Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic

Almost at the same time, Auston and Harry rushed out with Hagrid.

"Oh! No..." Neville followed them hesitantly, "No... You can't go, Hagrid told us to wait..."

Auston and Harry didn't answer, they kept speeding away.

The branches rustled their robes, Auston rolled up the robes tightly, and quickly pulled the fishing net out of his hands.

When the line of sight became wider and wider, they came out of the woods to another path.

After a while, Auston saw the situation in front of him clearly through the moonlight.

I saw that Delphi and Malfoy were both pointing at Hermione with their wands. Malfoy's face was gloating, and Delphi's eyes looking at Hermione almost burst into flames.

Hermione also showed no signs of weakness, holding her wand and confronting them. Hagrid stood between them, her face full of anger.

"This is not a joke! We are doing a very dangerous thing now, why are you still in the mood to fight here!"

"Especially the two of you!" Hagrid turned his huge body to Malfoy and Delphi. "Malfoy, Spender, didn't Professor Snape teach you that wizard duels are all one-on-one? It is the most shameful behavior to bully more and less!"

Auston noticed that Hermione's legs were tightly pressed together, and the hand holding the wand was motionless.

He randomly stuffed the fishing net into the bag, walked over and hugged her hard, and took her to the side of the road. Delphi's face was even more ugly, her wand pointed at Hermione with Auston's movements, her eyes were full of anger, and she wanted to eat them both.

Auston waved to Harry, and Harry, who followed him out of the woods, was still stooping and gasping for breath.

"Harry, come here," Auston called.

Harry walked quickly, gasping for breath.

"What... what's wrong?"

"It's a petrification spell, take out your wand." Auston looked up at him.

Harry saw Hermione lying in Auston's arms, her wand pointed at the sky.

He pulled out his wand and waved at Hermione, and her hand dropped.

Hermione woke up and saw Delphi, who was still pointing her wand at her, and she jumped up to give Delphi a curse. Auston hugged her tightly and wouldn't let her move.

"Alright, alright, Hermione, don't make trouble, we're in a very dangerous situation now! We can't fight infighting!" he discouraged.

Hermione then noticed whose arms she was in

"Auston! You're here!" She looked at him in surprise.

"Yeah!" Auston nodded.

Hagrid came over after training Malfoy and Delphi

"Guys and girls, it looks like we're going to rearrange the team to prevent this from happening again."

"Auston, switch with Hermione." He looked at Auston, "Let Hermione join us."

Auston nodded.

"Remember, always beware of those two Slytherin guys." Hagrid whispered.

Hermione held onto Auston's robes tightly, reluctant to let him go with Malfoy and the others.

"I'll be with Auston too. I can help him with anything." Harry said, glancing at the dragonskin bag hanging on Auston's waist without a trace, and the fishing net inside was slightly exposed. a corner.

"Well, that's fine," Hagrid nodded. "However, you all have to pay attention to safety. Whether it's finding a unicorn or encountering that evil thing, don't deal with it privately, and you must give me a signal."

After they regrouped, Hagrid took Hermione and Neville into the woods and went the same way.

Here, Malfoy led the dog and Delphi walked side by side. Delphi looked back at them from time to time. Her eyes returned to Auston's usual indifference.

Harry tugged at Auston, and they paused for a while to make sure Malfoy and Delphi couldn't hear them.

Harry opened his mouth to ask

"Why did you bring that thing?"

"Which thing is it?" Auston was about to muddle through.

"Don't hide it from me, I know it's the thing that nearly strangled me last time! It's in your bag!"

"Shh—" Harry's voice grew louder and louder, and Auston quickly covered his mouth.

"Are you sure the person who's going to steal the Philosopher's Stone will come tonight? Are you going to catch him?" Harry pulled Auston's hand over his mouth and asked anxiously.

Auston nodded, "It's very likely that we'll meet him today, and now he can't get the Philosopher's Stone, so he can only use the blood of unicorns to continue his life. You can also see, he just killed another unicorn, I Make sure he's nearby."

As he said that, he looked around the woods vigilantly.

"You also have to be careful, and tell me immediately if you find anything," he urged.

Harry nodded heavily.

Then they followed Delphi and Malfoy. Let's go to the center of the Forbidden Forest together.

They walked for nearly half an hour, getting deeper and deeper into the forest, and then the trees became so dense that the path was almost impossible to walk.

The blood on the ground is getting denser. A tree root was spattered with blood, as if the poor animal had wriggled and struggled in pain nearby.

Through the tangled branches of an ancient oak tree, a clearing can be seen ahead.

"Look!" Harry whispered, raising his arm to stop Auston.

A white thing in the clearing gleamed on the ground.

They approached the white thing little by little by themselves.

Gradually, Auston saw clearly that it seemed to be a white horse~www.NovelMTL.com~ The difference from the horse was its forehead, with a white horn on it.

It fell to the ground, apparently dead, its long legs stretched unnaturally in the same posture as it had fallen; its mane lay on the dark leaves, white as pearls. Around its neck was a large pool of silver blood.

Delphi raised her wand and was about to send a signal to Hagrid and the others when Auston immediately grabbed her arm and shook his head.

Since the unicorn is here, he can be sure that Voldemort is not far from here, and sending a signal now will definitely alarm him.

Delphi looked at him with a puzzled expression, but she put down her hand.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bushes.

coming! Auston hurriedly tore the net out of the bag, gripping his silver dagger tightly in his other hand.

Then, a hooded figure flashed out of the shadows, and it slowly crawled on the ground like a beast approaching. Harry, Malfoy and the others were all taken aback and stood there dumbfounded. The cloaked figure came to the unicorn, lowered his head, aimed at the wound on the side of the corpse, and began to drink its blood.

"what--!"

Malfoy let out a scream and ran away. Fang also escaped without life. The hooded figure looked up and saw them at a glance, the unicorn's blood dripping on its chest. It stood up and walked quickly towards them.

Auston could feel that Harry and Delphi, who were standing on both sides of him, were stiff.

Suddenly, Harry fell down clutching the scar on his forehead. This made Auston more sure of the identity of the person who came.

"Take care of Harry!"

He left such a sentence for Delphi, then tore off the fishing net and rushed towards the shadow...
