HP: White Lord of Slytherin
Chapter 81 What a pity
Newt is very familiar with the characteristics of various creatures and can almost tell something about them when he sees them, unless he has never seen them or they are not even recorded in books.
Even when facing completely unfamiliar creatures, he was able to observe and understand them patiently without causing disgust among those creatures. Among them, Grace was the biggest contrast. She was always alert from the beginning, and in just one morning, she was willing to rub Newt's face.
Grace had been staring at the dragon eggs for several days. Now that Adonis, the last one to hatch, had already hatched, she was going out to look for food.
Newt left his suitcase behind and followed. He didn't want to miss the hunting scene of such a powerful creature. Not only could he learn some habits of the Black Flame Dragon, but also get an intuitive understanding of their diet.
"Put the suitcase here. Is it dangerous for you to stay here? Do you want to go back to the manor first?" Even though his mind was full of Grace, Newt still did not forget their safety.
"Don't worry, Newt." Gloria said, "Most of the creatures here know me, especially powerful creatures like the fire dragon. Go ahead, don't get lost. If you can't find the way, call Grace's name and she will bring you back."
Newt pursed his lips and smiled, "That's good, I'll be leaving first."
His figure flashed and he appeared in the distance. He stopped and looked up to confirm Grace's location before continuing with the next Apparition.
Draco said: "Although we both like magical creatures, Newt is completely different from the big silly guy who watched the forbidden forest at school."
"They are different," Gloria said. "Hagrid loves all kinds of monsters, while Newt loves all magical creatures."
When there were no other people around, the boy immediately hugged her and said, "If he teaches the Care of Magical Creatures class, I would be happy to listen carefully. I heard that although Professor Kettleburn likes some ferocious magical creatures, he only lets students come into contact with the less dangerous ones."
Gloria leaned into his arms, "Powerful creatures have their own charm."
After Adonis had eaten his fill, he slept soundly with his head resting on Draco's legs. The other resting black flame dragons would look over from time to time to make sure their fellow dragonlets were safe.
"I'm curious about something that I never asked in school." Gloria raised her eyes and saw Draco's superior jawline. "Why do you hate Harry, Ron and Hermione so much?"
The boy hugged her arms tightly and rubbed his chin against her hair. "Weasley laughed at my name, Potter defended his rude friend, and Granger always acted like no one was smarter than her. Everyone is so hateful!"
As expected, they became rivals in the first grade. "No wonder they fought like that when they met."
Thinking of the conflict when they met, Gloria couldn't help but chuckle. The boy tickled her and rolled around with Adonis.

Newt settled down in Slytherin Manor. If he wasn't worried about disturbing other creatures, he would have wanted to build a temporary house in the forest to live in.
Gloria and Draco looked inside the suitcase. They had to say that Newt's Traceless Stretching Charm was very powerful. The extended and divided space was very stable and it could simulate various natural environments.
Headmaster Dumbledore was very busy even during the summer vacation. He came over a few days later and chatted with the portrait of Regulus for a long time. When he came out, his face was full of emotion. Later, he went to the portrait room and had a good chat with those portraits.
During lunch, three snakes, each about the width of a palm, snaked into the restaurant, and everyone except Gloria stopped using their knives and forks.
They probably wandered deep into the forest during the first few days of summer vacation, and today they remembered to come back and take a look.
"These are my snakes." Gloria pointed at the three snakes and introduced them one by one, "Gornia, Jörmungandr, and Apophis."
The three snakes came to the three people respectively. Draco looked at Golinia, then at Gloria. He was relieved when he saw them nod and knew everything was fine.
Newt had already put down his knife and fork. "Is this... the same creature as the Chamber of Secrets Basilisk?"
It was the first time he had seen such a snake. The color of its scales and eyes were very rare.
"It appeared earlier than the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets. It is a product of magic and alchemy, and is not a magical beast in the strict sense." She thought the three snakes would play outside until August.
Dumbledore lowered his head and tentatively spoke something in snake language, which roughly meant that you are delicious.
Gloria laughed when she heard that, and Apophis stepped back a bit, hissing at him twice before returning to Gloria, "This is the first time I've heard a human say that I'm delicious."
Gloria's smile widened, and Dumbledore asked, "What's wrong with what I said?"
He knows some Parseltongue, but he is not like Gloria who is a natural Parseltongue speaker and can communicate with snakes like a normal conversation, and some of the meanings he expresses may not be correct.
"You said he was delicious. Apophis was a little surprised that a human would talk to him like that."
Dumbledore nodded. "I thought it was a greeting."
Golinia had already climbed on top of Draco and was wrapped around his legs, staring at the mate of this generation of Slytherin's heir. Draco froze in his tracks, then mustered up the courage to reach out his hand, and seeing that she had no intention of attacking, he touched the cold scales.
My mind couldn't help but recall Golinia's dazzling appearance during the lounge incident.
Jörmungandr shrank his body and rubbed against Newt's shoulder several times before he walked across the dining table and returned to Gloria and said something to her.
Gloria looked up. "Jörmungandr said Newt smelled very nice and was very peaceful and friendly."
Newt lowered his head and smiled shyly, "Thank you, they are special too."
The three snakes didn't stay there for long before going upstairs together, probably to rest.
After the meal, Newt continued to go to the forest. Gloria asked Draco to do his homework first, and she had something to say to Dumbledore.
Inviting the principal over during the summer vacation is not just a simple invitation, there are more important things to discuss.
In the quiet room, Dumbledore asked first: "What do you want to say, Gloria?"
"About dealing with Voldemort."
Dumbledore straightened his wizard robes and sat up straighter. "You don't have to worry about this. Even if he comes back, he can't start a war immediately. I am also looking for information and whereabouts of other Horcruxes."
Gloria shook her head. "That's not what I meant. What do you think of the three snakes in my house?"
"Very powerful." Dumbledore knew that the three snakes were not simple just by looking at them. "If I'm not mistaken, they have been by your side throughout the school year."
Gloria did not deny it, "Yes, but just stay with me. Almost no one in the world can deal with them."
Dumbledore understood, "So this is the reason you can say that Voldemort should die."
"Not exactly. I have to tell you something very unfortunate. My snakes cannot attack Slytherin blood with Parseltongue ability." Gloria said, "This command integrated into their bodies is mainly to prevent family infighting and mutual harm. Now it also restricts me from letting them deal with Voldemort."
“So you come to me for cooperation.”
Gloria breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I will do my best to assist you and Harry when he returns."
Harry is recognized as the savior by the wizarding world, and Voldemort must kill him to stabilize his identity and status as the Dark Lord.
The three snakes are powerful, but they will become weak if they are hit by the killing curse too many times. In Gloria's heart, they are equivalent to relatives, not weapons for use in war, and she will not let them take action unless it is necessary.
Dumbledore stroked his long beard and said, "I am pleased that you have such an idea, but if Voldemort really returns, he will need to gather his subordinates. Compared with his status as a descendant of Gaunt, your surname has more appeal to pure-blood families."
"I'll give it a try," Gloria said. "You know some families are hopeless and not worth bothering with, and it takes time."
