Chapter 11： Transfiguration Society

At dinner time, Draco couldn't help but take Gore and Crabbe to the long table in Gryffindor to find the mess. Schelling could only help his forehead. How much did Draco love Harry? How could he always worry about provoking each other?

As described in the original book, Draco proposed a duel between wizards to Harry in a contemptuous tone. In his opinion, Harry, who grew up in the Muggle world and had only been exposed to magic for two weeks, guessed anything. I don’t know if it’s a duel, so I’m definitely afraid to fight, so that I can laugh at him to his heart's content, but he didn’t expect Ron on the side to stand up and brush up on his presence, helping Harry to respond to the duel troublesomely. "A duel is a duel! I will be his assistant then, who is your assistant?"

Draco looked back at Crabbe and Gore, and said without hesitation, "Of course it's my brother."

Crabbe and Gore: "Then you see what we do..."

"It's midnight, how about? We meet you in the prize showroom, where the door is never locked." Draco ignored their complaints and went on.

Xie Lin’s slow voice came from a distance, "I said...you guys, discuss duels and fights openly in the public, and they also chose to violate the school regulations at midnight; besides, before asking my opinion, just put I am involved in a duel, is this really good?"

Ron sneered unceremoniously and said: "You obviously proposed the duel, why? Now that I know I'm afraid, I want to back down? A courageous bastard!"

Ron's tone was indeed a bit excessive, even Harry couldn't help but frown, but Harry didn't want to be misunderstood that he was standing on the Slytherin side and chose to be silent. Schelling was irritated by Ron's words. Although he was expressionless, his tone suddenly became very harsh, "I just don't want to break the school rules for boring reasons. Since you want to fight, don't wait until midnight..." said After Xie Lin pulled out his magic wand and tapped it lightly on the cup on the long table. The cup turned into a murderous gray wolf in an instant, with sharp fangs open and a terrifying howl!

There was a scream on the long Gryffindor table, Harry's face suddenly became pale and bloodless, and Ron was so scared that he fell back from the chair and fell to the ground. When Professor McGonagall on the professor seat hurriedly approached, Schelling's wand lightly waved, and the gray wolf instantly changed back to the cup, only to hear Schelling's unsentimental voice: "Now you still want to follow Am I dueling?"

Professor McGonagall arrived with a stern look, and said sharply: "Mr. Malfoy! Could you please explain, what is going on? Hogwarts strictly forbids using magic to hurt classmates!"

Schelling turned to look at Professor McGonagall. He knew that this professor had always been selfless and would not favor Gryffindor, so he had nothing to fear. He replied in a calm tone: "Professor McGonagall, classmate Wesley I have never liked our Malfoy family. I don’t care about it, but just now I just wanted to cancel the duel agreement between them and my brother in a peaceful way, and I was insulted by classmate Wesley—he said I was bold. You’re a fool! And I’m just using Transfiguration to scare them. I don’t think it hurts my classmates anyway, right? There are so many people watching here, and they can all testify."

Professor McGonagall cross-examined several classmates who were dining at the table, and determined that Schelling was really telling the truth. He pressed his lips tightly because Ron’s abusive behavior deducted 20 points from Gryffindor. Gryffindor, who has deducted a lot of points in the past two weeks, is directly at the bottom of the academy rankings. Many of the little wizards of Gryffindor gave Ron and Harry an unfriendly look.

Professor McGonagall turned his head and said to Schelling: "Even if there is a reason, Mr. Malfoy, what you have done is improper. You are only a freshman in the first year. What if magic goes out of control and hurts your classmates by mistake?"

Xie Lin spoke lightly, but his tone was full of unquestionable self-confidence: "Professor, it is impossible to accidentally hurt your classmates." After he said that, with a light wave of his wand, the four cups on the table turned into snakes. Spiders, chicks, red foxes, and then with a light wave, the four small animals entangled together and turned into a snake-shaped monster with a fox tail, cockscomb, and eight spider feet. The forked snake tongue hissed. Xie Lin gave a light wave again, and the snake-shaped monster instantly decomposed into the previous four small animals, and then changed back to four cups.

Professor McGonagall was stunned, and was shocked by Schelling’s performance. She calmed down and said slowly, “Mr. Malfoy, it’s incredible transfiguration. Can you tell me, How far have you learned Transfiguration?"

"To what extent?" Xie Lin reached out and touched his chin, "I think... Except for the conversion curse and disappearance curse in the OWL level, I should have mastered it..." He glanced at Ron and said: "To be honest, just now, if I wanted to, I could completely turn him into a ferret."

These words irritated Ron with shock, fear, anger and hatred, but the presence of Professor McGonagall and the aura of Schelling made him unable to say anything ruthless.

Professor McGonagall's expression is still stern, but Schelling can detect the inadvertent faint joy between her eyebrows, "You come to my office with me now, and I have something to say to you."

