Hogwarts Homecoming

Today is still a school day. Professor McGonagall and the others cannot devote all their time to promoting the efficient learning spell method developed by Amosta. In the office, there are only guys who have nothing urgent to do, Amosta. Star and Dumbledore were sitting on the sofa, discussing in front of the parchment on the table.

"The basic idea is that we need to design a brand new alchemy prop with a constant magic attached to it that can peel off the little wizard's spirit and put it into the virtual spiritual space. For this, we can partially refer to the mechanism of the soul-stealing curse. --"

Amosta bit his quill, thinking, and said,

"Of course, the core of the machine is that it is necessary to design a magic corridor that can accommodate the memories or thoughts of the professors. Only in this way can it play a guiding role."

"We can learn from some of the ideas of the Pensieve. In addition -"

Dumbledore glanced at Amosta's eyes, "This kind of alchemy tool consumes a huge amount of magic power. There must be an efficient way to absorb and store magic power to give this machine magic power-"

Amosta nodded, and he added many more structures to the densely packed magic nodes on the parchment, which were as dreamy as stars. After completing this action, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned and said,

"It is very difficult. It has to take into account so many aspects. The final designed magic pattern array will be quite complex, and so many structures must be compatible with each other. This is not something that can be completed in a day or two. But no matter what, It is possible to complete it. I have to go to the library to find some information and bring it back--"

There is no doubt that Amosta and Dumbledore are able to achieve what they are today. Their interest and focus on magic itself is unquestionable. Before they knew it, the sun had set on the top of the mountains, and bursts of cheers could be heard from the field outside. Laughter, that was the sound of the little wizards having fun on the field after a day of classes.

"I can take some time to help design part of the texture—"

Dumbledore waved his wand and got himself a delicious drink. Here in Amosta, he would never serve anyone other than green tea.

"Want to go to the Great Hall for dinner together, Amosta?"

Dumbledore greeted warmly,

"This is not something that can be done in the short term—"

"I plan to go to the library to find some books first--"

Amosta is still thinking deeply about the results of this afternoon. I have to say that this is a very interesting topic, and it is also very meaningful.

Dumbledore could only shake his head helplessly. He was holding his own honey water and was about to get up and leave, but Amosta suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, principal——"

Amosta suddenly raised his head and called Dumbledore. Facing Dumbledore's curious gaze, he pondered for a few seconds and said slowly,

"I just remembered something. Do you remember my conversation the night before school started?"

Dumbledore looked a little surprised, obviously not expecting Amosta to suddenly mention that conversation, but his expression quickly returned to normal.

"If you mean the thing about getting Hogwarts to secede from the school board, of course I remember it. What, do you have any new ideas, Amosta?"

"That's it-"

Amosta nodded. He looked at Dumbledore who was sitting on the sofa again and said softly, "We plan to have the school board take the initiative to cut off financial support for Hogwarts, and then ban those people through the Ministry of Magic." Follow Voldemort's family's industries wholeheartedly, and through operations, turn those industries into school industries. But the connection may take time, and Hogwarts still needs to reserve some funds--"

The light in Dumbledore's blue eyes flickered. He knew that Amosta suddenly mentioned this matter for no reason. He sat back on the sofa and asked calmly,

"What do you think, Amosta?"

"Before, I planned to ask the Malfoy family to contribute part of their wealth. This guy has too many levers in my hands. I think he will cooperate-"

Looking at Dumbledore with his brows condensed, Amosta smiled.

"But now I have a new idea -" Amosta tapped the parchment on the table.

"oh--"

Dumbledore opened his eyes slightly and said with a hint of surprise,

"Do you think this alchemy machine can help the school save some funds?"

"That's for sure. Once this kind of alchemy tool is released, it will definitely attract the attention of the world -" Amosta said with a smile.

"Hogwarts is recognized as one of the seven best wizarding schools in the world, and whether it is you, me, or Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, all have achieved certain academic achievements. I bet , as long as through some simple publicity, individuals, families or organizations willing to purchase this extremely practical alchemy tool will definitely flock here."

Looking at Dumbledore in deep thought, Amosta continued,

"This kind of... let's call it a learning machine. We don't have to sell it very expensively, but we can use another way to obtain a steady stream of income for Hogwarts. For example, we can enter the "Standards" into the machine. The experience of all spells from level one to level four of Spells. Then, sign a contract with the person who purchased it. The more the reward, the greater the authority the user will gain. He can use the learning machine to learn more spells. Of course, this kind of permission has a time limit. If you want to renew it, you have to renew it--"

Ignoring Dumbledore's twitching mouth, Amosta said enthusiastically,

"Not only standard spells, but the same is true for transfiguration, or some special spells, such as the Patronus Charm. We imprint the experience of these spells into the machine. If you want to learn these special spells, you must Part of the Galleons received as extra payment belongs to the professor who contributed his experience, and the rest, of course, must be allowed to Remus to start a company, and all the funds will go through the company's accounts. There is no need to expose the company's relationship with Hogwarts before severing ties with the school board--"

When Dumbledore left, his face turned a little dark.

No matter how up-to-date his ideas are, compared with Amosta, they will always be a little behind the times, because Amosta has the vision of two societies, the Muggle world and the wizarding world. Moreover, the Muggle society he belonged to had more avant-garde ideas than the current British society.

Dumbledore only made one request, that is, students at Hogwarts do not need to pay extra when enjoying this convenience.

This is of course, Amosta would never go out of his way to make money from the students in this school.

"By the way, principal——"

The two of them separated at the corner platform of the corridor on the third floor. Dumbledore was going to have dinner in the auditorium. After all, he even delayed lunch in order to discuss this matter, while Amosta was going to the library to look for information. Before they parted, Amosta called out to Dumbledore again,

"Neville Longbottom is Harry's classmate. You must know something about him. I vaguely remember the Longbottom family."

"Mr. Longbottom's parents suffered greatly during the last war."

Dumbledore paused and said in a heavy voice, "They are still being treated at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Maladies."

"Is it the Cruciatus Curse?"

Amosta narrowed his eyes.

"Before the war was completely over, some Death Eaters captured Mr. Longbottom's parents and brutally tortured them in order to find out where Tom was. Just like what you introduced to the little wizards in Alastor's class Like that, what they suffered was the most powerful Cruciatus Curse——"

Dumbledore was well aware of Amosta's words in Moody's Defense Against the Dark Arts class. He sighed deeply, and his bright blue eyes turned dim.

"According to your theory, the spiritual worlds of Amosta, Frank and Alice have been destroyed to pieces, their spirits have become abnormal, and they need the care of others all year round to survive -"

"That's it"

Amosta narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to be deep in thought.

"Amosta--"

Dumbledore stared at Amosta and said cautiously

"I have also tried to cure Frank and Alice, but the damage caused by that magic, I must admit, I can't do anything. As you can see, this matter has brought a very big blow to Mr. Longbottom. So, if you don't Completely sure, I hope you won’t give hope to that child easily--"
