Hogwarts: Starting as a Card Maker from a Failed Art Student

Chapter 242 New Card - "Insatiable Durasol" - Wait, why are you coming at us?!

The cause of the matter is very simple.

In a class on the protection of magical creatures.

Hagrid believed this was a setup for the hippogriff.

Now we can bring out the real "big guy".

then.

He brought with him a Norwegian spinal dinosaur cub that lived deep in the forbidden forest.

"Cub" is just Hagrid's own term for it.

Actually.

This Norwegian Spinosaurus hatched in the first grade and has been growing for more than two years.

It's already the size of a house.

When it looked down at them with those orange, vertical pupils, Harry was sure he saw a strong appetite in it.

Ron, his face contorted with misery, muttered, "Blood Mother Hell... she's definitely thinking, 'These two-legged sheep look delicious!'"

In contrast.

The Ravenclaws, who attended classes with Gryffindor, seemed much more composed.

They gathered together and discussed questions such as "how spinal spurs affect age" and "how hard the scales are."

As for the reason...

Very simple.

"We have Ethan!"

Michael raised an eyebrow smugly at the Gryffindors.

Winter is getting warmer.

The faint sunlight filtered through the branches.

It landed on the black-haired boy's forehead, adding a touch of warmth to his fair face.

Around them, tiny dust particles floated like sprites.

It exudes a tranquil and elegant atmosphere.

The girls around them turned their heads, blushing and whispering:

"Ethan is so handsome when he's not talking...he even looks human."

"It perfectly embodies the learned and refined temperament of Ravenclaw."

"Exactly! The Daily Prophet even spread rumors that Ethan was having an affair with a fugitive. They have no idea what Ethan's true nature is!"

"Hey, you over there, move aside. You're blocking our view of the handsome guy."

Michael, over there, silently stepped back, two wide tears streaming down his face.

He clenched his fist in anger!

-

Is being handsome a big deal? Does it mean you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome?!

Hagrid: "Alright, everyone! Look at this adorable baby dragon, it's just about to leave its mother!"

Hagrid was clearly very excited, gesturing wildly.

"I brought it out with me to let it get used to the environment—"

Ron exclaimed in horror: "Does knowing the future mean we'll be stuck with where we work?!"

Hagrid: "Although it's big, don't be afraid! Norber is a very gentle and obedient baby."

The "very docile and well-behaved baby" snorted.

Immediately, crimson flames spewed from its mouth and nostrils.

The ground in front of him was instantly scorched.

The students screamed and backed away.

Choosing the Fantastic Beasts Conservation course must have been the worst decision they ever made in their lives.

Hagrid looked at the black dragon cub with loving eyes and said, moved:

"Oh, look at it! How healthy it is!"

"I assure you, as long as you don't provoke it, Norber will be perfectly safe—other schools don't have this thing yet!"

No wonder there are so many people at other schools...

Harry grumbled with a blank expression.

Take off your glasses and wipe the lenses, which are covered in soot from the smoke.

He squinted and looked around.

...The Dalmatian didn't come today either.

This intelligent guard dog has been missing since the Hogsmeade incident.

According to Ethan, it left heartbroken because of the previous negligence in guarding it.

It's like that dog is more humane than Ethan.

Harry's mind wandered.

My mouth and heart were still a little longing for it, and just then...

The black dragon cub's gaze suddenly locked onto Harry.

Staring at the sunlight reflecting off the lenses, his vertical pupils contracted to needle-like size.

Hagrid noticed this keenly.

Its tail began to sway from side to side.

This is a sign that the hunt is about to begin.

"Nober?! No—"

"roar!!"

Amidst the screams of the crowd.

Suddenly, the black dragon charged forward!

Excited gazes were fixed on Harry, who looked completely bewildered!

"W-what?"

Blind Harry frantically put on his glasses.

What came into view was the gaping maw of the Norwegian Spinosaurus, so large it seemed almost within reach.

Its fangs, like daggers, were about to snap down with a "whoosh"!

In an instant.

Harry's heart stopped.

I thought blankly:

First graders reveal the secret of the Philosopher's Stone; second graders discover the giant spider's nest; third graders encounter the Norwegian Ridgeback Dragon...

Hagrid, do you really want me dead?!

next second.

"Portal".

"Ban it immediately!!"

Two voices, almost overlapping, rang out at the same time!

