Chapter 112: transfiguration wooden blocks into human organs
This test is very difficult and the participant that can actually make a living organ from a wooden block will be considered a winner. The wooden block is provided as the material because it was the easiest thing to be transfigured into an organ instead of metal.
The difficult level is still high and a graduated from the magic school to even attempt this kind of thing. A person has to practice for some time under a master to do this level of transfiguration.
But the goal of this tournament is not to decided a winner instead it is to find a candidate that has huge potential to join the community of transfiguration specialists. They want to find a genius so the test is too hard.
The 15 candidates have it hard and they tried to use their wand to model the wooden block into various organs that they can imagine. They have to know the internal structure of an organ and many other minute features to make a living organ.
So they did not restrict in the choice of the organ that the candidate wanted to transfigure from the wooden block. Actually it is difficult for Jack too. He is not someone that is from the medical background to know everything about an organ.
Even though he has many memories of transfigurations and even the muscle memory, transfiguration requires strong and deep imaginative capabilities. Creating something like a working human organ is a very difficult thing even for him.
In the organs Jack chose the heart. His target is to not to let it live for days but to let it live for few seconds and beat few times before stopping. Human heart is very important thing and a complicated thing to transfigure.
Also beating human heart is even harder to make. Jack immediately started and spent an entire 10 minutes on transfiguring a wooden block into the shape of a heart. Then he generated a small electric impulse to stimulate the heart to start beating.
Others chose to do other body organs like eyes, liver.... After 10 minutes Jack made the beating heart and it worked for a total of 39 seconds before stopping. Jack simply presented this as his work.
After that other people also transfigured their wooden blocks into various organs. Based on the usage values, fatality value and few other values like future potential and time limit of making the heart, a decision is made.
Jack directly won the first place. The second place is actually a girl that made kidneys still in working condition. They worked for 4 minutes and 16 seconds and the time took to make it is 14 minutes. It was magically tested.
Third place is the boy that made the liver that worked for 2 minutes and 34 seconds and the time took to make it is 28 minutes. But Jack was given first place is because of the heart he made.
It can earn a person precious 39 seconds of life even if their heart is busted by a spell or an accident. This is really wonderful and the potential that Jack possess for the future. This let him won the first place directly.
Jack was awarded with the prize along with the membership as a seeded candidate for the transfiguration society. Here Jack can learn new methods and tricks that most of the times cause failure.
Understanding the cause of failure or the point of failure is more useful than learning new techniques most of the times. In this transfiguration society he would be able to learn that. After few procedures and talks with other amiable candidates.
That is the girl from Vietnam that came in second place did not show any arrogance. She is much more graceful and easy to talk to the arrogant man from the third place. Her name Hien and she is from Vietnam.
After exchanging the contact information Jack left with professor Mcgonagall. Professor Mcgonagall is quite proud of her disciple. She is a high ranking member in the transfiguration society.
So it was a matter of prestige to have a good disciple. When Jack showed his skill as her student, she was proud with all the praises from all people from the interests group of the transfiguration society. Jack was taken to the Diagon alley.
"Jack you have won the first place and made me proud as your teacher. Tell me what you want and I will buy them for you in this happy moment."
Jack smiled and then asked for some special materials from the experiments he is conducting related to magic cards. Even though he has some the materials are expensive and could not buy in bulk.
Also higher level materials are more costly. Like the bones of a dragon, the horn of unicorn, fairy wings griffin nails… Right now what Jack wanted is the scales and pearl of merfolk. They cannot be brought through legal means because they are prohibited items.
But there are still ways to get them. That is through the black market and other shady places that sell things illegally. The expression on the face of professor Mcgonagall changed a little as she did not like to deal with this kind of things and people.
Jack quickly explained about his experiments about magic cards in low voice with a magic noise cancelation ward around them. Then he took out a magic card about levitation and explained how to use this magic card to professor Mcgonagall.
When she used the card to levitate few plates on the table without waving her wand, she was shocked. Her eyes were shining like stars. Then Jack told her that the professor Dumbledore also knows about this matter.
"Professor Mcgonagall, these cards are not easy to make. There are many problems that needed to be addressed like the amount of magic, the structure of magic… So I need strong and more magical materials to solve this problem…."
