Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 146

c145 Suffering is never worth pursuing

The little mute is not a fool. If he suddenly picked up a bag of delicious food, the little guy can understand it.

But if he can find it every day, it is just fooling fools.

Since Grete recovered his health, the little guy can get normal food every day.

Sometimes it is roast chicken, sometimes it is steak, and sometimes it is just soft white bread.

Even if Grete has torn these foods into pieces.

But this will not affect their consumption at all.

There are so many homeless people in the whole city, how could it be that only he can find them every day.

Even regardless of time, whether it is the sun or the dead of night, every time he goes out, he can get something.

And other homeless people who would stare at him from time to time in the past, the little guy has not seen them once during this period.

He can’t remember how long he has been wandering. How to survive in this society humbly and strongly, he has long figured out the rules.

And he has studied a way that suits him.

What’s even more strange is that when he went out, no matter how much he tried to cover up, as long as he met a living person, they would be more or less curious about his high bulging hat.

But now there is no such thing, even those copper hats who walk the streets all day long, looking for money bags, ignore him.

Gret watched the little guy try several times and commit himself to the magic particles, and almost laughed out loud.

In the past few days, in order to prevent him from being unable to estimate the little guy when he went to do things, causing some danger.

After Gret regained control of the magic particles, every night after the little guy fell asleep, he would use magic particles to solidify the spell around his body.

In addition to the necessary utopia, a Muggle confusion spell was also solidified.

This can help him avoid many dangers.

When the little guy discovered this situation, he stopped for a long time, and suddenly seemed to be crazy, running wildly in one direction.

Not far away was the back kitchen of the restaurant that the little guy often visited, where Gret prepared food for him today.

Now this happened suddenly, and Grete didn’t know what happened for a moment.

He had to hurry to catch up.

At first, Grete thought he had found out that he had recovered and wanted to escape.

Later, he found out that the little guy was running for a purpose.

His goal was a church in the center of the city.

When Grete found out the little guy’s goal, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

He really couldn’t understand why a little guy from the magical world would be so fanatical about the religion of the Muggle world.

Yes, Grete was cruising around the little guy, and the expression on his face was indescribable fanaticism.

When he stepped into the church, the fanaticism turned into piety.

The pastor of the church was preaching to the believers.

The believers were all ragged, skinny and poor people at the bottom of the society, but their eyes became particularly bright as the pastor preached.

“The God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little, will perfect, establish, and strengthen you.”

When the preaching pastor said these words, his eyes were gentle, sliding from the first row to the last row of believers.

He was like a ray of light in a miserable life. He didn’t think that the people who came to listen to the sermon smelled bad, nor did he think that there was anything wrong with them making the church dirty.

Grete just glanced around and focused his attention on the little guy.

He was very curious about why the little guy came here.

In his ears was the pastor’s “bewitching”, he was advocating that people are born to suffer, and the suffering now will be compensated by God after the perfection.

Grete sneered at this. No matter in the past life or this life, he didn’t have any good feelings for those who advocated and praised suffering.

If it was said that suffering was what people were born to experience, those noble lords in the upper city would not be so full of themselves.

Just because the taste is not so good, the whole plate of steaks was dumped into the swill bucket.

Look, the poor people who are listening to his sermons in the church now have to fight for their lives to get a piece of black bread.

Until now, their hungry stomachs are still rumbling.

This magnificent church now, the golden ceiling, the ceiling painting, any small piece, all the poor people here can’t afford it even if they sell all of them.

Even so, they are still advocating suffering.

Look around, are there any nobles who come here to listen?

Just kidding, advocating suffering is to fool these poor people, otherwise when they wake up, they, the upper class who have no worries about food and clothing, will be unlucky.

We have to give them hope, a hope that after suffering enough, they can pin their happiness on the future.

This can also be regarded as a goal for the difficult life, so that they don’t have to eat before they set their sights on their pockets.

It’s not like Grete hasn’t seen a real ascetic, but it’s clear that the fat priest on the stage with a ruddy face and a wide body is not one of them.

A real ascetic is like the old priest that Grete saw when he was a child, who did his best to provide more supplies to St. Mary’s Welfare House within his authority.

Grete never heard him say that suffering is a good thing.

Every time the old priest preached to people, he always said that a happy life must be created by one’s own hands, and God can only be placed in the spirit and soul.

He will not suffer for you, nor can he relieve you from suffering.

The only person who can bring oneself out of suffering is oneself.

When children like Grete who came from the welfare home come to listen to the sermon, he will tell them implicitly.

Embrace knowledge, arm yourself with knowledge, and rewrite your own destiny with diligence and hard work.

No matter what kind of suffering you fall into, you must firmly believe that happiness is not achieved through suffering.

Suffering may not be avoided, but you can definitely change it by yourself. If today is better than yesterday, you are one step away from suffering.

This is a serious preacher.

Maybe he is not a good pastor for the church, but for the welfare home that relies on him for support, he is the kindest and greatest person.

Now listening to the fat pastor in front of him who spared no effort to fool the people, Grete couldn’t help but feel angry from the heart.

“We must worship the omnipotent Lord. If we do not believe in Him, He will bring disaster upon us. The suffering we are experiencing now is because your faith is not strong enough.

One day, when you can devote yourself to the Lord wholeheartedly like me, your suffering will end, and you will go to the heaven where the Lord lives after you die…”

Shameless~

Grete listened to his words, and then listened to what he read through Legilimency, “If these stupid pariahs all go to the New World, who will help me take care of the manor, and who will I sell my indulgences to~”

But at this moment, the little guy followed the others around him, nodded silently, and agreed with the brainwashing view of the fat pastor.

