A Chest Grants Transfiguration Mastery
“Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a top-tier academic talent!”
“Ding! The host’s comprehension ability has been greatly enhanced!”
“An academic prodigy’s aptitude? An increase in comprehension?”
Just as Blake began wondering whether this would overlap with his photographic memory, a sensation resembling an electric current suddenly passed through his head.
The tingling sensation soon disappeared.
Then he understood exactly what this new ability did.
It did not conflict with photographic memory.
In fact, the two abilities complemented each other perfectly.
The former gave him an almost limitless memory.
The academic talent, on the other hand, enhanced his ability to think, analyze, and comprehend knowledge.
No matter how complicated the material was, he could quickly grasp the key points.
As long as he received some guidance, he could easily understand the principles behind it, and his learning efficiency would double.
Blake excitedly finished the sweet in his hand in just a few bites.
Hermione truly deserved her reputation as an academic prodigy.
The two chests he had obtained from her had both yielded top-tier abilities related to learning.
This also made him realize that the contents of the chests should be related to the person who provided the emotional reaction.
The shopkeeper on the other side of the counter was busy packing the boxes, occasionally glancing at Blake.
He had absolutely no idea why this child had been sitting there grinning foolishly.
Of course, Blake, who had just made such a huge gain, did not care what anyone else thought.
The ability from the second chest had also left him extremely satisfied.
“Hermione really is a treasure girl…”
Blake couldn’t help sighing inwardly.
And “treasure” wasn’t merely a figure of speech here.
She could genuinely produce treasure chests!
More importantly, the probability of rewards appearing was extremely high.
Blake didn’t delay any longer and soon had the system open the last Silver Chest.
The system immediately complied.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a copy of [Basic Transfiguration Mastery]!”
The smile on Blake’s face immediately froze.
A book?
It wasn’t that books were useless.
But compared with the previous two talents, this reward was clearly much less impressive.
Just as Blake began wondering whether the system had lowered the quality of its rewards, a massive amount of unfamiliar knowledge surged into his mind.
“This is…”
His eyes widened in excitement.
In an instant, he had completely mastered everything contained within [Basic Transfiguration Mastery].
Blake could clearly feel that his understanding of Transfiguration had improved tremendously.
Previously, he could only rely on the knowledge of the story he had seen in his previous life and try to train in magic on his own.
Ordinary spells could still be practiced by referring to their approximate pronunciation.
Transfiguration, however, placed greater emphasis on understanding, concentration, and control.
There was no fixed incantation capable of solving every problem.
So he could only explore it on his own, and his progress was painfully slow.
For many things he didn’t understand, there was no one around to ask, so he could only set them aside for the time being.
But now, all those difficulties had been resolved.
He had officially stepped through the door of Transfiguration.
The questions that had once confused him now all had answers.
At this moment, Blake only wanted to find a quiet place and personally test the new ability he had learned.
He looked back at the shopkeeper, who was still sweating as he organized the goods, and realized he couldn’t wait any longer.
“Could you deliver all these sweets to Marianne Orphanage?”
“There are too many of them. I probably won’t be able to carry them all back by myself.”
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded.
“Of course. No problem.”
Blake had practically bought out the entire shop.
For a customer like this, even though the shop normally didn’t offer delivery, the shopkeeper was willing to make an exception.
Besides, there were so many boxes that one child simply couldn’t carry them all.
“I’ll take the shop’s small delivery van and bring them over.”
The shopkeeper added.
Blake thanked him before eagerly running out of the shop.
He had to find somewhere deserted and properly test his Transfiguration!
…
“Why did I think he was supposed to treat me to the cake?”
“Ah—!”
“That guy was really awful!”
“If he realized I had misunderstood, why did he have to point it out to my face?”
“Didn’t he consider the situation before saying it?”
By the side of the road, hidden behind an inconspicuous bush, Hermione crouched beside a short tree.
She muttered complaints under her breath, trying to ease her embarrassment.
It had really only been a slight misunderstanding.
But under Blake’s deliberate guidance, it had ultimately turned into an incredibly awkward situation.
Hermione simply didn’t have the courage to continue walking along the main road.
She needed to find somewhere secluded and calm down first.
“Enough, Hermione. Stop thinking about what just happened!”
“Delete it from your mind right now!”
“He’s just a Muggle. Once you enter Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, you’ll definitely never see him again!”
“So pull yourself together, Hermione!”
She desperately tried to throw the entire experience out of her mind.
But when she lowered her head, she saw the strawberry cake in her arms.
