“Ravenclaw-like power?”
Professor Flitwick looked at Scott with novel eyes, trying to figure out what he meant.
Scott said: “Ravenclaws generally only focus on things that interest them, and always maintain a cold-shoulder attitude towards other things.”
Professor Flitwick nodded. Ravenclaw did produce many nerds and lunatics that others saw.
“But only we understand what we are after.”
Scott said again.
“The name of our college means raven’s paw. We are extremely greedy for knowledge, but often disdainful of power and fame.”
He paused here and added, “Except for a few people like Professor Lockhart.”
Professor Flitwick nodded at first, but his face turned a bit ugly when he heard Lockhart’s name.
He sighed, “Lockhart… that’s probably the weirdest Ravenclaw I’ve ever seen…”
Scott shrugged, “Speaking of which, he just focuses on what he is interested in…”
Making a joke, he continued: “Our representative element is wind. Among the four elements, wind represents change, rationality, abstraction, wit, sociability, and language. It also represents disputes, lack of emotion, lack of foundation, and impetuousness.”
“It seems you have done a lot of research on this.” Professor Flitwick said with a smile.
Scott said longingly, “Ravenclaw-style power, that is the ideal state in my imagination.”
Professor Flitwick looked at him encouragingly.
Scott coughed slightly, “Ravenclaw is like an eagle perched in the sky and on the top of the tower. It does not need to participate in the battles on the ground, but its keen eyesight can see everything clearly from high places.”
He added: “I don’t participate just because I don’t want to. I want no one to be able to influence my stance and actions. I want to be the freest wizard.”
“Freedom?” Professor Flitwick said softly, “Indeed, Ravenclaws advocate freedom, and we will respect each other’s individuality and pursuits…but the freest wizard?”
He laughed, “It is indeed an ideal state.”
Scott also smiled and said: “Gryffindor has a wizard called the ‘greatest’ like Principal Dumbledore, and even Slytherin has a Dark Lord who has influenced countless people, Ravenclaw. Of course, a freest wizard can also appear.”
“Oh, Scott.”
Professor Flitwick couldn’t help but remind Scott.
“Dumbledore is known as the greatest wizard of this century, and not just because he is a powerful wizard.”
He said seriously.
“It’s more because he has made a huge contribution to the peace of the magical community in England and even Europe, and even has a profound influence internationally.”
“I understand, Professor.”
Scott nodded.
“Although I’m not interested in maintaining world peace or anything like that,” he said bluntly, “but I always feel that the only thing that differentiates wizards from Muggles is magic. The progress of magic is the progress of wizards.”
“It seems your ambition is greater than I thought.”
Listening to Scott’s shameless words, Professor Flitwick did not deny him immediately.
He just looked at Scott with novel eyes again, and said with emotion: “But who didn’t think about it like this when they were young?”
He smiled again and said: “I thought about this when I was young. That was after I decided to specialize in the magical art of spells.”
Scott listened silently as he recalled the past.
“I have made a lot of efforts to summarize and transform the existing magic knowledge. I want to go further on the basis of predecessors and invent new things to shock everyone.”
Professor Flitwick said happily.
“I achieved some results, although I didn’t meet my expectations, but I have been enjoying it. Of course, I am still working hard to this day.”
“You are already one of the most accomplished magic masters.” Scott praised him sincerely.
“But it was not one of the things I ever wanted to do, but the only one. This is the gap between dreams and reality.”
Professor Flitwick looked at Scott seriously.
“It is certainly a good thing for young people to have lofty ideals. I am happy to see my students have dreams that surpass those of their predecessors, but I just want to remind you…”
He became more and more serious in his words.
“You must be mentally prepared to face that kind of gap, don’t lose yourself in your dreams, and don’t let anything affect your soul easily.”
Scott understood Professor Flitwick’s painstaking efforts. He was a little moved and nodded solemnly.
“Professor, can I use magic here?”
He took out his wand and applied to Professor Flitwick.
“Oh, of course.” Professor Flitwick looked at him curiously, “Do you have any results to show me?”
He took out his wand and waved it gently, using a silent spell.
“Okay, that’s it.” He motioned for Scott to start showing, “With me here, of course you can use magic.”
No one else in the cafe noticed the strange behavior of an old man and a young man in this corner.
“I think this is a very valuable achievement.”
Scott said confidently.
He took out a piece of ebony wood from his leather bag and flicked it with his wand.
The ebony wood quickly deformed and turned into a small fairy statue.
Immediately afterwards, Scott used the tip of his wand to carve an ancient magic text on the fairy statue.
That is Sowilo which represents [sun] or [light].
Professor Flitwick watched Scott’s operation curiously without interrupting him.
“Next…”
Scott waved his wand again.
…It was the moment to witness a miracle, he thought silently in his heart.
The originally motionless statue moved and turned into a real little fairy, waving its transparent and sparkling wings and flying up.
“oh!”
Professor Flitwick’s eyes widened.
“This is really…unbelievable…”
He looked at Scott excitedly.
“Never…no wizard has ever done this…” His voice was sharp and stuttering, “You combined ancient runes and transfiguration to transform into a truly magical animal!”
Scott nodded, “I think this has great development prospects, although I can only do it to this simple level now, but…”
He also said with some excitement: “As the transformation skills and ancient magic texts I master become stronger and stronger, and even go one step further and add various magic spells to them, will I be able to transform more powerful magical animals?”
He expressed his vision.
“Theoretically, even magical animals like fire dragons and phoenixes may be born under the tip of my wand! Even… even those powerful creatures in myths that do not exist in reality are possible…”
“This is crazy…” Professor Flitwick muttered.
He shook his head.
“No, don’t think about that yet, Scott.”
He looked at the fairy flying on the table with some obsession.
“Although I am very optimistic about your future, your path should be taken step by step and don’t be anxious.”
“Of course, your suggestion is right.”
Scott said obediently.
He has achieved his goal.
His display this time was of course to further prove his worth in front of Professor Flitwick.
A young wizard like him who was born as a Muggle would not have the help of his family or someone to protect him at all times as he grew up in magic.
In order to obtain these “resources”, he must find another way——
First, talk about the various aspects of Ravenclaw to get closer to Professor Flitwick, the headmaster of Ravenclaw, and then further prove his worth.
These are all actions he took to get the professor’s full training.
Of course, Scott also understood that Professor Flitwick, who was also a smart man, could actually see his “calculation”.
After all, Professor Flitwick is just a kind person, not an honest person.
But it doesn’t matter.
Scott knew that Professor Flitwick wouldn’t care about this. In the eyes of a Ravenclaw, fighting for an opportunity like this was nothing.
