A day at Hogwarts.

As time entered December, the weather around Hogwarts became more and more severe. The surroundings of the castle were often shrouded in snow. The two courses that people least want to take.

The corridors of the castle are cold and damp, the wind is blowing in through the loose window glass, people are in a hurry, no one wants to stay in the corridors, even the common room is cold, and the vacancy by the fireplace has become the most sought-after seat for everyone .

Albert had to put on a thick sweater, a scarf and gloves for himself, and put special warmers and hot drinks in his pockets.He very much suspected that the weather had become so bad because of the chain reaction caused by the large number of dementors operating around Hogwarts.

If anyone in the dormitory hated bad weather the most, it was Fred and George.

At the end of November, after the Ravenclaw team defeated the Hufflepuff team, it meant that the Gryffindor team still had a chance to win the game. Wood, who was in high spirits, reincarnated as a training madman and led his team Train hard in the snow.

After all, they can't afford to lose another game now.

The Weasley twins were also forced to hurry up and train in the bitterly cold wind and snow, and every time they returned from training, they looked particularly miserable.

Both Albert and Lee Jordan expressed deep sympathy for what happened to Fred and George.

Not joining the Quidditch team was indeed the most correct choice, otherwise he would have to go to the stadium with the twins to suffer.

Albert couldn't stand such a toss, and didn't waste so much energy on Quidditch training.He has a lot to do every week, busy with homework, busy with clubs, busy practicing magic, busy writing letters to people, and busy dating girlfriends.

There is no way, whether it is friendship or relationship, it takes time to maintain it.

Recently, he has other things to do.

Through Lee Jordan's father, Albert found an architect who was good at restoration work.

To be honest, this kind of profession is not welcomed by wizards in the magic world, and there are not many in the whole British magic world.

The number of wizards in the British wizarding world is very limited. Most of the wizard’s residences are inherited, while most of the Muggle wizards settled in the Muggle world. If they really need to build a new house, a large number of wizards will choose to build it manually. , the Weasley family is the best example.

After all, magic allows wizards to stack houses together like building blocks, building houses that don't conform to scientific structures at all.

However, there are always people who need a wizard to help build a house. Although it is rare, as long as there is a need, a corresponding profession will be born.

Inigo Jones is such a wizard, and it is worth mentioning that the architect is only a side job for him.

Albert asked the house elf Bit to come forward and reached an agreement with Inigo Jones to help him with the repair work of the house in Hogsmeade.

As for the cost, one hundred Galleons.

Yes, it's that cheap.

According to the house elves, the house has been carefully inspected, everything needed has been replaced with new ones, and magic has been used for secondary reinforcement. The whole house has basically changed except for the outer shell. Bit returned it to Abel I took several photos, and the result is quite satisfactory.

After the house elf reported the progress of the house's repairs and left, Isobel, who had stared at the house design for a long time, finally spoke.

"Sometimes, I really don't know what you want to do!"

"It can become our working place in the future. After graduation, you definitely don't want to stay at home all the time!" Albert poured himself a cup of hot tea, looked up at Isobel who was looking at the photo, and said with a smile, " There is a place to work, so it looks like a division of work."

He was indeed going to build a laboratory. After graduation, there would be no such good place as the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts. There must be a workshop for brewing potions and making magic items.

Moreover, in Hogsmeade, there is no need to worry about being warned by the Ministry of Magic for casting spells before adulthood.

Of course Isobel knew this, but she always felt that Albert's motives were impure.The other party seemed to intend to turn that house into a place for the two to date in the future.

After all, Albert will stay at Hogwarts for a few more years, while Isobel is working in Hogsmeade Village, so the two can meet often without being disturbed.

"It's a good place for a tryst." Isobel said softly, "Could you prepare other similar houses?"

"Hey, why do you always like to tease me about this, can't you put it another way?" Albert said rather helplessly, "If others hear it, they will think I'm a scumbag , the image has been ruined.”

"Isn't that your dream?"

"There is a gap between dream and reality. If it can be realized, it will not be called a dream." Albert sat down on the chair and sighed softly, "Also, my dream is not... No, I am a salted fish without dreams. Speaking of which, why do you always like to talk about this, can you tell me the reason? I can exchange this with you. "

Isobel smiled and pushed Albert's face away.

"Girls like to hear your gossip." Isobel changed the topic and said with a smile, "They like to ask about your little secrets."

"But you are my girlfriend." Albert said speechlessly: "Do you want your gossip news to spread to the whole school? Or, do you want everyone to know that we are engaged? , to make the other girls give up?"

"I see you've become narcissistic."

"It's not that I'm narcissistic, it's those girls who make me narcissistic."

Of course Albert knew that if the news got out, it would be no less than dropping a depth bomb into the black lake.

The couple relationship of young wizards is not as strong as imagined.

In Albert's eyes, that is "fast food love, assembly line feelings".

There are not a few couples who break up every semester at Hogwarts school. They are just like their college life in the previous life, free, free and easy, without restraint, they like to be together, and they don't like to break up every minute.

In the end, there are very few who can really come together.

Isobel always teases Albert about this incident, the main reason is that Albert is only easy to tease about this shitty thing, it is one of his few black history, and he reminds himself of this popular boyfriend by the way: I staring at you.

Albert knew more and more beautiful girls, and Isobel always felt that he had better grow up and be more vigilant, this had nothing to do with being jealous.

Although Isobel believes in the feelings of both parties, there are always exceptions.

Male and female friends get too close, let alone a pure friendship.

No matter how pure a relationship is, it will deteriorate over time.

