Chapter 518 Back to School Day

The migration of the centaur clan in the Forbidden Forest is undoubtedly a major event, but no matter how major it is, it cannot be greater than the event that the Dark Lord is wiped out again. For everyone, the latter is a great event that should be celebrated by the entire British wizarding community.

But even at the top of the heap, Hogwarts is still a school of wizardry. What is the focus of the school? Of course, it is the study of a large number of young wizards, isn't it?

No matter what those outsiders think, at least Professor McGonagall is focusing on the students.

...Today is Back to School Day. Starting today, Hogwarts prohibits random entry and exit of unrelated people. Because Maca pointed to the somewhat empty vestibule and asked, Hagrid explained to him Said, This is what Professor McGonagall meant, and it was actually implemented.

So that's the case. Maca nodded suddenly.

If he hadn't left Hogwarts in the first place, now he, like Harry and the others, would have to make final preparations for the upcoming O. exam. But he didn't expect that he has become a professor at Hogwarts now.

It's just that when he thought of this, he couldn't help but struggle for a while.

Speaking of which, his professor was not actually in the establishment of Hogwarts, but was directly dispatched by the Education Department of the International Federation of Wizards. If you have to get to the bottom of it, he is actually an expatriate faculty member of Durmstrang College.

And this so-called expatriation, although there was no fixed time limit at that time, according to the regulations, there was a dispatch period of 1 to 2 school years.

In other words, even if there is a little more delay, at most it will be just when Hermione and others graduate from the seventh grade. If it is the least, in fact, he only needs to stay until next year before he can leave.

Now that Maca thought of this matter, he couldn't help thinking about it secretly.

After all, besides accompanying Luna at Hogwarts, he has nothing serious to do now. And just a few potion sales outlets in the black market alone are enough for him to find a place to live, and then study magic and enjoy life with peace of mind.

Maybe after more than ten years, Voldemort will come out again to do harm to the world. However, when that time came, he was fully confident that he could smash the Dark Lord's little head alone with his staff.

Since this was the case, would he continue to develop his unqualified teaching career at Hogwarts?

... Maca, there seems to be something wrong with the Flobber caterpillars I raised recently, do you want to visit me later?

Hagrid's words made him take back the thoughts that had spread out all at once.

Well, after all, Dumbledore indirectly 'handed' Hogwarts into my hands, and he didn't just care about Voldemort's life or death. Professor McGonagall, the acting principal, has become quite handy with all kinds of school affairs after going through a period of shocking training. But even so, if there is no powerful wizard like Dumbledore in charge, it will inevitably lose a little weight in the eyes of other big shots.

Just like the decision to prohibit irrelevant people from entering and leaving at will, if there is no Maca who has just shown his strength, it may attract resistance from the Ministry of Magic.

Flobber caterpillars? Maca asked curiously, What's wrong? Are they sick?

No, no. Hagrid shook his head. They are very good! Don't talk about being sick, they crawled into the field in the backyard with great energy yesterday afternoon... But the strangeness is here, you see, now But winter!

Maca knew what Hagrid meant. It is said that the weather is so cold, those Flobber caterpillars are either hibernating or freezing to death, and they may not be able to tell the difference between the dead and the alive, so how can they crawl around randomly? ? Those ten-inch-long 'fat' bugs are actually relatively easy to die, so their reproductive ability is particularly strong.

And what's more interesting is that I saw that the little guys were full of energy, so I tried to feed them something to eat.

You know, they never eat in winter...but guess what? They ate a lot!

Hagrid was very interested in any kind of magical animal, even this Flobber 'caterpillar', which was extremely uninteresting to keep. Of course, what he loves the most are those strong and dangerous guys like fire dragons.

At this moment, he talked about the 'caterpillar', but he was equally enthusiastic and couldn't stop at all.

... Maca, look at them like that, I think it's very problematic! He said seriously, I guess! They may have some kind of mutation—become able to adapt to the cold! This is a very interesting things.

Luna is also a fan of Fantastic Beasts, she likes those mysterious creatures. Some exist, some do not exist, it is impossible to say. But she also liked ordinary creatures, so she was fascinated when she heard Hagrid talking with great interest.

