Chapter 129: Preparation for Dragon Skin and Dragon Scales Transformation

Allen woke up the next day and immediately checked his body, but when he reached out, he found no scales—only a fuzzy texture; his entire body was covered in fur, pale yellow and long, marked with black spots, while the fur on his chest, abdomen, and inner limbs was white.

Allen couldn't at first recognize what animal's fur this was, until he stood before the mirror and saw the familiar "king" marking on his forehead—then he realized his talent transformation today had produced tiger fur...

Although this result disappointed him, he was not discouraged at all, for he knew exactly where the problem lay!

It seems he still needed to consume magical materials from the fire dragon! To grow stronger, he had to spend money! Allen thought silently to himself.

Professor Dumbledore had already approved his application for magical materials for talent transformation research, so he'd apply for some fire dragon-derived magical materials another day. Allen made up his mind.

This decision lifted Allen's spirits considerably; he admired his reflection in the mirror and suddenly thought his appearance wasn't bad at all—this would make a great limited-edition skin in a game...

Allen was stunned again by his own thought—he suddenly realized his talent-transformed skin resembled the various skins of characters from his past-life games, except his was limited to animal forms.

But this was also a pleasant way to liven up his life; he was already tired of randomly getting horns, ears, noses, and other random parts—skin transformations were far more fun.

Looking at his own tiger-like reflection in the mirror, Allen's mood improved further...

His roommates, now awake, also noticed the tiger-man Allen; after yesterday's events, their acceptance of his transformations had risen another level, and today they all expressed envy, pressing him with questions about how it felt.

Allen said he felt nothing special, just a bit warm, but bearable.

Professor McGonagall showed extraordinary enthusiasm for Allen's transformation today; she ran her hands over his head and neck for a long time, and he felt she treated him like a giant cat—but wasn't a tiger just a giant cat?...

To Allen's surprise, Hermione also loved his transformation today; she kept stroking his glossy, sleek fur and even tried to scratch his chin.

Allen firmly stopped this petting behavior; he was annoyed—he had transformed into tiger skin, yet everyone treated him like a housecat to be scratched! How infuriating!

"I've always wanted to own a cat,

today's transformation has convinced me—I must write to my parents and ask them to let me keep one." Hermione told Allen at the Gryffindor table, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him.

Allen made no reply to Hermione's words, for he was reading a letter.

While they ate breakfast in the Great Hall, Hedwig suddenly flew in and dropped a letter into his lap, but she seemed to dislike his transformation today and refused to eat any food he offered.

The letter was from Newt Scamander—unexpectedly, he had replied so quickly...

This letter was unexpectedly long; Mr. Scamander had shown intense enthusiasm for Allen's transformation of the Invisible Beast's fur.

He spent considerable space recalling an Invisible Beast that had accompanied him for years, detailing its habits and emphasizing that the Invisible Beast only turned invisible when it felt threatened.

Allen suddenly understood—he had been anxious since the moment he saw his full-body fur yesterday, constantly on edge all day, no wonder he'd remained invisible.

According to Mr. Scamander, if he calmed his mind, the invisibility effect would naturally fade.

But Allen suddenly thought being invisible wasn't so bad—the sight of his full silver-white fur was quite frightening.

Finally, Mr. Scamander strongly encouraged Allen to discuss the direction of his talent transformation with him; he seemed even more interested in Allen now.

After reading the letter, Allen had a sudden insight—he remembered his plan to transform into dragon skin and scales, and realized he had been rash; for a powerful magical creature like the fire dragon, he should have consulted an expert beforehand to avoid problems like yesterday's.

He immediately wrote a reply, detailing his plan to transform into dragon skin and scales, and asked Mr. Scamander to review it.

After sending the letter, Allen filled out the application form for fire dragon magical materials for talent transformation research and submitted it to Professor McGonagall after Transfiguration class.

Professor McGonagall was also deeply astonished by Allen's imagination.

The next day, Allen received another letter from Newt Scamander, which read:

Mr. Finis:

Your letter has been received; please allow me to first commend your boundless imagination.

Regarding your question, I believe no one in the magical world is better qualified to answer than I am; as the only private dragon breeder in the magical world, I have deep knowledge of fire dragons.

First, I believe your idea of transforming into dragon skin and scales is feasible—dragon scales and skin possess extremely high defense, and their magical energy is entirely devoted to enhancing defense, so they won't cause problems like the Invisible Beast's invisibility.

But one point requires your special attention: since I still don't fully understand your talent transformation ability, I don't know how you determine you can transform into dragon skin and scales rather than other parts of the fire dragon, so I must specifically warn you.

The most dangerous organ of the fire dragon is actually its fire-breathing gland. Fire dragons breathe fire because they have two glands in their mouths that secrete two magical substances, storing them in sacs; when the dragon wishes to breathe fire, the glands expel these substances, which ignite upon contact in front of the dragon's mouth and continue to be projected forward.

These two magical secretions are extremely dangerous; I don't know how precisely you can control your transformation targets, so I must warn you in advance.

If you transform into the fire-breathing gland of the fire dragon, you must remain calm and avoid opening your mouth, lest you endanger yourself or others—the power of the fire dragon's breath exceeds your imagination.

Finally, I wish you good health and academic success; if you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime, and please write often to update me on your progress in talent transformation research—I find this extremely interesting.

Finally, I wish you good health and academic success; if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me anytime, and please write to me regularly to update me on your progress with your research on innate transformation—I'm very interested in this.

Allen finished reading the letter and stroked his chin, lost in thought...

Transforming into dragon skin and scales was technically feasible, but Mr. Scamander's letter had pointed him toward a far more intriguing direction!

Technically, the transformation of dragon hide and dragon scales is no longer an issue, but Mr. Scamander's letter seems to have pointed him toward a more intriguing direction!
