Arms dealer from Hogwarts

Chapter 139 Buckbeak (Two in One)

Sybill Trelawney.

A descendant of the famous fortune teller Cassandra Trelawney.

There is also a legend about her ancestor. It is said that because she offended Apollo, the prophecy she uttered was always true, but no one believed it.

Sometimes Jamini felt that these gods in the myth were really narrow-minded, and that if people offended him, they would make life worse than death.

How can you be as generous as yourself?You have always kowtowed to me, and this matter is over...

As soon as Gryffindor's divination class was over, Jamie heard from the big-mouthed Seamus that Harry had been predicted badly.

It is said that Harry's tea form is a big black dog.

In fact, the divination taught by Trelawney is relatively reliable. The big black dog that Harry’s tea dregs piled up is indeed related to him, but it’s not unknown, it’s Sirius...

Judging from the expression on Harry's face when he talked to Jemini afterwards, he should have thought of this too.

In fact, in Jemini's view, if Trelawney had some confidence in her own abilities, she would be able to control some prophetic abilities to some extent.

But the crux of the problem is that she doesn't even have confidence in herself, which makes her live like a blind fortune-teller under the bridge every day. Except for a few silly girls with some brain problems, no one wants to believe her.

Of course, if people knew that she made a prophecy between Harry and Voldemort, they might have a different attitude. After all, the entire Harry Potter series was born because of a prophecy made by this woman who was full.

But although it sounds awesome to say it, Jemini didn't take the divination class...

He took Numerology as an elective.

Compared with Trelawney's divination class, digital divination is the mainstream divination method in the magic world. Wizards like Trelawney who are born with the ability to predict without using anything are rare even in the magic world Yes, the number may not be as many as Fire Dragon.

Things like tarot, crystal balls, and tea leaves with blurred prediction results are probably only used by Trelawney. Even if other people get some omens, they often suffer from blurred images. And perceptual interpretation leads to distortion of prophecy.

Therefore, in most cases, most wizards in the magic world use digital divination to calculate some possibilities in the future, such as those human wizards in Gringotts. This is also the difference between digital divination and conventional divination. reason for class.

As it turns out, Jemini isn't very good at sentimental stuff like divination.

After one class, he counted loneliness.

At this point, Jemini gave up the ability of divination, planning to get a good evaluation in the final exam and be satisfied.

He is not Hermione's kind of person who is obsessed with learning. Strictly speaking, Jemini's good grades are only because he is smart enough, studies seriously, and has enough interest. But if he is not crazy and survives like Hermione, then Forget it, he can't stand it.

At noon, after lunch, Jemini strolled all the way to the outside of the castle. He was going to attend his first Magical Beast Protection class in his life, and the teacher was Hagrid.

Jemini is still quite curious about the protection of magical animals. For example, when he saw where the magical animals are in his previous life, he imagined that if he also had a Nixie, a Moon Crazy Beast, a Bird Snake, a Bowtruckle, or a Zouwu How good should it be...

These little things are so cute, this is the pet that a macho should keep!

Although Hedwig is pretty good, but just like money and women, who would think they have too many pets?
Unfortunately, Hogwarts does not pay much attention to magical animals. For example, this course is only offered in the third grade, and it will become an elective course in the future.

The light gray sky outside the castle looks a bit gloomy. Jamie doesn't like this kind of weather very much. Whether it's rainy or sunny, he thinks it's better than this kind of gray weather. Come and see, the sun will come out soon.

The lawn is wet underfoot and springy to step on.

When Jamie came, he happened to meet the Gryffindor students.

Hagrid was already waiting for them at the door of his hut, wearing his moleskin coat as always, with Fang the Hound standing at his feet, seemingly eager to go.

"Come on, come on! Hurry up!" Seeing the students coming, Hagrid said loudly, "I have something good to show you today. This class is wonderful! Is everyone here? OK, come with me!"

