Chapter 9

After spending a few days at Hogwarts, Camille already has his own plan for mastering time.For example, if there are two classes in the morning, then she has to get up earlier.She didn't want to go through the experience of the first day of Potions class again, when she only had time to grab a sandwich from the table, and after two bites, she was hungry until twelve o'clock at noon.Fortunately, her potions class partner seemed to be very good at potions. On Friday, she was a little hungry and confused, but she saw clearly the potions class on Tuesday afternoon.The Slytherin named Sylvia used a different method from the book to deal with the cat's eye fruit, faster and better.

As for Sylvia being a Slytherin, who cares!Compared with blowing up the cauldron from time to time, some Gryffindors who can abruptly turn potions class into a blasting experiment; and those squeamish Slater who feel like touching a Flobber caterpillar will kill them Lin, Camille is quite satisfied with her potions class partner Sylvia.

Maybe today's Transfiguration class will be at her table?This thought floated through Camille's mind, but the food on the table quickly brought her back to her thoughts.Ah, that's great, there's steak for breakfast today!

After eating a lot of steaks for breakfast, Camille, who was in a rare happy mood, greeted Sylvia for the first time when Sylvia talked to herself and sat next to her, "Morning, Sylvia!"

This caused Sylvia to drop the transfiguration textbook on the table before she had time to put it on the table.

This strange Gryffindor girl who had taken two Potions classes with her without even hearing her say hello, looked angry at any moment, and felt ready to attack someone at any moment... What!Did you just say good morning to her? !Sylvia's gentle but insincere smile froze on her face, and she really didn't know what expression to put on.

Ignoring the frightened Sylvia and the nearby Slytherins and Gryffindors who looked like they had seen a ghost, Camille bent down to help Sylvia pick up the Transfiguration textbook and returned it to her.

"Why do you keep staring at me?" Probably because Sylvia beside her was frozen for too long, and YuriAcgn Camille, the finalist, was a little angry again.

Seeing that Camille seemed to be a little angry again, Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief, leaned closer, and asked carefully: "What's the matter with you today? You seem to be in a good mood? Why do you suddenly want to say good morning?"

"Is it strange to say good morning to you! Why am I in a good mood?" Camille replied bluntly, frowning, and the good mood after eating the steak disappeared.

It's fine that this woman with stiff facial muscles doesn't know her good heart, but she still looks at her like a ghost, is she such an unreasonable person!Obviously that woman is more unreasonable, okay?If you don't want to smile, don't put a smile on your face all day long. Don't you feel that the muscles in your face are stiff?snort!I am not afraid of becoming facial paralysis one day!Camille thought viciously in her heart, but the expression on her face didn't change at all, it was probably the usual Camille' I'm not happy, don't talk to me casually! ' standard expression.She is so polite that she won't say what she just thought!

After being answered unreasonably by Camille, Sylvia was not angry and just looked at the empty podium.

This is a peculiar girl, and Sylvia reaffirmed her previous point of view in her heart. As for why Camille is in a particularly good mood today, Sylvia really has no idea.

There were very few people that Sylvia couldn't see through at all, and most people, Muggles or wizards alike, were very see through.Adults generally like children who are well-behaved and smart from time to time. Of course, good-looking children have more advantages.

The situation of children is a little different. If we divide them by colleges, although Slytherins respect tradition and like powerful wizards, it is not difficult to see some fear in their eyes besides respect for very powerful wizards.The strong are also very popular in the eyes of Gryffindors, but if some innocuous 'creatives' are added from time to time, they will probably be the most influential figures in Gryffindor, such as Gryffindor's current Quidditch Odd team captain Charlie Weasley, and the Weasley twins also feel like they have potential at this point.Hufflepuffs, who are numerous but mostly mediocre in talent, are easy to get along with, and all they need to do is put on a smile and a soft voice to get them to like them.Ravenclaws are not complicated, and people with extensive knowledge and in-depth and unique insights into one or two fields can quickly integrate into their circle.

oh!And don't forget that being good-looking is also a big advantage among children.

