Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

Chapter 33 A small reputation



"Mr. Paz, although what you did to the Sorting Hat the day before yesterday set a Hogwarts record," Professor McGonagall walked to Wright's side, bent down and carefully looked at the silver needle on his desk, " But I think your talent for transfiguration is probably one of the few in the history of Hogwarts."

Professor McGonagall straightened up and looked into Wright's eyes: "I look forward to seeing your name on the Transfiguration Today's Most Promising Newcomer Award in the next seven years."

"Unparalleled transfiguration at this age! Five points for Ravenclaw!" Professor McGonagall loudly gave a score to Wright's transfiguration.

When the bell rang, only Wright succeeded in turning the match into a silver needle. All other students, whether they come from wizarding or Muggle families, have no changes in their matches from before. Even Chang Chu, who had been sitting next to Wright and receiving his personal teachings, could not make her matches deform at all.

For this, Professor McGonagall awarded Wright two more points.

After walking out of the Transfiguration classroom, eating lunch in the auditorium also located on the first floor of the castle, and taking a nap, it was almost time for the first class in the afternoon.

The first class in the afternoon was the Herbology class taught by Professor Sprout, the headmaster of Hufflepuff House. Wright and the Hufflepuff badgers who had attended class in the morning came to the first greenhouse behind the castle. Sprout The professor was standing at the door of the greenhouse waiting for the arrival of the new students.

The first-grade herbal medicine class does not require students to come into contact with any dangerous magical plants. After a simple self-introduction and roll call, Professor Sprout began to teach the students to recognize and cultivate some mild and harmless plants.

Light put on the protective gloves he bought in Diagon Alley, well, they were made of dragon hide.

To be honest, Wright has never understood why dragons have such a low status in the Harry Potter world. Dragon skin is used for clothing, dragon meat is used for healing (if your skin is strong enough), and nerves are used for Wands are made, and even raw dragon livers are sold.

In Wright's mind, the one who suffered the worst was probably the fire dragon imprisoned under Gringotts. It was about to be trained into a dog by the goblins, and it would react like a conditioned reflex when it heard the jingle. fear.

Wright poked the small branch-like plant on the table through his gloves. According to the records in "Thousands of Magical Herbs and Mushrooms" and Professor Sprout's explanation just now, this branch-like thing should be Bai Xian .

"So who can tell me now, what is the role of Bai Xian?" Professor Sprout stood on the podium and asked the students below with a smile on his face.

Professor Sprout is a witch who looks a bit short and fat. The hat on her head is full of patches, and the robe on her body is stained with a lot of mud. However, although Professor Sprout's strength looks weak from the outside, Wright, who has been baptized by Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall today, does not dare to look down upon this pudgy Hufflepuff student. Dean.

Just when Wright was about to raise her hand to answer the question, Chang Chu suddenly raised her hand.

"Very good, Miss Chang Chu." Professor Sprout named Chang Chu's name cheerfully, but just like the first time Professor McGonagall called Chang Chu's name, the pronunciation was not so standard.

"Bixian is a plant with magical properties and has a strong healing effect. Wizards usually use it to make wound healing potions." Chang Chu replied with great momentum, "In addition, use this directly Plants can also help with the healing of superficial wounds. A mixture of scallops and silver powder can be used to treat werewolf bites, while chopped scallops can also be used to make invigorating potions.”

"Very good!" Professor Sprout nodded with satisfaction to Chang Chu, "One point for Ravenclaw."

Chang Chu glanced at Wright provocatively and let out a soft hum.

Wright looked a little confused. What happened to her?

Could it be that he accidentally mentioned that she was previewing the herbal medicine textbook during lunch? Wright touched his nose strangely, shouldn't it be?

After this herbal medicine class is over, today's classes will be over.

At around half past five, Wright and Chang Chu came out of the Ravenclaw common room in the West Tower together, preparing to have dinner in the auditorium on the first floor.

At this time, all the students who were in class had finished class. The four long tables were full of people, and the entire auditorium seemed very lively. The aroma of food filled the air and reached Wright's nose through the door of the auditorium. Wright stepped into the door of the auditorium first, followed closely by Chang Chu.

Some students in the auditorium focused their attention on Wright, who had just entered the auditorium. Even the teachers' seats cast a few glances in their direction.

"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?" Wright calmly walked to the long table of Ravenclaw. He didn't sit next to him until he found two empty seats. Chang Chu asked, his voice still very low.

"What else? It's just what you did in class today that has spread!" Chang Chu didn't seem to be in a good mood. She frowned and then said a little irritably.

casually taking a dish that looked like meat from a strange student and placing it in front of him, Wright continued to ask Chang Chu: "Even if such a thing spreads, why are you in such a mood?" Oops? Do you know the person who just handed me something?"

"It's not all because of you!" Chang Chu said angrily.

"because I?"

"That's right!" Chang Chu suddenly stood up and stared at Wright with a ferocious look. At this time, she was not like a calm and wise Ravenclaw, but more like a passionate and easily emotional Gryffindor.

"Listen, Wright, Wrightpas!" Chang Chu squeezed out these words through his teeth one by one, "I will never allow you to surpass me in the only place I am proud of! Never!"

Then Chang Chu picked up a few slices of bread and left the hall.

Wright sat in a daze, staring blankly at Chang Chu's leaving figure. He couldn't understand what Chang Chu was thinking at all.

Why is she angry? Does this have anything to do with me? Could it be that the only thing she was proud of was herbalism?

And looking back on what he did today, it seemed like nothing special... The levitating spell and primary transformation were not that difficult, not to mention that he himself had gone through a lot of practice. Compared with the last time he covered the Sorting Hat's mouth, Much worse.

But with the exception of Wright, many people don’t see it that way.

There has never been a little wizard who was able to cast a silent spell in the first Charms class, and the little wizard who was able to turn a match into a silver needle in the first Transfiguration class was the only one in the history of Hogwarts. Extremely rare.

One day is enough time for what happened in the Charms and Transfiguration classes to spread throughout Hogwarts. Almost everyone who heard about these two events believed that if nothing unexpected happened, another extremely outstanding genius would be born soon. At Hogwarts, just like Dumbledore once was.

Some dull students did not respond to this, but the more savvy students began to think about how to have a good relationship with Wright. The boy who just handed Wright the food was his first try.

This is why Wright attracted attention as soon as he entered the auditorium.

But some people don't think so.
