Harry Potter's Bastard

Fifth year at Hogwarts is a watershed moment, and as the final year to prepare for the regular wizarding level exams, fifth year is clearly not the same. Students find it more difficult to learn more and more, and with that comes endless homework and extremely compressed personal time.

The vast majority of students simply do not adapt to this intense pace of learning, and their awareness and preparation are still stuck in the early grades, and they do not realize what fifth grade means to them. They also fantasize about how much time they spend each day for personal activities, but reality directly turns their expectations into extravagant expectations.

Every professor is going out of their way to tell them about the importance of this year, and each professor is leaving more difficult courses than in the past, and the assignments left behind are more difficult to complete. They have to spend a lot of time looking up materials and completing assignments in the library.

"You must remember," said the short Professor Flitwick screeched, standing on a pile of books as usual so that he could see the class from the podium, "that these exams may affect your prospects for many years to come! At the same time, in order to ensure that you all perform at your level, I'm afraid we all have to work harder than before!"

At the beginning of the semester, Professor Flitwick began to take the students through the various spells they had learned in the past, as they were all present in the exams, whether they were written exams or practical exercises. They then spent more than an hour reviewing the Flying Charm, which, according to Professor Flitwick, was something they would definitely have in their 0.W.Ls exam. Before class, he assigned a whole bunch of spells as homework as he had never done before.

At this time, Harry began to be grateful to Solim, Hermione, Neville, and other people who had helped him, if it weren't for them, he would definitely practice the Flying Charm at night like the other students, thanks to last year's Triwizard Tournament, Harry's Flying Charm was already very proficient, he didn't need to practice as hard as other students, which saved him valuable time...... Used to complete other assignments.

Professor Flitwick's Charms class was friendly to Harry, but Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class wasn't.

"If you don't study, practice, and apply it seriously," Professor McGonagall said solemnly, "you won't be able to pass 0.W.Ls exam." I don't think there's a reason why all the students in this class can't get a certificate of 0.W.Ls in the transformation class as long as they put in the time and effort they put in. "

Neville sighed in disbelief. His transfiguration skills were so poor that even Solim had given up trying. Transfiguration is very demanding to learn: it requires a wizard to have a good imagination, calculations, and a lot of concentration. This is only necessary to learn Transfiguration, but in addition to that, it takes a lot of time to practice and summarize.

Like some people whose minds are not very flexible, whose minds are more rigid, and whose concentration is not enough, they will not make much progress in the field of Transfiguration by nature. Here's why, if a wizard has good imagination, calculation, and concentration, it's only a matter of time before he becomes powerful.

"Yes, so do you, Longbottom. "There's nothing wrong with you, just a lack of self-confidence." Therefore, today we are going to start learning about the Vanishing Charm. The Vanishing Charm is a bit simpler than the summoning spell you'll normally practice when you're at NE.w.Ts level, but it's still the hardest spell you'll ever have in 0.W.Ls exam. "

Professor McGonagall was right. Harry found the Vanishing Charm to be deadly. By the end of the two lessons, neither he nor Ron had been able to make the snail they had used to practice disappear, though Ron said hopefully that he thought his snail had become a little lighter. Hermione, on the other hand, succeeded in making her snail disappear with just her first spell cast, thanks to her advanced learning from Solim, who had already mastered most of the spells in the Standard Spells series, earning Professor McGonagall a reward for Gryffindor House. She was the only one who didn't have to do homework, and everyone else had to practice the spell overnight, ready to try it on the snails the next afternoon.

With so much homework to complete, Harry and Ron were a little flustered. They spent their lunch in the library looking up what moonstone could do for medicine. Harry had a deep understanding of what Fred and George meant by what they said to him before school started, fifth year can really drive people crazy, you know, this is just the beginning of school, Harry really doesn't know if he can make it to the end of the semester.

People who don't usually work hard need to spend more time and energy to catch up on the knowledge they have left behind, and students like Solim and Hermione don't have the same fuss as other students, they have already mastered this knowledge through hard study when they are playing silly, so they can now look more idle when others are busy.

Of course, idleness is relative. Hermione is still the same, nervous as soon as she prepares for the exam, especially this year is the fifth grade, this girl took out the nervousness of "the exam is still a week away" as soon as school started, and hurried to review.

Solim was the same as usual, but it was probably because he had a lot more time than other students because he was taking one elective course—for example, he didn't have to take a magical biology class.

But Harry couldn't, not to mention Harry wanted to ask Professor Grapeland where Hagrid had gone. As expected, Professor Sprout emphasized the importance of O.W.Ls to them as soon as the class started. He really wanted all the teachers to stop talking about it. Whenever he remembered that he had so much homework to do, he felt restless and nervous, and at the end of class, Professor Sprout had assigned them to write a paper, and Harry's feeling suddenly became stronger.

An hour and a half later, the Gryffindor students were exhausted and smelled of dragon dung, one of Professor Sprout's favorite fertilizers. When they lined up to return to the castle, no one had the heart to talk much. It was another particularly tiring day.

Before dinner began, Angelina approached Harry, who remembered that he had to select the Gryffindor goalkeeper this Friday - which meant that he had to further compress his already scarce time.
