Hogwarts: I am Harry's eldest cousin

Hagrid hesitated for a long time and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

He has always been stubborn in doing things and never considers future problems.

He knew it was illegal, but he still wanted to keep it.

"Hagrid, have you thought about what to do when it's born?"

Harry also stared at the dragon eggs with curiosity, but he was not as obsessed as Ron and Malfoy. After all, he did not grow up in the wizarding world. Dragons gave him the same feeling as the animals in the zoo. Aren't they just giant lizards that can breathe fire?

"Of course I keep it at home. I have learned a lot of ways to raise dragons. I have also prepared brandy and chicken blood. This is a Norwegian Ridgeback, which is very rare."

"But the Norwegian Ridgeback is a fire dragon and your house is a wooden house."

Ron looked around the house. He didn't think the house could withstand a breath from a dragon.

However, Hagrid ignored it and continued to hum a little tune and stir the fire, as if he didn't hear what Ron said at all.

Everyone confirmed once again that Hagrid never considered anything before doing it.

"Why don't you sell it to me? I'll pay any price!"

Malfoy offered his suggestion.

"No way! I'm not selling it to a Malfoy!"

Hagrid shouted excitedly, but just after he finished speaking, he realized that his tone was too harsh. After all, it was Lucius Malfoy, not Draco Malfoy, so he added: "But you can come and see it."

"Really?!"

Malfoy, who was a little depressed because of the rejection, suddenly perked up again.

Until he left, Malfoy's eyes were still fixed on the fire.

He really likes dragons.

Unfortunately, little Malfoy didn't notice that there was another pair of eyes behind him, looking at the dragon egg with even hotter eyes than his.

In the days that followed, whenever someone mentioned going to the Forbidden Forest to see Hagrid, Malfoy was definitely the most enthusiastic one, more enthusiastic than Ron and Harry combined, and he never uttered a word of disdain again.

The dragon egg brought a little comfort to the boring and busy life of the morning exercise team.

Time passed quickly, and the date agreed with Dumbledore was getting closer.

One morning, just after finishing their exercise, Hedwig brought them a note.

Four words in total: "It's about to be born."

After finishing the course, several people came to Hagrid's cabin.

Just as he said, the little dragon is about to be born.

A small crack appeared on the dragon egg, which kept shaking. As time went by, the amplitude became larger and larger, accompanied by a crackling sound. With a sharp scraping sound, a wrinkled creature drilled out of the dragon egg.

Xiaolong sneezed, and a few sparks came out of his nose.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?"

Hagrid muttered, he reached out a hand and touched the dragon's head. The dragon bit his finger with incredible precision, revealing its sharp fangs.

"Oh my god, look, it knows its mother!"

"Want to touch it?"

Ron looked at himself, then at the sharp teeth in the dragon's mouth: "I don't think so."

Rather than thinking of Hagrid as its mother, the little dragon would think of her as food.

'Pah, wood, tastes bad.'

Dudley heard the little dragon say that it couldn't bite through Hagrid's skin.

Fantastic Beast Language, activated.

"Hagrid, if I remember correctly, it would take less than a month for a Norwegian Ridgeback to grow to the size of your room."

Neville said in a muffled voice that he had gone to see the breeding of Norwegian Ridgebacks.

The truth was even more exaggerated than what Neville said. The little dragon grew at least three times in size in just one week. It took less than a month. In just one week, Hagrid could no longer keep the little dragon at home.

One breath in particular almost set the hut on fire, which made Hagrid sober up a lot.

Whether Xiaolong stays or goes is really a problem.

Everyone gathered in a circle and started discussing.

Malfoy once again put forward his opinion: "Why not give it to me? My manor is quite big."

"Brother." Before he could finish his suggestion, he was interrupted by Dudley: "Your father Lucius would not agree. On the contrary, he would report Hagrid. Besides, Malfoy Manor cannot keep a dragon."

"Your father has never had a good relationship with Professor Dumbledore."

What Dudley said was true. Unless Draco could truly become the steward of the Malfoy family, this would not be a consideration.

"My suggestion is to keep it in the Forbidden Forest."

The Forbidden Forest is a very mythical place. No matter which book about magical creatures you read, it records that there are a large number of stories about magical creatures gathered here, including unicorns, eight-eyed spiders, night riders, hippogriffs, griffins, etc. It is said that there are dragons living deep in the Forbidden Forest.

Never disturb the sleeping dragon, this is the school motto of Hogwarts.

Releasing the little dragon back into the forbidden forest is, in a sense, also allowing it to return to nature.

"But it's too small."

"It will die without my care," said Hagrid.

"Not really." Dudley shook his head. "As long as there is enough food, a Norwegian Ridgeback can complete its growth period in just one month."

"I think you should know this better than me."

The growth rate of dragons in this world is extremely fast, unlike other fantasy worlds, which need hundreds or even thousands of years to settle. Of course, in contrast, the dragons in this world are not as described in other fantasy worlds, with bodies hundreds or thousands of meters long, super high IQs, and exaggerated dragon language magic.

Although it is still very powerful, it is not as powerful as imagined.

"If you don't consider yourself, you should also consider Professor Dumbledore."

