Impure Parseltongue Cursing!

(Going back to the moment after Lucas disappeared from the Forbidden Forest.)

Professor McGonagall led the crowd to look for Lucas' whereabouts.

Several people turned the acromantula's nest upside down but still found no trace of Lucas.

"Hagrid, are you sick? Why are you sweating so much?"

"No, it's nothing!"

Hagrid was very worried, he is too familiar with this place, it is the territory of his pet Aragog.

The thought of Lucas fighting Aragog disappeared.

He was more worried about the recurrence of the events fifty years ago.

In fact, until now he still has a record in the Ministry of Magic, and if it is confirmed that a student had an accident in the Forbidden Forest.

The Ministry of Magic would probably think of him first and put him in Azkaban without even giving him a chance to defend himself in a fair trial.

After all, he is a half giant so he has very little rights in the wizarding world.

Harry looked at the guilty Hagrid very puzzled, then he realized that it was Hagrid who led them into the Forbidden Forest today and he may be afraid of being punished.

"Hagrid, don't worry, Lucas is strong, he will be fine."

After searching for a while Professor McGonagall suggested going back to the castle first.

Maybe Lucas had already gone back with Dumbledore.

Hermione was still worried though, but seeing that the professors nodded in agreement she had no choice but to follow and go back to the Ravenclaw Tower.

"Hermione, are you alright? What happened in the Forbidden Forest just now, you're worrying me to death."

Hermione had just returned to the Ravenclaw common room and Cho greeted her with a worried face.

"Cho, I'm fine."

Hermione doesn't look like she's okay right now.

It's just that everyone thought she was just frightened, so they didn't continue to ask.

Another hour or so passed and the students in the common room also returned to their rooms to rest.

Hermione came out of the dormitory fully dressed, and holding a wand in hand, she returned to the Forbidden Forest.

"Lucas! Can you hear me?"

~Awoooooo~

The howling of wolves in the distance startled the little witch since she had long heard that there were werewolves in the Forbidden Forest.

But thinking that there is still no news of Lucas until now, she suppressed the fear in her heart and with firm eyes, walked deep into the Forbidden Forest.

"Lucas, where the hell have you been?"

"My beautiful lady, may I help you?"

A familiar voice behind her made Hermione stop.

She turned around sharply and saw that the person she was worried about was standing under a big tree and looking at her.

She didn't know why but seeing the smile on his face.

Hermione, who was still worried, became very angry.

She didn't say anything, but walked towards Lucas step by step.

Just as Lucas was about to tell Hermione that he was fine, he was staggered by a huge force.

"Laughing? I'm almost dying of worry, but you're still laughing?"

"Where did you go? Why didn't you show up until now?"

"Do you know how worried I am, you bloody bastard!"

The little witch's anger took Lucas by surprise.

Fists rained down on him and he had no choice but to admit his mistake and apologize first.

Looking at the tears in Hermione's eyes, Lucas pulled her into his arms.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't just disappear without saying anything, I promise to tell you first no matter what I do in the future."

Hermione struggled twice, then relaxed in his arms when he didn't let go.

"You bastard, you really make people worry!"

Hearing the little witch whimpering, Lucas breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that her anger was gone.

"I'm sorry, I won't do it next time, and thank you for coming to find me!"

The two embraced and stayed like that for a long time.

"Oh~ so our Mr. Grindelwald knows how to go back to school."

A low, monotonous voice came from the gate of the castle.

Watching Snape walk in front of him with a sullen face Lucas said with a wry smile, "Professor Snape, haven't you slept yet?"

"Thanks to some stupid, arrogant guy, the heads of the four houses can't rest until now, Mr. Grindelwald, what do you think I should do with him?"

"I'm sorry Professor!"

"No no no, you don't need to apologize, as punishment for almost burning the Forbidden Forest to ashes, Slytherin will lose 2 points."

"In addition, because of your stupidity and arrogance, you have delayed the normal rest of the professors, so another 3 points will be deducted."

"Now, go back to your dormitory immediately, or I will have to continue deducting points from my house."

