Harry Potter: Glory of the King

Chapter 46: Magic animal

After dinner, Ona and others returned to the tower to prepare the items needed for the afternoon class. First is the textbook, and then there are dragon leather gloves and wizard hats—the sun is shining outside today. During the meal, although the sun is shining, there is the brightness of the sun but not the temperature of the sun. This proves the fact that the auditorium has a ceiling from the side.

In the afternoon, the first class is "Fantastic Animals Class", and the second class is herbal medicine. Each wizard's robe comes with pockets, basically with a certain amount of space magic-no wonder the price of uniforms is high, basically 5 Kanon set. Think of a magic wand of 7 gallons, a space suitcase of 50 gallons, and think of the smooth wheel 2000-2899 gallons!

The prices in the Wizarding World are really incomprehensible, but think about it, the cheapest Meteor flying broomstick costs 199 gallons, and due to long-term use, it is prone to stalls and low flying issues, so it has been withdrawn from the market early — But Ron’s family uses this kind of broomstick. Many wizard families use this broom as a toy for their children. It is not fast and does not fly high, making it suitable for novices to practice. The flying broomsticks of the common sweep series are about 1000-2000 gallons, and the best sweeping broomstick is 1999 gallons. However, considering the scarcity of sports in the wizarding world, it is somewhat acceptable.

Thinking wildly, Ona and others quickly found the classroom-it is said that the first to second grades of this course are taught as theory courses, and it is possible to start contact with living bodies in the third grade.

The afternoon class should be with Hufflepuff, and there are obviously more people. Hermione still took Glory to the front row, and Ona sat beside them.

Harry seemed to be having some trouble, he seemed relieved as soon as he entered the classroom, and Ron looked at him a little enviously.

"What's the matter?" Ona asked.

"You don't know!" Harry said. "The students in other grades would rather wait outside the classroom, but also look at me when I go by..."

"How great is this!" Ron said to You Rongyan. "I envy you so much."

"..." Harry glanced at Ron distressedly, and said nothing in the end.

"Class." Just when the time came, an elderly witch walked into the classroom with her gray hair cut short and her chin very prominent. She was holding her pipe in her mouth, as if in a hurry.

"I'll be in charge of your magical animal course." The witch reluctantly put down her pipe. "My name is Wilmina Grapland. Our course is very simple. Just eat this book."

Grapland promoted the book, "Newt Scamander, an excellent researcher of magical animals. His book is also very interesting. You might as well take a look at it-I'll ask him to sign for you if I have the opportunity. No, I asked Professor Dumbledore to come forward. He wrote the preface to this book."

I saw many students’ eyes light up, especially Hufflepuff’s students—Newt Scamander used to study at Hufflepuff College, but was later expelled, and Professor Dumbledore gave it to him at the time. great help.

"Next we will repeat the same old tune-although this book is very interesting, but think about it, every year I have to repeat the content twice, really..." Grapland couldn't help but took a sip of the pipe.

"First, let's talk about what an animal is." Grapland spit out the smoke ring, which seemed to make her less annoying. "There are three situations listed in the book: werewolves, horsemen, and trolls. If we are lucky, we will all meet-of course, I don't think meeting a werewolf is a lucky thing."

Grapland drew his magic wand and waved it, and the familiar picture—the chalk jumped to the blackboard and started to write himself. "It is introduced in the book that in the 14th century, Burdock Malden tried to define that any member of the wizarding world who walks on two legs can be regarded as a person, but he was wrong. It’s mentioned in "History", so I won’t say much, naturally there will be... the professor told you.

"Then it was Mrs. Alfreda Cragg. She declared that a creature that speaks human language can be defined as a person, but this meeting also failed. It was not until 1881 that the Minister of Magic Grogans Puton issued an order that humans are any creatures that have enough intelligence to understand the laws of the magic society and bear part of the responsibilities in the process of making these laws. Murlocs were recognized as humans for the first time, although they gave up after a year Trolls, fairies, elves, and goblins are all classified as animals. There were even extremists who tried to identify Muggles as animals. "Grapland took a mouthful of disdain. "To be honest, Muggles just don't know how to magic, and wizards are just a special group of Muggles. Not to mention this, the horses refused to be humans and demanded to maintain their animal identities. As for the werewolves, they have not yet been defined. However. The human being bitten by a werewolf—whether it is a wizard or a Muggle, is highly likely to transform into a werewolf—similarly to vampires.

Everyone is a little scared-after all, no one wants to become a non-human being.

"Professor!" Hermione raised her hand first this time.

"Yeah, say." Grapland gestured for Hermione to speak with his pipe in his mouth.

"Professor, I want to ask, do ghosts count as humans?"

"Interesting." Grapland shrugged. "The textbook says that the ghost was rejected at the first meeting. The reason was whether it walked on two legs and left by himself the second time. As for the third time, to be honest, By definition, they can be regarded as humans—even dead. They can think. But in the end they are not defined as animals because they are already dead."

Grapland briefly explained, "You are?"

"Hermione Granger."

"Well, I saw it. Gryffindor adds 1 point." Grapland asked Hermione to sit down. Before sitting down, Hermione glanced at Ona proudly.

"Let’s continue. Many magical animals have been seen by Muggles, such as fire dragons, lion eagles, unicorns, phoenixes, horsemen, etc. After seven weeks of discussion, it was finally decided to hide 27 species of animals. Later, more of them were hidden—and some were extinct. As Muggles continue to invade the original no man’s land, now the habitat of magical animals Less and less, and the wizards continue to kill some magical animals that involve interests, just for the flesh and hair, etc., so our course has changed from the earliest magical animal course to a protection course—this is also a kind of irony."

"In 1750, the "International Magical Secrecy Act" added Article 73. For you to read the book, I am too lazy to repeat it and must take the test." Grapland said lazily, "The Ilfracombe incident in 1932 was also very famous. Yes, it is a must."

"In addition, the snowmen in Tibet and the Loch Ness horse-shaped monster in Scotland are often seen by Muggles-a compulsory test." Grapland looked at all the little wizards with satisfaction. "If you are interested in animals, you may wish to study our course. The Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures is the second largest department of the Ministry of Magic, second only to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and requires many wizards to join each year. They are specifically responsible for taking Various methods are used to respond to the diverse needs of many animals."
