After a while, James and Erin managed to get used to walking on four legs. The first thing they learn is to run, not to walk. Because werewolves also use four legs when running.

Erin was running around the fence, and James was chasing his tail and biting, having a lot of fun.

Professor McGonagall looked at James worriedly. Professor Flitwick was already smiling from ear to ear.

Many magical beasts watched this scene curiously, and the unicorn felt that it was very good to give this game to the cubs of the clan to vent their exuberant energy, and the hair that fell off could also be traded with wizards.

"Try it back?"

Professor McGonagall asked.

Both wolves nodded in agreement, recalling Professor McGonagall's teachings, and began to recall their human form in their brains, with clarity.

Soon, their shapes began to change. Everyone backed away and gave them space.

In an unexpected scene, Erin has changed back, but James has changed into a werewolf form.

Everyone, including Dumbledore and Grindelwald, froze. Dumbledore's mouth opened even wider, trying to say something, but his brain hadn't organized the language yet, and it was Grindelwald who threw a candy into his mouth before closing.

"Why did you become like this?"

Erin patted James on the arm and asked.

"I just want to see if the three forms can be converted into each other."

James whimpered, and he was also in a flash of deformation before he thought of it.

"What if I fail?"

Erin still looked at him worriedly.

"There are so many professors here, what are you afraid of?"

James howled under his breath, of course, clearly trusting the professor present.

Under the test of the professors, James's ability gradually surfaced.

They can freely change their form between humans, werewolves, and wolves, because of the effect of [Animagus], they don't have to worry about the problem of torn clothes, and the clothes and accessories on their bodies will become the corresponding patterns on their hair, embellished with silver-white bodies.

To the professor's surprise, James in his werewolf form could use magic, which was a new discovery that shocked the entire wizarding world. They had never heard of anything like this before.

After all, the werewolf wizard under the full moon is completely controlled by the werewolf instinct, and he uses claws, teeth and other sharp weapons to hurt people, and he can't use magic at all, and he can't touch the wand.

Before the transformation, the werewolf wizard hid his wand in a safe place, and damaged his wand when he went crazy, after all, a wand is very expensive.

Admission to new Hogwarts is subsidized, and if you buy another wand, it's not as cheap as the first one. Werewolf wizards are at the bottom of the wizarding world, and it is a problem to support themselves seriously, not to mention excess savings.

Although werewolves can cast magic, most of their magic still relies on a wand, which is too large for a werewolf to grasp and can be easily broken.

And that's the matter of chanting mantras. There is a big difference between the vocalization system of werewolves and humans, and chanting mantras is a problem, and can only be replaced by "woo woo woo" in different tones. ….

Some familiar spells are fine, and you don't need to chant spells to clarify the effect, but some less familiar spells can't help it.

Therefore, the professor suggested that the Hall couple practice silent casting and wandless casting more often, and learn the theory of charms.

The exercise of a spell, from reciting a spell, to reciting a part, to casting a spell silently, moving the mouth without making a sound, and then to casting a spell silently, is a gradual process, a process of deepening the understanding of magic.

From all the mantras to some of the mantras, the parts that are most understood and deeply rooted in the heart are omitted.

Silent casting means that the meaning of the spell is merely a habit for wizards. At this stage, already

The sutra does not require the chanting of spells to cast spells, and there is only one habitual distance left from silent spells.

In fact, at the stage of silent casting, the wizard has already coaxed the opponent by reciting other spells, such as the [Disarming Charm] that is about to be cast, but the [Levitation Charm] is being recited.

After confirming that there were no side effects for the werewolf wizard to learn [Animagus], the Halls already had the idea of letting Lupin learn [Animagus].

James changed back, and after a discussion with Professor McGonagall, he handed over the matter of teaching Lupin to learn Animagus.

Poor Lupin, the [Patronus Charm] has not yet been learned, and another [Animagus] is ushered in.

Soon, everyone left one after another.

Waving goodbye to Goke, James closed the fence gate and returned to his cabin with Erin, closing the gate with it.

The small lamp in the study was on, and the evil woman bird outside the window was awakened by the sudden light, and groaned in dissatisfaction, and buried her head under the feathers. It's a bit hot, but it's much better than the annoying light.

"You're shrewd enough not to tell it all."

Erin glanced at James and said.

"That's for sure. Animagus' shape-shifting creatures can only be ordinary animals, not magical creatures."

James said.

"I've always found it a little weird, though. When I first became a wolf, I didn't feel any magic, and after a while, it appeared inexplicably."

Erin said with a frown.

"Is there one? Could it be that you were too excited to ignore it?"

James asked.

"You feel it?"

Erin asked rhetorically.

"No, I was happy, you know."

James said with some embarrassment.

"I'm really happy, how does my tail taste?"

Erin gave him a blank look and asked.

The two thought for a while, wrote down their conjectures on a piece of paper, and prepared to verify them next time.

"Whew~"

The lights were blown out, and four glowing eyes appeared in the study. The wicked woman bird outside the window also pulled her head out from under her wings. As for why not pull it out all at once, because it's cold.

Thanks to the werewolf bloodline, the Halls can also see more clearly in the dark.

Wandering around the cabin, they came to their bedroom for a long time, sorted themselves out with magic, changed into their pajamas, and went to bed. ….

Erin pillowed James's arm, not too big, not too small, just right, curled up in James's arms. James rubbed Erin's long hair and hugged Erin into his arms for a few minutes.

After a few lazy noises, my breathing gradually stabilized.

The waning moon hung high in the sky, and the sound of insects in the Forbidden Forest came and went, not only did not break the peace, but made the Forbidden Forest more quiet.

A touch of purple consciousness rose from the far sky, scattering countless streamers, illuminating one side with white light.

