Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

Chapter 37 Professor McGonagall's silence is deafening

"Dear Adam, please forgive my grandmother for taking so long to reply to you. After reading your letter, I hesitated for a long time and communicated with Mr. and Mrs. Flamel before finally making up my mind to write these words. .

Before telling you everything, I want to affirm your wisdom and sensitivity. The fact that you were able to track down the Philosopher's Stone through a name that was centuries away from you surprised both the Flamel couple. I'm proud of you, my dear.

Back to the topic, you who have found the information about Mr. Flamel should also know that they are French and come from the same land as your grandmother, who is me. In fact, my great-great-grandfather was the great-great-grandson of Madame Flamel’s brother.

I know that when you read this, you may feel that this kinship is too far away, and I feel the same way. The protagonists of some of the interesting stories they told me when I was a child are already ancestors that are too distant to be traced back to me. We descendants should not disturb the secluded life of our ancestors, so our family has never had any contact with the Flamel couple. ——Until you mentioned that bad premonition before. "

After reading the first letter, Adam was a little shocked.

Nicoléme is actually his ancestor?

Oh, no, my ancestor was the younger brother of Nicolés Flamel’s wife. He and Madame Flamel were still related, but I could only say that I had some relationship with Nicolés Flamel but not much, but it could still be considered a close kinship. .

Continuing to read, Grandma Emma told everything about their family - there is nothing to go into detail, just a detailed summary of their family's interactions with the LeMay couple over the years. As Grandma Emma said, it was basically all distant. The stories of ancestors that are hard to trace back are less and less intertwined as you go down.

What made Adam more concerned was that at the end of the letter, Grandma Emma said that Nico Flamel invited him to visit their home again during the holidays.

Although he didn't know why, Adam wanted to find Nico Flamel again. After all, the Philosopher's Stone would be destroyed this semester, and the Flamel couple would also end their lives of more than 600 years.

The door key given by Nico Flamel did provide him with an effective way to escape at the time, although he didn't need it very much now. Later, Professor Dumbledore gave him guidance and allowed him to go to Fawkes often. There is also a Nico Flamel factor.

He should at least go take a look and see them off for the last time, or if they still want to continue living...

He has quite a lot of magic stones here.

The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the exam date is approaching day by day, making the students more and more irritable.

For Adam, the approach of the exam is not a terrible thing. As the weather gets warmer, he has more energy to review the problems encountered in the year of study after completing the tree magic practice.

"Professor McGonagall, where will the objects casted by the disappearing spell go?"

During the after-school tutoring session, Adam asked a question that he had been curious about for a long time.

"Good question, the truth is...no one knows."

Professor McGonagall said:

"Since the invention of this spell, there has never been a precedent for the object that has been casted with the disappearing spell to appear in front of people again."

"Even a wizard who can apparate?"

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment and looked at Adam deeply:

"My advice is, it's best not to cast a vanishing spell on a wizard."

"Professor, I know that it takes a while for this spell to take effect, and this time is enough for the other party to react and fight back."

Adam nodded:

"I mean, can we explore where the Vanishing Curse leads to in this or a similar way?"

Professor McGonagall paused before speaking, not knowing whether to first clarify that she did not mean what Adam understood or to first explore the last question raised by Adam.

"You can tell me what you think."

"For example, Phoenix and Fox's Apparition should not be restricted by the anti-Apparition spell."

Under Professor McGonagall's somewhat subtle gaze, Adam quickly added:

"Of course, it seems that house elves' Apparition can also be successfully performed in anti-Apparition places, such as Hogwarts."

Professor McGonagall opened her mouth and tried to say something to no avail. After taking a few deep breaths, she managed to clear up her thoughts:

"Adam, maybe I used the wrong words when I taught you before. Not all the underlying principles of magic must be explored clearly. There is nothing wrong with some magic just being applied, right?"

So please let your poor Transfiguration professor go...

Professor McGonagall looked at Adam and tried her best to convey the above information with her eyes.

"Okay, then let's discuss the use of the transformation spell."

Adam sighed, and then turned the page of the notes in his hand when Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief:

"So, regarding the method of using the uncertain deformation caused by lack of concentration during deformation to deform part of the opponent's limbs into alien shapes and thereby incapacitating the opponent...Professor McGonagall?"

"..."

At this moment, Professor McGonagall's silence was deafening.

"Professor McGonagall?"

"I think you have almost mastered the basic skills of the Transformation Spell."

"Professor McGonagall??"

"Remember what you came to me after class last time to ask..."

"Professor McGonagall???"

"Ah, it's the Animagus, how about we discuss this?"

Professor McGonagall jumped onto the table and transformed into an American shorthair cat.

"...Okay, Professor McGonagall."

Adam put down the notes in his hand and stretched out his hands with a pious expression.

There is always a time to try something guessing, but the opportunity to play with a cat doesn’t come around very often.

Don't think wrongly, of course Adam couldn't have any unreasonable thoughts about Professor McGonagall. After confirming with his own hands that there was indeed no difference between the animals transformed by Animagus and normal animals, Adam was once again cursed by the wizard. Shocked by being unreasonable.

There is a saying, knowing what is happening and not knowing why is not without benefits. At least this kind of controllable self-deformation that can retain consciousness, almost no magician will study this.

With this ability, which magician would have the need to turn himself into an ordinary animal?

After all, the most important ability of Animagus is to sneak in, and the target that a mage who can achieve this level needs to sneak into is usually not something that Animagus can fool.

In addition, the same is true for some magic involving time. The only ones who can interfere with time are the legendary great magicians, such as Crowley. However, in the wizarding world, there are a lot of time turners in the Ministry of Magic.

Thinking of the two magic circles in the Shi card and the Hu card that make people dizzy at a glance, Adam deeply felt the happiness that the wizards knew but didn't know why.

I'd better apply for a time turner and study it when the time comes, and then I think it's more reliable to learn the magic of time cards and ruthless cards.

As for now... Animagus is an interesting topic, I hope there will be progress before the end of year exams.

Adam was interested in his animagus due to his patronus form.
