Voldemort was creating the Inferi Giant... William quickly informed Dumbledore of this.

This is very likely.

During the last Wizarding War, Tom had a history of attacking Muggle Inferi.

Beneath the lake in the Horcrux cave, numerous Inferi guard the area.

Unable to obtain the fighting power of the Giant, he deliberately provoked conflict among the Giant Tribe, then stole their corpses and turned them into Inferi... Voldemort was capable of such a thing.

It's just a bit beneath me.

Little Tom might have some self-respect and choose a more elegant approach, but Voldemort wouldn't.

Upon learning Dumbledore immediately dispatched wizards to the Alps.

That's all he can do for now.

The news arrived too late; the Death Eaters had probably already secretly acquired quite a few corpses.

And don't forget, when the Jungfrau cave collapsed, there were many Giant corpses buried underneath.

If the Death Eaters can get inside and find it, they will truly form an army of Giant Inferi!

As for Hagrid, he will rest at Hogwarts for a while before heading to the Alps to bring the Giant back to the United Kingdom.

They definitely need to be brought along; these are all important combat forces. Once the wizard war begins, the Giant will have to join the battle.

The Wizarding Wars... Since it's called a war, it's not just a few Death Eaters and Order of the Order of the Phoenix members sparring with wands.

This is called a street brawl, not war!

The true wizarding war was a contest between two major powers.

According to Dumbledore, the last Wizarding War even saw the emergence of a dragonflight.

Therefore, once war breaks out, half of the United Kingdom could be engulfed in flames.

Meanwhile, Hagrid's brother, William, planned to find a cave in the Forbidden Forest and use the Undetectable Extension Charm to expand the area and imprison him inside.

Then, magic was placed all around to prevent anyone from getting close.

With Hagrid's return, Umbridge recovered from her injuries and resumed her Defence Against Dark Magic course.

During this time, Snape dismissed all the students Umbridge had indiscriminately recruited, and only taught those young wizards who achieved "O" grades.

Umbridge returned, and was immediately recalled.

This back-and-forth is driving everyone crazy! One minute there's class, the next there's no class. When will this ever end?!

Following the rankings of the 50 greatest Quidditch players of the 20th century, students also created a "Most Hated Professor" ranking.

Umbridge topped the list with the highest number of votes, far surpassing Professor Snape came in second.

To put it simply, even the combined votes of Hagrid and Snape, who came in third, didn't reach Umbridge's level.

This clearly shows how much everyone dislikes Umbridge.

If there's a "Most Hated Professors" ranking, then there's naturally a "Most Popular Professors" ranking.

William, as a substitute teacher, was also eligible to participate in the election.

What's absurd is that Professor Binns is ranked number one on the "most popular professors" list.

Because his class... allows you to sleep!

William's votes were moderate... after all, he's a heartthrob for teenage girls, not teenage boys.

Many boys are unlikely to vote for him.

However, Umbridge didn't care at all whether she was the professor he hated the most.

Her current focus is on vetting professors.

If they can't handle the Stark and Granger, surely they can handle these poor schoolteachers?

After recovering and being discharged from the hospital, her first goal... was Hagrid!

Hagrid disappeared for more than half a year; he must have gone to carry out Dumbledore's mission.

Umbridge set her sights on Hagrid, intending to target him.

Because, based on the results of her investigation:

This Half-blood Giant's mouth was as loose as a belt, and his intelligence was as dull as if it had been coated with lubricant.

Not all students reacted enthusiastically to Hagrid's return.

Many people prefer Professor Grubbly-Plank's classes.

Otherwise, Hagrid wouldn't be third on the list of "most hated professors".

On Tuesday, William and Cho appeared in a class about protecting Fantastic Beasts.

Hagrid's condition worsened; his original wounds grew larger, and some areas were still bleeding.

He was delighted to see William and Autumn.

The twins had given up on his advanced class, while Cedric continued, only hoping to take the opportunity to fleece Magical Creatures and make wands.

Hagrid called them a bunch of heartless bastards.

William was overjoyed that Qiu could continue playing.

"Hagrid, have you used the Potions I gave you?" William asked.

"I used it, but..." Hagrid sighed, "I went to see Grawp a few more times, and I got beaten up, so my wounds won't heal."

"You can't go anymore," Qiu said. "Just throw some food in every day."

She and Cedric had already learned about the Giant from William.

To be honest, she really liked Fluffy, after all, she raised him herself.

The second year's Norbert was outrageous enough, then there was the Blast-Ended Skrewt last year, and now we have a Giant brother... It's just too ridiculous.

"I'm going to teach Grawp English... He's learned a few more words these past few days, and he can even call you all by your names."

Hagrid said with a chuckle.

"Qiu, you can sing lullabies to Grawp sometime; he'll definitely love it as much as Fluffy does."

"I'd be happy to sing him a requiem!" Qiu muttered to William from behind.

William almost burst out laughing.

Qiu continued her sharp tongue, "I can also play the suona and hire people to carry his coffin for eighteen miles!"

The students arrived quickly.

"Ready?" Hagrid asked cheerfully, scanning the entire class.

"I've prepared a special gift for your advanced sixth-grade class."

This is an extremely rare and adorable Magical Creatures.

He stroked his beard smugly.

"Are you sure they're tamed?" Eloise asked fearfully.

Hagrid said it was cute last time, so he took them to see the Blast-Ended Skrewt.

"Of course it's tamed," Hagrid reassured him.

"Then what happened to your face?" McLaggen asked.

"I fell and hurt myself!" Hagrid explained.

"Alright, Gryffindor students, be brave! Look at William and Cho, they're Ravenclaw students, and they're not afraid!"

After walking for about ten minutes, the group arrived at a lush lawn.

Hagrid pulled out a small bottle, which emitted a strange smell.

Does anyone know what this is?

Seeing that the conversation was about to fall into an awkward silence, William had no choice but to say:

"Erumpent musk is a liquid secreted by Erumpent that can be used to attract female Erumpent."

"That's right, Ravenclaw five points!" Hagrid happily poured some out and smeared it on his palm.

Many people used tree trunks as cover, nervously looking around and cautiously approaching him, as if guarding against being attacked at any moment.

"Come closer, come closer," Hagrid encouraged. "Now, it will be drawn by the scent of musk."

He turned around and made a strange, snoring sound that echoed through the grass, like the cry of Troll.

No one laughed; most of the students seemed too frightened to make a sound.

Hagrid called out again, and a minute passed, during which the students nervously peered around.

Finally, a huge, Yuanpang, rhinoceros-like animal appeared, with a massive horn protruding from its forehead.

It stared at Hagrid, seemingly about to go into heat.
