Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 87 The Great Hagrid and the Fishing Plan!

"What method?" Hagrid asked impatiently.

"Go and invent a powerful taming spell that can make magical creatures as powerful as dragons execute your commands completely, wholeheartedly, and without any compromise. While unlocking their physical chains, put a mental shackle on them."

Dali, testing the waters, proposed a plan.

"Me? The inventor of spells?!"

Hagrid immediately backed down, "I can't do that. Dudley, you know, I'm not like you and Dumbledore, I'm not good at inventing spells, and I think most wizards aren't either."

"Then you should invent and concoct a potion that can achieve the same effect."

Dali has provided another direction.

"Huh?!" Hagrid's big, beady eyes widened even more. "That's even more impossible! I know absolutely nothing about potions!"

Besides Dumbledore, only Snape at Hogwarts might be able to do something like that, but I don't have any connection with him. Besides, I don't think you and Harry like Snape.

"Dali, isn't there a way I can do it?"

"You can do it... um... let me think."

Dudley pretended to be deep in thought, paused for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands. "I've got it! I've thought of another way, and only you in the entire Hogwarts can do it!"

"What method?" Hagrid's interest was piqued again by Dudley.

"Use your boundless love for magical creatures to win over and influence those powerful magical creatures, so that they will be willing to sign a magical contract with you, become your partner, and obey your commands completely from now on."

After some build-up, Dudley revealed the method he truly wanted Hagrid to execute.

"This...can I do it?" Hagrid felt somewhat confident about the method, but he still lacked certainty.

"What can I say to you? You underestimate yourself, Hagrid!"

Dudley shook his head and sighed, "At Hogwarts now, if we're talking about the habits of magical creatures, Professor Sylvanus Kettleburn, who teaches Magical Creatures Conservation, can still rival you in some respects."

But when it comes to dealing with powerful magical creatures, and to caring for them, in the entire Hogwarts, no, you could say in the entire wizarding world, only the elderly magical creature expert Newt Scamander can rival you!

Hagrid, you are actually very talented and have unlimited potential.

I firmly believe that you can accomplish the groundbreaking feat of signing master-servant or partner contracts with magical creatures, and perfect it into a mature magical ritual, so that Dumbledore will award you a First Class Merlin Order Medal of Honor!

If you succeed in this, you will completely change the landscape of the relationship between wizards and magical creatures.

In the past, wizards could only drive away, hunt together, or raise dangerous magical creatures to a limited extent; the relationship was generally hostile.

Once you've accomplished all of this, the powerful magical creatures will become the wizard's loyal partners and teammates, their greatest asset.

You will become another insurmountable benchmark in the field of protecting magical creatures! All wizards of the future will remember you! Your name will be etched in history, becoming another important point in magical history textbooks; you will achieve greatness, shining as brightly as Dumbledore!

"I... I am..."

Haig was deeply moved and overwhelmed by Dudley's increasingly emotional praise, unable to contain his excitement.

He could no longer sit calmly and eat his sausage. He stood up, his massive three-and-a-half-meter-tall body brimming with emotion. His eyes shone brighter than the flames dancing in the fireplace, and the sounds he uttered were broken and incoherent.

He has never received such high praise and recognition before.

At that moment, his self-esteem was satisfied like never before, and his self-confidence swelled like never before.

He was now absolutely certain that he could accomplish the plan that Dudley had mentioned.

He's ready to have his name written into the history of magic textbooks!

"Tell me, Hagrid! Can you do it?" Dudley, seeing that the time was right, immediately stood up and added a definitive question.

"I...I can do it! I definitely can do it!"

Hagrid's voice trembled only for a moment before he forced himself to steady himself and shouted out his determination.

The big dog, Tooth, was also affected by its owner's emotions and started barking loudly.

"Good! Very good! That's the spirit! As long as you believe in yourself, there's nothing you can't accomplish! Your will and magic will build the ladder to success for you!"

Dali said with a satisfied smile.

If Hagrid could build an army of fire dragons, an army of eight-eyed spiders, an army of three-headed dogs, an army of unicorns... and completely control them, the scene would be... wow... I don't even want to think about it!

Dudley sat back in the chair Hagrid had prepared for him, picked up the sausage Hagrid had just grilled, and then cast a softening spell on Hagrid's special rock bread, and began to eat with gusto, waiting for Hagrid to calm down his excitement.

After a while, seeing that Hagrid had calmed down a bit, Dudley was about to say the next three things when Hagrid couldn't wait to speak:

"Dali, tell me your last three things quickly! I want to immediately immerse myself in learning and practice! I need to go to the library to borrow books on magical contracts and rituals, then consult Professor Dumbledore, and come back to communicate with the dragons..."

"Okay, okay!" Dali replied, both amused and exasperated, before continuing, "The next three things are equally important, but they won't be difficult for you."

The third thing, didn't you tell me before that you kept that giant eight-eyed spider in the Forbidden Forest? That enormous spider even bred countless smaller, larger spiders, right?

“That’s right!” Hagrid replied smugly. “Aragok is living very well in the Forbidden Forest. He and his wife Mossag have had many, many baby spiders!”

"That's good. I plan to discuss with Dumbledore and gather the strength of all the professors to turn Aragog's territory into a dangerous treasure maze, as a place for sixth and seventh grade students to gain practical experience."

"You'll need to communicate and assist from the sidelines, appease the eight-eyed giant spiders, ensure the transformation proceeds smoothly, and, once the maze is complete, make the giant spiders its guardians."

Dudley told Hagrid the truth, albeit with reservations.

His primary purpose in facilitating the construction of this labyrinth was not to train older students, but to use a fake Philosopher's Stone to lure out Voldemort's main soul, which might infiltrate Hogwarts, and the new unfortunate soul he was parasitizing.

He still harbored suspicions that this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Ursy Hunter, was connected to Voldemort's main spirit.

In addition, he also wanted to take this opportunity to reduce the number of giant eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest, which were pure invasive species to the other creatures in the Forbidden Forest.

Aragog only recognizes Hagrid and is not a benevolent creature. In the original story, it even attacked Harry and Ron, who came to see it as Hagrid's friend, and allowed its spider offspring to attack Harry and Ron.

It and its spider wife were having a great time producing giant spiders, but the other creatures in the Forbidden Forest were not happy. If one day these spider offspring escaped the Forbidden Forest and carelessly injured some junior wizards, Dumbledore would be even more unhappy.

So let's go for a fishing plan that kills two birds with one stone.
