The reporters' questions were urgent and rapid, and they covered a wide range of topics.
Levin answered all the questions in a calm and measured tone, maintaining a smile throughout.
Such demeanor and temperament won the favor of the reporters present.
"What are your thoughts on your experience registering as an Animagus with the Office for the Prevention of Abuse of Magic?"
Finally, Levin heard the crucial question.
He perked up and answered the question directly.
“I’m curious whether they treat other testers as rudely as they treat me. If so, then I might understand why there are so few registered Animagus people and so many illegal Animagus people.”
Levin wore a faint smile, yet the words he spoke were sharp and cutting.
The reporters below immediately became excited; their professional instincts told them that the second big news of the day was about to begin.
"What happened? Can you tell me more about it?"
"You believe that the quality of Ministry of Magic officials needs improvement, don't you?"
Was anyone targeting you during today's test?
"It's a good thing that the Ministry of Magic's vetting process is stricter, but couldn't the test takers be a little more cooperative? The Ministry of Magic is supposed to be an organization that serves ordinary wizards, not..."
In front of the reporters, Levin used his psychic abilities to fully unleash his charm, constantly guiding the reporters' sympathy for him and their dissatisfaction with the Ministry of Magic.
His remarks aroused great interest among the reporters present, who were all excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline, and indignant at Levin's plight.
Especially Rita Skeeter,
Levin could see her green quill pen frantically scribbling something across the notebook.
Levin knew without even looking that she had exaggerated extensively.

This time, however, her exaggeration worked for her.
To win over the reporters, Levin then showcased his Animagus form.
The chimera, which combined the symbols of the four houses, drew unanimous amazement from everyone. Reporters felt that this meant Levin was a symbol of the fine qualities of Hogwarts.
Since Levin is a symbol of fine qualities,
The nature of the person standing on the opposite side is self-evident.
Levin returned to Hogwarts on the same day that registration closed.
Apart from Cirella, Hermione, and the other three girls, as well as Levin's headmaster, Professor Flitwick, no one knew that Levin had quietly become the eighth publicly registered Animagus in the Netherworld this century.
It wasn't until the next morning, when the owls flapped their wings and brought various newspapers to the Great Hall, that the young wizards learned of this astonishing news.
Although the young wizards were already numb to Levin's amazing achievements, they still couldn't help but peek out and whisper among themselves.
Because Levin has once again achieved something worthy of being recorded in the history of magic.
Since enrolling in school, Levin has accumulated countless glorious achievements, such as being first in his grade, slaying the Chimera, defeating the Basilisk, and rescuing Sirius Black, among others.
These stories have been discussed repeatedly by everyone.

Now, he is the only wizard in the world who can transform into a chimera.
Levin had anticipated this situation, and he calmly went to his seat and enjoyed his breakfast.
Zhang Qiu sat beside him, proudly reading aloud every report that mentioned him.
Sure enough, almost every newspaper headline featured Levin Green transformed into a chimera, along with photos of him answering reporters' questions.
Reports about him being the first wizard to have magical creatures named Animagus were everywhere, dominating headlines.
Many newspapers went to great lengths to praise him, describing him as the symbol of all Hogwarts virtues and a role model for all young wizards.
Upon reading this, not only Cho Chang, but all the young wizards who had joined the Society of Learned Wizards puffed out their chests with pride, believing that Levin truly deserved his reputation.
Levin didn't pay much attention to these things.
His attention was entirely focused on the director of the Office for the Prohibition of the Abuse of Magic's comments on the Animagus registrant's rudeness.
Almost every newspaper reported on it, but the Daily Prophet was the most eloquent and the most scathing in its criticism of the Ministry of Magic.
Is the Ministry of Magic's harassment of the genius Animagus a systemic flaw or a case of personal retaliation?
Levin Grimm, a one-of-a-kind genius wizard renowned for his Animagus form, faces obstacles and coldness during his registration with the Ministry of Magic…
An official familiar with the matter at the scene revealed, "The criteria used to judge Levin Green seemed to go beyond the norm, and the testers' attitude towards him was unusually serious and indifferent..."
This incident reminds us of past miscarriages of justice—the tragedy of Sirius Black. Peter Pettigrew was able to hide in a wizarding family for years because he was an illegal Animagus; similarly, Sirius Black, though wrongfully imprisoned, successfully escaped the heavily guarded Azkaban through Animagus transformation.
The person in charge of handling the Sirius Black case at the time was Barty Crouch.
Levin Green played a key role in the Sirius Black case, successfully overturning his conviction.
