Things went even more smoothly than Albert expected.

However, this time, there was no appearance of a task panel, which surprised Albert. In the past, whenever something like this happened, there would usually be a task panel first. Why did it feel a bit... strange?

Albert stopped in front of the portrait of Fat Lady and checked the task panel. As expected, there was only that annoying "return lost gold" task.

"Do you want to come in?" the impatient Fat Lady couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, sorry. The password is 'singer'," Albert said the password, and the portrait of Fat Lady spun open, revealing a hidden passage behind.

As soon as Albert entered the common room, he heard someone calling him.

It was George.

He was watching Fred and Lee Jordan play Wizard Cards at a nearby table.

"How's it going?" Albert asked.

"George and I became Chasers, Angelina also became a Chaser smoothly, Wood is the Keeper, and Charlie is the Seeker," George said. "The other two Seeker substitutes are Katie Bell from the first year and Cormac McLaggen, who's considered a Keeper substitute. By the way, what did Dumbledore want from you?"

"The last time that thing happened. But Mr. Hagrid agreed to help me solve the problem," Albert explained casually and then turned to the girl next to him. "Congratulations on getting what you wanted, Angelina."

"Thank you," Angelina smiled, "But I didn't expect you not to join."

"I had other things to do," Albert said.

"Alicia's flying is pretty good," Angelina patted her friend on the shoulder, "Unfortunately, if she had practiced with us last semester, she would definitely become an official player this year."

"If she practices more this year, she'll be able to play next year," Albert paused and added, "I remember Katie Bell is a girl, right? It seems that the Gryffindor Quidditch team will have a lot of girls on the field for quite some time. I dare say that this is an extremely rare situation."

"Indeed," George nodded in agreement, "But when the time comes, everyone will be on the field, and you'll still be a substitute."

"Isn't that great? I can take it easy," Albert joked, "But I know someone who might be a substitute for a long time."

"Who?" George asked.

"Cormac McLaggen."

When Albert mentioned this name, he noticed someone looking in their direction. Albert turned his head and saw Cormac McLaggen.

"Why?" George asked, puzzled.

"Idiot!" Albert reminded him, "Wood will be the next Quidditch captain, and his position as Keeper will probably last until he graduates. There's no need to pick a substitute for that position. However, I guess Charlie wants a Seeker substitute just in case, to prevent the same thing that happened last year from happening again."

"That makes sense," Fred chimed in, "Wanna play a round?"

"Sure!" Albert said, "But my cards are in the dormitory."

"I wasn't talking to you. Go and stay on the side," Fred waved his hand dismissively at Albert, "Now, no one wants to play cards with you. You go develop more cards. There are still too few cards right now."

"I'll make my own deck another day," Angelina took the cards handed to her by Lee Jordan, "This game is much more fun than Gobstones, but the cards are a bit rough."

"Mm, after all, it's still in the early stages," Albert asked, "Do you want to join the Wizard Cards Club?"

"What's that?" Angelina looked a bit surprised.

"Well, it's exactly what it sounds like, a casual club," Albert pointed to the few of them around and said, "Currently, there are only four of us."

"What is this club for?" Angelina asked curiously, "To play Wizard Cards together?"

"Well, how should I put it?" Albert thought for a moment before answering her question, "It's a club for Wizard Cards enthusiasts. We meet once every last weekend of the month. We update our card library and announce more refined rules for the Wizard Cards game, that's it."

"Did you just decide this?" Lee Jordan asked.

"No, I decided it on the train," Albert shook his head.

"Why didn't I know?" George didn't believe it.

"I didn't mention it at that time, to promote this game was an inevitable process," Albert continued to make up stories.

"Don't listen to him nonsense, Albert is definitely trying to fool you again," Fred played his card and said to Angelina, "It's your turn."

"As expected," Lee Jordan made a knowing expression.

"You guys continue, I have something to do. If you have any suggestions regarding the game, write them down," Albert then looked at Alicia, who was watching the two play cards, and asked, "Do you want in too?"

"Want what?" Alicia didn't understand Albert's words.

"Your own set of cards," Albert explained.

Alicia was surprised, "Is that okay?"

"Of course, wait a moment," Albert returned to the dormitory and quickly filled out a card for Alicia.

The effect was as follows: Substitute: Whenever a Quidditch player card is sent to the graveyard, gain 1 health point.

"Why didn't you add any attacks?" Fred couldn't help but complain.

"The game needs to remain balanced. Anyway, you guys continue, I have to go to the Transfiguration Club," Albert didn't forget about the Transfiguration Club, though he was already late, he still had to go.

"See you later. When you come back, stop by the kitchen and get some late-night snacks," Fred suddenly shouted at Albert.

"That's not on my way," Albert rolled his eyes and walked out of the entrance to the common room.

When he arrived at the sixth floor of the castle and stood at the door of classroom 21, the Transfiguration Club had already been going on for more than half an hour.

Albert hesitated for a moment, knocked on the wooden door, and then pushed it open.

The number of chairs in the Transfiguration Club was reduced by one, and some members had been replaced.

In addition to Katrina, Diego also joined the Transfiguration Club.

"Have a seat, Mr. Anderson. We were just in the middle of a discussion," Professor McGonagall turned her head to look at Albert, motioning for him to sit down.

Albert walked towards Field, took the empty armchair, and looked at Katrina and Diego. Katrina was using a simple wooden chair, while Diego was using a three-legged stool.

Compared to others, it was quite humble.

But considering their level of Transfiguration, it was already pretty good.

Professor McGonagall was explaining Transfiguration techniques. She turned a chair into a dachshund and had it run in circles.

This was a very advanced Transfiguration magic, and it was a bit challenging for the newly joined members. Both Katrina and Diego looked a bit bewildered.
