"Gege, you don't dislike it anymore, do you?" Shanna looked at Bell with concern.

"How could that be! It's more accurate to say that Gege likes it even more! As expected of my sister, the animal she chose couldn't be more perfect for me!"

Yes, Bell really likes Fina; he loves animals that are both cute and powerful.

As for whether bringing such a dangerous animal to Hogwarts would be inappropriate? Just kidding! Keeping Magical Animals at school is a fine tradition at Hogwarts. First, Salazar Slytherin kept a Basilisk, then Dumbledore kept a Phoenix, and now Hagrid is keeping a group of Acromantula in the Forbidden Forest. So, it's perfectly fine for Bell to keep a Bi'an).

Hehe~

Perhaps the people were talking too loudly, because Little Fina was woken up. Seeing so many people staring at her, perhaps Little Fina was a little shy? She struggled out of Bell's arms and jumped into Shanna's arms, refusing to get down.

"Fina, from today onwards you'll be staying with your Gege. You must take good care of Gege and protect Gege, understand?" Shanna lifted Little Fina up to her eyes and stared at her earnestly as she spoke.

Fina, as expected of a top-tier Magical Animals, seemed to understand Shanna's instructions even though she was just a cub. She nodded her little head, and after Shanna put her down, she turned around and ran to Bell's side, howling at him.

Bell bent down and picked up Little Fina, gently stroking her a few times.

"What does Fina want to eat?"

"I eat almost anything, but my favorite is meat."

Bell pulled out a few skewers of roasted lamb from his pocket, used Levitation Charm to make them float above his palm, then lit a flame in his palm to slightly heat the skewers before handing them to Fina.

Fina sniffed the food with her nose and then began to eat it with relish. She had just woken up and hadn't had breakfast yet.

Watching the adorable Little Fina enjoy her roasted lamb, Bell asked William, "Dad, is the smuggling of Magical Creatures like Fina a serious problem?"

"Of course, creatures of Fina's caliber are very rare; you might not encounter one even once every few decades. But there are quite a few other weaker or more common Magical Creatures on the Black Market."

Bell thought for a moment, then asked, "Is there any Galleon left at home?"

"There are many. Although the family has invested a lot of Galleon in development over the past few years, the magical items you invented have also brought more benefits to the family. So our savings have not only not decreased, but have actually increased."

"In that case, let's take some money and buy all the Magical Creatures on the Black Market."

"Buy them all!?" William looked at Bell in surprise. "What do you need so many Magical Creatures for?"

"Nothing much. The Galleon are just sitting there anyway," Bell said casually. "Those creatures that are suitable as pets can be kept at home, and those that aren't can be kept somewhere. Consider it a contribution to Care of Magical Creatures."

William was speechless at Bell's extravagant declaration. He'd said it was for the sake of the family's development, so spending those Galleon was understandable. But now he claimed it was for Care of Magical Creatures, and he was just wasting Galleon like this—it all seemed so stupid!

Bell glanced at William, sensing his father's reluctance. After a moment's thought, he added, "Those Magical Creatures aren't entirely useless; at the very least, they provide a lot of magical materials. Even if they're useless now, it doesn't mean we won't discover new uses for them in the future. In fact, I've always believed that the magical abilities of these Magical Creatures themselves are the truly priceless treasure."

"If the number of Magical Creatures increases in the future, we can find a place to build a Magical Creature Ecological Protection Park, which will not only protect the Magical Creatures, but also provide a good place for wizards to play."

"I want to go to the Magical Creatures Park!" Shanna suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

She had been to the Muggle zoo and loved it because the animals there all looked... delicious.

( ̄ ̄)

If it were a zoo full of Magical Creatures, it would be even more interesting... and tastier too!

Before anyone knew it, a certain adorable little girl had been infected by her older Gege and turned into a little foodie. Upon seeing anything new, her first thought was always, "Can I eat this? Is it tasty?"

Little Fina, who was leisurely eating her roasted meat, suddenly felt a chill and her fur stood on end. After cautiously scanning her surroundings but finding no source of danger, the timid Little Fina, still holding her roasted lamb, burrowed deeper into Bell's arms until Bell held her tighter, at which point she calmed down.

"Oh?" Bell raised an eyebrow. "Then the problem becomes simple. We not only need to purchase Magical Creatures on the Black Market, but we also need to coordinate fully with the Ministry of Magic in various countries to acquire Magical Creatures and build Magical Creature Ecological Protection Park as quickly as possible!"

"I've heard that Mr. Newt Scamander has dedicated his life to protecting Magical Animals. I don't think he'd refuse our kind offer. Perhaps we could invite him to be the first director of the Magical Creature Ecological Protection Park. If he'd be willing to include the Magical Animals he cares for there, that would be wonderful."

"Also, we should keep more Magical Creatures as pets at home. First, they can play with Shanna, and second, they can enhance the castle's defenses."

"But if there are too many Magical Creatures, we won't be able to take care of them all," William questioned.

"Then we should buy more House-elf... No! We should buy all the House-elf we can get! We should also find a way to buy those we can't get! At the same time, we need to increase the number of house- House-elf as soon as possible. There are too few wizards and too few House-elf. This will hinder my plans. We should plan ahead."

"Moreover, House-elf are no less capable of casting spells than wizards, and their ability to Wandless Magic is even stronger. We can train House-elf in combat, and if necessary, equip them with Wand. Just be careful not to let the Ministry of Magic find out. After all, there are no more loyal creatures than House-elf."

William took out his notebook and wrote down everything Bell said.

From the moment his youngest daughter spoke, William, familiar with his son's personality, knew that everything was already a done deal. Even if Shanna wanted the moon, Bell would definitely find a way to get it for her. Wizards aren't Muggle; the Muggle's "I'll get you the moon if you want it" might just be an exaggeration. But with wizards, especially Bell, William had no doubt that he would truly do everything in his power to bring the moon home for Shanna.
