Hogwarts: Becoming the White Lord from Breathing

Chapter 21: Flight and Magic Control

Transfiguration and spells are the foundation and basis of duels.

Apart from black magic, Transfiguration is almost the most powerful combat skill and is also the specialty of the most powerful white wizard Dumbledore.

Even if Damon had to choose only one path to study, he would only choose transformation.

Professor McGonagall assigned Damon extra homework on Transfiguration and also asked him to write an essay, which was longer than the ones she assigned to other young wizards, a full 4 inches - Professor McGonagall planned to have him practice turning animals into still lifes, and for this, she needed Damon to write the theoretical essay in advance to ensure that he had some understanding.

"Isn't this what we learn in second-year Transfiguration? I skipped a grade and I really don't know if Professor McGonagall looks down on me or thinks highly of me."

Damon smiled. It was true that he had not yet mastered much in Transfiguration, but with his expert-level Transfiguration talent, he believed that he would be able to complete the seven years of Transfiguration soon.

“I don’t know exactly how long it will take~”

Just thinking about it made Damon happy. He had never enjoyed learning so much before - with talent, interest, and foundation, who wouldn't love to learn?

After saying goodbye to Professor McGonagall, Damon went to the library first and brought back the books he needed for his essay assignment to the common room.

Meanwhile, Harry and Ron were waving anxiously at the matches.

On the one hand, they were so excited about their success in the Transfiguration class that they couldn't help but want to maintain this excellence.

On the other hand, their hearts were drawn to the flying class that was about to begin in the afternoon. Listening to other students discussing their flying experiences, they were extremely itchy.

Seeing them like this, Damon couldn't help but shook his head:

"Remember the three key points I mentioned? There's no point in practicing like this—the transformation of this matchstick isn't even as complete as it was in class."

The two of them felt a little ashamed when they heard this. Due to the incident that happened in the morning, Ron didn't even dare to say anything. Harry said embarrassedly:
"Sorry, Damon, but we're really looking forward to flying lessons."

If first-year wizards were not allowed to bring flying brooms, they would have no idea where to practice by now.

"It's okay, I just saw it and wanted to remind you."

Damon ignored them. He wanted to finish the essays assigned by Flitwick and Professor McGonagall as soon as possible before the flying class started at 3:30 pm. Especially Professor McGonagall's essay, which was six feet long in total. Even for him, it would probably take several hours.

Harry and Ron's expressions became even more strange as they looked at the four professional books piled on Damon's left and his right hand coordinating with his left hand to flatten the thesis papers.

"Sometimes I really think—" Ron finally couldn't help it, "Damon and Hermione are the same kind of people."

"No, of course they are different - I mean, although Hermione is also very good, but haven't you noticed that Damon never forces us to do anything, even if he performs better than Hermione."

"Cool, man, that's pretty bold of you—but I agree with you."

Ron patted Harry's shoulder, and they both subconsciously looked in Hermione's direction. Even Hermione was nervously reviewing Quidditch theory, while eavesdropping on the discussions around her. Harry couldn't help but pray silently in his heart that Hermione hadn't heard what she had just said.

Before half past three, Damon finally finished Professor McGonagall's six-foot essay.

When he actually started writing, he found that it was not that difficult - because of his expert-level talent in Transfiguration, he read textbooks very quickly and memorized them very easily. He could write down a lot of information on the paper after reading it once, which greatly accelerated the speed at which he completed his homework.

After all, he grew up in China and had to use up an ink pen every day when he was in high school. This amount of homework is really nothing.

The weather today was better than ever. When Damon walked from the tower to the venue, a breeze just blew on his face, which was comfortable but not hot. The neatly trimmed lawn was rippling in the breeze, which made him feel very good.

The flying lesson instructor was Madam Hooch, who had short gray hair and yellow eyes like an eagle's.

"All right, what are you all waiting for?" she snapped. "Everyone get to a broomstick. Quick, quick, hurry up."

"Put your right hand on top of the broom handle," Madam Hooch called from the front, "and say, 'Get up!'"

Damon looked at the broom at his feet and said calmly, "Get up."

"call out!"

The broom immediately jumped into his hand, and at the same time, a new line of text appeared in Damon's eyes.

Quidditch - Level 1 (Beginner) 36/100
For beginners of Quidditch, you should be able to master the most basic flying skills, be able to maintain balance on the broomstick and fly simply on the field. You should also have a certain understanding and adaptability of the rules of Quidditch.

Damon raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

He hadn't had any particular expectations of flying, but then he touched the broom and Quidditch skills popped out?
Damon opened the system and looked at the magic points. After five days of breathing, there were more than 10,000 points added to the "account".

From level 1 to level 4, the total number of points is only 11100, so just max it out.

Quidditch - Level 2 (Apprentice) 1/1000
Basic flying skills are no longer a problem for you. Your understanding of Quidditch tactics has improved, and you can cooperate with the team and provide support to your teammates.

【Quidditch——LV3 (Advanced)】1/10000
[You can master some advanced Quidditch flying techniques (quick turns, backwards flight, sudden stops), can perform complex movements in the air, and your ball handling ability is greatly improved]

Quidditch - Level 4 (Expert) 1/1000000
You can perfectly master most flying skills, can handle intense Quidditch matches with ease, and can still maintain decision-making ability under high-pressure situations.

"Hmm?" Damon suddenly felt something different.

Quidditch doesn't matter, but
Damon sat on the flying broom and found that the excessively abundant magic power in his body seemed to have become a little tamer at this moment. This change alone far exceeded the sum of his previous hard training in the Room of Requirement.

Adding a Quidditch point actually makes his ability to control magic stronger?
Madam Hooch, who was walking around the team correcting students' inappropriate movements, saw that Damon had already sat safely on the broom, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She simply ignored him - it was not the time for the little wizard to take off yet, but since Damon had already done it, she naturally didn't say anything.
