As Keresis said, a person who uses black magic does not have to be a dark wizard.
Many decent wizards have more or less studied black magic, and only on the basis of in-depth understanding can they conduct accurate defenses. This is also the essence of Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts course.
The courses of the lower grades have not yet been revealed. In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class after passing the ordinary wizard level exam, the senior students will be required to use relevant black magic books as a reference.
As for a veteran Auror like Moody, he is a master of black magic himself.
He even knows more than many dark wizards. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you defeat your opponent.
Let's not talk about the criteria for making a black wizard, but just talk about black magic itself.
For a long time, restrictive dark arts have always belonged to the gray area defined by the wizarding world.
These magics have strong lethality and are not suitable for being mastered by wizards.
But they themselves are not that evil, and they don't distort the user's mind and life essence.
The Ministry of Magic maintains a cautious attitude towards this type of magic, strictly controlling its random use and spread.
But they wouldn't take someone to Azkaban just because he used it.
The most obvious examples are the three spells of out-of-body, legilimency, and forgetfulness. They are all common magics that act on the human soul, and they all belong to the category of black magic according to classification.
But according to the different degree of harm, its nature is not the same.
The first is the Imperius Curse. To use the soul out of body, you must have evil thoughts. This evil spell will affect the user's own mind, and no matter whether there is a normal reason or not, it should not control other people's bodies.
Therefore, it is listed as one of the Unforgivable Curses, the most evil form of black magic, and is completely forbidden.
As for Legilimency, this spell helps the user read another person's mind to access their emotions and memories.
Both Dumbledore and Voldemort are masters who are proficient in this magic. You must be careful when talking with them. If you don't pay attention, the secrets hidden in your head may be known by the other party at any time, and they can be seen clearly by the other party.
This magic and Veritaserum are strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic, but Ivan can be sure that Dumbledore certainly did not take the restrictions of the Ministry of Magic seriously. Before he mastered Occlumency, he would use it every time he talked to himself this spell.
Even after learning Occlumency, you have to be careful every time you talk, for fear of being caught by the other party.
There are too many secrets in Aiwen's head, some of which he wants the other party to know, and some of which must be forbidden.
This is also the main reason why, once something happened, he was unwilling to go to Dumbledore.
Of course, in many things, in order to hone Ivan and Harry, Dumbledore would not take care of them. For example, when the basilisk was raging in the castle, he must know the secret room, but in the end he only sent his own phoenix to help them.
Unlike out-of-body, Legilimency does not produce a noticeable shadow on the soul of the user or the victim.
This spell is not that evil, so it's not completely forbidden black magic, but restrictive black magic.
Not to mention forgetting everything, its function is to make people lose memory, it can be a specific memory or all memories, because this process is reversible through the memory spell, the damage is minimal, so there is no limit.
After passing the Ordinary Wizarding Level examination, young wizards will learn how to use this spell in Charms class.
Of course, there might be permission to use the Oblivion Charm on other people, or they would be hunted down.
One of the employment requirements for employees of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters of the Ministry of Magic is that they must be proficient in "forget everything".
The main responsibilities of the three departments below it: Reversal of Occasional Events Team, Memory Cancellation Command and Muggle Issues Mediation Committee are to constantly modify the memories of Muggles to make them forget the magic they saw by accident.
The use of restricted black magic by the two students can be big or small, and they won't be punished if they don't cause obvious losses. Karkaroff knew this, so he didn't go into it.
What's more, at its root, the black magic used by Ron was taught by Krum.
If Ron is guilty, Krum can't get away with it either.
And everyone knows that Durmstrang has been teaching and encouraging students to learn the black arts.
Among them, there are not only restricted black magic, but it is extremely disadvantageous for them to really investigate.
Everyone was unwilling to pursue the matter further, and Professor McGonagall did not impose any punishment on Ivan and Ron here. She just locked them up for a day of confinement symbolically, and added fifty points to Ivan as a reward for his performance just now. .
"Those two spells you used were excellent, Mr. Mason, and saved a lot of lives!" said Professor McGonagall, with a smile on his face.
It is already a high praise for such words to come out of her mouth.
Ivan noticed that her right hand on his shoulder was trembling slightly. He performed very well in the Transfiguration class, but Professor McGonagall just nodded every time, saying at most that it was not bad, and rarely giving "very good." "This kind of comment.
Of course, the points that should be added are never less, and Professor McGonagall is such a style.
"Especially the move to repel the fire dragon, it's beautiful and crisp, Ivan!" Sirius also said happily.
Except for Snape, Professor McGonagall, Sirius and Keresis did not leave with the referees.
"Keep going, Mason!" Keresis said, in a tone characteristic of Moody.
He was also more interested in Aiwen's performance, and the magic eye kept jumping in the eye socket.
The only unhappy person in the tent now was Ron, who looked squirmed and not recovering from the blow.
This competition was originally a good opportunity to help him regain his courage, but unfortunately this kind of thing happened suddenly, which immediately suppressed Ron's newly raised courage and confidence. worried.
"Okay, Ron, don't take it to heart!" Ivan sighed and patted Ron on the shoulder, "It's nothing to use that spell, just like Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall said, You did a great job just now!"
"But I used black magic?!" Ron turned his head and looked at Ivan with strange eyes.
"That's a restrictive spell, it's not forbidden." Ivan said, and briefly explained to Ron, "In short, believe me, there's nothing wrong with it. You defeated the fire dragon to get the golden egg, and you got Good score, you should be happy." (.).
