The first year of the plot begins in Minerva McGonagall's office
After the Transfiguration class, Harper went to a small study on the side of the corridor on the second floor, which was McGonagall's office, with a burning fireplace and a view of the Quidditch pitch from the window. McGonagall sat in his office chair and looked at Harper standing in front of his desk.
"Hey, Grandma Minerva, are you going to talk to me about the Transfiguration Charm?" Harper grinned and panicked, thinking that this was the normal state of mind for a trouble-breaker who still had a conscience.
"Harper Potter, don't laugh, do you know what you did?" McGonagall said solemnly.
"Didn't I just turn a ghost into a food? Originally, I just wanted to scare him, after all, it stands to reason that ghosts should be disembodied, and they should not be able to become corporeal. Harper touched his chin.
"That's probably because Peeves is different from other spirits, they have a physical form, and the existing entity theory can change entities... Wait, you don't seem to be using the spell method in the book, because the concept of a transfiguration charm is to turn an inanimate object into a living thing that resembles it, or to change a part of a thing, but you are turning a living thing into a dead thing that you don't want to look like at all, and it's in modern grammar that I've never heard of, not Latin. McGonagall looked at Harper with his hands on his chest and thought.
"Well, that's kind of a spell I improvise," after all, it was the failure that Jerry's dad used to teach, and she just used the failure, "I grew up using almost modern language, or as long as the rhyme and the idea and imagination were strong enough, I generally presented the result of my thoughts." "Harper doesn't plan to let anyone know he's born again.
"Rhyme, thought, imagination—" Albus came in through the door as McGonagall muttered to himself.
"Just a few moments in the morning I heard that Peeves had been turned into a piece of jelly by Harper...... It seems that our little Harper has fully inherited James's talent for transfiguration, and may be even more than him. Albus's words were sarcastic, but the half-moon-shaped eyes were deeply inquiring.
"Long time no see, Grandpa Albus. I don't know if I've inherited my dad's talent, but it's certain that the spell I used in the morning was the same as the one here... Should... Not a system. Because it was a magic spell from the previous life, "Anyway, since I was a child, I felt that my magic seemed to be what I wanted to do." I have what I give. Actually, on the train, Hermione also tried to cast my spells, but it didn't seem to work, and I don't know if it was because of the lack of magic power and couldn't activate it, or if it was only me who could use it. Harper hopes not, or she'll continue to endure the ancient magic tools of the Wizards, she'll miss the wizarding network so much!
"Minerva, why don't we try?" Albus was instantly interested.
"Professor Dumbledore, please talk about business first, the academic discussion can be talked about later, no hurry, I believe that Harper will not run away and will be more than happy to discuss it with us elders." McGonagall pressed his eagerness to get down to business.
"Yes, of course, that one can be later... Harper, you're writing back saying you remember everything you did when you were a kid? Do you remember the birthday present I gave you? Dumbledore asked tentatively.
"Of course, it was a very sour lemon candy that almost didn't sour my teeth, even though there weren't many teeth. Mom also put away the rest. Harper shuddered at the thought of the sour one.
"Oh, is it? Very sour? I think it's delicious! Looks like you really remember what happened when you were a kid, then, that night..."Dumbledore listened to Harper's words and breathed a sigh of relief, and asked cautiously about the events of that day.
"It was Peter Pettigrew who brought Voldemort that night, and I remember my dad asking him why, and he said it was just because he was afraid. Then I was killed by a green earth spell, and then my mother also stood in front of me to protect me, and finally fell down, and he tried to kill me with the same spell, but suddenly a transparent barrier appeared in front of him and the spell rebounded, and then his soul body floated through me, and then I fainted. I tried to protect them, but I found myself doing nothing. "Just like in previous lives.
"No, you were young, and no one would blame you if you couldn't do it, and you've done a good job." McGonagall comforted her.
"By the way, I remember that after being hit by the green light, both of them had a white mist floating out of their bodies in a different color than Voldemort's soul, and Voldemort was black. Does that mean my parents have become ghosts like Bloody Baron? ”
"Spectre formation is the imprint (or some kind of magic) left by some sorcerers who are afraid of death (or can't go away for some reason) in the place where they once lived, and the imprint that is closely related to their souls, and after their death, this magic comes into play. Theoretically, being hit by the Requisition Curse kills you, and it leaves no scars, not even your soul. However, there may also be special beings, such as you and Voldemort. If you do take on a ghost form, you'll have to stay where you once lived or where you have nostalgia, and your home in Godric's Valley is now..."Dumbledore pondered the possibility of ghosts.
"There's another place where we really live, but I don't know how?" Although there is an impression, the baby's eyesight is limited and he can't find his way back at all.
"You mean the Potter Ancestral House? Maybe... It's possible, but it's not necessarily. Sirius should know how to get there? He used to live in your father's house when he was in school, and your grandmother, Dorea, was also from the Black family, so she was supposed to be his aunt. Dumbledore touched Harper's head.
"Uh, isn't that dad Sirius' uncle, and my godfather my cousin?" Harper suddenly felt that this blood relationship really left her speechless.
"During Christmas, Hogwarts has a two-week break, and students can choose to go home for the holidays or stay in school, and you can ask Sirius to take you home. He's not exactly free, but he can send you home. Dumbledore apologized for not being able to exonerate Sirius.
"Yes, I've heard Sirius talk a little bit, isn't it just to chase Peter's impulsive blow up the house. Why do you think he's a Death Eater? If it's really left where you are, oh, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the police in the wizarding world catching it? Isn't it stupid! Harper rolled his eyes for some brainless people.
"Because it was announced that Sirius was a secret person, and it was also to attract the attention of the Death Eaters, thinking that Pettigrew was usually more timid and less present than Sirius and Remus, I thought it would be very safe, but I didn't expect..."
"It's really clever, whether it's coming up with this idea or finally thinking my godfather is a traitor." Harper said contemptuously.
"Hmm~ Judging from the results, it's really not very smart, but~ the idea was Sirius's idea. As for the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, the situation was out of control at that time, and they were forced to do so. But because we have different opinions, Sirius's origin will also be misunderstood, and it is difficult to be trusted, but because of the disappearance of the key person Pettigrew, the trial cannot proceed normally, and now Sirius is still a suspect in the Ministry of Magic to a certain extent. ”
"The people who came up with this idea and agreed with it are not very smart, but since it was a loved one who thought of it, then I won't complain for the time being. Since Sirius's identity is doubtful because of his origin, it is possible that my testimony as a baby at the time may not be credible! "It's really like in previous lives, prejudice is everywhere.
"You're right, adults don't believe the testimony of a child, let alone a 1-year-old baby. However, if your assumption is correct, James and Lily's souls turned into ghosts are still alive in the world, in the Potter ancestral home, then they are the strongest witnesses to clear Sirius's suspicions, followed by finding Peter Pettigrew. Dumbledore agreed. Now that we're down to business, let's talk about your Transfiguration. ”
"I'm curious about your theories of magic in this area, too." McGonagall had a light in his eyes.
"Well, I'm really not a theoretician! Grandma Minerva, Grandpa Albus. And dear Professor McGonagall, don't you have to go to class? "Harper is a little tired right now, and he really doesn't want to show magic anymore.
"Change, we all have time now." Minerva relaxes into the office couch.
Harper gave Minerva a thumbs up, "Good, very good, my lord is really capricious!! ’
