Chapter 137 Buckbeak's First Appearance
"Oh, as I said earlier, Buckbeak misses you very much."

He patted his stomach excitedly and said loudly.

"Really?" Hera patted Buckbeak's beak, and Buckbeak lazily closed his eyes, as if he liked it very much.

It kept rubbing its head against Hera's neck, and Hera stood up slowly. He had no intention of angering the Hippogriff in front of him.

He'd just been shocked at first sight of the half-horse, half-bird thing, but when the shock passed, he couldn't help but marvel at its shiny coat, which transitioned smoothly from feather to fur in different colors: dark gray, bronze, pinkish sand, shiny maroon, and finally jet black.

"I was a little guy when I saw you last time. I didn't expect you to be so big!" He stretched his hands along Buckbeak's head, like the posture of stroking a cat before, and gently combed his hair.

"Hagrid, you take such good care of him!"

"Haha." Hagrid laughed loudly, rubbing his hands together, and smiled heartily at Hera, "That's for sure, Buckbeak is a red man, look at the girls next to him, they are all females attracted by him."

Hagrid leaned forward, disengaged Buckbeak a little and pulled off his leather collar.Hera held her breath and narrowed her eyes to observe Buckbeak's movements carefully. He didn't believe that a Hippogriff would remember its smuggler in mind—even if it did, it would most likely be malicious.

"Relax, Hera, you're scaring it a little." Hagrid said quietly, noticing Hera's tightly gripped wand, Buckbeak was visibly timid.

Buckbeak tapped his hoof on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.Suddenly it bent its scaly front knees and sank.

"Does it mean to let me go up?" Hera asked Hagrid, not sure what it meant.

Hai Ge hurriedly held the leather collar, and said in an uncertain tone: "Oh, I think so, no—it must be like this."

"You can try to climb up here, just behind the wing joints," said Hagrid, "be careful not to pull off its feathers, it will hurt"

Hera hesitated for a moment, but decided to believe Hagrid's words.
Well, mostly Buckbeak kept pushing Hera up its back with his head.

Hera put one foot on Buckbeak's wing and climbed onto his back.Buckbeak stood up.

Hera had no idea where he was going to grab it, every place in front of him was covered with feathers - so he hugged it tightly around its neck.

Buckbeak raised his head abruptly, his wings were on both sides of Hera, and the shiny feathers slid under his fingers. He didn't dare to hold it firmly, for fear of angering this dangerous magical creature.

Its wings spread and fluttered, and its hips rose and fell with the wings, and Hera felt herself jolting back and forth.

Then, they flew into the air.

Buckbeak flew him over the paddock and the Forbidden Forest, followed by several other hippogriffs not far behind, hovering over Hogwarts like a fleet showing off its might, it was extremely spectacular.

After flying for a few minutes, Hera dared to loosen his grip on Buckbeak's neck a little bit, and he shouted loudly.

It was nothing like being on a broomstick, and he enjoyed it so much that he thought maybe he shouldn't have sold Buckbeak to Hagrid.

Buckbeak landed, and it returned to the ground. Hera slid down from it with endless enthusiasm. Buckbeak wanted to rub Hera, but Hera was pushed aside by several female hippogriffs next to him, as if they felt that Buckbeak wasted too much time.

"Hagrid, you take good care of them." Hera patted Hagrid's belly with a loud popping sound.That's definitely a heartfelt admiration, he's not as good at raising magical creatures as Hagrid.

Hagrid scratched his head in embarrassment, like a big boy, "Don't praise me so much, I just did what I should do. I am very happy to see it is so popular."

"I think we can talk about Barco." Hera was going to use the excuse of cheating Norbert last year to deceive Hagrid again, but before he finished speaking, a loud voice interrupted him.

"Hera! Hagrid!"

It was Hermione's voice, and she came angrily from the direction of the castle, followed by her two useless followers - Harry and Ron.

They looked more distressed than Hermione, and there were many holes in their cloaks, as if they had been scratched by some sharp hooks.They also had some ink on their faces, not much better than Harry had met him in Knockturn Alley.

"Harry! Nice to meet you, how's the first day of school?" Hagrid called out to them, his voice startling Hera.

"It's terrible." Hermione frowned, speaking in an extremely irritated tone.

Hera clearly remembered that she was not in such a bad mood before he left.

"Did something happen?" Hera asked suspiciously, "Lockhart gave you a low score on the test?"

Hera couldn't imagine anything else that would make Hermione so angry.

"If only that was the case." Ron muttered softly, and they had already walked in, and Hera and Hagrid could hear them.

Hagnun said, "It's too cold, let's go back to the house and prepare a cup of hot tea for you to warm your body, you must be freezing." After he finished speaking, he patted Harry's shoulder lightly, and strode towards his cabin.

Hagrid's one big step was equivalent to Hera's two steps, and Harry's three steps. They had to trot to keep up. The sky was getting dark, and they didn't intend to be thrown on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Sitting in the hut, Hermione straightened her back with anger, and said in a rather exaggerated tone: "I thought Lockhart was at least a reliable wizard, even if he wasn't as good as Professor Hera, but I didn't expect him to be so bad. Our first class was a disaster!"

"Aren't you doing test papers? Why did you make you look like this?" Hera pointed to Harry and Ron next to him. They were in such a mess, he couldn't help but took out his wand and cleaned them several times in a row, at least removing all the stains on them.

"I've said it a long time ago, it would be great if that's the case." Ron's voice was a little strange, and he curled his lips and leaned back in the chair in despair.

"He's got a bunch of Cornish elves and the whole class is out of control!"
