It can only be said that the surrounding environment does have a great influence on people, and the story of Mencius' mother moving three times is not without reason.

With almost all the Ravenclaw reading in the common room, even Harry and Ron, who were originally fond of copying homework in the original story, obediently started reading and began preparing for their lessons.

Of course, this may be related to Harry and Ron's experience having breakfast in the Great Hall.

"It's over there, look!"

Which way?

"Next to the tall, red-haired boy."

"That's Weasley with the Skywalker Gold Card!"

"The one with glasses?"

"Would you sell that Weasley gold card? I'm willing to pay 20 Galleons!"

Did you see his face?

"Did you see his scar?"

"Never mind Harry for now, we have a whole semester to go. You go and stop Weasley, I'm going back to get the money!"

The next day, Harry, Ron, Harry Ryan left their dormitory for breakfast, and the whispers followed them closely, even though most of the students had gone to Ron Filch the first floor to request the lifting of the ban on Take-copter, Ma Zhu, and underwater breathing tubes.

Ron was enjoying it, but he soon couldn't hold back. Under the onslaught of money, he couldn't resist taking out his gold card several times.

The students lined up outside the classroom, all standing on tiptoe, hoping to catch a glimpse of Harry and, incidentally, to stop Ron.

In the corridor, they walked past Harry, then turned back, staring intently at Harry, and every now and then trying to pull Ron away.

This experience made Harry and Ron rush back to the common room as soon as they finished eating, but they were still stumped by the problem at the door.

Fortunately, Ryan was right next to them looking for a stand-in to attract attention; otherwise, they would have had to wait a little longer for the other students to answer the questions.

The questions about the Eagle Ring are not actually difficult; most of them involve philosophical concepts. As long as the logic is sound and the explanation is plausible, the answer is correct.

Today is Monday. In the morning, Penelope thoughtfully handed out class schedules to each new student. Unlike Gryffindor, their first class in the morning is Charms Class, while Gryffindor's is Transfiguration.

Each course was very long, lasting two hours, which Ryan found very difficult to adjust to.

Charms Class is alright; I heard there's a 10-20 minute break in the middle. But Transfiguration and Potions Class have almost no break time.

Around 8:40 a. m., Ryan and his group, armed with the map provided by the Ravenclaw seniors, followed it to the Charms Class classroom on the 4th floor.

Even with a map, Hermione led the way, and they didn't arrive until almost 9 o'clock, just before class.

This is because there are a total of 142 staircases at Hogwarts.

Some of them are wide and large.

Some were narrow and small, and they wobbled.

Some routes go to different places every Friday.

Sometimes, halfway up, a step will suddenly disappear, and you have to remember where you should jump over it.

In addition, there are many doors here that won't open for you if you don't politely ask them to open, or if you poke the exact spot.

Some doors aren't real doors at all; they're just sturdy walls that look like doors.

That's why, even after getting to the fourth floor, it took about 10 minutes to find the Charms Class classroom.

The most crucial point is that the people in the portraits constantly visit each other, and even the armored figures can walk, with almost no reference points.

Furthermore, in order to identify which classroom is the Charms Class, one is constantly disturbed by ghosts that suddenly jump out when opening the door.

Fortunately, on the first day, during the first class, everyone gathered in the lounge and set off together to find their way; otherwise, we would definitely have been late.

Charms Class was a separate class for the Ravenclaw, not with Hufflepuff. Professor Flitwick, who also served as the head of Ravenclaw, took attendance before class. Perhaps because he had already obtained Harry Potter, when Harry's name was called, he did not scream excitedly and fall to the ground as he did in the original timeline.

Professor Flitwick was remarkably short and had Goblin blood. He stood on a stack of books to give his lecture. During the class, Professor Flitwick spent most of the time talking about the definition and uses of spells, occasionally taking out his wand to perform some tricks to attract everyone's attention. Around 10:20, he finally asked everyone to take out their wands and then taught the first spell, Lumos.

"Come on, everyone, repeat after me, Lumos (Lumos), Michael, don't take out your wand yet."

"The wand Lighting Charm is simple, but it requires concentration. So, students, please be careful not to accidentally set your wands on fire, as this damage is permanent."

"So, everyone, don't forget its counter-spell. Repeat after me, Nox!" Professor Flitwick emphasized.

After a few simple exercises, when almost all the students had mastered the material, Professor Flitwick moved around Neville, occasionally pointing out a few key points.

"Professor, Neville's problem is more with his wand. His wand is probably inherited from someone else, and they haven't even acknowledged him yet. I have a spell here: Mind Altering Charm!" Ryan drew his wand and pointed it at Neville's wand.

"Lumos!" Neville shouted again, his face flushed, and a fluorescent light shone from the tip of Neville wand.

"Incredible, Smith, how could you?" Professor Flitwick exclaimed in surprise.

"My spell only works temporarily, making the wand think it's in its owner's hands."

"The wand made of Unicorn Tail Hair is the most loyal wand. If it is not clearly and explicitly handed over to another person by its own master, the wand itself will refuse to use the new master and will hinder him."

"Neville, you probably need to buy a new wand that's more suitable for you," Ryan emphasized.

"My grandmother," Neville said timidly.

"I will write to Madam Longbottom to explain the situation." Professor Flitwick knew Neville's family's financial situation; they were not short of money to buy a wand.

"Alright, Ravenclaw 10 points! Thanks to Smith for making everyone understand the importance of wands."

"I have another question. I just mentioned it. What are the variations of the Wand Lighting Charm, and what are their effects?" Professor Flitwick prompted.

"Granger, please speak." As soon as Professor Flitwick finished speaking, Hermione raised her little hand, eager to prove herself.

"It has an enhanced spell, Lumos Maxima, which emits a larger and brighter beam of light, just like a flashlight."

"Lumos has several variants, the most famous of which is Lumos Solem (so-LEM), which can emit a dazzling beam of sunlight to defeat creatures that fear sunlight."

"And another thing," Hermione continued, launching into a long explanation.

"Alright, Ravenclaw 3 points, Ms. Granger, you've said enough."

"Today's homework is to write an article based on Lumos (Lumos), no less than 7 inches long. Class dismissed."

Class is over, it's already 11 o'clock. There's still Herbology and Transfiguration in the afternoon, and everyone is starving, so they jog to the Great Hall.

"Ryan, look at my wand!" Ron said with a worried expression.

"Ron, there's nothing wrong with your wand; it acknowledges you. But I still suggest you get a wand that truly belongs to you in the future," Ryan advised.
