Chapter 84: The Combat Class part 2

Once again, Sasuke scanned the classroom, noting the sparse attendance. Only ten students from fourth to seventh years had shown up, a stark contrast to the potential three hundred students enrolled. Among them were seven boys from Slytherin, one girl from Ravenclaw—Gemma, who was also from Slytherin—and Hermione Granger. Despite the low turnout, Sasuke decided to continue.

"So, let's imagine you find yourself in a situation where someone tries to throw you off a cliff, transform you, or throw you into the ocean. How would you avoid that?" He asked the small group.

One of the boys raised his hand. "Nobody fights like this."

"Yes, but we're not talking about a fight; we're talking about killing," Sasuke continued. "What I've told you is just an example. Imagine someone sneaking up behind you and transform you into an animal. What would you do?"

"But human transformation is very difficult to learn. Not many people can do it perfectly," Penelope, the only girl from Ravenclaw, interjected.

"Your opponent doesn't need to transform you perfectly. For example, if your opponent intends to turn you into a stick but only manages to transform your hands into sticks, it would still be dangerous," Sasuke explained.

Listening intently, the students began to grasp the severity of Sasuke's examples.

Sasuke continued while standing, "Since we're discussing transformation, and I excel in transformation magic, let's start from this point."

He placed his Void breaker sword back into the system space. "What we're going to learn is how to transform back into human form or help someone who has been transformed into an animal. Is there any volunteer?"

The students looked at each other hesitantly; no one wanted to be a guinea pig.

Noticing their reluctance, Sasuke turned to Hermione. "Why don't you come here?"

"Me?" Hermione shook her head nervously, glancing around before her gaze settled on Penelope. "I think Penelope would be a good candidate."

Given that the majority of students were from Slytherin, they readily agreed with Hermione's suggestion to avoid being chosen themselves.

"Yes, she's the best candidate, being the top student from Ravenclaw. She should have this opportunity."

Rolling her eyes, Penelope realized she was being forced to volunteer just because there were more Slytherins present, not considering the risks of human transformation.

Seeing Penelope hesitate, Sasuke simply manipulated the ground to guide her toward him, it was more easy since he had already transformed the entire room.

As the ground moved, Penelope widened her eyes, struggling to keep her balance until she reached the platform. "Is this some kind of revenge?" she mumbled, regretting her decision to attend the class.

"Do you prefer cats or dogs?" Sasuke asked when Penelope didn't respond.

"I think cats are better."

Upon hearing her answer, Sasuke approached her and tapped her forehead. Within seconds, Penelope shrank and transformed into a small black cat, mewing in confusion.

"Prrr, prrr," She glanced around in confusion, "

her new feline form trembling as she tried to make sense of what had just happened. "Meeeeoooowwwww.''

Sasuke lifted her up to show the others. "Now imagine this done by your enemy. What could they do with you?" He continued, "I'm going to teach you what to do in this situation."

He rubbed the cat, "First, don't panic like her," he said, staring at Penelope, "If you want to turn back into a human, you must first calm down and try to feel your magic. Now follow what I say."

After explaining how to sense magic and what to do next, Sasuke began guiding Penelope to revert to human form.

"Now, focus. Unlike others, I have reserved your intelligence and magic, so it should be easier. Just think about turning back into a human with a smooth flow of magic."

Listening to Sasuke's instructions, Penelope, still in his arms, started to transform. Sasuke guided her magic, slowly changing her from a small cat to a girl with cat ears, holding such a big girl in his arm if he were someone else they might have fallen.

Sasuke had one hand in the wrong place and one hand on her back to support her, using magic to make sure her skirt wouldn't lift and show her panties to the boys.

With a completely red face, Penelope, who has regained her human gets on the ground

and stepped back, and try to control her embarrassment.

Relieved, Sasuke looked at the other students. "Let me make one thing clear: I won't repeat the same lesson, so this is your only chance to learn how to return to human form from an animal. Furthermore, learning transformation into animals can be a valuable experience."

This time, no one rejected Sasuke's offer. He transformed every boy into a chimpanzee and turned Hermione and Gemma into cats.

While teaching them how to revert to human form, he was less careful with the boys, as helping them couldn't even give him a single system point from the system.

However, he was slightly more attentive with Hermione and Gemma, and also careful since as too much assistance could hinder their learning.

After everyone finally reverted to their human forms, Sasuke addressed them again. "After this class, make sure to visit the hospital to ensure there are no lingering effects from the transformation."

Stopping them from leaving, he reminds them,"Oh, right. In the next class, I'll teach you about the disarming spell Expelliarmus and its various uses. As I mentioned before, I won't repeat my lessons, so if you miss it you miss."

As all the boys and Penelope left the classroom, Sasuke conjured a large sofa and sat down with Hermione and Gemma as friends. Both girls began discussing their experiences.
