From Azkaban To Hogwarts

"What the hell - are these people crazy?"

On the first day after the Easter holiday, William sat in his seat, looking at pieces of information about the black market in the British wizarding world, shaking his head as he read.

Based on Sirius's strong cooperation this time, he specially gave Sirius a big gift, but he didn't expect that things would go as far as they did now.

According to the information he collected, the Ministry of Magic's Office for the Abuse of Magic received more than thirty applications in one day to register as an Animagus - although most of them were delusions of using potions or He used transformation techniques to deceive, but the real Animagus appeared for three times...

Is this Chinese cabbage? So many of them appeared quietly?

The important trigger for this outrageous incident was an even more outrageous thing - on the black market, a small amount of Animagus hair mixed with transformed hair that was verified and approved by the Ministry of Magic was sold for seven Galleons…

The outrageous price almost made William want to get a haircut and register his own Animagus... Fortunately, he calmed down. But even so, when he was arranging his clothes in the mirror, he still felt that his hair was faintly shining with golden light.

There is even a popular amulet sold on the black market that is extremely expensive. A silver chain hangs an amulet filled with Animagus hair, which is claimed to be able to effectively prevent werewolf attacks...

That's not all the outrageous things happened - the oldest registered Animagus appeared, demonstrated his skillful Animagus skills at the age of eighty-nine, and then successfully put the half-bald man on his head. The remaining hair on the body was cashed out for a large sum of galleons.

Another Animagus encountered a profiteer when he was selling his own hair - the other party paid the original price, but during the collection, all the hair of the provider was processed with magic scissors. The funds were paid in full, but it was said that the Animagus fell into isolation.

In addition, William also received a letter from an Animagus - he very seriously stated that he was willing to fully cooperate with William's experiment to test whether lizard blood has the same effect... but it was too easy for William to endanger his life. I politely declined.

"It's almost the same here, Professor William..."

Lupine had a wry smile on his face. As a very well-known werewolf, and his friendship with Sirius had been widely exposed, which resulted in Lupine receiving a lot of letters from his own race.

Some asked him how he felt about taking the medicine, some asked if he could buy some finished medicines from him, and some were begging him to donate some hairs - of course, the most common ones in the letters were praising him for his great contributions to the werewolf group. The spirit of trying medicine without hesitation.

Everyone knows that the most dangerous people who test the medicine must be the first batch - Lupine is Sirius's friend and a colleague of the researcher Professor William. Who else is he?

"I have sent hundreds of letters to respond to those public opinions, and I am also preparing to issue an announcement..." Lu Ping frowned, "But those compliments are easy to handle, and what should I do with those inquiries and pleas... "

If he were an Animagus, Lupine would be willing to go to class with a bald head every day in order to provide enough hair for those poor families and children, but he is not - he can't pluck Sirius's hair to give it to himself It's a favor...

"I have some ideas for that..."

A narrow smile appeared on William's face, "Don't forget, we also have a very excellent hair provider..."

"You mean-" Lupine's eyes lit up, and he almost forgot about his former friend who was still alive.

"That's right, the one in Azkaban, or rather the two, Rita can also be put to good use."

William put down the information in his hands smoothly, "Although neither of them can provide the raw materials for Animagus transformation, Sirius has much more hair than hair after transformation..."

"The ratio of alien Animagus hair is still under study. The experiment can be carried out next time the moon is full - even if there is no way to come up with a universal formula, I can still calculate the results after Sirius transforms. The hair of the Animagus is proportional to that of the other two, so that’s enough for you to give away.”

"What's worse is Harry. His Animagus actually has quite a lot of hair after transformation..."

William got up and began to write down the general process of the potion formula on a piece of parchment. Moody looked at the parchment with his magical eyes and felt that the fireplace in the office was not warm enough, which made people feel sad. Chills.

If he remembered correctly, Sirius invited William to be a guest there at the very beginning?

Now, it’s okay. It doesn’t matter if the hair before the transformation is not saved. The hair after the transformation must be kept clean.

Lupine didn't feel cold at all, and felt warm in his heart - if he didn't do anything to Sirius's hair, it wouldn't be impossible... because both Sirius and Harry's Animagus had the problem of losing hair...

"But if you just send the hair out like this..."

He was still a little confused.

"Why do you have to send the hair directly? We send the finished medicine directly!"

William looked at Lupine in confusion, "The cost of the potion is so low. Although it is a bit difficult to brew, it is not a big pressure. It would be great if you announced that you would only donate it to underage werewolves under the age of seventeen!"

"If you only pay for minors..." Lu Ping calculated, with a little joy on his face, "If you buy one less robe, no, no, if you only buy one robe a year - the money is enough!"

? ? ?

William looked at Luping doubtfully, "Professor Luping, are you planning to do such an important thing yourself?"

"Um?"

"You don't think Azkaban will let you in to collect hair easily, do you?"

"Ah?" Lupine looked at William, and then he remembered this important thing - he was always shrewd, but because he was so happy, he actually forgot that he couldn't even fix the hair of the two people...

"Of course you can't lead such a big thing!"

William began to teach the secrets from his friend Singed, "Can you handle this? Can you bear it? Of course not - you discovered this problem and reported it to Professor McGonagall. The professor asked the Ministry of Magic for help, and after Minister Fudge’s review and special approval, we were able to use the hair of the prisoners in Azkaban to prepare the potion!”

"With the approval of Minister Fudge, Hogwarts is responsible for boiling and providing the potion, and then distributing it to underage werewolves for free through the Ministry of Magic. As a loving plan, this is the correct way to proceed."

