The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 474 Hagrid Wants To Be A Mother
After being reminded by Albert, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan stopped thinking about leaking what happened in the dungeon.

However, this interesting adventure still made them very excited.

The four originally planned to sneak to Hogsmeade on Easter Day to have a good time, but just after breakfast, Wood cruelly announced to them that they would have Quidditch training later.

"Doesn't Wood have to review?" Lee Jordan looked at Fred and George who were dragged away by Wood sympathetically, and asked in confusion.

Fifth grade students are working hard on their homework and preparing for their upcoming exams.

"Wood is going to join the Quidditch team after graduation. It is more important to train your skills than test scores." Albert replied absent-mindedly.

He was surprised that he hadn't received a letter from Hagrid. It stands to reason that Hagrid should have got the dragon eggs, right?

Could it be that there was an accident?
"I'm going to find Hagrid, shall we go together?"

Albert asked Lee Jordan if he would go with him to the hunting ground guard cabin to find Hagrid for tea.

Unsurprisingly, Lee Jordan casually made an excuse for himself, saying that after going to the library with Shanna to do homework, Albert didn't bother to expose it, so he went to Hagrid by himself.

A few minutes later, Albert raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door of the guard's hut in the hunting ground. The sound of teeth scratching the door came from the room, but there seemed to be no one inside?
"Hagrid, are you in there?" Albert knocked on the door again, but Hagrid never opened the door.

He walked around the hut and found that the windows of the room were closed.

In desperation, Albert could only take out his wand and opened the door by himself.

Although it was very rude to do so, Albert opened the door and went in by himself in order to make sure whether Hagrid had got the dragon eggs.

As soon as the wooden door was opened, Ya Ya rushed towards Albert, stood up high and wanted to lick his face, but after being stopped by Albert, he circled around him.

Hagrid was still sleeping, so he must have been drunk last night.

No wonder I didn't write to myself.

The room was filled with a strong sour smell. Albert reached out his hand to cover his mouth and nose, raised his wand and waved it lightly, opening all the windows in the room, sweeping away the strange smell inside.

As Albert walked towards the bed, he noticed that Hagrid was holding a basket in his hand, and there was an... egg in the basket.

"It seems that Hagrid has managed to get that dragon egg!"

After Albert saw the egg, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and shouted to Hagrid who was still sleeping soundly on the bed: "Hagrid, if you don't get up again, the dragon egg will be stolen."

The next moment, Hagrid suddenly woke up from his sleep, checked his basket in a panic, saw that the dragon egg was still there, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and looked angrily at the guy who had just frightened him.

"Are you awake?" Albert greeted Hagrid with a smile.

"Why are you here?" Hagrid covered his yawn with his hands, and looked at Albert angrily, who really surprised him just now.

"Of course I want to see if my prediction is accurate." Albert stretched out his hand to scratch Fang Fang's ear, his eyes fell on the dragon eggs in the basket, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself: "Look Come on, my prophecy is quite accurate."

"Yeah, it's really accurate. I played cards with a peddler and won this dragon egg from him." Hagrid excitedly told Albert what happened last night.

"Congratulations, you finally got your wish." Albert asked, "Next, what are you going to do, hatch the dragon?"

"Yeah, I want to hatch it." Hagrid gently stroked the dragon egg in his hand like a baby, "I've even thought of a name, I'm going to call it Norbert.

"Well, a good name." Albert scratched his chin, looked up at Hagrid, and reminded him kindly: "You need to hatch him first, and before that, you need to figure out that this is a What kind of dragon's egg is it? Then find out what kind of food this dragon needs to feed it when it is young, and make sure that the little dragon will not die because of your improper care when it is born. Very fragile, even a dragon."

"Albert, help me." Hagrid stopped touching the dragon's egg and asked Albert for help. He also realized that it was not easy to take care of a dragon.

At least, Hagrid had no experience raising dragons.

"You need to go to the library to find a way to raise dragons." Albert glanced at the new task that appeared on the task panel: The Birth of Norbert
Your good friend Hagrid got a dragon egg, but he has no experience in hatching and taking care of fire dragons. Now he asks for your help. As a friend, you may be able to help him hatch that dragon egg.

Reward: 1000 experience, Hagrid favorability +10.

Although the experience rewarded by the mission is not much, Albert is quite satisfied with it.

At least, it is much better than the leaker task not long ago, and it is easy to complete.

After Hagrid finished speaking, Albert took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Hagrid. Inside was the book about raising dragons that Albert found in the library.

"This is for you, you go to the library to borrow books yourself. You are an expert in raising these dangerous magical creatures, and the help I can provide you is very limited."

Hagrid was also taken aback, took a look at the parchment, and there were four books written on it:
Types of European Dragons, From Hatching to Nirvana, A Guide to Raising Dragons, Raising Dragons for Fun and Profit.

"Of course, the books may be a bit dated, but the content should still be useful."

"Thank you, I knew you were the most reliable." Hagrid wanted to step forward to give Albert a hug, but he avoided him cleverly.

Albert didn't want the sour-smelling Hagrid to give him a hug.

"However, I need to remind you in advance, Hagrid." Albert sat back on the chair, stared into Hagrid's eyes and said, "Don't blame me for speaking harshly."

"what's up?"

"No matter what kind of dragon you are raising, it only takes a week to grow two or three times. Within a month, you can hardly hide it from other people." Albert noticed Hagrid's dodging eyes and said with a sigh : "I told you earlier, I don't think you want to hear it, but I still need to tell you. The time you take care of Noble is destined not to be too long, and then you need to ask the principal to help send the dragon away."

Hagrid opened his mouth, he knew Albert was right, but he was unwilling to accept such a fact.

"As for how long you take care of Noble, it all depends on your secrecy. The more people know about this matter, the harder it is to hide the matter of raising dragons." Albert reminded again: "The best The way is to hatch the dragon eggs quietly, and then send the raised fire dragon away, so as not to cause trouble for the principal, you have to be mentally prepared."

After listening to Albert's words, Hagrid was so sad that he shed tears like a child.

Albert looked at the sad Hagrid, and couldn't help shaking his head, how could he feel that he had become a bad person.

At this moment, an owl flew in from the window, landed on the table in front of Albert, and handed him a letter.

"Your letter?" Hagrid noticed the owl too.

"Well, my letter."

Albert found out that the letter was written by Mr. Broad, telling him to attend tonight's party, and said that he had contacted Professor McGonagall and could use her fireplace to go to the destination.
