Chapter 770

Hagrid was absent-minded about the exam.

He brought over many Flobberworms.

He required them to keep the Flobberworms alive for one hour to pass the exam.

This was the easiest exam they had ever taken.

Darren felt that Hagrid was being irresponsible.

A year had passed, and they had only learned how to feed Flobberworms. Oh right, and how to open the Monster Book of Monsters that Hagrid had given them.

However, as a little Saintly Father, he naturally couldn't say that.

He looked at Hagrid with a melancholy expression and asked worriedly:

"Hagrid, did they say what the probability is of Buckbeak... of Buckbeak staying alive?"

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren's words harvested another batch of Saintly Father Value.

Because of Darren's recent efforts, he could now harvest max Saintly Father Value whenever he mentioned Buckbeak.

After all, he had recently shown everyone that he had sacrificed too much for Buckbeak.

"Beaky is a bit depressed... still have to wait for the appeal the day after tomorrow."

Hagrid whispered while pretending to check Darren's Flobberworms.

Then he looked at Darren again with a worried expression: "Darren, you must take care of your health; don't let Buckbeak be fine, only for you to collapse yourself."

"But... now, every time I close my eyes, I can think of that verdict. I really..."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren lowered his head, choked with emotion.

It seemed as if he was hiding the sadness in his eyes.

Although they couldn't see his eyes, many people suspected that Darren must be crying.

He had always been so kind, and yet this time, he was being made to watch Buckbeak die with his own eyes.

For Darren, this must be an unbearable thing.

Even Malfoy felt his face burning; he felt he had gone too far.

But wanting to explain, he couldn't bring himself to say those words of concession.

Actually, even the things he told his father about Darren looking for a lawyer were just him bragging.

He actually didn't know at all that Darren was looking for a lawyer.

It wasn't until Darren was sad and heartbroken in the common room that he found out Darren was looking for a lawyer.

After he asked his father, he realized that Darren's house-elf had been too high-profile when looking for legal documents, and his father had noticed.

His father didn't mean to target Darren.

He just didn't think there was anything wrong with sentencing a beast to death.

But Draco felt terrible.

He even wanted to tell his father that he didn't want to vent his anger anymore.

But...

Forget it.

He was a Malfoy; how could he not be arrogant and domineering?