As for adults, William didn't even mention it - he had to be responsible for Sirius's safety, and he was afraid that if Sirius took over everything, he would be assassinated in the office. Given the current popularity of the market, unless Dumbledore provides the hair, it’s doubtful who will come...

"So, in the end, the Ministry of Magic paid for it, we boiled the potion, and then distributed it?"

"It could also be the Potions Office, I'm not sure..." William spread his hands - Fudge would 100% agree with reporting this kind of thing, but it would cause Sirius to suffer again.

It's not a big problem. If he donates his hair a few more times, Sirius might be able to get a Merlin Order of Merlin, Level 3.

"I'll have to talk to Padfoot."

Lupine was a little moved, but decided to put the matter aside for now - Sirius was already worried about his hair, and he couldn't let him worry about his hair in Animagus form anymore.

——

"He agreed," Lupine had a strange look on his face when Sirius's reply came, "and he felt that part of Harry's Animagus hair could be donated..."

So when there is no danger, the father is the danger - even the godfather?

William was also speechless, but he still began to guide Lupine to complete the report and prepare to send it to Professor McGonagall - according to Professor McGonagall's method, the school's funds may be richer.

After about half an hour, this simple report was completed, and William and Lupine began to walk towards Professor McGonagall's office.

"Don't worry, Professor Lupine, this is a sure thing," William explained to Lupine, who had experienced this kind of circling behavior for the first time, while thinking about how to fine-tune the formula of the medicine to perfectly match the foreign hair.

'If I can't help it, I'll donate some of my money... But the Animagus information must not be exposed... Whether it's mine or Harry's, from the perspective of pure blood in the wizarding world, something is exposed here, the Dark Lord You can tell almost immediately - it's completely a leaky place, eh? ’

He raised his head in surprise and saw a figure wandering outside Professor McGonagall's office.

'Damn...I forgot all...'

William suddenly remembered something that he had completely forgotten.

If his memory was correct, on the full-moon night before the Easter holidays, he agreed to Professor McGonagall to initiate the first steps of Animagus for Miss Hermione Granger.

But before the last full moon night, Dumbledore was sued by his brother once, causing Professor McGonagall to hand over the burden to Dumbledore and run out for vacation. After causing chaos in the castle, That full moon night just passed.

Then on this full moon night, William, who had already made an appointment with Mr. Belby, was obsessed with improving the Wolfsbane potion and completely forgot about introducing Animagus.

If he hadn't met her in front of Professor McGonagall's office this time, he would have forgotten about the big plan he had discussed with Lupine.

Therefore, William still feels a little guilty - but it's not a big problem.

"Classmate Granger, do you have something to do with Professor McGonagall?"

William asked as he knocked on the door of Professor McGonagall's office.

"Please come in."

Professor McGonagall's voice sounded—but she didn't look very happy.

‘Why does this expression look similar to that of Sirius—does anyone dare to ask Professor McGonagall for hair? ’

William cursed in his heart, but did not dare to say a word.

After briefly explaining his purpose, Professor McGonagall completed the form handed over by Lupine, "It will take about a day or two to get it done. This proposal is very good, Professor Lupin."

‘It can’t really happen, can it? ’

Seeing that Professor McGonagall's expression no longer looked as worried as before, William couldn't help but make a guess - however, there was no way to verify it.

But there is no need to verify it, because Professor McGonagall almost blew herself up.

After Lupine was assigned to communicate with Sirius, Professor McGonagall looked at Hermione seriously.

"I'm sorry, Miss Granger. Logically speaking, I should arrange an Animagus transformation for you now - but it is too dangerous now. If you learn it and expose it, it will be equivalent to carrying a big bag of Galleons. Walking away...this is so unfair to you."

"There is still some time before the full moon. I hope you can seriously think about the pros and cons - if you don't choose to register, you will enter Azkaban, but if you choose to register, you will be watched by the whole world."

"What I must tell you is that the news of the potion has spread, and several nearby countries have begun to stir up interest..."

——

"Studying werewolves?"

On the other side of the ocean, in Ilvermorny, Voldemort studied the latest intelligence from Britain.

"The new Wolfsbane potion..." He showed a cruel smile, "Has Hogwarts fallen so far that the Potions professor has to teach instead?"

"Huh... a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who neglects his job and goes to make potions is derelict in his duties."

"I hope that when he falls in front of black magic in the future, he can properly repent for his dereliction of duty."

A contemptuous smile appeared on his lips.

Once he got this information, he knew that the British wizarding community had nothing to worry about.

He had originally alerted those people because of the raids on Azkaban and then the Ministry of Magic, but those losers turned out to be worse than he thought.

A Defense Against the Dark Arts professor went to study potions, and the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic were incompetent and angry at the werewolves - they were complete losers.

'Although it was a waste that Greyback's dog died, it was not an obedient dog after all...'

He didn't feel any pity at all, and even felt a little happy.

"Lord Dark Lord."

"Huh? What's the matter, Bertha?"

Due to Bertha's luck, he decided to give the loyal Death Eater a little more time.

"That's right, that Professor William is famous for being good at teaching. He even set examination records and won the Merlin Level 2 Medal."

"Potion?"

Voldemort's eyes showed a trace of scarlet.

"No, self-defense...that is, the new Defense Against the Dark Arts course."

…

There was a rare silence - Voldemort's eyes were frighteningly red, and then he took the information in Bertha's hand.

'Interesting, really interesting...'

'When I take over Hogwarts, I will let him come to Ilvermorny to give a few classes and try it out... to see if it is really like what those people said, so that all the students can pass the exam. ’

"Bertha."

"Yes, I am here, Lord Dark Lord."

"Collect Animagus, the more the better - we are going to use new potions to force the werewolves here to join us."

"Yes, Lord Dark Lord."
