[HP] Noble

"Oh yeah, then you should give it a try!" Hagrid waved his small fan-like hand in a rough voice, sounding grumpy and said, "I'd like to see Look - someone will throw a gamekeeper out of Hogwarts just because he wants to protect unicorns - such sacred magical animals -!"

After finishing speaking, the tall half-blood giant never looked in the direction of the Slytherins, and took the lead in walking in the direction of the string of blood that Draco found—at this moment, almost no one needed to remind Slytherin Kopi could also guess from the denser and denser forests that they were gradually approaching the depths of the Forbidden Forest without knowing it. The bright unicorn blood is also increasing--

In the end, the amount of blood was so much that Scorpius was almost convinced that even if they found the injured unicorn at this time, at best, they might just find its corpse.

"Oh, why haven't we arrived yet? I'm about to freeze." Ron Weasley's voice was visibly trembling, and he didn't know whether he was really frozen or scared.

"It's almost there, hush—" Harry lowered his voice, quietly pulling his cloak hat off his head—

At this moment, it seemed that they finally came to the center of the Forbidden Forest through the dense undergrowth. Through the ancient big trees with intertwined branches, they could faintly see an open field not far from them, where only the dwarf The lawn is short, and the moonlight shines down from the sky, illuminating the fluffy thorns on a dense and well-bloomed evening primrose. From a distance, the whole open space looks like a galaxy falling into the world...

A pure white unicorn lay there, motionless.

It emits flickering light like a firefly, and the halo shrouds its surroundings. In the cold wind, the unicorn's soft and pale golden mane is blown up gently, accompanying its surroundings. The light halo refracted by the fluff blown and fluttered by the wind on the evening primrose made everything appear lifelike, as if the unicorn was still alive.

However, it really is dead.

This is a scene where beauty and death coexist, almost suffocating.

Scorpius had heard that unicorns had beautiful silver-gray eyes like Draco's - and he saw a unicorn today, unfortunately he couldn't confirm it... at this time At this moment, the unicorn that had lost its life tightly closed its eyes that would never be opened again, and its legs were still unnaturally straightened in the position it had been in for a second before it fell down. The manes must have been soft and shiny in normal times, but now they were just scattered over the rotting foliage deep in the Forbidden Forest.

"We are one step late," Draco's voice whispered in everyone's ears, but there was not much regret in the platinum noble's voice, he just said lightly, "This unicorn probably just died , A unicorn that has been dead for a long time will not emit a halo..."

As soon as Draco finished speaking, Scorpius heard Hagrid's loud sobbing - oh yes, their gamekeeper has always been sentimental, well, at least when it comes to magical animals, he is.

"There's no need to feel sorry," Draco said mockingly, sweeping at the half-blood giant who began to sob unscrupulously, "Even if it came a lot earlier, we couldn't save it, it was seriously injured, and we want to heal it It's probably going to need a life spell, and that's the whole point—first, Dumbledore wouldn't, and second, no one would want to give a piece of their life to a brute."

Draco's words successfully earned Gryffindor stares and Scorpius helpless glances.

"No one should harm such a holy creature..."

Hagrid snarled and took a step towards the dead unicorn, but the moment he stepped out of the bushes, Draco grabbed the hem of the big dirty cotton jacket !At the same time, Scorpius saw the silver snake ring on his hand flicker like never before!The gem light on the ring flickered very fast, as if it indicated some danger——

Scorpius was stunned for a moment, and his heart tightened suddenly. Although he had never heard that this ring also had the function of an alarm, such an unusual performance forced him to deal with it with 12 points of energy. Everything that happened down-

In fact, Scorpius' vigilance was correct. In the next second, almost everyone heard a rustling sound amid Hagrid's loud belch—as if someone was running in the dark There was the sound of his robes tumbling in the strong wind, and then, a bush not far from them suddenly trembled violently, and a figure with a hood and a thin cloak slipped out of it. Like a worm without hands and feet, it slowly crawled on the ground, crawling towards the dead unicorn in a creepy gesture.

All the people present were stunned by this sudden scene. They held their breath and opened their eyes wide. Everyone stood motionless as if their feet were nailed to the spot, watching the figure. Slowly covering the unicorn's body, followed by the wonderful muffled sound of the teeth tearing the muscles, the head of that thing was getting lower and lower, finally, the howling cold wind did not stop. The sound of the thing swallowing the blood of the unicorn was vaguely transmitted to the ears of everyone present...

Scorpius was cold all over, and his hands and feet were almost numb to the point where he couldn't feel whether the blood was still flowing all over his body. He subconsciously felt that he probably saw a very, very evil scene——

It wasn't until the platinum noble next to him shuddered that Scorpius felt a living fear spread around them all, and then Draco started screaming without warning— —

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!"

The hysterical scream of the first-year Slytherin shocked everyone present!

"what is that?--"

"Run, Hagrid, run!"

