"You want to learn from me how to use Transfiguration to fight others?"
"Yes, professor." Albert said sincerely.
Professor McGonagall stopped what she was doing, looked up at her favorite student, and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You haven't been to the Transfiguration Club for a while."
"I can no longer learn new knowledge in the Transfiguration Club, and you know, I'm always busy and can only use my limited time on other things." Albert has been in the Transfiguration Club for several years and has learned everything Professor McGonagall taught.
In fact, a lot of what Professor McGonagall taught in the Transfiguration Club was repetitive, and staying after learning that knowledge was a complete waste of time.
"I heard you were learning combat techniques from Filius?"
Professor McGonagall did not delve into the fact that Albert often skipped the Transfiguration Club. She knew that he had already learned what she had taught in the club, and she also knew that Albert was always very busy.
"Yes, I have benefited a lot from Professor Flitwick's experience in dueling." Albert nodded in admission. It was useless for him to quibble.
"So, you hope to learn something from me?" Professor McGonagall raised her eyebrows slightly and guessed Albert's intention.
"I lack experience the most right now." Albert looked at Professor McGonagall and said calmly, "I hope to gain some experience and inspiration from the professor in using Transfiguration to fight."
Albert's progress is very fast. It is hard to imagine that a wizard who knows nothing can reach his current level in just a few years.
It was as if he was riding on a Firebolt and sprinting away while everyone else was still jogging.
Professor McGonagall even heard from Professor Flitwick that Albert mastered the Fiery Flame Charm in just a few hours.
That was a Grimfire spell, not a Glowing spell.
The Fiery Curse is well-known in the dark arts. It is notoriously dangerous and difficult to control, but Albert mastered this spell in just a few hours
What a terrible talent.
In fact, Professor McGonagall totally disapproved of Filius teaching Albert those dangerous and evil black magic. When she heard that Albert had completely mastered the Fiendish Fire Curse in just a few hours, she even went to Dumbledore to complain about it.
Filius taught Albert the dark arts, undoubtedly with Dumbledore's tacit approval.
Now that she heard that Albert wanted to learn Transfiguration from her, Professor McGonagall was relieved for some reason. She was really worried that Albert would go down a path of no return because of the abuse of dark magic.
"I can take the time to explain to you my personal understanding and application of the Transfiguration spell, but I have to remind you that Transfiguration is more difficult than you think. It is not easy to use Transfiguration skillfully in combat." Professor McGonagall agreed to explain her experience and skills in Transfiguration to Albert. After all, he was her favorite student, and she didn't want Albert to become a dangerous dark wizard one day.
There was no way, Albert's speed in learning black magic was too amazing.
If Albert used the Fiery Curse to kill the third target directly, the consequences would be unimaginable to her. Once she left Albert with the impression that using black magic could solve the problem more easily, she would be doomed.
"That's great." Albert said excitedly.
"I'll let you know when the time comes," said Professor McGonagall.
As expected, it is up to me to guide him onto the right path.
Before Albert was about to leave, Professor McGonagall, who was holding a book, suddenly asked, "I heard that you have started to get involved in the dark arts."
"I have indeed read quite a few books on the dark arts recently." Albert was somewhat surprised that Professor McGonagall would bring this up. He quickly realized the reason and was suddenly speechless.
"What do you think of the Dark Arts?"
"There's a Muggle saying: Guns don't kill people, people kill people."
Although Albert didn't quite agree with this statement, he felt that it made sense.
"Dark magic is not the only kind of magic that can be used to kill. If used irresponsibly or maliciously, most magic can easily cause death." Albert gave a few examples. "The Cutting Curse can easily cut off someone's head, the Water-Creating Curse can also drown people, and the Repairing Curse can even cause great pain to those who are injured.
"That's enough, Mr. Anderson, I understand what you mean." Professor McGonagall's expression was not very good, but she had to admit that Albert had some point.
"I heard you're getting married." She found a lighter topic.
"Yes, after graduation." Albert didn't expect Professor McGonagall to suddenly change the subject.
"Have you found the witness?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"It's been found, it's Mr. Flamel." Albert was a little speechless. He felt that many people were very interested in the position of the witness.
"Okay, remember to inform us when the time comes." Professor McGonagall seemed a little regretful.
"Yes, I was planning to inform you before graduation next semester." Albert was a little embarrassed. He actually hadn't planned to announce it so soon.
"Please help keep it a secret. I don't want the whole school to know about this. It will cause great trouble to my future school life."
"I won't say anything nonsense." Professor McGonagall looked at Albert's departing back and recalled some unpleasant memories. She remembered that there was a pair of students that she was very optimistic about who got married shortly after graduation, but...
"You actually convinced Professor McGonagall."
Fred, George and Lee Jordan were all very surprised. They had never expected that Professor McGonagall would so readily agree to teach Albert fighting skills.
