Maybe, a little bit of fame. Or maybe, it's not really fame at all.
Anyway, Albert was surprised to find that a famous wizard actually wrote back to him.
The man's name was Ed Fusco. The reply was very short, expressing his willingness to exchange letters with Albert. He also left a question for Albert, wanting to hear Albert's views on Gamp's basic law of transformation.
The questions asked by Mr. Fusco were not too difficult, and could even be said to be very simple, so much so that Albert suspected that the other party already knew his age.
However, Albert didn't care about this. He was more concerned about his newly appeared task panel.

I really didn't expect that a panel task would appear like this.
Even if Albert might not be able to complete it for the time being, it does not mean that he cannot complete it in the future. Albert never complains about having too much experience. He feels that he is in a good mood today and starts thinking about writing a reply to the other party.
It took some time to finish writing the letter. Albert sealed it and handed it to Sheila. He looked at the direction where the owl flew away before turning his attention back to his food. He found that his slice of bread had been pecked to pieces by Sheila.
Albert shook his head slightly, used magic to clear the items on the plate, picked up another piece of bread and continued to enjoy his breakfast.
"You seem to be in a good mood. Did something good happen?" Angelina, who was sitting next to him, asked curiously.
"Mr. Fusco has replied to my letter." Albert would naturally not say anything like there was a panel task.
"Mr. Fusco?"
"Actually, I don't know him either. I just received a letter from him and wrote him back." Albert said casually, "Anyway, a letter won't waste much time."
Moreover, there are some things that Albert did not say.
He didn't think that the two sides would frequently exchange letters. Famous people were usually very busy every day, so how could they have so much time to write letters to themselves? Not everyone was like Tom in his family, who spent all day eating, sleeping, and basking in the sun.
"Have you heard?" Li Qiaodan came over here with a mysterious look on his face, as if he had heard some interesting news.
"I haven't heard of it. Just tell me if you have anything to say!" Albert looked up at his roommate, "What is it?"
"Apparition class." Lee Jordan excitedly said the news he had just heard.
"Didn't we mention this shortly after we came back from Christmas break?" Albert looked at Lee Jordan in confusion, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Could it be that lower grade students can also sign up for the Apparition class?"
"Do you want to sign up?" Fred asked lazily.
"Well, Apparition is a convenient magic, we have to learn it." Albert nodded, "Don't you want to learn it? It will be much easier when you are traveling in the future."
"Don't even think about it unless you're seventeen." Lee Jordan said unhappily, "The course will start this afternoon. You can go over and watch the senior students practice Apparition."
"I once read a history of Hogwarts, and it seems that Apparition is not allowed in school?" Shanna said uncertainly: "Could it be that they are going to practice the Apparition spell outside the school?"
"No, the location is the hall." Li Jordan pointed here.
"That's impossible." Shanna frowned.
"Nothing is impossible. I guess the headmaster will remove the protective magic that prohibits Apparition in the school and allow Apparition in the hall. By the way, does anyone have an owl to lend me? I want to order some things." Albert opened the potion book that recorded the developing potion and asked everyone.
"Don't you have it?" Li Qiaodan asked puzzledly.
"Sheila flew away to help deliver the letter. I plan to write a letter to the pharmacy in Diagon Alley to buy some herbs." Albert explained.
He was ready to complete the magic photo mission as soon as possible and obtain alchemy as soon as possible. Albert originally thought that after making the protective bracelet, alchemy would appear on the panel, but his panel never showed any related skills, so Albert did not plan to continue trying.
Albert planned to acquire the skill of alchemy first and try out its effects before making any plans.
"I'll lend you mine!" said Aaliyah.
"What potion are you going to prepare?" Fred asked curiously, "Is it the Felixir?"
"It's the developing solution." Albert pointed to the page in the book and said, "I heard that the developing solution can make the characters in the photo move."
"That sounds good. Can you give me some of it when the time comes?" Shanna asked awkwardly. "Of course, I will help."
"If there is any leftover by then, I'll have no problem giving it to you." Albert agreed.
"Albert, we're going out for a walk later. Do you want to come?" Fred asked, nodding towards the outside.
"Where are we going?" Angelina asked doubtfully, "The Quidditch pitch?"
In the afternoon, the Gryffindor team had a training session. They were about to win the championship, so Charlie didn't dare to relax at all.
"I have an appointment later." Albert politely declined the twins' invitation.
"Who?" George couldn't help asking, "You don't plan to go to the woods with us."
"Into the woods?" Angelina's voice rose a few notches. "What are you doing in the woods?"
"Let's go on an adventure and hunt for treasure!" the twins said in unison.
In fact, they were looking for some valuable raw materials for medicine. Especially after the last incident, the twin brothers had read "A Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi" several times and were ready to go into the forest to search for treasure.
As for Lee Jordan, the punishment he received last time was really severe, and it made him start to reflect on whether it was worth it to risk going into the woods.
Li Jordan also knew that there were many precious things in the Forbidden Forest, but sometimes you really needed a bit of luck, so the twins wanted to bring Albert along, because this guy always had good luck, and if Albert went, Li Jordan would follow.
In their words, now that Albert had gone with them, the risk of this adventure would be greatly reduced.
"It's Professor Badbold. I'm going to play wizard chess with him." Albert said casually.
"I remember Professor Broad is the international wizard chess champion! I feel like you're going to lose badly." Not only George, everyone else looked at Albert with pity.
"It's fun to play chess with powerful people. Even if you lose, it doesn't matter. Just keep a good attitude. What's more, don't you think it would be nice to have a wizard chess champion as your personal guide?" Albert said without hesitation.
"It sounds reasonable," Fred nodded and said, "But I always feel that you are making excuses for your impending failure."
Albert couldn't help but roll his eyes and ignored this group of unreliable friends. He was still looking at the manufacturing method of the developing solution.
alchemy.
I'm kind of looking forward to it!
