Chapter 41: Ever-changing! Three deductions, Magic Animagus! Following Charles's words, twenty thousand deduction points were deducted. What followed was that Ciel had honed the basic Transfiguration technique to the point where it was almost instinctive, taking a sudden step towards mastering the Animagus Transfiguration technique. In the wizarding world, there are not many wizards who can master the Animagus transfiguration technique. There are only a handful of legal Animagus registered with the Ministry of Magic. Even if illegal Animagus are included, there are no more than ten wizards who have mastered this transfiguration in the original work. The reason is that the traditional Animagus transformation method in the magic world is too cumbersome, and the process requires the preparation of potions under various harsh conditions. It’s not difficult, but if you make a mistake you have to start all over again. If there is no reason to practice Animagus, such as James Potter, Sirius Black and others helping Lupin who turned into a werewolf, or reporter Reggie needing to investigate various secrets, few wizards would spend so much effort practicing Animagus. It takes so much effort just to become an animal. You can neither get rich nor increase your strength. There's even a chance that you might turn into a bug or something and get eaten by a bird by accident. Who would be happy about that?
There are also less complicated methods. For example, when the first group of wizards began to practice Animagus Transfiguration, they did not have such mature fool-proof tutorials that could allow several Hogwarts students to practice it. Without the help of potions, he had to rely solely on his skills in Transfiguration to transform. This is not complicated, but this process is enough to cause more than 90% of wizards to have various sequelae, and even nearly half of the wizards will be transformed into animals forever! Those successful ones constantly accumulated experience and summarized lessons, and developed the complicated but basically safe Animagus transformation process that is now commonly used in the wizarding world. Basically every step here cannot be simplified any further and can be said to be a result of thousands of trials and tribulations. If someone could further improve the Animagus Transfiguration, even if it was just to reduce the tediousness of practicing it a little, this would be enough to shock the field of Transfiguration in the wizarding world, and getting the Order of Merlin, Second Class, would be a sure thing! It's a pity that even Transfiguration masters like Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore couldn't accomplish this task. But now, the Deep Blue System was burning up the deduction points, and coupled with the materials obtained from the disguised Animagus, this feat that would take several generations to complete was accomplished in an instant in Charles' mind! "Transfiguration - Animagus direction, secondary deduction completed." "Host gains full Animagus Transfiguration!" A deep blue reminder sounded in Ciel's mind. Along with this, there is also a huge amount of information about the so-called complete Animagus Transfiguration. "Since the creation of the Animagus Transfiguration, the ambitions of Transfiguration Masters have never been limited to transforming into just one animal." "A master of Transfiguration can transform a matchstick into anything in the world. How can he be satisfied with only being able to transform into an animal when it comes to his own transformation? Even this process is random and uncontrollable, and it depends on everyone's personality?" "The ability to change into a myriad of animals and switch freely between them is the ambition of the Animagus Transfiguration when it was created." "It's just that this goal is too difficult, and the current magic world is still far from achieving it." "But now... I am!" "Complete Animagus Transfiguration means that you can transform yourself into any ordinary animal at will, whether it is a bird, a beast, or an insect!" Charles took a deep breath, excitement showing on his face. The next moment, he performed the full Animagus transformation. In an instant, Charles' human form disappeared, and a gorgeous tiger appeared in the room. Ciel raised his palms, which should now be called claws, and stepped on the floor.
The thick pads of flesh eliminated almost all sounds, making his movements seem like a ghost. And his vision, sense of smell, physical explosion, etc., are no different from a real tiger! Then, Charles suddenly jumped up and pounced forward. Halfway through the flight, he changed again. A pair of wings grew on the tiger's back, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a golden eagle. Just flap the wings casually and there will be a whistling of air, and Charles can rush out of the window and soar into the sky at any time! As he once again performed the complete Animagus Transfiguration, the golden eagle fell to the ground again and turned into an ant, moving across the extremely large room. After a while, Charles' figure reappeared in the room. These wonderful experiences made Charles couldn't help but admire them. "It feels like Monkey King's 72 transformations." "This is a complete Animagus Transfiguration. If I were to submit this for a paper, I'd probably publish it until I die if I'm careful. I'd get a bunch of Orders of Merlin!" "This kind of transformation is much more useful in combat than before. It allows me to fly without the aid of anything, and I can also use the senses of animals to conduct exploration..." However, even though he had developed the Animagus transfiguration technique to this point, Ciel was still not satisfied. It is truly magical that one can transform into ordinary animals at will. But this is the wizarding world, and there are so many magical creatures, and the best of them are completely superior to ordinary beasts and even wizards. For example, there is a magical animal called the Nangdu Panther, whose breath is extremely poisonous, and it is said that it requires at least a hundred adult wizards to work together to capture it. There are also magical animals like the basilisk, whose gaze has an instant death effect. Even beings like ghosts will be petrified if they look directly into its gaze. Isn't this much better than the Killing Curse? If it could transform into a magical animal, Ciel felt that Animagus Transfiguration would have real practical value. And this is exactly the direction of the third transfiguration he envisioned, and it has also been declared impossible by the transfiguration masters in the magic world - magical Animagus transformation! Over the centuries, many Transfiguration masters have pursued this direction. But without exception, they either died from the magic runaway during the transformation, or were completely transformed into magical creatures, with no way to recover. Therefore, the field of Transfiguration has come to believe that this is an impossible direction to achieve. But at this moment, Charles' eyes were burning. What the magic world considers impossible is not impossible for him who possesses Deep Blue. "Deep Blue, how many points do you need to perform three deductions of Transfiguration in the direction of Magic Animagus?" Deep Blue gave the answer. "Since we have obtained precious Animagus Disguise materials, which have a significant reference role in the magic Animagus Transfiguration, the points required for this deduction have been greatly reduced to 200,000 points." Charles clenched his fists, his heart filled with joy. This number is similar to his estimate. He had already collected 200,000 points, and even had nearly 80,000 points left! Without the slightest hesitation, Ciel growled in his mind.
"Deep Blue, triple metamorphosis, direction of magic Animagus!" (End of this chapter)
