Chapter 73 72. Brainwashing
Of course, the courses for Mudbloods are not only the spellcasting course.
After finishing the morning course, the students returned to their dormitories. When they were not in class or working, they did not have much entertainment activities. They basically stayed in their own small space.
After lunch, they had another class today. The class was still held in the same classroom as the spellcasting class. This class was a history of magic class.
The professor in the class was not the ghost professor "Bins". It was strange that Jon had not seen a ghost since he came to the castle last night. He didn't know whether it was because of his bad luck or because of something else.
The wizard who taught them the history of magic was a wizard of medium build named "Evan Rosier". Rosier's surname belonged to one of the oldest 28 pure-blood families. This wizard was obviously an old-school pure-blood.
Compared with Professor Sinistra in the morning, this Professor Rosier was much more vicious.
After he entered the classroom, he never showed a good expression on his face. He glanced at the students below and coughed lightly.
"Well, I have to come here to face you again. To be honest, I have submitted my resignation application five or six times, but the principal has never been willing to approve it. He seems to think that I can teach you well. I am not questioning the decision of that gentleman, but the gap between mudbloods and normal wizards is objective. I don’t think that education alone can make you so good. The ones who should really teach you should be those elves who teach you."
He complained and talked nonsense for a long time in front of the students before he started his teaching.
There is nothing much to say about the history of magic used to teach mudbloods. The historical deeds he told were all about how ancient pure-blood wizards fought for the interests of wizards, what kind of spells pure-blood wizards invented, improved wands, promoted the development of magic, etc.
There are also mudbloods in these contents, but their role is to act as slaves in the history told by Rosier. Only those mudbloods who serve pure-blood wizards with all their heart will leave a little name in the history of magic, and those who attempt to resist the rule of pure-bloods will be nailed to the pillar of shame even after death.
It is not strange to instill wrong values into people today by distorting past history. It can be said that many leaders who carry out class rule have been doing this.
In the end, even the real history will be hidden and completely buried, and only those fabricated stories will become the "history" known to future generations.
Now Voldemort's rule over the magic world is still relatively short, and there is still a long way to go before he can turn the fake into the real.
Just like in this magic history class, it seems that every student is listening attentively, but in fact, few people have listened to the "history" told by Rosier.
These second-year students seem to have learned about some real past from some channels, and they are not very concerned about the magic history class.
The afternoon classes ended hastily because the students didn't want to talk and the students didn't want to listen.
And the courses that mudbloods need to learn are only three in total.
After finishing the spellcasting class and the history of magic class on the first day of arriving at Hogwarts Castle, Jon also saw a course specially set up by Voldemort for mudblood students on the second day - "Thought Class".
As the name suggests, this course is to teach mudbloods what kind of attitude and ideas they should have in the magic world.
It seems to have some overlap with the functions of the history of magic class, but in fact it has completely different effects.
The history of magic class is to teach these students the distorted history, while the thought class is to tell them what they should do in the future as a mudblood.
A spellcasting class is to relieve the accumulated magic in their bodies to prevent them from becoming obscurus. The other two courses used to subtly change their minds are the focus of Voldemort's bloodline rule.
Even though these children from the Muggle society did not accept the theory of being born lowly at first, they had to stay in this castle for seven years.
During these seven years, the words that purebloods were born noble and mudbloods were born lowly rang in their ears all day long. They had to work for pureblood and half-blood students on weekdays, and only those who performed well would get some rewards.
Such subtle influence can really change a person's mind. The mudbloods who got sandwiches on the first night of school are good examples. They have basically become what Voldemort wants all mudbloods to become in the future.
They obey the words of every pureblood wizard, recognize their humbleness from the bottom of their hearts, and firmly maintain the class rule of purebloods.
At that time, the mudbloods will be completely distinguished from pureblood and half-blood wizards, defined as two ethnic groups, and become a group of perfect slaves.
Voldemort, who successfully controlled the Hogwarts Castle, is educating the mudblood students here in this way.
The students here have no chance to resist at all. Faced with the absolute difference in strength, they can only passively accept the transformation.
In just two days after arriving at this castle, Jon clearly realized that the so-called "taming field" is not an exaggeration at all.
In the first few days of school, Jon did not act rashly.
He was not an impatient person. Before completing the task assigned by Dumbledore and looking for the stone on the ring, he had to make sure that he could stay in the castle safely.
This included getting familiar with the interpersonal relationships of the boy named "Smith" he was currently playing, as well as the skills of hand gesture casting.
He had to ensure that he was ordinary before he could continue the next step of the exploration.
And just one week after Jon came to the castle, it was time for Dumbledore to give him the time to replenish the materials for the Polyjuice Potion.
There was no contact person. Jon only had a specific location outside the castle near the Forbidden Forest. He needed to find an opportunity to reach that place by himself.
And on the weekend of the first week of school, there was an opportunity for him to leave the castle.
Dolohov summoned all the mudblood students to prepare for a major cleanup of the Quidditch field that had been out of use for two months, in advance to prepare for the Quidditch games that would be held by the pure-blood and half-blood colleges.
