Chapter 325 A Gift to Hagrid
Chapter 325 A gift for Hagrid (first update)
However, Jerry knew that this female professor who looked like a crazy woman was actually two things, well, she should be one thing.
After all, the famous prophecy "Only one of two people can live" came from her mouth, and the prophecy did come true in the end.
But that is not her normal level. Her normal level is probably to make a hundred divination predictions, and it is possible or high probability that none of them will come true.
Jerry had checked the relevant information about this female professor before. Although her level of divination and prediction was not very good, she was indeed good at inheriting the science of divination.
She is the great-great-granddaughter of Cassandra Trelawny, the famous seer. Seers are wizards and witches who are born with the ability to use their third eye to foresee the future. The prophecies made by the seers will be recorded by the Ministry of Magic and stored in the Prophecy Hall of the Department of Mysteries.
middle.
If you haven't heard of Cassandra Trelawney, then you must be familiar with the name Gellert Grindelwald, because he is also a prophet. In 1927, he predicted the second Muggle war that has not yet happened.
world war.
Therefore, Jerry thought that the female professor's class could be listened to and used as a reference. Specifically, if he really wanted to master the divination magic that could predict dozens or decades, he would have to spend time and research on it himself.
Or when you get the "Dream" card, you can study it carefully based on the current situation.
"So, you have taken a course in divination, which is the most profound of all magical arts. I must say it up front. If you don't have insight, there is nothing I can do. In this field, books can teach you
Ours is just a little bit..."
After Professor Trelawney asked everyone to open the textbook "Looking Through the Fog to See the Future", she began to lay an ambush in advance.
Jerry's understanding is that divination magic is very profound, and your failure to learn it has nothing to do with the textbook or her teaching. The main reason is that you don't have the qualifications and talents.
This is to throw the blame out of the way first, because those who take her course will basically not be able to learn divination magic until they graduate.
Hermione, who was next to Jerry, was very shocked when she heard that books were not helpful in this subject, because in her mind, books are very important no matter which course she takes.
It is precisely because she spent time previewing and memorizing textbooks in advance that she was more efficient than others in class.
"Today we are going to learn the basics of divination, the tea leaf divination method. Please turn to the fifth and sixth pages, and then start the divination interpretation in pairs."
In this way, after making up some scary prophecies to a few timid little wizards, Professor Trelawney began her formal teaching.
Three hours later, Jerry closed the textbook and sighed secretly:
"It really has no logic at all. It seems that it still needs time to slow down!"
After the class, he didn't discover any logic or magic principles from Professor Trelawney's explanation. He felt that it was simply through the characteristics of some affairs that he could perform some kind of induction.
At least he can't sense anything now.
"I think the divination class is just a mess, she is just making random guesses!"
When Hermione put the book away, she complained directly.
Obviously, she felt that unlike arithmetic divination, where seeing is believing, the current divination based on observing the characteristics of events and relying on the sixth sense was just random guessing.
After the elective classes in the morning ended, the normal required classes began in the afternoon.
In addition to transfiguration, spells, potions, etc., the compulsory courses for third grade students also include the Care of Magical Creatures course.
In the afternoon, the Care of Magical Creatures class was taught by Gryffindor and Slytherin. It was also the first experience of our gamekeeper, Mr. Hagrid, in class.
The content of the course is to understand the character of hippogriffs who care about politeness, get along with them, and ride them in a circle outside the Forbidden Forest.
The whole process went smoothly, except that Malfoy said something rude and was attacked by a Hippogriff, but Jerry, who was well prepared, blocked it with the Iron Armor Curse.
After the course, Jerry did not return to the castle with everyone, but stayed alone.
"Jerry, thank you so much for just now. If a student is injured in the first class, then I, as a teacher, will have failed!"
Hagrid held Jerry in his big hand, his eyes full of guilt and gratitude.
He attached great importance to and was nervous about the first class of his career as a teacher. Unexpectedly, something serious almost happened. If Jerry hadn't reacted quickly, he might have ended his role as a teacher today.
Jerry smiled and shook his head, then took out a small box from the wizard's robe:
"In my opinion, Hagrid, you are one of the best magical zoologists in the world. Today was just an accident, and it is not your fault.
By the way, I stayed here to give you something, I bought it accidentally in Greece, I think you will like it!"
Although Hagrid is a mixed-race giant four to five meters tall, he actually has a very good personality, is also very enthusiastic and kind, and helps him a lot.
For example, those professional magical animal knowledge, fire dragon Norbert, thestrals, three-headed dogs, etc.
So Jerry also planned to give him some small gifts in return.
"This is the cub of the Chimera and the Griffin!"
Hagrid opened the small box and immediately let out a cry of surprise.
Because he saw two magical animal cubs in the box, one had the head of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a fire dragon, the other had the forelimbs, wings and head of a giant eagle, while the body, hind legs and tail were like
lion.
These two are the famous Greek magical animals, the chimaera and the griffon.
"They'll leave it to you, I'll leave first!"
Rejecting Hagrid's enthusiastic dinner invitation, Jerry told Hagrid not to tell anyone about the chimaera and griffin he gave him, and waved his hand and left.
Unlike fire dragons, Chimaeras and Griffins are restricted by the Ministry of Magic and cannot be raised privately. However, the box containing the two cubs has a traceless stretching charm attached, which is not allowed by the Ministry of Magic to be manufactured privately.
However, Hagrid is also the kind of person who doesn't like to follow rules. He is not worried that Hagrid will find anything wrong, but his big talk may not be kept secret for long.
"Okay, tonight I will go to the Room of Requirement to seal the soul in Ravenclaw's diadem, and then go to the Ministry of Magic in London to get a magic car and meditate. It seems like it will cost a lot more Little Red Stars.
ah!
Well, fortunately, the soul of Voldemort who sealed the crown should have a lot of little red stars in his account!"
