After practising the spell on and off for the last few minutes Hooper turned and focused on the Professor once again to listen. He’d been too busy practising to really hear who’d asked the question but that didn’t really matter.
When using a spell like this, there were, of course, lots of different things to consider as the Professor mentioned. He however only really had to consider the situation. “I think the situation is the most important to consider, Professor. If you’ve got dark wizards chasing you and you’re fighting for your life or to save someone, why wouldn’t you use it? I know you could hurt the wizard but if it saves your life, it’s worth it.” In case the other students couldn’t tell, Hooper had done a lot of reading on this type of moral decision because he wanted to train to become an auror. “If someone is trying to hurt me, I’m going to use something to try and stop them but not hurt them no more than needed, of course,” because there was absolutely no excuse for hurting someone more than necessary. |
