Admiral of Hogwarts

"Wingardium leviosa" Early the next morning, Hugo finished his breakfast hastily and began to study magic. After all, as this was the only opportunity for Muggle students like them to use magic during non-school hours, Hugo would definitely not let it go.

The reason why he chose the Levitation Curse as the magic spell to practice was because this spell did not seem very dangerous. At the same time, according to the content of the original book, this magic was the first magic that young wizards learned after entering Hogwarts. It should be relatively simple in operation.

It's a pity that Hugo hasn't let the chicken feather plucked from the feather duster fly along the wand like in the movie in such a long time since he got the wand home yesterday afternoon, and this time is no exception. Chicken Feather just turned over lazily on the table and then stayed there motionless.

"This is simply..." Because of the failure of more than an hour before, Hugo, who was a little irritated, simply stood up from the table and went to Hermione's room next door to see how she was learning spells. As a result, after opening the door, he was not surprised to see that the feather on Hermione's desk just bounced and fell back to the table.

This scene made Hugo confirm one thing, that is, Hermione is indeed smart, but she is not powerful enough to learn magic to the level of a genius. The reason why you study well is purely because you are willing to study hard.

Just like Hermione said lightly when she met Harry on the train for the first time in the original book, "I have tried a few simple spells at home, just for practice, and they all work."

When Hugo saw this place in his previous life, he thought Hermione was the kind of genius who could use spells after just one look. But now that I think about it, this actually involves countless hard practices. Otherwise, Hermione wouldn't have told Ron in the following Charms class that the additional pronunciation in Charms must be long and clear.

After all, the textbook only contained spells and wand-waving gestures, and only a vague description of voice and intonation. Therefore, if you want to find a method of reciting magic spells that suits you, you need to try repeatedly.

The act of chanting a curse is actually to communicate with the magic power in the wizard's body to release magic. Therefore, when wizards can familiarize themselves with mobilizing the magic power in their bodies, it becomes possible to use magic without chanting a curse. Therefore, the core function of mantras is communication rather than the accuracy of reciting mantras.

For example, in this world Voldemort should be considered one of the best wizards in the world at the Death Curse. However, since he used magic to remove his nose, his pronunciation often has a strong nasal sound, so when he chants the curse, it must be different from the standard chanting method, but this does not weaken the power of the Death Curse in Voldemort's hands.

From this point we can know that although the pronunciation of the spell is important to the release of magic, it is not decisive to a certain extent, and may even have different pronunciations depending on the person.

In other words, the explanation of the magic spell in the textbook can only explain a step similar to the pronunciation added in the floating spell. In order to find the pronunciation that suits you best, a wizard who has learned spells needs to master it bit by bit through repeated practice. There is nothing for opportunism.

The only good thing is that learning magic is just like learning to swim or ride a bicycle. It is more of a basic physical memory than a memory in the brain, so it is difficult to forget once you learn it. Don't worry about spending a lot of effort to learn a certain spell and then all the previous efforts will be in vain because it has not been used for three days.

For the next time, Hugo stayed with Hermione in her room and learned magic. Through mutual discussions and exchanges between two people while studying, the progress of learning suddenly accelerated a lot. By lunchtime they were able to keep the feather aloft for two or three seconds at the command of their wands.

Since Mr. and Mrs. Granger were busy with work today, Hugo and his brother had to cook by themselves at noon. After eating the traditional pasta and feeding the cat, Hugo, who had different ideas from Hermione, returned to the room and started studying alone because Hermione wanted to carry the textbook.

At this time, through the Admiral's network, Hugo learned that Firefly received a letter from Hogwarts last night, and then followed Veneto Hood to Diagon Alley this morning to purchase all the things he needed. Just as he was contacting Veneto and the others, Hu De and Firefly returned to their residence in Whitechapel District from Diagon Alley.

Listening to the chatter of Fireflies on the Admiral's network about his trip to Diagon Alley today, a smile slowly appeared on Hugo's face. Now those ship girls finally have a magic wand in each hand.

Moreover, the wands chosen by the ship girls have one characteristic, that is, they are quite unique in the selection of wand wood. For example, the wand wood used in Hood, Veneto and Belfast is all teak. This is also the wood used for the decks on warships. Destroyers like Firefly do not have wooden decks, so they chose the same ironwood as the shaft bushings of warships.

"Actually, I already have a wand." Firefly muttered quietly, "But Sister Hood said it would be weird if you didn't buy one when everyone else is buying wands, so I bought another one. But I still prefer it. Love that wand of mine."

"Then you can use your own after you enter the school." Hugo comforted Firefly who looked a little angry: "Anyway, the professors at the school don't care which wand you use."

"That's a good idea." Firefly's voice suddenly became happy. "I just put the wand I just bought under the suitcase. I will use my own wand in school."

Soon, Veneto and the others, who had sorted out the things they had bought, joined the admiral's network and started chatting. While chatting, Hugo talked about the problems he had encountered when learning the levitation spell just now.

"Sir, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Veneto said immediately after Hugo finished his question. "Actually, we can learn together through the Admiral Network."

"Isn't the Admiral Network used to contact you spiritually?" Hugo asked curiously. Because the introduction given to him by Shengli before was very general, his use of the Admiral Network is now limited to contacting those ship girls.

"Perhaps what I said was too general at that time." Shengli's apologetic voice rang in Hugo's mind through the Admiral Network. "This soul connection is far more useful than you think."

Under Victory's guidance, Hugo slowly mastered another function of the admiral network: as an admiral, he could use this network built in his soul to share the thinking abilities of all the ship girls in the network. At the same time, all people connected to the network can share the results of research and learning.

In other words, when Hugo's souls are connected, it is equivalent to him using the thinking ability of the ship girl connected to the admiral network to do something together at the same time.

After understanding this usage, he immediately devoted this ability to learning, and found that he could master these unfamiliar magics with unprecedented efficiency.

"Maybe I can finish all the first-grade courses before going to school." Hugo thought happily after successfully directing a book on the table to fly around according to the position pointed by his wand.
