Hogwarts: Don't call me Wandmaker

Chapter 24 Animagus

[Fir, Wizard Hair, 11 1/3 inches]

【Condition: Perfect】

【Features: Transfiguration +10 (50)%
Disguise: Animagus Transfiguration Success Rate +30%

Xi Lun's eyes lit up as he looked at the results of his busy night's work.

There are thousands of wands in Ollivander's Wand Shop, but Siren has only seen this one, and only this one, that can directly increase the success rate of Animagus.

His grandfather couldn't make one, and even his great-grandmother, who had used kelp hair, had never made an Animagus wand.

I don’t know if Xi Lun existed before, but it was definitely not among the 377 wands left in the wand shop, otherwise Xi Lun would definitely have remembered it.

After all, Animagus is the ceiling of living transfiguration and has a very loud reputation. If Xi Lun had seen it, he would definitely remember it.

And directly adding a 30% success rate is unheard of.

This bonus is already quite a bit, after all, most new wands only have a positive bonus of around 5% to 10%.

Professor McGonagall has been famous for many years, and the "Transfiguration Master" trait influenced by herself is also only 30%.

In addition, Animagus is not ordinary Transfiguration magic.

There are almost three thousand wizards in the UK, but there are only seven Animagus registered with the Ministry of Magic. Even if you include those who are not registered, there will definitely not be more than twenty people.

Directly strengthening the ultimate move, is this the value of the Master of Transfiguration?

The more Xi Lun looked at it, the more he liked it. With a wave of his hand, the feather pen on the table instantly turned into a shiny silver needle.

Xiren frowned.

How should I put it, it feels a bit awkward to use, which is something I have never experienced before.

But this is probably the disadvantage of using wizard hair as a wand core.

Xi Lun looked at another feature.

Transfiguration +10 (50)%
This is also the first time I see it, but it is not difficult to understand.

When other people including him, the creator, use it, it is 10% of the base, but if it is Professor McGonagall, it is 50%.

In other words, this wand can only realize its full potential in the hands of Professor McGonagall.

...It's her hair after all.

Xi Lun hesitated for a moment and decided to keep the wand for a while and not give it to Professor McGonagall for the time being.

After all, the characteristics related to the magic of "Animagus" are so rare, and he doesn't know if he can see a second one.

Although he is only in the first grade and his knowledge of Transfiguration is not perfect, it is impossible for him to learn Animagus even with the bonus, but he can learn it.

As a wand maker who is not good at fighting and is powerless, Animagus, a life-saving magic, is very important. It would be best if he could learn it before Voldemort is resurrected.

Before, Xi Lun actually didn’t have much confidence, after all, the living body transformation ceiling, but now with this magic wand, things are much simpler.

As long as you pay more attention to Transfiguration, it is really possible to learn this magic before Voldemort's resurrection, or even this year...

Ah, I'm overthinking it.

Xi Lun slapped his face, trying to wake himself up from his sweet dream.

Becoming an Animagus isn't just about chanting a spell; basic Transfiguration skills are an essential prerequisite.

This is the same as if you want to win the Quidditch World Championship, you must at least know the rules and learn to ride a broom.

These are not things you can learn in the first grade.

Not to mention that Xi Lun has other things to do and it is impossible for him to focus all his attention on Transfiguration.

As for Professor McGonagall... he just happened to have one hair left, so at worst, he could just make another one. She was already proficient in Animagus anyway, so she didn't need a wand to help her.

Having made the decision, Xi Lun stood up, rubbed his forehead to make himself more awake, and then left the dormitory.

The common room was quite lively.

Fred and George, as always, were promoting their prank products and their wide variety of quick-acting skipping candies.

Little wizards like Xilun, who look sleepy and obviously haven't had enough rest, are their main targets.

"Come and try some exploding candies." Fred came over with a box containing a dozen brown toffees.

"It works in a second and is guaranteed to get you out of a boring classroom anytime."

"Go back to the dormitory."

"Have a good sleep."

"Or anywhere you want to go."

The two of them sang in unison to promote their products.

"Thank you, but no thanks." Siren shook his head and refused. "Our first class is History of Magic."

"Well, then you really can't use it." Fred put away the candy in a sullen manner.

Professor Binns, who teaches History of Magic, is a ghost. He taught at Hogwarts for many years. Later, he fell asleep in front of the fireplace in the staff lounge. When he went to class the next day, he forgot to bring his body with him and died.

But he did not stop his teaching career. He became the only ghost professor at Hogwarts and continued to teach students the History of Magic course.

I have to say that the directors of Hogwarts are really not human. They even exploit ghosts.

No need to rest, no need to eat, no need for salary... If Hogwarts had a professor evaluation, Professor Binns would definitely be ranked first forever.

However, due to the limitations of the ghost itself, the quality of this professor's courses was not very good. After losing his body and brain, his courses became just rote memorization, and he never cared about what was happening in the classroom.

Students can sleep, chat, or play wizard chess, as long as they don't make too much noise.

Therefore, History of Magic is also the course with the lowest absenteeism rate.

There is so much freedom in class that there is really no need to skip classes. It would be a shame if you were caught by other professors.

For someone like Xi Lun who wants to catch up on sleep, History of Magic is the best choice.

"I want to go to the auditorium for breakfast. Is it still in time?" Xi Lun asked casually.

"If you're not afraid of being late, you'll be in time," Fred said. "By the way, you didn't go to the auditorium this morning, so you just missed the most exciting scene."

"What?" Xi Lun glanced at the time.

Class started in ten minutes, and going to breakfast now would definitely make him late unless he could make sure every staircase was in the correct position.

But it's unlikely, as those stairs like to target freshmen.

"Nimbus 2000!" George said excitedly. "Can you believe it? Someone gave Harry Potter the latest model of broom."

"And Wood told us he would be Gryffindor's new Seeker."

"Professor McGonagall said he was the most talented Seeker."

"This is the most promising year for Gryffindor. We will definitely win the Quidditch Cup."

Looking at the twins who suddenly got angry, Xi Lun silently took a step back and decisively decided to go to the classroom first.

I really don't understand these ball players. What's so exciting about riding a piece of wood? That thing should have a core to make it interesting. It would be better if the rules could be changed so that magic can be used in the sky.