Sylvia knew from a young age that she was one of the great-looking people, with her silver-gray hair sticking out amidst the boring black, brown and blond-brown hair of Britain, and her big, expressive silver-blue eyes It is also a unique charm that only belongs to her. There are no freckles on the snow-white skin, and the facial features are also of the cute and delicate type. Even though she is still young and looks cute, it is obvious that she is gradually becoming glamorous. direction development.

After learning how to properly control expressions and eyes, Sylvia gradually became very comfortable in the old Gryffindor couple's home.From being told by Dumbledore just now, when the old couple looked at her with some worries and fears on their faces, to complete trust and relaxation later.If she wanted to read a book, she would take her to Lihen Bookstore; if she wanted to try making potions, she would buy a bunch of materials for her.

Although the campus life after coming to Hogwarts has not yet been recognized by all the Slytherins, Sylvia knows very well that with her powerful strength and smooth handling, it is only a matter of time before she achieves this goal.And the students of other houses... With her patience, gentleness and non-judgmental performance, the Hufflepuff who cooperated with her in Herbology class would definitely welcome her; in Charms class, she followed the first successful cast Ravenclaw of the Levitating Curse also successfully cast it later, and the smart Ravenclaws must have seen her powerful and unassuming ability.It can be said that as long as there are students who have worked with her in class, there is no dislike for her...

Except for Camille... what a frustrating feeling... Sylvia could hardly keep her usual smile at the thought of this.On Camille, her proud 'mind reading' really doesn't work at all.This person is simply unbelievable, she seems to be angry every day, but her actions don't seem to be angry!It can be seen from the cooperation of the two potions classes that Camille has some talent for potions. When she handles materials, her thinking is orderly and her hands are stable and strong. Although she is a bit unstable when boiling potions, However, that may be due to some minor flaws in the control of the magic power when injecting the magic power into the potion, which obviously has nothing to do with her mood.

Just now she said she was in a good mood...why was she in a good mood...and now she seems to be in a bad mood again!Does this person have any logic at all!Sylvia's heart almost collapsed.

The class bell for the Transfiguration class didn’t take into account Sylvia’s inner breakdown, and it still rang on time. It was rare that the class bell rang but the professor didn’t come.Everyone in the classroom was rustling for a while, and just when the rustling discussion was about to become louder, the silver tabby cat that everyone thought was Professor McGonagall's pet sitting on the desk at some point Jumping down from the podium, in the blink of an eye, it was Professor McGonagall standing on the ground.

There was a burst of exclamation in the classroom.

"Transfiguration is the most complicated and dangerous course you can learn at Hogwarts." She didn't seem to be happy at all admiring the little wizards, and still said very seriously with a straight face, "Anyone If you want to be naughty in my class, I will ask him out. I warned you." She looked at the mischievous Gryffindor twins, and it was obvious that Professor McGonagall stared at the two brothers silently but seriously. Still a little influential, they shrank their necks, took out their notebooks and quills and ink, and finally remembered that they came to Hogwarts to study.

Unlike some teachers' prologues, McGonagall's prologue is an advanced Transfiguration demonstration in which she transforms her desk into a pig and then quickly transforms back again, plus the one before her class changes from a cat to a pig. All the students in the classroom were attracted by the human demonstration, wishing that they could become a transfiguration master right away.

Ideals are beautiful, but reality is always cruel.During Mag's explanation, they quickly understood that it would take a long time to turn furniture into animals, not to mention the spell that transformed cats into humans, which Mag didn't even mention.

After writing down three sheets of parchment full of notes, Mag distributed a match to each of them, and started the practical exercise of this lesson—turning a match into a needle.

