A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 64 The Crazy Skill Curse

The next day, the library,
Hermione looked at Alice holding the "Guide to Common Spells", and said in surprise:
"Alice, why are you interested in spells?"

After more than two weeks of getting along, Hermione knew that Alice seemed to be very obsessed with potions and herbalism, because every time she came to the library, Alice basically read books related to potions and herbs.

So seeing that Alice suddenly read "Guide to Common Spells", a book related to spells, she subconsciously asked,
"I just suddenly felt that magic spells are also very important, so I want to take the time to learn more!"

Alice opened the book, pushed it in the direction of Charlie lying on the table, and then replied with a smile,

"Of course, as a wizard, spells must be mastered. I've been researching the unlocking spell recently!"

Hermione nodded approvingly.

"Unlocking spell? Isn't there such a spell in the textbook?"

Alice wondered.

Hermione looked up proudly, and explained:
"You don't know that, the lock-picking spell we are learning now, the spell is-Alahoo Cave Open-In fact, if you have read the book "Anthology of Curses in the Eighteenth Century",

You should know that the previous lock-unlocking spell was not this one, but it was called "open the door". This spell can directly smash the door lock, and the previous one is called "open sesame", which can directly split the entire door into several pieces.

But later everyone felt that this effect was the same as the "cutting curse", so it evolved into the current one, which can achieve a silent unlocking curse."

While Hermione was eloquently explaining the origin of the Unlocking Curse to Alice, Charlie, who was lying next to Alice, silently leaned in Alice's direction,
Then he began to quickly browse the "Guide to Common Spells". Whenever he finished a page, he would secretly turn the book to the next page with his cat's paw when everyone was not paying attention.
At the same time, on his skill bar, new spell skills began to appear one by one,

Descaling spell: mantra - cyclone sweep - quickly remove liquid stains, including blood stains, oil stains, etc.,

Cleaning Mantra: mantra - clean up - housework spell, can be used to clean up garbage,
Writing spell: spell - write quickly - you can let the quill write with your thoughts,

Smoke Curse: The spell - smoky - can produce a large amount of smoke out of thin air, blocking vision,

With the continuous emergence of new skills on the skill bar, Charlie felt that his brain began to gradually become drowsy, and in the end he fell asleep directly on the book.
It turns out that the formation of every new skill in the skill bar will consume some of his spirit. This time, the sudden generation of so many new skills directly emptied his mental power in an instant, and fell into a deep sleep.

"Charlie, Charlie?"

Alice saw that Charlie suddenly lost consciousness and lay down on the magic book, she was startled, and quickly stretched out her hand to push,
Seeing that Charlie didn't respond, Alice, who was a little worried, was about to take Charlie to Madam Pomfrey, but when she heard Charlie snoring, it seemed that he was just falling asleep.
"Your cat is too loud, it will disturb other students who are reading, please take him out immediately!"

Attracted by the sound of snoring, Mrs. Pince pointed to Charlie, frowned and ordered to Alice.

"Sorry ma'am, I'll take him out now!"

Alice picked up Charlie who was sleeping unconscious, saluted Mrs. Pince, then gave Hermione a wink, and left the library.

After Alice left, Hermione put back the "Guide to Commonly Used Spells" that Alice was holding and the "List of Famous Contemporary Magicians" she was reading, and then left the library.

"What's wrong with Charlie?"

Hermione asked with some concern,
"It looks like she's asleep!"

There was some uncertainty in Alice's tone, after all, Charlie had never been in such a situation before, and it was only last night that Charlie showed the same thinking as a human.

"Why don't you take it to Madam Pomfrey to have a look!"

Hermione suggested,
Although Charlie was snoring and seemed to be asleep, Alice couldn't wake up no matter how much she shook. It was obviously not normal. Don't be careful and accidentally ate something strange.

After hesitating for a moment, out of concern, Alice finally nodded.

The two brought Charlie, who was exhausted and in a deep sleep, to the school doctor's office and found Madam Pomfrey, who was proficient in healing spells.
However, Mrs. Pang Lei told Alice and Hermione that she was not very good at magical animals, and asked them to go to the teacher of the school who taught magical animals-Professor Kettleburn,
Professor Kettleburn is an old man who does not seem to be much younger than Dumbledore. It is said that when Armando Dippet was the headmaster of Hogwarts, he was already a teacher of magical animals.
However, due to his reckless personality, now there is only one arm and half of his body left, and the rest are replaced by magical prosthetics.

When Alice found Professor Kettleburn with Charlie in his arms, he was casting a freezing spell on a few eggs of the ash snake that he had just found.

"Oh, you guys just wait a moment, I will deal with these eggs, if you leave them alone, they will set the whole house on fire in a while!"

"Okay, Professor!"

Alice stood aside respectfully holding Charlie and Hermione and waited quietly.

Two minutes later, Professor Kettleburn finally cast a Freezing Curse on all the ashes and snake eggs,
"This is the main ingredient for making the most effective and powerful love potion in the wizarding world. Professor Snape should be interested in them. By the way, what can you do for me?"

Professor Kettleburn asked Alice and Hermione with a smile while putting the frozen ash snake eggs into a special box.

Alice lifted Charlie up and said:
"There seems to be something wrong with my pet, professor, can you take a look at it for me?"

"Oh, it's a phantom cat, let me see what's going on?"

Professor Kettleburn took Charlie, raised his wand and began to cast some examining animal charms,

"Huh? How could this happen? It's incredible! Oh, Merlin, I must have read it wrong!"

The more he checked, the more expressive Professor Kettleburn became, and he even began to let out exclamations.
"What's the matter? What's the matter with Charlie?"

When Alice saw this, her heart suddenly rose.

Professor Kettleburn returned Charlie to Alice with some reluctance and comforted him:
"Son, don't worry, he's fine. His body is very good, very strong, and he has some very good magic power in his body. If you don't look at his appearance, I almost think he is not a phantom cat, but a magical animal from the east, Zouwu's cub!"
