Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

Early morning.

The North Gate of Hogwarts.

It's a rest day to Hogsmeade again, so the little wizards have all come early after breakfast, and everyone has an expectant look on their faces.

Lorne brought an orange-red scarf and Hermione to the place.

He looked around, but didn't notice either Harry or Ron.

If nothing else, the two of them should have gone from the secret passage with Ginny to Duke Honey's candy shop.

After all, Ginny was only in her second year and was not allowed to go to Hogsmeade at all.

And Harry, as her boyfriend, naturally had to take her out with him.

"Morning, you two. "

Fred and George walked over and waved to them.

However, compared to the grinning look they used to have, their faces now looked a little tired, and even dark circles appeared at the corners of their eyes.

"What's going on with you two?"

Lorne clasped Hermione's small hand and walked over and asked curiously.

It was the first time he had seen these two brothers have such tired expressions, and even when he was making cards and werewolf killing, he didn't look so tired...

"Study—we've been reviewing that knowledge every day these nights..."

George shook his head helplessly and said.

Hearing this, Lorne also remembered that the two of them were going to take the General Wizard Rank Exam (O.W.L) this year.

"Maybe you should get some rest today. "

Lorne chuckled comfortingly.

He had also read the relevant content of this exam, and most of the knowledge had been learned, and the difficulty was not too great.

And with the hard work of these two people, it shouldn't be a problem to get a good grade at the end of this semester.

"We're okay, Percy is ready for the ultimate wizarding exam - you know, he wants to work at the Ministry of Magic after graduation. "

Fred said from the side.

"He's completely insane, staying in the library all day, and we haven't seen him this semester. "

"Alright, now come and assemble!"

A hoarse and grim voice rang out.

Filch approached with his Lady Loris in his arms, holding in his hand a long list of the wizards who were going to Hogsmeade this time.

And the other professor who appeared beside him instantly stunned all the little wizards.

"Why is he here?" Fred whispered, puzzled,

"Didn't Professor McGonagall take us to Hogsmeade, and when did it change to Professor Snape?" Hermione was stunned.

Looking at Snape in the black robe, Lorne subconsciously looked at his side, and saw the little witch in the green robe at a glance.

Sure enough—Lily, who had joined Slytherin, arrived.

As Filch finished calling names, the young wizards stood still, waiting for Snape to take them out.

The atmosphere was different from what it used to be, and if it had been for Professor McGonagall's leadership, they would have been discussing where to go by now.

Pity... Leading the team today is Snape.

"Let's go too. "

Lorne peeked out from behind Hermione, his pale blue eyes looking at Lily and Snape in front of them.

It seems that Lily hasn't noticed him yet—but it's only a matter of time before he does.

After all, he couldn't hide his face in Hogwarts.

This time the journey was very boring, everyone could only whisper and communicate, and they didn't dare to make too loud noises.

Lorne looked at the forest and snow around him, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Beside him, Hermione was enjoying the scenery with brown eyes.

It was as if these two were out for a walk.

Fred and George were following the two of them, talking and laughing about the game at the Hog's Head Bar.

Obviously, the two of them also knew about this Hearthstone match - this time they came to Hogsmeade Village specifically to watch it.

Or rather, to learn from experience, because Fred is also going to hold a tournament in the future.

Of course, there are bonuses.

After several years of marketing, the pockets of the two of them have long been bulging.

Arguably the two richest people in the Weasley family.

Lorne listened to their exchange and couldn't help but make some suggestions for relevance.

The twins' eyes lit up as they listened to the proposal, and they quickly took out their notebooks and quill pens to write them down.

After arriving at Hogsmeade Village.

Lorne pulled Hermione out of the crowd and headed for Duke Honey's shop.

However, when she reached the door, Hermione saw Harry and Ginny holding a large pile of candy.

"Come—this pile for you. "

Harry smiled and handed them a bag of candy, then gestured to the candy shop behind them.

"Now that it's full, I guess you won't be able to squeeze in. "

"Thank you. "

Lorne chuckled and took the candy.

"It's okay, and you didn't bring me candy very often. "

Harry replied with a smile.

It can be seen that he is in a good mood today.

However, since Harry was still going to the pig's head bar to participate in the game, the group was separated.

Looking at their departing backs, Lorne looked up at the blue sky.

An idea popped into my head.

"Let's go, I'll take you to a good place. "

Lorne chuckled and took Hermione's small hand and walked out into the snowy forest in the distance.

"Where are we going?"

Hermione looked deeper and deeper into the forest and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Above the clouds. "

As the words fell, Hermione's eyes slowly widened, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Don't... Is it like last time?

Looking at the silence of the jungle around him, Lorne let go of Hermione's small hand and took a few steps into the distance.

Animagus... I haven't used it in a long time.

The corners of Lorne's mouth curled, and the next moment, his skin turned into scales that shone with golden light, and his entire body gradually increased.

In a short time, a tall golden dragon appeared in the forest, and several tall trees around it fell to the ground with a loud noise.

Hermione held a pile of candy and looked at him with a ripple in her eyes.

As she sat cautiously atop the golden dragon's head, the azure light enveloping her against the resistance of the wind.

"Ready..."

Lorne whispered.

With a loud bang, a golden dragon rushed straight into the sea of clouds in the sky like a golden arrow.
