Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way

In the next few days, Harley began a regular life of studying magic with Grindelwald.

Although Grindelwald seemed to see the shadow of someone from his past in Harley, he somehow didn't like Harley.

But when it comes to teaching, he is still very serious.

The teaching process was also very simple. Grindelwald continued to teach Harley how to use the Fire Curse, and even taught Harley his bottom-line understanding of the Fire Curse.

But Harley is not just learning dark magic over and over again.

When using the Fire Curse, Grindelwald asked Harley to concentrate all her energy and carefully feel the wanting to destroy everything, wanting to destroy everything, wanting to watch when using the Fire Curse. Let the world burn” negative emotions.

While feeling these negative emotions, Harley also needs to maintain her good mood and pure heart and not be disturbed by negative emotions.

In terms of how to get rid of the erosion of negative emotions, Grindelwald believes that it is very similar to Occlumency.

The conventional way for ordinary wizards to learn Occlumency is to master some tricks to empty their brains, and then let outsiders continuously use Legilimency spells on them to create interference, thereby practicing this magic.

The training arranged by Grindelwald now has the same principle, except that the emotional pollution from black magic cannot be released by others. Instead, it becomes Harley creating it by herself, and then fighting it by herself.

Professor Dumbledore, who was watching, actually did not fully accept this training method, even if Grindelwald used Occlumency as an example.

After all, even if one cannot learn Occlumency, Legilimency will not cause irreversible harm to the cursed person. At most, it will only produce some sequelae that can be cured with magic potions.

But if Harley is really eroded by the negative emotions of black magic... then she will have great fun. She will have accelerated the realization of what she was worried about.

However, out of his unconditional trust in Grindelwald and his affirmation of Harley's magical attainments, Professor Dumbledore did not say much.

Regarding this training, Harry really felt that it was a useless exercise.

Don’t you need to abandon the influence of black magic? These black magic have no effect on me at all!

Just kidding, is the pollution of the soul caused by mere negative emotions comparable to the pollution caused by a hair of an angel on earth?

Moreover, Extraordinaries of the Witch path need to endure the erosion of despair, pain and other negative emotions for a long time, and they will lose control if they are not careful.

Harley felt that she had come a long way and was now an angel on earth. Apart from the Old Ones and the True God, there should be no existence that could corrode her.

On the contrary, Harry really felt that he had benefited a lot from the knowledge of the Fire Curse that Grindelwald had mentioned when teaching him.

Although Harry did learn a lot of extremely evil black magic in the library of Sirius's old Black house, including knowledge about the Fire Curse, that knowledge was too traditional and even a little outdated. .

Grindelwald has made new developments in the Fire Curse.

He made his fierce fire proliferate faster and became more violent when facing others, but when facing the spell caster, it became more docile and easier to control, thus avoiding the phenomenon of the fierce fire devouring the master as much as possible.

Grindelwald can even make the fire he summons have the ability to distinguish who is loyal to him, clearly distinguishing traitors, enemies and loyal followers.

Although Grindelwald has this ability, the most important reason is because he gained something from the waters infected by the Sea of ​​Chaos.

But Grindelwald continued to study and successfully summed up certain magic skills.

Stones from other hills, can learn.

Now Harley has been thinking about how to combine the fierce fire with various natural disasters such as bolide, sky fire, and the flames attached to the magma to create more powerful natural disasters.

In addition to teaching Harry magic, Grindelwald spent the rest of his time alone reading newspapers from various countries and reading various books.

Professor Dumbledore was obviously very busy. He asked Fox to take him away from here every day, and only occasionally came back to rest and have afternoon tea at Greenwood.

Grindelwald's afternoon tea was much more delicious than the afternoon tea that Professor Dumbledore could enjoy. After all, in order to ensure the safety of Paris, the French Ministry of Magic hired a bunch of Muggle chefs to make pastries specifically for Grindelwald.

And every time at this time, Grindelwald would drag Professor Dumbledore to bask in the sun on the roof of Nurmengard Tower, while drinking tea and chatting.

