Magical Studies at Hogwarts

"We can't give up, Olim."

In the cave, Hagrid said in a deep voice: "There must be giants who are dissatisfied with Gao Gaoma's rule. That is our goal."

"Then your injury should be better. That's the most important thing now." Maxim took a bottle of magic potion and poured it into Hagrid directly.

In the previous conflict with the giant, Hagrid was seriously injured. He couldn't use his arms and couldn't even drink medicine by himself.

"Ahem..." Maxim drank a little too quickly, causing Hagrid to cough. "What I mean is that we can observe first. The change of giant leaders is normal, but they shouldn't have such a big impact on us." Hostility, that doesn’t make sense.”

"But the truth is, that guy named Gao Gaoma almost killed you." Maxim took Hagrid's arm and pointed the wand at his shoulder in his right hand.A flash of white light flashed, and Hagrid let out a scream at the right moment.

"Don't worry, there's another one."

After another scream, Maxim let go of Hagrid's arm with a look of disgust on his face and said, "Okay, it should be fine in two days."

Hagrid moved his arm. Although it still hurt a little, it was no longer a problem.

"I still think we should take another look..."

"Actually, there's nothing interesting to see. It's obviously a lackey of the Dark Lord." Maxim said, "Kakus said that he rejected the proposals of the two Death Eaters."

"However, you are right. There should be giants who are dissatisfied with Gao Gaoma and Gu Ge... But we must be careful. Now the enemy is not only Gao Gaoma, but also Death Eaters!"

Hagrid nodded repeatedly. Seeing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Maxim's mouth, but it was fleeting.

They rested in the cave for a day, and then quietly slipped into the valley the next night to look for those giants who were not convinced by their high horses.

It's also easy to find. After all, Gao Gaoma has just become Gu Ge, and his control over the tribe is somewhat lacking.And the only way he can control the tribe is to conquer those who are dissatisfied.

So, just look for those injured giants.

Their infiltration was difficult, as Hagrid disagreed with Maxim's use of the Disillusionment Charm.Giants hate wizards using magic to deal with them. Although the Disembodiment Spell will not harm them directly, it will give them the illusion that the wizard wants to sneak attack.

Moreover, the difficulties do not end there.

"Sure enough, it's them, those Death Eaters!" As soon as he slipped in, Hagrid saw Gao Gaomao talking loudly with two humans beside the huge bonfire by the lake.

He knew them all, one was McNeil and the other was Ike.

"Damn, they must be very proud, but this is just right, we can take the opportunity to sneak in." Hagrid lowered his voice, patted Maxim's arm, and pointed in the direction.

"Go there first and have a look..."

The hierarchy of the giant tribe is very strict. Gu Ge enjoys the best accommodation and the best services, and does not need to hunt. His die-hard followers live closest to him, which is basically a cave by the lake.Others, based on their closeness to Gu Ge, are more distant as they are on the periphery, which is exactly what Hagrid is looking for.

Carefully hiding themselves in the shadows, the two searched for a long time before finding three bruised giants in the outermost cave.They looked miserable, with their skin and flesh bruised from injuries they had only sustained in the past two days.

"Hello, we came to visit Cacus before. I want to talk to you..." Hagrid whispered to the three giants, introducing his origin and purpose.

Maybe it was Hagrid's sincere attitude, or maybe it was the affinity between the two of them. Gradually, the three giants were somewhat convinced, but they were still hesitant.

Hagrid was very happy, but did not show it. After making an appointment with the three giants to see them again tomorrow, Hagrid left.

"What a great start, but we need more giants..."

The next night, Hagrid and Maxim came to the cave where the three giants were again and talked to them again. This time they agreed. There was no need for Hagrid to find a way to get them back to England. They themselves Will find a way.

"That's great, thank you." Hagrid was very excited, "Then it's settled, we will go to the cave to the north, where there are four giants like you."

"Please be careful. Gao Gaoma's men came here to search during the day. They are looking for you." A giant stumbled and said in English, his eyes full of sincerity.

"We will." As he said that, Hegel took Maxim out of the cave and walked towards the same cave he discovered last night.

It was a slightly larger cave than before, but four giants were squeezed into it. Even if one of them was underage, it was very crowded.

"Are you okay? As promised, we came to see you." Hagrid and Maxim stopped at the entrance of the cave. There was really no place to stay inside.

"It's better." A muffled voice sounded, but smooth enough. It was the translator beside Kakus before.

"What do you think? We just came from Dimas and they have already agreed." Hagrid said, "We need your power."

"If Dimas and the others agree, we also agree."

"Great! Don't worry, we will..."

Suddenly, a deafening roar sounded, and the ground immediately felt obvious vibrations.Immediately afterwards, another burst of screams came from the direction where Dimas and the others were before.

Everyone's expressions changed. Maxim took out his wand and looked out of the cave warily.There, several tall figures were running towards here quickly.

It's Gao Gaoma!

But this was not the main reason that made her expression change drastically. Compared to the tall horse in shining silver armor, the real danger was the two Death Eaters around him.

"I really didn't expect that the respected Ms. Maxim would be with you, Hagrid." McNeil pointed the wand at Maxim, but looked at Hagrid and said, "It's because you are both half-giants. The reason?"

"Damn! You will pay the price!" Maxim was furious, issued a magic spell, and arrived in front of McNeil in the blink of an eye.It was so fast that he didn't even react.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, a small silver shield appeared, less than two inches in front of McNeil, blocking the incoming curse.

"Ms. Maxim, please forgive my companion's gaffe. He did not mean any harm." Ike folded his hands in front of him with a calm expression.

"Apologise! McNeil."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Maxim." McNeil apologized obediently and seemed sincere, but Maxim's anger showed no signs of fading and he became more vigilant.

Ike didn't pay attention to Maxim, who was holding up his wand. The temptation just now made him feel confident.He turned to look at Hagrid with a bright smile on his face, but for some reason, Hagrid couldn't help but take half a step back after seeing it.

"Hello, Hagrid, long time no see..."
