Master Druid at Hogwarts

Chapter 624 Grapp

"She's gone back to the castle." Hagrid walked quickly to the window, opened the curtain a crack, and whispered after looking at it for a while.

Only then did Harry and Ron lift off the invisibility cloak on their bodies.

"The Ministry of Magic is indeed monitoring all the wizards who are close to Dumbledore." Harry said worriedly, "Otherwise Umbridge wouldn't have mentioned the mountain. They must have found you in the mountain."

"It's very likely that the Death Eaters you met at the giants told the Ministry of Magic," Ron added.

Hermione was concerned with another question, "Um... Hagrid, what are you going to have us do in class?" she asked.

"You also heard what Umbridge said? She will definitely try her best to drive you out of Hogwarts."

"That's right!" Harry was startled, "In fact, she was already doing it when you weren't around!"

"Oh, don't worry, I've prepared a bunch of content," Hagrid said enthusiastically, "I've reserved some animals for your OWL year. Just wait, they're very special..."

"Uh...Of course, you probably have met with Fish." Hagrid glanced at Mao Mao who was putting the dragon meat into his pocket, and the interest that had just risen suddenly dropped again.

"Aren't they dangerous?" Harry asked, also a little uneasy.

"Dangerous?" Hagrid seemed amused, "Stop being silly, I won't give you dangerous things! I mean, they can take care of themselves..."

However, Harry and the others all knew that Hagrid's non-dangerous standard was completely different from normal people's standards.

So Hermione suggested eagerly: "Hagrid, you have to pass Umbridge's inspection, so if she sees you teaching us how to find Ponlock, how to distinguish a hedgehog from a hedgehog, etc., it will really be a good idea." Much better!"

Harry and Ron nodded in agreement.

"But that's not much fun, Hermione," said Hagrid.

"That's right, meow!" Fish nodded in agreement, and added in a serious manner: "Lu Wei and the others are more fun. Panglock and Thorn are too weak, meow, and they are no match for the cat knights."

"Cat Knight? It's the group of little girls that Evans called up, right? I've heard it from other people occasionally." Hagrid mistakenly thought that Fish was talking about members of the Fish Support Club.

"That's not important!" Hermione gave Fish the troublesome a hard look, and said, "Umbridge is looking for an excuse to get rid of the teacher she thinks is too close to Dumbledore, please, teach me something ordinary , something that will definitely be in the OWL exam..."

But Hagrid didn't seem to be listening at all, he smiled and patted Hermione's shoulder lightly, her knees gave way and she fell to her knees on the ground.

"Oh! I'm sorry!" He pulled her up by the collar of his robe, "Don't worry about me, I promise I have prepared very good things for your Care of Magical Creatures class..."

Hagrid's gaze swung between Harry and Ron for a while, then he looked at Fish and said, "Speaking of which, Fish, I need your help with something else."

"That's right, Minerva said the same thing, meow."

Σ(ΦωΦ)
Only then did Fish and the others recall, all four of them looked up at Hagrid curiously.

"Come with me." Hagrid put on his cloak, and walked outside, "Father, stay and watch the house."

Fish and Hermione turned into cats and jumped onto his shoulders, while Harry and Ron put on the cloak and followed.

"I can't use a wand, don't forget to wipe off the footprints." Hagrid reminded him as he walked towards the Forbidden Forest with the two cats on his back.

The erasing spell was not an advanced spell. Although Harry and Ron mainly practiced actual combat spells during this time, they could handle it without bothering Hermione.

After they got into the Forbidden Forest, there was basically no need to erase their footprints, because the ground of the entire Forbidden Forest was messy, and animals would pass by from time to time, mixing with their footprints.

"Hagrid, where are we going?" After entering the Forbidden Forest, Harry tore off his invisibility cloak, and holding up his glowing wand, he asked half curiously and half worriedly, "You don't know where you are from again?" What dangerous animal did you bring back from outside, and you are going to introduce it to us in the Protection of Magical Beasts class?"

Hagrid also said before that the negotiation with the giant was sabotaged by the Death Eaters, so Harry didn't consider his initial guess.

"Of course not," Hagrid shook his head, with a troubled expression on his face, "I..."

He said "I" for a long time but failed to say anything, which made Harry and Ron even more frightened...

God knows what it was that made Hagrid, who only felt cute when he saw a fire dragon, hesitate like this!
"Meow!"

(=`Д=)

Fish, who was squatting on Hagrid's shoulder, got impatient and raised his little paw and punched his big head.

Hagrid let out a long sigh, and continued to speak, but he still spoke intermittently, appearing to be very hesitant.

"Well...Actually...I brought my brother back..."

"...Meow!"

After a moment of silence, Hermione, who was the first to understand, was furious.

And Harry also reacted, and he asked tremblingly, "Hagrid, do you mean by 'brother' you mean..."

"Actually...he is a half-brother." Hagrid corrected: "I found out later that after my mother left my father, she followed another giant, and then there was Glop...he said his name , it sounds like this sound.”

Harry and Ron looked at each other, then laughed wryly together.

Unexpectedly, as they guessed at the beginning, Hagrid really brought back a giant.

"He doesn't talk very much...I've been trying to teach him..." Hagrid's words gradually became fluent. "My mother doesn't seem to like him very much, just like she didn't like me at the beginning. You know, the giantess For a man, the most important thing is to have tall and respectable children, and he is a little small for a giant--only sixteen feet high..."

"Ha——!" Ron let out an unintelligible laugh, and then said in a word: "A little bit? Short? Only? Sixteen feet?"

"Oh, yes." Hagrid wrung his hands and smiled awkwardly. "You should know that other giants are generally more than twenty feet tall. They all bullied him because he was too small."

"Ha!" Ron let out that inexplicable laugh again.

Although dissatisfied with Hagrid's behavior, neither Harry nor Ron stopped, but continued to follow him into the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

Of course, the more important thing is that after seeing the three behemoths Lu Wei, Uroboros and Canaloa, they will not be too surprised by the "only" sixteen-foot-tall Glop .

Not to mention Fish, who squatted on Hagrid's shoulder, flicking his tail excitedly.

Under the leadership of Hagrid, the group left the path in the Forbidden Forest and began to meander through the bushes, heading towards the dark center of the Forbidden Forest.

After a hard slog they came to a barren field surrounded by many great trunks and boughs, forming some kind of fence and barrier, a large smooth mound almost as high as Hagrid. surrounded in the middle.

But after Harry took a closer look, he realized that it was not a mound of dirt, but a huge figure, which was slowly rising and falling with a vague, rhythmic rumbling sound.

　Sixteen feet is less than 5 meters tall, which is about the height of a two-story building.

　　The giant leader whose head was cut off was 23 feet. According to Hagrid, the tallest was about 25 feet, which is 7.6 meters high.

　　So according to Hagrid, an ordinary giant is about twenty feet, or about 6 meters.