Lucas was about to nod when he suddenly remembered Hermione sleeping in his arms.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Snape added: "Send this dunderhead who trespassed in the Forbidden Forest back to where she should be, and then go back to your dormitory."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and entered the castle with his robes billowing dramatically as he walked.

After sending Hermione back to the Ravenclaw Tower, Lucas walked down the stairs to the dungeons.

Hogwarts at night is very scary.

At this time there is no light in the deep corridors and from time to time, the hooting of owls could be heard coming from the darkness.

Lucas held his wand all the way to the second floor where he faintly heard someone crying.

Following the sound of the cries, he came to the girls' bathroom on the second floor.

'Since I'm here, why not try to see if I can open the chamber of secrets.'

Lucas pushed open the bathroom door.

Moaning Myrtle was weeping as always. Being suddenly interrupted, she got angry very fast.

But when she saw the person who broke in, she immediately shouted in horror: "Grindelwald!"

As soon as the words fell, she turned into a stream and fell headfirst into the toilet in the cubicle.

Lucas ignored Myrtle's surprise and came to the round washbasin in the middle, looking carefully for the faucet with the engraved snake pattern.

Soon the faucet appeared in front of his eyes.

"Ahem!"

"Hiss——————"

Lucas practiced the sound of a snake.

Then tried imitating the voice in the movie and said: "Open!"

He waited about 30 seconds but the mechanism of the washbasin did not respond at all.

Lucas said again in disbelief: "Open!"

"Speak to me, Slytherin, the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."

"Salazar, Lord of the Slytherins!"

"Salazar is an ugly monkey!"

"Stupid, pompous Slytherin!"

If Lucas tried to open the Chamber of Secrets in a serious manner at first.

Then the latter words are purely scolding.

It turns out that Parseltongue doesn't work just by imitating it.

Even Dumbledore can only understand Parseltongue, but not speak Parseltongue.

As for Ron, well, he's an exception! Maybe he's a secret parseltongue and never told anyone, or Dumbledore might have done something to the entrance.

"Mr. Lucas Grindelwald."

Suddenly, a strange voice came from behind.

Lucas turned and raised his wand, but seeing Cedric appear at the door, he was relieved.

"So it's you, Cedric, what are you doing on the second floor so late?"

Cedric turned to look at the girl's bathroom sign hanging outside.

The expression on his face was tangled for a long time, not knowing whether to ask or not.

"I'm hungry and looking for something to eat, you..."

Cedric glanced at Lucas, then at the sign on the door.

"Also, don't get me wrong, this bathroom has been abandoned long ago, and no one usually comes here."

Cedric nodded, but he didn't look very convinced.

Lucas didn't explain anymore, he walked to the door and looked at the Hufflepuff boy curiously.

"Cedric, I remember correctly, you should be a third grader?"

"That's right, what's wrong?"

Lucas shook his head: "I'm just curious, you've been in Hogwarts for so long, and you don't even know where the kitchen is."

As he spoke, he led Cedric to the basement.

The Hogwarts kitchen is actually not far from Hufflepuff's dormitory.

The two came to a portrait of fruit and Cedric looked at Lucas puzzled, only to see that Lucas reached out and scratched a pear in the painting.

The pear actually giggled and immediately afterwards it turned into a doorknob.

Lucas opened the door and they saw hundreds of house elves busy making breakfast for the next day.

"Oh! A distinguished guest has come to the kitchen. Hello, what can Beechy do for you?"

"Give me a cup of black tea, please, and prepare something for this gentleman to eat."

After Lucas finished speaking, he looked at Cedric behind him who hadn't recovered yet.

When he reacted, several pieces of cake and bread had appeared in front of him.

"Thanks!"

"Oh Merlin! The distinguished guest actually said thank you to Beechy, Beechy is so moved!"

The house-elf cried with teary eyes.

His appearance made Cedric a little bit uncomfortable.

Lucas was accustomed to the elves' weird behaviors and was calmly drinking black tea.

By the time the two left the kitchen, it was already half an hour later.

Looking at Hufflepuff's common room not far away.

Cedric said nervously, "Want to come to our common room?"

"Of course I will not refuse such an invitation."

Speaking of which, Lucas hasn't entered Hufflepuff's common room after so long.

It seems that he will get another achievement tonight.
