Chapter 38 Transfiguration Class (Part 1)

"What you have to do is protect yourselves and not go where you may encounter them, because you will not be their match."

"But,,,"

"Okay, Mr. Black, I think you and I know very well that those practical spells can't trouble you. So, what questions do you want to ask me?"

Feeney was stunned and said after a moment,

"Okay, professor, I want to ask, do you know the history of this office? I want to know about this ancient castle."

After hearing this, Jonathan looked at Feeney deeply and said,

"Although I don't know what you are looking for, I can still tell you that among the offices in Hogwarts Castle today, only the principal's office, the staff lounge, and the administrator's office have always been offices. The other offices They were all built slowly later. If you want to find some historical offices, you might want to ask Dumbledore. His office has existed since the founding of the school.”

Feeney was stunned. He didn't expect that he just asked a professor for this important clue. If what Jonathan said was true, then Ravenclaw and even the offices of the four founders were hidden by them. got up.

Of course, Feeney would not take everything Jonathan said seriously. After all, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors at Hogwarts were all problematic.

Although there is no problem with Professor Jonathan's teaching, and it is even much better than the previous professors. Of course, this is what I heard from senior students in other houses. Slytherin is the house that most rejects Feeney, so naturally it will not Someone was chatting in front of Feeney, and their first reaction when they saw Feeney was to leave.

The best way to not believe something is to find the truth, which can also be said to be to find evidence to prove that you are right or wrong.

Next is the history of magic. Professor Binns, the professor who teaches the history of magic, is obviously not suitable to ask this question. Although, maybe he will know the answer that Feeney wants.

However, no one can expect a soul who has forgotten even his own death to recall the rumors and legends in Hogwarts Castle.

Then, the professors that Feeney can find are very limited. First of all, those who have not handed over to him are definitely not acceptable. After all, his reputation in the magic world...

The remaining professors, namely the deans of the four colleges,

There is only one class on Tuesday, which is Transfiguration in the afternoon, taught by Professor McGonagall.

As the most serious professor at Hogwarts, her classes may not be very rigid and more lively, but they must be the least free.

"No matter what you want to do with transfiguration, no matter how advanced your transfiguration is, please remember that Gamp's basic transfiguration law we mentioned in the last lesson is a basic transfiguration principle in the magical world."

"We can transform objects or create something, but please remember the five exceptions to Gamp's basic law of transformation. We cannot transform food. Even if we transform an object into food, its essence is not No change."

"We cannot conjure magic items because they themselves possess magical fluctuations, which cannot be simulated by transfiguration."

"We cannot conjure magical animals. Just like magic items, they themselves have their own magic fluctuations."

“We cannot conjure things that do not exist because they are not in our knowledge.”

"In the end, we can't conjure a living person because that would change the world."

Professor McGonagall was walking down the aisle of the classroom while briefly explaining the basics of transfiguration.

Perhaps it was because Gryffindor lost to Slytherin in the Quidditch match not long ago, and she was not in a very high mood.

"Of course, there are actually many types of transformation spells, and what you need to do now is to practice the simplest transformation spells, as for the more advanced transformation spells, summoning spells, human body transformation spells, and Animagus spells. That’s not what you need to know now.”

In fact, of course, there are more than just these transformation techniques. Magic such as the Disguise Charm is essentially a part of the transformation technique.

"However, you still need to know something. The larger the object you transform, the more magic power is required and the shorter the duration. Vice versa, the smaller the object, the smaller the magic power and the longer the duration."

After saying this, Professor McGonagall looked around and said loudly,

"Now, you need to continue to connect with the task I assigned in the previous class, turning matches into needles. Remember, you need firm belief. The more detailed the details of the object in your mind, the easier it will be to transform it."

Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and a large number of matches flew up from the podium behind her, and then landed in front of the little wizards. Except for Feeney, there was nothing in front of him.

"As for Mr. Black, judging from your performance in the last class, you are already proficient in using the Transformation Spell. Therefore, you can now try to learn the upgrade of the Transformation Spell, the Transformation Spell."

The transformation spell is the basis of transformation. As long as you imagine the object that needs to be transformed in your mind, you can use this spell to cast transformation.

However, the transformed item will not last too long, nor will it have the characteristics of that item. It is more like an illusion-shaped spell that changes the appearance, and the transformation spell must be more precise.

Just like the magic that Professor McGonagall used to turn the desk into a pig in the first class, it is a transformation spell. Although the transformation spell can also do the same thing, the pig that appears in that way is not alive and will not There is corresponding wisdom, and the transformation spell can,

Although the transfiguration spell cannot change the nature of the item, the transformation spell can change the form of the item. As long as the magic power is sufficient, it can even maintain that shape forever.

Hearing this, Feeney nodded and opened the "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration" written by Emeric Switch, preparing to read about the Transformation Spell.

In fact, Finny has actually started to practice the transformation spell now, and there is no need to learn the theoretical basis anymore.

However, he still needs to maintain his status as a genius in front of Professor McGonagall. Although he is also a genius himself,

But in comparison, a genius who can learn various magic spells faster and can use them skillfully in a short period of time is obviously more talented, isn't it?

What's more, if Feeney wants to change his situation in school, he can only rely on professors. The image of a genius is naturally much more important.

Of course, if this was outside school, then he might choose force, but in school, Feeney still has self-awareness, and using force rashly is not a good choice.
