Chapter 57 - 57 - progress

Name:Harry Potter But AU??? Author:DAFR
Harry's POV

The next month and a half was full of classes- which except of potions were just an unneeded repeat, but while classes became his greatest chore, and he started looking for a way to use that time usefully, his other projects progressed smoothly.

1) He almost finished all of his biology books.

2) His magical control progressed to a point he can now do Sweet Home Alabama on the Tesla, which while is the easiest song to learn to play, did make his control over magic jump to the level of a third year's if they were using a wand while he was wandless.

3)Trying to understand why his inanimate to animate transfigurations don't work wasn't easy, after almost a month into the dissecting and trying to understand the difference between wand animation and wandless animation, he finally went to the professor McGonagle.

Flashback

October 7th

Wednesday

After transfigurations (last class of the day)

"Hey Professor, when is your office hours? It is just that I can't recall you telling us about them and I have some questions I need help with when you have the time."

When talking to the professor who was the most 'fair' in school according to the Gryffindors and the number three most biased according to anyone else (first place - Snape, second place - Dumbledore, and after the end of last year there was a debates according to the twins about switching them.) it was important to be polite and maybe a little meek.

"As I have responsibilities both as a head of house and as deputy headmistress, I don't have office hours, instead you can ask me now."

"Thank you, well, I remember that in our first class last year you changed the table into a pig and then made it a table again.

So, I was wondering - are the creatures we transfigurations truly alive? If so, don't you kill them when you Change them to their original form?"

"Mr. Peverell, I had this question in every third year's class since I first started teaching transfigurations. In fact, I asked this question my self when I was a third year.

The answer is that we do not create life, we create a gollum that imitates life, you can see it yourself if you take Arithmancy - one of your choices in your third year after your fifth year when you are taught the breaking of spells and creating spells when one of your assignments is creating an inanimate to animate transfigurations spell and the way you creat the spell in a way you give it patterns about how to behave with your wand movements and words."

End flashback

This was exactly what Harry was missing in his wandless transfigurations, while he had enough control to transfigure those stuff, and his biology and chemistry studies helped in knowing how it should become, his intent wasn't right as he only thought about the body without putting habits like making sure it breaths, making his nerves to release electricity and all the other stuff.

After that he finally made progress, and his transfigurations started catching up to his magical control.

4) as he finished all the seven years of charm studies last year, he started studying master level charms, yet was stuck on the first he wanted to study, which was the Fidelius Charm.

Apparently, it doesn't only super hard to make the intent to make every living creatures forget a place and even if they remember the place(by being told about it by the 'secret keeper), if they aren't the 'Secret keeper' they are unable to tell anyone in any way- all of this if it succeeds. More then that, this charm Deals with souls as the secret is being kept in someone's soul, so if you don't have a connection to the other person's soul (by being a person you truly trust with all your heart), it is impossible to make the magic truly work, instead it would work for a time before stoping, something not the caster or the 'secret keeper' would know.

This last part explained how Sirius was thought to be the traitor. He wasn't a person the caster trusted with all his heart, so after a time the spell was canceled and Peter Pettigrew managed to tell Voldemort, then after the night happened they all thought it was Sirius was the traitor.

The only problem with the theory is why did Pettigrew keep hiding?

Anyway, Harry wanted to figure out how the charm Interacts with souls.

5) his blacksmithing finally moved toward sabers, something that he managed to quickly understand how to create as the difference between swords and sabers aren't much, but learning creating a curved blade instead of a straight one is helping him refine his control over his body and eye-hand coordination, with having to hit exactly in the right place with all his strength.

6) he started working in bed on his last Occlumency technique.

7) after more then a year after arriving to Hogwarts he finally got his answer about his faster magical strangth gaining.

It wasn't him starting his teens or him being in Hogwarts, it was both.

While his growing body made sure he is physically in his prime years to get magical energy, Hogwarts was a place with so much magic his depleted energy returned quicker then outside of Hogwarts, and after three days of experimentations and one day of total exhaustion he figured out the best way to enlarge his magical energy pool is by exhausting his magical reserves three times a day while in Hogwarts.

All of those things made sure he had different schedule then before.

20:45-21:00- lay in bed and use all his magic on the Greengrass Occlumency technique which after learning he had to say was genius in its simplicity, using the idea of basic Magics and the energy of your emotions to create an impenetrable place in which if someone passes he destroy himself and the memories he search for while also going with the basics all the way.
