The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 326 The Crying Miss Beaver

Animagus When they transform into animals, they still retain the thinking ability, self-awareness and memory similar to their human form.

Even living in animal form for long periods of time, they still have normal human lifespans.

Animagus have a potential advantage when it comes to espionage and crime.Professor McGonagall once turned into a cat and observed Ada's life in the orphanage up close.

Based on this, the Ministry of Magic established the Animagus Registry, including Professor McGonagall, and there are only seven people registered.Unregistered Animagus, if found, would likely be sent to Azkaban.

This transfiguration is long and complex, and mistakes in any link can often lead to disastrous consequences.To become an Animagus, one must have both transfiguration and potion talents, and must strictly follow complicated and tedious steps.

In the first step, you need a mandrake leaf and keep it in your mouth for a whole month.As long as this leaf leaves the mouth, it means that all previous efforts are wasted and the whole process has to start all over again.

At the second full moon, put the leaf soaked in your own saliva into a small transparent bottle and let it receive the pure moonlight.Then add your own hair, a teaspoon of pure dew, and a chrysalis chrysalis to the vial.

Leave this mixture in a quiet and dark place, safe from prying eyes and disturbances, until the next storm.

While waiting for the storm, do the following every sunrise and sunset: point the tip of your wand to your heart, and say the incantation: "Amador, Animo, Animador, Animagus."

After Ada understood the whole process of Animagus' transformation, she felt scalp numb to the complexity of this magic. Talent, hard work, and chance are all indispensable.

Ada can't do the first step alone. What if she accidentally swallows a mandrake leaf into her stomach while eating or drinking water?
Young man, please start again?

Ada felt that the first step could directly destroy her mentality.The concubine really can't do it!
And the process of waiting for the next storm may last for weeks, months or even years.Not only must the vial not be exposed to the sun or any external interference, but it is also necessary to recite mantras to myself twice a day, rain or shine.

This is why Ada has never been interested in Animagus, and why she didn't assume this, because this kind of magic is too difficult.

Compared to this, Ada would rather believe that James and Sirius could fight.After all, Sirius has been blown to be the second in command of the Death Eaters, so it shouldn't be a problem to hang a werewolf.

If James and Sirius really become unregistered Animagus, it can only be said that the two of them are worthy of being the father and godfather of the savior.

It is really cruel to talk about the European Emperor with a non-chief like Ada.

There is only so much that can be learned from the books, and the remaining conjectures need to be confirmed by people who know them, such as Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.

In fact, Professor Lupine is the best candidate. He should be the person who knows James and Sirius best now.

But Ada hesitated, not only because of Dumbledore's instructions, but also because she didn't want to tear the professor's scars.

Every time he sees Harry, will Professor Lupine think of James Potter, will he think of the happy time of the four of them; every time he hears the name of Sirius Black, will Professor Lupine think of James Potter? What a heartache.

Uncovering Professor Lupin's scars in person, Ada felt that this was more cruel than talking about luck with others.

Unless she has to, she doesn't want to do such a thing. It's not the heart of the Virgin, but the most basic kindness of being born.

As the night deepened, the people in the library slowly dispersed, and even Hermione Granger left here.After putting the books back where they were, Ada also left the library under Mrs. Pince's gaze.

In the empty corridor, only Ada's own footsteps echoed, and the shaking torches elongated Ada's shadow, full of the thriller's visual sense.

Ada is like those heroines who are dying, wandering alone in the thousand-year-old castle, maybe there will be unknown horrors waiting for her around a certain corner.

It's just that Ada didn't wait for any terror, but waited for a slight sob.

The sound was small and intermittent, and if it weren't for the silence in the corridor at the moment, Ada wouldn't have noticed the sobbing.

Following the sobs, Ada saw a huddled figure behind the statue, and there was a big outrageous schoolbag at her feet.

I thought it was a student who was crying because of too much pressure, but Ada didn't expect that the person crying so wronged was Hermione Granger.

Hearing the footsteps, Hermione Granger stopped crying immediately, she looked up just in time to meet Ada's searching eyes.

Miss Beaver hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face, and greeted Ida pretending to be strong, she said: "Hi, Ada, the weather is so nice, are you going out for a walk too?"

It's just because of crying just now, Hermione's voice inevitably trembled when she spoke, and she wiped herself like a little cat when she wiped her tears.After all, she is just a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, and she will cry because of sadness when she is vulnerable.

"I don't know when you also like to take a walk in the moonlight, since you met Ron and Harry?" Ada asked with a smile.

Hearing the names of Harry and Ron, the grievances in Hermione's heart welled up again, and the tears that had just been forcibly stopped had the tendency to burst again.Hiding in a corner and crying secretly is already very embarrassing, but it is even more embarrassing that this matter was discovered, and the person who discovered it was Ada.

Hermione turned her head away in self-deception, she didn't want Ada to see her cry, and she didn't want to show her weakness to the people she regarded as her target.

I feel pity, not to mention the old slave.Hermione lost her former pride and cried so hard that Ada felt a little distressed when she saw it.

What's the matter with Ron and Harry, are their emotional intelligence enough to eat?Why did you leave Hermione here alone, aren't you afraid that someone with malicious intentions will take advantage of it?
In the first grade, the two of you were not like this!

Ada squatted next to Hermione, took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, and said softly: "If there is something unhappy, you might as well say it, it's better than holding it in your heart."

The little girl took the handkerchief, thanked in a low voice, wiped away her tears again, and then slowly expressed the grievance in her heart.

This semester Hermione chose all the courses, and at the beginning of the semester, she was able to cope with the continuous course schedule very well.But as time went by, the pressure of studying continued to increase, and Hermione gradually became unable to cope.

The excessive pressure caused Hermione to become sensitive inside, and her temper became much more irritable.Coincidentally, the incident between Crookshanks and Scabbers happened again, and Ron's incomprehension and cynicism made Hermione feel aggrieved.

The appearance of the Marauder's Map and the Firebolt exacerbated this situation.

Hermione felt that she had done nothing wrong, and she cared more about the safety of her good friends than broomsticks and Quidditch.But both Harry and Ron didn't understand her, but were very angry because of her "informant".

Feeling wronged and stressed, there was no one to talk about. Apart from hiding alone and crying silently, and secretly licking her wounds, Hermione had no other choice.

"Why not drop one or two less important subjects?" Ada suggested, "like Muggle Studies. We are all from Muggle society, and we know more about Muggles than textbooks written by wizards." People of the status quo, aren't they?"

Ada continued: "There is no need to worry about one's origin, which is not up to us to decide. There is also no need to consider how wizards view Muggles and cater to their views. This is a social phenomenon, not ours. That can change now."

Hermione asked, "So you chose Ancient Runes and Protecting Fantastic Beasts."

"Actually, I just want to choose one of the ancient runes. Professor Babling's jokes are really good!" Ada spread her hands, "But there is no way, each student must choose at least two electives."

Hermione lowered her furry head and said weakly: "I want to learn too much, maybe I'm still not confident enough..."
