Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Combination Experiments

'Will' is something that you cannot specifically measure.

In the wizarding world, to cast any spell, 'will' or what you might call intent and emotion is necessary, and it is considered to be as significant as magic power in the process of casting a spell.

Just like the 3 D's of Apparition Charm -- Destination (target), Determination (resolve), and Deliberation (unhurried), all of these are actually the manifestation of will (intent).

The biggest difference between people is the gap in their mentalities. People who think that they can accomplish something absolutely have very different levels of determination than others.

In magic, this is reflected in a very straightforward way.

For example, in the case of the same spell, the strength of the 'will' would determine the power of that spell if the magic power, pronunciation and precision of wielding the wand are identical to one another.

Of course, other factors will also produce a difference, but it absolutely won't be as obvious to everyone as Will (intent).

Just as it was mentioned in the original story, the real dark wizards with dark hearts will never be able to learn the Patronus Charm, because there is no way for them to structure any good intention that is enough to cast that spell in their minds, so even if all other factors are present, they will not be able to learn this spell because of their mentality.

According to Slughorn, Jon's 'will' is far stronger than that of a normal wizard.

This is the reason why he could forcibly use the levitation charm that was supposed to fail.

But even if such a weak effect can be produced, it is simply useless, and the next thing Jon needs to do is to keep trying to find the right way to pronounce the incantation.

Because there is no previous precedent, there are no already countless times attempted the most accurate pronunciation for him to learn directly.

In this regard, even Slughorn can not help him, Jon can only rely on himself little by little with the exhaustive method to figure out.

The workload is actually not small, although it is just a single spell, the levitation charm has a total of eight notes, according to the short and long sound, there are nearly thousands of different combinations of high and low pitches, but if he devotes the rest of the week or so of holiday in it, he can basically get a rough pronunciation of incantation.

But before he officially began, he first went to Professor McGonagall's office and asked the Transfiguration professor a favour to transfigure up a weight scale for him.

Because his powerful 'will' assisted him to make even the wrong incantation work, he needed a more precise comparison to find out the difference.

In the following two days, Jon was completely cooped up in his dorm room, he prepared a large stack of parchment and started by changing the syllables of the first note of the spell, constantly changing the tone, the sound length, and then getting on the scale to observe the changes produced in his body.

Most mispronunciations of the incantations produced a barely detectable change, but you can detect it by the value visually reflected on the scale, which showed that Jon's weight was 500 grams to 1000 grams lighter than before the spell was cast.

This effect is certainly very unsatisfactory, will not provide him with even a little help, let alone make him fly in the air as he had previously expected it would, under the influence of the levitation charm.

This attempt went on until Neville and Ron returned to the wagon at the end of the holiday.

When Neville returned to his dorm room, he noticed that Jon had been chanting the incorrect levitation charm incantation over and over again all day, and then getting on the scale to measure his weight like a madman.

"What's wrong with you? Weren't you the first of us to learn the levitation charm? Why cannot you even recite the incantation now? And even if it's just a practice, you should be holding a wand, no?"

Neville looked at Jon worriedly, with a face full of doubt that he was under some kind of evil spell.

Jon did not expect that he would be able to hide the matter of practising the levitation charm, of course, he would not mention the ring and the spell-casting method, and Slughorn also taught him the Occlumency magic specifically to conceal this matter.

But as long as he explains to Neville that this is something that the professor taught him without explaining much, with Neville's current emotional intelligence, he will wisely refrain from asking further questions.

"Two kilograms, this is the most weight loss so far, but it is certainly still not much." Staring at the scale on the weight scale, Jon shook his head in disappointment and once again marked one of the pronounced combinations on the parchment with a wrong symbol, and then added the reduced weight.

After observing him do so many experiments, Neville can already see what he really wants to achieve at this point, and he cannot refrain from throwing a comment.

"I think the reason why you got that result is that you just went to the lavatory, there is actually no difference at all."

Thinking about his comment for a moment, Jon nodded his head, picked up the quill again and crossed out the weight marked next to the pronunciation combination, and wrote a value according to the estimated amount of excretion he had just defecated.

"But can you really succeed in such an attempt?" Neville couldn't help but say, "Don't you remember what Professor Flitwick said when we started to learn the levitation charm, this charm can't possibly affect the wizard due to the resistance from magic in our body, otherwise, there would be no such thing as a flying broom."

Jon did not answer his question directly, but simply shrugged his shoulders and said.

"I'll give it a try."

With that, he stared at the next set of incantation pronunciations written in advance on the parchment.

"Well, this time let's shorten the first three notes 'wing', 'gar' and 'dee'; then lengthen the remaining five notes 'um', 'leh', 'vee', 'oh', and 'sa' to try."

Neville simply sat on the edge of the bed and watched as Jon stood up and began to recite the incantation, still unable to resist muttering under his breath.

"Good, the pronunciation of levitation charm incantation is correct this time, even though it is exactly the other way around ( in the original Hermione taught Ron the correct pronunciation: wing-GAR-dee-um Leh-vee-OH-so), it would be strange if it would work."

Just as his words trailed off, Jon had pronounced the Incantation of the spell with unparalleled clarity.

"wing--gar--dee--um--leh--vee--oh--sa!"

The moment the incantation was pronounced, Jon perceived something special this time.

Magic had never been so visibly mobilized as when he was casting spells with his wand normally!

Without the wand as an outlet, the magic power moved from his body to the ring and then once again returned to his body after a transit.

The sudden feeling of lightness in his body almost made Jon stumble and lose his balance and fall to the ground, but fortunately, he held on to the desk immediately to regain his footing.

Neville also noticed Jon's abnormality, but at first, he did not think it was due to the success of Jon's experiment but looked at him suspiciously.

"You're not faking it, right?"

Jon's face showed an incomparable look of excitement, he did not speak and directly answered Neville with actual actions. With one hand propped up on the desk, he jumped upward with all his strength from his original spot.

"Boom!"

In the next second, his head hit the three-meter-high ceiling of the wagon solidly.
