This is what Ravenclaw looks like.

"Recover as before."

Andrew waved his wand, and the damaged parts of the table with broken legs in front of him began to stick together, restoring it to its unbroken appearance.

‘Something’s wrong…’

Andrew quickly stepped forward and pressed it - and sure enough, just as he expected, the legs of the table were easily broken.

'It shouldn't be... This is just a little curse from the first grade, but it's just like the description... it can't be repaired...'

He carefully observed the broken parts, but couldn't see why - old creases, an ordinary table, and a qualified spell.

'It's a concept that's still being speculated on... There are too many unknowns in the magic world...'

After confirming that there was no progress in the Iron Armor Curse for the time being, he began to study small first-grade spells in his spare time - but this simplest repair spell directly stumped him conceptually.

The reason is simple - magic power cannot be fully explained by the magic world's observation methods.

Yes, there's no way to fully explain it, without good observational tools - but that's Andrew's idea.

The nature of magic power has not yet been explained. The most classic manifestation is that even the simplest first-year student can learn the repair spell, but in the hands of top wizards, there are things that cannot be repaired.

For example, the most classic magic wand, and the most outrageous and simple table and chair.

There are a bunch of poorly repaired tables and chairs in Hogwarts - there are currently two mainstream theories, which can explain it, but cannot completely explain it.

1. The tables and chairs were contaminated with magic power when they were with wizards for a long time, which made it more and more difficult to repair the magic power, until it was completely impossible to repair it.

2. It was imbued with magical power during many repairs, making the repairs more and more laborious, and ultimately irreparable.

Experiments have been done before at Hogwarts, and they all worked, but there's no way to explain the occasional problems with new tables and chairs that can't be repaired the first time - nor can it explain the problems with some Muggle items that can't be repaired.

All in all, the simplest spells contain the greatest troubles.

'Transfiguration is easy, but it only has a short-term repair effect... As for permanent casting, it's even less worthwhile...'

He sighed and lamented that he was really drifting - but he copied a small iron armor spell, and actually tried to study something that has no concrete conclusion so far.

‘But it can’t be said that there are no benefits. At least after a few days of struggling with the spell, my proficiency in spells has improved, and the repair can be considered more refined... At least the time was not wasted. I can happily wait for the opening ceremony. ’

He finally gave up his after-school pastime of tinkering with old tables and chairs, and began to prepare to welcome back the other people in the dormitory.

'It's the last semester. Percy will probably not be in the office next semester. Gryffindor will usher in a new group of prefects, and the students on duty will also change...'

'However, the class schedule has been confirmed in the past few days. Next semester, I will take elective courses on magical creatures, runes, and arithmetic and divination. ’

The elective courses are to choose two out of five, including Care of Magical Creatures, Divination, Divination, Runes, and Muggle Studies. Of course, two is the minimum, so you can choose more than one.

The first two courses were recommended by Professor McGonagall, and the latter course, Arithmetic Divination, was what he wanted to learn himself - he wanted to see how arithmetic works in the wizarding world, which might help him understand the basic logic of magic. .

Of course, if it really doesn't work, he can only say goodbye with regret - it's impossible to give up on the other two doors anyway.

'Being first in all subjects sounds really wonderful, but it is too luxurious. Even Percy wasted a lot of time - being first in divination without the talent of divination is really... just for the certificate. ’

He shook his head, filled out his course selection form, and then began to relax.

It's okay for school to start tonight, but I'll be busy tomorrow - the course selection receipts for students leaving school will be handed in tomorrow. I'm afraid he and Percy will have to work overtime to make statistics to ensure that the list is correct.

"Andrew, we're back!"

Hal almost knocked open the dormitory door with a rush, "Two weeks of vacation, two weeks of news, by the way, how are your course selections?"

"I chose three subjects," Andrew read over his choice, "What about you?"

"Three subjects, as expected of you, but I'm not bad either. I took Divination, Magical Creatures and Muggle Studies as electives."

?

Andrew's eyes widened - no, don't you plan to develop into journalism? Divination, do you think you are a magician?

"Don't be so surprised. Magical creatures are a must. You can't capture any creature and just say yes. Strange creatures are similar to Muggle research. I can't report my email or other Muggle things as news, right? "

Hal looked matter-of-fact.

‘That makes sense, but what about divination? ’

"As for divination, because it's very cool. Maybe I can figure out where the news is happening. At worst, I'll give up if I don't have the talent..."

Reasonable and well-founded.

While Hal was showing off his superb course selection skills, the other people also returned to the dormitory one after another.

Hughes chose Muggle Studies and Runes, Kevin chose Numerology and Magical Creatures, and as for Belle, it was very magical that he chose Muggle Studies and Divination.

Andrew could understand the selection of candidates in front of him, but Bell really couldn't understand it.

But Bell smiled, "Ah, this matter is very simple. The team said that Muggle Studies is the easiest course to get a certificate, and so is Magical Creatures. But the professor has changed, and the new professor's temper is unknown, so I can only choose Divination as a backup."

"The professor has changed?"

The other three exclaimed, especially Hal, who claimed to be a personal reporter, "The professor has changed, I don't know, Taylor, do you know?"

Andrew also showed a surprised expression on his face.

The professor has changed? How come he doesn't know?

These days he has been on duty in the office and has not seen any reports of new professors joining the job, and there are no relevant files to record?

Is it something about the days of vacation?

That's not right, the files are endless, especially Professor Black didn't say anything about the latest news there-if there is a new professor, wouldn't there be news a long time ago?

Wait-he suddenly remembered something.

It seems that the professor mentioned it-yes, there is such a thing!

The professor of the magical creature protection course is about to retire, but the next professor has not been declared...

It should be that one.

"It seems that Andrew knows..."

"It seems to be true."

Don't keep guessing based on my expression. I really don't know about this...

But everyone is starting to get interested in the fake certificate. "Take the fortune-telling. It seems that the professor has a bad temper and likes to see students get into trouble. It's easy to get the grades, and you can get a certificate as long as you understand the process during the graduation exam. It's just that people outside don't recognize it. People who are interested in the team say it out loud..."

Okay...

Andrew rubbed his head. He now knows the position of the fortune-telling and part of the reason why Professor McGonagall dislikes the professor so much.
