Chapter 37: Survival



By the time they reached the second row, there was only one little witch left in front of Kyle.

And it is only one step away from the podium.

Kyle held the bag of dried fish tightly in his pocket. Although he was extremely nervous, he appeared to be calm on the surface.

But just when Kyle was about to take out the dried fish and unlock the achievement, he suddenly discovered that the little Ravenclaw witch in front of him seemed to have the same idea as him.

Because he was closer to the front, Kyle could even see a piece of green thing being taken out of her pocket little by little.

That is... a cat toy? ?

"It's over, someone intercepted us!"

Kyle's eyes went dark and his whole body went numb.

There is no need to think about it. Once the little witch takes out the cat toy, Professor Mewg will definitely turn back into Professor McGonagall.

The plan he had thought about for so long had completely failed!

"Damn it, I made you think so much, it would have been better to just go for it right from the start!"

Kyle pounded his legs in frustration, wishing he could use the time converter to go back five minutes and give himself a hard slap.

But now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying anything. Kyle could only sigh, move to the left, and sit in the first row.

It was as if he had always wanted to be here.

At the same time, the little witch that Kyle hated so much had come to the podium, and her hands were completely out of her pockets.

But at this moment, the tabby cat on the podium suddenly laughed, tapped the table with its hind legs, and in the blink of an eye it turned back into Professor McGonagall.

"Miss Leona, being compassionate is a good thing, but as a wizard, it is obviously more important to always maintain a keen insight."

Professor McGonagall appeared next to the freshman named Leona. While speaking, she patted her shoulder lightly and put her hand holding the cat toy back into her pocket.

"Mai, Mai, Mai...Professor G." The little witch was obviously very frightened and her voice began to tremble.

"It's me. If you look closely, you'll find that the patterns around the cat's eyes are exactly the same as the square glasses I wear." Professor McGonagall said calmly, "Now, could you please go back to your seat? We are about to start class."

There were no points deducted and no severe reprimand, because in Professor McGonagall's view, Leona's behavior was no more surprising than a freshman being late.

She had worked at Hogwarts for half her life, and the tradition of displaying Animagus in the first class had lasted for seven or eight years. During this period, she had seen too many new students like Leona.

Some people play with cats, some feed cats, some stroke cats...there are people doing all kinds of things.

Of course, Professor McGonagall never let them succeed.

Without some real skills, how could this tradition last so long? Did they really think that her title as a contemporary master of Transfiguration was bought with money? Not to mention that cats' reaction speed is much faster than that of wizards. If she could still fall into the hands of these freshmen, she would have no face to stay in Hogwarts and might as well resign.

After Leona was helped back by her Ravenclaw classmates, Professor McGonagall skillfully waved her wand and used a simple healing spell to help her calm down.

"Calm your mind and calm your nerves."

The spell was very effective. Leona stopped shaking immediately and her originally pale face became much rosier.

"I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall, I didn't know it was you."

Professor McGonagall turned around and went back to the podium, but when she passed the first row, she glanced at Kyle intentionally or unintentionally.

She had suspected that Kyle had the same idea as Leona, but she soon noticed that Kyle did not show that incredible look after she ended her Animagus transformation.

It seemed that Kyle had recognized her Animagus early on, and he probably just wanted to sit in the front row.

Sure enough, she shouldn't have believed Weasley's words. Kyle was indeed a smart and studious boy.

After returning to the podium, Professor McGonagall looked at the little wizards below and said seriously: "Transfiguration is the most complicated and dangerous magic you have learned in Hogwarts.

Anyone who dares to act up in my class will be asked to leave and never be allowed to come back. I have warned you."

As soon as Professor McGonagall opened her mouth, the whole place fell silent. At the same time, Kyle's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

I escaped a disaster, thanks to Leona. If it weren't for her, I would have been the one who died in public.

Kyle decided to talk to Qiu after class and tell her that he would pay for one regardless of whether Leona wanted to buy a map or not.

We can't let good people feel disappointed.

The joy of surviving the disaster made Kyle take notes more easily, and the boring Gamp's Basic Transformation Laws sounded a lot more pleasant.

However, unlike him, Kanna, who was also sitting in the first row, felt very uncomfortable at this moment.

Connor couldn't understand why she met Kyle even though she was sitting in the first row. Wasn't the freshman who came with him sitting in the last row? Could it be that they were just passing by? But that wasn't right. She clearly remembered that they were roommates. If she hadn't known this, she would never have sat in the first row.

But what is the situation now?

She sat in the front row, with Kyle next to her...worst and worse together?

Connor was so confused that she mechanically recorded Professor McGonagall's words and didn't even realize that she had already written in series.

On the podium, Professor McGonagall was still talking about the precautions of Transfiguration and did not notice that the two little wizards under her nose were not quite normal.

"Okay, that's all the basic Gamp Transfiguration Laws. Everyone must remember them. They are the foundation of Transfiguration."

On the podium, Professor McGonagall had finished saying everything that needed to be remembered. She looked at everyone and reminded them again:

"Remember, Transfiguration is a rigorous discipline. You must concentrate when waving your wand, like this..."

Professor McGonagall waved her wand and turned the podium into a pig.

It was no different from a normal pig. It could run and jump, and had all the necessary pork belly and tenderloin. When it noticed that everyone was looking at it, it howled in fear.

This move stunned the freshmen.

Especially for those freshmen who are exposed to magic for the first time, it is hard for them to imagine that such a real animal is just a table.

Everyone looked at Professor McGonagall, eager to start learning right away.
