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

Chapter 95 For freedom and progress



"Since the beginning of the fifteenth century, starting from the land beneath our feet, Muggles have begun to persecute wizards.

Before this, no matter what the Muggles' attitude was towards wizards, wizards did not think that this person who was hundreds of times larger than their own group would become a threat in the future.

Why?

Because under the social conditions at that time, wizards had the most extensive knowledge, the most powerful force, and the most advanced production methods in the world.

Muggles are inherently disadvantaged compared to wizards.

No matter how hard Muggles try, they can't do any harm to real wizards.

So at that time, defeating wizards was just a way for some religions to make money by fooling the people.

There are even a considerable number of wizards who choose to deliberately expose their identities.

When he was being burned at the stake, he put a fire-avoiding spell on himself and pretended to wail.

When the Muggle executioner was proud of his methods, he walked out unscathed.

They call this a game.

If anyone has read the book "Ancient Wizards and Muggles" carefully, you will know that there were still people who could really cause harm to wizards at that time, and they were a group called witchers.

Only they can cause harm to real wizards.

However, their method was rather crude, they pretended to be injured, and when the kind-hearted wizard approached him to help him check and heal his injuries, they gave the poor wizard a knife.

In addition, poisoning, traps...

So human or non-human methods almost made them think clearly.

But in any case, no matter how hard the demon hunters try, limited to social development, it will be difficult for Muggles to shake the dominant position of wizards.

At that time, the advantage was still on our wizard's side.

However, it was also from this stage that wizards and Muggles began to gradually split into two groups.

Religions have not posed a great threat to the life safety of the entire group of wizards, but they have torn apart the cornerstone of peaceful coexistence between wizards and Muggles in terms of public opinion.

Wizards gradually began to hide their identities, not out of fear, but to avoid trouble.

Even if they hide their identities, they do not choose to stay away from the Muggle world. Instead, they live in the Muggle world. They believe that as long as they are careful, they will not encounter any danger even if their identities are exposed.

——

However, after 1520, in our historical records, the casualty rate of wizards suddenly rose to a peak.

That's because the Muggles at that time invented real guns, rifled rifles.

In the past, when Muggles attacked, wizards could easily use magic spells to help themselves escape from danger.

However, the emergence of firearms broke this balance.

Once the wizard's identity is exposed, a bullet can take away a life.

At this time, Muggles began to persecute wizards.

As casualties increase day by day, the magic world finds that the magic spell that used to be invincible suddenly seems not so reliable.

It was also because of the massacre during this period that the entire group of wizards began to be in turmoil, and everyone was at war.

All wizards are worried that one day an unavoidable bullet will be fired from the street corner.

Wizards began to gradually move away from Muggle villages, towns, and cities.

For their own safety, wizards had to turn their energy to the development of hidden methods.

Hidden spells were mostly invented or improved during this time period.

This stage is a stalemate stage, but because the number of Muggles is hundreds of times that of wizards, wizards are slightly at a disadvantage.

The deaths of a large number of wizards turned public opinion in the magical society towards confrontation.

The rift between wizards and Muggles has become more acute because of blood feuds and the concept of the entire group.

The two groups were officially torn apart.

A large number of wizards gathered together, trying to stay warm by hugging each other.

By the end of the seventeenth century, Muggles were developing faster and faster, and wizards were becoming more and more difficult to survive.

Relations between wizards and Muggles have finally reached their lowest point.

For the survival of the entire group, the magical world promulgated the Law of Secrecy in 1689, which was officially established three years later and enforced by the magical governments of various countries.

Since then, the wizarding world of various countries has officially disappeared from the Muggle world, and the peaceful coexistence of Muggles and wizards has become a luxury.

This law was enacted by the International Confederation of Wizards to protect the entire wizarding world from Muggle discovery.

The Ministry of Magic in each country is responsible for concealing the existence of magic in their country.

