No other college dared to refute this point.
Even graduating students couldn't say they could knock a dragon away with one punch.
In fact, even professors wouldn't dare say that.
This made Slytherin extremely proud.
The loudest noises came from their dining table.
Compared to the solemnity of past grave visits, this time they're shouting even louder than Gryffindor.
Dumbledore smiled broadly as he watched Darren surrounded by the Slytherin students.
"Oh, children, it's time for you to eat. And of course, you should go to bed early. I think the warriors are tired too."
His words did have some effect.
Darren did indeed have a good meal.
But when he returned to the Slytherin common room, they surrounded him.
Darren expected to be criticized, but nobody cared about his reckless behavior on the field.
They insisted on dragging Darren along for a drink to celebrate.
Darren was also asked to bring out the golden egg he received today so everyone could analyze the situation.
Even Malfoy looked helpless after seeing Darren's surprised expression.
“You’ve been reckless for a long time. We’re already very fortunate that you were only poisoned this time.”

Chapter 448 Hagrid Wants to Be Interviewed!!
After the first event of the Triwizard Tournament, December arrived quickly.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and strong winds and sleet are common occurrences.
Darren began to wrap himself up tightly again.
At this time, every time he passed Durmstrang's large ship, he couldn't help but show an expression of admiration.
Because there was already some frost on the lake surface at this time.
Durmstrang insisted on living on the boat.
It's said that several of their students have already caught a cold. Darren was extremely impressed by their perseverance in this weather.
As for Beauxbatons, they're much better off.
After all, Hagrid had tried everything to keep them warm and to get Mrs. Maxime to look at him more. (To no avail.)
Furthermore, Madam Maxim allowed her students to live at Hogwarts.
However, Mrs. Maxim specifically warned them that the girls were not allowed to live in the boys' dormitory, which made Fleur extremely angry.
In the end, she simply started living in the carriage.
Of course, Hagrid helped Beauxbatton in addition to other things.
What he's been doing lately is raising blasting snails with Darren and the others.
The fritters are getting bigger and bigger.
They occasionally made crackling and popping sounds.
They won't kill you when they explode; they'll just blow up people nearby, making their eyes smoke or injuring them.
But Hagrid wasn't satisfied. He wanted the students to observe whether the blasting snail needed to hibernate.
He directed the students to put the fried snails into the insulated box and put the lid on them.
However, this action angered the frizzy-tailed snail.
They don't like hibernation at all.
They burst out of the incubator and ran amok in Hagrid's pumpkin patch.
Hagrid yelled at the students to catch the bomb-tailed snails, but almost every student was injured by the explosion.
Malfoy was so angry he cried.
He said he would definitely tell his father.
But Hagrid threatened him that if he continued, he would have Moody turn Malfoy into a weasel.
Malfoy's face turned red with anger.
But he couldn't refute it.
Because his father told him not to mess with Moody.
Even if Moody's retires, he's still not someone they can afford to mess with.
To avoid being caught in the crossfire, Darren stood next to Hagrid, pretending to be kinder than him, seemingly trying to persuade Hagrid to give the Blast-tailed Snails their freedom.
This suggestion made many students very happy.
If Hagrid really releases these Bombtail snails, then they won't have to take Hagrid's Bombtail snails for walks anymore.
But Hagrid was reluctant to agree.
He insisted that Harry and his friends catch the Bombtail.
Darren caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that the Blasttail had cornered Harry and the others against the wall.
He had intended to raise his wand and teach those blast-tailed snails a lesson.
And incidentally, I gained some "Holy Father" points.
But Hagrid noticed his movements.
"No, Darren, don't do it! Don't scare them! Let me handle this!"
Hagrid used them.
But Darren thought that he was probably worried that Darren would hurt his Blast-tailed Shells, since Hagrid rushed towards them as soon as he arrived.
He threw himself in front of the slugs and then used a rope to tie all the thorns on their backs.
This way they won't kill each other.
"Fun, really fun!"
It's Rita Skeeter.
She appeared in the class on protecting magical creatures.
She walked up to Hagrid and said, "You're the professor of the Magical Creatures class, right? Are these your animals?"
"Rita Skeeter? Dumbledore said you're not allowed in here anymore!"
Hagrid said, frowning.
"Don't worry about those things. I just want to do an exclusive interview with you. You know, the Daily Prophet has a column on protecting magical creatures."
Would you be willing to be interviewed?
She asked excitedly. Hagrid suddenly became shy.
It looks like they want to agree.
Harry quickly went to Hagrid and looked at Rita Skeeter, saying, "No, Hagrid won't give you an interview!"
"Harry Potter?"
Rita Skeeter seemed extremely surprised.
Then she gave a mischievous grin and said, "You're jealous, aren't you? You're jealous that your professor got interviewed?"
“My brother didn’t! He just hates people who twist the facts, Miss Rita Skeeter. I want you to leave immediately!”

[bite……]
"Uh, what are you doing here?"
Rita Skeeter felt extremely unlucky.
She hesitated for a moment, then walked away without looking back.
Harry and Ron laughed.
"She must be terrified by your fist. She's probably afraid you'll punch her and she'll be dead."
Ron laughed loudly.
Darren looked embarrassed.
"I won't, I was just trying to scare her."