For Transfiguration, Camille personally likes it very much. Apart from the fact that she keeps trying to prevent such changes when the werewolf transforms every month and requires the knowledge of Transfiguration, it is also probably because of her temporary guardian—that is, Professor McGonagall, among the books I gave her for the enlightenment of little wizards, only the "Transformation Book of Transfiguration" will transform itself from time to time to demonstrate some examples in the book, while other enlightenment books like spells or some Fairy tales in the wizarding world seemed terribly boring to her.

After all, who can read those long paragraphs of text after enduring the transformation of a werewolf every month, while still suffering from pain all over his body?Although the birds occasionally transformed into in "Transfiguration Book" look delicious, but they can't be eaten, but it's still a thought to look at, isn't it!

Camille looked at the matches on the table, and he didn't pick up his wand and poke at the matches impatiently like the students around him.She still remembered some of the content in the "Transfiguration Book of Transfiguration", and there were similar words in the author's preface of the first grade Transfiguration textbook.

"Transfiguration is a magic that can be performed well without strong magic power. We generally believe that imagination and firm belief are the decisive factors that affect the final effect of Transfiguration. Without these two factors, people with magical power will be What you can do when you encounter a boulder is to raise your wand and blow it to pieces, but for those wizards who not only have a wild imagination but also a strong will, how to deal with a boulder? Maybe you think of a room that can live Maybe a bridge that lets you cross a river would be nice too? Or maybe you want a sparkling gem... The world of possibilities is always possible in the eyes of shapeshifters!"

The first step is to observe the deformed object before performing the transformation.Camille carefully looked at her match, which was made of wood and one finger long. Although it was a very thin match, it was just for the concept of match.

The second step is to mentally simulate the appearance of the target you want to deform.It is a needle, so it should be made of metal, because it has been repeatedly polished, so it should have an extremely smooth metal surface, the length is as long as a match, and the most important thing is that it must have a very sharp end.

Camille finally drew out her wand, and waved her eyes intently...

"Although it's not perfect, 5 points for Gryffindor!" Professor McGonagall had obviously been paying attention to Camille from the very beginning, and gave her extra points as soon as she completed the transformation.

As Professor McGonagall made a pertinent assessment, what Camille had on the table was an unqualified needle. Although one end had become sharp, it didn’t gradually become sharp like a needle. On a sharp point.And if the whole 'needle' is judged by the standard of a needle, it is so thick that it can poke a hole out of a person.

But no matter what, Camille was still the first student in the class to make the match appear deformed.And it already has a smooth metal surface, reflecting the sunlight coming in from the window. Although the sharp end is very unnatural, at least it can be seen that it is a sharp end.

Sylvia was surprised.

Her magic power is strong, and she has a lot of experience in controlling power so far, which made her outstanding in the previous Potions and Charms classes, but Transfiguration seems to be a bit different.Sylvia had a bad feeling when listening to Professor McGonagall explaining the theory just now, imagination and firm will, what kind of requirements are these?Of course she can imagine what a needle looks like, so she's not really a strong-willed person?Sylvia didn't admit it at all.

When she was still thinking about it, Camille had succeeded, or half of it.Glancing at Camille's semi-finished product, Sylvia turned her gaze to Camille, and she froze.

The not very strong sunlight in the morning outside the window shone into the classroom and shone on Camille. Her black half-long hair almost reflected the temperature of the sun, and her yellow eyes showed a shining golden color in the sunlight. No one was watching her, just looking at the imperfect deformation on the table, the thick black eyebrows were slightly frowned, and the whole person looked calm and focused.

It took a while for Sylvia to come back to her senses, her eyes turned back to her desk, yes, she wasn't paying attention at all.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, she was completely quiet. The shape of a needle appeared in her mind more and more clearly. She could almost see a needle in the match. Looking like a metal needle, she raised her wand and waved it.

"Perfect, Miss Cassandra, 10 points for Slytherin."

It was a plain metal needle, and no one would notice it if it fell on the ground, but it was such a needle that finally gave Sylvia no reason to underestimate any magic.It's nice that magic is inherently powerful, but that's not the only path to brilliance.