Obviously, the two old people enjoyed this leisurely pace of life, and even wished that their lives could stay like this forever.

But this was obviously impossible. Letters brought by owls and a copy of the Daily Prophet from the UK finally broke the leisurely life.

In today's newspaper, Secretary Fudge appeared on the front page with a smile, but his smile looked a bit forced.

He announced a major event in the newspaper - Fudge officially canceled Professor Dumbledore's identity as the British representative of the International Federation of Wizards, which directly caused Professor Dumbledore to lose his position as president of the International Federation of Wizards.

After all, the chairman of the federation can only be held by a member of the federation, and the members of the International Federation of Wizards in various countries are representatives of the ministries of magic in each country and are directly appointed and removed by the minister of the ministry of magic.

Therefore, as long as Fudge cancels Dumbledore's identity as the British representative, his position as president of the International Federation of Wizards will naturally disappear.

In fact, Fudge also attempted to remove Professor Dumbledore from other roles, such as the position of Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot in England.

And most of the pure-blood family members are more cooperative with Fudge. More than half of the Wizengamotri members chose to vote against Dumbledore after receiving the accusation from Fudge.

But when the votes were finally counted, about two-fifths of the wizards still chose to vote for Professor Dumbledore.

Some of the votes supporting Professor Dumbledore belonged to wizards who were friends with Dumbledore, such as Ms. Marchibane and Mr. Tofoday.

Although they are all pure blood and can enter the Wizengamot, this does not prevent them from always standing by Professor Dumbledore's side and always supporting him.

In addition, many purebloods who were originally neutral also chose to vote for Professor Dumbledore for the first time. I don't know what made them make this decision.

It was these votes that allowed Professor Dumbledore to successfully stay in the Wizengamot and continue to serve as the chief wizard.

This made Fudge furious. After all, the chief of the British Wizengamot had a lifelong tenure and was not a subordinate agency of the Ministry of Magic.

Unless more than two-thirds of the members agree to let the chief step down, there is nothing anyone can do.

Fudge could only feel helpless and furious about this, and felt horrified that his ministerial power and deterrence seemed to be getting less and less.

After reading the news in the newspaper and the letters sent by wizards who were friends with Professor Dumbledore, Grindelwald was very surprised:

How dare these people from the British Ministry of Magic dare? Are they really not afraid that you will kill them? I really don't know who gave them the courage to deal with you like this.

Professor Dumbledore shook his head: Gellert, you know I won't do this.

Although I'm beginning to hate Fudge now, what I hate is that he doesn't care about the overall situation, the future of the magical world, and is selfish and greedy for power.

But his actions were within the rules and did not violate the laws of the Ministry of Magic or the regulations of the International Federation of Wizards.

So I guess I have no reason to resist, especially with violence and magic.

That's right, I almost forgot that you are a good old man. Grindelwald said in a bad tone.

Good people should be pointed at with wands anyway. They don't have the guts to point wands at dark wizards.

If you were replaced by me, I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to do this even if I borrowed their courage.

Taking a step back, if it were your good-for-nothing dark wizard Voldemort from the UK, they probably wouldn't even dare to let go of him.

So you are a prisoner now, Tom is hiding, and I am the Headmaster of Hogwarts. Professor Dumbledore shook his head.

Huh! Grindelwald snorted coldly.

If you hadn't stopped me back then, I would have completely unified the wizarding world and the Muggle world and established a society where strength is supreme.

Where will there be such insects that eat nothing but corpses?

It's a pity that you were unwilling to help me at first...

Grindelwald's old face suddenly turned pale, realizing that he had said the wrong thing.

He coughed hard several times and looked at Dumbledore with a guilty conscience.

Harry, who was reading the Fire Curse notes written by Grindelwald himself, subconsciously stopped flipping through the notes, and her ears under her hair twitched slightly.

She quietly turned her gaze to the two of them, and for the first time, she read a little regret and fear in Grindelwald's eyes, which were always full of confidence.

