Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue - Chapter 1306
, the fastest update of Hogwarts on the tip of your tongue! Chapter 1306 A Magical Speech Across the Century (Part 2)
At Hogwarts, Lockhart’s voice echoed over the Quidditch field.
“A thousand years ago, four great wizards founded the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry here.”
“Since then, magic education has appeared in this world, and magic knowledge has been passed down stably and reliably.”
“In those wild and ignorant times, Hogwarts was like a beacon in the dark, illuminating the way to magic.”
“The birth of the modern magic school is like the dawn of joy, ending the long dark night that bound the freedom of magic. From then on, everyone can learn magic freely and without any secular constraints. Even if the magic civilization has experienced several dangerous wars, as long as Hogwarts is still standing, and the future of magical freedom is still there.”
Gilderoy Lockhart looked around at the young, calm, or old faces around him, and his voice rose little by little.
More than a year of teaching grammar lessons and the experience of black wizards have greatly enhanced his appeal and skills.
He paused for half a second, took a deep breath, stroked the hard edge of the interrogation table with his right hand, and raised the volume sharply.
“but–”
“A thousand years have passed, and magic is still not completely free!”
“A thousand years have passed, and magic still lingers under the invisibility of Muggle towns and secrecy laws;”
“A thousand years have passed, and the wizard still lives on a poor island in a sea of abundance;”
“A thousand years later, wizards are still shrinking in the corners of human society and realize that they are aliens from human civilization.”
“I am here today on trial to make this appalling and critical reality public.”
Gilderoy Lockhart hammered the table heavily, pointing his right hand to Cornelius Fudge and others ahead.
“Our government, the government of magic, the International Federation of Wizards promises to give us order!”
“Yes, they did – by constantly dividing our fellow men.”
“Mixed-blood, hemp-breed, mixed-breed, pure-blood wizard, mad wolf patient, septicemia patient, radiation sickness patient…”
“People who work hard and yearn for a better life are thrown into prison, while liars who are full of lies and steal other people’s interests live in high positions and enjoy the delicacy of power.”
“The magical government has not fulfilled the sacred obligations entrusted to them by the wizards and the four founders of Hogwarts. They have only written a blank cheque to all the aspirants of magic. Poke and back. A thousand years have passed, and magic can’t even walk in the sun!”
crazy, crazy-
Cornelius Fudge took a step back and murmured.
His eyes widened, and he finally understood what Lockhart wanted to do.
“Quick, catch that guy! Don’t let him go on, catch him!”
“Nonsense! You are accusing the International Federation of Wizards?!”
At the same time, the officials of the International Federation of Wizards were furious and stood up one after another.
The Aurors and the wizards of the Federation drew their wands and cast spells in the direction of Lockhart.
However, no spell could successfully get close to Lockhart’s two meters away – the amber barrier appeared again.
That layer of amber, like a soap bubble, absorbed all the magic attacks silently, without even a single ripple.
…………
“Professor McGonagall, I hope the school lifts this layer of protection immediately!”
In the box on the upper floor of the Quidditch field, an official from the International Wizarding Federation said angrily.
As soon as Lockhart mentioned the secrecy law, he immediately realized the other party’s sinister intentions.
Any public confession, any back-to-school confession are all fake!
This guy Lockhart, he obviously wants to emulate Grindelwald half a century ago, and bewitch people in public.
“Feel sorry–”
Professor McGonagall looked at the angry middle-aged official and shrugged helplessly.
“Amber magic was left by Dumbledore before he disappeared, and we still have a lot of doubts about this mysterious magic.”
“As I first introduced, once the amber is activated, the inner and outer space will be completely isolated until the magic disappears.”
She looked at Lockhart below with an intriguing look in her eyes.
Dumbledore should have established another mysterious wizarding association, and she can roughly detect some clues.
Professor Apocalypse, Nicole LeMay, Scamander… These big figures who have appeared at Hogwarts during this period are most likely to be members of the mysterious wizarding organization – in fact, this is not what Secretly, Dumbledore had established such a small group as early as when he fought against Grindelwald more than half a century ago.
The only difference is that this time, the “little group” also includes many incredibly young faces.
Like Elena Kaslana, or…?
Gilderoy Lockhart, the youngest “Demon King” wizard born in this century?
Professor McGonagall recalled the description he had seen in the newspaper not long ago, and glanced at the frightened official next to him.
If nothing else, Lockhart’s trial should be an important successor to Dumbledore’s “evaporation”~www.mtlnovel.com~ Professor McGonagall frowned, staring closely at the young wizard below.
To her, Lockhart seemed like a younger, improved version of Gellert Grindelwald.
However, with the wisdom of Dumbledore, it is impossible not to understand that this is no longer the chaotic era of that time.
The world wars of those days failed to bring wizards to the stage of the non-magical world, and now it is even more impossible to do so in this peaceful time.
Neither the International Confederation of Wizards nor the various Muggle governments would like this to happen:
The stronger Lockhart’s speech became, the more he became a thorn in the eyes of all forces.
Had it not been for the British wizarding world to abolish the death penalty, she even suspected that the Wizengamore Wizarding Court planned to execute Lockhart on the spot.
Of course, the premise is that these wizards present can catch the “Demon King” Lockhart.
McGonagall’s pen pals in Armenia’s magical world told her that on the night when the Ministry of Magic was breached, Lockhart held off alone — or more accurately, subdued hundreds of werewolves by himself. Knowing that she could not do it herself, the subsequent rumors and attitudes of the Ministry of Magic further confirmed this.
Professor McGonagall never imagined that the frivolous and talkative Ravenclaw boy of those days would have grown to such a degree in the blink of an eye.
Gilderoy Lockhart, the boy who was locked up because he carved his name on the Quidditch pitch, has become a top wizard that even she looks up to.
And what made it all happen in silence…
The mysterious pusher hidden from everyone’s sight.
Professor McGonagall turned his head and looked worriedly at the tallest tower of the castle in the distance.
“Where are you at this time, what do you want to do…”
“…Professor Dumbledore?”
