Chapter 918 ? Candy Paper
When eating breakfast the next day, the number of owls who came to deliver letters was far more than usual. What happened in the ancient magic class yesterday, whether it was a pure-blood or a half-blood family wizard, would make Alan and Dumbledore feel the same in the ancient magic class. News of the dispute got out.
Although it caused some controversy for Allen to let students learn the magic of summoning undead creatures, everyone paid more attention to the irreconcilable contradictions shown in the dispute between Allen and Dumbledore.
The British wizards began to worry about the situation instead of being blindly optimistic like before, especially when the news reported that the Death Eaters had attacked two Muggle villages again and had not been captured.
Death Eaters attacking Muggle villages has been on the headlines of various newspapers recently, and the dispute between Allen and Dumbledore has also been purposely exposed by some pure-blood families in the media they control.
The recent media has been very lively. After eating breakfast, Allen sat in a chair and read various newspapers and periodicals sent by owls. "We seriously condemn the irresponsible behavior of Professor Alan Harris, teaching the dangerous magic of summoning undead creatures to young people whose minds are not yet fully mature, luring and encouraging them to delve into black magic... This is very immoral Dangerous act..."
"The Hogwarts board of directors should consider stopping such dangerous courses as ancient magic, which tend to distort students' personalities... The board of directors should play a supervisory role and clear out unqualified professors from the teaching staff... Otherwise, Hogwarts may be destroyed. The reputation in the world has become even more notorious than Durmstrang's - at least the old boss of the Harris family, Getler Grindelwald, will be fired by Durmstrang for his radical research on black magic .”
Allen flipped through the masthead of the publication, saw the surname of the publisher in charge, and knew in his heart that these were pure-blood families who did not give up, and were using the news media in their hands to create momentum.
According to the intelligence of the Harris family, these pure-blood families have tried to persuade Dumbledore to deal with Harris. After the public conflict, the pure-blood family began to secretly contact and jointly act, and launched their own media to condemn Allen and criticize him. Teaching students at Hogwarts such dangerous magic as summoning dark creatures and the inaction of the Ministry of Magic tried to pave the way for them to later want to formally expel themselves from the school.
Allen threw these magazines aside, and opened the "Daily Prophet", "Quicker" and other publications. They all learned from Allen's previous remarks, the original intention of Hogwarts, and the contents of the school history records. And the Ministry of Magic offers to refute those media views on the declining level of enchantment of graduates since Dumbledore became Headmaster.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the magic world suddenly became tense because of these media wars, and under the threat of Death Eaters outside, the Ministry of Magic controlled by Harris clashed with the pure-blood families. The two saviors also had internal strife. These incidents caused turmoil in the magic world and made ordinary wizards worry about their own safety.
Allen casually flipped through a few newspapers, stood up and left the auditorium. Draco Malfoy, who had also seen the news, couldn't help ignoring Allen's reminder and followed, but as soon as Draco walked In the hall, Allen was stopped by Bryce Zabini of Slytherin.
At this time, under his frowned brows, his narrow, slightly slanted brown eyes narrowed slightly guiltily.
"Professor Harris, allow me to take a few minutes of your precious time?" Zabini whispered.
"Zabini, it's okay, you might as well tell me straight." Allen led Zabini to an empty classroom on the second floor.
"professor,
Sorry, I had to withdraw from Harris Intensive and Ancient Magic. "Zabini is usually very conceited, but at this time his high head bowed down and apologized to Allen.
"It's okay Zabini, I know your difficulties..." Allen patted Zabini on the shoulder. As a wizard from a pure-blood family, Zabini's position must now be consistent with his own family - at least he The mother's new object now stands on the opposite side of Harris.
"Bryce! How can you leave at this time?!" Draco flashed out from behind and stopped Zabini.
"Draco, don't blame him. When you are willing to return to the training class, you are welcome at any time. Your place will be reserved for you." Allen waved Zabini to let him go, and then Another trick to Draco, "Draco, come to me."
"Thank you, Professor." Zabini, who had always been somewhat arrogant, bowed apologetically to Allen, then turned and left.
