Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

"what!"

Pansy trembled and fell into Dudley's arms. Dudley quickly hugged Pansy to protect her, and then shouted: "Hagrid, Fleur, help me, let Norberta calm down."

Hagrid and Fleur immediately grabbed Norberta's flesh wings. Seeing their actions, Norberta seemed to understand that she had done something she shouldn't have done, and she quickly regained her momentum and lay down on the ground.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Dudley gently stroked Pansy's short black hair, then frowned and looked at Norbeta: "Norbeta, what's wrong? Pansy is my friend, so you can't attack her."

Norberta nodded aggrievedly, looked at Pansy who had her head buried in Dudley's chest doubtfully, and then let out a few small "woohoo" sounds.

"It's okay, Pansy, Norberta is apologizing to you." Dudley comforted Pansy softly. The girl raised her head, her eyes were red, and turned to look at Norberta with some fear.

Norberta blinked a few times and moved her little head close to Pansy as a sign of goodwill.

But just when Pansy stretched out her hand tremblingly and was about to touch Norberta, Norberta suddenly shrank and hid, and then seemed to be annoyed by her own actions, shaking her head in grievance.

what happened?In Dudley's impression, Norberta has always been very clingy. Even a child like Gabrielle can get along well with Norberta. He has never seen her react like this to anyone.

The frightened Pansy buried her head in Dudley's chest again. Dudley felt that his shirt was wet with tears. The girl sobbed softly: "I'm sorry...she seems to hate me... ....”

Dudley looked at Hagrid, who was comforting Norberta. He also shook his head in confusion, saying that he didn't know the reason.And even Norberta, the instigator, blinked in confusion and looked at Dudley and Pansy with a depressed expression.

When Fleur looked at Pansy sobbing in Dudley's arms, she seemed to have lost her initial hostility. Instead, she whispered to Dudley: "Maybe it's just that Norberta just came back and is a little too tired. It's getting late too." , how about we go back today."

Dudley nodded gratefully. With this episode, no one was in the mood to continue celebrating Norberta's return.

On the way back to Hogwarts Castle, the atmosphere seemed a bit solemn, and none of the three said a word.

Pansy didn't know when she held Dudley's hand tightly, her head lowered so she couldn't see her expression.Although Fleur looked at the hands held by Dudley and Pansy from time to time, she seemed to be hesitant to speak, and finally said nothing.

"Okay, Dudley, I'll go back to the banquet hall first." Fleur said softly to Dudley, "After all, I have to follow the Ravenclaw students - are you going back to the dormitory directly?"

Dudley nodded. He looked at Pansy, who was beside him. He didn't know what trouble would happen if he took her back to the banquet hall.

After parting ways with Fleur, Dudley took Pansy towards Slytherin's dormitory, the Slytherin dungeon located in the underground passage.

Walking side by side with Pansy in the damp and cold underground passage, Dudley was still thinking about why Norberta couldn't control her reaction to Pansy.

"Maybe she just doesn't like me." Pansy said in a low voice, sighing softly, "I should have thought of it a long time ago... A bad girl like me must be unlovable. "

"Don't think so wildly, Pansy." Dudley quickly comforted him, "Maybe as Fleur said, Norberta was just tired and overreacted. I never thought you were a bad girl."

"Don't lie to me, Dudley. Not only Norbert, but also Potter and Delacour, they don't like me." Pansy said quietly, "I am a little delusional, everyone knows I'm not worthy of being your friend..."

"What are you talking about Pansy?" Dudley grabbed Pansy's shoulders and looked into her eyes seriously, "You are definitely my irreplaceable friend. Do you still remember how you awakened my consciousness in the Forbidden Forest? Something?"

Pansy and Dudley's eyes met, and after a moment, she lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Hmm."

"At that time, my consciousness was almost suppressed by the power of black magic. In the end, it was your voice, your figure, and your body temperature that brought me back to my sanity." Dudley said sincerely, "If it wasn't true My friend, it’s impossible to do that.”

Dudley's words seemed to have successfully comforted Pansy. The girl wiped her tears gently and smiled through tears when she raised her head again: "Thank you, Dudley...it was my fault. I shouldn't have doubted the relationship between us." Feelings."

Seeing that Pansy seemed to have regained her energy, Dudley breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to continue walking to the dormitory.

But then Dudley felt Pansy tug on his clothes.

"Dudley, you just said that when you were in the Forbidden Forest, it was my friendship that awakened you who was lost in the power of black magic." Pansy said softly behind Dudley: "But if, I mean if , if my and your roles were reversed at that time, would you also have rescued me?"

"Of course it is." Dudley immediately replied without hesitation, "You have helped me so much, you have rescued me from the dungeon and in the Forbidden Forest. If you are in trouble , I will definitely save you no matter what difficulties you encounter."

"Humph, I made an agreement with you not long ago, asking you not to put yourself in danger, but you forgot it so quickly." Pansy smiled mischievously, and seemed to have regained her energy. "However, even if you just make me happy, I am satisfied to hear you say that."

"Let's go back quickly, the banquet is almost over." Pansy walked in front of Dudley and said briskly: "If other students come back and see me like this, there may be some rumors - of course, I I just don’t care.”

Dudley and Pansy returned to the Slytherin common room, which was still empty because the opening party hadn't ended yet.

"Good night Dudley." Pansy said softly, "I'm sorry, tonight was supposed to be a happy day for you to meet Norberta again, but it's a pity that I ruined it."

"Don't be stupid, the most important thing is that you are not injured." Dudley responded, "I will ask Mr. Scamander later about the reason for Norberta's strange reaction. When the problem is solved, I will let him You and Norbert got to know each other well again."

After saying goodbye to Pansy, Dudley returned to his dormitory.It had been a long time coming here for Dudley. After all, he spent most of the last semester in the dungeon, and most of the other half of the time was spent in the school doctor's office.

Dudley looked at Malfoy's bed covered with luxurious silk and thought about Snape's request.Then he thought about Pansy and Fleur, who didn't get along well with each other, and felt vaguely that the interpersonal problems they would face this year might be more troublesome than the head-on battle with Voldemort last year.
