The next weeks until Christmas break flew by, Chazz was steadily getting better at magic he still blew off the homework he had been studying in the room and was getting pretty good at transfiguration and charm, he still sucked at DADA, but that had a lot to do with Quirrel being a terrible teacher. For Christmas Chazz had decided to stay at Hogwarts as his parents had a big medical convention in Prague. Harry was staying for obvious reasons and Ron had decided to stay as well. Ron had on fact managed to organize a large group to play wizard chess, Chazz on the other hand was taking bets on who would win and in the process raking in a large amount of money. Christmas itself was spectacular Harry got an invisibility cloak which Chazz could see so much potential for. Chazz had gotten a full surgical kit, a set of small remote control spy drones, and a chemistry text book from his parents. He had received the first as he had been talking with his parents about the application of magic in medicine and they wanted him to pursue it, the second because it was a new technology and he loved tech and the third because he was interested in bending if not breaking magical theory by applying science to it. He'd managed to create graphite out of a block of wood by imagining its chemical structure so he believed that he could create anything he knew the chemical composition of. Chazz had converted an empty class room into a lab of sorts and was working on breaking the laws of magic. The laws specifically were Gamp's laws of transfiguration.
1.)you can not create food.
2.) you can not transfigure or conjure objects to gold.
3.)you can not bring back the dead.
4.)difficulty increases exponentially with complexity
5.)wands, broomsticks, and other inherently magical objects.
Chazz had a plan to break each an every one. For food Chazz decided to use chemistry if food couldn't be created carbon, hydrogen, phosphorous, and oxygen could be created. Align them in the right way and you have glucose, or lipids or amino acids or even DNA all he had to do was know enough chemistry. Gold was trickier it was a pure substance so couldn't be tricked by dividing it into its parts so Chazz would summon lead of a specific isotope which would decay rather quickly into gold. For the dead Chazz had solved only one issue avarda kadarva as far as he could tell simply stopped the heart thus a jolt of alternating current to the AV node in the heart should theoretically revitalize the subject. With complexity Chazz would work like a 3D printer laying layer after layer instead of the whole object and well for magical objects he had no idea but he would break it he was sure of it.
The other half of the room not dedicated to lumps of pure elements, white boards with magical theory written on them, and chemistry equations drawn in chalk, was covered with muggle machines in pieces on desks. Chazz was also working on blending magic and technology for example he was working on a vacuum cleaner that vanished what it sucked up.
I am so sorry this chapter is abysmally short but life is hectic and I just can't write fast enough anyways I need ideas for magical theory, half magical half technological inventions and the like thanks so much-Azræl out
