A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 41
In fact, according to what Charlie learned, there are still many ways to move in the wizarding world.

However, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
First, of course, I saw the apparition performed by the house-elves before, which is teleportation. With a thought, you can appear where you want to go. The speed is fast, and you can cast it without using other magic items.

The disadvantage is that it is extremely difficult to learn. If one is not good, the body may be separated by space. For example, your upper body appears where you want to go, and the lower body remains in place.
And it consumes more magic power. If the magic power in the body is not high enough, it cannot move too far.

Second, the door key has the advantage that it can be teleported to a long distance in an instant, but consumes very little magic power. The disadvantage is that it is not so easy to obtain, the production cost is extremely high, and the activation speed is relatively slow.

Thirdly, Floo Powder, the advantage is that it can be teleported point-to-point without consuming your own magic power, and you can stick your head into the stove to communicate with the other side, and even eat the things sent by the other side with the stove tongs.
The disadvantage is that it is easy to get a whole body of ashes, and the Floo powder is used less and needs to be replenished in time, which is more expensive. At the same time, it must be used point-to-point in a place with a fireplace.

Fourth, the broomstick has the advantage that it hardly needs to consume its own magic power, can fly in the air for a long time, and can experience the fun of flying at high altitudes, which is more exciting.

The disadvantage is that compared with the above three, the speed is slower, and it is exposed to high altitude for a long time, it is easy to be spotted by Muggles, it is easy to be blown into a fool, and it may be struck by lightning in thunderstorm weather.

Of course, in addition to the above four, there seems to be a secret flying spell, which can directly transform into a black smoke or white smoke and fly, but it should consume a lot of magic power.

"Ah!!! Help, someone help me!"

A terrified shout instantly woke Charlie up from his contemplation,

He took a closer look, it turned out that Neville didn't know what was going on, and he rode a broomstick soaring into the sky alone, and now he fell off the broomstick again,
Originally, he had been squatting here all this afternoon, because he was afraid that Alice would ride a broomstick for the first time. If something happened, he would rescue her in time.

After all, when he was resting in the dormitory at noon, he had been watching Alice and Hermione, studying a book called "The Magical Quidditch", discussing the flying skills in it, and seemed quite nervous.

In fact, this is quite normal. Both Alice and Hermione are academic masters. They are good at reading and memorizing books, but they are not very good at this kind of exercise that does not focus on the brain but only on the body, like riding a broom to fly all over the sky.

Now that Alice has not taken off yet, Neville has fallen from the sky, so should he make a move?

This question only stayed in his mind for a moment, and he immediately had the answer.

Of course to save!

"Oh, Merlin's beard!"

Ms. Hooch looked at Neville who fell from the sky, and her face turned pale immediately.

If you fall from such a height, if you fall head-down, even a little wizard with an unusual physique may be seriously injured or even killed directly.

At this time, the distance between her and Neville, as well as the speed at which Neville was falling, made it difficult for the levitation spell to work.

Unless she can now perform the "rapid fall slowdown" in the high-level levitation technique, it is a pity that only Dumbledore can perform that level of levitation technique,
Fortunately, at this critical moment, Neville's magic robe was caught by a spear in the hands of a sculpture on the roof of the castle.

But the good times didn't last long, because the spear was too sharp, the magic robe was directly scratched,

Seeing that Neville was about to fall again, a long tail suddenly protruded from the bottom of the sculpture. With a quick roll, it wrapped around Neville's arm and pulled it to the side of the sculpture.
"Look, what is that?"

"Oh, Merlin, is that a cat?"

"A cat, does a cat have that much strength?"

The little wizards below, seeing that Neville was rescued by a kitten, all showed incredible expressions,
The chubby Neville weighs at least seventy to eighty catties, and the kitten, which doesn't look like an adult, can lift him up easily with just its tail. It's really amazing.
You know, if the one standing on the top of the building is a fire dragon, an eagle horse, or even a big dog, they will not be surprised, after all, the size is there,

But a kitten who is obviously not yet an adult is really surprising,
After all, even in the magical world of magic, some basic rules will not change.

Although large magical creatures are not necessarily stronger than smaller magical creatures, they are generally more powerful.

"Suspect, isn't that Alice's pet cat Charlie?"

At this time, many of the little wizards in Gryffindor had already recognized Charlie's identity.
At present, there are only two cats in Hogwarts, one is Mrs. Norris, and the other is Alice’s Charlie, and Charlie follows Alice every day, either accompanying Alice to class, or waiting for Alice at the door after class.
So now at Hogwarts, there are still many young wizards who know Charlie.

"Thank you, Charlie!"

Neville sat on the roof with the sculpture in his arms, gasped and thanked Charlie for saving him,
Charlie nodded. Seeing that Mrs. Hooch was flying towards this side on a broomstick below, he turned around and left quickly.

Why did he save Neville?
First of all, he wasn't sure if Neville's accident would be the same as before because of his existence, just broke his wrist, if he really fell to his death, it would be bad,
Of course, this is not very important to Charlie. Generally, in the face of such situations, his philosophy has always been that if he can save it, it is his love, and if he does not save it, it is his duty. Neville is not Alice, and he does not owe Neville anything.
At most, he could get five experience points from Neville, oh, including his golden-backed toad, Rifle, a total of six experience points.

The most important thing is that he feels that he should slowly show some of his abilities in front of everyone now.
Otherwise, one day when he suddenly kills a dragon, everyone may not be able to accept it, and then have some bad thoughts,

But if he shows his ability little by little, then although everyone will be surprised, they will take it for granted and can be accepted.

Of course, there is another point, he needs to prove to all wizards, mainly to Dumbledore, that he is a kind-hearted cat,
Even if it is very powerful, it will not cause harm to the wizarding world.

　There was a mistake in the dormitory location of the four major colleges before, and it has been revised. If you have time, you can go back to Chapter 38 and read it again!
