Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 145 The end of the holiday
The notebook that Professor McGonagall gave was actually written by Dumbledore?

Mike almost jumped up when he discovered this. As Dumbledore is currently recognized as the strongest white wizard in the wizarding world, there is no need to explain too much about the value of the notebook he wrote himself.

The excited Mike couldn't wait to flip through the transfiguration notes.

This notebook is not thick, and Mike has already read the entire notebook after reading it all morning.But to Mike's disappointment, this notebook should be the experience notes written by Dumbledore when he was studying transfiguration in school. Most of the records in it are the basis of some transfiguration, which is not what Mike expected at the beginning advanced knowledge.

It can be seen that Dumbledore was definitely a fan of Transfiguration when he was many years old. In addition to the class notes of Transfiguration, he also recorded many anecdotes about Transfiguration in his notes.

For example, it is clearly recorded in the notes that Transfiguration was originally a crude version of alchemy spells invented by an alchemist for use in combat and daily life. It was separated from the magic system and became an independent magic topic.

Although this notebook can't make Mike's strength soar in a short period of time, many tips recorded in it have also benefited Mike a lot.There are even some training methods that can improve the deformation accuracy in the long run.

But these methods require persistent training, and Mike can only take it slowly.

Compared with the long flow of transfiguration notes, the "Guide to the Master of Fire" sent by Professor Flitwick seems a bit simple and violent.

The Fire Master's Guide is a series of books all written by Ice d. Newgate, known in modern times as the Fire Master, with the help of his father Edward Newgate.

Edward Newgate died before the book was published, and Ace Newgate died a few years after the book was published.

When this book was first published, it caused an uproar in the entire European wizarding world. Before that, although many powerful wizards understood the power of the Flame Curse and often used it in actual combat, no one was willing to use it. This knowledge is taught to ordinary wizards.

Therefore, "Guide to the Flame Master" has become a sacred book for ordinary wizards, and together with Ace Newgate and his father Edward Newgate, they have been dubbed the title of Flame Master.

But if you think that "The Flame Master's Guide" is a set of cheap civilian benefits, you are completely wrong. In fact, the Newgate family sells "The Flame Master's Guide" very expensively, a set of seven books It costs 1000 Galleons in total, or 200 Galleons if you buy them separately.

The Newgate family has made a lot of money relying on this set of books for decades. Hogwarts discussed with the Newgate family to include the "Fire Master's Guide" as early as shortly after the book was published. The library in the school was rejected by the Newgate family because it would affect sales.

After learning about this period of history, Mike couldn't help curling his lips. It is because the headmasters of Hogwarts have been relatively mild over the past few hundred years. The Te family is probably dead long ago.

But having said that, although it is so expensive, the "Fire Master Guide" is worth the money.

This set of books records in detail the various variant usages of the Flame Curse, including the explosive fireballs and incendiary fireballs that Mike once used.

This set of books gave Mike a lot of inspiration. Before that, Mike was completely a fireball maniac, and he only knew how to send fireballs to blow people up.But after reading this set of books, Mike really understood the art of fire.

The damage that flames can cause is not limited to combustion and explosion. Flames consume oxygen while burning. As long as this feature is used well, creatures can enter a state of suffocation.

And the flame will heat the air when it burns, the hot air rises and the cold air falls, the interaction between the hot and cold air will form wind, and the wind will intensify the fire, thus forming a circle of conscience and infinitely enhancing the power of the flame .

But these are easy to say, but to do it requires extremely strong control and countless times of practice. Even though Mike's magic control has made great progress after the Ravenclaw trial, he still can't do it. easy.

For the rest of the Christmas holiday, Mike stayed in the Response Room, practicing the subtle control of the flame spell, so much so that he forgot the time.

It wasn't until Penello appeared in front of him that he realized that the Christmas vacation was over.

"Why are you here?" Mike looked at Penello in surprise and asked, "Oh! The Christmas holiday is over, isn't it!"

Penello understood what was going on when Mike looked like he didn't know what year it was, sighed and said helplessly: "You started again, obviously not long ago you taught me not to practice magic spells too hard, now I practiced until I even forgot the time.

You can't even take care of yourself when I'm gone.Judging by your embarrassed appearance, you must have not eaten on time these few days. "

Mike rolled his eyes, raised his hand to clean up, and then released, restoring his messy hairstyle and clothes to the way they were before entering the Response Room.

"You are not happy anymore. You didn't come to eat dinner tonight. Fortunately, I brought you some." Penello put a few plates of food in front of Mike and said, "Eat quickly, tonight's duel competition The first round of the competition is about to start, and I will go to the competition in a while."

While speaking, Penello stroked his long hair intentionally or unintentionally, revealing the emerald earrings on his ears.

When Mike saw this, he didn't know what Penello meant. Although he was hungry, he couldn't see the steaming food on the table. Not bad, do you still like my Christmas present?"

Penello didn't resist Mike's embrace, and took the tip of her hair and circled it around her fingers as if thinking about it. After a while, she said coquettishly: "Well~ it's okay~"

"Hey, as long as you are satisfied." Mike was relieved when he saw Penello's face showing a smile, and went back to the table and ate voraciously, "I'll be with you in a while." Go to the field."

Penello didn't say anything more, and came behind Mike with a smile and rubbed Mike's shoulders.

Rubbing Penelli seemed to have discovered something, the strength of his hand suddenly increased, pinched the numb tendon on Mike's shoulder and asked sharply, "Where is the scarf I gave you?"