"Goo-goo!"

A clear rooster crow penetrated the entire castle, angering countless young wizards, know that today is Saturday!

Hogwarts first floor meeting room.

After lunch, the professors came to the room one after another and sat down in the same position as before.

Dumbledore, Grindelwald, Professor McGonagall, Professor Binns, the three wizards and a ghost, sat down early, and the remaining three headmasters.

"It's all here, so let's get started. No one else is there, so we can feel free."

Dumbledore said mildly, tapping on the table, the presentation ball in the center was fluorescent, and the light screen appeared above the round table, and everyone saw the front.

"Minerva, you start. I'll talk about it later."

Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall beside him.

Professor McGonagall nodded, and took over the chair of the meeting.

"The regular meeting of the beginning of the school year has been held, so let's first find out about the situation of the new students in each college. Gryffindor ......"

Beginning with Professor McGonagall, the four deans talked about the situation of the new students in the four houses in turn, and all the problems that were easy to solve have been solved.

Some of the old problems still exist, passed from the freshmen of the previous semester to the freshmen of this semester.

This time, it wasn't Gryffindor that was most famous, but Ravenclaw.

Ravenclaw students, as smart as they are, do not all of their little wisdom come to terms with their studies.

This time, there was a very "flamboyant" student in Ravenclaw, who always liked to boast about certain wishes, but did not never see him act.

He was Gilderoy Lockhart.

When professors are in class, they inevitably use examples to motivate students to learn, such as the elders in certain areas, or the seniors closest to them.

Every time Lockhart listened, he would always say in class, "I'm going to surpass theirs in the future."

When confronted with a stern professor like Professor McGonagall, he said to his classmates; When facing gentle professors like Professor Sprout, he said it out loud directly, for fear that others would not know.

When professors first heard about it, they would always give Lockhart a kind smile, praise his ambitions, and urge Lockhart to study hard while getting other students to learn from him.

Soon, however, the professors realized that it was not that simple.

In each class, after the professors gave examples of famous people, Lockhart would always draw an analogy to himself and say something that he would say back to him.

But after a while, whether it was his attitude in class or his homework, this guy didn't take what he said to heart at all. ….

It seems that he boasted so much just to get the admiring gaze of others and to satisfy his vanity. Although children have such thoughts, Lockhart's desire for this aspect is too strong.

In order to ensure the quality of the class, the professors have deliberately not given examples.

Professor Flitwick apologized to the professors for this and apologized for the fuss of his cubs. At the same time, he also analyzed Lockhart's family and came up with the reason, but the solution is still to be discussed.

His father was a Muggle, his mother was a witch, and he had two older sisters, but they were both Muggles.

Lockhart's mother's unbridled preference for him among all his siblings, coupled with the fact that he discovered that he was a wizard and was allowed to study at Hogwarts, caused his vanity to grow like a weed.

Despite Lockhart's exuberant vanity, there are some things he shows in class and in his assignments that lead professors to think that the kid is not so talented but far from his own declared ambitions.

In the face of such children, Professor Flitwick is also a little difficult.

But Professor Sgrahorn gave him a point.

Most of Slytherin's students come from pure-blood families, have long been nurtured by their parents' pure-blood concepts, and have a similar situation to Lockhart, thinking that they are superior, but in fact they are ordinary wizards.

Most of these students will start to move forward spontaneously after the second grade, after all, the report card of the first grade is enough for them to recognize the reality.

So Professor Sgrahorn's advice is to stay certain and prepare for the next semester in time.

Then there is the feedback report from the "Workbook", which was done by the professors of each subject themselves, and compared with the previous semester.

In terms of basic knowledge, the Workbook works well. However, the brain will know it, and from knowledge to practice, it still needs to be practiced, and it still depends on the initiative of the little wizards.

Filch also excitedly reported the number of people who rebought the workbook, and he also made a statistic and had experience with Huimin stores, which was not difficult for him.

Most of the students who lost the Workbook were Gryffindors, who contributed a large amount of money to Hogwarts, and even some young wizards bought it more than once.

Soon, the educational issues were all dealt with, and the presiding power was back in Dumbledore's hands again.

"First things first, basilisk."

Dumbledore said, tapping on the table, revealing a picture of the basilisk above the presentation ball, somewhat unrealistic, drawn, and a succinct overview.

"It's a very distressing thing, what are we going to do with it. Historically, it was Slytherin's pet, a legacy that Slytherin left to Hogwarts......

Hearing the words "Hogwarts legacy", some thin-skinned professors couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

If you have studied a little history, you know that Slytherin disagreed with the other founders, and before leaving Hogwarts, he built the Chamber of Secrets, leaving behind the basilisk to clean up the castle of people who he thought were unworthy of studying magic.

Those who are not worthy of studying magic, in the pure-blood family, are considered Muggle-born wizards, or Muggle-blooded wizards, not pure-bloods, but heretics.

"yes, yes! It's cruel to keep her in a secret room for thousands of years."

Professor Celt Byrne said hurriedly.

"And be controlled by those old dark wizards who can do things they don't like. I can't even eat..."

Hagrid picked up the dirty rag and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Dumbledore paused for a moment, leaving it to the faculty members to discuss freely.

"Do you think the basilisk is going or staying?"

After a while, Dumbledore raised his hand, and everyone fell silent, he asked.

"Definitely stay, this Slytherin's legacy to Hogwarts!"

Professor Sgrahorn said that as the head of Slytherin, he absolutely had to defend the property of his college.

A living basilisk! With access to a steady stream of high-quality potion materials, new potions can be developed, and old potions can be resurfaced.

Moreover, it did not violate the laws of the Ministry of Magic. Hogwarts did not breed basilisks, which were left over from their ancestors.
