Chapter 95: Fairy tales are all lies! (Edited)

Fish took less than an hour to complete the task, which surprised Professor McGonagall, who had thought he was just talking.

But more than that, she was happy.

"You little bastard, you can do it that fast, can't you?"

Professor McGonagall scolded with a smile as she cupped Fish's little face.

"Meow meow meow meow...?"

Struggling to free herself from Professor McGonagall's hands, Fish took several steps backwards, covering hus cheeks, before replying with a straight face, "Because writing all the time is too boring, meow!"(ノ)`w'(ヽ)

"Why don't you finish writing sooner so you can go play earlier?"

Professor McGonagall was still trying to straighten Fish out.

"Of course I do, meow! Isn't that what I did today meow?", However, Fish cheerfully replied, "But when there's nothing else going on, I usually play with Minerva!"

"So you usually pick on me on purpose?!"

A furious Professor McGonagall reached out to pinch Fish's cheeks again, only for Fish to slip under her arm and flee the office without looking back.

"I'm done with my homework! I'm off to play with Fluffy, meow!"

Rushing out of Professor McGonagall's office, Fish watched the office door for a moment to make sure she wasn't coming after him, then wagged his tail in triumph and headed for the kitchen.

After filling his magical bag of food in the kitchen, Fish headed down the fourth floor hallway, but instead of breaking down the door, he pulled out his wand.

After that encounter with the mean old man, he had taught Fish how to open the door, so Fish had been getting out of the habit of breaking them.

"Fluffy! I've come to see you, meow!".

Opening the door, Fish greeted Fluffy cheerfully, then took food out of his magic bag and gestured for him to come and enjoy the meal.

"Woof-woof!"×3

Fluffy's three heads barked happily at the same time and approached Fish, two of them buried themselves in the pile of food, while the rightmost head stuck out its tongue to lick Fish.

"Meow, no licking!"

Fish, who had experienced the same experience many times, didn't even look at him, grabbed a chicken leg with one hand and bit it, and hit Fluffy's nose with his free hand.

"Ouch..."

Fluffy's head shrunk after receiving the slap.

"You've grown three heads for nothing, you're not as smart as Fang." (●Φ~Φ●●)

Fish, who still had food in his mouth, shook his head vaguely and sighed.

At least Fang had learned not to go over and lick him, Fluffy had three big heads, but he hadn't learned yet, but Hagrid could be a bit of a fool sometimes.

Fish chewed his food, while his mind wandered.

But he quickly snapped out of it and grabbed a pork chop from the pile and tossed it upwards.

"Fluffy, catch meow!"

"Whoa!"

Fluffy, who was lying on the ground nibbling on his food, immediately stood up, his three heads popped up at the same time, one of them opened its mouth and caught the pork chop Fish had thrown, swallowing it without chewing.

This was a game Fish occasionally played with Fluffy and Fang, he first learned it from Hagrid, but Fluffy was too big and the space was too small for it to work, and Fish was more apt to play frisbee toss with Fang.

After throwing some food, he calmly pulled a potion bottle out of his pocket and sprinkled it on a piece of roast lamb, then tossed it into the air as usual.

The potion he sprinkled on the lamb was, in fact, the answer to the first question Snape had asked Harry in a Potions class, a potent sleeping potion made with a combination of daffodil root powder and wormwood, a Living Dead Potion.

Although Fish had trapped Fluffy earlier with a soft stone spell, he had actually gotten free very quickly and, given his size, even if he was trapped on the ground, Fish would have had a very hard time moving him if he had just put his paws or head or something on the trapdoor.

Even though he had all kinds of spells to strengthen himself, Fluffy's size was too big, and his strength was too big, so Fish couldn't compete with his strength even with all his buffs.

So Fish understood that his chances of success to get in were not good.

But he hadn't been reading all those fairy tale books for nothing these days! In addition to the useless skills of rolling and running away from home, he had also learned to be more cunning!

In "The Tale of the Three Brothers," the oldest of the three got drunk and killed and stole the old wand, and although Fish couldn't get alcohol, he brought a potion he'd made in Potions class.

Fish had already tried the effects of the potion, not only testing it himself, but also giving it to Fang and Hagrid in secret, and needless to say, they both slept soundly.

Fish originally wanted to give a dose of the Living Dead Potion to the stinky guy to get him to skip class, but he never got the chance, and then he learned the bubblehead spell, so the matter was left unresolved.

If Scarhead and the others hadn't suddenly mentioned the trapdoor to Fish yesterday, this thing would have been forgotten in a corner of his magic bag.

As Fish watched expectantly, Fluffy swallowed the roast lamb, which had been sprinkled with a dose of Living Dead Potion, without warning.

And then...

Nothing happened.

A dose of Living Dead Potion was indeed a very powerful sleeping pill, but even more powerful was the stomach acid of a three-headed dog.

Just as Fluffy's fur is resistant to most magic spells, most magic potions don't work on Fluffy, whose stomach acid can melt even rocks, and a single dose of the Living Dead Potion isn't even qualified to confuse him for a while.

There was a reason the three-headed dog was considered one of the best guardians by wizards.

"Damn, those fairy tale books really aren't very reliable!"

Fish didn't mind this, knowing that he had failed yet another trick he had learned from fairy tales, after rolling over and running away from home.

"Wow!" ×3

Fluffy, who knew nothing of this, saw Fish suddenly stop moving and urged him to keep going.

But Fish had no desire to continue playing with Fluffy after the failure of his plan.

"No more games, meow! I'm not in the mood!"

Fish angrily sat cross-legged, crossed his hands over his chest and turned his head to reject Fluffy's call.

"Ouch?"

Fluffy's six big eyes were full of confusion, he didn't understand why Fish had suddenly become angry, so he wagged his tail, dropped down and stuck out his tongue to lick Fish's face....

And rightly so, he got a slap from Fish.

"Ouch..."

Fluffy backed up a few steps, not understanding what he had done wrong.

However, with those few steps back, he was able to move a little further away from the trapdoor, and to Fish's surprise, he found that....

At this distance, it seemed too late for Fluffy to stop him!

As Fish unleashed the Soft Stone Spell, he himself leapt towards the trapdoor.
