Chapter 8: Woman, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business!
An hour later, everyone's enthusiasm for Transfiguration dropped to freezing point.
Transfiguration is indeed very cool, but if you want to practice it to the level of Magg, who can turn a desk into a pig, it takes a lot of hard work.
After taking a lot of complicated notes, Professor McGonagall tapped her wand lightly towards the desk, and immediately matches fell in front of everyone.
"According to the key points of Transfiguration that I just explained, you can now try to transform this match into a needle!"
Finally, they no longer had to listen to boring theoretical knowledge, and everyone took out their magic wands and started trying.
Charlotte was not surprised either, but he did not try it immediately. Instead, he reviewed all the key points of Transfiguration that Professor McGonagall had explained before taking out his wand and tapping the match.
The next moment, the wooden match immediately turned into a silver sewing needle.
"Oh my god! How did you do that?!"
Charles, who was sitting next to him, screamed after seeing this scene. He had tried two or three times, but not only did he fail, he also lit the match.
Everyone who heard the noise quickly turned their heads, and when they saw the needle on Charlotte's table, they all showed surprise on their faces.
Only Draco Malfoy looked disdainful.
So what if you succeed at the first try? Aren’t you still a lowly Mudblood?
Professor McGonagall walked quickly from the back of the classroom to Charlotte's front. She just raised her eyebrows, waved her wand lightly, and summoned another match and placed it in front of Charlotte.
"Very good, Elvis. Please do it again for everyone to see."
"Okay, Professor McGonagall."
After saying that, Charlotte tapped her wand lightly, and the match instantly turned into a steel needle.
Mag nodded with great satisfaction, and held up the steel needle for all the students in the class to look at, then said loudly:
"Mr. Charlotte Elvis's Transfiguration is excellent, ten points extra for Ravenclaw College!"
"Thank you, Professor McGonagall," Charlotte said.
"Ding! The host's speed in learning Transfiguration broke the fastest record of Hogwarts in the past 2 years. Reward skill points*!"
Hearing the system's prompt, Charlotte was slightly stunned. It turned out that he could gain skill points in this way, and two at that. Before, he had to kill a dark wizard desperately to be rewarded with one skill point.
After being happy for a moment, Charlotte thought again.
The fact that I completed the transformation in such a short time only broke the record of one hundred years. Then who holds the fastest record in the past thousand years?
"Ding~! The host's Transfiguration learning speed ranks third in the thousand-year history of Hogwarts. The top two are Godric Gryffindor and Albus Dumbledore. The host broke the record of Tom Malward Riddle."
It turns out that the first two were these two gods, but it is also amazing that I can break Voldemort's record.
However, this also provides Charlotte with a new idea for gaining skill points.
After Charlotte completed the Transfiguration, everyone in the classroom worked hard, especially Draco Malfoy, for no other reason than to get extra credits for Slytherin.
The House Cup is a very sacred and glorious thing for Hogwarts students.
Compared to the more Buddhist Eagle and Badger Houses, the Snake and Lion Houses would fight for the College Cup at the end of each year.
However, until the end of the class, no one was able to perform Transfiguration completely. Hermione, who did the best, only made the match thinner and its color slightly closer to silver-white.
However, Professor McGonagall still gave Gryffindor an extra point as encouragement.
Next up was Professor Snape's Potions class.
As soon as they entered the classroom and sat down, Hermione came to sit next to Charlotte. Charles, who was a step late, stared at Hermione and said:
"This is my seat. Gryffindors should sit over there."
Hermione looked up and said:
"There is no rule at Hogwarts that states this desk belongs to Ravenclaw, and I think Charlotte would like to sit with a smart and beautiful lady like me."
Charles was suddenly speechless. He looked at Charlotte with pleading eyes, but Charlotte just spread her hands helplessly to him.
"Bang~!"
At this moment, the door of the classroom was roughly pushed open from the outside.
Charlotte subconsciously looked back and saw a middle-aged man in a black robe walking in like a gust of wind. Because of his fast speed, the hem of his black robe half floated behind him, making him look like a vampire.
Snape stood in front of the podium and looked around at the students present.
Finally, his eyes fell on Charles who was still standing in the aisle. Snape frowned slightly and said:
"Mr. Charles Anthony, do you have any complaints about my Potions class?"
Charles was frightened by Snape's cold eyes and quickly found a seat to sit down.
"No, Professor Snape!"
On the first night in Ravenclaw, Charles, who liked to chat with people, learned from a Gryffindor student that Potions professor Snape was a terrifying dark wizard.
Try not to provoke him, otherwise you will die a miserable death.
Snape began to call the roll, and when he read Harry Potter's name he whispered:
"Harry... Potter, our new celebrity at Hogwarts, your name has been remembered by the entire wizarding world since you were born."
The tone of his voice was extremely strange, and his voice was very soft, like a whisper, but the strange thing was that everyone in the classroom could hear it clearly.
And everyone could hear the unkindness in his tone.
Then he tightened his black robe and said in a deep voice:
"First of all, I don't want to see anyone waving a wand around in my class. Secondly, I can teach you how to fill reputation, how to brew glory, and even death, but I don't expect you all to understand the subtleties of potions. I just hope you won't be as stupid as the idiots I taught before!"
After hearing this, everyone sat up straight, as if they all wanted to prove that they were not stupid.
Especially Hermione, she looked at Snape intently, as if she could stand up and answer the questions Snape asked in the next second.
"Potter!"
