Hogwarts: From Luna's House to Godhood Through Intense Competition

The caster needs to use a wand to guide existing weather phenomena, then reshape them to ultimately change the weather.

Just like Professor McGonagall's Weather Charm, because there are relatively few clouds around, no matter how much you try to guide them, you can't gather enough clouds.

At this point, we need to change our approach and, like Professor Flitwick, guide the water from the Black Lake into the air to form a new cloud.

It was only after learning the principles of the Weather Charm that Vizette understood what Dumbledore meant by "cannot be applied to the Animagus".

If there is a lack of weather conditions associated with lightning, one may encounter a situation similar to Professor McGonagall's, where it is difficult to gather enough lightning to trigger a storm.

However, the lightning that wizards can unleash differs significantly from the lightning contained in the weather.

Therefore, it is impossible to use Professor Flitwick's method of introducing enough lightning from the outside to trigger the birth of a storm.

Professor Flitwick's teaching skills were undoubtedly superb. Taking advantage of the good weather, he started with the relatively simple Clear Sky Charm, guiding Vizet into the magical realm of weather charms...

After several rounds of study, Vizette mastered the Clear Sky Spell.

The incantation for the Clear Sky Spell is "Clear Sky Like a Washed Sky." When casting the spell, you need to continuously push outwards to remove excess weather, and then you can complete the magic.

It could also be expanded; using those gaps, Vizet successfully cast the Clear Sky Spell, bringing real sunlight into the crypt.

The happiest person when sunlight shines into the entrance hall is Luna, who can decorate the hall with potted plants to make it more vibrant.

……

On the weekend, after finishing his morning Quidditch training, Wizette took a short break in the porch.

The mandrake plant that he had personally cultivated was moved to the entrance hall as it gained real sunlight.

Mandrake is a relatively dangerous magical plant, so moving it to the corridor would give him some peace of mind.

As was his usual practice, he arrived ten minutes early outside Professor Snape's office.

This time, a familiar magical artifact appeared in the office—the Pensieve, which had once appeared in the principal's office.

The appearance of the Pensieve excited him slightly.

There is less than a week left until the second full moon.

Following the method used for making magical items, Vizette inscribed a lot of magic into the mandrake leaf she held.

It not only contains basic spells such as levitation, cutting, and fire-starting, but also recently mastered weather magic, such as clear sky and drizzle spells.

To satisfy Vizzet's curiosity and imagination, Professor Flitwick recently planned a private lesson to introduce him to the Lightning Summoning Charm, a weather charm that can summon lightning.

Snape asked coldly, "Did you say anything about the Animagus in front of Dumbledore and the others?"

“Yes, Professor Snape!” Vezel nodded and quickly found the relevant notes.

This was a rewrite he made specifically for preparing his paper, "Transfiguration Today," and it was only completed in the last two days.

Vizette used the copying charm she had learned from the Book of Spells to create a copy of the notes. "Professor Snape, this is about the leaves of young mandrakes."

“I’m going to be direct too…” Snape pursed his lips and pointed to the Pensieve, “Anyway, you know what I mean.”

“Okay.” Vizette nodded, placed the copied notes on his desk, then took out his wand, pressed it to his temple, and cast the memory extraction spell.

……

In the headmaster's office, Dumbledore had a wide smile on his face.

He finished approving another document, put down his quill, stretched, and said to the even more weathered phoenix Fox, "Severus is truly composed!"

"It took him almost a month to ask me for the Pensieve... Fox, do you think he was simply curious about the mandrake leaves, or did he have some other motive?"

Phoenix Fox's voice became much more drawn out, uttering two deep, drawn-out moans.

“I also think there are other ideas.” Dumbledore stroked his beard, grabbed a swarm of cockroaches, and then pinched a peppermint licorice candy.

After swallowing both kinds of candy together, he couldn't help but shiver and exhale a large puff of white mist.

"A full moon won't bring him any good memories. But if we think about this full moon, perhaps it's a good start, isn't it?"

Phoenix Fox nodded slightly, and another feather fell, turning to ash in mid-air...

-------------------------------------

Thankfully, the weather has been clear lately, so the Scottish Highlands were not shrouded in clouds at night.

The round moon hangs high in the sky, like a bright pearl inlaid in the night sky.

If the second full moon falls on a cloudy day, then you need to go back to step one and start over.

In fact, to ensure there would be no clouds tonight, not only was Hagrid on guard around the hunting grounds, but Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick were also present.

