Naturally, Hermione, who overestimated the Fire Dragon's strength, did not believe that she was capable of helping Harry defeat the Fire Dragon.

Of course, at least in this matter, Hermione's feeling was correct.

Although in today's world where Curses is highly developed, Fire Dragon have basically been reduced to material suppliers, and are even close to being listed as an endangered species.

However, this minor incident is not enough to shake its position as the apex predator in the food chain.

Under normal circumstances, an ordinary adult wizard cannot defeat a Fire Dragon in a one-on-one fight.

Therefore, Hermione, whose current strength is still some distance from that of an ordinary adult wizard, is naturally no match for the Fire Dragon.

"The so-called Fantasy Greatsword · Demonic Fall, is actually the Noble Phantasm of the Heroic Spirit Siegfried. You know Siegfried, right? He is..."

"Stop--!"

Hermione yelled, interrupting Bell's long-winded explanation.

She finally understood; Bell was just fooling her again!

"Bell! I'm asking you a very serious question, can't you be serious for once!"

"I'm not being indecent... Okay, okay, I understand."

As is well known, Fire Dragon scales possess extremely strong magical resistance. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to directly attack Fire Dragon with Curses.

Conversely, one can use Transfiguration to launch purely physical attacks.

Seeing his girlfriend grinding her teeth again, Bell quickly sat up straight and said seriously.

"Of course, with Harry's current level of Transfiguration, it would be impossible for him to harm the Fire Dragon."

Attacks to vulnerable areas such as the eyes are a separate matter.

Don't assume that just because Hermione didn't say anything, Bell didn't know why she asked such a question.

Those Fire Dragon are constantly yelling and screaming in the Forbidden Forest, so annoying that Bell is tempted to kill them.

"What should we do then?"

Hermione said worriedly, and looked at Bell again with her big, watery eyes.

She had already made a bold promise to Harry and Neville out of complete trust in Bell. If she came back empty-handed, where would Bell's pride be?

Oblivious to the fact that his already limited face was facing another sharp decline, Bell picked his nose and said nonchalantly:

"It's my fault for being weak."

"Bell!"

Hermione glared at Bell with displeasure.

How could you talk about your classmate like that?!

Hermione felt that while Bell was indeed very powerful in magic, he really should learn from her in other areas.

She always ranked first in the entire grade in the final exams. Was she ever proud? At least she never said it out loud!

"Sigh~! Don't worry, the professors would never send Little Wizard to fight Fire Dragon in its prime; that would be sending them to their deaths. So there's no need to worry too much."

In addition, the lack of scales covering the eyes and nostrils of Fire Dragon is their weakness.

In these last few days, practice with moving targets. Maybe you can perform exceptionally well during the competition and hit the weak points a few more times.

In that case, whatever the requirements of the competition, they should all be met.

For Hermione's sake, Bell reluctantly racked his brains and came up with an idea that was neither good nor bad.

There was nothing he could do; he had never taken a mere Fire Dragon seriously.

If it's a giant dragon from ancient legends, whose existence is uncertain, then he needs to be on his guard and focus on dealing with it.

The modern Fire Dragon is at most slightly stronger than a B-Rank Evil Spirit like the "Train," and is not worth fearing at all. A few Curses would certainly cripple it if it didn't die.

Anti-Dragon Special Attack?

It doesn't exist!

"Hmph! You should have said that sooner!"

After grumbling to Bell, Hermione turned and ran away.

She wanted to relay Bell's words to Harry verbatim in order to save Bell's face.

"Hey! You're not allowed to practice target shooting with Harry others!"

Bell shouted loudly at his girlfriend's retreating figure.

Just kidding. If Hermione abandoned him and went to practice shooting with Harry instead, he couldn't guarantee Harry would survive until the start of the competition if he got jealous.

"Okay!"

Finally, as everyone eagerly awaited, time passed at a leisurely pace until November 24th.

This afternoon, the first match of the Triwizard Tournament will take place.

Therefore, in the morning, wails filled Hogwarts Castle...

"Are you kidding me! Why do we have to have class this morning!?"

"Exactly! It's Mao's class! I need to go and save a seat! What if I'm late and can't get a front-row seat?"

"That's right! Let's skip class!"

Then, the three of them were... taken away by Professor McGonagall...

This is truly a sad story, and tears of sorrow streamed down Bell's face.

In short, the long morning finally passed as the professor was distracted from lecturing and the students were distracted from listening.

After lunch, Bell and the others regrouped and prepared to head to the competition venue.

It's worth mentioning that this time, two new figures have joined Bell Grylls' team.

They are Gabrielle Delacour and Luna Lovegood.

Gabrielle has been at Hogwarts for almost a month now. In this month, whenever she gets the chance, the little one escapes her sister, whom she says can't live without, and runs off to play with Shanna and the other two.

Phoebe was furious about this, and almost challenged Bell, the bastard who had corrupted her sister, to a duel.

This time, the girls had already made plans to watch the game together and cheer for Gabrielle's sister.

Under Gabrielle's charming offensive, not only Phyllis and Lena, but even Shanna betrayed the revolution and joined Beauxbatons ' camp.

Anyway, they weren't familiar with Harry or Cedric, and the three girls didn't even know Cedric existed before he became Champion.

Therefore, compared to her sister, Gabrielle is closer to her.

You know, according to Gabrielle, her sister Fleur is going to marry Shanna's brother Belle in the future. Then they'll be family!

Although Shanna didn't believe a word Gabrielle said, that didn't stop her from secretly fueling the flames.

There's nothing we can do about it; Hermione's reactions are just too hilarious!

If her Gege hadn't stopped her, she would have gone even further and teased Hermione even more.

As for Luna, known far and wide as the "Mad Girl," no one wanted to watch the game with her.

If Luna suddenly goes berserk while everyone's really enjoying the game, will they be watching the game or watching Luna?

One wrong move and it could drive someone with OCD crazy, you know?