Draco snorted coldly at Zabini, and reluctantly put down his hand. Zabini rubbed his forehead, without explaining to himself, he pushed away Draco who was still in front of him and quickly walked away. Allen walked quickly.
"Alan, I remember you told me not to get close to you, but those idiots who just came to the ancient magic class quit, but are you not in a hurry for the intensive training class? They want to drive you out of school!" De Afraid that Alan would divert the topic again, Laco quickly expressed his worries.
"Draco, don't blame him. Zabini's situation is actually very difficult. Recently, many wizards from pure-blood families have withdrawn from the intensive training class. Although Zabini has withdrawn from the intensive training class, he is not willing to fight against me. I understand his situation very well. After all, as a member of a pure-blood family, he can never be a betrayer of the family, a pure-blood betrayer." Allen calmly explained to the aggrieved Draco, " And many people who quit are similar to him in terms of choice, and in this case, they are already under a lot of pressure if they don't help them."
In the Gryffindor common room, Flegal put down his wand and stopped practicing summoning dark creatures.
Neville, who had been on tenterhooks, heaved a sigh of relief: "Fleger, I don't think it's a good idea for a skeleton to appear in the common room once you successfully summon...you will be punished."
Flaig flicked his wand, "Don't worry about Neville, I'm just practicing my swing."
"My grandma doesn't allow me to go to the ancient magic class anymore. I haven't been to the practice site once, and I practiced it secretly." Neville clasped his hands together, "Principal Dumbledore originally forbade you to be in school." Practice, until Professor Harris opened the practice area of the ancient magic class all day long, allowing you to practice... While you were practicing, he came to stop him personally... I am really worried that this situation will continue to worsen... My grandma wrote to let I stand by Dumbledore and say there will be a result soon..."
"Alan put the three-eyed crow made of shadows on the field of the practice class around the clock..." Fleger shrugged, "They don't know Alan, he is not a person who is easy to get angry, and I was in the Muggle school When he was in class, he rarely couldn't do what he wanted to do, and there must be a reason for Allen to be so tough now, don't forget the Ministry of Magic."
"Fleger, they must know what Professor Harris didn't use, but now even Dumbledore is forced to join them... My grandma said that the purpose of other pure blood is not just to drive him out of school, Their target is the Ministry of Magic, that's why she insisted that I support Dumbledore instead of other purebloods... She was worried that things would get out of hand, in fact, before the Ravenclaw Temple, my grandma liked the Harris family... Neville fell into doubt and worry, "Flaige, is this something we can handle? I just hope things don't get worse and good people don't get hurt."
"I support Alan!" Flaig loudly declared his attitude towards his friends in Muggle school, "He is right in trying to improve our strength!"
Neville was taken aback by his friend's sudden loud declaration, and then asked: "Fleger, I remember that you have always been against black magic? And you were also very against black magic when you taught necromancy that day."
"I just figured it out in the past few days, Neville." Fleger said with a serious face, "Death Eaters are attacking Muggles every day, and I started to complain about why the Ministry of Magic failed to protect everyone, but I Think clearly, Neville, Auror, Order of the Phoenix, and Dumbledore cannot protect everyone anytime and anywhere. This is unrealistic, and the police in our Muggle world are no better than them. Allen said That's right, we'll have to get some of the necessary power ourselves... So I figured if I could manage to get some undead creatures to serve as bodyguards, I could quietly bring them home and order them to guard my family."
Neville didn't make a sound but nodded secretly. He put his hand in his pocket, where there was a stack of candy wrappers given to him by his mother - Neville's parents were both Aurors and members of the Order of the Phoenix. They were unfortunately kidnapped by Death Eaters shortly after Voldemort's downfall, and tortured into madness by Bellatrix Lestrange with the Cruciatus Curse. Has lost her normal sanity and can't recognize Neville as her child, but there is some kind of deeper connection, so that she will give him candy wrappers as gifts when Neville comes to visit.
Neville has pasted the candy wrappers from his mother all over the room, and now when he and his grandma went to the hospital to visit their parents, his grandma let him throw them away. His mother has already pasted up the candy wrappers all over the room, but Neville will always say Agreed, and finally at the corner quietly put the candy wrapper into his pocket and took it away.
