Chapter 373 Breakup
"Exquisite calculation, classmate Taylor, Ravenclaw will add three points!"
In the Arithmetic Divination class, Andrew kept getting good marks as always. Professor Victor was extremely satisfied with his performance in frying fish, but Miss Granger seemed to have given up on taking the first place in this class. Anyway, she didn't even raise her hand during this period. The enthusiasm has dissipated.
'It can't be helped, it's not even about talent, and I didn't want to combine the two to bully people...'
Andrew didn't feel guilty anymore, because he heard some time ago that Miss Granger was crazy about getting grades in Muggle Studies class - everyone was frying fish, so there's nothing to say if you get bombed.
"Twelve points scored today, Taylor!"
At the end of get out of class, as soon as Professor Victor left, someone wanted to count how many points Andrew had earned in this class.
The current Miss Granger is still a boss-level existence that suppresses the entire third grade. Coupled with the influence of last year's championship, this year's Ravenclaws are extremely concerned about every point they get in class.
Even the usually shy Hughes started trying to get points in the history of magic. This semester, the students in Ravenclaw were not generally united.
"Professor Victor is as generous as ever, but we are under extraordinary pressure this semester."
Although he still had something to do in the office, Andrew couldn't leave the students in the same school and run out at this time. He waved his hand and said, "This is not something that can be accomplished by one person, especially our third grade. Miss Granger has won two consecutive awards." She ranked first this year, and looking at her performance, I have no doubt that she can continue to win the first place.”
"We are there for other subjects, just keep these two subjects in mind, Tyler!"
After some exchanges and cheers, everyone dispersed one by one. Andrew and his roommates hurriedly said goodbye, and then quickly ran to the office - next was the body transformation practice and duty, and today's conversation has been delayed by too much talking. Been a while.
"It's a little late today. Let's adjust before practicing. Don't be in a hurry."
Professor McGonagall is already waiting in the office. "According to the current progress, you will be able to transform your whole body by next month at the latest. Are you ready to study what you will do next?"
"I don't have any more plans for the time being, Professor. I'm just going to study the spell system in Wagadu, but I don't have much idea about the development after human transformation."
The series of books given by Durmstrang, not to mention the reading threshold issue, most of them had nothing to do with transfiguration, which was quite a headache. He had to put it aside and study slowly, focusing on Wagga, which was the best to start with. Learn the art of transfiguration.
"Well, it's a good idea, but it's time to put your own magic research on the agenda. As for small branches like Animagus, make preparations for weather divination next summer vacation before starting. After all, thunderstorms are needed to complete it. "
"Yes, Professor," Andrew nodded seriously, "But Professor, I still don't quite understand. Apart from the fact that Animagus can cast spells without a wand, is there any difference between Animagus and ordinary human body transformation?"
He has always been curious about this - after all, the information in the book is not detailed enough. There are only seven legal Animagus appearing in a world, so there is really no accurate information.
"To be specific, the difference is really not that big. Most of the time, body transformation is more convenient. As long as you have enough body transformation skills, you can easily disguise yourself as a chair or something else, or even a wand. It will also blend in, which is much more convenient than a fixed Animagus.”
Professor McGonagall explained very gently, "If I have to talk about advantages, Animagus is more hidden and difficult to be discovered. It is easier to transform after learning. In addition, I don't know if it is an advantage. , under the Animagus, the wizard's resistance to abnormal conditions will be frighteningly high. It can even be said that as long as the transformation is restored, all the curse effects will disappear, but I have only tried most of the curses that can be lifted."
Because the number of people is so small, even this important information has to be guessed by the professor himself.
"It seems to be somewhat useful, but..."
"But not much, right, Taylor?"
The professor also shook his head, "I haven't heard of many wizards who use Animagus to fight. To be precise, I can't think of anyone who would give up the advantage of the wand and choose to fight in Animagus form."
That's true - being able to cast a spell turns out to be an Animagus's resistance? And when there are so few people? In theory, wizards who can learn Animagus are not that stupid.
"But no matter what, let's learn it," the professor smiled. "At least you won't have any regrets. After all, it's a very troublesome ritual magic. It's also a great experience. I'm afraid you won't have so much free time in the future. This ritual magic is completed.”
"Yes, Professor."
"Okay, there are about seven minutes left, let's start your practice today."
——
"Today's mission has been completed very well."
Andrew piled up the documents and looked at his pocket watch. He still had about twenty minutes to rest.
After filling up on some snacks, he hid as usual, waiting for his other self to time travel - due to the transfiguration training during this period, he could even read magazines inside.
‘Professor, there are so many transfiguration magazines here. Unfortunately, only the ones on transfiguration today have some reference value, and the rest are really useless... Very good, it’s over. ’
Feeling his departure, he put the magazine away, opened the door and walked out.
‘I cleaned up my desk and prepared to go to the next class. I thought, it was, well, Transfiguration.’
Andrew was surprised to find that he seemed to arrive at the classroom later than the professor - but it was okay, the professor would forgive him for being a little late in the Transfiguration class.
He began to clean up his desk, but at this time, there was a knock on the office door.
“Come in.”
The door was opened, and a professor who rarely appeared in the office appeared.
Andrew had heard of the professor for a long time, but had never seen him - Professor of Divination, Sybil Trelawney.
“Hello, professor, what’s up?”
Andrew asked - he was going to try hard and quickly to perfunctorily get the matter over with, because Professor McGonagall really scolded this person in the office.
Of course, the fact that this professor was not a human being and predicted the death of a student every year was also one of the considerations.
"I came to Minerva to report the situation. The students of her college were extremely rude in my class and even had a quarrel with me!"
"This is incredible, professor."
"Yes, this is incredible. She even said that my class was a waste of time and left with her schoolbag!"
? ? ?
Which student is so fierce?
"That's the one, Granger, yes, Hermione Granger. She is a student who has no divination qualities. She is too worldly and is completely unsuitable for the noble art of divination!"
"I know it very well, professor," Andrew said solemnly, "I will soon expel her from the divination class and make up for the detention she deserves."
"That's great."
Professor Trelawney said sincerely.
"Don't worry, professor," Andrew promised, "I will deal with it soon."
As he spoke, he picked up his schoolbag and went out, and Professor Trelawney followed him out.
"Let's go to Filch. I'm going to put her in detention!"
"Sorry," Andrew smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry, professor. Unless you specify the content of the detention, I can only assign it."
This matter was of course handled by Professor McGonagall, and he supported Professor McGonagall without reservation.
"I assigned her to help Professor Snape."
"Sorry, professor," Andrew showed an apologetic expression again, "She has been expelled from the class. Unless you provoke her in person, you cannot assign students who are not yours to participate in detention. If you plan to withdraw the expulsion order, you need to make a written application..."
...
"Forget it, it's a bargain for her."
Professor Trelawney gave up angrily. She finally gave up the troublesome written application and left directly.
'There's a quarrel. Is Miss Granger going to give up useless subjects? It's only been a month. Is the pressure so great? But as for quarreling with the professor... forget it, it depends on Professor McGonagall's opinion. '
He didn't know the specific situation-but he could eat melon at noon, after all, there were students going to divination.
‘I have to report to the professor - ah, damn, I’m really late this time!’