Schelling followed Professor McGonagall out of the auditorium. Ron's cursing could be heard in a low voice before leaving, but he couldn't take care of that much, so he could only follow Professor McGonagall to her office. Professor McGonagall’s office is a small study on the side of the corridor on the second floor. There is a burning fireplace. You can see the Quidditch stadium outside the window. Behind Professor McGonagall’s desk is densely packed. The metamorphology books and the students' metamorphology papers are all turned over, not on the bookshelf. It seems that Professor McGonagall's title of "Hat Embarrassment" is not groundless, and Ravenclaw is also suitable for her, Xie Lin secretly thought.

After Professor McGonagall sat down at the desk and stared at Schelling for a few seconds, she organized her words and said: "Mr. Malfoy, you are the most gifted student in transfiguration I have ever seen, you There are too many students in the same grade. In order not to waste your talents, I want to invite you to join my transformation club."

"Transformation Club?" Xie Lin looked puzzled. He knew the original book by heart and never remembered such a club. All he remembered was the duel club that only appeared in the second grade, the slug club that only appeared in the sixth grade, the Gobstone club sponsored by the students... By the way, it seems that Gryffindor’s Vicky Frobisher and Ron When competing for the position of the Quidditch team, I said that I pay more attention to the "curse club". Maybe the transformation club is a similar club.

"That is a club I set up, once a week, there are some of your senior seniors who are excellent in transfiguration, discuss and research the content related to transfiguration. Of course, I also hope that you will often be in "Today's Transfiguration". "Published some academic papers to contribute to the study of deformation." Professor McGonagall explained.

After speaking, Professor McGonagall also pulled out a book from the shelf. It was a metamorphosis note when she was preparing for the OWL exam. It was filled with many private tips and experiences that were not in the textbook. She gave it to Xie Lin, she is very optimistic about Xie Lin and looks forward to his future achievements in the field of metamorphology.

Professor McGonagall’s Transfiguration Notes Obtained!

"This is my honor, Professor." Xie Linlin bowed respectfully and walked out of Professor McGonagall's office.

Back at the Slytherin table in the auditorium, Draco and his attendants, Daphne, Meredith, and Pansy could not wait to surround themselves, "What is Professor McGonagall asking you to do in the office?" Draco Can't help but ask at first.

"Nothing special," Xie Lin explained in a nonchalant tone, "She invited me to join her metamorphosis club and gave me a book on metamorphology."

"Transformation Club?" Several people said in unison. "what is that?"

"I heard that Professor McGonagall set up the club himself." Xie Lin thought for a while and said, "Let's discuss and study the content related to metamorphology."

"Are you kidding?" Pansy was shocked to speak when she heard Schelling's words. Schelling was pretty sure she glanced at Draco again unconsciously, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.

"You are so amazing, so enviable." Meredith was a little jealous. This is undoubtedly Professor McGonagall's special care for Schelling.

"Of course, it doesn’t depend on whose brother I am. If my brother is more diligent and spends more time on studying and doing homework, instead of trying to get sick of the Gryffindor people all day, he is definitely not worse than me, you Are you right, Draco?" Schelling said with a smile.

"Of course!" Draco answered proudly.

At this time, Schelling caught a glimpse of Harry and Ron who were trying to eavesdrop not far away, and said indifferently: "Potter, Wesley, don't you think it's rude to eavesdrop on someone else?"

Draco and the others turned their heads and saw the two people who were indeed sneaking around nearby, staring at them with angrily.

Ron said unwillingly: "Why do you say that we eavesdropped? We just happened to pass by. Do you want your approval to go through the aisle?"

Xie Lin faintly shot back, "It doesn't matter, the matter about the duel just now is not over yet, but I don't intend to violate the school rules for you. It's better to be like this, in this place, under the witness of everyone, I now challenge you. , UU Reading uses a game of wizard chess to determine the outcome, do you dare?" Xie Lin knows that Ron’s most confident talent is mentioned in the original book is wizard chess, he will not defy the fight, thank you Lin is going to hit him severely where he is best, so that he feels a full range of crushing.

A flush of excitement flashed across Ron's face, "Dare! What can't you dare!"

Schelling replied: "Of course, even if it's just a contest of wizard chess, I won't waste my time just to win you. If you want to contest, you still need to put down the chips-how about 10 Jin Jialong?"

Ron suddenly blushed. All his savings didn’t even have a gallon. How to take out 10 gallons, but in the face of the Malfoy family he hated, he couldn’t admit poverty anyway and lost his momentum. Lost face.

Schelling ignored him, "If you don't have Jin Jialong on hand," Schelling turned to look at Harry, "Even if this thing didn't happen because of you, it wouldn't have anything to do with you. This Jialong let you It’s not too much, right?"

"Okay! I believe Ron!" Harry agreed boldly.

After the dinner time, Schelling took his newly earned 10 gallons and happily took Draco and the others back to the Slytherin dormitory. Sitting on the long table was Ron with a look of despair, and Harry, who didn't look good. Harry could only comfort Ron in a low voice—but this comfort didn't seem to be very effective. Losing Garon against Harry It was a trivial matter, but this wizard chess was played in full view, and was defeated by the Malfoys in the crowd. Ron suddenly felt a sense of unlovable life, and he felt that his eyes were full of all around him. He felt very disgraceful, and he covered his face and ran all the way into the Gryffindor dormitory, and Harry hurriedly left the auditorium afterwards.
