A Button with an Added Scouring Charm

Professor McGonagall pressed the button gently, and the button immediately jiggled.

"Scourgify!" As the incantation rang out, she felt a gentle breeze brush against her body, carrying away some dust.

She examined the Dark Eye Button, and her usually pursed lips curved into a slight smile. "A very clever idea. How did you come up with the idea to do this?"

Wizet briefly recounted the events of the morning, focusing on her understanding of the "Magic Cube Theory" and demonstrating her understanding through Transfiguration.

He originally planned to conjure up a light-up button, but felt it wasn't detailed enough.

After much thought, he combined the techniques of making magical props with the principles of Wand-making, and added a few related details to achieve the current effect.

"Excellent! You've found the path that suits you best." Professor McGonagall nodded in satisfaction. "A truly exquisite Transfiguration. I'll add twenty points to Ravenclaw!"

She held the Dark Eye Button high, "Everyone can see, this is a button that Mr. Lovegood conjured up!"

"In fact, this already falls into the category of magical artifacts, not only turning ladybugs into buttons, but also incorporating Scouring Charm."

Immediately, a Slytherin girl asked in confusion, "Incorporated with the Scouring Charm? What does that mean?"

"You can try it, Miss Greengrass." Professor McGonagall lowered her hand and placed the button in the girl's palm. "Press it gently."

Greengrass picked up a button, frowned as he examined it, and then pressed it suspiciously.

"Scourgify!"

Another incantation was uttered, followed by a gathering of dust, which, along with a few strands of hair, coalesced into a small ball.

It was Greengrass's hair hanging on his clothes.

Pansy suddenly said from behind, "Daphne, let me see her!"

"Okay..." Greengrass nodded subconsciously and handed the button to Pansy.

Pansy pressed a button, and the chanting and a little dust reappeared.

She looked her over, her face full of doubt. "This really isn't a magical item?"

Draco reached out his hand and called out, "Pansy..."

The button was passed around among the Slytherin students until it turned back into a ladybug, at which point their doubts were resolved—the button really was made from a ladybug!

It wasn't a magical prop, but genuine Transfiguration and spells, which surprised them even more.

The fact that the button turned back into a ladybug naturally didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the other students.

They all wanted to know the principle behind this Transfiguration. If they could conjure up the Scouring Charm Button themselves, they could certainly save themselves a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Even after hearing Wizet's explanation, they were still confused.

Even with a forced attempt, it was difficult to combine the Transfiguration with the Scouring Charm as described by Wizet, thus giving it the function of a magical item.

Professor McGonagall shook her head slightly, realizing that completing such a button required more than just Transfiguration, and it was normal that the other students, with their existing knowledge, couldn't learn it.

As the bell rang, the students breathed a sigh of relief, carrying their Transfiguration creations and leaving the classroom chatting and laughing.

As Wizet was about to leave the classroom, Professor McGonagall said, "Wizet, you'll stay behind alone for a while."

With only the two of them left in the classroom, Professor McGonagall gave Wizet a long look before speaking, "Do you remember what I told you at the end of last school year?"

"Of course I remember!" Wizet nodded. "Animagus! I saw those Mandrake when I went to the greenhouse this morning."

Professor McGonagall's eyes showed appreciation. "Although that button can cast Scouring Charm, it is still a button, which shows that you have kept in mind the key points of Transfiguration, which is very good."

"This means you are indeed a good fit for the Animagus ... but it's a long and dangerous process, and that must be taken seriously... Wizet, are you really ready?"

"Of course." Wizet nodded again. "Even if I can't master Animagus, the learning process itself will still benefit me greatly."

"That's a very good mindset." Professor McGonagall smiled. "In that case, let's set the time for the weekend, how about Saturday afternoon at two o'clock?"

"Also, I hope you won't reveal this. Without proper knowledge and some helpful tips, Animagus is in more danger than you realize!"

Wizet immediately replied, "I will definitely be on time! I will not reveal this matter to anyone."

He thanked her repeatedly, and only after Hermione entered the classroom did he pick up his textbook and head to the History of Magic classroom.

As the second Transfiguration class began, Professor McGonagall felt her previously good mood being gradually worn away.

Compared to Ravenclaw's consistent performance, Gryffindor seemed to have forgotten about the course and returned to their time of outsmarting ladybugs.

Like Harry Potter, it feels like he's fighting a ladybug, constantly stabbing it with his wand to prevent it from falling off the table.

Seamus Finnigan's performance was absolutely phenomenal, both visually and in terms of its impact.

Although his movements were perfectly correct, he blasted the beetle into a charred mess and also cracked the desk in the process.

She was quite satisfied with Hermione Granger's performance; she completed the spell quickly and tried to gently guide Ron and Harry, showing considerable improvement compared to the previous school year.

Hufflepuff House, on the other hand, gave Professor McGonagall quite a pleasant surprise.

Their Transfiguration went smoothly, but Transfiguration method seemed familiar, much like the one used in the previous Ravenclaw House.

The process involves first flattening the ladybug's body, then gradually changing its tarsi, and finally transforming the spots on the ladybug's body into eyelets.

After watching Hanna's Transfiguration, Professor McGonagall asked, "Miss Abbott, your Transfiguration strategy is very clear. Would you like to share it with everyone?"

"Ah... Professor McGonagall!" Hanna almost jumped up. The ladybug, which had transformed into a button, turned back into its original form and started running around on the table.

She waved her hands frantically, "I can't... I can't explain it... I really can't explain it at all..."

"But the buttons you conjured up are very beautiful," Professor McGonagall said in a relaxed tone. "That shows you know what you're doing."

"Give yourself some confidence and share your experience with everyone. I can give Hufflepuff an extra five points."

"Five points!" Hanna stammered, "But... I just heard Wizet say that I should do that..."

She picked up her wand, wanting to try the Transfiguration again. "He said to follow the shape of the original object... Ladybugs are round... so I tried to imagine a round button shaped like a ladybug..."

Perhaps due to nervousness, despite Hanna's best efforts, she could only flatten the ladybug's body and failed to change its tarsi.

Professor McGonagall heard Hanna's words, "Wizet?"
