Chapter 59 Because I Like Gryffindor

  The tone of Basda Bagshot's letter was very polite.

  She only said that she liked the theorem proposed by Damon very much and hoped to have some exchanges with him.

  In the letter, she made a suggestion. She felt that although Damon's theorem had been successfully verified, it lacked a more systematic explanation.

  For example, since White's theorem had completed the change of the inner nature, it actually broke not only Gamp's second law, but also Gamp's first and third laws, which were actually no longer tenable.

  She proposed that she hoped to help Damon sort out White's theorem and study more extended theorems like Gamp's law of transformation.

  Correspondingly, she hoped that Damon could answer some of her questions about White's theorem.

  For example, microscopic, such as [Microscopic Spells] and [Magical Order] that were kept secret after being told by Dumbledore.

  To be honest, Damon really didn't mind sharing these two spells, but he was a little wary of Basak.

  Grindelwald imprisoned himself in Nurmengard and never took a step out until his death. It didn't matter if she exchanged Transfiguration with Basak. If she wrote to Grindelwald, it would be troublesome. If the first generation of Dark Lord had any interest in it, it might be a bit troublesome.

  Although Damon was not afraid of trouble, he didn't want to get into some unnecessary trouble.

  However, Basak had a very good attitude and high knowledge. As early as when Dumbledore was still a student, he exchanged Transfiguration with him as a pen pal. It was a great benefit for Damon to establish a long-term relationship with her.

  Thinking of this, he did not refuse the old man's request, and directly wrote to her the principles and spells of microscopic spells and magical order, and also proposed a problem that he thought needed to be solved most at present.

  Changing the nature of the transformed object is just like what Dumbledore said. Although it is a cross-century discovery, it is not a terrible thing.

  The biggest disadvantage of this kind of transformation is the excessive demand for magic power.

  And this demand extends to countless problems.

  For example, he wanted to transform a Norwegian Ridgeback at this moment. Whether it was transformed with sand, stone, or gold, the difficulty and magic would be different. If the object to be transformed was replaced with something else, the difficulty and magic would change again.

  The verification process required a lot of time to record the experiment, which was meaningless to Damon. For

  him, it would be better to spend time on improving the original Transfiguration - when the Transfiguration that did not involve the essence conversion came to an end, he would consider continuing to improve this path.

  At present - for a pragmatist like him, it would be enough to find a few essence transformations that were powerful and suitable for combat.

  For example, the most common sand, soil, stone bricks, how to better and faster transform them into steel is the direction he is going to train and master next.

  He proposed this theorem, and he did not have any idea of changing the world. He simply wanted to get back the points of the College Cup, accumulate fame, and find some colleagues to communicate with - such as Bashak, a Transfiguration expert who has been deeply involved in the field of Transfiguration for hundreds of years.

  Now, it can be said that he has achieved his goal.

  In addition to Bagshot, there were also letters from some elite Aurors, employees in important positions in the Ministry of Magic, and members of the Wizengamot.

  Damon responded to them one by one in a friendly manner, but he did not tell them the two most fundamental spells he designed - Damon did not expect these people to do anything. In the entire Ministry of Magic, there were few people with straight butts. Most of them were centrists. There was no point in trying to please them.

  After doing all this, he waved his wand, and these envelopes transformed into birds and flew out of the window, flying towards Chacha Barton who was resting in the Owl Shed.

  After dealing with these, he found that Harry and Ron were staring at him without saying a word. He smiled and asked:

  "What's wrong?"

  "Damon - I heard that you didn't go to Slytherin because Malfoy said you were a mudblood?"

  "Then if the people in Slytherin apologized to you, wanted to re-sort you, and welcomed you very warmly, would you want to go to Slytherin?"

  At this point, the expressions of the two became nervous, and Hermione, who was doing her homework with her head down, pricked up her ears quietly.   

  "Of course not. In fact, that was just an excuse to cause trouble for Malfoy. I lied to them."

  Damon looked at them and said gently:

  "I like my days in Gryffindor. I don't think I will be more comfortable in Slytherin than here."

  In fact, Damon looked down on Slytherin from beginning to end.

  The reason is simple. In the final battle with Voldemort, students from the other three colleges participated in the final battle to a greater or lesser extent, but all the students of Slytherin left.

  Even if they are really smarter and better than other wizards, so what? They

  are just a group of sophisticated egoists. Even

  if he is the most evil villain in the world, he will like kind and decent people instead of guys who are as bad as himself.

  Damon accepts Slytherin's way of survival, but he will never recognize them.

  Just like Mandela said: We can be humble as dust, but we cannot be twisted like maggots.

  If he was just a Muggle student with mediocre talent, maybe he would join Hufflepuff, learn magic every day, eat, drink and have fun, be a nobody in normal times, avoid all dangers, just to protect himself in the crisis, and then give Dumbledore more tips and change some things at the most critical moment.

  But with the system, it is foreseeable that he will be stronger than anyone else one day. Even now, his strength is enough to compete with veteran wizards like Quirrell, so why does he still indulge those people?

  Being servile is something you do when you don't have enough strength and power.

  His fists are bigger than anyone else's, so why does he need to engage in intrigue and care about other people's opinions?

  Not only those people, he doesn't tolerate anything that makes him unhappy, he wants to change them all!

  Otherwise, wouldn't he have come to this world in vain?

  "Really? You're not going to Slytherin at all?"

  Ron's expression became surprised.

  "Yes, not to mention that the result of the sorting is absolute, even if there is another sorting, I will choose Gryffindor."

  Hearing Damon's personal assurance, they were relieved and didn't care about studying. They ran back to the common room happily and told the other little lions the news.

  "Although I think you are more like a Slytherin, Gryffindor welcomes you."

  Hermione, who was left alone, whispered to Damon.

  "You are half Ravenclaw, and you can tell me this?"

  Damon smiled and stood up, and messed up Hermione's hair more amidst her protest of "What do you mean!"

  "Well, this is more like our Gryffindor lion."

  He examined his masterpiece with a smile.

  The girl became more and more dissatisfied, but the voice of the librarian Madam Pince sounded at this time, "Please keep quiet in the library!"

  She temporarily suppressed the words that were about to pour out in her throat.

  At the right time, a breeze suddenly blew, blowing the window swings, and the sunlight sprinkled golden threads, shining on the faces of the boys and girls.

  Outside the window, the grass was bearing its seeds, and the wind was shaking its leaves.

  The two sat face to face, not saying a word, quietly doing their own things.
