003. Professor McGonagall, please increase your efforts!
"Although it sounds a bit bad, I have to say that your adoptive father doesn't seem to be very responsible. He seems... he hasn't figured out the current situation." After coming back to his senses, Professor McGonagall frowned.
Lin Neng spread his hands and looked at her helplessly: "But the results are the same. You may not know much about my situation. To be honest, I didn't live a happy life in an orphanage before, so I actually found my adoptive father myself.
He took legal means to become my guardian, gave me enough freedom before he became an adult, and promised to fully cooperate with all my decisions, just sign where he needed to sign. And I had to guarantee that after I had the right to inherit my parents' inheritance, I would be given a certain reward.
Simply put, our adoption relationship is pure money transactions.”
Lynn said the truth, but the process is of course not that simple. After all, it is definitely not enough to make a deal between a child of a few years old and an adult.
In addition, he also used some shameful little means, which would not be worthy of being wise to outsiders.
Listening to Lynn's story, the expression on Professor McGonagall's face gradually softened.
She is not really a stern heart, she is just a cold face and a hot heart. This is a common problem among cats.
"Poor child, your situation is indeed a bit special." Professor McGonagall had already figured out how young Lynn could deal with dark and sinister adults, and ultimately could only rely on cold money transactions to gain freedom.
She didn't dare to think about the difficulties and difficulties she had experienced.
She thought for a moment and then continued.
“Before you head to Hogwarts, you also need to go to Diagon Alley to shop for learning items and textbooks. Although it is not as dangerous as the Overturn Alley, I think it’s better to have an adult with you.
So after a while, Hogwarts will send another professor to help you complete the preparations before school, and then be sure to pay attention to the letters sent by the owl."
"No problem, professor."
Lynn naturally had no objection to this. Although he would not have any problems when he went to Diagon Alley alone, it would be better to have someone familiar with the magic world with him.
Moreover, the professors in Hogwarts are all a group of great teachers, and even Snape is just a little flawed in his personality.
It is definitely not a bad thing to be familiar with beforehand.
Everything that should be said was said. Professor McGonagall did not sit for too long, and she also had to go to the next Muggle freshman for admission guidance.
Before leaving, she smiled at Lynn with a rare smile.
"It can be seen that Belloc, you are a child of noble quality, wit and courage. Hogwarts is looking forward to your arrival."
Lin En grabbed his hair shyly. Just as he was about to say a few words of modesty, the familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
[You have received sincere praise from Minerva McGonagall Professor of Transformation, Tyranny of Transformation +1, Transformation Effect +1.]
At the same time, Lynn felt that some changes had occurred in his body, but he couldn't say what kind of changes it had.
But it's certainly a change in a good direction.
Lynn's expression suddenly changed, and he looked eagerly at Professor McGonagall who was about to move away with a phantom.
"Then goodbye to Hogwarts..."
"Wait, professor! Hurry up, praise me again!"
“…”
Professor McGonagall stopped in surprise and was about to wave his wand, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears.
Although Westerners are more outward, they are not so shameless. The McGonagall looked at Lynn with a strange look, as if he wanted to see through his skin, whether the walls in Hogwarts Castle were thick.
"Professor, you know, I'm an orphan." Lynn looked at her with all his acting skills.
"I have lived in orders and harshness since I was a child. Even my adoptive father is just greedy for the inheritance left by my parents, so I have never heard of others praise me. Your praise just now almost made me cry."
As Lynn spoke, she started sobbing quietly, as if she was really moved to cry.
"Maybe my request is a bit unreasonable, but please, can you praise me once?"
Professor McGonagall is not so easy to cheat after living at such an old age.
She looked at Lin En, who had a great acting skills suspiciously, and always felt that something was wrong.
Seeing that the performance did not work, Lynn had to continue to increase his efforts.
He wiped the tears that had finally squeezed out of his eyes and sighed.
"Okay, professor, I'm abrupt. A person like me really has no advantages and strengths, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to be praised by the teacher..."
"Ahem."
After Lynn said this, Professor McGonagall felt a little sad. After all, he was just an 11-year-old child, and it was the time to need others to recognize him.
"Don't belittle yourself, Belloke, you...you..."
I have known each other for too short, and Professor McGonagall can't think of any praise except for the two words he had just expressed.
Lynn had to give her a slight reminder.
"You see, I look good, and I can find my own adoptive father. How filial..."
Professor McGonagall held it in for a long time and finally came up with a sentence.
"You're a good kid."
The next moment, a sound sounded in Lin Neng's mind.
[You got the good guy card against your will by Mirreva McGonagall, and nothing happened.]
Lin Neng, who was still very happy the previous second, turned green the next second.
I don't even want my face, but that's the end?
Professor McGonagall, who told the lies, was now feeling uneasy.
"It's getting late, Mr. Belloc, I have to leave."
"Let's go slowly and don't send him off, professor."
“…”
After Professor McGonagall left, Lynn shouted out the system in his head and saw his current attribute panel.
【Name: Lynn Belloke】
【Title: None】
【Magic Index: 2】
【Free Points: 0】
【Magic Talent: Transformation 3, General Curse 2, Attack, Defensive Curse 2, Black Magic 5, Potion 2, Alchemy 2, Herbal Medicine 2, Ancient Runevin 2, Divination 0…]
【Main mission: Go to Hogwarts, reward: Close your brain.】
[Limited time mission: 1. Get a magic wand, reward: Magic index +1, countdown 30 days.]
【2. Successfully release the first spell, reward: 1 free point, countdown 40 days.】
[Note: There is no penalty for failure of time-limited tasks.]
Lin Neng studied his attribute panel for a long time and didn't even eat supper. He probably saw some tricks.
In addition to transformation, divination and black magic, his other magical talents are 2, and the full value is 10, which means that 2 is probably the talent level of a normal wizard.
The reason why the Transformation is 3 is because Professor McGonagall just praised him, and the system gave him 1 point.
It is understandable that the divination technique is 0. After all, this ability of the divine god is purely based on talent. If there is, there is, there is nothing, and there is basically no possibility of cultivating it the day after tomorrow.
What he couldn't understand the most was the talent of black magic.
What the hell is there at the beginning of 5 points?
Collecting the fact that he was born as a villain?
Lin Neng's face was a little dark, and she felt that her kind personality was suspected.
As for the main tasks and time-limited tasks below, there is nothing to say.
Going to Hogwarts is almost a matter of deciding to the board. Brain closure, the magic he needs most now is equivalent to giving it for free.
The next two limited-time tasks were not difficult, but he didn't know when Professor McGonagall said that the professor who took him to Diagon Alley would come.
Chapter completed!
