After making up his mind, Jon stopped thinking about Cedric. After all, Cedric would only start school next year. There were still five years before Cedric's death, so there was no need to rush.
He casually flipped through the book "Where Are Fantastic Animals?" that he took out from his ring. He had flipped through this book during the holidays, so it was perfect for him to read in his free time. After all, he had always liked books on this topic. The author of this book, Newt Scamander, was also someone he had heard of before.
After all, a student of Hufflepuff who was expelled from Hogwarts was also quite legendary.
After skimming through the description of the Basilisk, Jon skipped this page. The Basilisk came from the book "The Chamber of Secrets." At that time, Jon was already in his third year, so he didn't have to think about it now.
Cedric was very interested in this new student who was flipping through "Fantastic Animals", but he was forced to chat with Béla, so he couldn't talk to Jon. Most importantly, he always felt that this new student looked at him with an inexplicable sense of pity.
The feeling of being looked at like that was really uncomfortable.
But from what he heard, this new student named Jon would be coming to Hufflepuff, then there should be a lot of opportunities to talk in the future … right?!
"Oh right, Senior Béla, did you hear? The new head of the magic department this year is actually Connelly Fudge. I heard that he writes to Dumbledore every month. Maybe we can see Fudge's owl when we get to school? "
Cedric tried to start a topic that Jon might be interested in, but only Béla's interest was piqued.
The things he said all sounded very important. If it were some minor things, Jon might have raised his head. However, he had read about these major things in the original work, so he knew more about the secrets behind them than these students.
The train set off very quickly. From the station to Hogwarts, it would take from eleven o 'clock until nightfall. Originally, Jon had prepared a bunch of things to do to pass the time, but with Cedric in the carriage, it was not easy to do those things.
"It would be great if he could enter school next year. With a savior on the train, who would pay attention to a nameless and quiet little Wizard?"
The train soon drove into the fields. The suburbs of England were similar to what he remembered, with endless barren grass.
Jon thought silently. He took out a pair of earplugs from his pocket and stuffed them into his ears to block out Cedric and Béla's laughter. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't learned how to cast it yet, he really wanted to cast an earplugs spell on himself.
He sat cross-legged in his seat, looked at the scenery outside the window, and closed his eyes.
In any case, Béla would buy her own food later when she was hungry, so he didn't need to worry.
What was the point of taking a train instead of sleeping?
In the past, every time Jon took a train, the only activity he could do was to sleep. This was because his eyes would hurt if he played with his phone for a long time, but now he had a new activity.
In the past ten days, he buried himself in magic books and found many ways to improve his magic power.
In Hogwarts, the way to improve the little Wizard's magic power was to let the Wizard's magic power grow naturally through continuous practice. This method was reliable, but the results were too slow. Therefore, Hogwarts tested the students' learning results through tests, unlike the tests in Eastern fantasy novels.
Jon felt that this kind of training method was inefficient. To be precise, it was not compatible with him.
Just like how ordinary people without magic developed technology, the essence of practicing magic was to strengthen oneself. If he followed the training method of Hogwarts, how long would it take for him to reach the level of a great magician?
Harry Potter still had to receive special training from the professors!
Therefore, after sifting through more than ten sets of books that were forbidden to the student Wizard by the Ministry of Magic, Jon found several suitable "training" methods for him at the current stage.
"The Law of Meditation" written by a Wizard named Sri Lanka, "The Wizard's Theory of Blood Activation" written by Salazar Slytherin, one of the founders of Hogwarts, and "The Chemistry of Magic" written by a lady named Helena.
These books were explicitly forbidden to the student Wizard, and each of them had its own unique advantages. One of the similarities was that the training methods recorded in these books were, without exception, difficult.
Difficult was right, and difficult proved useful!
Jon had never been a person who was afraid of difficulties. People who had experienced college entrance examinations and postgraduate studies would never find anything difficult.
Wasn't it just solving problems? This was Jon's strength!
After days and nights of endless study, Jon, who was now sitting on the train pretending to sleep, had practiced Sri Lanka's meditation method to the beginner level. He could already feel the constantly drifting magic elements in the air and tried to attract them into his body.
The Wizard's magic was hidden in his blood and body, and through the guidance of the brain, which was the soul, it became powerful magic. The magic elements in the air were the basic conditions for the Wizard to perform magic.
It was like the energy of heaven and earth, or the existence of Gaia's consciousness.
What the meditation method gave Jon was a rather intuitive feeling of the whole world. In Greenwich, Jon felt the prosperity of the human world and the fog above London. Here, he felt the hard rocks and the clear air, with a strong natural atmosphere.
What a sweet and free air!
(Note: I don't know if the air in England is as sweet as the air in America, because I haven't been there and haven't seen the interview, so don't take it too seriously.)
Jon greedily absorbed the magic energy in the air. In fact, he didn't know what level his magic had reached, but it was still within his control.
As long as it was not out of control, there was no risk of becoming mute. When he got to Hogwarts, he began to study Potionology and strive to create the only potion recorded in the Wizard's Theory of Blood Activation, which was 27 pages long, the Blood Purification Potion.
The reason why such a dangerous potion could still be published was because it belonged to the research of a pure-blood legendary mage, and the pure-blood families that controlled the magic world had selfish motives. Secondly, it was because the Potioneering Society in the magic world had confirmed that the feasibility of this potion was too low. Some of the rare ingredients had been completely extinct with the passage of time, and the remaining ingredients were extremely expensive.
It was probably the kind of expensive ingredients that could be exchanged for 30 Smith family vaults.
However, there was a primeval forest in Hogwarts. In the Forbidden Forest, precious materials could be found everywhere. Even if they couldn't find the real deal, they could still find substitutes. Even if the effects were weaker, it didn't matter.
Thinking about the possible adventure in Hogwarts, Jon's meditation effect improved a lot.
