My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 23.023. Transfiguration and Herbs

My first day at Hogwarts was busy and fulfilling.

As dusk approached, Lynn successfully completed the assignments given by her professors for the three courses that day in the library.

During his time there, he also met Cedric, who kindly helped him understand the grading criteria for student assignments from various professors, and how to effectively select books from the library to assist him.

Lynn even found a familiar feeling in this kind of life, the same feeling she had in high school in her previous life.

In reality, normal young wizards are not nearly as busy as he is. Most of them leave their weekly homework until the last minute and use their free time to play wizard chess, play around in the castle corridors, or play adventure games in the castle.

Finally, I remembered my assignment when the weekend was approaching, and then I hurriedly borrowed someone else's completed assignment to copy, or I just wrote it quickly and carelessly, betting that the professor wouldn't bother me for it.

Unfortunately, these young wizards were not very lucky at gambling, and they often lost nine out of ten times.

Lynn, after all, has the soul of an adult. It would be asking too much of him to play carefree and happily with a bunch of unruly kids.

After having lunch in the Great Hall, Lynn returned to the Slytherin Common Room.

In the dormitory, the other three people besides him seemed to get along quite well.

The other two boys, named Mark Oliva and Michel Camilleri, were playing Wizard's Chess, while Hubert seemed to be loudly instructing the weaker side on their next move.

When Lynn entered, their previously joyful atmosphere vanished as if a cat had suddenly appeared at a mouse gathering.

Hubert's gaze toward Lynn remained evasive, and the two boys playing Wizard's Chess also seemed quite uncomfortable, losing their ability to predict the next move of the pieces, prompting a group of pieces on the board to urge them on.

Lynn narrowed his eyes. His mind was racing. Seeing the scene in his dormitory as soon as he returned, his ten years of experience living in a dormitory in his previous life told him that not long before he returned, Hubert and the other two had been talking badly about him behind his back.

Moreover, it was clear that he had been ostracized by his three roommates.

It's not surprising that they were able to form a friendship so quickly and share a common hatred for each other.

First of all, Lynn and them were not the same kind of people. Apart from him, more than half of the freshmen in this class came from pure-blood wizard families, and the rest were half-bloods whose parents were wizards at least one of them. Their camp was naturally opposed to Lynn's.

In addition, after yesterday's conflict, regardless of how it was initially triggered, Hubert ended up as the weaker party, which easily evoked sympathy from onlookers.

Moreover, Lynn had almost no contact with them at all today, but Hubert spent the whole day with them.

Therefore, all of this is perfectly logical.

However, Lynn didn't care at all; this situation was exactly what he wanted.

He never wanted to have anything to do with these unruly kids in the first place, and it would be better for everyone to keep their distance from them in the future.

Of course, he wasn't naive enough to think that Hubert would be convinced after last night's lesson and would never cause him trouble again. Judging from Lynn's experience of two lifetimes, he would need to go through at least two more lessons similar to yesterday before he would truly behave himself.

Life at Hogwarts is very relaxed, and Lynn has plenty of time to train him.

"Good evening."

Lynn smiled and greeted his roommates, who were gradually drifting apart from him, in a friendly manner.

The three of them stared at him nervously, their lips moving, but no sound came out.

Lynn didn't expect any response from them. She leisurely put her things away and then sat down at her desk to flip through her Transfiguration textbook.

Isolation is something that only you yourself don't feel awkward and uncomfortable about; the one who suffers the most from isolation is the isolated person.

Lynn is playing the role of a troublemaker who makes Hubert and his group uncomfortable.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Lynn arrived at the Transformation classroom early. The moment he stepped into the classroom, his body suddenly stiffened.

"Mc, Mc, Professor McGonagall." Looking at the tabby cat sitting upright on the podium, Lynn suddenly recalled that embarrassing scene from the past, and his words became stuttering.

Professor McGonagall nodded slightly, looking at him without saying a word.

Lynn immediately understood what she meant, obediently found a seat in the classroom, and quietly waited for class to begin.

Clearly, Professor McGonagall was going to give the new students a big surprise.

This class was a joint session between Slytherin and Hufflepuff. After yesterday's experience, no one dared to be late, and all the young wizards arrived at the classroom on time before class.

The cat on the podium attracted a lot of attention, but since there was also a Mrs. Norris at Hogwarts, no one seemed surprised.

Until the cat suddenly transformed into Professor McGonagall, almost all the young wizards who witnessed this scene gasped in surprise.

Just as Cedric had said that morning, Professor McGonagall taught the same lesson to freshmen every year.

Turn a match into a needle.

Lynn's talent for Transfiguration wasn't much higher than other young wizards. His initial value was only 2, and after a reward point from the system, he now had 3 points. His efficiency in learning Transfiguration wasn't very high.

But if you lack talent, you can make up for it with hard work. As long as you're not a complete dud, you can definitely learn basic Transfiguration by practicing a few more times.

Moreover, Lynn's talent is slightly higher than that of ordinary people.

Unsurprisingly, he once again earned five points for Slytherin with his outstanding performance in this class, thus acquiring all two talent points for Transfiguration.

The same applies to the herbal medicine class in the afternoon.

Professor Sprout, the headmaster of Hufflepuff, led the young wizards to the greenhouse behind the castle and taught them to identify the first magical plant: Dittany.

This kind of knowledge can be acquired simply by reading and memorizing more. Lynn received a high praise from Professor Sprout for saying that in addition to its medicinal uses, white peony was also used by some wand makers as the core of their wands, and Slytherin also received five points.

Having only been at Hogwarts for two days, Lynn's stats received a significant boost:

Name: Lynn Bellock

[Title: Despicable kidnapper, freshman in school.]

[Magic Index: 3]

[Free points: 1]

Magical Talent:

黑魔法6

Transfiguration 4

Universal Spell 4

Herbalism 4

Attack and defense spells 3

Potions 3

Alchemy 2

Ancient Runes 2

Divination 0

...]

Main Quest: Receive a commendation from the professor of the corresponding course.

[Reward: +1 to the corresponding magical talent and effect.]

Basically, the talent level of mainstream magic has reached 4, and the highest level of black magic even has 6 points.

Although he has not learned any dark magic yet, he doesn't know what a talent value of 6 points represents.

But this morning, while practicing spells with Cedric, Lynn had already noticed the benefits of having 4 points in general spells. He could imitate the spell's pronunciation and wand-waving motion perfectly after watching Cedric demonstrate it only three times. On his fifth attempt, he successfully cast this magic that he had never encountered before.

Even Cedric couldn't help but marvel at how fast Lynn was learning spells, almost as fast as he was.