Harry thought for a moment and finally remembered the stories Professor Dumbledore told him after he had a head-on confrontation with him a year ago.

Hiss~!

Mr. Grindelwald seems to have stepped on a thunderbolt.

Professor Dumbledore seemed to have remembered something, his blue eyes slowly closed, and he fell into silence.

The room became quiet, and the sound of flying insects flapping their wings outside could be heard clearly.

Sorry, Albus. Grindelwald cautiously tried and lowered his head.

However, under the cover of the hair on his forehead, he quietly turned his eyes from time to time, quickly glanced at Professor Dumbledore, and then looked away again.

Somehow, Harley felt like he was a child who had made a mistake and was facing his angry old father.

You don't need to apologize. I was the one who was wrong.

Professor Dumbledore finally spoke, but his voice was a little dry and full of deep regret.

Everything happened because of me. I was sorry for my mother, I was sorry for Aberforth, I was sorry for you, and I was even more sorry for... Ariana.

Seeing that the atmosphere was developing in a dangerous direction, Harley quickly opened her mouth and changed the subject:

Professor, who is the current president of the International Federation of Wizards?

It's not confirmed yet. Professor Dumbledore replied subconsciously when he heard Harry's voice.

The federation does not have the position of vice president, so if you want to determine a new president or acting president, you need to go through a long election.

“Even the joint meeting that was supposed to take place this summer was postponed until next year because of me.”

Harry couldn't help but shook his head. It didn't take much thinking to know that this postponement of one year would be the time to attract votes for various wizards who wanted to run for office.

After all, only those who obtain more than half of the votes are qualified to serve as the president of the federation.

Harry still remembered that there were records in the history of magic. The longest time it took was five years to elect a president.

It can only be said that this group of sub-state representatives are not very good at magic, but when it comes to competing for interests, they can really use any tricks.

Speaking of which, I don't know who the current representative of the United Kingdom is. Grindelwald also picked up the topic and quickly opened the newspaper.

Let me take a look...Dolores Umbridge? Who is she?

A woman with a strong desire for power. Harley thought of the disgusting woman she had seen.

She likes to kneel and lick Fudge very much, which is why she became the senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic. She was able to steal the position of British representative, probably through the back door.

…………

Although Professor Dumbledore lost his position as president, the members of the Federation still respected him very much and did not expel him from Nurmengard.

Of course, there is actually a more important reason for their move.

Just kidding, if Dumbledore is really driven away, then who will guard Grindelwald? By the man who proposed Dumbledore's removal?

Once these words came out, no one proposed targeting Dumbledore.

Although everyone wants to strive for more benefits and divide more power as much as possible.

But when it comes to matters involving life, these politicians are relatively clear about things.

Even at the recent informal meeting to elect the president, someone suggested that Dumbledore should be given special measures to allow him to continue to be the president.

Umbridge firmly voted against it and volunteered, wanting to selflessly assume Dumbledore's former responsibilities.

But the other members of the International Federation of Wizards gave her a slap in the face. After all, who knows you? Do you deserve it?

Some of Dumbledore's admirers even directly launched mental verbal attacks on Umbridge, scolding her like hell.

If you just act like a puppet and a puppet, no one will target you.

But if you show your face to seek scolding... don't blame these political hooligans for being ruthless.

Has Umbridge ever seen this scene before?

Most of the officials in the British Ministry of Magic are members of pure-blood families. They claim to be nobles, so they naturally want to be civilized with each other.

Therefore, although many people were unhappy with Umbridge and felt that she had violated their own interests by flattering her and burning bridges, they did not criticize her directly.

This caused the old woman, who thought she was a little girl, to collapse immediately after being scolded, and fled out of the meeting hall.

And those wizards felt that they had not had enough, so they directly used magic to conjure several loudspeakers, chasing Umbridge and scolding her all the way.

The other members just watched this scene indifferently, and no one stopped them.

Do you really think that this is your UK and everyone wants to spoil you? If we don't beat you, we are afraid of getting our hands dirty!
