Frustrated! Extremely frustrated!

However, Harry couldn't help but feel happy for Hagrid's performance.

The moment Hagrid greeted him, he knew why.

Hagrid, nothing in the Forbidden Forest escapes Hagrid's eyes.

Not to mention his earlier rant.

There are two possibilities for this surprise.

One of them was to take the experiment that the Gryffindor and Slytherin had done in the previous lesson.

Secondly, the changes were made based on his complaints.

Hagrid was not far away, shouted, "Anyone who guesses today's lesson content correctly will get 5 points!"

Anyone interested in coming?

"I'll go! Hippocampus!" Justin Finch-Fletchley quickly raised his hand and answered.

Hey!

Finch-Fletchley, you didn't just look at the name, did you?

"I'm sorry, the answer is wrong." Hagrid shook his head in disappointment. "You're talking about a monster from Greece that inhabits the Mediterranean Sea."

Its head and forebody resemble a horse, while its tail and hindbody resemble a large fish.

This makes it look like a large seahorse.

Of course, I do have the ability to bring this rare and beautiful creature to you.

But we're not by the lake now.

Okay, next!

I hope it can be more reliable than this.

"Niffler!"

Although its head resembles that of a frog, it can live on land.

Moreover, it feeds on Mooncalf.

"As far as I know, we have Mooncalf in our woods," Ernie Macmillan replied, raising his hand.

"Very good!" Hagrid clapped, but the Hufflepuff students around him didn't even have time to rejoice.

He then suppressed his smile, "But you forgot one thing."

You probably haven't heard of any wizards in Britain who can stay awake for days and nights and still be full of energy.

However, there are many in the America.

The Daily Prophet reported on this last year.

Its secret lies in the regenerable horn of the Niffler.

If you take the powder made from it, you can stay awake for days and nights.

Moreover, there are no long-term effects.

This led America wizards to view the Niffler as a strategic resource.

I want to get one—

Sigh, it's really difficult.

I once—

Sigh, okay, next one. I feel like you're getting closer and closer to the answer!

Ernie raised his hand again.

But this time he seemed very confident, "I know, the answer is actually Horse!"

You must be trying to broaden our thinking.

The Care of Magical Creatures that resembles a horse is the Unicorn.

But this is another trap.

Unicorn are all too common in the Forbidden Forest.

And I discovered at yesterday's dinner that you have a very good relationship with Madame Maxime, the principal of Beauxbatons.

The horses that pulled Beauxbatons' carriage also disappeared.

Therefore, there is only one answer.

The creature you mentioned that starts with H actually refers to the Abraxan!

It just so happens that it's not available in the Britain.

It's rare enough, yet now it's easy to get!

"If you like wild animals, you'll definitely make that your first lesson!" Hagrid's face showed admiration.

The surrounding Hufflepuff students all applauded this time.

Even the Ravenclaw students almost couldn't resist joining in the applause.

However, Hagrid shook his head.

He said, half admiring and half disappointed, "This time it was really good."

After hearing it, I almost thought it was Abraxan.

Unfortunately.

I didn't expect that.

If we had known it could be done this way, our lesson would definitely have been about it— the Abraxan.

Alright, Harry, you're the one to do it.

I just saw it; when everyone else thought the kid was right, you subconsciously shook your head.

You must already know.

All eyes turned to Harry.

Harry could only say, "It's Hippogriff."

Compared to Ernie, I only have the advantage of knowing Hagrid better.

Ron, Draco, Neville, Ginny, and I warned him.

Therefore, for the first lesson, he will definitely choose Care of Magical Creatures as XXX (a capable wizard can handle).

Hagrid also had a fondness for wild animals.

I also thought about Pegasus (the Abraxan Ithacae Graling Thestral).

But Hagrid has always preferred to be straightforward.

This puzzle is definitely straightforward.

Therefore, it can only be Hippogriff).

Hagrid couldn't help but wipe away his tears. "Ravenclaw 10 points! For how well you understand me, Harry."

And Hufflepuff 5 points! Ernie, I can't say you're wrong.

Hagrid casually ripped off the black curtain and whistled.

As the whistle sounded, the creatures behind the curtain appeared.

There are twelve in total.

They were walking towards them.

They have the body, hind legs, and tail of a horse, but their forelegs, wings, and heads are those of an eagle, along with a steel-colored beak and bright orange eyes.

Their claws on their front legs are half a foot long and look deadly.

Each beast had a thick collar of feathers around its neck, but there was nothing on it to restrain them.

Then another whistle rang out.

Despite the absence of any hand gestures or chains, these creatures, which looked quite menacing, obediently came to the fence where the entire class was standing.

Everyone stepped back a little.

Because this fence makes people feel unsafe.

"Don't be afraid!"

They're so beautiful, aren't they?

Look at their shiny, shimmering fur!

And each one is different!

This is Buckbeak, a stormy gray!

This is bronze.

This is a pinkish-red speckled color.

This is a shimmering, reddish-brown color.

It is as black as ink.

Hagrid introduced the name of each Hippogriff.

Even more surprising, however, was what happened after Hagrid got close.

They all obediently lowered their proud heads.

It is important to know that the Hippogriff is a very proud and easily angered Care of Magical Creatures.

When dealing with it, it must take the initiative.

If it feels offended, it may hurt people.

But Hagrid did nothing.

Moreover, when they were pulled down in front of the fence and watched by the students, they did not feel the slightest offense or dissatisfaction.

This goes far beyond being tamed.

It's more accurate to say that Hagrid is like their king.

For their king, they were willing to hide their pride and serve Hagrid's wishes like dull horses.

This reminded Harry of the name he heard in the Vision—Stone Hagrid I, born of the Hagrid family, Hercules, King of the Forbidden Forest, Controller of Giant Creatures, Mentor in the Dark Forest, Liberator, and Dragon Lord.

Without a doubt, Hagrid truly inherited the power of that great being.

All the ignorant Care of Magical Creatures will be at his command.

That's why Hagrid doesn't need to use chains to restrain them.

Because even the strongest chains in the material world cannot compare to Hagrid's control over the minds of these creatures.

This kind of control is not hypnosis.

It's not deception.

Instead, I'm grateful!

Because of shedding one's animalistic instincts, one gains a truly clear-headed gratitude.

Consequently, they willingly submit to being controlled!
