The Erumpent, an Africa predator, has a gray body, resembles a rhinoceros, and can weigh up to one ton.

This is a Magical Creatures with high magic resistance and high health.

Most notably, it has a long, hard horn.

How hard is it? It can even pierce through the Dragon Hide.

The long horn can also shoot out a deadly liquid; if the volume is too large, it can cause the injected object to explode.

When Erumpent mate, the male Erumpent will first insert its horn into the female's back.

After a few loud popping sounds to subdue the female, the subsequent exchange of bodily fluids can begin.

The whole process was full of... artistry.

It's somewhat like in cat movies, where the male cat bites the female cat by the scruff of the neck and then goes on a rampage.

William was quite familiar with the Erumpent.

During last year's Quidditch World Cup, when Barty Crouch Barty Crouch Jr.. released the mascots of various countries, these animals attacked the camps.

Newt even publicly demonstrated how to seduce someone's "wife"... attracting a group of male Erumpent who kept attacking him, trying to poke a thousand holes in him.

William had seen the horn of the Erumpent even earlier, at Luna's house.

Old Lovegood treasured a beast horn, handling it carefully every day and placing it by his pillow at night.

He insisted it was the horn of Crumple-Horned Snorkack!

I'm not afraid that this thing might suddenly explode when I'm having an erection.

That's right, even separated from its original form, the beast horn still retains its explosive properties.

If even a single horn is this dangerous, imagine how dangerous it must be for a living Erumpent!

All the students kept their distance, watching Hagrid interact affectionately with it.

Umbridge, wearing Red Cap and carrying a writing tablet, suddenly appeared.

The students backed away even further because the perfume she was wearing was simply too pungent.

Umbridge has had a lingering odor ever since the bathroom incident.

Umbridge could smell it too. Taking three showers a day wasn't enough; she also had to spray on perfume to cover up the stench.

How can I describe this mixed flavor?

It has a fragrance mixed with a stench, and a stench that lingers with a fragrance; the intense aroma can explode in your nasal cavity in an instant.

You can smell it even from a kilometer away; it's even more pungent than Dungbomb.

Hagrid smelled it too, but pretended not to see Umbridge and continued lecturing.

Umbridge immediately emitted his characteristic fake cough, tactically interrupting his lesson.

"Oh, hello!" Hagrid could only smile.

Did you receive the note I delivered to your cabin this morning?

Umbridge spoke slowly and loudly, as if Hagrid were a creature of low intelligence, unable to understand her.

"Got it!" Hagrid said cheerfully. "I'm glad you found the place! I'm teaching a class right now, today's topic is about Erumpent..."

"I'm sorry!" Umbridge cupped her hands to her ears, frowned, and said loudly, "What did you say?"

Hagrid glanced at her suspiciously, then, his voice booming like a bull, he barked into her ear:

"Professor, you're hard of hearing... I once met an old professor... who taught Defence Against Dark Magic seven years ago, just like you!"

But after teaching for six months, he went deaf, and another six months later, he went blind... You'd better take care of your health!

Hagrid said, pointing to his ear.

The students burst into laughter.

Umbridge's face immediately turned ugly.

Are you, like Trelawney, deliberately cursing me?

She looked down at the writing board, writing and reading aloud, "They need... clumsy... gestures... to communicate... they have intellectual disabilities."

Hagrid looked completely bewildered and was about to say something when he couldn't help but sneeze several times.

He covered his nose and said in disgust:

"Professor Umbridge, do you have body odor? Why are you wearing so much perfume?"

There was a professor... yes, he also taught Defence Against Dark Magic, and he arrived eight years before you.

He arrived two months ago and inexplicably developed body odor, eventually his body was covered in Bundimun that couldn't be cut off even with a knife..."

Umbridge glared at Hagrid, wondering if someone had spoken to him beforehand.

Yes, that was true... Hermione and William taught him not to be polite to Umbridge.

