"Pretending to be Dumbledore?"
"I dont go!"
In the carriage, Kyle quickly threw the envelope to Professor McGonagall, and at the same time cursed in his heart, who had this bad idea?
Pretending to be Dumbledore, you really dare to think about it. What if Death Eaters suddenly attack Hogwarts? Although the probability of this happening is very small, it is not completely impossible.
After all, Voldemort has already obtained the Elder Wand. What if his self-confidence is over the top and he decides to start a decisive battle directly? The first person Voldemort will look for will definitely be Dumbledore. Then wouldn't he be doomed?
And taking a step back, even if the Death Eaters didn't attack Hogwarts, it would be embarrassing enough if he was exposed while pretending to be Dumbledore.
Thinking of this, Kyle even wanted to open the window and jump out and run away.
"Don't refuse in a hurry." Professor McGonagall put the letter back on the table.
"Dumbledore gave you this task by name, which shows that he believes you can do it well, and you are the only one who is the most suitable."
"No, no, no, I think Professor McGonagall can do it too." Kyle refused again.
"I can't." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "I still have to go to class, and I also have to attend the opening party, so I don't have time at all."
"Then Professor Flitwick..."
"They are all the same." Professor McGonagall interrupted Kyle, "Including all the professors at Hogwarts, they are not suitable for this task."
"What about Sirius?" Kyle immediately thought of people outside the school. "I think he is quite idle all day long, teaching Harry about Animagus transformation, but there has been no progress so far."
"No." Professor McGonagall continued to shake her head, "Dumbledore doesn't want too many people to know that he is not in school, including members of the Order of the Phoenix."
"But……"
"Dumbledore said he would give you a satisfactory reward."
"..."
"What reward?"
"I don't know." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "In fact, what I just said is the exact words he said in the letter. If you can make everyone believe that he is still in school, he will issue a letter that will make you absolutely Satisfactory remuneration...you will know it yourself.”
Kyle stopped talking.
There is one thing to say, Dumbledore has always been reliable in what he says...a reward that satisfies him...
Subconsciously, Kyle picked up the envelope on the table.
"You agree?" Professor McGonagall chuckled.
"Besides, I'll take a look first." Kyle opened the envelope and said, "Let's talk about it first. Even if I agree, it's not for any reward. It's mainly because I don't want to see everyone anxious."
"No need to explain."
"I believe you."
"That's right."
The three deans all pursed their lips and agreed.
It won't work if you don't purse your lips. Things haven't been done yet. It would be bad if you laugh.
At the same time, Kyle has also taken out the letter Dumbledore gave him. The content is similar to what Professor McGonagall said, which is to pretend to be him and show up in school. Give yourself a satisfactory reward.
There was also a small bag under the envelope, which contained a bottle of magic potion and a bunch of hair, not too much, but not much. Kyle roughly counted about fifty strands.
But to be honest, it is not easy for a man of Dumbledore's age to be able to cut off so much hair.
There is also a small note inside.
"Use it in transformation, remember to put it in the box Nico gave you for later use.
"Also: It shouldn't be difficult for you to get Polyjuice Potion, so I just prepared one bottle. (Don't go to Severus, he doesn't know what I'm doing.)"
"Good luck."
"Ha, you really think highly of me." Kyle picked up the bottle and took a look.
This amount can probably last for about two hours, just enough to last through the entrance banquet in the evening.
How stingy? Didn't he think that it would take a month to brew the polyjuice potion, and African tree snake skin was not easy to get? What if someone came to see him during this period.
Kyle shook his head and put the bag aside.
Another thing he was more concerned about was that Dumbledore didn't seem to tell Snape about this, including escorting the students today, and he was the only dean who didn't come.
Are there any other arrangements? I'm still worried that he will reveal the secret... I shouldn't. With Snape's level of Occlumency, Voldemort should not be able to see through it.
Kyle frowned, but he still couldn't guess what Dumbledore was thinking.
But this way, he would be in a bit of trouble.
Originally, Kyle was thinking of asking Snape for the Polyjuice Potion, but now that he had to keep it a secret, this method wouldn't work.
Or you can go to Slughorn's place. Kyle remembered that when he started school last year, in order to demonstrate his superb potion skills to the students, he boiled a large pot of polyjuice potion.
Maybe this process will be the same this year.
Or you can go to Fred and George. They had Polyjuice Potion in their store before. Although it was destroyed once by Death Eaters, they should still have it in stock... After all, this kind of potion is very troublesome to brew and takes a long time. It also takes a long time, so usually potion merchants use the largest crucibles, making a lot at a time and selling them slowly.
And Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes is so big and has so many varieties, it's impossible to put them all on display.
If there is none, he can also go to Dean Sacia... Of course, this cannot be purchased in his own name.
Kyle didn't realize at all that when he was thinking this, he had already tacitly agreed to help.
The three deans looked at each other and smiled, and they all made a tacit agreement not to mention this matter again.
The train continued to travel towards Hogwarts, and the time soon reached noon.
The cart selling snacks creaked and stopped at the door of the box.
"Kids, do you want to buy something to eat?"
Professor McGonagall opened the box door.
"Oh, Minerva." The old witch pushing the cart looked a little surprised. "It seems that the rumors are true. You will also take the train today."
"Yes, to protect students." Professor McGonagall said.
"That's great. Do you want to buy anything? I guarantee the licorice wand will taste exactly like it did sixty years ago."
"That's indeed what I like to eat." Originally, Professor McGonagall had no intention of buying anything, but after hearing what the other party said, she couldn't help but buy a few licorice wands.
Then the cart squeaked and stopped in front of the box in front.
Professor McGonagall closed the door and handed out the licorice wand to everyone.
"Thank you, Professor," Kyle said, then put it aside.
In addition, he also noticed that Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout also made the same move. Apparently they didn't like this snack that much.
"She's right, the taste is indeed the same as it was sixty years ago." Professor McGonagall took a small bite of the licorice wand and said with a smile.
"Sixty years ago?" Kyle asked curiously: "Was she on the train at that time?"
"Even earlier." Professor McGonagall explained: "In fact, she had been working for a long time when I was in school, and there was almost no change between her then and now."
"Then she must be over a hundred years old." Kyle glanced outside the box in surprise.
"At least one hundred and seventy years old." Professor McGonagall said, "Because when Dumbledore was in school, she was also the sales witch on the train."
"Then she takes really good care of herself." Kyle muttered.
Her appearance has not changed in sixty years, so it must be considered well-maintained.
"Kyle, it will be a long time before we arrive at Hogwarts, don't you buy something to eat?" Professor Sprout took out a few pies, "fennel and beef filling, if you like, I can Give you one."
Not just her, Professor Flitwick also prepared lunch, which was apple pie, but there was only one, but he generously said that Kyle could share half of it if he liked it.
"No, no, I have them too." Kyle smiled and rejected their kindness.
Although this time he was suddenly dragged onto the train without any preparation, he still had a suitcase.
In the shocked eyes of the professors, Kyle dragged out a whole cured ham, which was too big to fit on the small table in the private room.
"Did you... take this with you?" Professor Flitwick couldn't help but ask while holding his apple pie.
"Ah, a little snack." Kyle said casually.
This is not over yet. After the cured ham, there is flour and water. This was originally prepared for the moon-crazy beasts. Although they can eat the herbs grown in the box, they occasionally need special meals. The function of the flour is to roll the food into balls. Easy to dry...he learned this from Newt.
But now these just come in handy.
Under Kyle's command, the flour and water were mixed together and stirred continuously. Soon, the dough was automatically divided into small pieces and turned into round pancakes.
Suddenly a small ball of flame appeared in the air, and the pancakes were slowly turning on the flame.
"Gublai Fairy Fire!" Professor McGonagall, who was well-informed, quickly recognized the origin of the flame.
Her voice rose slightly, "You use this precious magic item to bake pancakes?"
"Yes, magic is meant to make life easier." Kyle nodded and said naturally: "And this thing is very efficient."
Just like he said, in just a few minutes, the surface of the dough turned beautifully brown.
Afterwards, several slices of ham lined up over the flames and jumped into the dough that automatically separated from the middle.
Since it is cured ham, there is no need to add seasonings.
"Professor, do you want to try it?" Kyle handed a meat pie to Professor McGonagall.
Professor McGonagall subconsciously took it and took a bite.
To be honest, the taste is not that good, but it is okay, and because of the Gubulai fairy fire, this pancake has some extra points.
Even for her, it was her first time to eat pancakes baked with Gublai's fairy fire. This feeling was quite wonderful, and there was a strange luxury.
At this moment, Professor McGonagall somewhat understood why Dumbledore wanted Kyle to replace him.
In a sense, the two of them are quite similar. For example, they can always do some puzzling things...or to put it more bluntly, their brains are abnormal.
There are only a handful of wizards in the entire magical world who possess the Gubler Fairy Fire. One by one of these people, they all carefully preserve it as a treasure. Apart from Kyle, there is probably no one who can take it out to bake pancakes. Two people.