"I suppose you don't want to cause him any trouble?"

"Okay, but I can't bear to part with it."

Hagrid seemed to be persuaded by Dudley, and he really didn't want to cause trouble for Dumbledore.

"You can keep it in the shallow layer of the Forbidden Forest first. When it grows up, it will leave on its own. If you have a deep enough bond with it, maybe it will come to see you."

Hagrid agreed to Dudley's suggestion.

A week later, when the little dragon had grown to the size that the hut could accommodate, Hagrid took it to the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest.

Less than three days later, Xiaolong disappeared without a trace.

"Noble is gone, and he doesn't miss his mother anymore."

At first Hagrid was very sad and blew his nose a lot, but this phenomenon did not last for a few days, and his attention was attracted by another piece of news.

News spread that a man-headed, lion-bodied, scorpion-tailed beast had appeared in the woods north of the Forbidden Forest.

After hearing the news, Hagrid ran to the north with Fang excitedly to wait.

He said he wanted to artificially breed a manticore with a human head, a lion body and a scorpion tail.

At midnight, on a full moon night, the bright moonlight could not penetrate the dense dark forest.

The forbidden forest composed of these black trees is like a huge black hole, isolated from the world.

The spots of light on the butts of fireflies and the magical plants that glow at night make the whole forest look less dark with their insignificant light, and there are constant chirping and rustling sounds coming from all around.

It is the rustling sound of leaves blown by the wind, and also the calls of certain nocturnal creatures when they are active.

It completely fits the impression of a scary forest in a fairy tale.

A strong light came in the form of a circle, illuminating half of the forest. The magical creatures illuminated by the light screamed in fear and disappeared into the darkness.

powerful torch?

There's no way Hogwarts could have something like that.

That is the magic of light.

Chapter 95 It's You, Charizard

Hogwarts Castle is cast under a spell. Precision electronic products made by ordinary people cannot be used inside, even flashlights cannot be used. Only tools such as old-fashioned cameras (Colin's camera in the original book) are not affected.

Dudley was seen stretching out a finger, with a strong light bursting out from the fingertip, achieving the effect of a strong flashlight, and walking casually in the dangerous forbidden forest.

Illumination, the only magic Dudley could perform, had now become a masterpiece.

Not only his fingertips, but as long as he wanted, he could make any part of his body glow.

Normally, Dudley seldom came to the Forbidden Forest at night. Not only was the Forbidden Forest filled with dangers at night, but there were also not many materials to pick. There were also fewer nocturnal magical plants than during the day.

But he didn't come here for the materials.

Dudley walked to a slightly remote and empty place deep in the Forbidden Forest. Dudley pointed his fingertips to the sky and waved them around a few times.

"Roar!"

Not long after, a low roar was heard from the distant sky, and then a winged creature almost as tall as Dudley slowly fell from the sky.

"You've grown up again, Charizard."

Dudley whispered, patting the other's scaly body.

Sharp-edged and extremely hard.

The creature that Dudley called a fire-breathing dragon was Norbert, who was hatched from a dragon egg.

"Roar!" The little dragon roared at Dudley in dissatisfaction.

'That's ugly.'

The little dragon used the simplest words to express his dissatisfaction with the name "Charizard". In fact, he didn't like either Norbert or Charizard.

It thought it should have a more domineering name, such as Neltharion. It liked the name the moment it heard it from Dali. Unfortunately, its opinion was selectively ignored by Dali. After all, Neltharion was already dead, and Charizard was the real father of the version.

In this world, although the IQ of dragons is not as high as described in the fantasy world, they still have a certain degree of wisdom and are not pure beasts. At least they know what kind of creature they are, and when they saw Hagrid, they never thought of him as their mother.

This discontented mood continued until Dudley pulled a small bag out of his bag.

"Roar!"

'Give me!'

The little dragon stared at the small bag in Dudley's hand. The fragrance emanating from the bag made his mouth unconsciously secrete a large amount of saliva.

Magical Creature Rations - For Reptiles Only.

The little dragon wanted to eat it very much, but it didn't dare to snatch it because the human in front of it had the power to suppress it easily.

It still remembers that at the beginning, it wanted to snatch the delicious food from the other party by force, but was pressed to the ground by the other party with one hand and couldn't get up for a long time. The terrifying power is still fresh in its memory.

Even now that I have grown up, I still dare not act rashly.

When I grow up, I will definitely teach this person who dares to tease me a lesson.

"Do you want to eat it?" Dudley gently opened a hole in the cloth bag, and the fragrance immediately filled the air.

"If you want to eat, you must say please next time, and remember that I am your owner."

Despicable human, don't even think about making me surrender. It's just a mere ration. I won't do that even if I die outside.

Dudley silently opened the slit of the bag again, and the fragrance became stronger.

"Roar!"

'Owner!'

This little dragon that Hagrid couldn't bear to let go has now been kidnapped by Dudley. Hagrid hurt him in the past, so it wouldn't be too much to accept a dragon as a pet as an apology, right?

Eat, eat, eat, this was the only thought in Xiaolong's mind.

Bang bang bang.

The little dragon's tail kept hitting the ground, making the surrounding grass a mess.