In addition, they also need to control magical animals in their own country, curb minors from public displays of magic, and ensure that people will not be discovered by Muggles when they engage in magical sports in secret.

Leakers will bear corresponding legal responsibilities, ranging from property penalties to imprisonment, and ultimately deprivation of life, depending on the harm caused by the leak.

By now, Muggle and wizard societies have become segregated.

But in the days to come, Muggles are developing at a rapid pace, and we are already lagging behind.

If this continues, the Muggle military will not even need to declare war on us.

Maybe one day in the future, just an ordinary Muggle will be able to carry a portable super weapon and wipe out all of us. "

Gretel stood on the high platform at the Moldova Ministry of Magic meeting and spoke out his opinions.

All around were local wizards from Moldova.

Gretel didn't want to appear so rude when he first came up, so he used force to surrender.

In his opinion, this group of wizards who chose to help Moldovan Muggles survive the famine were the most suitable to develop new members from among them.

"So, you want to lead a revolution in the wizarding world 'for the greater good', overthrow the International Statute of Secrecy, and establish a new order to rule all mankind?

Mike Gretel, I've heard your name, is a popular figure in the global wizarding community. Not long ago, he was listed as one of the most outstanding wizards of our time.

I heard that your portrait was going to be recorded. I thought you were a person who devoted himself to research. Unexpectedly, you turned out to be another Grindelwald, a fourteen-year-old Grindelwald. "

Gretel looked over and saw that the person speaking was a short, fat old man with rosacea and gray hair. His name was John King. He was leaning there with a sneer on his face.

The information Morn Secht gave him mentioned that John King had a good friend who followed Grindelwald and said he would fight for the interests of wizards.

In the end, he was sentenced by the International Federation of Wizards and sent to Azkaban for attempting to break the law of secrecy.

At the same time, he was also the leader who firmly opposed support for Muggles.

However, because most people chose to support it at the time, he finally recognized it by holding his nose and participated in the rescue of Muggle agriculture.

"Grindelwald?

It seems that everyone who gets to know me for the first time thinks that I am the next Grindelwald. It is true that Mr. Grindelwald is indeed a senior to me.

But I don't think his actions will be helpful to the wizards.

Again, the contradiction comes from the class itself. Even if Grindelwald can succeed, how long can his career last?

Even though wizards and Muggles are now two different groups, the reason is that we are still human beings.

I have a question for everyone here.

Are you willing to have a group of people riding on your head all the time, squeezing you?

Does it feel good to be oppressed? Can any of you endure oppression forever? "

As Gretel spoke, he linked all the particles in the entire conference room and formed a solid block in front of the group of wizards, slowly suppressing them.

Even though Gretel's target is not Cedric and the others, they still seem to be carrying a burden weighing more than a thousand kilograms.

Not to mention standing up, even blinking is difficult.

Fortunately, Grete just gave an example and waved his hand, and the atmosphere in the entire conference room became relaxed again.

"The real pressure in just one second has made everyone's faces pale and their breathing rapid.

So considering the wizarding world as one person, how much pressure does the progress of the Muggle world bring to the wizarding world?

Even if there is no me today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, as long as wizards are not extinct, one day they will take up arms and rush out to resist this damn secrecy law.

I'm not saying that the Secrecy Law is bad. Historically, the promulgation of the Secrecy Law has indeed helped the wizarding sect successfully recuperate.

Separating from Muggles protects the lives of wizards and the existence of the wizarding world.

However, the law lags behind and should progress with the progress of the times.

But the Secrecy Act imprisons wizards and refuses to understand Muggle culture.

Even to the point of overkill, Alasdair Maddock, chaser for the Montrose Magpies.

Because he is very obsessed with Muggle sports, he will be criticized if he tries to use football and basketball tricks in a Quidditch match.

He was even fired by team manager Cormac McLeod later because of his golfing.

There are many more things like this. Ask yourself, is this behavior really necessary?

