Chapter 044: Edward's Animal Taming and Pets

Quidditch is the most important, high-speed, dangerous and exciting sport in the wizarding world. There are more than 700 ways to foul www.biquge.info Quidditch, and injuries are inevitable, and the vast majority of them are falls. In Quidditch, the rescuers are wizards, but not as preventative rescuers, but as after-the-fact cures.

The arena of Quidditch matches is often paved with soft fine sand, and there is a proper cushion for people to fall on. But even so, in every Quidditch match every year, there are almost always injuries.

According to the rules, no one is allowed to stand on the floor of the court during a Quidditch match - except for the referee, the player who has fallen can continue to play if the injury is not serious.

Professor McGonagall's idea was to have an on-site ambulance in a House Cup Quidditch match to catch a player when they fell to avoid a fall. Doing so can effectively reduce injuries during the game and also make the game more intense, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

In the Headmaster's room, Edward, Professor McGonagall, Professor Dumbledore, and Madame Foxy were discussing the matter. The establishment of a new ambulance is not a trivial matter, and if it is not done well, Hogwarts will be punished by the Department of Magical Sports of the Ministry of Magic for breaking the rules of the tournament without permission.

"In fact, the Department of Magical Movement has also met to discuss this. Madame Hoochi, as a Quidditch referee, knew more about the Magical Sports Division, "but then she disappeared because there were too few people who could serve as such ambulances." ”

"The force of a fall from a height is very high, and it can happen suddenly at any time. If a wizard is used as an on-site ambulance, few people will be able to rescue them with flotation in time. ”

"And if you rely on both hands to catch the falling player, and you can't catch it a few times, the end result is often that the falling player is fine, and the ambulance man's own hands will be broken. ”

"And that kind of thing?" Professor McGonagall was surprised.

"Yes, Quidditch is very popular right now, but injuries are a headache for the Department of Magical Sports. "Every year there are complaints about this, and the Ministry of Magic is overwhelmed. ”

"In other words, if Mr. Edward is up to the task, then the Ministry of Magic wouldn't object?" said Dumbledore.

"I think so, but I need to talk to the Department of Magical Sports. Mrs. Hooch said.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you, Professor Hoochi. Dumbledore said, "Professor Edward, are you alright?"

"Of course, no problem, it's my pleasure. Edward laughed.

After Mrs. Hooch hurried out, Professor McGonagall was about to leave, when Edward suddenly said, "Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, I have something to discuss with you. ”

"Oh? Dumbledore said with interest, and Professor McGonagall turned to look at Edward.

"It's about my pets. Edward organized the language and said, "I'd like to have a pet, but this pet is a little bit special. ”

"A magical creature?" Professor McGonagall had a bad feeling.

"Yes, it's a head...... Dragon. Edward hesitated a few times, but finally spoke.

"Are you kidding? You said you were going to keep a dragon as a pet?" Professor McGonagall's voice suddenly rose a little.

"Professor Edward, perhaps you don't quite understand the laws of the wizarding world right now. As early as the Wizards' Congress in 1709, a bill prohibiting the breeding of dragons was officially passed, and this is known to everyone. If we keep dragons in our back garden, it's hard not to get Muggles to notice us - and it's hard to tame them, which is dangerous. Dumbledore, who had always supported Edward, objected.

"Even if you can bake on the stove for ten minutes without burning, your skin isn't tough enough to withstand a dragon's fangs - in fact, every dragon's teeth are basically poisonous, and their saliva can even corrode wood. Dumbledore added.

"That's not a problem, I'm proficient in animal taming, and although dragons are grumpy creatures, I have the confidence to keep them docile. Edward insisted, "I just need to keep it at Hogwarts and it won't be discovered by the Muggles." ”

"That's not going to work, Professor Edward, don't you understand? it's against the law, and if your dragon is discovered, someone from the Ministry of Magic will come and arrest you right away. Professor McGonagall objected, "When the time comes, not only you, but even Professor Dumbledore and I, as the Headmaster, will be implicated." ”

Seeing that the two deans did not agree with him raising dragons, Edward pouted.

"Wait, you said you want to raise dragons, which means there are already dragons in Hogwarts?" Professor McGonagall said suddenly.

Edward opened his mouth, speechless.

"Hagrid! It must be Hagrid. Professor McGonagall guessed at once who had the guts.

"Well, Hagrid did a ridiculous thing. Dumbledore sighed and comforted Edward again, "There's nothing to discuss about raising dragons, Edward. If you want a special pet, I can help you find it. Magical creatures that can be used as pets must be approved by the Ministry of Magic, and you can't just have a pet. ”

"Yes, I see. Edward said in frustration that he wasn't doing this because he couldn't keep dragons, but because he didn't convince Dumbledore that even Hagrid couldn't keep dragons anymore.

"I'll go talk to Hagrid. Professor McGonagall walked out in a huff.

"Well, don't feel guilty, Edward, it's a good thing for Hagrid to find out about this beforehand. Dumbledore said, "Hagrid has a lot of feelings, he has loved magical creatures since he was a child, he has lived on the edge of the Forbidden Forest these days, he has a lot of pets, these pets often cause some trouble for the house, if he continues to continue, something will definitely happen." ”

"Edward, you just said you were proficient in animal taming, to what extent?" Dumbledore asked.

"I can talk to almost all the usual types of creatures. "In order to raise dragons, Edward had already upgraded his animal taming skills to the elite level beforehand, and most of the magical creatures in the wizarding world were at this level, so he dared to say that he could talk to almost all creatures.

After learning that he couldn't keep a dragon, Edward didn't regret spending this achievement point, because he also loved having a pet to accompany him to various planes.

"Perhaps, you can look for Hagrid, he has many magical creatures, maybe you can find what you like. ”
