Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 449

c428 Extra chapter twenty years later part two

Although the previous promotion was smooth sailing, when it came to sequence three, Hermione chose to jump to the Perfector Path, which is adjacent to the Secret Explorer Path, and became a Mystery Scholar, also known as the Demon of Mysteries.

Her choice was partly influenced by her political ambitions.

Hermione has been trying to change the status quo of the wizarding world since the first grade, improve the status of Muggle-born wizards, and make “respect Muggle-born wizards” not just an empty slogan, a political correctness with no actual value, but into practical action.

After officially graduating from seventh grade, Hermione naturally entered the Ministry of Magic and became an employee of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

Based on her special background and strong practical ability, Hermione’s promotion path was a green light, and she soon became the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

And under the care of the current Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones, she has frequent access to documents that the Minister of Magic has access to.

Almost all employees of the Ministry of Magic believe that Hermione is a sure thing to become the next Minister of Magic.

This process seemed to be extremely smooth, but Hermione still vaguely felt the rejection of her by certain forces.

After all, Hermione is still a Muggle-born wizard. This cannot be concealed, and Hermione does not want to conceal it.

This led to many old antiques who couldn’t stand her and couldn’t kill her, so they could only implement a non-violent non-cooperation plan. They didn’t explicitly protest, but they didn’t cooperate with the work.

Harry once asked Hermione if she wanted to help solve these problems physically, but Hermione refused. She takes on these difficulties herself and turns them into a rite of passage for her promotion.

It was at this time that Hermione chose the jump path. After all, there are two titles for the Sequence 1 Enlightenment of the Perfection Path: “Civilization Enlightenment” and “Light of Darkness.”

The promotion rituals and performance methods are somewhat similar to the two paths in the rules field, but they are absolutely different at the core.

The promotion ceremony of a civilization enlightener is to bring a new civilization to a race and lead them into a new era; and the subsequent performance of the civilization enlightener is also related to the promoted civilization, requiring this civilization enlightener to guide the development of this civilization.

The stronger the civilization, the higher the potion digestibility of the civilized enlightener, and the more stable the foundation will be when promoting to the perfect person.

The path Hermione chose was to find ways to break the restrictions of the Secrecy Act and integrate the scientific civilization established by Muggles with the magical civilization established by wizards, thereby completing the ritual and being promoted to an initiate.

Hermione expected that, considering the size of magical civilization and scientific civilization, when the two officially began to merge, they would have already met the needs of their own rituals.

There is no doubt that Hermione succeeded in the end. Although there were many difficulties in the process, Hermione still completed the process of blending civilizations, successfully “enlightened” the scientific civilization of Muggles and the magical civilization of wizards, and was promoted to an initiate.

In order to promote the integration of wizards and Muggles, Hermione launched various reforms after serving as minister, suppressing those ancient wizard families that had remained neutral in the wizarding war and were not liquidated, but still persisted in the past, and promoted a group of determined people. Enterprising young wizard.

Subsequently, with the assistance of Harry, Hermione gave several speeches at the International Federation of Wizards Conferences.

The initial speech was not very effective. Most of the rotten old people still wanted to guard the magic world and refused to obediently explode gold coins. Only some young officials supported worldwide reforms.

During the discussion, several rounds of scuffles even broke out in the auditorium of the International Federation of Wizards. The initial exchange of words escalated to throwing shoes, cups, and boiling water at each other. In the end, I don’t know who was the first to throw a curse, triggering another incident. A small melee broke out.

Most officials are accustomed to this, after all, they usually do this once or twice in every meeting. Representatives who had never fought were embarrassed to call themselves representatives when they returned to the Ministry of Magic in their own countries.

Some of the followers and bodyguards even found a corner to sit down, eating desserts and waiting for their boss to decide the winner.

But this time, the chaos of the meeting ended quickly.