As Hagrid said, he turned around and led them around the edge of the Forbidden Forest, which disappointed Jemini a little. He thought he was going inside the Forbidden Forest.

He led the students to a paddock. There was nothing in the paddock, but Jemini knew what this class was going to be about. If nothing else, it should be Hippogriff.

"Everyone gather around this fence." Hagrid yelled, "Yes - make sure you can see, well, first you need to open your textbooks -"

"How to open it?" Draco looked at Hagrid with some annoyance.

"Forehead?"

"How do we open the textbook?" Draco emphasized, and impatiently threw out the "Monster Book of Monsters" tied with a rope.

The students behind Draco were also holding their textbooks awkwardly, not knowing what to do. Some of the books in their hands were tied up with ropes, some were caught in big clamps, and some were caught under their arms and strangled tightly. with.

"You—none of you managed to open the textbook?" Hagrid asked, somewhat disappointed.

"I opened it." Jamie stood in front with the book, turned to look at everyone: "First, you have to gently stroke the spine of the book, it will become tame, and then you can open it."

As he spoke, Jemini stroked the spine of the book lightly, and then opened the book.

"That's right! That's great, Jamie! Five points for Slytherin! Just do what Jamie said." Hagrid said cheerfully, looking at the students.

"Oh, how stupid we all are—" Draco glanced lazily at Hagrid, and said in a strange way: "They should be petting them, why didn't we guess?"

"I... think they're fun," Hagrid muttered uncomfortably.

"I also think it's very interesting. Sometimes this book will be more anxious, and I will want to bite your hand and hum while you are reading." Jamie's voice suddenly sounded: "At this time, you only need to Punch it a few times—”

Jemini said, casting a casual glance at Draco, who wisely shut his mouth.

Hagrid gave Jamie a grateful look, and Jamie shrugged with a chuckle.

"Okay, now that you all have your textbooks, now... What you need now are Fantastic Beasts, wait a minute, I'll bring them right away, wait a minute..."

Hagrid said, walking towards the Forbidden Forest with big strides.

Draco snorted: "Such an idiot is required to teach...I think Hogwarts..."

Jemini glanced at him, and Draco shut his mouth.

"The ruler is short and the inch is long. Everyone has his own value and ability." Jemini shook his head lightly: "Even you can enter the team."

Draco: "..."

What's wrong with me?What's wrong with me?What do you mean I can be in the team?
After thinking about it, Draco felt that there was no need to argue with Jemini on this kind of issue. We are all classmates, so it's not easy to hurt the peace, right?
So Draco looked at Jemini and nodded sincerely: "You're right!"

"Ooooh!" Lavender Brown yelled, pointing across the paddock.

Jemini turned his head and saw a dozen huge and weird animals trotting towards them across the paddock.

They have the body, hind legs and tail of a horse, but their front legs, wings and head are like those of an eagle, and their sharp beaks glow with metallic luster, making them look majestic and daunting.

"Hippogriffs!" Hagrid yelled, waving at the students, pulling the big iron chains, urging the hippogriffs towards the students, and chaining them to the on the fence.

"If it was Professor Kettleburn's class, you would never see these big guys. These big guys can send him away with just a kick."

Jagini chuckled: "In England, only Hagrid can take this kind of class. At the same time, he is also the only person in the whole of England who has the ability to tame thestrals. How about it? Doesn't it feel amazing to say that?"

"Yeah yeah..." Draco nodded.

He didn't try to be perfunctory to Jemini, he really listened to what Jemini said seriously, and at the same time he felt that Hagrid was very powerful from the bottom of his heart.

Although he is a little different from usual, it may be because he is more frank when facing Jemini.

"Look, they're pretty, aren't they?" Hagrid walked towards the students with an excited look on his face.

"Yeah..." Jemini nodded, "Can I raise one?"

"Ha, of course you can, of course Jamie!" Hagrid laughed, "But I suggest you finish the course about them before you think about those."

As he spoke, he rubbed his big hands together, and said with a smile, "If you want to get closer..."

