Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 304 The Secret of the Twelve Certificates

  After class, Albert stayed on purposely, preparing to discuss with Professor McGonagall about choosing a new course. Seeing that Albert stayed, Katrina hesitated for a moment, and also stayed.

  Professor McGonagall was not too surprised that Albert wanted to take all the courses. Most students who study well will take all the courses and get twelve certificates in the O.W.L.s (Ordinary Wizarding Level Examination).

   There is no doubt that Albert has such strength, and he also has advantages.

  Professor McGonagall heard that Albert has good attainments in ancient runes, and he was born in a Muggle family, so he has a natural advantage in Muggle studies. The difficulty of taking all courses is much lower than other students.

   "Miss McDougal, are you going to take all the courses?" Professor McGonagall was not worried about Albert, but looked at Katrina next to her. She knew that Katrina was also a very talented wizard, and her sister Isobel was even more talented, but she was still a little worried about the other party's situation.

   "Yes, Professor McGonagall, I am also going to choose all." Katrina nodded and replied.

"You still have time to think about it, so there's no need to be in a hurry." Professor McGonagall looked at Katrina and kindly reminded: "Albert has his advantages in this regard, even if he takes all the courses, he won't be given too much money." There is a lot of pressure, but you are different, I have seen many students try to take all courses, and finally persist to the end, and there are not many wizards who have obtained twelve certificates."

   "Different from me?" Katrina was stunned when she heard this, as if she was thinking about the difference between the two sides.

   "Mr. Anderson, are you sure you want to choose all?" Professor McGonagall turned to look at Albert again.

   "Well, I asked other people and said that I want to apply for something to solve the problem of class time conflicts." Albert said nonsense.

   "I'm also going to choose all of them." Katrina looked at Albert with a complicated expression, nodded to Professor McGonagall, and said affirmatively: "I believe I can do it, and I can do it."

"All right."

  Professor McGonagall motioned for the two to follow her to the office.

"If you plan to take all the courses, you need to apply to the Ministry of Magic for a special time-turner." Professor McGonagall signaled the two to sit down, "Mr. Anderson is very good, I think the Ministry of Magic will definitely approve it, as for McDougall Miss, your grades are also very good, and the possibility of being approved is also very high."

   "Time Converter?" Albert narrowed his eyes and said softly, "I heard... there is a spell called the Hour Reversal Curse, which can make people go back to a few hours ago."

  Professor McGonagall opened his mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say.

  Katrina was a little dazed, but she also guessed what the so-called time-turner was.

   "Then you should know that the hourly reversal spell is a dangerous and unstable spell." Professor McGonagall's eyes became severe, and he stared at Albert with a sense of oppression.

   "Of course, I value my life." Albert shook his head. "It's impossible to joke about this, let alone risk my life."

   "You must keep this secret, never tell anyone about it, and never use the Time-Turner for anything other than study."

   "I promise." Albert said very simply.

   "I promise too."

"Well, in that case, I will write to the Ministry of Magic. Before that, let me tell you about the things you need to pay attention to when using the time converter." Professor McGonagall began to tell the two what serious violations of the time code would cause. disastrous consequences.

   "Actually, I saw a similar situation at Hogwarts." Albert suddenly said, "Both Isobel and Percy should have time converters!"

  Professor McGonagall was silent again after hearing the words.

"I have seen Percy appear in two places more than once. To be honest, based on what I know about Percy, it's hard to imagine that he would deliberately hang out in front of me." Albert said casually, "Later, I checked the information and found the Hour Reversal Curse. Of course, Percy would not use that kind of unsafe spell indiscriminately, so obviously there are other ways to go back to the past."

  Katrina was completely speechless, and she didn't expect that Albert could only see the problem from such a subtle matter.

   "If you found yourself suddenly appearing in front of you, what would you think?" Professor McGonagall asked suddenly.

   "Is that a fake? Or am I crazy," Katrina replied.

   "If I don't have a time converter..." Albert said without thinking, "I must suspect that someone has drunk the compound potion and turned into me."

   "Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall reminded with a frown, "Many witches and wizards have mistakenly killed their past or future selves. When using the Time Converter, you must be cautious."

"That's because they are too irritable." Albert curled his lips in disdain, "I think even if you really encounter yourself who reversed time and went back to the past, there are many ways to deal with it. It's best to put away the wand and fight with the other party. Say hello, say a code that only you know, and make sure the other party is not a fake."

   "Why is this person assigned to Gryffindor?"

  At this moment, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but have such thoughts in his brain.

"Mr. Anderson, this is not interesting at all. Time travel must be careful enough, otherwise it will cause very serious consequences." Professor McGonagall said weakly: "When the Ministry of Magic approves the use of time converters, it will strictly guarantee it Censorship. I must remind you that the Ministry of Magic has hundreds of laws surrounding the possession of Time-Turners, while imposing the harshest laws and penalties on Time-Turner abuse."

   "I will pay attention, Professor McGonagall." Albert said seriously, "I promise that I will never use it for anything other than study."

   "I hope you can remember your own words."

   "Of course, I haven't lived enough, and I never joke about my life." Albert promised. He really wouldn't joke with his own life.

  Albert chooses all the new courses, but he still wants to get a time converter. Maybe he can trigger a similar task, let him have one, or master the hour reversal spell.

   As for danger, isn't there still panel skills?

   Furthermore, you can also try to make a time converter yourself.

  The laws of the Ministry of Magic, just treat it as a fart.

   "When did you know about this?" After leaving Professor McGonagall's office, Katrina asked with a complicated expression.

"Everyone has their own secrets, doesn't it?" Albert blinked and said, "It's very rude to ask other people's secrets, not to mention that I believe they don't want me to ask, after all, they also Like Professor McGonagall promised."

   "You want to say that I'm rude?" Katrina glared at Albert, her face full: I'm very upset now.
