltongue have an inseparable relationship with Dark Magic?"
After he experienced the impact, he quickly thought of the reason why Grindelwald did this.
You know, from the beginning, Mo Fei told him that this professor was to help him gain magic enlightenment, and then further help him better awaken and use the power of Parseltongue.
Now that Dark Magic has been mentioned repeatedly, it's better to say it directly.
In the future, Parseltongue will have to deal with Dark Magic.
That's why he asked Tom to be wary of Dark Magic's existence now.
