Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 11 Malfurion and the New Book

"Ah—ha—"

The next morning, at Hufflepuff's table, Maca yawned sleepily and stuffed sliced ​​white bread into his mouth, forgetting to spread the jam.The school uniform robe on his body was also slanted slantingly by him. At first glance, he put it on at random. This sloppy look may not match his usual neat style.

"Hey, junior brother, why are you so sleepy? Didn't you sleep last night?" The careless Senior Sister Charlotte obviously doesn't care about other people's dresses-although she always dresses beautifully herself.

"Um... Yeah, kind of." Maca nodded listlessly, her eyelids drooping, as if she would fall asleep in the next moment.

"Which little girl are you thinking of?" Senior Sister Charlotte took the opportunity to jokingly asked.

"Well, thinking about you, ha—" Maca replied instinctively, before yawning again.

Miss Charlotte obviously did not expect that this guy could quickly counterattack even when he was half asleep and half awake, and she couldn't help showing the look of "I have taken you".

"Okay! Get awake, class will be in a while." She raised her hand and slapped her behind Maca with all her strength. Maca was so startled that she jumped up, even the bread in her mouth. All fell on the dining table.

"Senior Sister, don't you need to be so cruel?" Maca grinned, and he felt that there must be a red palm print on his back now.

Just then, the owls came.

Maca raised his head and watched the large group of owls flying in the dining room, throwing their parcels or letters onto the recipient's lap.

"By the way, my Malfurion stays in the dormitory all day long (it doesn't even want to go to the school's owl house), except for eating and sleeping, it is almost useless!" Maca suddenly realized that he took pictures. Thigh, "Then why should I buy it? It seems I have to find something to do for it..."

Just as Maca was thinking about letting her own owls go for a stroll, a black shadow flew over from the entrance of the restaurant, frightening the other owls away.

"Huh?" After hearing the sound, Maca raised his head again and saw that his own owl Mafa was swooping toward him, and then like a bomber, he threw a large package on the open space behind Maca, making a "boom" "A loud noise.

"Goo." Marfa yelled, then fell to the table and picked up another slice of bread on the Maca plate.

"Is this the owl you raised?" Senior Sister Charlotte stared at Marfa curiously. "It's really strong. I want to keep one like this too. Where did you buy it?"

"The'giant spider' in Knockdown Alley," Maca replied casually, pulling out a list from the package, "Oh, the book I ordered at Lihen Bookstore is here."

A few days before school started, Maca made a special trip to Lihen Bookstore and ordered some books on potions and herbal medicine.Although the books he ordered can be found in the library, the library books will not allow you to scribble on them.

Charlotte leaned over and took a few glances, and then said in surprise: "Educator, are you planning to finish all Hogwarts courses in the first grade?"

Maca stuffed the book list on the parcel, and while talking about how it was possible, he picked up the big parcel and walked to the lounge-he had to put the books back in the dormitory before class.

As he passed the long table at Gryffindor College, Harry called out Maca.

"Hey, Maca! Hagrid asked me to have tea at his place, are you going?" he asked Maca, waving the note in his hand.

"When?" Maca said.

"This afternoon, around three o'clock!" Harry replied.

"I have a class in the afternoon, you say hello to Hagrid for me, and I will visit him at a later time."

Harry nodded, then lay down on the table and wrote something on the back of the note, then handed it to Hedwig.

This morning was Hufflepuff’s first transformation class.

The professor of the transformation class is Minerva McGonagall, who, like Snape, is a strict tutor.

But unlike Snape, Professor McGonagall treats the four colleges equally, and she will severely punish any student who violates the school rules.

Therefore, although most students are afraid of this senior female professor who is always straight-faced, she is in awe.

I believe that there are definitely not a few students who respect her from the heart.

Professor McGonagall’s teaching methods have always been concise and effective.As soon as the class started, she gave all the students present a horror.

"Transfiguration is the most complicated and dangerous spell in your Hogwarts course." She said, "Anyone who wants to be naughty in my class, I will ask him out and never allow him to come in again. This I have said this with every freshman, and I hope you will keep it in mind as a warning."

