Chapter 41: Conversation
Gryffindor only had this one transformation class this afternoon. When the bell rang, Professor McGonagall arranged a lot of homework and announced the end of the class in the bitter face of all the students.
Coven left the class with Professor McGonagall and went all the way to Professor McGonagall's office.
…..
"Sit down first, Coven."
After entering the office, Professor McGonagall's expression softened and no longer had a straight face. Instead, she greeted him with a little kindness.
"Thank you, professor." Coven obediently sat in the guest chair outside the office.
"Relax, kid." Professor McGonagall walked to the back of the desk and sat down. She smiled and said, "We're just chatting. I want to understand your progress."
"Yes, professor." Coven maintained his usual persona during the holidays in front of Professor McGonagall, appearing a little reserved and polite.
"Unbelievable." Professor McGonagall looked at Coven carefully. Her eyes were full of praise. She said softly, "Professor Flitwick told me yesterday that we underestimated your talent. I didn't expect you to give me such a big surprise today. You have now completely mastered the 'Silent Spell', right?"
Hearing this, Coven deliberately pondered for a moment, and then nodded honestly. "Yes, Professor. After I went back to the dormitory last night, I tested a few spells according to Professor Flitwick's instruction and then mastered the Silent Spellcasting technique."
"God, this is really unbelievable." Professor McGonagall praised again and then asked, "How did you do it? I mean, is there any special feeling? I guess it is related to your blood."
"There doesn't seem to be any special feeling." Coven recalled and said, "However, I summed up three points and then followed the three points. I easily used the 'Silent Casting Technique'."
"Can you tell me?" Professor McGonagall leaned forward slightly and asked seriously.
"Of course." Coven didn't hide anything and immediately told her the three main points of the' Silent Magic Technique '.
Coven wouldn't think that this Silent Spellcasting was so novel in the magic world. At least in the morning, he found that Professor David was very skilled in the Silent Spellcasting, so there was nothing to hide.
After Coven finished speaking, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but clap and praise, "It's very, very perfect! I don't even have a better supplement."
"Thank you, professor..." Coven looked shy and scratched the back of his head.
"I think if Professor Flitwick knew about this, he would be both helpless and happy." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, "He also told me yesterday that he was looking for time to tutor you, so that you could master the silent spell casting of the 'floating spell' as soon as possible."
At this point, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but chuckle. "In the end, you only learned it in one night. Not only did you master the silent casting of the 'floating spell', but you also summed up the fundamental law of the 'floating spell'."
"In the future, as long as you master and memorize the spell, most of the spells can be successfully used through the 'Silent Spell'."
"I really want to see the expression on Professor Flitwick's face when he finds out about this."
Looking at Professor McGonagall's current expression, Coven smiled shyly, but in his heart, he was thinking, 'This Professor McGonagall is not as old-fashioned as I think….'
"Alright, let's continue talking about other things." Professor McGonagall gradually restrained the teasing look on her face. Then she asked gently, "Since your talent is so strong, can you tell me what classes you have previewed during the holidays and what level of preview?"
"Of course, Professor." Coven answered honestly, "I have finished previewing all the classes related to magic spells. Transfiguration, Charm Class, Defense Against The Dark Arts, I have finished learning all the three courses in the textbook."
"For Herbology. I have learned more than half of my preview, and for Potion, I have only memorized the contents of the textbook… Because Mr. Ollivander didn't allow me to study on my own. I was afraid that if there were no one to guide me, it would be dangerous to make Potion."
"In the last history of magic, I only previewed the general content and didn't recite it."
"I have to say one more time. You are the most talented child I have ever seen." Professor McGonagall could not help but praise, and then said, "Then, I think you must have your own learning plan next, right? Can you tell me?"
"Of course." After all, no matter how hard he tried, he could not compare to being guided by a professional. Therefore, he said frankly, "My plan is that I will slowly learn from the course without a complete preview. As for the three courses that I have mastered, I plan to find books in the library to study on my own."
"In addition, Professor." Coven paused for a moment and asked hesitantly, "I want to find a place where I can practice magic spells quietly because it is very inconvenient to practice in the dormitory. I will disturb the students."
Professor McGonagall could not help but praise Coven for being such a good child.
Therefore, Professor McGonagall looked more amiable and said in a gentler tone, "Your plan is very good. If there is something you don't understand, you can come to me or go to Professor Flitwick. We will help you and provide some suggestions for what books you borrow."
"Thank you, professor." Coven thanked him excitedly.
"This is what we should do." Professor McGonagall was very satisfied with Coven's courtesy. She continued, "It might be difficult to practice magic spells because we can't go to the classroom to apply for practice for a student alone. I think it might take some time to arrange this. So, you should focus on borrowing books for the time being."
"Yes, professor." Hearing this, Coven showed a slightly disappointed look.
Seeing this, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but soften her heart.
After some thought, Professor McGonagall stood up and pointed to the window on the right. "How about this?" "That's School's central courtyard. I'll place a few magic targets there later. If you want to practice magic, you can go there to practice."
Seeing that Coven's eyes suddenly lit up, Professor McGonagall said with a bit of affection, "Most professors can see the situation over there through the window. So, if there is a problem with your practice of magic, it is easy to be discovered by the professors in time."
"Thank you again, professor!" Coven got what he wanted, so he was very sincere at this time.
"Of course." Professor McGonagall chuckled again. "Don't forget to clean up the place with the 'Restore Spell' every time you finish practicing the spell."
"I will, Professor!" Coven nodded heavily.
Then, Professor McGonagall asked what books Coven had borrowed from the library. After thinking for a while, she gave Coven the suggestion to borrow some books next.
Coven remembered it humbly.
After chatting about some life problems, the two ended the conversation. Coven said goodbye to Professor McGonagall with great satisfaction. He left the office and walked briskly back to the dormitory...
