Chapter 351 More Importantly...
After talking about Fish's white tiger form, it was Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore's turn to explain the cat's doubts.
"Minerva, before Fish fell asleep, he saw a ghost-like Fawkes. What kind of cat was that?"
(●ω●)
Fish tugged on Professor McGonagall's robe and asked curiously.
Although he knew that the phoenix was summoned by Dumbledore, and that Dumbledore knew that he was lying, Professor McGonagall was still kept in the dark, so he still had to pretend to be ignorant.
"Oh, that's the Patronus Spell. It's a very advanced spell. It's one of the most powerful and ancient defensive spells that survive today, and it's very effective against Dementors."
Professor McGonagall patted the cat's head out of habit and replied with a smile.
"Minerva can also meow?"
Fish doesn't care about being effective against dementors. What he cares about is whether Professor McGonagall can also summon that troublesome phoenix. This is related to whether he will be caught off guard when he challenges her in the future. key.
"certainly."
Professor McGonagall didn't expect that what the little cat was thinking about at this time was to prepare for the next challenge, so she answered Fish's question unsuspectingly, and as usual, took the opportunity to teach Fish some extra lessons. knowledge.
"Many wizards can only cast a formless patron saint, which can only provide limited protection. It does not have the powerful defense and combat effectiveness of a patron saint with a complete form, and the patron saints summoned by different wizards also have different different."
Professor McGonagall pulled out her wand and gave Fish a demonstration.
"Call the gods to protect you!"
A ball of silver-white light erupted from the tip of Professor McGonagall's staff, and soon condensed into a silver-white kitten.
Because the Patronus is made entirely of light, there are no patterns on its body, but judging from its appearance, it should be the same tabby cat as her Animagus and Fish.
Under the control of Professor McGonagall, the cat patronus flew up and hovered in front of Fish.
"Meow! A flying cat!"
(●ω●)
Fish looked at the silver-white cat in front of him with bright eyes, stretched out his fingers and poked it gently twice. There was a strange touch on his fingertips, a bit like what Aunt Molly had given him before. That kind of sticky toffee.
Then the kitten tried to squeeze the cat's paw again, and found that the cat was not as weak as it looked, and had a very strong body.
"Minerva~Fish wants to learn this, meow!"
(●ω●)
If Fish was paying attention to the Patronus before and was just preparing to challenge Professor McGonagall in the future, then now he is really interested in this spell.
How could he not be interested in a "cat" that could be summoned at will, could fly, and help fight? !
"It's not easy to practice this spell. It may be more difficult than when you first practiced the transformation spell."
Professor McGonagall warned in advance that although Fish had always mastered magic spells very quickly, the Patronus Charm was different after all, and many powerful wizards might not be able to use it.
"Feishu is not afraid of hard work! And Feishu is smart, so he will definitely learn how to cat!"
(●ΦωΦ●)
The little kitten, who had never had any difficulty in learning spells, answered confidently.
"Okay," Professor McGonagall touched Fish's head, "We'll start practicing this spell tomorrow."
"Why does Meow have to wait until tomorrow? Fish wants to learn Meow now."
ω
"You have transformed into a tiger and fought with dementors today, so you should take a good rest." Professor McGonagall felt sorry for his cat cub and persuaded him: "Practice the Patronus Charm, which is very energy-consuming. You have to take a good rest today." It’s not too late to take a day off and be energetic enough to study again tomorrow.”
"Oh well……"
Fish rubbed his belly. After being reminded by Professor McGonagall, he found that he seemed a little hungry again.
…
The next day, Fish climbed out of bed early. He turned around and looked at Harry, who was still sleeping soundly, and hesitated a little.
The kitten really wants to run to Professor McGonagall right away to learn how to become a flying cat, but he still has the job of protecting Harry Potter...
However, in the recent period, Sirius Black has not been seen at all, so Fish has been a little impatient for a long time. Plus, there is something else going on today...
How about leaving Harry alone today?
So what if Blake shows up at this moment?
The kitten still thought hesitantly.
"Yes meow!"
∑(●⊙△⊙●)
Fish suddenly thought of a good idea.
Since Harry is so afraid of dementors, wouldn't it be nice to let him learn the Patronus Charm with him?
So the little cat quickly got out of bed, ran to Harry's bedside, and pushed him awake.
"Um...what's wrong?"
As soon as the sleepy Harry opened his eyes, he saw a vague figure standing beside his bed.
Although he couldn't see clearly the face of the person standing at the head of the bed without his glasses, the twitching cat ears on top of Fish's head were very easy to recognize.
"Fish? What happened?"
Harry asked doubtfully, while he found his glasses from the bedside, put them on, and sat up.
"Fish made an agreement with Minerva today to learn the Patronus Charm. Harry wants to meow with him?"
(●ω●)
The anxious little cat skipped a long paragraph of explanation that he thought was unnecessary and asked directly.
"Patronus? What is that?"
Harry, who had just woken up, was still a little confused. After being asked so confusingly by Fish, he became even more confused.
"Minerva said that it was a spell that could deal with Dementors." Fish explained, "It was the silver-white phoenix that Albus summoned yesterday... Oh, Harry, you were already unconscious at the time, so you may not have seen it."
The little cat accidentally stabbed Harry again.
Harry's expression was a little embarrassed, but he quickly turned his attention back to the Patronus.
"A spell that can deal with Dementors? Can I learn it too?"
Harry was also very distressed about his complete lack of resistance when facing Dementors. Now that he knew there was a way to deal with them, he naturally wanted it.
"It should be okay... Isn't Minerva's job to teach us spells meow?"
ω
Fish tilted his head, not thinking there would be any problem with taking Harry to learn magic. He just reminded him: "But Minerva said that spell is difficult to learn, and many adults can't learn it meow."
Obviously, this kind of problem is impossible to bother Harry, a Gryffindor.
"Let's go!"
Harry quickly got out of bed and changed his clothes. He couldn't wait to learn the Patronus Charm.
So the two of them walked out of the dormitory together without waking up others and went downstairs.
"Fish, wait a minute."
After reaching the second floor, Harry called the kitten who was still walking downstairs.
"What's wrong meow?"
ω
Fish turned around and asked in confusion.
"Aren't we going to find Professor McGonagall to learn the Patronus Charm?" Harry pointed in the direction of Professor McGonagall's office, "Her office should be over there, right?"
Then he saw a surprised expression on Fish's face.
"Don't you want to eat breakfast, meow?"

According to the setting in HP, the Patronus Charm should be a very difficult spell to learn, but in the later period, almost everyone in the protagonist's camp has one, and even Umbridge, who has poor actual combat ability, can summon a Patronus, which is quite different from the original setting...
I guess Rowling herself has forgotten this setting.
If you really want to force an explanation, it's not impossible. It's probably because the students are still young, their thoughts are not as complicated as adults, and their happiness is purer and simpler, so it's easier to summon a Patronus.
As for Umbridge, it's probably because she will be very happy as long as she can get power...┑( ̄Д ̄)┍
So, the purer the person, the faster they learn the Patronus Charm.