Then, she turned her desk into an elk, and back again.

Most of them were attracted by this kind of magical magic, and naturally it was one of them.In fact, Maca is probably the student who can experience the difficulty most among the students present. He has learned this from the "Beginner's Guide to Transformation" before that.

So far, Maca has read several textbooks required by the school, and among them, he thinks the most difficult, I am afraid he will count this course now.

The difficulty of transformation does not only depend on the wizard's research on its principles, it is just a starting point.If you want to be truly proficient in the use of transformation, the biggest difficulty lies in a thorough understanding of the nature of the object before and after the change.

The wizards who learn Transfiguration must not only study the physical properties of objects in depth, but also have the highest possible understanding and control over the magic properties of objects-this is very complex and profound, and it can be said to be endless.

For example, if a wizard who is just getting started can turn a match into a sewing needle of about the same size; then, a master of transfiguration can turn the match into a variety of models, materials, and even textures. And keep it for hundreds of years!

Of course, apart from the difference in accuracy and consumption, the biggest difference lies in its understanding.

This is a very time-consuming long-term research course, and Maca has discovered that there are no shortcuts in it, and it can only be accumulated by daily study and research.

In class, Maca turned a feather assigned to him into a metal lump.He still didn't control the shape of the object very well, but Professor McGonagall nodded at him anyway-for beginners, it is a very good performance to make the object change.

In the afternoon, it was another sleepy magic history class.Professor Bins always used his boring tone to talk about boring major historical events in the magical world.The way of teaching without emotion makes almost all students not interested in this course.

But Maca listened with gusto.Because he discovered that the content that Professor Bins taught was not actually written according to the text, but was sorted out in a very orderly manner, and occasionally there were some content that was missed in the textbook.I believe this respectable Hogwarts is the only ghost professor who carefully prepares his lessons every night.

Of course, this may also be because the ghost does not need to sleep at all, which allows him to spend a lot of time.If you don't do something, you will definitely be so bored that you want to die again.

"I heard that Professor Bins was the professor of the history of magic at Hogwarts during his lifetime, until he accidentally forgot his body when he came to teach one day." Ernie sitting next to Maca Whispered.

"As you said, Professor Bins not only contributed to the teaching career for the second half of his life, but also continued to maintain this extremely difficult persistence even after his death." Maca nodded and said.

"Listen to you, it's true!"

Ernie stunned for a moment and realized that it seemed to be the case.He couldn't help but straighten up his waist and listened to the class seriously, but before long he got down again-the class itself was really boring.

The course in the history of magic may be extremely difficult for other students, but Maca felt that time passed in a blink of an eye.

"Maca, where are you going? Don't you go to the lounge for a little wizard chess?" Ernie said in a surprised way.

The Magic History classroom is on the second floor. The little badgers in the dormitory are all exchanging various gossip information while walking downstairs. Only Maca is stepping up the stairs.

"Oh, I have to go to the library, there are some materials that need to be checked." Maca turned back and said, but there was no pause under her feet, and soon disappeared into Ernie's line of sight following the automatic turning stairs.

The library on the fifth floor of Hogwarts Main Fort is a giant with a huge collection of books.

Here, you can find almost all kinds of magic books that are being released on the market or have been released in the past.Of course, there is a large area here is the so-called "forbidden book area", without the principal or the defense against the dark arts professor's signature slip can not be borrowed.

The administrator of the library is Mrs. Pins, thin, old, and irritable, looking like an old vulture who is irritable because of hunger.

She regards the books in the library as her life and will drive out any students who try to alter and destroy the collection.In her opinion, these precious books are her prohibition. If possible, it is best not to come in.

It was not long after class time now, and there were only a few Gryffindor year-round students in the library—their college did not schedule classes this afternoon.

"...Magic creature...magic creature...here!"

Maca stood on tiptoe, pulled out a book called "Humanoid Fantastic Creature Habits and Origin" from the high bookshelf, and immediately stood there and began to look for it page by page.
