Chapter 43: Perfect

Draco Malfoy had never imagined in his life that he would receive two detentions just after school started.

Perhaps.

Professor McGonagall still needs to communicate with Professor Snape about the scheduling of the detentions.

"I, I'm sorry, Professor..."

Darren hurriedly backed away, looking embarrassed.

He clearly remembered that he had just touched this professor's head.

Professor McGonagall shook her head and said kindly: "It's alright, child. You are always so likable. Because of your bravery, Slytherin gains 50 points. Go sit down!"

Darren smiled shyly.

Then he began to find a seat.

When he sat down, the other Slytherins carefully moved away, keeping their distance from him.

A flash of heartache crossed Professor McGonagall's eyes.

How did this child get sorted into Slytherin by the Sorting Hat?

And who knows what kind of torture this child suffered last night?

Not a single person in the entire Slytherin house is willing to sit with him; it’s truly heartbreaking.

The Sorting Hat always causes so much trouble.

If Darren had been sorted into Gryffindor, that child would definitely be surrounded by little lions.

Just like how they welcomed Harry.

Professor McGonagall sighed.

Perhaps she should talk to Harry.

As a brother, he shouldn't ignore his younger brother because of such a small matter, right?

Darren didn't pay attention to Professor McGonagall's thoughts.

He only opened his book at this time.

[Ding, does the host wish to spend 500 Saint Father Points to master this book?]

As Darren opened "A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration," the system's prompt followed.

Oh?

Does this mean he doesn't need to study?

Afraid he’ll waste time on studying, so it wants him to focus on earning Saint Father Points?

Otherwise, should he try it?

Darren currently has over 900 Saint Father Points.

If he hadn't used those 1,000 Saint Father Points last night, he would have nearly 2,000 now.

Thinking of this, Darren already felt a bit of regret.

He sighed and decided to test the system's mastery effect first.

Maybe he really won't have to study in the future!

[Spend it!]

[Ding, spent successfully!]

As the system's voice faded, Darren's head shook, and then a massive amount of knowledge rushed into his brain.

And this knowledge wasn't just rote memorization; it came with his own insights, as if he had read it many times over.

This is...

Why even read the book then?

Darren looked up, feeling a bit sad.

While gaining knowledge, he also lost his worries!

And after he looked up, he realized the classroom was full of people.

Professor McGonagall had turned back into a tabby cat.

Seeing him look over, she nodded at him.

Darren hurriedly sat up straight and obediently.

Waiting for the class bell to ring.

Fortunately, he didn't wait long before the bell rang.

And along with the bell, Harry and Ron rushed in.

"Good, good, the professor hasn't come yet!"

Ron said loudly.

Harry nodded along.

His eyes looked toward Darren.

Darren was "anxiously" making eye signals at Harry, as if trying to tell him something.

Harry tugged at his hair in confusion, wanting to ask what was wrong with Darren, but was pulled by his sleeve by Ron.

"Class is about to start, we'll talk after class."

Harry had to nod and decided to sit down first.

"No, no, no, Mr. Weasley and Mr. Potter, it's not that class is about to start, it's that class has already started."

Professor McGonagall turned from a cat back into a human in front of all the students, giving Ron and Harry a fright.

"We got lost..."

Harry hurriedly explained.

"Perhaps I should turn you into a map? Sit down! Gryffindor loses ten points."

Harry felt a bit dejected.

He didn't expect to lose points on his first day of school.

Ron didn't expect it either.

The two of them looked like two pitiful little mice.

"Pfft!"

Malfoy laughed secretly.

However, after seeing Professor McGonagall's gaze, he hurriedly sat up straight.

"Transfiguration is the most dangerous and complex course you will take at Hogwarts!"

"Anyone who dares to mess around in my class, I will invite them out and never allow them to return!" ===== CHAPTER 107 =====

Professor McGonagall said with a stern face.

Darren noticed Hermione sitting bolt upright, looking like she was terrified of being kicked out.

"Look, just like this!"

Professor McGonagall waved her wand, turning the podium into a pig, and then turned it back.

Darren noticed everyone's eyes light up with excitement.

Clearly thinking this kind of magic was super cool.

It’s just that everyone soon understood that to reach this level, a lot of effort was still needed.

After Darren took down a bunch of notes along with all the other students, Professor McGonagall handed each of them a match.

Asking them to turn the match into a needle.

She walked around the classroom, guiding the students' techniques and incantations.

Darren was already very clear on the theory.

He waved his wand.

Hmm, the first time it only changed a little bit.

Alright, his Transfiguration talent was only 6 until now.

So Darren used the 7 talent points he had exchanged earlier to add 4 points to his Transfiguration talent; now his Transfiguration talent is 10.

He waved his wand again, and a wonderful change occurred.

The match magically turned into a needle, with a tiny needle eye on it.

"Perfect, little Mr. Potter has already done it. Slytherin gains 10 points!"

Professor McGonagall exclaimed, covering her mouth.

She turned to look at Harry and quietly frowned.

This child's match had no change at all.

She even saw the child's messy notes.

Truly worthy of being Gryffindor!

Once again insulting... criticizing the Sorting Hat's decision to sort Darren into Slytherin.

The second class was Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Many people were looking forward to this class the most.

As a result, they were stunned to find that this teacher only stuttered while reading from the book.

And the classroom was filled with the smell of garlic.

This made many Slytherin students frown in disgust as soon as they entered.

"It stinks to death, teacher, don't you take a bath?" ===== CHAPTER 108 =====