The Law of Secrecy is no longer the law that protects the safety of wizards.

In my opinion, the current confidentiality law is more like a chain, a chain of will and soul forged with rules and traditions.

Because of the habit formed by the Secrecy Law, wizards refuse to understand Muggles, in the name of preventing Muggles from discovering the existence of the magical world.

But everyone present, who doesn't know about the entanglement between the Ministry of Magic and the Muggle government in various countries.

If you really want to keep it a secret, you should use the Traceless Stretching Charm to create a world and lock everyone in. From now on, you should have no contact with the Muggle world.

Also because of the habits formed by the Secrecy Law, the damn magic world also divides wizards into three, six or nine levels, pure blood, mixed blood, and mudbloods like me.

These are all bad habits caused by seclusion. Only in this way can the 'noble' wizard blind his eyes and whitewash the lie of wizard supremacy in his brain.

The chain of the Law of Secrecy needs to be taken off a long time ago. Only by taking off the chain can wizards let go of their arrogance and get in touch with and understand the ever-changing Muggle society.

Of course, breaking the law of secrecy does not mean casually announcing the existence of the magical world to the world.

That is courting death. Regardless of the past attitudes of various countries towards the wizarding world, after centuries of development, Muggles have completely forgotten the existence of the wizarding world.

If we want to walk freely in the sun, we need to consider not only ourselves as wizards, but also the acceptance of us by the Muggle government.

Of course, I believe that in the current stable and developing social environment, they will not allow us to appear in front of ordinary people so casually.

That means a revision of order, the transcendent, often means chaos.

Unlike Grindelwald, I never considered using violence to coerce the Muggle government.

The war started by Grindelwald is destined to fail.

In front of that devastating Muggle weapon, we wizards have no room to resist. It cannot be stopped by human power.

Now, why have I never considered using violence?

If I just make changes in the wizarding world, the Muggle government will probably just choose to wait and see.

This has been the relationship between Muggles and wizards for centuries.

Not only do we see Muggles as another group, Muggles also see us as very different from them.

A group that does not distinguish between friends and foes for the time being, but only uses each other, and has a high probability of becoming opponents in the future.

Normal people would like it to be as messy as possible.

But once I plan to reach out to Muggles, I'm going to make waves in the Muggle world.

Believe it or not, in less than three days, all wizarding gathering places around the world will be taken down by the Muggle government.

They have this ability, but they are not taking action now just because the enemy cannot move and I cannot move.

Therefore, when facing the Muggle world, I probably will not use force.

I have no intention of quarreling between the wizarding world and Muggle society.

Hundreds of years ago, their witch-hunting campaign was able to beat the wizards who were barely keeping up with the times to a crawl.

In this situation, once we take action, I can't guarantee that the magic world will be able to hold on for how many days.

Granted, Muggles probably can't kill all wizards, and they probably won't do that.

But they are fully capable of destroying the wizarding society in the magical world.

Muggle Expelling Charms, Confusion Charms, and a host of hidden spells can erase the presence of wizards from Muggle senses.

But the wizard's existence cannot be erased from the material world.

According to relevant records leaked from the disintegration of Soviet Russia, radiation can affect wizards' spells.

If there is a war between the wizarding world and the Muggle world, there is a high probability that the Muggles will win, but a small probability that both sides will suffer. There is no possibility that the wizards will win.

Don't look at me with that sensationalist look. We have conducted deductions on this issue. "

Penello promptly presented the meeting and research records she had done to everyone present.

"According to our deduction, if we start a war with the Muggle government, even if they don't use nuclear weapons, we have no chance of winning.

Nowadays, the effective range of firearms is generally more than 1,300 feet, and the killing distance is even several times the effective range.

Not to mention their missiles and fighter jets.

Mr. John King, times have changed.

Yet you still look clueless.

This is why Dawn, insists on breaking the secrecy law.

For freedom and for progress! "