An official revealed that "Mafalda Hopkirk, who was in charge of testing Levin, was personally promoted by Barty Crouch."
We can't help but wonder if Buddy Crouch instructed his men to take such action as retaliation against Levin Green for exposing his misconduct.
This incident once again proves that the Ministry of Magic must pay attention to the management of Animagus, improve service attitude, enhance the quality of officials, and adjust work style.
We will continue to monitor developments in this matter and look forward to the Ministry of Magic's response.
Chief correspondent Rita Skeeter reports from Turkey
Chapter 254 Jaina's Victory
After this wave of media coverage, Levin could feel his reputation rising at a visible rate.
One piece of evidence is the love letters received.
Although he had received a large number of love letters from both men and women in the past.
But after this incident, the number of love letters he received increased by an order of magnitude.
At the same time, he also receives many invitations from journals of magic zoology and metamorphology.
Even Professor McGonagall approached Levin, commissioning him as a guest editor of "Transfiguration Today" to write an article about the principles of the magical Animagus.
Levin readily agreed.
He didn't want to miss the opportunity to make a name for himself in academia.
As for the possibility of teaching others...
Please, in modern society, it's not uncommon for papers and patents to be published openly and transparently, yet others simply cannot imitate them.
Levin could have simply described the general principles, but retained the key processes and data.
Moreover, in designing this set of magical Animagus transformation methods, Levin included many steps that could only be completed by learning the corresponding arcane magic.
Even if those wizards who read the article are incredibly powerful, can they really learn arcane magic out of thin air?
They lacked extraordinary comprehension.
Another consequence of Levin's growing fame was a sharp increase in the number of young wizards applying to join the Erudite Society.
This organization, which Levin single-handedly built, is already the most attractive student society in all of Hogwarts, even more so than Professor Slughorn's Slug Club in the original story.
The young wizards all believed that only the most outstanding wizards were worthy of being members of the Academy of Knowledge.
Even Percy Weasley and Draco Malfoy, who were about to graduate, privately expressed their desire to join Levin.
From Percy Weasley's feigned flattery, Levin realized that he was probably aware of his relationship with Jaina and hoped to get help in his future work at the Ministry of Magic.
As for Draco Malfoy, his application made Levin marvel at the Malfoy family's innate opportunism.
Of course, it's also possible that he approached her at his father's behest.
Levin naturally wouldn't refuse their request, and it didn't have any negative impact on him.
More importantly, apart from Ron, the Weasleys were generally very friendly to Levin.
Mrs. Weasley was always very welcoming to him.
Arthur Weasley shares his passion for modifying Muggle technology.
The Weasley twins were among his beneficiaries.
Ginny is his biggest fangirl, blindly supporting everything he does, and now she works for Hermione's Erudite Institute's personnel department.
Although Levin's intelligence increased significantly, the progress of the Book of Laws accelerated greatly, and the second-circle spells were entered in less than a week.
But as the spell levels recorded in the Book of All Laws continued to rise, he spent more and more time writing the book.
As a result, he had less and less free time, and the organization and activities of the Erudite Society had to be completely handed over to the girls.
Now, in addition to completing their own revision tasks, Cerella and Penelope also have to plan activities for the Knowledge Society.
Hermione, however, didn't have much free time due to having too many elective courses.
Zhang Qiu had plenty of time, but her magical abilities were not yet sufficient to support her learning the course.
As for Luna, she preferred to stay in the lounge with Aiwu, clearly sharing Levin's aversion to trouble.
Meanwhile, the Erudite Society faced enormous problems due to Levin's soaring reputation, making organizing events an extremely arduous task. Simply processing the application forms for the training camp was enough to cause a headache.
Left with no other option, Levin had to privately arrange meetings with the girls to coordinate their employment issues.
The meeting was naturally scheduled to take place in the tower.
After the meeting, Levin hurriedly returned to his workspace to continue his important work.
Luna immediately grabbed Aiwu and ran away.
Cirella, Penelope, Hermione, and Cho were left behind, planning to chat for a while before leaving separately.
Hermione studied Penelope's expression and suddenly made a suggestion to her.
“Penelo, you’re about to face NEWTs: Exams, which will determine your future. I suggest you focus entirely on your studies; it’s the wisest choice.” Hermione held a stack of application forms, her eyes filled with concern as she looked at the somewhat tired Penelo.
This sounded like genuine concern, but Penelope immediately became wary.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, making it impossible to see into her heart.
This job is suitable for both of us, as well as for Levin.
Hermione's eyes were fixed firmly on Penelope.
