Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One dungbomb after another rained down, filling the Great Hall with an unbearable stench.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Students fled the hall as Professor McGonagall stormed in, furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even this chaos couldn't dampen the Slytherins' spirits. On the contrary, students from other houses gradually began to join in the cheers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slytherins admired strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, the other houses admired reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of this incident, even in class, the professors all went noticeably easy on the students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I told you John Wick would become a big name,\" Ernie Macmillan bragged, showing off his \"foresight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said to Hannah Abbott, \"Back in first year, I already knew he was going to be amazing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm mhm mhm,\" Hannah Abbott, with her braided hair, replied in an admiring tone, \"And in second year, he protected Justin, and even fought the Basilisk!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the people who displayed the picture of John fighting the Basilisk on their walls back in the second year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, he's our guardian angel,\" said Justin Finch-Fletchley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're all pretty smart,\" Draco Malfoy strutted over, chest puffed out with pride, \"but I knew even earlier than all of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone shouted from the crowd, \"You mean that time he beat you up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Malfoy: \"…\" ಥ_ಥ They still remember the first day of school!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Who said that? Step forward!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh—Look! John is here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When John finally returned, he was immediately swarmed and lifted up by the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh.. hey guys. What's going on—Woah! Woah! What the..\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, he tried to resist a bit, but there were too many people—so he gave up and went with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was how he was carried back to the Slytherin common room, with girls along the way squealing in admiration and asking for his autograph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But strangely, before any of their pens could reach John, they'd mysteriously vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pansy, leading the Slytherin girls, firmly blocked those butterflies from getting through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave Daphne a hand signal, standing there like a warrior ready to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne was moved to tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Malfoy gave up his usual routine of taunting Harry, and instead cleared a path like a proper vanguard all the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John also ran into Professor Trelawney, who, in her usual mystical manner, said, \"Child, I knew it. I saw your glorious future in the Inner Eye.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John gave her a polite smile and replied, \"Thank you, Professor Trelawney.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only she drank a little less, maybe the smell of alcohol wouldn't be so overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since Umbridge had placed her on probation, Trelawney had started drinking heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't seem interested in celebrating with Slytherin. After saying her piece, she turned and headed back to the Astronomy Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, John paid a visit to Hagrid's hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hagrid carefully cradled the Order of Merlin Second-class medal in his rough, oversized hands, his voice gruff with emotion. \"You're amazing, John. I'll never have a chance to even touch one of these in my whole life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, Hagrid didn't care that much about the Merlin Medal itself—what made it feel so precious was that it had been awarded to a friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even prepared a gift for John: a few rare magical materials from the Forbidden Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John accepted it and also healed the new injuries Hagrid had somehow sustained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next time you get hurt, contact me directly,\" John said with a frown. \"We're friends, Hagrid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hagrid let out a goofy laugh, marveling at John's magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Madam Pomfrey would need some time to treat those wounds—but John fixed them with a single spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your magical ability might already be on par with the professors,\" Hagrid praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John went to feed the Thestrals. The little one from last time had grown quite a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it seemed a bit afraid of Zouwu. With Zouwu nearby, it didn't dare to move around much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tucking the Merlin Medal into his small satchel, John set off toward the unicorn habitat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed a few unicorn horns and some other materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weiwei was very happy to see him—John had brought the Constellations drink again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had already become an unspoken ritual between them: John would bring the Constellations, and the unicorns would offer up unicorn horns in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden liquor had even Clarke enchanted. \"This is the best brew I've ever tasted. The magic in it helps the unicorns grow stronger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John had prepared three bottles—one was opened on the spot, and Clarke immediately stashed away the remaining two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clarke had to be cautious with those greedy little unicorns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To that, Weiwei insisted she definitely wasn't the one being referred to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After retrieving a few unicorn horns from a tree hollow, John also wanted to pick some leaves from the big tree nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That tree was very important to the unicorns, but in honor of the Constellations, Clarke reluctantly agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his way out of the unicorn habitat, John encountered some centaurs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get out of our Forbidden Forest!\" one centaur barked irritably. \"And take that big beast wizard with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"big beast wizard\" referred to Hagrid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John looked up, and his oppressive aura fell heavily upon the centaurs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch your tongue,\" John said coldly. \"It's not your Forbidden Forest—it's ours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That remark infuriated the centaurs. One of them raised a bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We don't harm the young,\" another centaur said, pulling the archer's hand down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They lowered their weapons. As John walked past them, he suddenly drew his wand and pointed in a direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of white light shot from the tip of his wand, piercing through five or six large trees, finally striking the ground and blasting open a deep crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dust and debris flew everywhere, and the trees crashed down with a thunderous sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, the centaurs reared up in a panic, hooves stomping the forest floor in chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John said flatly, \"I don't harm the young either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The centaurs glared at him, their eyes burning with rage. John's pupils narrowed into vertical slits, his voice turning glacial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>||Look at me like that again, and I'll consider it a challenge.||\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The centaur under his gaze went pale, his limbs went cold, and he collapsed as if frozen stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you do to him?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a little lesson,\" John said calmly. \"So you learn to control your temper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John looked calmly at the centaur who seemed a bit more rational and said, \"You should know—I'm capable of certain things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The centaur's expression turned ugly, but he didn't argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fallen centaur wasn't in any real danger, but his body was so stiff he couldn't move at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To John, wiping out this group of centaurs would be effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their arrows couldn't pierce his scales, and his shadows could easily swallow their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Centaurs were highly skilled in Divination and extremely sensitive to danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they were hot-tempered, after sensing genuine danger from John, they didn't dare speak recklessly anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember—if my friend Hagrid is ever troubled, I'll repay the centaurs a hundredfold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John had little patience for these squatters trying to claim dominion. After issuing the warning, he left the Forbidden Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after he returned to the castle, he received an unexpected letter from an unexpected person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eh..?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at Daphne, and after confirming that the letter hadn't been delivered to the wrong recipient, his expression turned rather strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A letter from Mr. Greengrass? For me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't addressed to Daphne—it was addressed to John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John felt strange, as if he had written to Malfoy and told him that he wanted to talk to his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only difference was that this letter had been handed directly to John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened it, and his eyes quickly scanned the contents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_________\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>o(*￣▽￣*)ブSupport and Read 12 Chapters ahead: Patreon\u002FDragonel\u003C\u002Fp>",1580,"2026-06-06T11:45:53.361Z",1,"novelbin.me","711d626539e97815f12e1de6d7356c87f081de7857e03d752ea7cbd12de1bcbd","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-324","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-322",577,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-john-wick-cover.jpg"]
