Harry Potter: The Legend of Demigods

Chapter 101 You are here to raise a dragon, right?

"Well, it doesn't hurt to tell you - let me see - he borrowed Fluffy from me - and then asked a few other teachers to do the magic... Professor Sprout - Flitwick Professor—Professor McGonagall—" he counted on his fingers, "Professor Quirrell—and, of course, Dumbledore did the magic himself. Wait, I forgot someone. Oh, by the way, it's Si Professor Nepp.”

Anakin thought that now that Harry and the others had learned the clue, Anakin could "accidentally" discover the dragon egg.

"Hagrid - what is that?" Anakin suddenly pointed at the fireplace and said, "This seems to be..."

"Huh," Hagrid said, twirling his beard uncomfortably, "that's - oh..."

"Where did you get it, Hagrid?" said Ron, crouching down by the fire and looking at the big egg more closely. "It must have cost you a lot of money!"

"I earned it," Hagrid said. "Last night, I was drinking in the village and playing cards with a stranger. To be honest, the man was probably just dying to get rid of it."

"But what are you going to do when it hatches?" Hermione asked. "Hagrid, don't forget you live in a wooden house."

"Actually, I have a better way. Do you remember Newt? We can definitely ask him for help." Anakin said calmly, "His love for magical animals is not inferior to Hagrid."

Of course, he is more rational (autistic).

"But, won't he take Hagrid to court directly? But he..." Hailey looked at Anakin a little confused and asked.

"Don't worry, if you understand what this guy did when he was young, you will find that the magical animals Hagrid raised at will are just childish." Anakin said with a smile: "As far as I know, he was When I went to the United States, I illegally brought many high-risk magical animals, such as thunderbirds, squirrels, and... and obscuras."

I don’t know why, but when Anakin said ‘Oscurus’, he seemed to have an unknown timidity, as if the whole air had solidified. Anakin couldn't help but shudder. He felt waves of chills running down his spine, as if some indescribable existence was quietly approaching.

"What is the Obscurus?" Hermione asked, somewhat curious.

"Oscurus... it is a parasitic organism, a black magic that is powerful but extremely unstable and difficult to control." Anakin said with a hint of heaviness in his tone. "They usually parasitize the bodies of young wizards and cause great damage to the surroundings. However, although they are powerful, they are also very fragile. Once they are freed from the parasitic wizard, they generally dissipate on their own. It is said that Newt was The Obscurus was separated from the body of a girl, but unfortunately the treatment came too late and was unsuccessful."

Hailey covered her mouth in horror. "So these things... why do they become parasitic in the human body?"

"Rather than being parasitic, it's better to say that the little wizards caused the Obscurus to grow in their bodies due to external...for some reason." Anakin replied. "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Anyway, I think Newt can help. But let's wait until the dragon hatches."

......

One day at breakfast, Hedwig brought Harry another note from Hagrid. There are only four words written on it: hatching soon.

"Anakin, should we talk to Newt now?" Ron asked, "By the way, skip Herbology class and go to Hagrid's place to see the dragon hatch?"

Hermione frowned, as if she didn't agree with the idea. "Do you really think this is a good idea?" she said, her face serious. "Ron, we are students, how can we skip class? Look, we have an exam soon, if..." Hermione persuaded.

"Hermione, how many times in our lifetime do we get to see baby dragons emerge from their shells?"

"We have to go to class or we'll get into trouble; if anyone finds out what Hagrid did, he'll be even more unlucky than us -"

"Stop it," Harry warned quietly.

Malfoy was just a few steps away, stopping to listen.

In Herbology class, Ron had been debating Hermione.

"Have they always been like this?" Hayley asked enthusiastically, and Anakin had a strange feeling, as if she had eaten something interesting.

Finally, Hermione finally agreed to run to Hagrid's hut with them during the morning break. At the end of get out of class, as soon as the bell rang in the castle, they dropped their shovels and hurried across the field, heading towards the edge of the forbidden forest area. Hagrid greeted them, his face glowing with excitement.

"Coming out soon." He let them into the hut. Anakin discovered that Newt was already inside, and it seemed that Hagrid had told him. Hermione seemed to faint from excitement when she saw Newt. She quickly took out "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" for Newt to sign. Newt played steadily, as autistic as ever, but still a little at a loss for Hermione's enthusiasm.

It is said that his autism has improved a lot over the years...

Let’s talk about how this guy faced passionate fans when he was young...

The egg was lying on the table with a deep crack on it. Something was moving inside, making a funny clicking sound. They all moved their chairs closer to the table, held their breath, and watched closely.

Suddenly, with a harsh scratching sound, the egg cracked. The little dragon slowly crawled out of the egg and flopped on the table.

Newt said happily: "Oh, look! She is so beautiful, isn't she?"

It's not actually pretty; it looks like a crumpled black umbrella. Its spiny wings look particularly large compared to its thin, black body. It also has a long, big nose with white nostrils, horns on its head, and orange-red eyes that protrude outward.

The dragon's scales flashed in the light, and it blinked its big eyes, looking around curiously. Its wings swayed and made a slight popping sound. Everyone watched intently, excitedly waiting for Xiaolong's next move.

"What kind of dragon is this?" Hermione asked excitedly, seeming to have completely forgotten her previous hesitation.

"Norwegian Ridgeback." Newt said: "The eggs of Ridgeback are black. Ridgeback is extremely aggressive and is one of the rare dragon species. Compared with other types of fire dragon hatchlings, Ridgeback hatchlings breathe fire. Their abilities develop earlier and they grow faster, and can grow to twice their original size within a week.”

"Norbert, I decided to call him Norbert!" Hagrid said excitedly, not paying any attention to the last words Newt said.
