Chapter 64: Human Transfiguration and the Animagus

Angelina came home after lunch, and she told her parents that she would still go home. The third project is not until the end of February, and there is still plenty of time. And even when she gets home, she can turn to her parents for help.

Harry and Daphany remained at Weasley Manor to study clues.

Ron and the twin brothers completed their share of the assignment projected today. In the afternoon decided to play.

"How can you spend all your vacation time on homework? The midday sun in winter is so hard! Fred said.

Now both Daphany and Harry can tell which is George and which is Fred. Angelina gave Fred a scarf for Christmas. Now Fred has to take it with him for whatever he does.

Show affection and share it quickly!

George once said so, and was chased by Mrs. Weasley with a feather duster all over the manor - given that the Weasley Manor could not use the Apparition Charm, the nimble George escaped a beating. Mrs. Weasley was desperate for any of the children in the family to get a daughter-in-law back as soon as possible and make her a grandmother.

Daphine couldn't help but sigh that wanting to hold her grandson is not only a Chinese mother~

Harry mentions that they've cracked the clue to the third project, and Ron and the twins are immediately intrigued.

After learning that the noise box could be opened in the water and wonderful music could be heard, Ron and his twin brothers and Ginny were immediately interested.

Ron and the twin brothers didn't say anything, so they jumped into the river with the music box. They don't have the same flashy magic skills as Daphany, and jumping straight into the river is an easier option. Not far from the manor there is a small lake, or rather a small pond.

The twins and Ron were all smiling when they came up drenched.

Ginny and Mafalda were not so convenient as girls. Luckily, both Harry and Daphany have music boxes. Ginny took Mafalda to take a shower with Daphany's music box. After coming back, the two of them had the same eyebrows and smiles.

"So, big sister and Senior Potter, do you want to go into the water for your third project?" Mafalda said with some excitement: "Are you going to the Black Lake?" I've heard George and Fred say that there are mermaids in the Black Lake! ”

"There are sharks, to be exact!" Harry couldn't help but show off the knowledge he had just gained, and stunned Ginny and Mafalda. Ron was also dumbfounded. However, the twin brothers didn't look too surprised, and Dafanie estimated that the two guys had read a lot of miscellaneous books. I guess I've seen the introduction of mermaids.

"It's not just mermaids, there's a lot of interesting stuff in it!" Fred was excited, "Well, the head bubble spell must be mastered......"

"We've got it all in your hands!" Harry nodded.

"Hmm...... But that's not enough. George and Fred's tacit understanding is always in place: "Although the head bubble spell can solve the problem of underwater breathing, it still lacks underwater action." ”

"It's very cold in February, in fact it's cold even in the summer when it's a little deeper," Fred said, "It's going to freeze in ten minutes." ”

"Is there any magic that can provide mobility and warmth underwater?" Harry couldn't help but ask.

"There's a way to do it, and it works very well but it's very difficult." Daphany said with a smile, and found that not only Harry, Ginny, and Mafalda, but even the twin brothers looked at each other with curiosity. He didn't sell it: "Human Transfiguration!" Transform yourself into an animal that is suitable for underwater life and mobility, such as sharks or crocodiles. ”

Seeing that everyone's expressions were a little wooden, Dafanie continued: "There are two advantages to becoming such a ferocious aquatic creature, the first is to solve the problem of mobility and underwater warmth, and the second is to avoid trouble. ”

"Avoid trouble?" Harry didn't understand the reason.

"Like I said before, there's a lot of creatures messing around underwater. If you just put your head on the spell and swim slowly in the water, those aggressive fish, Grindillo or other little water monsters will definitely come and provoke you. But if you become a shark, or a big crocodile, it's different. Those troublemakers see how far these top meat eaters run. What those little monsters are best at is bullying the weak and fearing the hard! ”

"Hmm!" As soon as Daphany explained, Harry immediately understood and accepted. But then he made a bitter face.

"Human Transfiguration? That's the extra point for the ultimate wizard level exam in the Transfiguration class! George exclaimed. Rao is an honor student, and the twins have not mastered this magic at all. Love books

"Is it Professor McGonagall's magic of turning into a cat?" Mafalda asked with some curiosity.

It was only later that Daphany and Harry learned that Professor McGonagall would basically give a show to the students in their first class every year. I think I want to arouse students' enthusiasm for learning. In fact, it does have some effect, but the Transfiguration class is too difficult after all, and the dark arts are easier in comparison.

