Chapter 42 Transformation Club

Penello looked at Feeney in surprise when he heard Feeney's name, and then froze, probably thinking about the rumors he had heard about Feeney.

"Are you that little Phineas?"

After saying that, Penello suddenly understood and hurriedly explained,

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it like that, I..."

Obviously, this senior was apologizing for her stunned look and surprised look.

Feeney shook his head and said,

"Senior, you shouldn't have any opinions on me because of the rumors about my brother and my family, right?"

Penello shook his head hastily.

"Of course not. I am a student of Ravenclaw. I naturally know that I shouldn't offend an innocent person because of other people's affairs."

Feeney nodded and asked,

"Then why did senior sister apologize to me? You didn't misunderstand me, nor did you reject me. You were just a little surprised when you heard my name. There is no need to apologize at all."

Professor McGonagall on the side said,

"Filius is right, Mr. Black, you are really suitable for Ravenclaw Academy. Okay, let's sit down first. The others will be here soon,"

"Good evening, Penello,"

A taller boy with red hair walked in. When he saw Feeney, he was stunned for a moment, and then said,

"You must be new to the club. I'm Percy Weasley. You have a nice chair."

Feeney shrugged and said,

"Hello, I'm little Phineas Black, I assume you're Cousin Molly's child?"

The Black family is not only a symbol of wealth and antiquity in the magical world, they are also representatives of pure blood. It can be said that all pure-blood families in the magical world today have some kinship with the Black family, but the distance is different. The Malfoy family, the Baronton family, and the Weasley family are obviously relatively close.

Among them, the Malfoy family is obviously closer, but the Weasley family is still okay. Arthur Weasley is the son of Cedrella Black, and is considered the great-grandson of Finny's uncle. He is also Finny's. He is a nephew, but because Cedrella Black was removed from the family, it can only be calculated through Molly Weasley, and Molly is Finny's cousin, although it is a bit far away.

Percy's expression changed when he heard Feeney's words. In fact, he also knew the relationship between his family and the Black family. However, Feeney's reputation in the magical world is not good now. Of course, the reason why Feeny has such a comment is because It was caused by his table-shaking reports a few years ago.

The Ministry of Magic has always been controlled by pure-blood wizarding families, even if it is not completely controlled, it will have some influence, and Percy happens to really want to work in the Ministry of Magic.

Therefore, one can imagine his attitude towards Finny. After learning of Finny's identity, Percy never said a word to him again.

Finny was not surprised by this, and shrugged his shoulders and didn't care. He was now used to such a cold and ignoring Finny's attitude, as long as it wasn't the vaguely exclusive and targeted atmosphere in Slytherin House. .

"Percy, why do you feel uncomfortable being related to the Black family? This is not what your Weasley family does."

A blond-haired, slightly bald boy walked in. He was a senior from Slytherin House.

This is a descendant of a branch of the Malfoy family, so he is Finny's nephew. Of course, they are not directly related. He is also one of the few people in the academy who does not take part in the recent attitude towards Finny. one of the things,

"You didn't have this level when you were in first grade, Percy. Don't look at a person because of his family."

Another boy also walked in, it was Selwyn from Ravenclaw House. Yes, he was a member of the Selwyn family who was friends with Feeney, but his talent was not among the Selwyn family. It's pretty good, so I came to Hogwarts instead of Skull.

"Long time no see, little Master Phineas."

After Selwyn made a sarcastic comment to Percy, he nodded to Feeney and said,

"Long time no see, William."

Feeney replied calmly, William was not a direct descendant of the Selwyn family, but someone who had a good relationship with Feeney was indeed a direct descendant of the Selwyn family. Therefore, he did not need to maintain any extra respect for William. You know, although the Black family is sparsely populated, it is still a family on the same level as the Selwyn family. As the sole heir and current patriarch, Feeney is much more powerful than William in terms of status.

"Okay, I think you all know each other. Our topic today is the latest article in "Transfiguration Today". The author has some new research on the reduction spell here, which is worth talking about,"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Feeney and said,

"I suggest you order this magazine for a few Galleons as well."

As he spoke, he was about to hand a new magazine to Feeney, but Feeney refused. He took out this issue of the magazine from his robe pocket.

"I've always ordered this magazine, Professor."

Penello said with a smile,

"Professor McGonagall occasionally helps revise the manuscript for Transfiguration Today."

Afterwards, Professor McGonagall used this article to explain to everyone the new applications and discoveries of the Restoration Curse in a simple and easy-to-understand way. After the discussion, he also explained some new theories of transfiguration to everyone, which was of great help to Finny. As he listened to the lectures, the experience of transfiguration on the system panel was also increasing, and it wouldn't take long for him to be upgraded.

"Okay, Mr. Black, if I remember correctly, you have astronomy class after today. It's almost time,"

After Professor McGonagall finished teaching something new, she said to Feeney,

Only then did Feeney remember that he had an astronomy class in the Astronomy Tower at the end of the day. He hurriedly got up and said hello to Professor McGonagall and left Classroom 21.

Astronomy was the least magic class that Finny took at Hogwarts.

In this course, all the little wizards need to do is to watch the starry sky through an astronomical mirror under the guidance of the professor, and understand the various planets, satellites, and their relationships and directions, so as to prepare for astrological divination. Of course , like divination, astrology divination also requires talent. If you don’t have talent, you basically can’t learn anything.

What makes Feeney feel the most uncomfortable is that there is no starry sky model in the astronomy course. The professor uses his fingers to determine the specific positions of the planets, and the students guess the general direction to observe. This obviously has great disadvantages. And loopholes, because no one knows what the other person is talking about at that moment.
