"A powerful patron saint?" Ryan's eyes lit up.

It's good to be strong. The stronger you are, the safer you feel.

"This is not a good thing." Ravenclaw said, "Being strong means that your patron saint is likely to be a magical animal."

"What's the matter..." Before Ryan could finish his words, his expression suddenly changed.

"It seems that you have realized it." Ravenclaw said, "A wizard's patron saint is generally consistent with his Animagus form. And the taboo of human body transformation is magical animals."

Ryan couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that he didn't hastily choose to learn Animagus transformation during the winter vacation.

"So, my suggestion is to wait until you can summon the Patronus before you consider whether you can implement the Animagus transformation ritual." Ravenclaw said, "After all, there is still a possibility that the Patronus Curse will fail. , that means your talent in this spell is really poor."

So am I bound to suffer from an inability to learn animagus transformations and poor quality dopamine pumping?

Ryan was on the verge of tears.

"I will concentrate on practicing the Patronus Charm during this period." He said, "Ms. Ravenclaw, is there any way you can help me summon the Patronus as soon as possible?"

"Extremely happy memories, or enhanced mental power." Ravenclaw said, "The former requires you to find it yourself, or find a way to create a happy memory now; while the latter, there are not many quick methods, mental power It takes time and hard practice to grow, and Occlumency is a good training method.”

"Can I ask what you mean about 'there aren't many quick fixes'?" Ryan asked.

"You can, but I don't recommend you to try it." Ravenclaw said, "All quick methods come at a very high risk of death. At least I don't have a quick method with a mortality rate of less than [-]%. What else can you do?" Want to know?"

"I think it's better to keep our feet on the ground." Ryan replied immediately.

"Prudence is an excellent quality." Ravenclaw nodded, "You don't have to worry too much. In addition to Animagus, there are many simple and feasible ritual magics. Wait until you are familiar with runes. Once your level reaches the required level, I will naturally tutor you in some exercises."

"Thank you for your teaching, Ms. Ravenclaw." Ryan bowed to her.

Ravenclaw nodded, and her figure dissipated, turning into a pearly white mist and disappearing into the crystal ball.

Ryan left the Room of Requirement and went to the school infirmary.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?" Madam Pomfrey, wearing a white turban, asked softly.

"I'm not here to see a doctor." Ryan said, "I would like to ask, are there any joy potions in the infirmary?"

"What do you want the elixir for?" Madam Pomfrey's tone became stern, "I will not prescribe it to any healthy little wizard."

"I have a friend who is broken up in love." Ryan replied, "He has been depressed for many days. If this continues, I'm afraid he will not be able to think about it."

"So that's it." Madam Pomfrey's expression softened, "However, I need to register your name and the names of your friends."

"No problem, my name is Ryan Franklin." Ryan replied. He saw Madam Pomfrey writing the elixir of joy on a large book, followed by her name. He continued, "The patient's name is Cedric. Diggory is a third year Hufflepuff student."

"Are you a Hufflepuff too?" Madam Pomfrey laughed.

"Of course." Ryan nodded.

Madam Pomfrey wrote Hufflepuff on the book, signed her name, and then got up and went to the medicine cabinet to take out a small bottle of potion.

This bottle of potion exudes a golden light as warm as the sun, making people feel physically and mentally comfortable.

Ryan licked his lips and suppressed the thought of swallowing this bottle of potion privately.

Just for a moment, he had the idea of ​​using a joy potion to try to summon the divine guards.

But if the God-calling Guardian can be successful so easily, it is not considered an advanced magic spell.

If this shortcut really existed, Ravenclaw wouldn't hide it.

The joy potion will most likely have no effect, because the happiness brought by the potion is soulless happiness.

"Thank you, Madam Pomfrey." Ryan took the potion and bowed to Madam Pomfrey.

He returned to the common room all the way. Seeing that Cedric was not there, Ryan went to the third-year dormitory to search again. Sure enough, he saw Cedric lying on the bed with his eyes blank, and sitting next to him with a guilty look on his face. Bernard.

"Isn't Senior Cedric getting better yet?" Ryan asked.

"He's always been like this, not even saying a word." Bernard sighed, "Although he still goes to class as usual every day, as soon as he returns to the dormitory, he falls on the bed and looks like this. Is there anything you can do, Ryan? "

"Of course, that's why I'm here," Ryan replied.

Cedric's eyes moved, and he weakly raised his head, hoping that this smart little wizard would come up with another idea.

The next moment, a medicine bottle was stuffed into his mouth.

Damn it, Diggory.

Suddenly, a whole bottle of joy potion was poured into Cedric's stomach.

Cedric's expression brightened at a speed visible to the naked eye. He smiled brightly, rolled over from the bed, walked around the dormitory, and started singing loudly again.

"How did you do it?" Bernard pointed at Cedric, who was singing and dancing. "It doesn't matter if he looks like this, right?"

"Happiness potion." Ryan said succinctly, "Since Senior Cedric can't think about it psychologically, then we can just make him want to think about it physically."

When Bernard heard this, he didn't know why, but he shrank his neck.

"Okay, I think after the effect of the Joy Potion wears off, Senior Cedric will burst into tears. At this time, he needs you to be by his side." Ryan said, "Of course, if one bottle of Joy Potion is not enough, Then add another bottle.”

"Okay, I will keep an eye on Cedric." Bernard nodded solemnly.

Ryan smiled meaningfully: "Remember your promise, senior...ah, it seems that the effect of the medicine has worn off."

Cedric's singing was getting quieter.

"I wish you good luck, senior." Ryan's smile made Bernard's hair stand on end.

He left the room and gently closed the door curtain.

After a while, Bernard's screams were heard from behind.

The next day, when Bernard went to the school infirmary for treatment with a bruised nose and face, he gave Ryan an extremely resentful look.

Ryan whistled happily, packed up his things, and walked to the potions classroom with Justin.

Snape was still sitting on the podium with a gloomy expression, flipping through the textbooks. He waited until the little wizards were seated, then closed the book with a snap and stood up.

At this time, Ryan's expression suddenly changed.

The speculum he wore close to his body was gently tapping the skin of his chest due to the force of rotation.

Ryan's body tensed up instantly, because the rotation speed of the looking glass was not slow, and even the clothes on his chest were jumping due to the force of the rotation.

He used Occlumency to control his emotions and slowly relax his body.

Based on the tactile feedback on his skin, Lane knew that the speculum was rotating counterclockwise.

This shows that the malice is in those around you, not against yourself.

"We are going to learn energy potions today." Snape's voice sounded from the podium, "From now on, you will be exposed to more advanced potion knowledge. Likewise, more idiots will make mistakes because of it. This is normal. , Potions science never shows its glory in front of mediocrity...Franklin!"

"I'm listening, Professor." Ryan stood up.

"Tell me the twelve uses of dragon's blood." Snape asked.

Ryan's heartbeat suddenly slowed down a beat.

Because the speculum on his chest quickly rotated clockwise.