"Harry, what's wrong with you Harry-"

"Headache, like someone is setting fire to my head - stop! stop!"

The kerosene lamp in Hagrid's hand fell to the ground, someone turned and ran away from Scorpius and broke a dry branch under their feet, someone was crying and shouting and fell to the ground, and when Scorpius turned his head suddenly When I went to find Draco, I found that he didn't make any sound after the initial scream, and he stared at the hooded creature not far away as if he wanted to lose his soul, his face was pale There is no trace of blood!

At this moment, Scorpius could no longer care that the ring on his hand was still flashing, he held his breath, grabbed Draco - and picked up Potter who stumbled and fell beside him , forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, stepped forward with legs that seemed to be infused with lead, followed behind Hagrid's huge figure, and ran wildly without looking back——

Until he bumped headfirst into a warm, visibly muscular body!

And accompanied by a strong smell of stables.

Scorpius was suddenly sent to Potter, who was still in his hand, staggered a few times and bumped into the platinum nobleman behind him—if it wasn't for Draco who had calmed down at this moment He reached out to help him, and he probably sat down on the ground.

When Scorpius raised his head, he realized that he bumped into a centaur, and it was a centaur that Scorpius knew—he had golden hair, a handsome appearance, and a strong chest. At this moment, Firenze stretched out his hand and carefully picked up Harry who had fallen to the ground, but looked at Draco with worried eyes.

"Are you all right?" Firenze said in a gentle voice, "Oh, at least I think the heir of the Malfoy family may have been frightened. What did you see?"

"The corpse of a unicorn, and something unknown."

Scorpius lowered his voice, and when Draco's pale face behind him was slightly stained pink with shame, Scorpius found that he didn't have much mood to comfort him, and turned his eyes numbly. Looking at the prophecy professor who unfortunately died in the early stage of the war in the future, he found that his voice was terribly dry-he found that Dumbledore's worries were not superfluous. In the past, you will find that you need a lot of stopping power It is not to prevent some bad things that are about to happen...

Especially when you're dealing with people who have died in the future you can see.

This is very cruel.

"There is no need to feel guilty, the heir of the Malfoy family." Firenze said, "It just comes from the resonance of evil. When dark things collide with dark things, people often have some wonderful resonance—— It seems that when good people get together, they can push the ending of the story to the best destination, and the element of black magic flowing in your body makes you... born to be more sensitive to black magic than other people—maybe, it also happens to be because This resonance, so you can escape the extinction of that creature."

"What?" Firenze's consolation didn't seem to have much effect, at least judging from the expression on Draco's face, he looked even more embarrassed at the moment, listening to Firenze's words, he shivered suddenly , the silver-gray pupils stared at the horseman in front of him, "What does this mean?"

"There is a saying in the ancient East called 'a tiger's poison does not eat its child', which probably means something like this," Firenze smiled, "I'm sure you've encountered something very evil, because recently I've also been interested in unicorns. I have heard a little about the time of death, believe me, if it is not for the hunger and thirst for life, no one in this world would want to touch a cursed creature like a unicorn."

Draco didn't speak, but Harry was stunned for a moment, turning his head and looking at the centaur who suddenly appeared in front of them with disapproval: "Hagrid said that unicorns are the most holy gods in the world. "

"Holy?" Firenze smiled, and it seemed that it was not the first time he heard such words, "Maybe wizards think so, but I never think that there are any creatures in the world that must be holy because they are holy." Only young girls can approach, true holiness should be able to purify all evil in the world."

As Firenze spoke, he used his strong hands to lift Harry onto his horse's back - a small gesture that distracted Draco and raised his eyebrows in embarrassment.

"You should not come to the Forbidden Forest, especially the nearest Forbidden Forest."

"Hagrid brought us here." Harry said wearily, lying on Firenze's back, his face still covered with mud and sweat from falling to the ground just now.

"Hagrid's a nice guy, though sometimes I don't think he's very sane."

Firenze spoke vaguely. At this time they had come to the edge of the Forbidden Forest. They only needed to look up to see the dim yellow light from Hagrid's cabin, and the sound of footsteps not far away could be heard. It turned out that Hagrid, Ron, and Hermione who had just run away from them had also come out of the Forbidden Forest.

Firenze let Harry off his back, turned and disappeared into the darkness of the Forbidden Forest.

Only one Gryffindor and two Slytherins were left standing there staring.

Scorpius sighed and patted Draco who was stiff - at this moment, the ring on his hand finally stopped the dazzling flickering, "Don't take his words to heart, Draco, "Scorpius tried to reassure, "At least there has never been a book that said that the centaur should be an extremely wise creature."

"Of course, I certainly don't think that's true."

At this moment, Prince Slytherin raised his proud slender chin, stared at Scorpius, and said in a slow voice almost word by word: "I will never lower my style to the same level. It’s as knowledgeable as a magical animal, not to mention that it’s a crazy centaur who can put wizards on his back for people to ride.”
