Chapter 599: Newt Scamander

~6 min read 1,192 words

There was a notice board in the circular hall of Ilvermorny, on which were written the magic courses offered on Christmas and other large-character notices.

One of them was very conspicuous, which was that Ilvermorny had an honorary professor who would teach them a three-day Magical Creatures class.

"The place to sign up is here,"

The Horned Serpent House prefect said with hidden enthusiasm; she couldn't help but want to laugh the first time she saw Xiang Xien,

"Mr. Green, Greylock Mountain is not that freezing cold."

Xiang Xien, who was wrapped tightly, nodded in agreement.

"You can call me Tina,"

Witch Tina took down a document in the circular hall, which was a form for counting the number of people,

"I am responsible for counting the number of students who elected the course in Horned Serpent House... because it is Professor Scamander, many people chose this course...

We are lucky enough; after all, since Professor Scamander became an honorary professor, this master hasn't taught many classes.

It is rumored that Professor Scamander took the position of honorary professor at the school because of his wife... logically speaking, if he really wanted to be a professor, he should go to Hogwarts."

Witch Tina blinked at Xiang Xien.

"The time is ten o'clock in the morning, and the location is Ilvermorny Forest."

Witch Tina handed over a book that was not too thick.

"Thank you for your help."

Xiang Xien said. Then he took the book, and as soon as he saw the title, he was stunned instead.

"Ilvermorny: A School History."

He flipped through the book. Except for being thinner, this book was not much different from the content recorded in "Hogwarts: A School History," and like "Hogwarts: A School History," it attached a map of Ilvermorny school in the same position.

"The dining hall is behind the entrance hall; good luck, Mr. Green. It is said that the Magical Creatures class is not simple."

Witch Tina left with the form.

Ilvermorny's dining hall was as wide as Hogwarts' Great Hall, but there were no thousands of floating candles, nor a dome created by magic.

However, Xiang Xien still enjoyed a sumptuous lunch, which included at least one hundred turkeys and a pile of Christmas puddings, as well as a mountain of Crippich wizard small crispy cookies.

Witch Tina sat not far from him, discussing the Magical Creatures class later with her companions.

"It is said that Mr. Scamander can communicate with animals in a way that most wizards do not possess. He can communicate with different creatures from birth and establish connections with them. But..."

A witch with fire-red hair said.

"But it is a bit difficult for us."

The wizard wearing the Horned Serpent House badge took over the conversation.

"Every time, the students in class are in a rush... I guess it's because they didn't read 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' carefully; that book is actually very detailed."

Witch Tina seemed very confident.

Not far away.

Xiang Xien had long been immersed in the pale yellow pages at the end of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them":

【In many ways, writing "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was something I loved to do. When I look back and read this early work, the past events printed on every page are still vivid in my mind. My best wish is that a new generation of witches and wizards will find new reasons in this book to love and protect those incredibly magical animals that share magic with us...】

At the end of the upcoming class, he read the book again, and he had also memorized the details about magical creatures in it more than once.

Just like this, recalling and preparing, it was soon time for class.

Ilvermorny Forest was not far from the right side of the founder's statue; when passing by here, Xiang Xien could see the Pukwudgie called "William" wiping Isolt Sayre's statue.

It didn't know what it was saying when it saw the buttons on Xiang Xien's body. Finally, it disappeared from the spot violently, looking very angry.

In the forest not far from the statue, Xiang Xien had already seen Mr. Scamander.

He was standing by the sunlight in the forest clearing, and an old brown leather briefcase was placed at his feet.

He was wearing an old brown coat and basically didn't look people in the eye.

He just turned his body slightly, sweeping over the young wizards with clear, shy, and timid eyes.

Time had left wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but it hadn't changed the innocent and focused temperament on him.

Without an opening statement, they naturally started the class.

"Runespoor mainly feed on mice and birds..."

Newt said, and in an instant, his suitcase opened a slit, and a very, very small black shadow darted out like a shadow.

The students were all taken aback.

"XXXX-level creature..."

Witch Tina was a bit stunned.

The Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic had classified all creatures, and XXXX-level referred to dangerous magical creatures that required specialized knowledge and skilled wizards to deal with... such dangerous animals were placed in front of them?

After the creature with wings and feathers crawled out, it chased after the insects in the forest without hesitation.

Some of the students were trembling, and some were looking at the Runespoor curiously.

"Runespoor generally feed on insects, mice, and birds, but sometimes they also catch monkeys..."

Newt explained. With high concentration, the students should have a deep impression after finishing the class.

When Bai Yi on Xiang Xien's shoulder flew over curiously, the Runespoor fled quickly.

"When young, Runespoor are also afraid of owls... Una has just reached adulthood and is still a bit timid..."

Newt was not disturbed by the change and still explained timidly.

After a while, the Runespoor suddenly became huge, and a single feather on its head was a size larger than the little wizards.

"Runespoor can expand and contract at will, so it can be large enough to fill all space, or shrink its body according to the available space."

Newt smiled shallowly, and some students observed curiously and fearfully while taking notes.

"Runespoor will grow bigger, Bai Yi..."

Xiang Xien took notes while calling Bai Yi in a low voice.

The silver-white owl looked at the Runespoor curiously, then looked at Xiang Xien, as if it understood something, and swallowed the cookie on its neck in one gulp.

So soon, a fire dragon about the same size as the Runespoor stood in front of Newt and let out a dragon roar.

"Bai Yi!"

Xiang Xien's empty talisman floated up, and under the traction of soul transformation, Bai Yi quickly changed back by itself.

At the same time, the Runespoor seemed to be frightened, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed toward the little wizards, and it also became only a few inches long.

The little wizards were also frightened and screaming.

Newt was not worried; he looked at Bai Yi, his eyes lighting up. ===== CHAPTER 600 =====
