Chapter 6
What kind of person is Harry Potter?
Professor McGonagall is definitely one of the most qualified people to answer this question, and it is fair to say that, except for a certain unnamed Potion professor, the other members of the Faculty have a good opinion of Harry.
He is sincere, polite, and has a sense of justice, but on the other hand, he is also “slightly” impulsive and reckless – which is not entirely a bad thing, and at least fits the profile of a young lion.
But these are all just character assessments if you look at his academic performance …
I can only say that we can’t go into more detail! If you want to go into detail, you can only say that he has a lot of potential! 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶
It’s exactly the same as what some teachers used to say at parent-teacher meetings in his previous life.
Finally, Professor McGonagall described Harry this way, “Harry is a very friendly little wizard and plays Quidditch very well.”
I asked you what subject he specialized in, and you tell me he’s friendly? Is there nothing else to brag about besides that?
But he’s good at Quidditch … and he seems to have a natural aptitude for athletics!
To be honest, Felix feels quite envious. Not for being a star figure on the Quidditch pitch, but in his opinion, a person with good athletic talent is at least have half a dueling talent.
What did dueling depend on? Spell power, spellcasting skill, mentality, experience, and reflexes.
He has all the first four attributes, but the last one, reflexes, is just average, although he is not that slow and not that fast either. But don’t think that Felix is weak. With his golden fingers, his spells are far more powerful than they should be.
As early as the end of the fourth year, he was able to stand toe-to-toe with three adult wizards and force his way through their defences.
Not to mention his current self.
If we take an unnamed potion professor as an example, Felix’s magic theory may be a little behind due to his age, but his spells are definitely more powerful than the others.
And this is all because he has spent his days and nights working on it!
He practiced the main attack spell 10,000 times, can you believe it? Take one of his most powerful attack spells, ” Petrificus Totalus “, as an example, this spell is the first spell he contacts with, and now he rates it as his top 6 spells, but he can’t break through to level 7 at present.
No matter what, it’s simply impossible for him to move on further due to his lack of magic knowledge.
But what does a level 6 spell mean? Just two years ago, with two-level 6 spells and a little skill, he took down seven of the most powerful wizards in the US wizardry side in a flash!
His unparalleled skillfulness and the sheer power of his spells are what Felix has to say about himself.
It was because Felix had crossed two levels at the end of his fourth year and mastered two level 6 spells that he had the strength to face the outside world with confidence.
Felix is somewhat saddened that if he had been able to react well, he might not have needed to get this high-level in a spell. If only he had better reflexes, maybe he wouldn’t need to resort to using elixir to master his skills.
But it’s a good thing that he spent the three years after graduating not for nothing, and he has developed a new form of magic for himself.
Felix would like to thank all those dark wizards who have made such an indelible contribution to his wizardry endeavours!
Thank you for putting your lives on the line.
…
Felix sat on the other side of the table, flipping through the information provided by Professor McGonagall, occasionally transcribing data and recording statistics – something he had been doing for two years in the Muggle world.
He had worked for three companies in the last two years, and each time he quit, the companies were reluctant to let him go, and not because he had cast a hypnosis spell!
In the afternoon, Felix and Professor McGonagall enjoyed their afternoon tea together, during which Felix asked a question.
“Assistant Professor?” McGonagall felt slightly puzzled. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂
“It’s just an assistant, which can be defined as someone who assists the professor with miscellaneous tasks such as organizing research materials, marking papers, supervising exams, auditioning for lectures, and that sort of thing.” Felix corrected. “Of course, there’s no shortage of little perks.”
Professor McGonagall understood a little, and she rolled her eyes slightly. I think you’re just trying to be lazy!
As Professor Snape said, “That Felix is a standard Slytherin!” He just got a teaching job, and he’s already trying to avoid his work!
“I don’t think it’s right for a professor to throw his work to the students.” Professor McGonagall said sternly, pursing her lips.
“Professor McGonagall, you misunderstand me, I am actually trying to train good students.”
Professor McGonagall had a look on her face that said, “You’re not going to fool me”.
“It’s true. I don’t intend to set up my own club in my first year, after all, I need some time to familiarize myself with teaching and the environment.”
A Club is a place where certain professors invite a group of students from each house who have excelled enough in their courses to get together and study magic.
It’s called a “club”.
Professor McGonagall’s Transfiguration Club, for example, held occasional events to learn about techniques and tricks that wouldn’t be covered in lectures or exams.
Professor McGonagall nodded, precisely because Felix is a newcomer, and she hasn’t mentioned this to him yet.
“So you’re saying that you want to find talents early? Preparing for next year’s club?” McGonagall asked.
“That’s right!”
Professor McGonagall looked down and thought about it, thinking that this could be done and that it would have many benefits for the students, and just a few extra pointers alone would be enough to attract the top students – as the only outstanding graduate with a dominant rank in the last few decades, Felix was more than qualified.
As for some academic dregs? Who cares what those dregs think? It has nothing to do with those academic scums!
There are no scums in any professor’s club.
“So, what are your criteria?” Professor McGonagall enquired, as such opportunities did not often come along, and she was prepared to use her power for personal gain, no, to give preference to the talents of her own house.
Felix thought about it and roughly conveyed a few things, “Well … first, active learners, that is, people who are willing to take the initiative to learn and are very eager for knowledge, secondly, well, the memory should be very good, and thirdly … the year level should not be too high, after all This is my first assistant, so I’d like to spend some time training him or her.”
“By the way, the result of the ancient magic rune is not important, I have special teaching tricks.” He added.
Felix thought about it again and decided that is pretty much all that he needed.
In reality, he was looking for a toolman to help him with all sorts of chores. But there were levels for toolmen, and a low-level rubbish toolman was not quite that useful for his magic work.
A low-level toolman is not as useful as a wizard toolman, but a tool from a student is different. Not only is it easy to use, but with a little training, it can be developed into a teaching assistant, a magic research assistant, or even a co-partner.
Professor McGonagall didn’t even want to think about it, and quickly went through the list of little lions in her house through her mind. Wood is no good, his time clashed with Quidditch; Percy is good, but he is already in the fifth year and had OWLs to prepare for this year …
The Weasley twins? They’ll be sent away after a couple of days! But those two do have potential …
Then, a name popped into her head.
“You mean Hermione Granger?” Felix got a little surprised, the name seemed to be one of the golden trios, right?
The same year as Harry Potter, so she is only second-year, right?
“Yes, she fits your requirements almost perfectly – love for knowledge, excellent memory, not too advanced in years.” Professor McGonagall spoke kindly, she has a soft spot for Miss Granger, as there is a rumour circulating around about one of Granger’s nicknames is ‘Little McGonagall’.
Seeing that Felix seemed a little hesitant, Professor McGonagall recommended the Weasley twins, but told him in advance of their awful pranking habits.
“I’ll have a chat with them when school begins.” Felix didn’t make up his mind at the end of the day.
