Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 859: Albert is busy
"You really don't plan to publish a paper on Transfiguration Today this year?" Cedric couldn't understand why Albert would temporarily give up publishing a paper on Transfiguration Today.
"Originally, I thought it would be easier in sixth grade, but it turned out to be a lot of things." Albert sighed long, as if he wanted to spit out all the pressure he had accumulated recently: "I I'm so busy that I can't breathe, and it's not good to keep occupying the position of today's Transfiguration thesis, you have to make room for newcomers, and now I'm not lacking in fame, and I don't care about those things, not to mention, I think you should compete Today's Most Promising Rookie Award in Transfiguration, getting a few more titles will make it easier to enter the Ministry of Magic in the future."
Cedric was silent for a moment, and finally said thank you to Albert. He finally knew the reason why Albert gave up his paper on Transfiguration Today opportunity for prizes.
If Albert continues to publish papers in journals, with his mountain in front of him, Hogwarts students are basically unlikely to win the most promising newcomer award before he graduates.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall called to Albert, who was about to leave Room 21.
"Professor McGonagall, what's the matter?" Albert stopped and turned to look at Professor McGonagall who was walking towards him.
"Transfiguration today is going to organize your previous papers published in journals into a collection of papers." Professor McGonagall told Albert about the good news, but she did not get the expected answer.
"Professor, can I get the royalties? I mean if I publish my paper collection there, can I get Galleons?" Albert asked this question without hesitation.
Professor McGonagall opened her mouth, and she didn't know how to answer for a while. Albert's question was beyond her expectations, because there is no manuscript fee for writing a paper on Transfiguration Today, even if she spends her spare time Time for Today's Transfiguration to revise the article is also free to help.
Oh, if receiving a free copy of Transfiguration of the Day every month counts as royalties.
"If there is no royalties, then forget it!" Albert said lightly, as if it were a trivial matter.
"This is a great opportunity!" Cedric reminded kindly, "I dare say Transfiguration has never done anything like this today."
"That's because they don't have the chance to do that. I've published enough metamorphosis papers in recent years, and I'm now quite famous. They just plan to use my fame to make money by publishing books." Albert doesn't care. The strange glances from others around, said to themselves: "If they don't want to give money, but want me to work for them, how can it be so good?"
"It seems to make sense." Cedric was stunned.
"If there is no mention of royalties over there, please reply to them. I'm already famous enough, and I don't want to be more famous." Albert said to Professor McGonagall.
"Okay!" Professor McGonagall said speechlessly, and continued, "One more thing, the president of the Boys Student Council complained to me that you threw away the prefect's job."
"Professor, I think newcomers should be given some opportunities to exercise themselves. I can't let me do everything and let them lose the opportunity to make mistakes and grow?" Albert quickly made an excuse for himself.
Once again, Cedric has a new appreciation for his friend's cheekiness, so why is he able to talk about slacking so cleanly?
"This is not good for your seventh grade election for student council president." Professor McGonagall reminded with a frown.
"It's okay, it's not like Cedric, a good student who is serious and responsible, I think it's quite suitable." Albert didn't care about whether he could become the president of the student union, and he didn't forget to complain. Dao: "There are too many things recently, I always don't have enough time, and I'm so dizzy."
"Well, you can always find all kinds of excuses anyway." Professor McGonagall stared at Albert for a while, and stopped talking about it, because she found that Albert seemed to be really interested in becoming a student union. The chairman is not interested.
Of course, it may also be that Albert is really too busy. After the time converter is turned in, the time becomes insufficient.
After several people left office 21 together, Cedric asked suspiciously: "Are you really short of money? How can I hear people say that you are holding a stack of first-class tickets and watching it on the World Cup stadium. A few days of ball games."
Everyone around is looking at Albert. It's not easy to get a ticket to the top box, so this guy just hit him?
"The tickets given by others, how can I buy such expensive tickets as Gallen, and it's not that I have money and nowhere to spend." Albert shrugged and explained.
"Why didn't anyone send me tickets to the World Cup?" Cedric thought of Galleon, who spent the Quidditch World Cup with his father, and couldn't help but sour.
"No one gave you tickets, but someone gave you money!" Albert smiled and patted Cedric on the shoulder: "You can contribute to the defense guide. If you can be admitted, it will be published in In the magazine, you can get a manuscript fee, it is said that the maximum is ten Galleons, and it is paid every month, think about it carefully, make some money, go out with Qiu in the future, and at least have the money to buy her gifts."
"Me and Qiu..."
"Don't you have her in your hands yet?" Albert looked at Cedric with suspicious eyes, "What's so embarrassing about having a girlfriend."
"What is the Defense Guide?" Cedric hurriedly changed the subject.
"Professor Lupin created a magazine, you know, his identity is basically difficult to find a job, so I suggested that he start a magazine." Albert let Cedric let go and continued: " I have a copy over there, and I'll bring it to you next Monday."
"No wonder you complained about Transfiguration of the Day just now." Cedric said suddenly.
"It's purely because the metamorphosis looks ugly today, otherwise I don't want to worry about these things." Albert shrugged: "If the other party is really sincere, they will contact me directly through Owl to discuss this matter with me. , instead of telling me through Professor McGonagall, there is no sincerity at all. Of course, it may also be that the editor-in-chief of Transfiguration Today is an idiot, or he doesn't want to pay me at all, so he dare not tell me about it directly. "
"You can see clearly." Cedric sighed softly and changed the subject, "By the way, Gabriel wrote to me during the summer vacation, and he said that you introduced him to the Ministry of Magic. Muggle Liaison Office."