Harry’s true form came to the scene and easily suppressed the representatives and ministers of the Ministry of Magic of various countries present, making them willing to listen carefully to Hermione’s multi-faceted analysis of the need for exchanges and integration between the wizarding world and the Muggle world.

Professor Dumbledore was also pulled away from the journey by Harry and used his credibility to support Hermione.

With the endorsement of both the former number one in the magic world and the current number one in the magic world, coupled with its own strict logic, all descriptions of the future are consistent with reality, and the development blueprint depicted is very tempting.

Hermione finally relied on the charm of language and the power of the wand to get the Ministry of Magic of various countries to agree to carry out reforms in an orderly manner to promote the integration of the two civilizations of wizards and Muggles.

After the wizard is settled, the next step will be easy. Even Hermione, who has always been kind, now has a deep understanding of the principles of “the jungle of the jungle” and “the truth is only within the range of artillery.”

Hermione had no mental burden about Harry’s proposed use of force if verbal communication didn’t work.

Hermione first contacted the leaders of many important countries individually, and later demonstrated the power of wizards at an important and public international conference.

At first, the Muggles were shocked. How could such a group of beings who could control their own life and death appear above them? It’s just nonsense!

The mood of Muggles against wizards has become extremely high, so that the prime ministers of various countries who already know about the existence of wizards have to carefully consider their approval ratings next year and choose to say nothing.

A large country that already knew the detailed information of many wizards and had the support of an organization called “The Purifiers” even took the lead in proposing a plan to make the wizards surrender through war, obediently accept human experiments, and hand over magical weapons. Mystery, “benefit” all mankind.

And then…and then nothing more.

In order to help Hermione, Harry went directly to that country and performed a grand performance in front of countless satellite broadcasts.

She first stopped the bullets flying in the sky, and then pretended not to understand the power of the missile, and was torn into pieces by the missile.

While the Muggle military was celebrating killing the monster, Harley resurrected from the air in the most bizarre way, even her clothes were not dirty.

In the end, she even crushed a nuclear bomb with her own hands, tasted the radiation, and said it didn’t taste good.

After showing the Muggle world the power of wizards and a variety of weird resurrection abilities, Muggle executives consciously gave up on “plundering” magical resources through war and chose to coexist peacefully.

After all, people who are capable of this level are more aware of current affairs. Not everyone is like Fudge who naively believes that power governs power, rather than power supporting power.

Of course, after this “war”, which was actually more like a farce for adults to tease children, the Muggle world consciously lowered its status when communicating, and many Muggle people began to pursue wizards. .

Having a wizard in the family has become a symbol of progress, and the wizard child will be the pride of the whole family.

Moreover, the trend among the people has also changed again and again. Muggle people are looking forward to entering the magical world and getting a glimpse of wizards.

After less than three months of discussions and exchange of interests, and the sacrifice of multiple organizations such as the “Purchers”, the two sides initially reached an agreement, and Hogwarts became the vanguard of the integration of wizards and Muggles. , the first to open to the Muggle world.

Both sides will send students to each other to exchange and learn, all for the sake of a better world.

In order to be more shocking and to better enhance the image of wizards in the hearts of Muggles, Hermione carried out a major transformation of Hogwarts.

First up is Hogwarts Castle itself.

Hermione used the vast amount of occult knowledge she had mastered in the Secret-Prying Path, combined with the alchemy mastered by the four ancient alchemists in the Fleur Earth Path sequence and Harry’s magical support, to forcibly build Hogwarts into a floating castle. Empty city!

Hogwarts Castle, in the Headmaster’s office.

At this time, the principal’s office has been greatly changed. Except for the portraits of the old principals and the books donated to Hogwarts by Professor Dumbledore, other decorations have a completely new look.

The principal’s office was enlarged at least twice under the influence of the Traceless Stretching Charm, and in addition to the original door leading to the principal’s dormitory, there were two additional doors in the room.

