Erwin shook his head. "I'm sorry, Hagrid. I know you're reluctant, but there's nothing I can do! You have to understand, at the dragon's growth rate, it'll be huge in half a month! By then, your little hut won't be able to accommodate it! Its instinct will send it hunting in the Forbidden Forest. Even if I can restrain it, it's not a long-term solution! Hagrid, you don't want the other creatures in the Forbidden Forest to suffer, right?"

Hagrid lowered his head at this.

"I know Erwin!"

Erwin nodded. "In half a month, on Christmas Eve, many young wizards will be going home! Hogwarts has few students, so it's not easy to attract attention. I will arrange for someone to come to your cabin and pick up Norbert!"

Unlike in the original book, Alvin doesn't need to let Harry Potter and his fellow fools take Norbert to the tower.

Because Alvin can directly open some of Hogwarts' permissions and let them come to Hagrid's hut to pick people up.

Even if Alvin had the time, he could go to the dragon farm in advance to familiarize himself with the place.

Then he could come back and Apparate with Norbert, but Erwin didn't have that much free time.

After telling Hagrid some trivial matters.

Erwin teased Norbert for a while longer.

He strictly forbade Norbert from following his ideas and told him that he had to behave himself for the next half month, after getting Norbert's consent.

Erwin leads the new trio out of Hagrid's hut.

On the way back to Hogwarts.

Draco hesitated to speak.

Erwin said, "Just say what you want to say, don't be so shy!"

Draco said, "Chief, I just want to know! Why did Harry, Hermione and I persuade Hagrid for such a long time, but Hagrid refused to give in? But when you went there, it seemed like you didn't persuade him, you just informed him and told him what to do! And he agreed!"

Hermione and Harry Potter beside them also looked at Erwin.

Erwin stopped and turned around.

"Actually, the reason is very simple. Hagrid knows you're doing this for his own good, but Hagrid's love for magical creatures is beyond your imagination. He can even lose his mind for them! This is his only hobby. So, even though he knows you're doing this for his own good, he still can't bear to give up the opportunity to raise a dragon!"

"As for why he listened to me, it's very simple. Hagrid knew that I knew more than him, or rather, he trusted me and felt that I could help him come up with the best solution! I gave him the opportunity to raise a dragon, even though it was only for half a month, but it was the fulfillment of his dream! Moreover, Hagrid knew very well that if I asked him to raise a dragon for half a month, then no one would have the chance to cause trouble for him during this half month! As long as he didn't take Norbert out of Hogwarts, I could find a way to make this happen for him!"

Draco and the other two looked thoughtful.

Erwin continued, "If you want others to believe in you, you must have the ability to solve problems. Just like you said, Hagrid and I didn't try to persuade him, but instead helped him arrange it directly! It's because Hagrid knows that I have the ability to solve this matter. So, Draco! The three of you remember, make yourself capable of solving all problems. This is the reason for your efforts!"

Erwin didn't go on to say more.

For kids of their age, what Erwin said now was profound enough.

The three of them also needed time to digest what Erwin said.

Growth does not happen overnight. It requires a guide and requires one to summarize the experience after repeated encounters.

Alvin can tell them some truths, but how much they can absorb depends on their own understanding.

Fortunately, these three seem to have pretty good comprehension.

Although Draco in the original book is just a second-generation rich man who only knows how to call his father.

But in fact, Draco is actually quite good.

Whether it is ultimately sticking to his good intentions, or Draco's gradual growth.

He is just a spoiled child.

But this cannot deny that Draco, as a pure-blood family, has continued for generations.

Apart from anything else, the world that old Malfoy took Draco to see was beyond the reach of a child from an ordinary family.

There is a saying in Daxia: if three generations are rich, they are wealthy businessmen; if five generations are rich, they are wealthy families; and only if nine generations are rich, they can be called a noble family.

This is not only about wealth, but also about knowledge.

A person who has received a good education and has been frequenting high-class gatherings since childhood, even if his own achievements are limited, his knowledge and experience are still there.

Therefore, Alvin has always said that he is optimistic about Draco, not just to make promises, he really has plans for Draco, and there will be a place for Draco in Alvin's territory in the future.

In addition, Hermione is smart, so although she cannot understand everything that Erwin said due to her age and experience, Erwin has planted a seed in him.

As for the final Harry Potter.

Although in the original work, our savior is a little silly and cute.

But as the saying goes, children from poor families grow up early, and Harry Potter has experienced so many tragic things.

I have a quality that others don't have, and that is resilience.

A successful person possesses many qualities, some of which are innate, but most of which are cultivated later. The innate qualities are called talent. No matter how good the talent is, it needs later polishing. The story of Zhongyong tells us that later training is far greater than innate talent.

Of all these qualities, resilience is the hardest to cultivate.

This requires a lot of unfortunate experiences and a hard life to be honed.

Resilience determines a person's upper limit.

Although Alvin looked down on the so-called savior, he had to admit that if Harry was trained well, he would be able to achieve something in the future.

This is also the reason why Erwin is willing to take the trouble to teach the three of them.

Because they are talented and capable, Alvin is used to casting a wide net. As long as there is a fish that can make it into the dragon gate in one of the nets, it is a profit for Alvin.

Ignoring the new trio.

Erwin went straight back to the Slytherin common room.

He was very busy and had no time to waste with the three of them. He had other things to do.

Sit at the desk.

Erwin leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and rested for a moment.

Time passed by little by little.

In a blink of an eye, it was already past five in the afternoon.

Erwin opened his eyes.

Stand up.

Stretched.

"It should be about time!"

Erwin had just finished speaking.

Old Tom contacted Erwin.

"Master, everyone is here!"

Erwin exhaled a breath of foul air, then the real game began!