Except for Jemini who was very close, and Harry, Ron and Hermione who were next to him tentatively approaching, everyone else was far away.

"Okay, that's enough, don't get any closer." Hagrid picked up Jemini and put him back on the fence, and the three of Harry also stopped by the fence.

Hagrid didn't dare let the students get close to the hippogriff before they knew about it, he was afraid they would hurt the students.

He didn't dare to let Jemini get close, he was afraid that Jemini would hurt them.

"Okay, about the Hippogriff, the first thing you need to know is that they are very proud and lose their temper easily, so don't humiliate it, or you may die, understand?"

"Yes..." Jamie nodded.

"Be sure to wait for the hippogriff to move first." Hagrid continued. "It's polite, understand? You walk up to it and bow, and if it bows to you, you can touch it , if it doesn't bow, you should get away from it quickly, those claws can hurt people."

"Okay—who wants to go first?"

"I'll do it!" Jemini raised his hand: "If you succeed, you can ride it, right?"

Hagrid hesitated for a moment, and glanced around, as if asking: Is there no one else?

Harry, who was worried about Hagrid's bad class, saw Jemini raised his hand, and gave up the idea of ​​giving Hagrid the first class.

"Well, of course, you can ride."

Hagrid looked at Jemini with some concern: "If... I mean if--if they don't bow to you, you don't go any further, you know?"

"Ok."

"Okay..." Hagrid said gruffly, and untied a chain: "Let's see how you deal with Buckbeak."

He pulled the livid hippogriff away from its companions and removed its leather collar, and the students on the other side of the paddock seemed to hold their breath.

Draco even covered his mouth. He was afraid that he would interfere with Jamie, which would cause Jemini to not be able to ride the hippogriff. Maybe Jemini would pull his head off and feed it to the hippogriff. Those big guys are used to restore the friendship between them.

"Is your name Buckbeak?"

Jemini stepped forward, looking at Buckbeak with clear eyes.

Buckbeak turned his big pointed head, and stared straight at Jemini with his big, fierce orange eyes.

"I...need to bow?" Jemini asked.

"No... right?" Hagrid looked at Buckbeak in surprise.

Before Jemini could bow, Buckbeak lowered his haughty head first, bent his scaly front knees, and made an unmistakable bowing posture.

Hagrid looked at Buckbeak in surprise. The first time he saw Buckbeak, he would bow first. Even when he first came into contact with him, this never happened.

Of course, Hagrid's point of view is completely different from Buckbeak's point of view.

There is a saying called beast-like intuition. Many animals, including humans, sometimes feel uneasy, panic, and fear before danger comes. This ability is extremely strong in wild animals.

And it is even stronger in wild magical animals.

The Hippogriff is undoubtedly a very arrogant monster, but it depends on who it faces.

When facing monsters like fire dragons and chimeras, they will not reveal their shortcomings of arrogance, and they will even be as reserved as they want.

And when facing Jemini, it's not bad. The fear and fear that come from the body's instinct cannot be faked.

In addition, they can distinguish each other's emotions from the eyes of each other, such as respect and friendship.

Jemini's eyes showed curiosity. Although there were also emotions such as closeness and friendliness, but a fire dragon stared at him curiously. No one would be happy about this kind of thing.

Seeing Buckbeak bow, Jemini also bowed slightly in return.

"So it's the other way around?" Ron looked at Harry and muttered in a low voice, "Hagrid is actually teaching those eagle horses again?"

Harry didn't speak, and elbowed Ron to signal him to shut up. Neither Hippogriff nor Jemini could be offended by the two of them.

"Great, you made it, b...Jamini!"

Hagrid exclaimed excitedly.

"So I can ride it now?"

"Of course!" Hagrid said, taking a step forward and putting Jemini on Buckbeak's back with two arms. "Be careful not to pluck his feathers."

Immediately afterwards, he patted Buckbeak on the buttocks. Buckbeak immediately raised his two front paws and let out a cry like a horse.
