Chapter 769: Full marks, kid!!

~4 min read 740 words

Naturally, Harry's Quidditch team won, of course.

They spent a long, happy period of time.

Then, they suddenly stepped into June all at once.

This was the season for exams.

One day, while they were in the library doing homework and reviewing, they received a letter from Hagrid.

The Ministry of Magic had decided to come to Hogwarts on June 6th to hear Hagrid's appeal and carry out the execution of Buckbeak.

This news shocked Harry and the others terribly.

Darren's eyes turned red instantly.

He looked at the letter and said with a choked voice: "The Ministry of Magic seems to have already made up its mind; they even scheduled the appeal and the execution for the same day.

They probably never intended to let Hagrid continue the appeal. Buckbeak will definitely die. It's all my fault... I should have gone to find Malfoy, I should have gone to be his lackey, I should have gone to beg him..."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

He was so sad he couldn't eat.

Harry and the others were running around in a panic.

In the end, they could only comfort him, saying perhaps there was still a turning point.

After all, they still had one chance to appeal; what if it succeeded?

"That day seems to be the day our exams end. We can go find Hagrid, we can help him.

Darren, you can also use your eloquence to help him, right? At Hogwarts, maybe you could succeed.

We don't have to pin all our hopes on Hagrid; you know he doesn't have any confidence at all.

Instead, it's us—we've prepared a lot!"

Hermione finally said firmly.

This made Darren much happier.

He immediately had a reason to eat.

So, pretending he couldn't swallow, he 'forced' himself to eat a lot of food.

His stomach felt like it was going to burst.

Only then did he take out the case files again.

"You guys eat first, I'm going to the dormitory to look for more. I must be able to do more."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

He said excitedly.

Then he hurriedly left with the thick case files.

The following two days.

Every day, Darren had the system put shadows under his eyes.

This made him look increasingly haggard and exhausted.

And he harvested even more Saintly Father Value.

However, he didn't keep up the act for two days before these days of endless Saintly Father Value came to an end.

Because they started their exams.

Professor McGonagall asked them to turn a tortoise into a teapot; the requirement for full marks was that the teapot must not have a single trace of the tortoise's characteristics.

Darren turned the teapot into a Chinese-style teapot.

It was antique and elegant, with a dragon soaring into the sky carved onto it.

The giant dragon looked back, its aura imposing.

Professor McGonagall couldn't stop praising it.

She really wanted to keep it for her collection.

But Darren had already turned the tortoise back.

He was always worried that such transfiguration wasn't good for the little animal.

He transfigured the fishbowl containing the tortoise into a cartoon mug for Professor McGonagall.

On it was drawn a very cute tabby cat.

This made Professor McGonagall so pleasantly surprised she almost lost her composure on the spot.

But as a professor of several decades, she held it in.

"Full marks, child!"

She said with satisfaction.

By the time everyone walked out of the Transfiguration classroom, it was already lunchtime.

Hermione looked worried. "My teapot still had willow patterns; I wonder if Professor McGonagall will deduct points from me?"

Besides her, Harry was also full of anxiety.

"The spout of my teapot is still the tortoise's head; I hope Professor McGonagall won't notice."

"Alright, guys, stop talking. What you're saying makes me feel like jumping off a building right now, because I'm even worse than you!"

Ron ended the conversation.

After they hurriedly finished lunch.

They went to the Charms classroom.

Professor Flitwick did indeed, just as Hermione said, test them on the Cheering Charm.

Darren's partner was Cassandra.

When he finished using the Cheering Charm, Cassandra showed a long-lost look of happiness for the first time in a year.

The next day, they took the Care of Magical Creatures exam. ===== CHAPTER 771 =====
