Chapter 1076 XII
You know, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is recognized as one of the most democratic and unclassed great schools of magic, influenced by Ilvermorny's school ethos... Although you don't care about your background as a student recruited by Hogwarts, your style..."Leonard paused a little embarrassed, "but your style is too authoritarian in their eyes, and many people think that you can't tolerate other voices when you expelled Dumbledore from the school when you expelled those pure-blood families......"
Hermione, who was taking a sip of butterbeer, put down her glass when she heard this: "Ilvermorny's sense of England has always been not very good, and it is also a historical problem that Isolt, the founder of Ilvermorny, although she is British herself, did not go to Hogwarts because of the persecution of her British aunt Gormlait Gaunt, and was forced to board the Mayflower and live in the Americas..."
"Miss Granger is really knowledgeable, and I'm still going to tell you what you don't know... In fact, it's not just a historical factor, it's not a conflict of ideas, it's also the competition for the title of the best magic school in the world, Ilvermorny has always regarded Hogwarts as its biggest competitor, so some radical young people can easily become hostile to Hogwarts..."Leonard said very reassuringly, and then looked at Alan, "And this time at the International Federation of Wizards, Alan, you used the strength of Britain to show such arrogance and force, forcing President Abakinder to bow his head and apologize... Passing it back will definitely be used as a lever by the stiffness of the Graves family, the leader of the opposition side, to bring you more hostility and naysayers. ”
"The Greaves family, one of the twelve Aurors originally recruited by the Magical Congress of America?" Hermione, who had business with other countries under the umbrella, reacted immediately, and then she looked at Alan and explained to him, "The first group of volunteers of the Aurors occupies a special place in the history of American magic, and the challenges faced by these twelve people are very great, so when they volunteer to join the Aurors, they are mentally prepared that they may need to sacrifice their lives... The first mission of the Magical Congress was to judge those who had betrayed their fellow wizards. The sorcerer betrayers who committed murder, sorcerer human trafficking, torture, and other atrocities have finally been executed... However, only two of the original twelve Aurors survived to old age, and in the magical society, they and the generations that followed, were treated with great respect. ”
"I actually have the impression that I've read a little bit of the files of the British Ministry of Magic, and in 1692 and 1693, the Salem witch trials in the United States took place... At least two of the leaders of the so-called Puritan Inquisitors at the time were known purges... The reason why there are so many no-Maj and mixed-race wizards in the U.S. in the No-Maj world is precisely because there are some notorious purges who have escaped the pursuit of the Magical Congress of the United States. After the international manhunt warrant was issued, these people disappeared forever from the Maj crowd. Some of them began to form families with No-Maj, giving birth to children who were gifted with magic and were discarded, leaving only unmagical offspring to hide their identity as purges. ”
"And the reason why the American wizarding community has enforced secrecy that is even stricter than the secrecy law itself in the first place, the Rappaport law promulgated by the United States itself, which stipulates that wizards who are willing to lock their wands in the cabinet cannot marry No-Maj..." During an outing, the witch Dorcus Twelve Trees becomes obsessed with him... Bartholomew is a firm believer in magic and believes that all wizards are evil and should be destroyed. So he managed to extract a lot of magic-related information from Dorcas and made it public, causing the International Secrecy Act to be seriously violated... This incident led to the Magical Congress of the United States enacting a tougher law that forced the strict separation of the No-Maj and the wizarding world to prevent such incidents from happening again. When Alan confessed in front of Hermione that she wanted to break the secrecy law, she used the example that American No-Maj and wizards couldn't get married, and she found out the ins and outs of these rules and regulations.
"If you're in the Ilvermorny Chamber... The crystal embedded in the forehead of the horned water snake will definitely shine....what an impressive knowledge..."Leonard was a little dumbfounded, "But the cat-leopard statue in my academy probably won't let out a roar at a student like you..."
"I probably wouldn't make the cat-leopard statue scream, but Leonard—" Alan nodded and shook again, "but Hermione and she can... No one would be able to count her if she wasn't a Resolute Warrior, and you might have forgotten that she was from Gryffindor, and the Hogwarts Sorting Hat almost got her to Ravenclaw in the first place. ”
"No, Alan, don't praise me!" Hermione's flushed face at the sudden compliment made Alan nod in satisfaction.
"And Hermione has a pet that is the Thunderbird, and she is also adventurous, so the statue wings of the Thunderbird Academy, which is keen to accept the adventurous, must be spread for Hermione, and Puquech chooses to accept the kind and noble healer... Hermione's umbrella makes potions cheaply, and she's good at medical spells, so the statue of Pokage will definitely raise her bow and arrow for her... If there is more than one house statue that expresses a willingness to solicit students, then the choice falls to the students themselves, but this is very rare, Leonard, it seems like it only happens once in ten years?" Alan didn't let Hermione go.
Hermione was already a little overwhelmed: "That's enough! Alan don't say..."
