Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 109: That was really an accident

Views:

"Do you know that guy?" George looked up at Field's departing figure and muttered softly.

"A friend I met at the Transfiguration Club." Albert said without even looking up, "Field is very good at Transfiguration. It is said that he has published an article in Transfiguration Today. After graduation, he should also develop in the field of Transfiguration!"

In fact, almost all students who are eligible to be selected by Professor McGonagall into the Transfiguration Club will publish articles in Transfiguration Today, and there are several pages of that magazine dedicated to Hogwarts students who are particularly good at Transfiguration.

"Do you know what kind of work people who are good at Transfiguration will do in the future, Transfiguration professor?" Li Jordan suddenly interrupted and asked.

"have no idea."

"In fact, girls usually don't work for too long after graduation because they need to take care of the family." Fred whispered, "This is the norm. Of course, there are some exceptions."

"Is that so?" Albert blinked. He was not very clear about the affairs of the magical world.

However, there is one thing that Albert is very clear about: being a full-time mother in the UK is considered a "profession" and its status is far higher than in the previous life.

"Yes." George nodded in agreement. This was the situation in his family.

"That's the situation in my family," Shanna whispered. "What about your family?"

"They are all lawyers," Albert replied.

"Who takes care of you?" Sana asked curiously. She had also finished her homework.

Now, whenever they have homework that requires finding information, they are accustomed to going to the library together, looking for information together, and sharing the information when they find it.

As for how to write the paper, that is their own business. Usually, they can always finish their homework quickly because they don't have to spend a lot of time looking for information.

This tradition was started by Albert, who thought it saved time and effort, everyone liked it, and it created a lively atmosphere when doing homework.

"I can take care of myself," Albert said as a matter of course.

Several people looked at Albert in astonishment, but thinking of Albert's formal style, this guy didn't seem to be the type who needed to be taken care of by others.

"You..." Shanna paused and changed the subject. She raised her hand and pointed at the symbol of good luck on the parchment. "This thing is really useful. Did you just draw it randomly?"

"This is the rune 'gibu auja', which means good luck." Albert explained in a low voice, "Ancient wizards would make it into amulets or 'lucky stones' to bring themselves good luck."

"I think you're lucky enough." Shanna muttered softly.

"I thought so," muttered Fred.

"Is this thing really useful?" Shanna actually noticed that the senior student was very interested in these symbols and seemed to know what they were.

"I'm not sure, but why don't you try it yourself," said Albert.

"How?" Shanna asked.

"Carve this symbol on a stone or a tree. After carving, you have to drip your own blood on the mark. Only then will it be effective." Albert winked at her and said, "If it works, remember to tell me. Then, I will sell various amulets in Hogwarts and I will definitely make a lot of money."

"Remember to take me with you," George said immediately.

Several people couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard this.

In fact, they also knew that Albert's words were mostly a joke. As for whether the symbols on the parchment had any effect, no one knew.

"You haven't tried it yourself?" Fred looked as if he didn't expect you to be that kind of person.

“Isn’t this still under study?”

In fact, Albert is still doing research, but his words sound a bit like quibbling.

"So you're going to put the symbol on the amulet?" George thought of the cross Albert had made, which was originally an amulet.

"No, I will design a new one." Albert shook his head. He knew that George and the others didn't believe in these things, but he didn't care about their doubts. If it weren't for a vague intuition, he himself wouldn't believe it.

Although Albert mastered the reading and writing of ancient magic words, he still needed to explore on his own how to use them and how to draw out the mysteries of runes.

Now, the only thing Albert could do was to record the research process on parchment, which would give him a feeling of studying magic.

When I succeed in the future, I can turn these parchments into a book:

Look, this is the handwritten manuscript left by xx wizard when he studied runes, the legendary xx wizard's notebook or something like that. It feels very interesting.

It would be quite interesting if one day a student at Hogwarts solved the mystery left by Albert and found the "treasure" he hid in Hogwarts.

Maybe, I can use these manuscripts to write a book about ancient magic runes in the future, and maybe it can be used as teaching materials for the ancient magic runes class at Hogwarts.

Well, that seems like a good idea.

Just as this thought flashed through Albert's mind, there was movement in the panel task again.

Magic rune expert.

You are already ahead of most people in the field of magic runes. In order to further prove your authority in this area, write a book related to ancient magic runes and make it the textbook for the ancient magic runes class at Hogwarts.

Reward: 10,000 experience points, 1 skill point, title: Magic Expert, reputation in the magic world +300.

After reading the task on the panel, Albert was shocked. He wondered if as long as he wanted to become an expert in a certain field, the corresponding task would be triggered

After making this guess, Albert immediately tried it, but no other panel tasks appeared as he wished, which made him a little disappointed.

Although it may not be completed, as long as the task appears, it means there is a certain possibility. Moreover, even if it cannot be completed now, it may not be impossible in the future. Who knows, I may really write a book about magic. No one can predict what will happen in the future.

"What are you thinking about? Come here." Fred stopped and shouted to Albert behind him.

"Nothing, I was thinking I should go to bed early today." Albert suddenly said: "After all, if I have to get up early at night..."

He suddenly stopped. He noticed Fred's quiet movements. Before he looked in the direction of his finger, a strange voice sounded in his ear, "Get up early at night? Why do you get up early at night?"

Filch was standing not far away. He had obviously heard what Albert said and regarded it as a provocation. He walked over here, staring at Albert and said, "It's better not to let me know that you are here in the middle of the night..."

“Ahem…” Albert looked at them helplessly and couldn’t help rolling his eyes.

"How could it be such a coincidence?" Albert muttered softly after Filch left.

"Filch must have thought you were teasing him." Fred tried hard not to laugh out loud. It was indeed a coincidence. Just when they were about to turn the corner, who knew that Filch would suddenly appear

"As you all know, this was just a little accident." Albert looked innocent, indicating that he really had no intention of teasing Filch.

"Of course we know." The three said in unison.
