Days wandering around Hogwarts

Chapter 463 You play yours, I play mine

People were coming and going in the corridor of the castle. Cedric and Hermione were whispering something beside a suit of armor. It ended with Hermione shaking her head and Cedric disappointed.

Charles happened to be passing by, and after seeing Hermione hurried away, he went over to ask Cedric: "What, did you fail to ask her out on a date during the next Hogsmeade week?"

Cedric punched him on the shoulder angrily and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I just invited her to be my assistant, but she has already agreed to help Finnigan."

"How about you help me?"

Charles shook his head and said, "Not very good, I'd better continue to avoid suspicion."

Cedric could only shake his head helplessly.

Charles asked him, "What criteria do you use to select assistants? Isn't it appearance?"

Cedric was used to his occasional unreliable remarks, and answered seriously: "There are many problems to be solved in the competition, and not everyone is a jack of all trades, so we need assistants with other specialties to help."

Charles nodded and said seriously, "I see. So that's why you want me to help you cook."

Cedric suddenly thought of something, so he said, "Yes, but you have to get the ingredients yourself. It's challenging, isn't it?"

Charles smiled. He wanted himself to deal with the magical creatures.

The two chatted for a while, and someone came to Cedric to introduce himself, while Charles went to the library to do something.

As soon as he took down a book, someone behind him whispered, "Are you finally interested in Animagus?"

Charles turned around and saw Professor McGonagall looking at him with interest, and the book she was holding was the one introducing Animagus.

"I've always been curious," Charles said, "Can you speak after you transform into an Animagus?"

Professor McGonagall replied: "In theory, yes. There are records of this in history."

"But this requires a kind of human deformation technique to transform the vocal cords and other parts into human form."

Charles fell silent after hearing this, as he no longer had vocal cords after his transformation.

He remembered something else and asked, "Professor, can I use spells after transforming?"

"It's like... using a wand with a tail."

Then he noticed that Professor McGonagall's eyes had turned sharp.

Professor McGonagall asked him as if she was asking a question in class: "Did you see anything?"

Charles immediately realized that this was a serious problem, so he said, "That guy, my neighbor's relative, was drinking and bragging that he could use his tail to cast a spell."

Black has not yet registered with the Ministry of Magic, so it is difficult to reveal his name.

And given his personality, it's not surprising that he would say such things.

Professor McGonagall said, "It is said that there are some people who can do it, but I don't think they can do it without drinking."

"This is not an Animagus problem, but some animals that are transformed into are not suitable for casting spells, such as birds."

"However, wandless casting and silent casting can theoretically be used after transformation."

Charles understood and thanked Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall had her own things to do, so she gave him two instructions before she left: "If you want to learn the Animagus transformation, you must inform me. It's very dangerous."

"Finnigan is looking for an assistant recently. It seems that he wants to organize an amusement group to participate in the Triwizard Tournament. I hope you can help to check and not let students with low level join."

Charles could only nod. Not to mention the Animagus matter, the matter of Seamus was enough to give Professor McGonagall a headache.

After leaving the library, Charles met a girl named Renate from Durmstrang while walking down the stairs, and she smiled at him.

Charles immediately went up to him and started a conversation. The two of them walked downstairs chatting and laughing, and met Daphne who was coming up from the basement in the hallway.

Daphne greeted Charles, but Charles just nodded and continued talking to Renate about how many ways there are to eat salmon in Norway.

During dinner, Seamus and Hermione sat together, whispering about who to hire as an assistant.

Seamus asked Charles, "Charles, do you know anyone who has a deep understanding of the dark arts?"

Among the classmates they knew, there were not many who openly had a deep understanding of the dark arts, and these students were mostly concentrated in Slytherin House.

Charles, who was eating a steak, replied without looking up: "You can go find Malfoy if you want."

Seamus was silent for a moment, and then he felt that there was some truth in what he said. Malfoy had good grades, was a Slytherin student, and was afraid of Charles from the bottom of his heart, so he was not worried that he would cause trouble.

Charles finished his dinner in a hurry and left the cafeteria earlier than others.

Lavender asked in confusion: "What happened to Charles tonight? Why did he eat so little?"

Seamus said: "He seems to be working on some magic trick, he's been like that for days."

Hermione suddenly thought of something and whispered, "In the afternoon, I heard him talking about Animagus with Professor McGonagall in the library."

Harry was surprised when he heard this and said, "He wants to learn the Animagus transformation?"

"But that's not surprising. It's Charles after all."

The people around nodded.

Harry continued, "I wonder what animal he'll turn into, maybe a sheep."

Many people wanted to say ferocious animals, but they were amused by him and Ron even choked.

At the same time, in the mirror space, Charles carefully went over in his mind what he was going to do next.

Ruby stood aside, curious about what he was up to today, with the Hufflepuff's golden cup in front of her.

Today Charles suddenly thought of an interesting question and decided to give it a try.

He began to cast a spell, and his body quickly transformed into his Animagus form.

At the same time, some parts of the body change.

Sound relies on vibration, so not having vocal cords is not a problem. Would it also be effective if a large piece of elastic skin could become the vocal cord structure?
There was a buzzing sound around them, the sound changed, and after a long time, Ruby heard a deep voice: "Ruby, open your wings a few times when you hear me speak."

Ruby spread her wings and flapped them a few times, then continued to watch what the jellyfish was doing.

Charles' tentacles began to move in a rhythmic motion, like a tongue when performing singing magic.

But the scene frightened Phoenix a little, and Ruby couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Next, Charles tried to sing.

……

"what!"

Harry was doing his homework in the common room when he suddenly cried out in pain, holding his head.

Hermione asked hurriedly: "Harry, what's wrong?"

Harry covered his head and said, "I heard a weird sound."

Ron asked, "Is it Charles singing again?"

Harry shook his head and said, "That's definitely not Charles, that voice..."

"I don't know what that sound is, I don't know how to describe it, I can't put it into words..."