Anyway, Hagrid won't be teaching for long before leaving Hogwarts and returning to the Alps, so there's no need to give her face.

However, Hagrid was indeed very knowledgeable and experienced.

He spent fifty years at Hogwarts and witnessed countless bizarre deaths of each Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor.

For every instance of Umbridge's behavior, he could find a death case to share.

It felt a bit like watching over a thousand episodes of "Death Conan".

Umbridge asked a few more questions, and the Erumpent began to stir restlessly.

Her scent was so overpowering that even the Erumpent found it repulsive.

"Do you know," Umbridge said softly, noticing the Erumpent as well, "That the Ministry of Magic has listed it as a Erumpent animal?"

Hagrid just smiled, not seeming to care much.

"The Erumpent aren't dangerous! Of course, if you really piss them off, they might butt you..."

"To show... pleasure... at... brutality..." Umbridge wrote again in his notebook.

"Oh, no!" Hagrid quickly said, "I mean, cats can scratch people, right?"

Most of the time, the Erumpent is safe...

But no sooner had Hagrid finished speaking than, as if deliberately designed to slap him in the face, the Erumpent stomped its hooves, splashing up countless mud droplets.

Umbridge swallowed hard, took a half-step back, and said in a trembling voice, "Didn't you say it wasn't... dangerous?"

"Good girl, good girl!" Hagrid raised his hand, signaling the Erumpent to be quiet.

He then handed the male venomous Erumpent musk to Umbridge.

"Just apply a little to your palm, and this little girl won't attack you."

They will also be very docile...

Umbridge took the bottle with some skepticism, and seeing that Hagrid was losing control of the Erumpent, he poured the entire bottle of musk into his hand.

"Don't apply too much, just one drop is enough..."

Hagrid turned his head and saw that Umbridge had smeared the entire bottle all over her arm, and her face had turned pale.

This thing can attract female venomous horns to mate.

Even a single drop will make her like you; if you poured out the whole bottle... wouldn't that be incredible?

The Erumpent stared intently at Umbridge, regarding her as a potential mating partner.

It roared wildly, shoved Hagrid aside, and charged desperately toward Umbridge.

Umbridge screamed in terror and ran towards the castle as fast as she could.

Unfortunately, she was short-legged and no match for the speed of the Erumpent. She was caught up after running only three or five meters.

The Erumpent suddenly raised its head, Umbridge let out a cry of agony from the depths of her soul... As fate would have it, that hard horn had struck her from behind with an Unforgivable Curses — the One Thousand Years of Death!

Umbridge let out a mournful cry, gripping the long horn tightly with both hands, as a sharp, piercing pain shot through her groin.

But she dared not let go, for if she fell, she would likely be trampled to death by the beast's hooves.

She was carried forward by the Erumpent for several meters, remaining in a backward-leaning position the whole time.

Another groan escaped her lips as she felt the cold liquid being injected.

The man and beast charged towards them, startling all the students. William calmly said, "Scatter!"

Everyone scattered to the sides, leaving William standing still.

He slightly raised his wand, and the ground melted, turning into a long, smooth stone slide.

The Erumpent slid upwards against the current, its speed beginning to slow.

William performed a somersault, his body as black as a swallow, and landed on the beast's back, landing firmly on his feet.

With a flick of his wrist, a silver sword appeared before everyone's eyes. He gripped it in reverse with his left hand and cleanly severed the beast's horn.

The Erumpent roared, its legs buckling as it fell to the ground. Umbridge was instantly flung away, sliding several meters on its knees before coming to a stop.

William jumped off the Erumpent, gesturing for it to flee the crime scene, before walking towards Umbridge.

She was already pale as a ghost, and was about to pull out the Erumpent's horn when she heard William's light, airy voice behind her.

"Don't pull it out, it'll explode if you do..."

Umbridge's face froze, and he dared not move again.

Two clear tears rolled down her cheeks.
