Hogwarts Crawler

"Professor Reed! Grawp is still a child! I can guarantee that he won't cause any damage!"

Although Hagrid was deeply saddened by Aragog's departure, he still followed Adam's footsteps for his brother's safety.

On the way, Hagrid racked his brains to describe Grawp's harmlessness with the few words he knew.

However, before Hagrid finished speaking, there was a noise in the distance. Adam turned his head and saw only a treetop disappearing from sight, and a few birds chirping and rushing into the sky.

This noise, probably... a tree was knocked down.

Hagrid's face flushed:

"I promise that Grawp will not harm the students of Hogwarts. I can guarantee it with my life!"

"If the students of Hogwarts do not enter the Forbidden Forest, then I believe your promise, but I have said that starting from next semester, Hogwarts will strengthen the development and utilization of the Forbidden Forest."

Adam looked at Hagrid and shook his head:

"You should know that since Voldemort's resurrection, the power of the Death Eaters has made the Ministry of Magic unable to protect everyone's safety. Our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor suggested that I strengthen the training of students' practical ability. I think he makes sense."

"Starting from next semester, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class will increase the proportion of practical courses, and the class will be held in the Forbidden Forest-as I mentioned to Aragog before, various magical animals will be placed within the designated range as students' Training ground. "

"In addition, Professor Sprout also suggested that Hogwarts could add a few more greenhouses so that students can better learn herbal knowledge, so I decided to open up new herb fields and new greenhouses in the Forbidden Forest."

After talking about his plan for the Forbidden Forest, Adam continued to ask:

"When students will enter the Forbidden Forest in large numbers and frequently, and cast spells in the Forbidden Forest, even if you are willing to guarantee, I can't let Grawp live in the Forbidden Forest as before."

"Before I was a student, whether it was a giant spider or a giant, it couldn't threaten my life, so even if I knew they were in the Forbidden Forest, I wouldn't care. But now I am the headmaster, I need to be responsible for the safety of Hogwarts students, do you understand?"

Firenze listened silently, he knew that Adam was also talking to him.

While talking, they had arrived at Grawp's "home".

Looking at Grawp who was playing with a tree in front of him, Adam looked at Hagrid:

"He is a purebred giant, right?"

"Well, yes, but he is too short and is often bullied by giants, so I brought him back..."

Adam glanced at Grawp, who was sixteen feet (nearly five meters) tall, and nodded:

"He is your brother, and I will also give him three choices - considering that his intelligence may not be able to understand what I say, you decide for him."

Hagrid wiped his tears and nodded.

"The first choice is to let him move to an area with a dangerous level of XXXX, and the students will also regard him as one of the targets of attack. Of course, you can go in and take care of him at ordinary times, or you can persuade the students not to attack him."

"No! He can't do it! Living with those dangerous guys... He is still a child!"

Hagrid shook his head.

Adam was speechless. This sixteen-foot-tall child couldn't live with creatures of dangerous level XXXX?

The Thestrals you brought to us last semester for a group of real kids to take care of are also creatures of danger level XXXX!

Speechless, Adam continued:

"The second option is that Grawp leaves Hogwarts and lives in a place where few people go - he is not a member of Hogwarts, and I have no reason to keep him in Hogwarts when he will pose a threat to others and cannot create value."

Hagrid hesitated and asked about the third option.

"The third option is that I make him bigger, as big as a normal giant, and then let him go back to his home."

Then, Adam let Hagrid experience it himself. This kind of enlargement is not the kind of enlargement caused by the expansion spell, but the enlargement of strength, and it can be maintained for a long time.

"You took him away from home because he was too small and would be bullied. So how about I make him normal size and let him go back to live the life that a giant should live?"

Hagrid was in a state of hesitation. The aggressiveness and violence of giants often caused them to fight even among their own kind, not to mention that Grawp's original people had joined the Death Eaters.

"I choose the second option."

"Okay, then move him out as soon as possible before school starts."

Adam nodded and looked at Firenze:

"Professor Firenze, can you take us to the Forbidden Forest?"

"...I should be able to do it, if their behavior patterns have not changed after expelling me."

Firenze nodded.

On the way to find the centaur community, Firenze looked at Adam and said:

"Professor Reed, may I ask, how many choices did you prepare for the centaurs?"

"Also three: obey, leave, or die."

...

"The proud centaurs are not as tough as they say."

Adam touched the dark staff that had regained its brightness after being washed, and said lightly:

"It was easier to persuade them than to persuade the Acromantula before. "

Watching how Adam used the Dark Staff to "convince" the centaurs, Firenze thought for a moment and finally chose to remain silent.

Compared to the wise Aragog and Hagrid, who had seen Adam's strength, the centaurs were much more irritable and direct, so Adam chose to convince them with virtue and reason.

Under Adam's abundant martial virtues and exquisite physics, the centaurs were successfully moved by Adam and agreed to move to the area with a danger level of XXXX.

But before that, they asked Adam to give them two months to prepare, such as recuperating, and Adam generously agreed.

Recalling that the centaurs had clamored that the Forbidden Forest had always belonged to them, Adam couldn't help but laugh.

If the centaurs really lived in the Forbidden Forest and retained ownership of the Forbidden Forest, the Hogwarts contract would not have included the Forbidden Forest.

When Adam became the headmaster, he discovered that this ancient magic contract contained a spiritual dimension power similar to the will of nature.

In other words, when When the magic contract was first signed, the identity of the headmaster was recognized by all areas of Hogwarts, including Hogwarts Castle, the Forbidden Forest, and the Black Lake.

So the centaurs were either latecomers who moved to Hogwarts after the four founders established Hogwarts, or they were the natives who were defeated by the four founders but eventually let go.

If it was the former, then they had been living under someone else's roof for so long that they regarded this place as their own home.

If it was the latter, they lost the fight and dared to jump out now. Did they think I couldn't lift the wand?

Did you know that the last native who was defeated was called Indians? How are they doing now?

In any case, the Forbidden Forest is basically handled now. Next, we just need to improve each area and prepare for the start of school.

All together - oh, by the way, I almost forgot!

Adam looked at Hagrid and waved to erase Hagrid's cognition of Adam in this memory.

He would remember what he and the new headmaster did today, but he could no longer recall the specific information of the new headmaster.

This is considered complete~
