HP:The Prophet of Harry Potter

"Fortunately, I've upgraded my knowledge of transfiguration theory to Level 2, or I wouldn't understand any of this," Albert thought as he listened to Professor McGonagall's explanation, feeling a mix of awe and gratitude.

The Ravenclaw student Selwyn hadn't mastered the Animagus transformation like Professor McGonagall had.

However, by building on the theory of human body transfiguration, he was able to analyze and elaborate on the Animagus process. This innovative approach earned Selwyn the Transfiguration Today Most Promising Newcomer Award.

Summarizing the article in his mind, Albert noted:

'Animagus transformation is a form of advanced transfiguration magic. To master it, one must possess advanced knowledge of potions, expertise in transfiguration, considerable courage, and a fair bit of luck to complete the transformation successfully'

Albert reflected on the requirements for becoming an Animagus, and a frown crept across his face.

The form a wizard takes as an Animagus is typically the same as their Patronus, and the transformation process is extremely intricate. No wonder Animagu's are so rare.

How did Harry Potter's father and his friends manage to master Animagus? The question puzzled Albert to no end.

He knew the potion required for the Animagus transformation was notoriously complex. Sometimes, with bad luck, it could take years to gather the necessary ingredients, let alone brew it successfully.

Could it all be attributed to the protagonist's halo? Albert couldn't help but entertain the thought.

As he mulled over this mystery, a notification suddenly popped up on his task panel:

[Animagus

You have stumbled upon a highly advanced branch of transfiguration magic. Mastering Animagus will elevate your skills in transfiguration to new heights. Complete the ritual to become an Animagus.

Reward: Animagus skill level +1, 10,000 experience points.]

Albert stared at the unexpected task message, swallowing nervously.

The rewards for a task often hinted at its difficulty, but... this one didn't seem too daunting. Or did it?

"What are you thinking about?" Field's voice interrupted Albert's thought, pulling him back to the present.

The Gryffindor girl watched the boy beside her with interest. She seemed curious about how much Albert truly understood. Given that he was only a first-year student, she expected him to be completely lost in the discussion. But Albert's thoughtful expression suggested otherwise—he seemed to grasp at least part of it.

"It's challenging. Human transfiguration is a bit too advanced for me right now," Albert admitted after some deliberation. "I came across some information about it in the library a couple of days ago. I read that Animagus is a form of advanced human transfiguration that allows a wizard to transform themselves into an animal using magic. But now it seems like Animagus is not quite what I imagined."

"The type of transformation you're referring to, even if successful, wouldn't qualify as Animagus," Field explained patiently. "If you transformed yourself into an animal like that, you'd never be able to change back on your own. Animagus is far more intricate than that. Once you study advanced transfiguration, it'll all make sense."

It was clear that the senior students invited by Professor McGonagall to the club were all exceptionally skilled in transfiguration.

"Field," Albert asked curiously, "have you ever thought about becoming an Animagus?"

"No, it's far too difficult to become an Animagus," Field replied, shaking his head. "However, with your talent, I think you might have a chance to achieve it someday."

"Ahem." Professor McGonagall's voice interrupted their conversation, startling them. She had appeared beside them without their noticing and cleared her throat to get their attention.

"I must remind you that Animagus transformation is far more complex than you might think," Professor McGonagall said firmly. "You should certainly take the time to learn about it thoroughly. However..." She paused, her gaze narrowing as she looked directly at Albert, her tone turning stern.

"I need to warn all of you—never attempt it recklessly, especially when you are alone. Such carelessness can lead to grave danger. Many wizards who tried to become Animagi without proper preparation ended up failing, becoming half-human, half-beast monstrosities, and living the rest of their lives in great misery."

Maybe, this is just what Professor McGonagall is scaring everyone, maybe all this is true, but Albert is not worried at all, as long as he is willing to become Animagus, because...he has a panel, He can cheat!

　　 Transformation failing? As long as the skill level of Animagus is raised, it does not exist.

　　 Professor McGonagall's explanation of the article "Transfiguration Today" is not the only activity content of the Transfiguration Club. During the rest of the time, everyone will practice or learn transformation magic together.

　　 For this reason, Professor McGonagall allocated mice to everyone in advance , and was prepared to teach them to the disappearance spell and practice.

The incantation for the Vanishing Spell is Evanesco—

This spell doesn't truly make an object disappear; rather, "into non-being, which is to say, everything"... From the caster's perspective, however, the object does seem to vanish completely.

It bears some similarity to the Scouring Charm, though Albert viewed the Scouring Charm as a less advanced, simplified version of the Vanishing Spell. This simplicity was why he had been able to master the Scouring Charm so easily.

Admittedly, Albert's success with the Scouring Charm was largely due to the assistance of his magical proficiency panel.

Instead of giving him a mouse to practice on, Professor McGonagall lent Albert a copy of Intermediate Transfiguration, which contained information on summoning spells.

Interestingly, the book's original owner was none other than Minerva McGonagall herself.

When Albert opened the first page, he immediately noticed Professor McGonagall's name written neatly inside.

Had Professor McGonagall really lent him her personal copy of the book?

The personal book of a seasoned Transfiguration professor is undeniably valuable—similar, in a way, to the Advanced Potion-Making textbook that Harry Potter obtained from the Half-Blood Prince.

The concept of summoning turned out to be more challenging than Albert initially expected. The primary requirement for successfully casting a summoning spell was sufficient magical power to sustain it, making it nearly impossible for first-year students to perform such advanced magic effectively.

Despite the difficulty, Albert didn't give up. During his practice sessions, he continued to focus on understanding the intricacies of summoning. Thankfully, he had already advanced his understanding of Transfiguration theory to the second level; without that foundation, the book's content would have been utterly incomprehensible to him.

"Sure enough..." Albert glanced discreetly at his skill panel, noticing that a summoning spell had appeared.

Focusing intently, he raised his wand and murmured, "Orchideous! "

This time, the tip of his wand finally showed a reaction.

Albert reached out to examine what had materialized. In his hand was... a twig with a small flower attached to it.

His face twitched slightly, but he tried to console himself. At least I managed to summon something related to a flower, he thought.

"What did you just say?" Field asked, drawn by Albert's reaction. Her curiosity, however, for him led to a momentary lapse in concentration. The wand in his hand accidentally flicked toward the base of a nearby table, causing one of its legs to vanish instantly.

"Be careful, Miss Field," Professor McGonagall said as she repaired the table leg for her, sounding slightly annoyed. "If I were you, I would pay more attention next time".

"Sorry, Professor McGonagall," Field quickly apologized but couldn't take her eyes off of the twig in Albert's hand. After Professor McGonagall walked away, she eagerly took the twig from him to examine it closely. "You really surprised me. Maybe it won't be long before you can summon the flowers you want."

"I'll make it happen," Albert nodded confidently.

However, despite his determination, Albert was unable to conjure a full bouquet of blooming flowers by the time the Transfiguration Club meeting ended.

The End.

Ho ho ho.Sorry for the delay.Had a depression period hit me.But managed to bounce back.Now a few stones would be perfect +_+ !
