Wizarding Journey from Hogwarts

The eighth floor of the castle, this is the Hogwarts principal's office

At this time, Dumbledore was wandering around in the office, recalling the strange little wizard he had just met.

Thinking about it, he came to the pensieve, tapped his temple with the wand, and pulled out a fluorescent thread. This was the memory of the scene that had just happened in the auditorium.

A month ago, he arranged for Hagrid to guide Harry and retrieve the Sorcerer's Stone.

But at the same time, Hagrid also brought back news that Cecil, an elite Death Eater who had disappeared for ten years, appeared in Diagon Alley, bringing with him a child of the same age as Harry, a child with extraordinary talents.

When he met Jean in the auditorium a few days ago, Dumbledore understood that Hagrid's statement was not accurate.

I have seen many children with extraordinary talents, the most outstanding of whom is Tom Riddle.

But Tom is a very proud man, and he has been so since the first time I met him.

But when Dumbledore saw Jean, this child, it was as if he saw a miniature version of himself. He was extremely talented, had wise eyes, and had amazing powers of observation, but he was also very gentle.

But why would such a child be with Cecil?Although Cecil is not like other Death Eaters, he talks about blood all day long and likes to kill half-bloods and Muggles.

But he is still a Death Eater, there is no doubt about it, powerful, cruel, ruthless and fearless.

Dumbledore suddenly felt a little bad, but he couldn't think of the key point.

Tread~

The sound of footsteps behind him interrupted his thoughts.

"Severus, you're here." Dumbledore held the pensieve and did not turn around to look behind him.

"Headmaster!" Snape could guess what he was asking when he called him over.

Dumbledore turned around and said, "Jean Wardmod, do you have anything to tell me?"

Snape was silent because he wanted to say but couldn't.

"That's it, it's alright."

After Snape left, Dumbledore sat back in his chair. Although Snape didn't express anything, not even a look, he already had some guesses.

……

September 1991, 9, happened to be a Sunday

This means that tomorrow, Monday, students will officially start classes.

According to the class schedule, the first period of tomorrow's first-year Slytherin class is the Transfiguration class, which is held together with the Gryffindor students.

Early the next morning, after Jean and others finished washing, they left the lounge early and walked to the Transfiguration classroom on the second floor.

There are a total of 140 staircases in Hogwarts, and each one is changing at any time.

For freshmen who have just arrived at school, if they don't come out early, being late is almost inevitable.

For Slytherin and Hufflepuff students, taking Transfiguration, History of Magic and Muggle Studies classes is the easiest, because the classrooms for these three classes are on the second floor, and they only need to go to the first floor and walk up Just a big staircase.

But Gryffindor and Ravenclaw students have to work hard to get down from the tower and walk through complicated stairs to reach the second floor.

So in the first class, Harry and his little friend Ron got lost and were late.

As for the other little wizards in the classroom, they are all trying to remember what is on the blackboard.

Transfiguration is the one that Jean looks forward to the most, followed by Potions. Because Cecil is not good at these two subjects, he has not been taught much, so he only knows some basic forms now. Variety.

At this time, the blackboard is full of content. Transfiguration is the study of magic that changes the appearance and form of objects by changing their molecular structure. It is applicable to most objects.

This is an extremely precise and complex subject. If not performed properly, the object will be semi-deformed or even semi-permanently fixed in a certain form without recovery.

A qualified transfiguration spell requires that after the object is completely transformed, it can also be transformed back to its original shape through a counter-spell.

Secondly, substances or forms such as food and death are not within the scope of transfiguration and cannot be achieved through transfiguration.

Gene was happily copying notes. Everything Professor McGonagall taught in class was not included in the book.

"Next, we are going to have formal teaching. You need to remember that Transfiguration is the most complex and dangerous spell in your Hogwarts courses. Anyone who wants to be naughty in my class, I will ask If he goes out, he is never allowed to come in again, I have warned you."

After nearly two hours of theoretical knowledge explanation, Professor McGonagall officially started today's teaching practice. Feathers flew out from behind the podium and landed in front of each little wizard.

"Today's lesson, we are going to learn how to turn a feather into a needle."

"Everyone take out your wands and remember the key points you just remembered."

1. When performing transformation, it is very important to wave the wand firmly and decisively.Do not wiggle or turn the wand unnecessarily or the transformation will definitely fail.

2. Before using the transformation spell, clearly picture in your mind what you want the object to look like.

3. Beginners should pronounce the spell clearly, while advanced wizards do not need to say the spell loudly.

4. Incomplete deformation is difficult to correct, but it must still be attempted.Having a rabbit's head on top of your footstool is irresponsible and dangerous.Say 'Return to original form! 'Should restore the object or creature to its original state.

5. It is difficult for large creatures to transform, unless they are skilled and powerful wizards who understand their own limits.

After receiving Professor McGonagall's approval to cast spells, the little wizards began to try one after another, and the classroom was instantly noisy.

A few minutes later, several different "needles" appeared in the classroom.

According to Professor McGonagall's teachings, transformation should be done in one step. If there is a half-and-half situation, then it will definitely be a failed transformation.

But at this time, the classroom is almost full of this failed deformation.

"veraverto!"

When Professor McGonagall came to Hermione's side, the little witch successfully performed the transformation and turned the feather into a needle.

Professor McGonagall picked up the needle and looked at it carefully for a moment, then smiled, "Excellent Miss Granger, five points for Gryffindor."

The little girl immediately raised her head happily.

"Mr. Wardmod, why haven't you started yet?" McGonagall came to Gene's side and found him thinking about something.

"Professor McGonagall, how can I turn him into a little snake?"

Mag frowned slightly, "Maybe you should learn to turn it into a needle first."

Gene knew that she felt that she was too ambitious. He picked up the wand and waved it, and the feather floated and turned into a needle, and then turned into a ruler.

"Excellent silent spellcasting, and the transformation is also in place. Ten points for Slytherin. There are empty seats in my office, and I can provide a place for self-study in the evening."

All the students in the classroom cast envious glances, and Hermione was even a little dissatisfied.

"Jean!" After class, Harry stopped Gene who was about to leave, "We will be rivals from now on, and I won't lose!"

After that, he turned around and ran out of the classroom.

In fact, Harry was a little envious when he saw that Jean could transform silently, but after class, he was relieved to find that only Jean and Hermione in the two houses had succeeded.

Ron was a little curious, wondering how Harry knew a Slytherin student.

"He's my friend. We met in Diagon Alley. He's a great guy!"