Okay! Maca said with a smile, I'll go to your place later to have a look—

I'm going too! Luna said in a trance, The mutation of Flobber's caterpillar...that sounds good!

You have to prepare for the exam. Maca kindly reminded, If you do well in the exam, it will be very helpful to find a job related to magical creatures in the future. At that time, you will have more opportunities To discover new magical creatures and learn more about them.

Oh—yes, Luna thought for a while, then nodded slightly, More magical creatures.

...

When Maca and Luna were chatting casually with Hagrid at the school gate, Harry and the others were staggering on the knight bus, even the wizard robes carefully ironed by Mrs. Weasley and Lena Crumpled.

They didn't Apparate directly to Hogsmeade, because neither Ron nor Ginny had ridden the Knight Bus before, and they'd always wanted to try it. Of course, Hermione hasn't ridden one either, although she doesn't really want to experience it.

In one corner of the carriage, Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat on a bench, seemingly trying to unite against the bus as it sprinted wildly. Not to mention, the effect was really good, at least they were not thrown around in the carriage like other passengers.

Fred and George were quite used to this crazy-cow-like bus, but they yelled loudly and bumped from one end to the other, making the bus even more chaotic.

...I was reading the book that Dumbledore left me before I went to bed the other night. Harry said to Ron and Hermione beside him while shaking his body with the swaying of the carriage , It's really just a storybook about the three adventures of Godric Gryffindor.

I've heard you say it last night, you can tell it to Hermione. Ron said, took out a stack of cards from his pocket, and carefully flipped through them one by one.

Before getting into the car, he was the most excited one - even more 'excited' than his two twin brothers. But even though Harry had already told him how he felt on the bus, he still underestimated the horror of the Knight Bus.

Now he has no interest in this broken car at all, so he simply took out the chocolate frog cards he collected and started dealing with the famous wizards on the cards.

Hermione, I never thought that Gryffindor would be so powerful!

Ron seemed to have heard enough, but Harry could still tell Hermione from the beginning. He wasn't very curious about the storybook at first, but after several days of reading experience, he almost became a Gryffindor fan.

He's so powerful— Harry said to Hermione, the first story in that book is about him getting the Gryffindor sword.

I know, Hermione said of course, Godric Gryffindor commissioned the goblin king at that time to forge a magic sword made of sterling silver. But the goblin king was making After coming out, he fell in love with it immediately - he thought it was the best thing he forged in his life! So he sent a team of goblins to try to get the sword from Gryffindor Stealing it back... This incident was one of the reasons for the goblin rebellion 600 years later.

The reason for the goblin's rebellion? Harry asked in surprise, Really?

He vaguely remembered that he had seen something about goblin rebellion in his history of magic homework, but he had never liked that boring subject, so he didn't remember very clearly.

I think you should memorize it! Hermione said angrily, This question will definitely be passed in the O. exam. I think you should be mentally prepared.

My God! Harry moaned, covering his face, don't mention the exam, I have a headache... But, how does that connect with the goblin rebellion? Don't those goblins still Want to get back the Gryffindor sword?

Of course I did! Don't you know? Hermione spread her hands and said, The goblin always feels that if a wizard gives something made by a goblin to someone else, he won't pay the maker a gold fee. Garen's words are basically no better than stealing.

As she spoke, the carriage swung violently to the right, forcing her to retract her outstretched arms, and firmly grasped the metal railing on the carriage wall.

Hmm... is that so? I have to keep it in mind before it actually shows up on the test paper! Harry said after a few words, and then he said again, But my favorite is Gryffindor Back off the part about the goblins, and he enchanted the goblins to go back and tell their king—”

...he said, 'If Ragnac dares to do such a thing again, I will use this sword forged by him to kill him and all his subjects!'

Harry imitated that confident and powerful tone, excitedly: That sounds really cool!

...That's too reckless. Hermione pursed her lips and said, Also, don't you think it's a little too much to say 'kill them all'...Did Gryffindor really say such a thing?
