Did wizards discover more tricks to magic?
Not at all.
They still had no wands and chanted no incantations.
From an external perspective, they had gained nothing.
So what exactly did wizards do to make magic gradually beco a tool they could control, their most convenient weapon?
It was order.
Order established within the heart.
If a wizard possessed no external skills yet could still unleash powerful ancient magic, then his willpower must be incredibly strong.
Such will was not the will of anger, nor the will of cruelty, but the will of control.
The forr had already proven its frailty; if wizards relied solely on their anger to release unstable magic, the entire wizarding race might have been ruled by goblins.
Thus, the answer was quite clear.
It was the latter. The wise individuals among wizards discovered that the power of magic lay not only in extre emotions but also in the emotion of order.
If a wizard could leverage the power of magic once without relying on extre emotions, then he could do it a second ti.
If he could do it a second ti, then there would be a third, a fourth...
If he could succeed consistently, then he would co to believe in himself. And when a wizard firmly believed he could do sothing, true magic was born.
Wizards established a powerful force of order within their own hearts, and thus, the world had to abide by the wizard's order.
This was why Ravenclaw frankly stated: Wizards are gods.
This explained the origin of even more ancient wizarding magic. In Ravenclaw's view, this was an extrely easy thing to understand.
But only now did Sean figure it out.
[Chaos], [Blindness], [Order], [Wisdom]...
The quill scratched across the parchnt, recording Sean's thoughts in his notebook.
From the very beginning, magic was obscure, sotis working and sotis not. Recalling Ravenclaw's mories, Sean nad the initial era [Chaos].
Later, wizards discovered they could always use magic under certain special conditions—what is now known as accidental magic.
This was the first magical law discovered by wizards, just like how Harry could shatter glass when angry, or Neville could apparate when panicked.
At this ti, wizards discovered that magic would appear in extre situations. They blindly pursued extre emotions to release magic... In Ravenclaw's mories, wizards of this era were incredibly mad, and their deaths were varied and bizarre.
Thus, Sean nad this pre-barbaric period [Blindness].
About ten or more centuries ago, the wise among wizards, perhaps unwilling to beco powder kegs ready to explode at a touch, or perhaps unwilling to beco cruel, savage, cold-blooded creatures, began to study the laws of magic and use it under controlled conditions.
As they gradually mastered their emotions and behaviors, and received positive feedback from successful magic, true magic that could be controlled by wizards was born.
In this era, wizards used magic in accordance with the order within their hearts, and faith also began to take embryonic form at this ti.
So Sean nad this period of arduous struggle for wizards [Order].
Finally, wizards created wands and discovered the external laws of magic—spells.
Wisdom began to influence wizards' magical power. Wizards at this ti could rely not on the emotional power of the "Blindness" era, but draw the necessary "Order" directly from external history.
It was roughly like, "Wizards in the past could release magic in this way, so I can too"...
Wizards no longer needed to establish "Order" internally; instead, through the weight of magical history, they believed their magical power could be realized.
In addition, correct incantations that reduced the resistance to releasing magic and wands that could channel magical power gave wizards imnse assistance. At this ti, wizarding wisdom gradually ford, shifting from establishing inner order to a holistic exploration of magic as a tangible force.
Ritual magic, faith... gradually ford within wisdom.
Thus, Sean nad this history of flourishing wizarding magic [Wisdom].
At the end of the parchnt, Sean uncertainly wrote down a word:
[God].
Then erased it.
If a wizard had unwavering faith in his own magical power, and even everyone else firmly believed in his power; if a wizard established incredibly powerful and profound ritual magic...
Could he then define the entire world?
Must the world revolve according to his will?
Should such a wizard be called... a God...
Shaking his head, Sean shook such thoughts out of his mind.
These were all his summaries; perhaps there were still many flaws or even errors that hadn't been discovered.
After all, these were just his feelings and personal opinions.
...
"Astounding, simply astounding. Is this why you ca to see ?
"Oh, my dear Mr. Green, I sense there are still many details you haven't fleshed out, correct?"
Dumbledore held a yellowed piece of parchnt as if holding a treasure map.
He murmured an exclamation of wonder and cast a gratified look at Sean.
"You believe my conjecture is correct?"
Sean asked curiously.
"Not entirely. Wizarding history is too ancient; it is difficult for us to verify.
"But that is exactly what we must do. If you can find enough evidence to support your theory, this will be the most gifted theory in the history of magic.
"This would be an incredibly valuable endeavor, far surpassing the History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot.
"I will add quietly..."
Dumbledore winked kindly.
"I believe this is very likely correct.
"But evidence, dear Mr. Green, you need to find concrete evidence. It is hidden within the Hogwarts library...
"Ah, I have read most of those books, so I can know that you are likely correct, but you cannot expect every wizard to be like , can you?"
Sean nodded, and Dumbledore looked even more pleased.
"Tea ti—I have always believed sweets can put us in a better mood."
Dumbledore directed a cup of lemon tea with a lethal amount of sugar cubes to float in front of Sean, then watched with interest as the young wizard took out several large tos—he seed to have already started working on this.
"What do you plan to na it?"
Dumbledore asked with a smile.
"Hmm... Chronicle of Wizarding Magic?"
Sean thought for a mont.
"A straightforward and correct title."
Dumbledore nodded.
"However, Professor..."
Sean suddenly said.
"I didn't co to see you about this."
Dumbledore's smile froze for a mont. As if anticipating sothing, he slowly asked:
"Then it is..."
