97 Want To Play Quidditch(1)

"Although you have to restrain yourself,

An ordinary broom can also be used.

But I still hope that you can fly freely.

The brooms on the market right now definitely cannot meet this requirement.

So, you have to give this application I wrote to Professor Dumbledore.

And … you should know that Professor Dumbledore is also a master of alchemy.

So I am sure he will get you a broom that is suitable for you."

Professor Sprout said.

Blake looked at the application in his hand.

"Are you sure Professor Dumbledore will really agree?

"Don't worry, he will definitely agree."

Walking out of Professor Sprout's office,

Blake held the application that Professor Sprout wrote for him.

He directly walked in the direction of the principal's office.

After all, logically speaking,

First-year wizards were not allowed to participate in the Quidditch competition.

They couldn't even hold a broom and fly.

So this matter really had to be applied for.

Blake, on the other hand, needed a special broom...

Given Blake's relationship with Professor Dumbledore,

Professor Sprout thought that

Professor Dumbledore would definitely help him solve it.

Blake was actually not opposed to joining the Quidditch team.

Or rather,

Joining the Quidditch team was only one of his plans at the moment.

But he didn't expect that

It would happen so fast.

He originally planned to do it step by step.

He would only participate in the player selection when he was in his second year.

After all, he had to show off in front of the whole school.

The number of treasure chests he would obtain would definitely be extremely impressive!

Since this time it was a coincidence.

He had to bring forward his plan.

Blake didn't plan to give up.

And coincidentally,

Because he flew at high speed just now

His flying ability experience skyrocketed.

(AN//: No pun intended)

When Blake was intercepted by Ms. Hooch,

His flying skill experience bar was only a little bit away from the beginner proficiency level.

And this was only his first time flying.

If he could get his own broom.

And fly a few laps without any restrictions.

Then it would be too easy for his flying skill to level up.

Proficiency in this kind of skill would be much easier to level up than proficiency in a major subject like alchemy.

Not long after,

Blake arrived in front of the Dripping Stone Beast.

Behind the stone beast was Dumbledore's office.

"Password."

The Dripping Stone Beast said in a muffled voice.

"Sweet Sweet candy."

"Wrong password."

"Hiss … You've changed your tastes so quickly?"

"Then … Snow Lemon?"

"Wrong password … But Dumbledore told me to let you in.

As the guardian stone beast outside the principal's room,

Sometimes, it was to help the principal fend off people he didn't want to see.

As for Blake …

Naturally, he was not included in this list.

In the principal's office.

When Blake pushed the door open and came in.

Just then, he saw a person walking out from inside.

His complexion didn't look very good.

Or it could be said that his complexion had never been good.

His signature aquiline nose.

And that greasy hair.

Blake recognized him at a glance.

This was Professor Snape.

He had yet to attend the Potions class.

Therefore, this was the first time they had met at such a close distance.

"So … you're the one who told Professor Dumbledore.

The little wizard.

Who noticed that I was watching Quirrell?"

Blake glanced at Dumbledore in surprise.

You sold me out just like that?

You should have just reminded him to be careful when he was watching.

Why did you mention me?

Are you trying to make him hate me?

Snape took in Blake's expression.

Then, he swung his long black robe.

He left the principal's office.

"Professor … You, you … You …"

Dumbledore sighed.

"I did not mention it. He just guessed it.

I only told him to be careful because even some students noticed that he was watching Quirrell.

Then he guessed it.

After all, he is a clever person.

The only student who comes to my place often.

Was only you."

Blake was stunned.

It seemed that the Potions class on Friday afternoon …

He couldn't escape Snape's punishment.

How could he escape after offending the old bat?

'Stop Overthinking!' 

"So, what did you do today?"

"Professor, can you actually do something good for me?"

Blake took out Professor Sprout's application form.

He handed it to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore stood next to the table.

He grabbed a cockroach cluster treat and stuffed it into his mouth.

He looked at the application form.

Blake looked at the box of cockroaches.

Although he knew that it was a delicious-tasting type of candy,

It still couldn't arouse his appetite at all.

He always felt that there might be a few real cockroaches mixed in it.

"Ooh … It's my fault for neglecting it."

Dumbledore put down the application.

"Your magic even blew up wands.

How can a broom be avoided?

Fortunately, I can solve this problem.

You just need to get a modified magical flying broom …

Since I am also a master alchemist, and I know your situation very well,

 I can help you solve this problem!"

Blake looked at Dumbledore.

"So … you … you agreed right away?"

"What?"

"You agreed to let me join the Quidditch team!"

"Of course!

Why not? 

First-year students are not allowed to have flying brooms and participate in Quidditch games.

It's for the safety of the freshmen.

But according to Professor Sprout.

You can already fly at that speed.

You can still grasp the direction steadily and land smoothly.

I think you have enough ability to protect yourself.

So, why would I not agree?

I will get you a good broom as soon as possible.

You have to believe in some of my connections and my alchemy skills."

Then.

Blake was coaxed out of the principal's office by Dumbledore while he was still in a daze.

Professor Dumbledore also urged him to complete Nico Lemour's test as soon as possible.

He thought he would have to explain to Dumbledore about it.

Maybe he could even get a treasure chest from Dumbledore or something.

But Dumbledore was very calm.

It was as if he was prepared for all of Blake's actions.

"Shouldn't calmness be an emotion?

Excessive calmness. Shouldn't you give me a treasure chest too?"

The system was silent …

"This system is indeed buggy."

Blake muttered to himself as he left the principal's office.

There was only one class, the flying one, in the afternoon.

Because Blake was kicked out early.

So, he had an extra free afternoon.

Blake first went to the Room of Requirements.

To take care of his magical plants.

In the Room of Requirements,

He had already planted all the seeds that Cassandra gave him.

He took turns strengthening these plants every day.

It was quite time-consuming.

After the strengthening,

He took out a lot of food.

He ate to replenish his strength and magic.

He then read the manuscript that Nico Lemay had sent over.

It had to be said.

The knowledge recorded was indeed very profound.

You could tell from the fact that Nico Lemay had sent over a manuscript of this calibre.

Indeed, he did not underestimate Blake.

The test given was also extremely difficult.

However, this was a great gift.

Although the speed of learning this book was very slow at the beginning,

Blake was always paying attention to his alchemy experience!
