Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 62 Professors' Chat
Since those so-called court wizards did not solve the food shortage problem at that time.

Moon didn't want to know why they were being hunted.

Professor Flitwick also saw what Moon was thinking, so he didn't tell these ancient legends. Instead, he took out a quill and started writing on paper.

"Actually, none of the three existing spells can solve your problem, so I suggest you try to modify a spell yourself. Perhaps it will be effective."

After Flitwick finished speaking, he handed over a piece of written parchment.
-
I grant Mr. Moon Scarlett permission to borrow the book "Spell Secrets: A Method for Transforming Spells."

Filius Flitwick
-
"This is a book from the restricted section of the library. I thought you'd be able to use it."

Moon took the note and glanced at its contents, then looked straight at Professor Flitwick.

"Professor, do you think I can reform the spell?"

Moon's confidence is not very high, and his view of spells has always been from a student's perspective.

He was just responsible for learning whatever the professor taught, and he never thought about modifying a spell.

"Of course, Mr. Scarlett, there are not many people who modify or create new spells while they are still students, but there are some."

Hearing Flitwick say this, Moon could only reluctantly agree.

"Uh, okay."

Perhaps realizing that Moon still didn't quite believe in him, Flitwick smiled and continued to encourage him.

"Remember, only when you know what you want can you know what spell to learn."

Following Professor Flitwick's instructions, Moon thanked him and quickly walked out of the spells classroom.

The bell for the next Transfiguration class has rung.

In the evening, after finishing his pumpkin carving, Moon checked out his first banned book from the library.

The author of "The Secret of Spells: A Method for Transforming Spells" is Balfour Bran.

He spearheaded the creation of the Ministry of Magic's Committee on Experimental Spells in 1593.

This department oversees the development and use of experimental spells.

Balfour Bran had already left the Ministry of Magic when he wrote this book, so this is the summary of a staff member who has been engaged in experimental spells all his life.

After reading the introduction on the title page, Moon became very interested in the contents of the book.

The book is divided into two parts. The first part explains the transformation spell, and the second part explains the creation spell.

"The first step in modifying a spell is to understand its constituent elements, structural framework, and the relationships between its various parts."

After the library closed, Moon returned to the common room with the tome.

But he had just opened the tome when Ron exclaimed in surprise after glancing at the contents on the title page.

"Balfour Bran! I just ate his card before school started."

Ron was talking about the Chocolate Frog card, which also featured Balfour Bran.

"Did he write any books? Dad only said he was a wizard with profound knowledge of spells."

Ron walked over as he spoke, and Moon casually flipped the book open to reveal the title page so that he could see it more clearly.

"Oh, it's about a spell after all. Never mind, I'm not interested."

Ron left after he finished speaking, but his words attracted the attention of Hermione who was sitting not far away.

"Is this a banned book?"

Seeing Hermione carefully sit down opposite him, Moon nodded slightly.

"Then I can... Never mind, or..."

"That's okay. I don't think Professor Flitwick would refuse."

After getting the consent, Hermione's eyes lit up slightly, and then she couldn't wait to read the contents of the book.

"The author of this book did a very thorough research. He was able to break down the spell in such detail."

When most people returned to the dormitory that night, Moon and Hermione also finished reading the first chapter. Hearing Hermione's words, Moon felt the same way.

In the past, when he learned spells, he just had to practice them continuously after knowing the spell words and gestures.

And Balfour Bran broke down every word of the spell, every sound, every subtle gesture.

Even the pronunciation and intonation in different tones are interpreted differently by the other party.

“I think reading this book once is not enough.”

Moon expressed his true feelings.

"Yes, the content is too complicated."

Hermione rubbed her sore eyes and turned to look at Moon again.

"Aren't you studying herbs and plants? Why are you learning spells now?"

"I originally just wanted to research a spell that could make plant fruits grow bigger, but Professor Flitwick insisted that I modify it."

After discovering the difficulty of the basics of spells, Moon couldn't help but complain about the suggestions made by Professor Flitwick.

"Plant fruits grow bigger? Is this what you learned in the Herbal Club?"

“It’s not about studying, but my own research direction.”

Hermione had never joined a club and didn't understand how it operated, so she thought this was something she learned in the club.

"Oh, then what's the point of studying this? Even if the fruit can grow bigger, won't it still be the same shape when planted in the soil?"

Hermione didn't understand Moon's thoughts.

"I just want to feed more people. That's all for today."

Moon said as he put away "Secrets of Spells: Methods of Transforming Spells" and returned to the dormitory.

After hearing Moon's words, Hermione stood there in confusion.

"Let people eat enough? Doesn't his family have enough to eat? Is he the child of a homeless person?"

Moon didn't know what Hermione was thinking. Anyway, he fell asleep quickly after returning to the dormitory.

The next day, Moon got up early and read the first chapter again.

After all the roommates came out, they went to the auditorium together.

At the same time, in the staff cafeteria, Professor Sprout was approached by Professor Flitwick as soon as he walked in.

"Pomona, did you know that Mr. Scarlett wants to study the spell to make plants grow bigger?"

"Of course, I was the one who recommended this child to you. He is very talented in herbal plant magic."

Sprout said happily as he sat down next to Flitwick and poured himself a bowl of oatmeal.

"Really? But I think this kid's talent in wizard duels is even more amazing. He can cast spells incredibly fast!"

"Really? I didn't realize that, but Filius is already a member of my club."

Sprout was very happy because he was the first to discover Moon.

Now another professor has discovered Moon's talent, which makes her unconsciously feel a sense of superiority.

"Oh, don't be like that. It would be a waste if such a promising young man didn't join the [Spell Study Club]. Besides, I even gave him a list of books on transformation spells yesterday."

Flitwick also saw Sprout's expression. In order to prove that Moon was actually more talented in spells, he turned to look at Snape who was sitting next to him.

"Severus, in which grade were you at school when the [Fuchsia] was invented?"

Snape had actually been listening to the conversation between the two professors. At first, he just thought that Moon might really have some talent.

But now Flitwick actually compared him with a stupid little lion, which made his face unconsciously turn cold.

"Third year, Professor!"