What surprised Hagrid the most was that Snape also appeared on the outskirts of the hunting grounds.

Seemingly noticing Hagrid's surprised gaze, Snape's expression darkened further, and he lifted his robes to move to another spot.

Vizette thanked the professors and Hagrid in turn, and took out the mandrake leaf.

The mandrake leaves, now exposed to moonlight again, have undergone significant changes; even their texture seems to have altered.

At this time, the leaves of the mandrake resemble thin emeralds, with a translucent luster and faintly visible points of light dancing on them.

“It is indeed unique,” ​​Professor McGonagall was the first to judge. “My leaf at the time was just greener…it certainly wouldn’t be as beautiful as this one!”

Chapter 131 Hagrid the Leaky

Compared to the traditional Animagus, the Animagus procedure that Wizette is currently performing is more explicit and profound in terms of the meaning and function of each step.

This is no longer a ritualistic magic that follows past experience, but a structured magical experiment.

Both Flitwick and McGonagall wanted to witness all of this, record the entire process, and make ample preparations for their subsequent papers.

Of course, the groundbreaking nature of this experiment also means that it is not only dangerous, but also has unpredictable uncertainties.

The arrival of Dumbledore and Snape was intended to minimize this uncertainty as much as possible.

Snape stepped forward, took out his wand, pointed it at the mandrake leaf, and waved it gently.

Flitwick craned his neck and stood on tiptoe, his face showing a hint of seriousness.

McGonagall had a similar solemn expression, adjusted her glasses, and rested her fingers on the frame.

Snape used his magic to detect the medicinal properties of the mandrake leaf.

Emerald light shimmered across the leaves, verifying whether the desired effect had been achieved and whether any potential problems existed.

"Interesting, continue." Snape left those two words behind and departed the hunting grounds without lingering.

After hearing this, McGonagall's expression returned to normal, and she lowered her hand from her glasses.

Flitwick landed on his feet, twisted his neck slightly, and his beard twitched merrily twice.

Watching Vizette bury the bottle in the ground, the professors left together.

“Albus, this is a good location,” Professor McGonagall praised. “Hagrid can also help keep an eye on things, so it won’t be so easily affected.”

"Really? It's quite a large area, a really nice place!" Dumbledore stroked his beard.

"Now we just have to wait for the storm. I wonder... how well Vizet has mastered the weather spell?"

Flitwick said calmly, "Vizet has great talent. He has already mastered the Clear Sky Charm and the Drizzle Charm, but their range is not very large."

"It just means he needs to practice more to get used to the feeling of casting spells. I'm not worried about that at all. Vizette is so self-disciplined that sometimes I feel tired for him."

McGonagall and Dumbledore nodded in strong agreement.

……

Hagrid watched Dumbledore and the others leave, then leaned close to Vizet and said, "So you're also planning to learn from the Animagus?"

Hearing this, Vizette asked curiously, "...someone else planted potions here before? Was it also an Animagus technique?"

"Oh! The running Gorgons!" Hagrid shouted, shaking his head, and reached out to cover his mouth.

His eyes gleamed like black beetles for a moment, then he lowered his hands with a hint of helplessness, stirring up a gentle breeze.

Hagrid crouched down next to Vizzet and purred softly, "It's okay to tell you, but you can't tell Harry and the others."

“Of course!” Vizete nodded.

Actually, he was more worried about Hagrid letting something slip than about himself.

This kind of thing actually happened several times last school year.

Harry had spoken to Wizette about the Philosopher's Stone several times, at least.

Harry and his friends were so certain because their information came from Hagrid, and they trusted Hagrid completely.

Hagrid is indeed a trustworthy person, but he's not very discreet.

The key point is that he didn't intentionally reveal the secret; it just slipped out unintentionally.

This situation might be related to Hagrid's personality; he's outspoken and can't keep secrets...

……

As Vizette walked up the moving staircase, she said, "Hagrid, can you tell me the whole story? That way I can better avoid it."

“I wish I were as perceptive as you,” Hagrid sighed. “It’s nothing really… it’s just that the place we’re going to is actually James’s secret warehouse.”

“Oh! You probably don’t know James, do you? He’s Harry’s father…a very good wizard, and a really nice guy…Lily too, she’s Harry’s mother.”

Vizette was somewhat surprised. "Since it's Harry's father's secret, why can't we tell Harry?"
