Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 52 Hagrid's Eight-eyed Spider

After all, the magic world is still a place where strength speaks. Since Professor Brian easily brought down Fred and George in class, Amosta's reputation has surpassed that of Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape, and he has become a little wizard The most feared wizard in our hearts.

Just like just now, when he appeared in the prefect's bathroom on the sixth floor, it seemed like a ferocious fire dragon had rushed into the huge bathroom. The prefects of each college hid in the corner of the bathtub close together, Amo During Star's entire washing process, no one dared to make a sound.

It wasn't until Amosta, who had hurriedly solved the hygiene problem, left with a helpless sigh, that the atmosphere in the bathroom became active.

"Why doesn't Professor Blaine go to the bathroom dedicated to professors?"

Oliver Wood, with a lot of colorful bubbles on his head, suddenly collapsed in the water, and looked at Percy, who was looking at Amosta with reverence from the beginning to the end, with lingering fear.

In fact, this remark wronged Amosta, not because he deliberately wanted to show off his prestige in front of the little wizards, but because he had no idea that there was a special bath for professors in the castle, and Professor McGonagall arranged for him. He didn't mention this to him when he was in the office and residence, and even this bathroom was accidentally inquired about by Amosta when he was in school.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Amosta, who had cleaned up and changed into a clean wizard robe, knocked on the door of Dumbledore's office, and walked into the office under Dumbledore's 'eager gaze'.

"I think this should be the first time you came to my office on your own initiative after returning to Hogwarts, right, Amostar?"

Dumbledore behind the desk rested his hands under his chin, looking at Amosta who was smiling cautiously, his bright eyes were filled with relief.

Of course, if I have nothing to do, why do I keep wandering around you!
This thought flashed in Amosta's mind. He is actually a very insecure person, and Dumbledore, as the only wizard in Hogwarts who can pose a threat to his life, of course he has to fight with Dumbledore keep distance.

"That's right, Headmaster Dumbledore—"

After exchanging greetings with Dumbledore against the scalp, Amosta slowly expressed his purpose of coming,
"According to my planned teaching progress, principal, I plan to let the little wizards of the three grades try to deal with some magical creatures by themselves after the start of March, according to their strength levels. What do you think?"

"You are the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Amostar, and you have every right to do this yourself." Dumbledore smiled and gave his reply very enlightenedly.

"Ahem--"

Amosta clenched his fist under his nose and coughed twice, his expression looked unnatural, "The problem is, what I plan to let them deal with, well, I think it's better to negotiate with you in advance."

Three minutes later, when Amosta made his plan clear, Dumbledore, who had just let it go, was no longer so relaxed, but frowned in distress,
"It is indeed a radical and dangerous plan, Amosta, you should know that the level of young wizards is limited, is this... This is indeed a decision you made after careful consideration."

"No decent talents can be cultivated in a comfortable cradle, Principal Dumbledore, I know that the upper limit of the abilities of little wizards is there, but because of this, courage and determination in the face of danger are particularly important, since Professor McGonagall hopes Seeing that little wizards can really improve, I think it is acceptable to take risks."

For a fellow as old and sophisticated as Dumbledore, there was no reason that was new and unheard of before him, but the misfortunes of his magnificent hundred years had forged his cautious character.

But in the end, Dumbledore showed his determination.

"I'll talk to Minerva about this, I'm sure she'll understand, but Amosta, in order to make sure there won't be any accidents, I suggest you call Severus with you during class, he is trustworthy."

Amosta breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Headmaster Dumbledore for his support, while Dumbledore, who was about to ponder, said hesitantly,

"But about the eight-eyed spider you mentioned, I think you should say hello to Hagrid first."

Amosta was stunned, but soon, he reacted sharply,

"You mean, Hagrid kept those eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest?"

After Dumbledore gave an affirmative answer, Amosta shook his head and smiled wryly,
"Hagrid is particularly fond of those huge and dangerous magical animals. I heard about them when I was in school, but I didn't expect that he could even treat ugly creatures like eight-eyed spiders that are not friendly to wizards as pets. It's really amazing. be surprised!"

"Perhaps it is his pure and untainted heart that allows Hagrid to have the favor of those lovely creatures who share the world with wizards."

Dumbledore's speeches are always so wise, he smiled and said to Amosta, "However, he did pay a lot for it."

An hour later, Amosta walked out of Principal Dumbledore's office with heavy steps, and stood in front of the stone monster at the door of the office. The facial expression is extremely dignified.

Amosta, who originally only asked Dumbledore for instructions on the magical creatures to be used in class, did not expect to hear such valuable information tonight.

Yes, Amosta knew that Hagrid was expelled from Hogwarts for a long time, but he never expected that the reason for Hagrid's expulsion was that he met him on the night before Christmas in the fifth grade Eight-eyed spider.

What surprised him even more was that this incident had something to do with the Chamber of Secrets and Voldemort!
No wonder Hagrid was so nervous when he met himself returning to Hogwarts as an investigator during the Christmas holidays before the start of this semester, and even misunderstood that the Ministry of Magic had sent him back. There was a flash of enlightenment.

Although Dumbledore didn't say it clearly in his words, Amosta would not fail to understand what he meant. 50 years ago, it was not Hagrid who opened the secret room, but Tom Riddle who reported Hagrid. .

When Amosta asked about the origin of this Tom Riddle, Dumbledore's answer shocked Amosta, but when he came back to his senses, he thought it was reasonable.

The Dark Lord is the descendant of Slytherin, which is indeed a logical thing. Even, Amostar suspects that the relationship between Voldemort and Salazar Slytherin is probably not just a companion on the road of faith, but a more intimate relationship.
Just like the crazy rumors in the castle before, Harry Potter and Slytherin have a blood relationship.

"The possibility of innate awakening of this unique talent of Parseltongue is very small, and the probability is that it is a hidden power in the blood. Slytherin may be the ancestor of Voldemort. But the key is that Potter and Voldemort can also have relatives relation?"

The Amostar Thinker who started walking again.

Dumbledore must know more, but for various reasons, he didn't reveal it to Amosta, of course, the more he knows, the deeper he sinks, Amosta is very happy to see Dumbledore Keep it a secret from him, rather than rushing to drag him down.

"Either way, you need to talk to Hagrid—"

Standing in front of the office window, quietly looking at the flames on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, this thought crossed Amosta's mind.
