13. Transfiguration

  "Hurry up, you two guys, if you don't hurry up, we'll be late!"

  Draco impatiently urged Crabbe and Goyle, who were still asleep.

  Due to yesterday's storytelling session, several little wizards didn't sleep well.

  Draco and the three of them were still in bed recalling the heroic appearance of the Monkey King. They were so excited that they couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

  Eli tossed and turned and thought, "Does the old man have dry eyes?"

  After going back and forth, several people almost overslept.

  Especially those two idiots, who couldn't wake up no matter how much Eli and Draco screamed.

  The furious Draco picked up a glass of cold water and poured it on the faces of the two idiots, waking them up.

  Several people walked and ran and finally arrived at the classroom.

  There weren't many people in the classroom, it seemed like they came quite early.

  Goyle and Crabbe almost lay down at the door. It was really difficult for them to run all the way and drag their heavy bodies.

  Eli and Draco walked into the classroom. There was a tabby cat squatting on the podium. If you looked closely, you could see that there seemed to be lines like glasses next to the eyes.

  "Not even the professor is here. It seems we came early enough."

  Draco stood in the corridor as if no one else was around, with a proud look on his face.

  He must have seen that Harry Potter and Ron hadn't arrived yet.

  Eli stood aside with a serious face, facing the tabby cat.

  He calmly poked Draco, who was enjoying himself like a fool.

  "What's wrong? If you want to be so serious, why don't you just take a class? The professor hasn't even come yet!"

  Draco started his mysterious sense of superiority again.

  Eli didn't want to care about this idiot anymore.

  Draco was puzzled when he saw Eli respectfully facing the tabby cat on the table.

  "Why are you so respectful to a cat? It seems that it was raised by Professor McGonagall. It is as thin and old as its owner." "It's

  over, this child is useless."

  Eli began to mourn Draco in his heart, The look he looked at seemed to say, "You are really young, frivolous and ignorant."

  Eli suddenly made a standard ninety-degree bow to the cat, then quietly found a seat and sat down.

  Draco looked confused. Could this guy be sick again?

  Draco, who was confused about the situation, sat next to Eli and nudged Eli with his elbow.

  "Hey, what's going on?"

  Unexpectedly, Eli suddenly moved to the side, "Draco, don't hold me back until you die."

  Just when Draco felt inexplicable again, he saw the tabby cat He jumped up suddenly, and then turned into a human form in mid-air.

  Tight bun, emerald green robes, and a pair of glasses on his serious face.

  Isn't this Professor McGonagall or who is it?

  Professor McGonagall slowly walked up to Draco and stared at him.

  At this time, Draco's face became visibly paler the moment he saw the tabby cat transform into a professor.

  When Professor McGonagall stared at him, there was no trace of blood left.

  "Mr. Malfoy, I hope you can show more respect to an old and thin professor next time. 20 points will be deducted from Slytherin!"

  Oh no!

  This was the cry from Eli and the other Slytherin students, who were deducted a full twenty points on the first day of school.

  This is a fatal blow to the little snakes who have a magical obsession with the Academy Cup.

  Everyone stared at Draco fiercely.

  As the person involved, Draco's mind went blank.

  On the first day of school, he spoke ill of her in front of the professor and in front of so many people.

  He died on the spot!

  Professor McGonagall turned around, transformed into the tabby cat again, and squatted in the original place.

  Eli looked at Draco, who started to change color again, with a look of pity on his face, and let out a sigh.

  The effect of killing chickens to scare monkeys is huge.

  The students who experienced this frightening moment looked down at their textbooks honestly.

  It doesn't matter if he takes it in or not, that's it.

  Especially the person involved, Draco, whose young mind has been greatly traumatized.

  The little wizard who arrived later saw that everyone in the classroom was studying seriously, so he found his seat conscientiously.

  Of course, there are exceptions to everything, and there is definitely more than one unlucky one.

  "Oh Merlin, if we had come a little later, her face would have looked horribly ugly!"

  Eli looked over with pity in his eyes.

  Another child wants to mention the shadow of childhood.

  When Draco saw that someone else was unlucky, it was Potter and that Weasley, he gloated and smiled like a fool.

  Eli looked at Draco who was gloating over his misfortune and could only sigh, "This kid has such a big heart."

  Another familiar appearance.

  The tabby cat suddenly transformed into Professor McGonagall.

  Ron stared blankly at the sudden appearance of the professor and said subconsciously, "Good skills."

  Professor McGonagall said very politely.

  "Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Weasley. But I thought maybe one of you should be turned into a pocket watch, so that at least the other one won't be late." "

  Professor, we're lost," said Harry.

  "Then it becomes a map. You shouldn't need a map to find your seat!"

  The two of them found their seats angrily.

  Draco's face fell, why wasn't he deducted points?

  The students have all arrived, and Professor McGonagall has stopped talking nonsense.

  She tapped the blackboard with her wand, and dense text suddenly appeared on the blackboard.