Grete once again thought of reading the little guy’s heart.

He was really curious about the little guy’s identity and his experience.

The unicorn on his head and the silver-glowing blood all revealed to Grete the truth that he was a part of the magic world.

But now the little guy’s mind was full of prospects for future life, and Grete could not read any useful information at all.

It was not until the pastor finished preaching that the little guy stood up with a sense of reluctance.

Seeing his hesitant posture, Grete felt that as long as the pastor waved his hand, he would follow him directly.

After leaving the church, the little guy habitually walked along the wall, hiding his figure as much as possible.

Grete quietly appeared at the corner in front, leaning against the wall, listening to the little guy’s dragging footsteps gradually approaching.

I thought the little guy would choose to run away directly when he saw me.

Unexpectedly, the little guy’s actions were beyond Grete’s expectations.

I don’t know how much brainwashing magic the pastor’s words have. The moment the little guy saw him, the thought in his mind was, “The Lord will always watch the suffering I have received.”

If the timing was not right, Grete would have wanted to tear down the pastor and the church.

This damn life, what a good wizard seed has been worn out.

A wizard, even a young wizard who has not formally learned magic, actually began to pin his hopes on the empty gods.

This was really hard for Gret to imagine.

But Gret also understood why the little guy would come back and drag him back to the shelter after leaving.

Gret was right, he was indeed drifting from the magic world.

But the little guy was really too young, his memory was very messy, and it was difficult to sort it out with Legilimency alone.

Gret watched him drift to the Muggle world, watched him be tricked by Muggles to go to the circus.

Watched him coveted by wizards and used as potion materials.

Unicorn, hair, blood…

The lawless black wizard locked him in a dark secret room.

If it weren’t for an accident, the black wizard blew himself up, and the little guy would never see the sun again.

However, he knew that he belonged to the magic world.

But he didn’t know how to return to the magic world.

Being too young and without any ability, he could only hope to meet a kind wizard.

But no, he never met one.

The opposition between wizards and Muggles caused most of the orthodox wizards to disappear.

The ones that the little guy could meet were all dark wizards with no moral bottom line.

Fortunately, after the little guy suffered a loss once, he knew what it meant to be cautious.

When he met someone who was suspected of being a wizard, he would observe first and not contact others rashly.

Until he met Grete who was dying.

It must be said that Grete’s appearance helped him build a positive image in the little guy’s heart.

Although Grete also studied black magic, he could even be called a top figure among black wizards.

But he never indulged in black spells, so he didn’t have the smell of those black wizards who were obsessed with black magic.

At that time, the little guy happily returned to the shelter with Grete’s coat, space bag, and the poor mouse that was almost starving.

After returning to the shelter, he put the mouse away, threw his clothes on the bed, and started to search Gret’s bag.

At that time, the little guy was just thinking about getting a few shillings from the bag so that he could take the risk of buying two pieces of black bread when he was too hungry.

Who would have thought that when he opened the wallet, he would see the space expanded by the traceless extension spell.

At that time, the little guy realized that the corpse he thought was actually a wizard.

Then he hurried over there and dragged Gret out of the sewage.

Fortunately, Grete could only lie dead and could not move, and there was no disgusting evil in his eyes.

This made the little guy give up the idea of ​​changing shelters.

Otherwise, the little guy would have abandoned Grete early and found another place.

Grete was lucky that he was still decent, otherwise, given his condition at the time, he would have met death in a few days after the little guy abandoned him.

Then there was the church. When the little guy was abducted by the Muggles, he heard someone talking about the content of the pastor’s sermon.

In addition, he had never experienced a stable life since he was born.

He felt that he was the legendary unbeliever. Many times, he thought that if he believed in the gods, he would not be tortured by life like this.

Over time, he was full of fantasies about the church, the church, and the pastor.

But his appearance was very different from that of the Muggles, so as long as he went out and moved a little, he would attract other people’s attention.

The copper hats would chase him for several streets, if he was not small, he could get into many places that adults could not go.

He had been captured by those people and given to the nobles as a plaything.

Therefore, he had never had the opportunity to see the church and listen to the preaching of the pastor.

All the impressions of the church in his mind came from what he heard from passers-by, that people are born to accept the hardships of life.

The rest were all his imagination.

Today, he found that no matter how he moved, he would not attract other people’s attention.

He had no time to think about what happened, and he was determined to see the church that could bring a happy life and listen to the teachings and will from the gods.

Every day, he was forced to search for the little guys who could sustain their lives in various garbage dumps, and he had no perfect way of thinking.

So the systematic instigation that the pastor said was a golden rule for him.

This is why he lost the desire to escape when he saw Grete recovering.

“Perhaps this is the suffering I must go through. I must redeem my sins as soon as possible and go to the land of happiness.

When that happens, no one will bully me anymore.”

Grete was speechless. They had been together for so long, but the little guy still lacked trust in him.

The fat pastor who could be called a scumbag just made a few random remarks to make the little guy accept reality.

He couldn’t tell for a moment whether the little guy was easy to fool or not.

Obviously, after he recovered his language function, a few random remarks would only make the little guy more alert.

Before Grete could explain something, he suddenly sensed that the little jade sword he carried with him, Kunlun’s token, had moved.
