Harry Potter's Bastard

"There was a vicious fight that night, which we saw at the mouth of the cave, in the valley below. After a few hours of fighting, the sound is too loud to believe. When the sun came out, the snow was all red, and his head sank to the bottom of the lake. "

"Whose head?" asked Hermione.

"Kakus's. Hagrid said heavily, "It's a new gugo, called the High Pony." He let out a long sigh. "Unexpectedly, we changed people after only two days of making friends with Guge. We feel that tall horses may not be easy to talk to, but we can only try. "

"You're going to talk to him?" Ron asked incredulously, "after seeing him cut off the heads of other giants?"

"Of course we went. Hagrid said, "How can you give up in two days after such a long journey?" "

"I knew I couldn't do it before I even opened my mouth. He sat there, wearing Kakus's helmet, squinting at us as we approached. He was very burly, one of the tallest in the city, with black hair, big black teeth, and wore bone necklaces, some of which looked like human bones. I strove a little—and lifted up a large roll of dragon skin, and said, 'A gift to the giant Gugo—'and before I could finish speaking, I was hung headfirst down. Two of his men grabbed me. "

Hermione covered her mouth with her hand.

"How did you get out?" Harry asked, and since Hagrid was able to sit here and talk to them about these things—maybe not "well", but Harry's hands were still sweating nervously.

"It's Olim and Sirius—" Hagrid said, "and Olim cast one of the fastest eye spells I've ever seen in my life, and Sirius wounded another giant's arm. "

All three Harry held their breath.

"But it's a problem, because we used magic on the giants, and that's why the giants hate wizards. We had to flee, knowing we couldn't go into the camp again. "

"You've only been there for three days, why did you come back so late?" asked Hermione.

"We didn't just stay for three days and leave!" Hagrid seemed insulted, "Dumbledore is counting on us!"

"But you said you couldn't go back!"

"Not during the day, we just need to reconsider. I lay down in the cave and observed it for a few days. The situation is not good. "

"He's chopping off someone's head again?" Hermione was a little disgusted.

"No," said Hagrid, "that's better." "

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, we quickly discovered that he didn't exclude all wizards—only us. "

"Death Eaters?" Harry asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes," said Hagrid, gloomily, "two came to him every day with gifts, and he did not hang them. "

"How do you know it's a Death Eater?" Ron asked.

"Because Sirius and I know them," Hagrid said in a rough voice, "McNeil, he's a madman, and loves to kill like a tall horse, no wonder they're so speculative." "

"The Death Eaters convinced the giants to unite with the Mysteries?" Hermione said in despair.

"Don't worry, I'm not done yet!" exclaimed Hagrid, who at first refused to say anything, but now it seems that he was addicted, "and we discussed it, and although the tall horses are biased towards the mysterious people, it doesn't mean that the giants are like this, and we need to think about convincing the other giants, those who don't want to be high and like Gogo." "

"How can you tell which ones are?" asked Ron.

"They're beaten badly, aren't they?" Hagrid patiently explained, "and anyone with a bit of a brain will hide from the tall horses and hide in the surrounding caves like we do." So we decided to walk around the caves at night and see if we could convince a few people. "

"You're going to the dark cavern to find the giants?" exclaimed Ron.

"Giants aren't our worst fear," Hagrid said, "we're more afraid of the Death Eaters." Dumbledore had told him not to get into trouble with them. The problem is that the gang knew we were there - probably Gao Gao Ma said it. At night we tried to sneak into the cave while the giant slept, but McNeil's men were looking for us in the mountains. It's hard for me to stop Orim and Sirius at the same time. "

Hagrid's mouth tugged at his beard.

She was bent on teaching them a lesson, and she was so angry that Orim was like a fire, probably because of her French roots. Hagrid looked at Harry, "Your godfather isn't bad, he's always wanted to get rid of those Death Eaters there, but unfortunately we didn't get a good chance. "

"At one point, we convinced six or seven giants—"

"Once?" Hermione asked, "What does that mean?"

Hagrid looked at Hermione sadly, "The tall horses attacked the cave, and those who survived never wanted to deal with us again. "

That's the difference between different methods, and the killing of Kakus by the tall pony was indeed an accident and a blow to their plans, but it wasn't the cause of Hagrid's failure.

The reason why they failed was not because of the Death Eater factor, but because they did it wrong from the beginning.

Giants are creatures with poor brains, and even if they form an alliance with you today, it's normal for them to turn their faces and deny people the next day. The best way to make a guy like the Giant, who only knows his fists, obedient, is to subdue them and make them afraid.

That's what Voldemort did last time, the giants don't care if you're a dark wizard or a white wizard, they only recognize power, Voldemort and Dumbledore undoubtedly have the power to easily slaughter giants, but Voldemort showed this power, and Dumbledore didn't, so last time the giants were on Voldemort's side.

And what do giants crave? Is it the beautiful "Eternal Flame" that Dumbledore gave me? Is it the helmet of the elves? No, the giants crave fighting, they want to kill, and the wizards only know that the giants' desire engraved in their souls will drive them together, and the wizards want the giants to kill each other—and the rest of the giants do just that.

Voldemort could give the giants what they wanted - fight and kill, which Dumbledore couldn't. That's where it really matters. Even if there are no tall horses, even if there are no Death Eaters, even if Hagrid and the others negotiate with Kakus this time, as long as Hagrid and them turn their heads, the Death Eaters will be able to hook up with Kakus again. Giants are not a race of faith, as soon as Voldemort shows his strength and tells the giants that they can participate in war, they can kill their enemies at will, and the giants will immediately switch to Voldemort's command.

The Giants and the Order of the Phoenix, headed by Dumbledore, are not on the same channel at all. In layman's terms, it is a disagreement, the goals of the Order of the Phoenix and the goals of the giants are not consistent, but Voldemort's goals have some overlap with what the giants desire, which is somewhat similar to the Dementors, the giants and the Dementors can be said to be Voldemort's natural allies, as long as they send someone to persuade a little, these creatures with chaos and killing in their minds will consciously join Voldemort's command.

Dumbledore was actually doing useless work - he must have known it himself, and sending Hagrid and them to convince the giants was more like doing his best.