"Miss Granger, you may think he's complimenting you because of your relationship, but you're a great witch... If you do that much, you might be able to make all four statues react." Leonard was also a little excited about the way he could interact with Jessica... But then Hermione's eyes and the memory that he would have to talk to her about some investment matters later, made his momentum soften immediately, and he coughed dryly twice and changed the topic, "By the way, speaking of Pukchi... The Pokech named William, who saved founder Isolt and her husband James, may still be alive! To this day, there are still many Pokchi who work at the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry... They continue to complain and insist that they don't want to stay at the school, but year after year, the Pukechi still haunt the school mysteriously, and no one knows what Pukec's lifespan is, so no one knows if William has died... However, there is a particularly elderly Pukchi at the school who will respond to the name "William". ”
Alan was a little interested: "Then this Pukeqi has a lifespan of more than 300 years..."
Leonard nodded: "This Pukchi has been in the marble statue of Guardian Isolt, and every year on Isolt's death day, she puts a few Mayflowers on her grave. However, if someone carelessly mentions it, he will lose his temper. He laughed at his claim that he was the one who saved Isolt and Jaime, and said that if that William was still alive, he would have been more than three hundred years old. Still, there are many who insist that he is the same companion Isolt once had. ”
"The next time I go to the United States, I'll have to check them out... These tsundere little guys are much cuter than their European distant cousins, the elves..."After Allen finished speaking, he saw that Hermione was also fascinated, and he quickly and deliberately stunned and exclaimed, "Wow, Hermione!
"Huh?!" Hermione, who was still immersed in the story, was startled by Alan's yell, and she jerked her head up to let her bushy hair shake, "What?
"Speaking of which, in the 1920s, when she was president of the Magical Congress of the United States for several years, Serafina Pickcorry, the most prestigious witch at the time, met - four colleges wanted to recruit her..."Allen's expression was serious, "Maybe you can be the Minister of Magic for a few years in the future..."
"That's enough!" Hermione, though she actually likes to be complimented, but now she has to keep a straight face in order to maintain her dignity in this situation, and then she rolls her eyes and says angrily, "I have to warn you, Mr. Knox and Alan... Just now it seems that we are going to talk about the fact that the American wizarding community does not like Alan your stiffness Fuji Grevis. ”
"Uh," Allen admitted, his voice a little weak, "uh... You're right—" and then he and Leonard looked at each other a little awkwardly and asked, "So, Leonard, can you tell us more about this rigid Fuji III?"
"As I said, the families of the twelve Aurors originally recruited by the American Magical Congress have considerable influence in the American magical political circle, and this stiff Fuji with the same name as his ancestor is one of them... This young man is very good and has been an Auror for a few years, O, this is the tradition of these families... When he was in school, he made all the statues react except for Puquechi, but he has always been more radical and thinks that Ilvermorny is the best magic school in the world, very talented in magic, a top student like you, and also has excellent speech organization skills, and has a strong appeal in the hearts of young people in the Wizarding Congress... You are very disgusted with Britain and Alan, and after those statements made during your fifth grade summer, you have repeatedly expressed your disgust with Harris dictatorship in public... He was also opposed to Miss Granger's umbrella coming to the United States, but you know our style, and we are very open to investment, so his views are too radical in the eyes of us old men..."
"Sounds like a stunned young man with a bit of talent..."Alan finished and took a sip of his glass, "Speaking of Hermione, Abraham Potter, one of the twelve Aurors in the United States, and Harry are still a bit distantly related, and after Harry became an immortal boy, there were enthusiastic genealogists who checked the connection between their genealogies. ”
"Alan, don't take it lightly, your live duel with Voldemort and the declaration of education reform silenced the gang for a while, so this time our neutrals can win because of this relationship..." This is a big blow to this small faction, but after that, Rigidity Fuji seems to have become more sleek, using his social talent to make friends with a lot of people, and because Ian didn't get involved, he became friends with him like many young people, and often went to bars and drinks together, so I wanted to remind you... It's not just the stiffness Fuji of the United States, of course he doesn't have the ability to do anything to you, but I think many young people in many countries... I know there are many more who adore you, but if you act too recklessly, you will push others against you if you feel threatened..."
"Thank you very much, Leonard, you, like Professor Flitwick, have always taken good care of me and treated me as one of your own...", Alan thanked him sincerely, and then paused, "But finally I have a question, with all due respect, I just noticed that you said that they go to the bar a lot, so this stiff Fuji likes to drink? Has it become more alcoholic... Like you often take a sip of a flask or something?"
"Of course not, he's not yet an alcoholic... Huh?" Leonard said half of his words and understood what Eren meant, "Alan, I know that Percival Graves is also from his family, but since the head of security of the Magic Congress was directly impersonated by Grindelwald with superb Transfiguration, the Magic Congress will conduct security checks on the members of the department from time to time, whether it is compound potion or Transfiguration, it can't be hidden..."
Alan shrugged his shoulders when he heard this: "I've seen too much recently..."
After a "bang", a woman's screams and cries came from outside the door.