  "Transfiguration will be the most rigorous and dangerous course you will ever come across. If I find someone waving the wand randomly, then please go outside the classroom!" He waved the wand again, and there were words on the table in front of everyone

  . There is a match.

  "The task of this lesson is to turn the match in front of you into a needle. Remember to use the knowledge points taught to you!"

  After receiving the professor's instructions, the little wizards began to try according to what was written on the blackboard.

  But everyone's matches remained motionless, showing no signs of changing.

  Eli was not in a hurry. For him, the transformation technique only required him to have the skills.

  Transfiguration is mainly based on the wizard's wishes to transform dead or living objects into what he wants.

  To successfully complete a transformation, a wizard must have a good understanding of what he or she wants to become.

  If you want to turn the table into a pig, you may have to do a few dissections to understand the composition of the pig.

  Magic like this, which forcibly changes the shape of matter according to the wizard's will, is a great test of the wizard's soul power.

  Therefore, for Eli's extraordinary soul, transformation is a simple matter.

  Perhaps because of the fusion of souls, his memory now has almost reached the level of photographic memory.

  He could remember exactly what a needle looked like.

  Use the wand to tap lightly on the match, and water-like magic will cover the match.

  Under the transformation of magic, the match quickly turned into a silver needle with a threading hole on it.

  Although his current magic control ability is not enough to add some patterns to the needle, this level is already very impressive for the little wizard.

  Professor McGonagall walked quickly to Eli's side and looked at the shining silver needle, very pleasantly surprised.

  "Oh! Mr. Hall has successfully turned the match into a silver needle!"

  The other students looked at Eli in disbelief.

  Hermione glanced at the silver needle on his table like a ghost, then turned around and pointed at the match in front of her with her wand.

  Draco looked at Eli enviously.

  Eli felt the gazes around him and felt very happy in his heart.

  Snapped!

  A thin sound came.

  Eli looked at the silver needle broken into several sections on the table in surprise.

  Professor McGonagall was surprised at first, and then regretful, "It's a pity Mr. Hall, you should control your magic. But to this extent, I think you have understood the secret of transfiguration, so five points for Slytherin!" "

  The little snake next to him suddenly smiled.

  Only Eli looked solemn.

  Draco patted Eli, "Don't be like this, you have succeeded."

  Eli smiled at Draco.

  But the worries in my heart are still there.

  It's not like he hasn't tried transformation before. After he successfully controlled the magic power, there was no overflow of magic power again!

  But the broken silver needles on the table all showed that his magic power once again exceeded his control!

  He could actually feel the increase in magic power during this period, but he didn't expect it to reach this level.

  It seems that it is only a matter of time before the magic power gets out of control, and his life is also in danger!

  He didn't even know how this class ended, and walked out of the classroom with a worried look on his face.

  Harry and Ron suddenly came running.

  "Eli!"

  Eli ended his contemplation, looked at the two people in front of him, and said hello to them.

  It's just that they look a little serious.

  Draco on the side was about to call Eli, but when he saw Harry and Harry talking to Eli, his face darkened and he walked away.

  "Eli, I think we should go find Professor Dumbledore together. The Sorting Hat must have made a mistake!"

  Ron said seriously, and Harry nodded beside him.

  The two of them even wanted to drag Eli away directly, but Eli stopped them.

  "Wait, I think I should calm down first!"

  Ron and Harry looked at Eli.

  Eli shrugged and said to them with a smile, "The Sorting Hat has been around for so many years, so it is unlikely to make mistakes. Maybe I am really suitable for Slytherin!" "

  But..."

  Ron was a little anxious.

  How could Eli, such a friendly and nice person, go to a dark wizard's academy?

  He didn't want Eli to go to a college that was said to be rich in dark wizards.

  Eli patted Ron on the shoulder, "Ron, Harry, I think we all had some misunderstandings about Slytherin before. Maybe he's not that bad?" "But even the

  rumors of You-Know-Who are from Slytherin! Eli

  smiled nonchalantly, "Bad people have their own reasons for being bad. You can't doubt that the rest of the people are also bad people just because he is alone, right? If Slytherin is really that bad, I don't think Dumbledore will let him." He will continue to exist."

  Perhaps out of trust in Dumbledore, or perhaps out of trust in Eli, Ron fell silent.

  "We just want to be in the same house as you,"

  Harry said silently.

  He didn't quite know how bad Slytherin was, he just wanted to be in the same place as Eli.

  Eli was the first person willing to stand up for him and the first person willing to be his friend.

  He considers Eli his best friend!

  Eli looked at Harry and didn't think of what to say.

  He put his hands on their shoulders, "Are we still friends?"

  "Of course!" they both said in unison.

  "Believe me, as long as we are still friends, what does it matter if we are in the same college or not? We all still belong to Hogwarts! Moreover, we can still go to class together and play together after class. Even if it is a holiday, I I want to invite you to my house!"

  After hearing Eli's words, Harry and Ron finally got rid of their grudge against Slytherin.

  I don't want to bother changing colleges anymore.

  It was a relief.

  But Eli still has his own knot in his heart, a knot that threatens his life.
