Chapter 282: I Have a Bold Idea

The owl is a graceful and proud creature.

Adult owls in the wild are very vigilant and are often difficult to tame if they are caught – they would rather starve to death on a hunger strike than eat food handed out by strangers.

This is also true in the wizarding world.

Therefore, whenever a young wizard wants to choose an owl as his pet, the adult wizard repeatedly emphasizes:

The owl will only identify one owner in its life, and from the moment it begins to domesticate it, it has made a contract that can never be torn up and terminated - only death can separate it from you.

However, the owl courier that has eliminated some of the wild is slightly more forgiving.

The long delivery journey and the heavy pressure of the parcel forced them to accept some kind of feeding from strangers to ensure that they were physically fit enough to complete their mission, or ...... Try as hard as you can to keep yourself alive and wait for the day when you will return to your master.

......

Hogwarts, Hufflepuff Common Room, corner of the girls' dormitory.

A certain flat-headed little owl silently pecked at the grain in the trough, raised its little head, and looked at the people outside the iron cage who only had a brutal and strange strength that did not match their appearance at all, and there was a pleading in their big round eyes.

"Goo~Goo~"

"Gooha!

The reserve grain, who temporarily served as the "jailer", flapped his wings impatiently, and glanced fiercely at the little duck in front of him, and the round fat chicken's face was cold and full of vigilance.

The reserve will never forget that when it happily delivered the mouse it had caught to the little master's pillow...... The fear of being grabbed by the wings of fate's little hands and carried above the big black iron pot - and, next to the big iron pot, the bones of the round-faced fat chicken scattered all over the ground.

Therefore, although the little master Elena was not in the school for a while, the reserve still diligently adhered to his duty, ensuring that no one could let go of the round-faced fat chicken that had offended the white-haired dumpling until Elena returned.

In order to ensure that this flat-headed little guy would not sneak away or starve to death on a hunger strike, the reserve grain even generously donated an iron cage that he had not slept with a few times, as well as his own trough and water bowl.

"Goo~Goo~Goo~"

The little owl drooped its head and cowered in a corner in a dejected lump of small furballs.

Ignoring the poor little captive, the two tufts of ear feathers on the head of the reserve turned flexibly, and the head was directly rotated back 180 degrees, and his eyes looked brightly in the direction of the dormitory door.

The next moment, the door of the girls' dormitory, which was hidden, was pushed open.

The Hufflepuff first-year girls walked in in twos and threes, with Elena and Hannah at the front.

Unlike the excitement after the rest of the classes, after this special magic history, all the young wizards didn't have much desire to talk, and everyone's faces were somewhat solemn and dazed.

Professor Binns was right to be concerned, some of the history was too heavy for these young men who were just entering the wizarding world—even if what he was talking about in class was only a glimpse of the era.

"Elena, Hannah, everybody...... What's going on?"

Noticing the abnormal atmosphere at the door, and glancing at the freshmen who were worried about their hearts, a senior girl sitting at the wooden table in the dormitory standing up reading a book stood up, and couldn't help frowning, a touch of confusion appeared on her face.

She had the impression that the enthusiastic and cheerful Hufflepuff House rarely had such a dull situation.

"Sister Lydia, ...... today," Hannah looked up, about to answer.

"I think you're just a little sleepy, because tonight is the history of magic. ”

Before Hannah could finish speaking, Elena suddenly interrupted Hannah's voice and replied quickly.

"Although we have tried our best to learn, history is still so heavy that people want to sleep. ”

As she spoke, Elena raised the thick "History of Magic (Hermione's)" in her arms and shook it, revealing just the right amount of helplessness.

"Hey, are you Professor Binns' History of Magic tonight?"

The Hufflepuff upperclassgirl glanced at the textbook in Elena's arms and nodded in understanding.

"I see, Professor Binns's history of magic is indeed particularly difficult - in my opinion, the whole of Hogwarts is almost second only to Potions class. Then you should pack up and rest early. ”

After hearing the conversation between the three of them, the rest of the senior girls who had originally planned to come over and ask also showed a look of palpitation, and they no longer had any doubts, and they all sat back in their positions and continued to do their own things.

"Huh?"

Hannah Abbott raised her eyebrows and stared at the white-haired dumpling beside her with some strange surprise.

But Elena didn't answer immediately, but looked at her bedside, and looked at the flat-headed owl behind the stockpile, and fell into deep thought—the little one might be able to play a bigger role.

According to her idea a week ago, the original plan was to blackmail a little gold Galleon, and by the way, find a way to use this little owl as a bridge to establish a connection with the cute Luna Lovegood, so that she can directly complete the strategy plan next semester.

However, after this lesson in the history of magic, she suddenly had an extremely bold idea.

The severance of the magical calendar occurred about 300 years ago, and wizards chose to bury their original magical years in order to stop the meaningless wheel of hatred, and to hide magical activities from the daily operations of the non-magical world as much as possible.

However, more than 300 years have passed, both the political pattern of the world and the social composition of the entire human civilization have undergone earth-shaking changes, and wizards have once again extended their magical tentacles into the non-magical world.

This time, it's softer and more hidden.

The magical governments of various countries, which were originally established based on regional cultures, have gradually become existences that can establish diplomatic relations with various non-magical governments to a certain degree of reciprocity - most heads of government have Aurors from the Ministry of Magic around them to be responsible for daily security work, on the one hand, to counter the actions of wizards in other countries, and on the other hand, to be able to counter the non-magical world at any time.

After all, the two world wars had greatly advanced scientific progress, and it was no longer the preserve of wizards to overturn the chessboard.

Perhaps in terms of small-scale special confrontations, the wizarding world is still in an absolute advantage. But when it comes to killing humans efficiently and destroying the terrain of towns, the non-magical world has mastered a terrifying weapon that wizards have to take with care.

In this delicate situation, perhaps she could forge a new era of magic from some inconspicuous places.

"Hannah, I have a bold idea......"

Glancing at the shivering little owl, Elena's eyes grew brighter as her fingers tapped on the thick cover of the History of Magic.

"Instead of passively learning about history, maybe we can do something more interesting—"
