Ashes of Hogwarts

"Lord Ashes, I can see that you really like Hermione as a child."

In the middle of the ship, the fireproof girl and Ash were chatting.

The scenery at night is very good, and coupled with the quiet flowing water of the Thames River, it adds a different artistic conception.

"I do like her very much, you have to know, Illya," Ash looked at the dark night sky and murmured to himself: "Although we can feel light and heat now, and can touch cold and warmth, We look just like ordinary humans, but we are different after all.”

"In the end, my roots are still the fireless ash. This will not change no matter how powerful I am. And how can the fireless ash have descendants?"

Yes, this was one of the reasons why Ash accepted Hermione as his goddaughter. Although Hermione was very popular with Ash and the fireproof girl, it was not to the point of accepting her as his goddaughter.

But in the final analysis, Ashes also needs relatives in his almost eternal life.

The Christmas holidays pass quickly.

During this period, Ash did not go back to school. He took the fireproof girl to have fun in the Muggle world for a few days.

I have to say that although London in the 90s was still far from what it was before Ash traveled through time, it still had everything it needed.

Cinemas, karaoke bars, and dazzling facilities dazzled the fire prevention girl.

Another thing that must be mentioned is the collapse of the former Soviet Union, which happened on the second day of Christmas.Ash specially took the Fireproof Girl to see this major event that changed the world.

To be honest, it's not interesting.

After returning to school, Ash set off to find Dumbledore.

Animagus - This is the magic that Ash is going to practice.

This magic, which only a few people in the entire wizarding world have mastered, aroused Ash's interest.

"Honestly, Ash, I've seen your Patronus, and I think you should know that Animagus cannot transform into magical creatures."

In the library, Dumbledore pulled out a thick book from a pile of books, raising a puff of dust.

He handed the book to Ash.

"Of course I know, but you also know that I am different."

Ash looked up and down at the leather book cover. It was obviously an ancient book and could fetch a good price if sold as an antique.

Dumbledore's patronus is the Phoenix, so he didn't become an Animagus.Magical creatures and ordinary creatures exist on two different dimensions. Even someone as powerful as Dumbledore would not dare to break this rule.

But Ash's mentality is very stable. For him, even if some weird changes happen, he can force himself back.

"Animagus training method

Step [-]: Hold a single mandrake leaf in your mouth continuously for an entire month without any breaks. "

This matter is not that difficult for Ash. After all, he doesn't need to eat if possible, so the probability of swallowing mandrake leaves by mistake is much smaller.When sleeping, you only need to enter a deep sleep state, and there will be no such movements as clenching your teeth and swallowing.

But Ash repeated the first step several times.

There is no way, he is a teacher after all, he must speak in class, sometimes he swallows it down his throat accidentally.

"It's really difficult." Ash reluctantly put another leaf in his mouth.He now carries a small bag with him so he can start over again at any time.

Rarely, after asking Mr. Granger to make a brace for himself, this first step was finally successful a month later.

Step Two - Take out the leaf during the full moon and soak it in a bottle filled with your own saliva so that it can receive the pure moonlight. (If the clouds gather that night, you have to find a new mandrake blade and start all over again.)

It's certainly not a full moon, but that doesn't make a difference.With a simple apparation, Ash came to a country covered by moonlight.

In the crystal bottle facing the moonlight, I added a piece of my own hair and a small spoonful of dew from Snape.Ash couldn't help but sigh, what would he do if this was a bald man.

Finally, add a pupa of the Grimace Hawkmoth.

What happens next will be left to time and luck.

Place the potion in a quiet, dark place and do not look at it or disturb it until the next thunderstorm.

All you need to do is ask for such a small room from the Room of Requirement. Although there are many places that can meet the requirements, you are afraid that the curious Gryffindor will dig it out at some point.

Step [-] - While waiting for the storm to come, point the tip of the wand to your heart every sunrise and sunset, and then recite a very embarrassing spell "Amado, Animo, Animado, Animo" Mags.”

You know, unless Ash is teaching or looking cool, his spellcasting is always silent.This led to several times when Hermione went to find her godfather and saw him posing in a strange posture and speaking plausibly, as if he had joined some kind of cult.

The wait for a storm to arrive can be weeks, months or even years.

During this time, the crystal vial must remain completely undisturbed and out of contact with the sun.Sun pollution will cause the worst mutations.

If you continue to chant the spell repeatedly at sunrise and sunset, you will come to a point when the tip of the wand touches your chest and you will feel a second heartbeat, sometimes stronger than the original heartbeat, sometimes weaker.Everything must remain as usual without change.The mantra must be recited the correct number of times without missing a beat.

This second heartbeat is the heartbeat of your Animagus.

This feeling came quickly, almost on the third day.

The surging heartbeat almost made Ash scream. He hadn't felt such a rhythmic beat in how many years.

At this moment, Ash felt as if he, the Ash Man, had truly been reborn as a human being.

And the strange thing is that this rhythm never stops, as if it was already in this body.

The storm came later than Ash expected, and it was not until a month and a half later that Hogwarts experienced its first real thunderstorm.

When the violent wind and rain mixed with lightning and thunder came, Ash was giving lessons to the third grade wizards with a calm expression.

Decisively, he called Snape to take over. Ash left the training ground in a daze, leaving the little wizards looking confused in the rain.

In the Room of Requirement, Dumbledore and the Fire Girl have arrived in advance. They must control the entire process of Ash's Animagus process to prevent any irreversible consequences.

Take out the magic potion from a corner. It has transformed into blood red and is enough to hold a mouthful.

Ash pointed the wand at his heart and chanted the curse he had been chanting for more than a month.

"Amado, Animo, Animado, Animagus."

Then, he raised his head and drank the blood-red potion.
