Chapter 320
When January arrived, Hogwarts had more cats, owls, and even a deer.
Mr. Filch really couldn't understand, how could someone be stupid enough to think that turning into a deer could wander at night?
Probably because they ate the wrong cookie, Sean thought.
Occasionally, in order to prevent Mr. Filch's office from being completely filled with little wizards, or to reduce some workload for the professors, Sean would take away some "minor offense" little wizards.
For example, Hufflepuffs who accidentally passed curfew while playing Wizard's Chess.
This day, Sean walked out of the corridor and heard the panel's voice ring out pleasantly:
【You harvested the intimacy of the magical creature Kneazle (Mrs. Norris) at an expert standard, intimacy +50】
【Magical Creature Kneazle (Mrs. Norris): Intimacy (Skilled Level) (10/9000)】
"Hoo—"
Sean exhaled a long breath; it took more than a week, and he finally completed the Madam's intimacy task.
Next, he could make the first Magical Creature Transfiguration cookie in the Wizarding World!
The Weasleys' advertising slogan for the cookies couldn't help but appear in his mind, it would probably be:
"Out and about, worried about getting lost? Kneazle cookies, help your child grow into a wizard with a sense of direction!"
But before the cookies were known to the public, he always had to report to Professor Tela.
In the Hope Cabin.
Ritual is the most important part of alchemy; after being familiar enough with Kneazles, Sean further improved his ritual.
Now it takes more time, but it is enough to carry the magical power of magical creatures to be reflected in wizards.
The first Kneazle cookie was completed three days later; its appearance had changed, it was a cookie that would make a "purr purr" sound.
【You practiced Kneazle cookie making at an apprentice standard, proficiency +1】
The moment the panel sound rang, Sean's tense nerves also slowly relaxed.
Long-term efforts still brought some harvest.
Although the problem of wizard will still couldn't be solved, Sean vaguely held some guesses, that is, the will of ordinary wizards cannot be retained, but himself with a cat form is not necessarily.
Soon, a black cat appeared on the snow; it looked at itself in confusion, and then the green vertical pupils revealed human-like joy.
After turning into a Kneazle, Sean could clearly perceive that he possessed a unique intuition.
He found Justin in the kitchen without any effort, found Hermione in the library, and even found Harry on the Quidditch pitch.
After the semester started, Quidditch training started again.
Gryffindor Quidditch team captain Wood's requirements for team members were stricter than ever.
Sean saw that even in the continuous rainy days after the heavy snow, his enthusiasm didn't cool down at all. The Wei Silai twins were complaining that Wood was turning into a training maniac, but Harry was now on Wood's side.
"If we win the next game against Hufflepuff, we can beat the Slytherin team in the House Cup championship, this is the first time in seven years."
Harry muttered to himself in the corner of the locker room.
Although Sean didn't think Quidditch was very fun, seeing Gryffindor united, he suddenly thought that maybe this is youth.
So a black cat stepped on the rain and snow and left the Quidditch pitch, leaving only some plum-shaped footprints on the snow.
The wind and snow were heavy, but the black cat was wearing clothes, but it was covered by the Disillusionment Charm.
Alchemy Office.
A little wizard's figure suddenly appeared not far away, and no one noticed how he stood here.
This is the concealment of Animagus. During Voldemort's first rise, Professor McGonagall relied on this as a spy for the Ministry of Magic to gather intelligence for the Ministry of Magic; and a certain beetle, relied on this to get many headlines, wrote "The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore" single-handedly, and also fabricated rumors about Hermione, Harry, and others.
Finally discovered and caught by Hermione, put in a bottle with a Firm Binding Charm, until she released it on the Hogwarts Express leaving Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The Wizarding World has never had measures against Animagus, otherwise Azkaban would not have been cleared by Sirius Black.
As for that registration form...
Sean didn't think a form that missed four or five people in the UK had any effect.
Many senior wizards poured out of the Alchemy classroom door again.
"Peyton, heard about it? The International Alchemy Conference is about to start, this year..."
A wizard wearing a Ravenclaw scarf said.
"If you still have some brains, you will know that this has nothing to do with us. The youngest alchemist at Hogwarts in the history of the conference is Headmaster Albus Dumbledore. Do you think you can compare to Headmaster Dumbledore?"
Pamela Peyton raised her eyebrows.
Every year there are such sixth-year little wizards who always think they can participate in this level of alchemy event like Headmaster Dumbledore when he was young.
Little did they know, Headmaster Dumbledore had such a dazzling halo back then—Head Boy, Prefect, won the Barnabus Finkley Award for Exceptional Spell-Casting, the Cairo International Alchemy Conference Award for Pioneering Contribution, and was also the youth representative of the British Wizengamot.
Once they study alchemy for a while longer, they will know how unrealistic they are.
"Oh, of course I can't compare to the Headmaster, but today the Professor didn't criticize my homework, which means I have made great progress, right? Peyton. As long as I continue such efforts, maybe I..."
This Ravenclaw's words made the four wizards who chose alchemy nod.
Wizards who study alchemy always have to have some dreams.
And Professor Tela, as the premier alchemist, her evaluation of students is only disappointment, criticism, and default.
Today they undoubtedly received a very high evaluation, which is also worth mentioning in the small circle of wizards studying alchemy.
"You will know, even in all magic branches, alchemy is the one that requires the most talent..."
Pamela Peyton didn't intend to talk anymore; she sometimes even doubted whether these guys were qualified to choose alchemy.
If they had some insight, they would know that the Professor was in a good mood every time she had this class.
The reason is...
"If you still have some naive ideas, why don't you stay at the door of the Alchemy classroom for a while longer."
After she finished speaking, she left the corridor.
Her eternal ink still had some flaws, she had to spend more time... wizards without talent can only rely on hard work, she always firmly believed in this.
When the rain outside the window fell on the snow, Sean entered the Alchemy classroom.
