Hogwarts Wizarding Journey

‘Wow~Wow~’

The sound of surging water echoed in the dark night.

Under Shanna's control, the giant squid slowly approached the shore of the black lake.

"Fina, jump up quickly and roll a few times on its tentacles... Very good, you can go back to the Forbidden Forest now.

After returning to the lair, you can proceed deeper into the Forbidden Forest, then circle far away to cover up the smell on your body, and then you can come back."

After watching Fina disappear into the forbidden forest, there was only the last step left.

"Cut off the tentacles, um... let's take 3 first."

Upon hearing Shanna's order, the big squid began to twist its three tentacles vigorously.

Squids generally have a self-protection skill that allows them to break off their tentacles to distract predators and escape.

Obviously, although this giant squid is very different from ordinary squids in terms of size, it has not lost this traditional craft of its own race.

‘Bang bang bang~’

The three tentacles of the giant squid broke off one after another and fell to the grass on the shore, stirring up mud and grass clippings all over the sky.

"Very good! You can go back."

After using the forgetting spell to modify part of the big squid's memory, Shanna nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand, indicating that the other party could go back to sleep.

So everyone saw that these three tentacles were given to her by the big squid on their own initiative, but they were not cut off by her. In other words, she did not disobey her brother's instructions.

Hogwarts is such a great place, even the animals here are so welcoming.

You may not believe it, and even she herself wouldn't believe it, but she actually refused this gift from the big squid.

But she didn't expect that the other party would break off his tentacles so neatly and without giving her a chance to refuse.

Now that the tentacles have fallen off, it's impossible to put them back again, right?

If you don’t believe me whether An will go back or not, ask Big Squid.

Therefore, she could only reluctantly accept the other party's gift.

There is no way, she is just such a cute little girl who is not good at rejecting.

'Hehehehe~!'

(?w?)

She happily stuffed her tentacles into her bag, and Shanna was like a little girl who saw her leeks growing well and was happily cutting them.

Patting the small satchel on her waist, Shanna's face showed the joy of the harvest.

In this way, even if the professors find that the giant squid is missing a few tentacles, they will only think that it is some magical animal in the Forbidden Forest that attacked their Hogwarts pet tonight.

As for why these tentacles disappeared out of thin air?

This will test the imagination of the professors.

In fact, many types of magical animals can do this.

For example, a bird snake can swallow three tentacles in one bite after it grows large enough.

For example, Xiu Xiu, despite their small size, the dimensional bags on their bellies have a very, very large space.

Another example is the Ned's Bristle Boar, which can eat hundreds of times its own body weight in one go.

Therefore, there are many possibilities. Anyway, she, a cute and well-behaved little girl, could not have taken it away. It is even less likely that the weak, pitiful and helpless little Fina did it.

"Go back to sleep~!"

Sure enough, as the saying goes, it is good to be light when nothing happens.

Xiao Shanna, who successfully completed her plan, now feels relaxed all over.

Although her two friends were almost exhausted.

Tired!

…

Early the next morning, a commotion broke out in the Slytherin lounge and quickly spread throughout Hogwarts.

As we all know, Slytherin's common room is located at the bottom of the Black Lake.

In the morning, when several small snakes passed by the lounge, by chance, the big squid happened to swim above the lounge.

Then these little snakes were surprised to find that the big squid that had been living leisurely in the black lake for an unknown number of years, and could almost be said to have accompanied most British wizards as they grew up, seemed to be missing some parts?

After confirming again and again that they were not dazzled because they had not woken up in the morning, they hurried to Professor Snape's office and reported the situation to their dean.

Snape was shocked when he learned the news.

You know, he has been coveting that big squid for a long time.

With the accumulation of long years and a body that is comparable to the legendary Kraken, if you can cut off some key parts from the opponent's body, you will definitely be able to make a very wonderful potion.

Unfortunately, his tempting proposal was opposed by most of the professors at Hogwarts, including Dumbledore.

'Hmph! A bunch of barbarians who don't understand the beauty of potions!'

Therefore, Snape couldn't help but feel a burst of admiration when he heard that someone had done something that he had always wanted to do but had not been able to do.

He couldn't wait to see the other party, and then... he would knock the other party down with a magic spell and grab the ingredients for the big squid!

As the only Potions Master in Hogwarts, is there anyone more qualified than him to handle those tentacles?

He did it as he thought, and Snape looked happy... ahem, and came to the principal's office with a heavy look on his face, and reported to Dumbledore the situation that he had confirmed with his own eyes before.

How the professors appeased the giant squid and how many times they plowed the Forbidden Forest from beginning to end are beyond the knowledge of the little wizards who are currently having breakfast in the auditorium.

Maybe there will be some gossipy little wizards in the future who will pry out a little bit of content from the professors' mouths, so that there may be one or two more terrifying legends about the Forbidden Forest?

But that will happen no matter how long it takes.

"Bell! Tell me quickly! Did you do it!?"

This morning, after hearing the news about the attack on the giant squid, the figures of the Bell brothers and sisters immediately appeared in Hermione's mind.

If there is anyone in Hogwarts who has the ability and motivation to attack the giant squid, then the only two are the Bell brothers.

And she still hasn't forgotten the scene when Shanna wanted to catch the big squid and eat it.

"What? We didn't do this thing?"

Bell's mouth was filled with food and he looked at Hermione with a confused expression.

"Stop pretending to be stupid! It's the giant squid. Tell me quickly! Did you attack the giant squid and take away its tentacles?"

"How is that possible! We didn't do it!"

"real?"

"real!"

Bell could swear that they didn't do anything!

He just watched the whole process and watched the excitement for a while, and never took any action.

And Lim didn't know about this at all, he just prepared some ingredients that Shanna gave her.

From beginning to end, Limu had never even seen the face of the giant squid, so how could he possibly attack him?

So, it really wasn’t them (Bell, Lim) who did it!

(?w?)
