The Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is huge.

Even though it is inhabited by centaurs, werewolves, and even trolls, they have their own settlements and even have enough permission to patrol the entire forest.

However, the area in which they actually live occupies only a small part of the Forbidden Forest.

More of the place here maintains a primitive appearance untouched by the traces of intelligence, and for werewolves and centaurs, more places are like regular hunting grounds except for their own fixed territory.

They will hunt the necessary prey there, but they will never interfere with the ecology over there.

This has been the case for generations, and they have followed this lifestyle since they first chose to settle here.

Sometimes, even the sapient people who inhabit the Forbidden Forest find it difficult to spot, and there is a primitive cave in the place hidden by the trees.

There weren't even those domineering eight-eyed spiders here, some were just some seemingly ordinary small animals.

'Buzz Buzz'

When Connor and Isobel lifted the old roots and walked into the cavern, the sound of wings vibrating at high speed echoed in their ears.

It's like a wasp.

But it's not just the silvery bees.

As Isobel looked around, she saw other animals.

Hounds, squirrels, crows, butterflies, bobcats, deer, bears.

They don't have much in common physically, but the silvery white color that seems to be the same brings an eerie atmosphere.

Silver-white dog.

It seems rare, but there doesn't seem to be anything unique about it.

Silver-white squirrels, which you can't find in the wizarding world.

But when these things appear in the same place, the visual impact is hard to describe.

Speaking of which, the guy next to her seems to have a kind of cat that is exactly the same in color and eye color.

Thinking of this, the girl's eyes were already on Connor, but unfortunately, she found that the other party was also looking at her.

"How's it going, is your body okay?"

Before Isobel could ask more, the sudden question interrupted her train of thought.

"Actually, you don't have to follow me here, the matter itself has nothing to do with you."

"It's just curiosity."

It's not an excuse, she really thinks so.

After defeating Peter Pediru, the rest of the story was clearly not something she could worry about.

The stinky rat is now under Snape's supervision, and although it certainly won't die, it is foreseeable that there will be something he will 'enjoy' in the future.

"I'm also idle and don't have to go to class."

After all, it's the weekend, and after returning to her 'job', she still has a lot of free time.

"You don't have to worry about my side of the problem, as a wizard, you should understand, right? Mere skin trauma is nothing to us. ”

"Yes."

However, Connor is just asking casually, just come along.

"While you might be interested in Quirrell's current state, I have to give you some advice."

But it's not Quirrell that I'm asking now......

Although he wanted to say this, Isobel, who realized that he had missed the best topic, found that he could not ask more questions.

"Be mentally prepared, Professor Quirrell may not be in good shape."

This is not good...... How bad is it?

When Isobel had this question in his heart, he saw that the animals that had been around him were scattering around.

They had formed a circle, apparently forming a silver-white wall while watching, blocking what was behind them.

And now, as the silver-white critters dispersed towards the surroundings, a conspicuous 'thing' in the distance was revealed.

It was a horse-shaped creature, but it didn't look like a normal animal.

It is flesh-colored and does not have any fur.

This is...... Mankind?

A horned human head attached to the body of a flesh-colored horse?

And after seeing the 'thing' in its entirety, Isobel suddenly felt something churning in her empty stomach.

Should I be glad I didn't eat, or should I regret that I shouldn't have been here?

No matter how calm Isobel was, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"I've said it all, you have to be mentally prepared."

"What the hell is that?"

"It's our former professor."

Slowly walking in front of her, Connor just blocked her view.

"You can go outside the cave and wait."

“…… There's no need for that. ”

After calming his mind again, Isobel shook his head slowly.

"Get out of the way, I just feel a little unacceptable for a while...... If you want to go back to the roots, it's just that I have a little insight in this area. ”

"In fact, these are similar to the after-effects of deformation failure."

"I know, it's just that this combination makes me feel a little uncomfortable......"

Actually, Isobel has already put it quite tactfully.

This is not as simple as the so-called 'some discomfort', when the human head is attached to the animal's body, this already causes a certain strong disgust, and when the so-called animal body behaves more like the human body, the discomfort and disgust go directly to the peak.

And now, Quirrell was in that state.

He resembled a horse, but with human hands and feet, and at the same time, a horn of flesh stretched out of the skull that seemed to be sewn on.

"Unicorn ......"

Upon seeing the horn, Isobel had clearly guessed something.

"Is he trying to turn himself into a unicorn?"

"That's half right, but he didn't do it voluntarily."

Walking slowly to the teacher's side, Connor just looked down at the pitiful-looking wizard.

"He was forcibly doused with unicorn blood and cast a powerful Transfiguration Charm."

In the perception of wizards, the so-called Transfiguration Charm is actually not a 'quality' difference.

The only definition is the individual.

It's like a wizard who can freely transform into a mouse, even if it doesn't involve the Animagus, it's easy to turn a person into a ferret or something.

As for the so-called Fantastic Beasts, it can be easily done with just an introduction.

But that's not the problem now.

"Normally, when the caster disappears completely, most of the spells he casts will be invalid, but he is stuck in unicorn blood."

When the Transfiguration Spell failed, a human like Professor Quirrell should have been restored to his original state, but due to the interference of unicorn blood, he became such a human and ghost.

"In addition, his body is at its limit."

"But you brought him here anyway."

"Yes, he can't die here, after all."

Not under any circumstances...... At least he had to be a witness.

Connor then slowly drew his hazel twig wand.

"I've got to have an operation next, if you're not scared, do me a favor?"