"Professor McGonagall's is an Animagus, and it has something in common with human Transfiguration, but it's still very different." Daphany casually explained to Mafalda, "Human Transfiguration can transform into any creature, but it's usually not much different from its body. If the shape of the transformed thing is too different from the main body, the mana consumption will increase, and the larger the gap, the more mana will be consumed. The Animagus does not have this restriction. Someone can even turn into a beetle! Speaking of which, Daphany remembered Rita Skeeter, the name of the Daily Prophet. Because of Daphany's existence, Rita Skeeter didn't dare to write anything too out of the ordinary, so her presence was very low.

"The Anima format requires a lot of preparation and is very complex. And once the deformed creature is determined, there are no extremely special circumstances that cannot be changed. Seeing that Harry, Ginny, and Mafalda were all very interested, Daphany simply said more: "But correspondingly, if you master the Animagus, you won't consume any magic to use the transformation again!" Well, Harry, isn't your godfather here, can you let him show us that? ”

Daphany actually doesn't say much here, ordinary Animagus transformations don't consume mana, but if it's an Animagus transformed into a magical creature, it's an exception. For example, Daphne becomes a bird snake, and it doesn't matter if her body size is reduced, but if she gets bigger, it will consume additional mana after a certain level, and there is a lot of it.

"Sirius, he hasn't woken up yet...... Had too much to drink last night. Harry scratched his head in embarrassment.

Daphany smiled and didn't continue Blake's topic, but turned back to human Transfiguration and Animagus: "Human Transfiguration, on the other hand, is correspondingly less complicated, as long as the magic is enough, and the spell is mastered and practiced, it can be learned." However, it costs mana every time you use it. And in the process of maintaining the transformation, it will also continue to consume mana. Take Harry as an example......" Daphany glanced at Harry, who twisted unnaturally.

"Harry's magic, maintaining Transfiguration should be able to do it in about an hour and a half. Of course, the premise is that it doesn't become too big. For example, if it is a small and medium-sized shark such as a blue shark or a fox shark, one and a half is more than enough. But if it's a large shark like a great white shark, it's estimated that it can barely last for an hour. ”

"That's enough!" Harry nodded happily.

Daphany rolled her eyes, "The premise is that you can learn human transfiguration during this time." ”

"Sister Daphine, you're sure you're going to be a human transfiguration, aren't you?" Ginny stared at Daphany with big beautiful eyes and asked Daphany cutely.

"Of course!" Defanie said as a matter of course.

"Big sister, demonstrate, demonstrate! Ouch......" Mafalda exclaimed excitedly, and then was knocked on the head by Daphany, pretending to be aggrieved, holding her mouth, and even trying to hold back her tears, but it didn't work.

For his little cousin being beaten, the three brothers and one sister all showed no heart and lungs, and they couldn't close their mouths with a smile.

Daphany laughed and scolded, probably because last year was much softer, and this year's freshmen, especially the Slytherin freshmen, were generally not too afraid of themselves. Although this little girl was not very familiar with Daphany in the academy, she was obviously not afraid of her.

Daphany has always been good-natured to girls, especially cute girls. And it just so happens that Mafalda is a rather cute little girl. She looks a little like Ginny, but her face is a little baby fat, and she takes the cute route.

Seeing that Ginny, Mafalda, and even Harry and the others were all looking forward to it, Daphne simply didn't hold it. With a flick of the wand and a turn of his body, there was only a black panther with shiny fur left in place.

"Wow!" Almost all of the young wizards present screamed in surprise.

Daphany transforms into a beautiful panther with a slender body, smooth fur and clearly visible streamlined muscles. A beauty full of wild explosiveness.

But before Mafalda, who was closest, wanted to pet the leopard, Daphany had already lifted her transformation and returned to her original form.

"No, just like that! However, mammals are more volatile. And sharks belong to the category of fish, which will be a little troublesome. Wizards must first have some knowledge of the target of the transformation in order to transform. Of course, it doesn't have to be very profound, and it has promotional significance. For example, if I understand the leopard, then I can change the tiger and lion that are almost the same. I learned about one kind of dog, and I can change most of them. Daphany ignored Mafalda, who looked regretful, and explained the trick of Transfiguration.

"Sister Daphany, will you be an Animagus?" Ginny suddenly asked, "Just now you said that the Animagus is complicated, how complicated is it?" ”

"No!" Daphne opened her eyes and talked nonsense, without any psychological pressure at all. The transformation of the Animagus was a secret to her, and although most of the people present were very reliable people, Daphne still preferred to keep a little secret. At present, the only people who know about Daphine Animagus are Dumbledore, Lockhart and Lupin, except for Elf Sparkle.

Daphne told a few young wizards about the transformation process of Animagus, including the twins, who didn't know this, and listened to them one by one with a demented face. They all talked about living for a long time, and there was such a strange magic.

The first wizard to try this kind of magic would have the best idea of holding the whole of Hogwarts. That's Harry's statement.