"I'm not that talented, Gabriel got into the Ministry of Magic on his own, and the Muggle Liaison Office often doesn't get hired, you know, a lot of purebloods don't really like to be with Muggles. Related occupations." Albert still kept in touch with Truman, a letter a month, and Truman often complained about some broken things in the letter, or said news heard in the Ministry of Magic. Recently, following Albert's advice, he was ready to write a novel about the farce he encountered at the Muggle Liaison Office.
"My birthday is coming up, and you can just send me that defense guide as a birthday present." Cedric stopped and asked, "What would you like? Books, or candy? "
"You can send me a quill, not bright colors."
Katrina, who was following behind them, heard the two begging each other for a birthday present, and couldn't help complaining: "You guys are very simple!"
"I think sometimes it's good to say, at least I won't get a bunch of gifts I don't like on my birthday and Christmas. Now many people are used to giving me various books on my birthday. My Most of the books on the bookshelf are gifts from others." Albert joked with a smile: "What are you going to give me for my birthday?"
"On your birthday, I'll give you a book." Katrina prepared a gift very early, anyway, Albert's gift is a good choice.
"I have something to do later. I'll go first." When Cedric passed the entrance of the secret passage, he stopped to say goodbye to the two of them, then stretched out his hand to remove the carpet by the wall and bent over to get in.
After Cedric left, the two continued down the corridor and reached the fifth floor by moving the stairs.
In the unoccupied corridor to the library, Katrina suddenly stopped and asked Albert: "Do you think I am dressed like Isobel?"
"I think you were better before." Albert actually noticed Katrina's dress long ago, and said seriously: "You are you, she is her."
"Didn't you want to invite Isobel to the Christmas ball?" Katrina said with a slightly complicated expression, "I agree."
"Sorry, I've given up on that bad idea, I think Isobel should have told you about it." Albert simply apologized to Katrina: "I have to apologize to you for this, I hope not Makes you unhappy."
Katrina was silent again and smiled: "You don't need to apologize, I think there are countless girls who want to compete for your dance partner position."
"Thank you." Albert breathed a sigh of relief, "Isobel isn't here, choosing a dance partner is really a hassle."
I don't know why, Katrina thought it was a little funny, and also a little sympathetic to the group of students who were going to compete with Albert for warriors, because before certain things started, Albert already knew the result in advance.
When the two walked into the library, they encountered Professor Moody at the entrance. He was waiting for Mrs. Pince to go through the book-borrowing procedures, and he complained raggedly: "...I can't find a more suitable one right now. I have used some of the Auror's training materials as textbooks for senior students.
"Professor Moody, where do you have Auror training materials?" Albert glanced at the faceless monster in Moody's hand.
"Although I wouldn't mind lending you those textbooks, it's against Ministry of Magic rules." Moody turned his head and grinned at Albert with an ugly smile. He swiped it on the face of Katrina, who had entered the library with him, and looked back again and said, "The Ministry of Magic will definitely not like the content of Auror training leaked. To be honest, they don't want students to be exposed to too much about Knowledge of evil spells, and even some black magic knowledge, can only be accessed in the sixth grade. It's hell, it's no wonder that most wizards can't pronounce a decent armor spell."
"I thought you'd let those rules go to hell." Albert said without hesitation, "Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts has always been a joke internationally."
"You're right, I think so too," said Professor Moody gruffly, "The students at the school are really bad at Defense Against the Dark Arts, and you're probably the only exception I've found. If you can become a warrior at Hogwarts, I will suggest to Dumbledore to open the collection of books in the restricted area to you."
Moody didn't know that Albert actually had the "right to use" the forbidden area for a long time. Even if it was not open to him, he could still borrow the books from the forbidden area.
"Okay, don't talk here, if you want to talk, go outside the library and talk." Mrs. Pince finally couldn't bear the two guys who ignored the library's rules and glared fiercely. They, ready to start chasing people.
"At your current level, passing the Auror test is easy. What you need now is to gain experience, not to learn those messy spells." Moody turned and left after saying that.
Regarding the training materials for Aurors, Albert did not expect to get them from Moody from the very beginning. He believed that it would not be difficult to obtain training materials for Aurors by following the path of Wild Smith's house~IndoMTL .com~ Katrina occupied an empty seat for the two of them, and then went to find information with Albert, "I heard that Professor Moody has a nickname called Mad-Eye."
"It's really suitable for him." Albert said softly: "Professor Moody was once recognized as the best Auror at the time. It is said that he has captured most of the prisoners in Azkaban Prison today. Yes, so he has a bunch of enemies, and he is suspicious all day long, worried that he will be revenge by others."
"He seems to be very optimistic about you becoming an Auror?" Katrina put several books in front of Albert and began to read the materials needed for the Transfiguration Thesis.
"Unfortunately, I'm not interested in Aurors. It's not good to fight and kill. I'm a pacifist." Deformed knowledge.
Katrina doesn't believe a word of this. There have been a lot of weird things happening in the school before, and some Slytherin students have suffered bad luck, but no one knows who did it, at least no evidence can be found. .
Ten minutes later, Albert began to concentrate on writing the thesis on human deformation. He needed to finish the homework accumulated some time ago as soon as possible. In the afternoon, he promised Isobel to go over for dinner and see the ancient magic she recently wrote. Contents of the text guide.
The Defense Guide will also need his attention next month, not only that, but he has two letters to write, and a paper on the innovation of magic spells to write, just like Albert said before, busy all day Gotta die.
