The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v4 Chapter 159: Hermione wants to touch a unicorn

Remember [New] in a second! Malfoy left the History of Magic classroom contentedly. After a long talk, the problems that bothered him were basically resolved.

What he needs to do now is to get his father to make a statement, and keep false and submissive to the Death Eaters.

Hagrid's temporary suspension didn't cause much trouble. The little wizards lost interest in this topic after discussing it for a while, and Professor Graplan's unicorn discussion was more heated than Hagrid's life experience.

What's more interesting is that this topic miraculously only affected Hagrid, and Mrs. Maxime, who was in a similar situation to Hagrid, did not suffer from unreasonable troubles.

This may be because Hagrid's status is far inferior to that of the principal of a famous magic school. But in the final analysis, it is still hard for wizards to believe that such an elegant and noble Mrs. Maxim has the blood of a giant. They prefer to believe that she is just a little bigger.

Compared with the turmoil that Hagrid suffered before, this is just a trivial matter. However, it still dealt a great blow to Hagrid. Hagrid shut himself in his hut, even Harry and Ron were gone.

But this has little to do with Tom, he is quite looking forward to the unicorn brought by Professor Graplan.

Tom had contact with a unicorn in the Forbidden Forest in the first grade, but the unicorn had been severely injured by Quirrell, and died shortly after Tom expelled Quirrell. It was the first time Tom had ever seen an adult, healthy unicorn.

The other students share Tom's passion for unicorns.

So when Professor Graplan came to the lawn outside the castle, she found that the students from the two colleges of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff had already arrived, and they were stretching their necks eagerly waiting for her to come. It's a world of difference from the students who are still sparsely entering the hall five minutes after the start of the last class.

As evidenced by the performance of her students, her program has been very successful. Even the unsmiling Professor Graplan couldn't help showing a smile. This is the happiness of being recognized for the fruits of one's hard work.

"I believe that most of you already know the content of this class, so come with me!" She got straight to the point and led the students to the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

This time, she also prepared a bigger surprise for these little wizards.

The unicorns that live in the forest have given birth. In fact, the unicorn cubs had been born for some time, and it was she, Graplan, who delivered them.

That's how she knew the unicorn and was able to take it outside the Forbidden Forest.

Professor Graplan was very excited when he learned that he was about to become a substitute teacher for the Protection of Magical Animals class. After signing with Dumbledore, she immediately entered the Forbidden Forest, hoping to find some magical animals suitable for lectures.

Then with great luck, she met the rumored unicorn tribe in the depths of the Forbidden Forest. What's more, at this time, the female beast in the group is in a state of dystocia. Graplan, who has a lot of research on magical animals, provided some help, helped it deliver the baby, and let the unicorn get through the difficulties.

This earned her the unicorn's trust. Now, with the cubs a little older, she also allows students to meet the fabled unicorn cubs.

If one in a thousand wizards has seen a unicorn, then probably not one in ten thousand has seen a unicorn cub.

Unicorn cubs are the most closely guarded by the pack. Adult unicorns may also be seen by wizards who go to or stray into the edge of the Forbidden Forest while foraging, and unicorn cubs that only wander back to the depths of the Forbidden Forest with their mothers are basically impossible to be bumped into.

Before taking the students to see the unicorn, Professor Graplan said to the little wizards very seriously: "Unicorns are powerful, but also shy and shy, so I hope your movements will not be too sudden, Vigorous—also, girls in front of boys, unicorns don't like being touched by men."

The boys present:  …

The air is shaking and cold, when will we boys stand up in front of unicorns? ! We also want to touch unicorns!

The boys showed envious looks one by one, watching the girls pushing and shoving in front of them and forming an untidy square team.

When they saw the male unicorn on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, suppressed cheers broke out in the square team. They were amazed at the beauty of the unicorn.

"Look!" Padma whispered excitedly, pointing to the forest behind the unicorn.

Following Padma's guidance, everyone successfully saw the unicorns in the woods. Unlike the adult male, the unicorn in the woods was obviously smaller, and the brows and eyes looked softer. It was a female unicorn at first glance.

What was even more surprising was that there was a small golden ball next to the female unicorn's feet.

Unlike the whiteness of adult unicorns, the hair on young unicorns is a pale gold like gold. Under the warm winter sun, the cub seemed to be glowing.

Facing such a hot gaze, the little unicorn slumped and hid behind its mother's buttocks, revealing only a short golden tail like a rabbit.

"A unicorn cub is a very sensitive creature, and bringing it here is already the limit." Professor Graplan said with some regret: "But this is one-in-a-million luck, and a unicorn cub is extremely rare. , I'm not even sure that Professor Scamander has seen it. You can get closer, so you can see it better-but keep your distance!"

Because the female and the cubs are very sensitive and restrained, it is impossible for Graplan to let them come outside the Forbidden Forest to be watched by the students like the male.

Now, the girls were divided into two groups, one group surrounded the adult unicorn to pet it, and the other group got as close to the cub as possible to observe its appearance.

"By the way, Tom, I remember you can change into magical animals by touching them, right?" Hermione remembered something~lightnovelpub.net~ She walked beside Tom, and whispered coyly: "Then …Can you, uh… try to pet this baby unicorn?”

Hermione struggled for a long time, and she was not ashamed to ask Tom to copy the form of the unicorn cub. She could only give him a tactful hint to find a way to change into the form of the unicorn cub.

Girls can't resist the temptation of furry animals!

Tom: ...

"You should know that even if it's a unicorn cub, its essence is still me, so if you want to pet it, just touch me directly, and you can completely save this step." Tom raised an eyebrow at Hermione.

Hermione's face turned red, and she felt her cheeks burning hot.

"Then, that's unnecessary!"

But after listening to Hermione's words, Tom still walked towards the cub.
