Since reaching Master level in Transfiguration, his proficiency gains had dwindled to one or three points at a time.

Have you mastered your Animagus form?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Professor Tela immediately noticed the disappearance of his brooch; she spoke with quiet delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Professor, but I have some questions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is the transformation not smooth? Are the animal instincts too strong? Or can you not transform without your wand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Professor Tela sounded highly experienced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My student, these are all normal phenomena.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, Professor. But what if the Animagus form is a magical creature?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Magical creature… Magical creature?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Professor Tela leaned forward sharply, her voice hoarse:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me see…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long silence, the fiery light in her eyes could no longer be concealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sent out a white paper airplane, then spoke in a trembling voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I should have known… But to master it so quickly… Have you entered a dream? Tell me what you saw.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding the meaning of “dream” was one of En’s goals; he spoke slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I saw indistinct shadows, a black Catling, and countless mists;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then, I became that Catling I had seen…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He described it as fully as he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, very good. You have already entered one of your soul incarnations within the dream. As for the place you were in—that is the most wondrous place of all…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listen to me, child. Even wizards from Wada do not fully comprehend that world. It is a place without the passage of time, merely an existence—a flat, empty thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very few wizards ever enter it—the world beyond the Veil, the realm where wizard souls reside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, a wizard only gains access to it after death; if he refuses to accept death, he becomes a ghost;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if he willingly accepts it, he embarks upon a great adventure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wizards who practice Soul Transfiguration can glimpse just a corner of that world, granting them unique powers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, maintaining clear consciousness after transformation, or swiftly mastering the essence of self-transformation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Professor Tela spoke at length.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shorthand feather quill trembled as En recorded every word the professor said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To enter that place—even just a corner—is extremely difficult; ordinary Animagus transformation is nearly impossible to achieve,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>her gaze burned with intensity, emphasizing the word “ordinary” with deliberate meaning,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“yet its significance is immense. So, my student, have you thought of the method used by the wizards of Wada?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1065,"2026-06-19T10:00:41.888Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","dd043def470eedd1edc31701f6b669885f23dca8eb96f5343fddaad9668df820","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-274","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-272",526,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-learning-panel-cover.jpg"]
