Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts
#231 - Professor Kettleburn
"What, are you saying there's a group of poor little creatures waiting to be rescued? Damn it, those damned smugglers wouldn't know how to take care of magical creatures if their lives depended on it. Every year, it seems like some poor things die during smuggling. Take me there quickly, I want to see them myself!" Professor Kettleburn, whose hair was already turning gray, looked furious after hearing Anduin's description, and immediately wanted to go with him.
"Let us bring them back first. Your body can't handle such a journey," Anduin said helplessly, looking at the old professor with a prosthetic leg and a cane.
"I'm not so old that I can't move. Stop talking nonsense and lead the way. It's a good thing you didn't rashly release them directly, otherwise the sudden change in environment alone would be enough to kill them," Kettleburn said, controlling his prosthetic leg with magic, and nimbly darted to Anduin's side.
"This…" Anduin looked at the stubborn old professor, exchanged a speechless glance with Hagrid, and could only reluctantly agree.
"How about this, I'll ride my flying motorcycle and take the professor, and Anduin, you ride your flying broomstick and lead the way," Hagrid suggested, slapping his thigh.
"Well, alright," Anduin had no choice but to nod, seeing that Hagrid didn't object either.
Subsequently, the three set off according to plan. Hagrid pushed out the motorcycle Sirius had given him, carrying Professor Kettleburn, whose face was full of wrinkles but whose spirits were high, and followed closely behind Anduin, flying towards the location of the underground cave.
"By the way, Professor, you haven't answered the question we asked you earlier, about the werewolf cub," Kettleburn was too excited before and hurriedly dragged Anduin to leave, completely ignoring the question Anduin asked.
At this time, Professor Kettleburn was sitting hunched over in the sidecar of the motorcycle, wearing a pair of windproof glasses, and after thinking for a moment after hearing Anduin's question, he looked at him.
"According to research, the offspring of werewolves with lycanthropy, whether in human or wolf form, do not carry the lycanthropy virus. However, just to be safe, I will do a virus test on the spot later. Speaking of which, that little wolf named Hogg can actually talk, which is really special," Kettleburn's excitement grew stronger and stronger as he said this, and he couldn't wait to see those little darlings.
After hearing the professor's explanation, Anduin nodded slightly in relief, then mobilized his magic power and gave his flying broomstick a boost, rushing out at high speed. His broomstick was of average quality, actually much slower than the flying motorcycle, so he could only provide his own boost to speed things up.
The three flew in a straight line through the air, and with the constant use of extreme speed, it didn't take too long, only a little over an hour to reach the boulder.
After landing, Anduin immediately found Kiki, who was hiding with the help of the shimmering cloak, and seemed to be faithfully completing her task.
Seeing her master, Kiki ran forward, bouncing and jumping, "Master, Kiki has been watching that big rock, no one has approached."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Kiki. Take a rest first, and come with us into the cave later, we may need your help," Anduin took the cloak and praised her with a nod.
"Yes, Master, Kiki promises to complete the task." Now Kiki was standing upright, with less of the timidity she had before, but there was still some awkwardness in her expression.
"Anduin, how come you suddenly have a house elf after just one night?" Hagrid rubbed his round belly. He and Professor Kettleburn had casually eaten something while riding the motorcycle earlier, and he was still a little bloated.
"Kiki was picked up by me while tracking those werewolves. Her former master was brutally killed by werewolves," Anduin briefly explained Kiki's story to them.
"Those werewolves are full of killing intent and have no rationality. By the way, quickly take us to see those little creatures that are being held. Some children will get sick if they stay in confined spaces for too long," Kettleburn was already calling these magical creatures children at this time, and shouted anxiously.
Seeing this, Anduin did not delay, and quickly pushed open the flat stone, then used a levitation charm to send Professor Kettleburn into the tunnel, and then the group walked inside together.
Fortunately, this tunnel was built high enough, otherwise Hagrid would have been uncomfortable. Even so, Hagrid had to lower his head to avoid hitting his head.
Compared to the early morning, the magical creatures imprisoned in the cave had all woken up. At this time, they seemed to be moaning in pain due to hunger or discomfort, stirring up the entire cave.
"Oh dear!" Professor Kettleburn's pace quickened after hearing the magical creatures' wails, and he exclaimed when he saw the miserable state of these magical creatures.
"Oh, look at these poor little darlings, what on earth have those damned werewolves done to them?" Hagrid also aroused the maiden's heart in his body at this time, especially after seeing the manticore covered in wounds, his eyes lit up, calling the other party a little darling, and if Anduin hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to open the iron gate and release it now.
"Benefactor, you're back." Just as the two magical animal enthusiasts were checking on the side, Hogg was also very excited to see Anduin's appearance, and quickly greeted him.
In Hogg's eyes, although the young wizard in front of him had indirectly avenged himself, he didn't know how his special existence would be dealt with, so his heart was both excited and uneasy.
Anduin saw that Hogg's mental state was not bad at this time, like a husky eager to tear down a house staring at a fur sofa with wide eyes, uh, thinking about it this way, it was a bit creepy.
"Professor," he turned his head and called Professor Kettleburn, then gestured towards Hogg, meaning that this was the little werewolf he had mentioned to him before.
Reminded by Anduin, Kettleburn also turned his attention to Hogg at this time, and then showed an expression of caring for his own child and stepped forward to chat.
After learning about Hogg's background and situation, Kettleburn took out a bottle filled with blue liquid from his body, then took some saliva from Hogg, poured it into the reagent, and then performed a series of complicated operations before turning back to face Anduin.
"He does not have the lycanthropy virus, he is safe," Kettleburn said definitively.
