As students arrived one by one, no one saw the professor. No one knew the Animagus is McGonagall among the first years. As for Adrian, he is busy collection by data about Animagus from his magisight. His shining eyes made McGonagall in her Animagus form quite uncomfortable.
Adrian saw something that made him astonished in Animagus, a beast soul with some intelligence and will. Yet it's existence level itself is born in the magic and soul of the animagi. It's strength is very weak to take over the real owner of the body. That's why it existed in the soul. It's also not growing like seprate soul does. Instead it seems like a part of the soul itself.
Adrian's astonishment ended when the saviour and his follower Ron barged into the classroom. Ron said," we made it. Can you imagine the look on old McGonagall's face if we're late? ", not soon after he spoke, McGonagall the cat jumped from the desk, and transformed into her human form in mid air.
Adrian is again astonished how fast the beast soul McGonagall retreatdd and became a part of original soul again. Looks like Animagus isn't just physical but also astral in change. There is also a heartbeat in the transparent form of the beast soul.
McGonagall gave a stern warning to Harry and Ron by threatening them to turn one of the two into a pocket watch or a map. After that she started the class," Transfiguration is one of most dangerous branches of magic. You'll learn many things in transfiguration class. For example - ".
She tapped the desk with her wand and it changed into a pig before turning into a cat, then a bird, and then turned back into desk. She then gave a stern warning again," now you have to be very careful while doing transfiguration. And anyone who is seeing playing around or doing naughty things in my class will be thrown out and won't be allowed throughout the entire semester ".
Then she took out the textbook and started teaching them about the laws of transfiguration. A basic formula for transfiguring inanimate objects into other objects. She spoke for almost half an hour explaining the complex work behind transfiguration and the principles along with it's dangers before giving everyone a match. She then encouraged them to try.
Every student is trying their best but Adrian looked bored. McGonagall gave him a stern gaze before trotting towards him and asked," why are you not trying Mr Wells? Is there something you didn't understand? ", she has doubts if he really is descendant of Twilight Wizard.
She thinks everyone is giving him over attention. Sure the ancestors may have been powerful but the present is what matters most. Just because you have a special bloodline won't make you anything special.
Adrian didn't even pick up his wand. In his habit, he pointed his finger to the match and it transformed into a fine silver needle and he had done it without a wand. For the first time McGonagall believed that bloodline may have some impact. McGonagall stood there for a few seconds in silence before announcing," excellent transfiguration, Mr wells. 2 points to Slytherin. Since you can already do it, you can either help your classmates do it or you can study the next chapters in advance. You have my permission ".
This is the first time McGonagall doubted her eyes. In her career such a feat is rare, a student in his first class able to transfigured a match into a silver needle in his first attempt and he did it without a wand. Adrian opened his book and started studying. As for instructing, he find it quite boring.
Cassandra frustrated that her match isn't completely transfigured bit the bullet and finally asked," How did you do that? ", Daphne also asked," yes, can you tell how you're able to do this? Please, can you show us ".
Adrian looked back and forth between the two girls and then grabbed Daphne's hand while the girl looked quite flustered he held her other hand told her to calm down. Daphne closed her eyes and tooka deep breath before Adrian said," now concentrate on the match. Imagine the silver, you know the silver jewellery right? Imagine touching and feeling the silver. Then imagine you're drawing a silver needle in your mind. Move your magic while imagining it. No rush, just one step after another ".
From Daphne's wand a blue glow appeared and the match stick trembled slightly. First the match became silver gradually, then it started becoming thin. Then slowly it started transforming into slim and sharp needle. When Daphne opened her eyes, she is stunned to see the needle on her desk.
McGonagall gave her a point and told others to try harder. Adrian then held Cassandra's hand before whispering into her ear," first calm down. Then try to imagine silver, slowly mobilize your magic while recalling the feeling when you touched silver. Then imagine the needle. Now while thinking about a silver needle mobilize your magic. Don't rush, we have plenty of time to spare ".
Cassandra blushed when she felt Adrian's hand on her hand. She isn't able to concentrate and the needle disfigured. " No problem, you're getting the hang of it. Let's try another time. Remember my words, concentrate, imagine the shape of a needle. It's texture, it's surface, it's shape. Now start applying magic while thinking about it ".
A shining needle silver appeared. McGonagall nodded and gave Cassandra one point. But Cassandra didn't care, she is looking at Adrian, secretly taking glances at him. When he touched her, she felt a warm, soothing and cozy sensation.
Daphne Greengrass isn't much better too. She is blushing.