Professor McGonagall looked at Kyle. He had already divided the remaining two meatloaf between Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout, and was now busy again.
Only this time he didn't use Gubulai Fairy Fire, but used an ordinary fire magic. A few wisps of flames surrounded the dough, distributing heat evenly.
"Why did you change your method?" Professor McGonagall asked curiously.
"Ah, I just remembered that I used Gublerite fire to burn Dementors before." Kell said, "If I use it to heat food again, it will taste a bit strange."
The box fell into silence instantly.
Professor Flitwick looked at the half-eaten meat pie in his hand, then looked at Kell, his face fell, "Why didn't you say it earlier."
"I just remembered it too." Kell said, "It's okay, this kind of fire is very clean, eat it with confidence."
"Uh... I'd better eat my apple pie." Professor Flitwick said.
It would have been better if Kell didn't say it, but he was a bit strange after saying it.
The remaining two professors also put the things in their hands on the table.
"Then don't waste it. Take it back to Hogwarts and feed it to Fang. It's not picky."
...
While Kyle was busy, Professor McGonagall looked at him and suddenly asked, "By the way, you mentioned that Sirius was teaching Potter Animagus?"
"Yes, it's said that it's to give him an extra self-protection ability." Kyle nodded and controlled the flame to rotate evenly under the cured ham.
"It's only been a month, and there's no progress at all... Of course, this has little to do with Sirius, but mainly because Harry eats mandrake leaves as snacks.
"I estimate that he has eaten at least half a pound of mandrake leaves. "
The prerequisite for learning Animagus is to hold a mandrake leaf in your mouth for a month, but Harry couldn't even last a day.
The longest time was eight hours. He spent a day carefully. He had to drink porridge for dinner and swallow the leaf when he went to bed.
It was because Sirius's family was well-off that Harry could eat the expensive mandrake leaves as snacks.
"Speaking of this..." Professor McGonagall asked, "Are you interested in learning this magic? I believe your basic ability is definitely no problem. If you want to learn, I can teach you this semester."
"Animagus?" Kyle was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "Forget it, I'm not interested."
"Not interested?"
"It's mainly useless. "Kyle raised his head and said.
If Animagus can turn him into a magical animal, then Kyle will learn it no matter what.
Not to mention top animals like dragons and leopards, even if he turns into a Niffler, he has the ability to easily pass through gaps.
But if it's just an ordinary animal, the attraction is not that great.
Before, Kyle thought that the biggest role of Animagus was its concealment. He could turn into an animal to get information, or escape when he couldn't beat the opponent.
But he couldn't use it in either of these two situations.
A Niffler or a Bowtruckle could also help him get information, and it was safer and more concealed.
As for escaping, it was good five years ago, but now... To be honest, there are only a few people who can force him to escape. There are not many wizards, and if he can't run away with the ring, then turning into an animal is useless.
So at this stage, Animagus is a bit useless to him.
And this kind of magic has a biggest limitation, that is, after turning into an ordinary animal, there will be various restrictions, and there is no way to change back immediately.
For example, Rita Skeeter, after she turned into a beetle, an ordinary bottle can trap her.
And Professor McGonagall's tabby cat, if caught by someone, there is no way to change back. At that time, if the other party wants to, they can easily crush her to death.
This limitation is equivalent to finding a weakness for yourself. It is also for this reason that Kyle has been hesitating whether to learn this magic.
Oh, by the way, Ah Animagus is the only known ability to escape from Azkaban.
But Kyle doesn't need this either, he has acquaintances there... maybe they are gone, but he can put another one in.
In short, it is much more useful than escaping by turning into an animal.
Kyle roughly explained it, and Professor McGonagall thought about it after listening, and didn't say anything else.
Indeed, Animagus is of little help to Kyle. Although this magic can detect a wizard's level of Transfiguration, the superb Transfiguration level he showed at Lupin's wedding last time did not need Animagus to prove anything.
Seeing that Professor McGonagall didn't mention it again, Kyle was relieved.
In fact, in addition to these, he also There is another reason that is not really a reason...
Although it has not been truly confirmed, in most cases, the wizard's patronus corresponds to the animagus form.
If the patronus is a cat, then the animagus will most likely be a cat...like Professor McGonagall.
And Sirius, his patronus is a dog, and James Potter's patronus is a stag, which also corresponds to his nickname Prongs.
One can be said to be accidental, but so many are like this, it's a bit hard to say.
In fact, this is nothing, but Kyle's patronus is a jellyfish, an aquatic animal, what if the animagus also turns into a jellyfish.
When the time comes, a transformation and a thud will fall to the ground, how embarrassing.