Snape suddenly called Harry Potter up and said:
"What would happen if you added powdered daffodil bulbs to wormwood juice?"
Harry Potter, who was suddenly called, looked at Snape in confusion. He didn't even hear the names of the two potions clearly. He secretly glanced at Ron, who was also confused, and said with his head down:
"I'm sorry, Professor. I don't know..."
"If you need a bezoar, where would you go to find it?"
"I know, Professor..."
"What's the difference between Aconitum scaphoides and Aconitum wolfsbane?"
"do not know……"
Snape's questions became more and more urgent, while Harry Potter's voice became smaller and smaller because he knew nothing about it.
Only Hermione kept raising her hands, and she was about to raise her hands to the ceiling.
Charlotte sighed softly and quietly pressed her down. In Hermione's puzzled eyes, Charlotte shook her head at her.
Woman, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! .
Chapter 9: Making potions, Malfoy in detention
Snape can be said to be the most tragic character in the original work.
Although he was a good man, he was always misunderstood as a vicious Death Eater. The truth was not revealed until his death.
Everyone then realized that he had been secretly protecting Harry Potter and Hogwarts.
His provocative question to Harry Potter here is actually a very subtle way of telling Harry Potter, I will always love your mother, and even if your father has great malice towards me, I will always protect you.
However, due to his identity, Snape couldn't say it out loud at the moment.
However, due to some preconceived prejudices and age issues, Harry Potter could not understand Snape's painstaking efforts.
At this time, Snape laughed and said:
"It seems that you are just a name for nothing. Don't you ever review the knowledge in the textbook before class?"
Harry Potter bit his lip and said:
"I'm sorry, Professor Snape, but I think Hermione should know the question you're asking, why don't you ask her?"
At this time, Hermione couldn't bear it anymore. She stood up and said loudly:
"The powder of daffodil bulbs added to the juice of wormwood can be made into a very powerful sleeping pill called Death's Web. Bezoar is in the stomach of a cow and is the nemesis of many poisons. Aconitum carmichaelii and Aconitum daffodil are the same plant. They are the common names of a plant called Aconite."
Hermione answered all three questions, but Snape didn't look happy at all. He said expressionlessly:
"Harry Potter, you are rude and talk back to the teacher, deduct one point, Hermione Granger, deduct five points!"
"Why? Did I answer wrong?" Hermione asked unconvinced.
"That's a very good answer, Ms. Granger." Snape said, "But I didn't allow you to stand up and answer questions. You are disrupting the class at will!"
Hearing this, Hermione sat down angrily, while Malfoy, who was sitting at the back, showed a look of watching a good show.
Snape returned to the podium and began his lecture, and the Gryffindor students in the class were called up to answer some very tricky questions. They had heard that Snape would favor Slytherin students, but they didn't expect it to be true.
"Next, I will teach you how to prepare a potion for treating burns. The materials needed are very simple, dried nettles, crushed snake fangs, and porcupine quills. Now, start making the potion in groups of two. The first group to complete will receive ten credits!"
The making of potions requires great care, and any mistake in any step will result in very bad consequences.
At the very least, it would result in a waste of materials, and at worst, it might cost the wizard his life.
Although everyone had taken notes, some people still made mistakes. Snape's angry scolding continued in the classroom. Except for Charlotte and Hermione, and Malfoy and Goyle, everyone else was scolded.
Charlotte was like a precise machine, completing every step perfectly.
Malfoy seemed to be particularly favored by Snape, who not only personally taught Malfoy how to weigh the herbs, but also reminded him when he was about to make a mistake.
Malfoy looked at Charlotte with a smug look on his face.
You lowly mudblood, let's see how you can defeat me this time!
"what!"
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the classroom.
It turned out that Neville Longbottom and Seamus had failed in their potion refining, and the potion in the crucible spilled directly onto the ground. Many people's shoes were corroded by the acidic green liquid, leaving small holes.
That one was even more miserable, with acidic potions all over his body.
Snape stepped forward quickly, waved his wand, and all the scrapped cauldrons and potions disappeared. Then he shouted to Neville:
"Idiot, did you put in the porcupine's quills as soon as you took the cauldron off the fire? Is your head made of elm? I've reminded you many times! Five points from Gryffindor!"
Watching the crying Neville being sent to the infirmary.
Malfoy taunted Harry Potter, "Stupid Gryffindor, you can't even make such a simple potion. You'd better not come here to take classes in the future."
"I finished!"
Just then, Charlotte's voice rang out in the classroom.
Everyone looked up in astonishment, only to see that Charlotte was holding a transparent glass bottle in her hand, which was three-quarters filled with a green solution.
Snape walked a few steps to Charlotte, snatched the glass bottle, opened the bottle cap and sniffed it gently, then picked up Charlotte's crucible, put his finger in it and dipped a little of the remaining medicine.
"Very good, Charlotte Elvis was the first to complete the refining of the burn potion, Ravenclaw gets ten points!"
"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for refining the perfect burn potion, reward skill point*1!"
The system's prompt made Charlotte stunned. She didn't break the record. However, after thinking about it, Charlotte realized that she had no foundation in potions before this.
Being able to refine it all depends on talent.
And many children who originally come from wizarding families will be exposed to this kind of content at an early age, so of course they will learn faster.
When Malfoy heard this, a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
How can it be!
There is still one third of my potion-making steps to be completed. How could he finish it so quickly? I have Professor Snape's personal guidance!
Cheating, he must have cheated!
Just when he was about to say this thought out loud, he saw Snape looking at him with a very cold look.
