v2 Chapter 334: Ai Wens Magic History Exam (Mid-Autumn Festival plus more) (1/2)
Unlike the first completion of the Metamorphosis exam, the subsequent magic history exam, Ai Wen is the last one.
He wrote it for two and a half hours. At the end of the day, the little wizards in the whole class were watching him with a stunned look. Even the professor of ghosts Bins was very surprised.
They don't know why Avon can write so much, which is beyond imagination.
The normal exam content can be completed in an hour, but the last essay on the burning of witches in the fourteenth century caused interest in Irving.
In the last summer vacation, he and Harry discussed this aspect.
Recently, many magical studies that have been handed down in the Middle Ages have given him a deeper understanding of this aspect.
Generally speaking, the magic world generally believes that burning witches is meaningless behavior.
In the Middle Ages, Muggles were particularly afraid of magic and witchcraft.
But they are not good at recognizing magic. They only occasionally catch a wizard or a witch. At this time, the incineration did not receive any effect.
When the witch or the witch is burned, it will display a basic magic that freezes the flame, enjoying the gentle itching pleasure of the flame, and screaming while pretending to be painful. The fortune-teller, Wendlin, liked to be burned. He once let himself be caught in various forms of makeup, which was as many as forty-seven times.
The above is the original words in the History of Magic written by the magic historian Bashida Bassat, and it also represents the views of the vast majority of people.
As long as this content is written on the test paper, Ai Wen can get a perfect score.
But through recent research, he believes that Basart's argument is very one-sided.
The witch-hunting behavior dominated by the Holy See is not as simple as the imagination of the magic world. Aiwen thinks this is a conspiracy.
After the demise of the Western Roman Empire, the whole of Europe entered the darkest Middle Ages.
Humanity is degraded, morality is broken, productivity is developing slowly, and Muggles’ fear of the unknown and fear of witchcraft have reached the limit of history.
In the past, the sacred ancient empire split into multiple countries, and the magical forces split, and a large number of heretical magic about ancient warlocks and wizards were spread in Europe.
The perennial melee between Muggles also makes magic, especially black magic, develop rapidly. Among them, the demon spells that explore the eternal life of the dead spirits and the newly emerging black wizards with the traditional Holy See wizards are the fastest.
According to the clues that are currently preserved, the two types of magic have in common that they require a large number of human souls or bodies as the basis for casting.
Especially the souls and bodies of underage women, they are the best method of casting.
As mentioned before, the witch-hunting incident that broke out in this case did not actually kill many real wizards, but the Muggle women suffered a large area of persecution.
The campaign lasted for hundreds of years and eventually evolved into a terrorist act. Many Muggle girls, known as witches, were sent to religious trial courts.
They were sentenced to death, but the soul and the body were secretly collected by the black wizard.
The ironic, out-of-control witch-hunting action can't hurt the real adult wizards, but it has caused the underage wizards who have just awakened to the catastrophe. Many Muggle-born children have just shown magical talents, and they are cruelly killed by their loved ones. Muggles call this the power of the devil.
This made the number of wizards who were scarce, less and less, and finally died.