Harry's feet slipped on the ground.

Suddenly, he fell into the dark doorway.

at the same time.

A magical spell struck the Norwegian Spinosaurus from the side!

It transformed into a halo of light, firmly binding its movements!

"roar--!"

Amidst angry roars.

Harry's heart skipped a beat.

As if sensing something, he looked in the direction from which the curse had been shot.

One was a disheveled man.

It was the man I bumped into at the screaming shack that day.

Sirius Black.

next moment.

Harry stumbled through the darkness and fell heavily onto the lawn.

He looked up, panting, and gripped his wand tightly.

Inside the venue.

Silence reigned.

All the students were stunned, staring at the man who had suddenly emerged from the forbidden forest.

Until a deafening roar erupted!

"Sirius—!!!"

Hagrid suddenly pounced on him!

Its imposing presence was comparable to that of a raging giant from ancient mythology.

A flicker of pain crossed Sirius's eyes.

But he still deftly swung his wand and shot out "Obstacles".

He then rolled on the spot.

He dodged Hagrid's attack, which was fueled by his resistance to the spell.

"A chirp?"

Norbert was captivated by this sudden battle.

Tilting its head, it curiously watched the two-legged sheep whose little stick emitted colorful light with a "biubiu" sound.

At this time.

The students then came to their senses.

She screamed in terror:

"—Aaaaaaah!!! It's Sirius!!! The fugitive Sirius!!!"

They immediately fell into chaos.

Shouting and pushing each other, they ran towards the castle.

They didn't even care if someone fell down.

On the black cloak, there is a large, limited-edition shoe print.

Sirius Black: "Don't you see your own students? They're almost causing a stampede—ban them immediately!"

Hagrid roared, "And then you go and kill them?! Take this!"

Sirius was extremely anxious.

Just then.

A clear voice, out of place amidst the surrounding chaos, rang out:

"Go, 'The Durassol Without'."

"Perfect, let's test the effect of my new card."

next moment.

A crisp and melodious hoofbeat rose from the ground:

"Yo-yo-yo!"

The sound echoed through this dense forest and frozen soil.

It was like an echo in an empty valley.

It lingered ethereally in mid-air, instantly calming the chaotic situation.

The students were startled and turned to look in surprise.

Then Ethan was holding a painting, from which a dazzling golden light emanated!

A couple! And Ethan is with them!

The students' eyes lit up.

A tremendous sense of security welled up within me!

"It's Ethan! We still have 'Ravenclaw's Light'!"

"Judging from his expression, it must be another new card, right?"

"It feels quite bright, and the sounds are gentle and pleasant, not like a terrifying creature like Cerberus."

The students stopped in their tracks.

He looked at Ethan expectantly, wanting to see how he would annihilate Sirius.

Ethan smiled slightly.

With a low shout, he infused the painting in his hands with magic!

"Whoosh—"

A magnificent display of golden light!

It blocked everyone's view.

Even Hagrid and Sirius couldn't help but squint.

Followed by.

They felt the earth tremble violently.

It was as if a mountain had collapsed, and something incredibly huge and heavy had crashed to the ground.

A few seconds later.

The light dimmed slightly.

The students eagerly opened their eyes and looked ahead.

Then I saw it.

A monster the size of a small mountain stretched across the ground.

It resembles a stag overall, with thick, gnarled antlers like a tree.

The muzzle protrudes forward, extending in an inverted cone shape from below the broad, raised forehead, and is covered with brown hair.

Its black nose bulged, exhaling white mist.

compare to.

Human beings are so insignificant.

A dead silence.

The powerful black dragon cub stood frozen in place.

Instinctively, he shrank back, held his breath, and his body trembled slightly.

...That's not prey.

That was a terrifying high predator.

One student, snapping out of his daze, cried out with trembling joy:

"The more terrifying and bizarre, the better!! This is what we're going to use to deal with the fugitive Sirius!!"

The words fell.

But then I saw that enormous head lying across the frozen ground.

Slowly shift the angle, turning towards the student who was shouting.

In the stillness of fear.

The pupils curved upwards, and the lips, which were stuck to the humanoid square teeth, lifted:

"Yo-yo-yo!"

It let out a clear, beautiful cry.

It was as if he were mocking everyone.

student:

?

Make up the difference!!

This terrifying monster seems to be heading straight for them!