You know, this guy seems to have made a leap in growth since he learned fighting skills from Professor Flitwick for a while. Now he has been learning from Professor McGonagall for a while. It is really hard to imagine how much Albert will grow.
However, these were things they could not envy. Albert had also told them about Professor Flitwick's combat experience, but they could not learn it. Mastering the silent spell was the most basic. However, the three of them had basically given up on the silent spell. Although Albert used it so elegantly, it was too difficult to achieve that level of silent spell.
"I still think chanting loudly is more suitable for us."
The three said in unison.
In fact, most sixth-grade students have practiced silent spells day and night, but there are very few wizards who can really use silent spells skillfully.
There is no way. Mastering silent spells is very difficult. It requires a lot of practice, as well as strong concentration and willpower.
All three of them had practiced silent spells, and there was even a time when their faces turned red as if they were constipated.
However, after a long period of practice, they found that they still could not use silent spells skillfully, and finally chose to cheat: chanting the spell in a low voice.
Yes, the silent spells that most students at Hogwarts master are actually fake. This spell is not that easy to master.
Most students usually chant the spell quietly, pretending that they have mastered the silent spell.
The three of them knew very well that the silent spell Albert was talking about was completely different from the silent spell they knew.
Just like the Glowing Charm used by most wizards, it is completely different from the Glowing Charm used by Albert.
“We’re really not good at this.”
"By the way, we have achieved some initial results from our research on the howling letter, and we have also made another version of the decoy bomb."
"It's more appropriate to call it a sound bomb. It will make a loud noise when it's thrown out, just like a howling letter, and it can attract other people's attention." George introduced to Albert.
"I remember there seemed to be something similar in the past," Albert recalled.
"Yes, but this thing is more powerful and can definitely give people unexpected surprises."
"Some things are not suitable for sale, at least not in the next few years." Albert reminded, "I don't want someone to use this stuff against us one day. Besides, we don't need that little money."
"Okay, you're right." George took out his notes and started thinking about what would be inappropriate on their store shelves.
"I've seen you flipping through that book a lot lately." Lee Jordan casually brought up a topic, his eyes inevitably glancing at the book "The Most Toxic Magic" in Albert's hand.
"To study the dark arts, of course."
"This book records a lot of dark magic."
"There are about fifty-three kinds." Albert actually knew the exact number, which was because he had flipped through them many times.
"How many have you learned?" Fred took "The Most Toxic Magic" from Albert and asked curiously while pretending to flip through it.
"I haven't learned it. The black magic recorded in this book is not easy to use, but there are many types of black magic, which can be used as cases." Albert did not lie. Godlot's so-called advancement of the study of black magic was actually a joke.
Okay, to call it a joke might be a bit of an exaggeration.
It was a great achievement to be able to publish this book in that era, and it was considered to have promoted the study of black magic in any case.
As for the black magic in "The Most Poisonous Magic", it is actually Godlott who uses the power of the Elder Wand to develop a lot of black magic that looks very dangerous.
The danger of these spells comes more from the power of the Elder Wand rather than the spells themselves, because Albert suspects that there are very few wizards who can use the dark magic in them. After all, they are developed using the Elder Wand, so it is normal that they require very strong magical power as a foundation.
However, Albert saw the type of curse cast by the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts in "The Most Toxic Spell".
Generally speaking, cursing someone directly without using a spell requires superb skills and powerful magical power as support, and the effect is very limited.
Voldemort's curse on the Defense Against the Dark Arts professorship was of this type.
If Voldemort himself had not been powerful enough, the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor would not have persisted and been difficult to eliminate.
This is also the reason why many people, although they think that the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is unlucky, do not take the curse too seriously.
Because there are limits to cursing others, otherwise how could Voldemort not curse Dumbledore and let him die sooner
However, Albert knew of a successful case.
It is said that Malfoy's ancestor once cursed Queen Victoria Elizabeth I to make her single forever because his courtship was rejected.
Even more dangerous than a curse is a blood curse.
There is no detailed record of the blood curse in "The Most Poisonous Magic", but it reminds later generations of the evil of the blood curse.
This is as bullshit as writing in the preface: "Regarding the Horcrux, the most evil magical invention, no discussion or guidance will be given here."
Of course, Albert found other information about the blood curse elsewhere.
This is a very dangerous curse.
Any wizard who dares to use a blood curse to curse others will usually pay the price, and it is normal for him to die suddenly on the spot. Moreover, the wizard who uses the blood curse must be strong enough and harbor a grudge against someone so that the blood curse can continue to be passed on after his death.
As for how to use it, it is likely that it can be found in "Advanced Dark Magic Revealed", but unfortunately that book is with Dumbledore.
However, Albert had no intention of delving into the study of black magic. He read these more to understand these ancient black magics and prevent himself from accidentally falling into the trap.
It is said that Godlot, the author of "The Most Poisonous Magic", was locked in a cellar by his own son in his later years and died a miserable death.
