Snakes at Hogwarts

"It's not fair"

At the Slytherin table, Draco was still complaining angrily to Andros.

"I obviously succeeded in conjuring a needle. Why did Professor McGonagall only exempt you from homework?"

"Maybe it's because what Ender conjured was a beautiful silver needle, and yours was just a match with a different color." Next to Draco, Zabini complained mercilessly.

"You're not much better either."

...

Back to a few hours ago, Andros was making a splash in the Transfiguration class. Until the end of get out of class, he was still the only student in the class who had completed the transformation of a match into a needle.

This allowed Professor McGonagall to directly exempt Andros from his homework, which made Draco and the other students in the class envious.

It seems that no matter which school you are in, being able to do homework reasonably and legally is the highest pursuit of students.

"Why did you succeed the first time? Is there any secret in this?" Draco asked unwillingly.

why

The reason is simple. It's not that your will is not strong, but your control of magic is even worse.

Of course, Andros only thought about these words in his mind, and he tried to explain to Draco as tactfully as possible.

"You can't be impatient, Draco. Transfiguration is a technical job. When you wave your wand and say the spell, the effect of the spell begins. This is a continuous process, although it may only be a few seconds. But you can’t go wrong in every aspect. It’s not difficult for you, you just have to be patient.”

Xiaolong is always too anxious to show off himself, but transformation is not something that can only be accomplished in haste.

"I'm not trying to hit you, Draco. Transfiguration requires talent. Look at Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall. They have shown their talent in this area very early." Zabini patted him gently. Patted Draco on the shoulder.

"You are already great, but transfiguration is a subject that requires talent, and Andros is a monster."

So, is this a compliment to me?

"Not to mention this, what else did Professor McGonagall keep you in the classroom after class? Couldn't it be that he was giving you a special treatment alone?" Zabini asked.

"How is it possible? The professor wanted to determine how far my transformation technique can be achieved, so he left me here for a simple test."

Andros said concisely and concisely. What he didn't tell the two of them was that Professor McGonagall really gave him some advice.

However, this process of opening a small stove is a bit painful.

"Mr. Lobach, I know that you are quite talented in transfiguration, but I need to confirm to what extent you can achieve it." Professor McGonagall told Ann in the transfiguration classroom a few hours ago. Dros said.

"This is very necessary. If you really have such a talent, I wouldn't mind teaching you some knowledge beyond the first-grade textbooks."

After the class ended, the witch stopped Andros as he was about to leave.

There was a rare smile on her face, which was very different from the rigid and serious image in the past. It seemed that she was very satisfied with Andros.

Professor McGonagall had a good impression of Andros from the moment she went to pick him and Hermione up into the wizarding world. Even when the Sorting Hat sorted her into Slytherin, this good impression did not fade. The witch was a qualified teacher. , there will be no bias against students because of the college they are assigned to.

From this point of view, Snape is indeed not a qualified professor.

"Don't be nervous, it's just some simple tests." Professor McGonagall took out some small items from the drawer behind the desk.

"Next, you need to follow my orders and try to transform these things. It doesn't matter even if you don't succeed.

Do you still remember what I just said? Empty your mind and concentrate. Let's try something simpler first. Now, try to make this plate more sophisticated. "Professor McGonagall pointed to the silver plate on the table.

Immediately afterwards, Andros's pain began. At the request of Professor McGonagall, he began to continuously try to release the transformation spell to change the form of these things. At first, it was okay, just changing the color of the plate, or changing the snuff box. To become more refined, Andros can easily complete it.

But slowly, he became unable to do what he wanted.

Maintaining a strong will and delivering magic power at high intensity is actually quite difficult, especially since the difficulty of casting spells is still rising exponentially.

Until now, his head still hurts a little.

This is a manifestation of magic overdraft.

The current Andros has no way to transform living creatures, for example, turning a mouse into a snuff box. It would take a long time for the current Andros to do it.

"Okay, you can stop now, Mr. Lobach."

"I think I already know the level of your transformation. You are indeed very talented, but this talent requires acquired training. Therefore, I think you need some correct guidance. This is very important. There have been many people like you who have the same skills. Gifted students end up killing themselves by being overconfident.”

"Starting from the next class, I will give you some training alone. You can think of it as extra after-school homework. Your level is much better than that of first graders. Step-by-step learning will not be of any help to you. That way It’s just a waste of your talent.”

"Of course, that is if you can ensure that you are always ahead of the teaching progress of this class, what do you think, Mr. Lobach?"

Andros didn't expect that the stern Professor McGonagall would actually offer to give him a small meal.

Is there any need to say that?

Of course I agree

"Thank you very much, Professor McGonagall. I promise to keep these classmates under my guidance."

"Well, I have a copy of Transfiguration Today. This is an academic journal. Reading more will be of great help to your understanding of this magic. I will check how you read it after the next class."

..........................

"Hey, Andros, why are you in a daze again?" Draco shouted, bringing Andros back to reality.

"My head hurts a little. Maybe I used too much magic power." Andros rubbed his head gently.

"I heard that you earned ten points for Slytherin in Professor McGonagall's class, and Professor McGonagall even gave you a special session." Senior Sister Farley walked over with a smile.

She was in a good mood because Slytherin's score was now far ahead of the other three houses.

If nothing else, winning this year's Academy Cup won't be a problem.

However, I don’t know how she would feel if she knew that this year’s Academy Cup has been pre-scheduled.