The wooden doors were all ajar, and through the cracks in the door, one could vaguely see the potion materials stored in the room and the crucible that was still steaming with magic flames burning underneath.

There are several oil paintings placed on the walls on both sides, and the oil paintings are framed with gold.

There is also a full-length mirror standing in front of the wall near the back of the room. The back of the mirror is full of beautiful patterns.

But the old principals seemed to be extremely afraid of the gorgeous oil paintings and their own mirrors, and they never thought of getting closer.

Even the portrait that Principal Dumbledore left behind after his retirement that can be linked to his body is kept as far away from the oil painting as possible. Apparently some bad memories happened between the two.

Opposite the full-length mirror is an exhibition cabinet, which is all gold and red, with a bird’s nest on it.

The cabinet is full of various medals, trophies, gowns, scepters, certificates of honor and other items that symbolize honor.

Just standing in front of the cabinet, any knowledgeable visitor will immediately be in awe of the owner of the cabinet.

In the innermost part of the office, the familiar long wooden table is still in place, and is paired with the familiar log lounge chair.

But the person sitting on the chair is no longer the familiar old man. At this time, Professor Dumbledore and Grindelwald, after taking away two extraordinary items with less negative effects from Harley, embarked on a journey around the world again.

Now the owner of this principal’s office is Harley.

She is the current Headmaster of Hogwarts and Honorary Professor of Transfiguration and Potions. When necessary, Harley can even make a guest appearance as a professor in any class, and this kind of guest appearance is not difficult for her.

Harley was holding a cup of tea and looking at the many letters in front of her.

Those letters were nothing more than invitations from the Ministry of Magic of various countries and official organizations in the field of magic to invite Harry to visit and give speeches, or from some old-timers to consult for some academic opinions.

In the twenty years since Harley was successfully promoted to the original witch, she has not been idle.

In addition to helping Hermione and Fleur find materials, Harley is looking for opportunities to promote the Scourge of Destruction and the Root of Scourge while expanding her influence.

It’s clear that Harley is doing a great job.

She currently holds numerous positions, including but not limited to Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot, Honorary Senior Advisor to the Ministry of Magic, Chief Wizard of the International Transfiguration Union, Senior President of the Apothecaries Association, and many other identities.

Even the International Wizards and Quidditch Association relied on Harley’s superb Quidditch skills and kept praying for support, and finally managed to get Harley an honorary senior adviser of the Quidditch Association.

But among these many identities and honors, the one that Harry values ​​most is still the position of principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

If nothing happens, she will always stay here. The resurrection and reorganization point is also set up in this office.

Even the entrance to the newly established Old Kingdom, the City of Disaster that was just accommodated a year ago, was set up in Hogwarts Castle by Harry.

After all, this is the core area of ​​Harley’s training anchor, and it is also the place that holds Harley’s most important memories.

The hundreds of years she spent as a defector from the Witch Cult brought almost no joy to Harley, only endless escapes and bloody pursuits.

Only her time at Hogwarts was happy for Harry. The Quidditch Cup she won with her seniors, the House Cup she won for the house, and the days of attending classes with so many friends…

Cognition from other people can become an anchor, helping Harley’s consciousness to be stable enough not to be replaced by the original.

But this ordinary anchor point cannot interfere with human nature in any way. If this only came from the anchor of faith, Harley would soon become as cold and ruthless as she was initially under the influence of her extraordinary characteristics.

It is these bits and pieces of memories from Hogwarts that together form an important pillar to maintain Harley’s humanity.

It is precisely because of this that Harley often stays in the office. Even if she has to go out, she has to leave a clone to guard here.

After reading many letters, Harley gently snapped her fingers and then picked up a cup of hot tea.

For some academic discussion letters and letters from several other magic schools about the next competition, spider silk automatically hung from the ceiling, and quills were rolled up to reply.

As for the invitations sent from various wizarding and Muggle organizations, they were basically swallowed up by a ball of black flames.