Especially when someone said that he wanted to find two or three girlfriends, it aroused Isobel's vigilance.The main reason is Albert's mouth, many of what he said have become reality.

In the past, Isobel just used this incident to make fun of Albert, and she also knew that it was just a joke.

However, after she got to know Albert better, she felt that this matter had to be guarded against. God knows if this will come true.

Especially the current Albert, with the rapid increase in title and reputation, like a ripe fruit, it has become more and more attractive, making many people want to take a bite.

It would be fine if they were all strangers, but in fact, Albert knew more and more beautiful girls.

The French Miss Louise with Veela blood is a case. Isobel has no doubts at all. If Albert hadn't had her as a girlfriend, that Miss Louise would definitely not mind chasing him.

Isobel knew how Penello and Percy got together.

If Valeria and Albert had been together for a long time, Isobel had no doubts that the two would have a chat on the bed.

"What are you thinking about?" Albert refilled Isobel with a cup of hot tea.

"I wonder how many beautiful girls you know." Isobel took a sip from his teacup and said with a smile.

Albert felt the word "Danger" appear above his head.

"You should trust me." Albert said seriously.

"Of course I believe you, but I don't trust other girls." Isobel raised his hand and poked Albert's chest and complained: "Do you know that when the girls in the college talk about you, their faces show That expression... Being your girlfriend is more stressful than you think."

"Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen." Albert said softly.

He always felt that he had heard similar words somewhere.

"...It's so stressful to be your sister."

"Get through this semester and you'll graduate."

"Yeah, I'm finally graduating from school, and I actually came to help you before the important final wizard exam." Isobel asked with a smile, "How can you thank me?"

"I can satisfy you as much as I can."

Albert didn't mind telling dirty jokes in front of Isobel at all.

"You are like this in front of other girls." Isobel asked.

"Of course not." Albert changed the subject, "By the way, if you think you don't have enough time, we can use the Time Converter to go back in time."

"If you use that thing too much, it will accelerate the speed of aging." Although Isobel complained, he obviously didn't intend to refuse.

"Tell me, what are you going to do today?"

"Practice wandless spells."

"Haven't you already been able to use wandless magic skillfully?"

"That can only be regarded as barely usable."

Albert thought of many ways to deal with werewolves.

Wandless magic is the best backhand.

As for whether there will be a time to face the werewolf, Albert is not sure, but he feels that there is no harm in his early preparations.

It is better to be prepared than to be prepared for nothing.

Albert's idea is very simple. If there is a chance, use the spell to trap the werewolf directly, and then cast the recovery spell on the other party.

As for why it was trapped first instead of directly using the restore human form spell?

If the spell didn't work, wouldn't he just be finished?

Wolf disease will spread among people through saliva and blood contact, that is to say, if you are bitten, your life will be completely over, unless you can re-change your body like Voldemort.

Albert was quite satisfied with his appearance, and never thought of turning himself into a noseless monster.

If you can't trap the werewolf, you can use magic to protect yourself first, and then look for opportunities while ensuring your own safety.

Using a wand to cast a transfiguration spell to trap an enemy is actually not difficult, but without using a wand...

"The Transfiguration Spell is notoriously difficult. If you want to use it without a wand, the difficulty is very high." Isobel looked at the other two results. The legs of the table were restrained, and he could see that the spell was very rough. Pull and break.

It took Albert a long time to do this, and the difference with and without the wand is really big.

To be honest, this is already very astonishing. An ordinary sixth-year student, not to mention wandless magic, even a silent spell would feel like constipation for a long time.

"Regular practice should be able to do it. The wizards in Africa are very good at magic without wands. It is said that they rarely use wands."

Since Albert filled up the blood of wizards, his magical power should not be inferior to that of Voldemort and Dumbledore who were at their peak.

The gap with the two is more about the use of magic, and the age experience gap is a disadvantage that Albert is difficult to reverse.

"If you're just practicing wandless magic, you probably don't need my help."

Albert didn't hide anything, and told Isobel about Hagrid.He planned to use the Transfiguration Charm to conjure a Buckbeak. When the Ministry of Magic came, Hagrid would delay the spell and remove the spell, creating the illusion that Buckbeak had escaped.

Taking Buckbeak away is a reliable venture. Albert does not have the aura of Harry and Hermione as the protagonists, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to take Buckbeak away. If something goes wrong during the period, then It's embarrassing.

A restitution to solve the problem is obviously simpler.

The only problem was conjuring a Buckbeak that could be mistaken for the real one.

Both of them used the Transfiguration spell well. It is not impossible to use the Transfiguration spell to conjure a Hippogriff.

Albert needs Isobel to help him find problems and give him advice.

"You are really brave, but this is a good way. The question is whether you can successfully conjure a Hippogriff to hide it from others." Isobel couldn't help but marvel at the feat that Albert wanted to accomplish.

Honestly, it's hard, very hard.

"I will succeed."

This is a very advanced transformation technique, but it is not impossible for Albert. His transformation ability is not weak, not to mention that with the panel, everything is possible.

"I think when Professor McGonagall retires, Professor Dumbledore will definitely welcome you to be the professor of Transfiguration." Isobel sighed.

"I'm afraid your wish will be disappointed."

"Why?" Isobel asked in confusion.

"Professor Dumbledore can't wait until Professor McGonagall retires."

"That's right, he is very old, maybe he will retire first." Isobel's tone paused, trying to understand Albert's meaning.

"You predicted Dumbledore's death?"

"Well, I saw the Dark Mark floating above Hogwarts, I saw Principal Dumbledore fall to his death from the castle, and I saw Harry Potter crying." Albert sighed.

Isobel suddenly understood why Albert was under pressure.
