Wizards of Hogwarts

Chapter 11 "Muggle Mode"

This kind of "homesickness" mood comes and goes quickly.After living for so many years, Elrohir has long understood how to deal with emotional problems correctly.

The moment he put on Nanya, Elohir felt that his mind became clearer and his whole person became more rational and objective. It should be due to the influence of the ring, which is the "wisdom" effect.

In Elrohir's mind, Nanya, the Water Ring, is protective in nature. Queen Galadriel uses the power of this ring to protect her territory of Lorien, keeping the land away from the influence of darkness. Any darkness, disease, or stain will contaminate the creatures on that land.

However, due to the destruction of the Supreme Lord of the Rings, the power of Nanya, the Water Ring, has also been relatively reduced.

But for the current Elrohir, the symbolic significance of Nanya is far greater than its practical significance, because he is the only elf in the new world he lives in, and there is no one to protect.

As for what will happen next, who can say for sure?

Just as Elrohir was watching the Ring of Water quietly.

dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

The next moment, Newt said sorry as he opened the door and walked into the cabin.

Elrohir put down her arms, looked at Newt, and asked: "How is the situation?"

Newt glanced at Elrohir's left hand and said: "There was indeed a Muggle who saw me perform magic just now, but was not disturbed by the confusion spell. He must have missed it accidentally. When I found him, that We were just about to talk about our affairs with others, but luckily I arrived in time, otherwise things would have become troublesome."

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Newt felt like he saw a star on Elrohir's left hand, which was extremely beautiful.

"It sounds like you are very unwilling to let those ordinary humans see that you have magical abilities." Elrohir temporarily decided to refer to ordinary people as ordinary people. He felt that the word Muggle sounded a bit unfriendly.

"Yeah." Newt nodded slightly. He didn't care about Elrohir's name for Muggles. Anyway, the meaning was the same. Speaking of which, he didn't know what wizards here in the United States called Muggles.

"But why?" Elrohir asked.

"Because, Muggles are too dangerous, and they are becoming more and more dangerous." Newt organized his words, "Even if they cannot use magic, this does not prevent Muggles from becoming the most threatening people on the planet. creature."

"What about wizards?" Elrohir was puzzled. "Logically speaking, isn't the power of wizards far greater than that of ordinary humans?"

"That's true, but our numbers are far less than that of Muggles. They are more fertile than gnomes in the garden. Over the years, wizards' living areas have been squeezed a lot, and some magical creatures have become Homeless," Newt said sadly.

"Hasn't anyone tried to make wizards and ordinary people live peacefully together?" Elrohir asked.

Newt looked at Elrohir in surprise, as if looking at a whimsical daydreamer.

"It can't be done, Elrohir." Newt repeated himself. "It can't be done."

"In ancient times, many wizards still liked to stay with Muggles. They helped Muggles answer questions, solve problems, and treat diseases. But in the end, some of those wizards were brutally killed by the fearful Muggles. In the Middle Ages, Muggles even developed a witch-hunting sport, searching for witches and killing them."

"Muggles are not willing to live in peace with wizards. They are afraid of the power of wizards, the power of magic, and things they cannot understand." Newt said, "In the eyes of Muggles, everything It can only be explained by something called science. What cannot be explained by science is wrong and needs to be eliminated."

"When wizards are exposed to Muggles on a large scale, there will only be one result, and that is war."

"So as early as 1689, the International Confederation of Wizards formulated the International Confederation of Wizards Secrecy Law, also known as the International Law of Secrecy, and the wizarding world went underground." Newt said in great detail, "Today, this law has It has been enforced for 234 years to protect the entire wizarding world from being discovered by Muggles. Every wizard has the responsibility and obligation to abide by the provisions of the International Statute of Secrecy."

In this world, are wizards the ones in the weakest position?

Elrohir thought for a while and asked: "It sounds like, Newt, you seem to hate ordinary humans, what you call Muggles."

"Hate," Newt said, "I don't hate them. There may be wizards who hate Muggles and even hurt Muggles, but those wizards will never include me."

"You like it"

"Of course not." Newt said immediately, "I regard the existence of Muggles as equals, and I don't think wizards must be superior to others."

"A neutralist" asked Elrohir.

Newt replied, "Yeah, I'm the one in the middle."

Elrohir blinked. He was not sure if what Newt said was a "world dialect". Anyway, he didn't understand it.

But before Elrohir could ask, Newt raised his hand and looked at his watch.

"I'm sorry, Elrohir, I think we can't continue talking like this." Newt said, "It's getting late and the other passengers are about to return to their cabins."

Elrohir looked at Newt with some confusion.

"You can't be seen by them. They are all Muggles and will not accept you." Newt pointed to his ears vaguely and quickly, and then pointed to his clothes, "Besides, your clothes are not suitable. In today’s fashion, Muggles would not wear robes like this.”

Elrohir nodded: "I will cover my ears with my hair, but clothes can't do anything."

"I have two suggestions. One is that I use transformation to change your clothes into current styles, but the transformation will last for a certain period of time. The second is, well, if you don't mind, I can lend you my clothes. Even though you may be a little unsuitable, you can change." Newt said hesitantly.

Another novel magic, transfiguration.

"Oh, by the way, I bought all those clothes new. No, I haven't worn them." Newt added awkwardly.

Elrohir said with a smile: "I choose the second option. Thanks again, Newt."

The purebred gay Englishman was almost pierced by Elrohir's smile.

"No, you're welcome," Newt stammered.

He squatted down, put the old brown leather suitcase that he never left his hand on the floor, and at the same time turned a brass turntable on the side of the suitcase.

Elrohir clearly saw a copper piece with "Muggle Mode Muggleworthy" printed on it pop out of the turntable and then retract immediately.

Newt opened the suitcase. The small box contained a stack of clothes, a watch, various maps, a thick diary, a magnifying glass, a telescope, and a black and yellow knitted scarf arranged very neatly.

Elrohir could vaguely see a small black beast painted on the fold of the scarf, which looked like a badger.

Newt pulled out a brand new white shirt and a pair of black pants from the bottom of the box. The creases on the clothes and pants were very obvious, confirming the words "newly bought".

Elrohir took the clothes from Newt and put them on his arm.

"There is one more thing I need to explain to you. According to the schedule, we should arrive in New York tomorrow morning." Newt said, "But the U.S. customs will not allow a strange, uh, elf to set foot in their country. .”

"Besides, Elrohir, you don't have a passport." Newt gestured with his hand, "Passport, you know."

"I know, a thing used to prove nationality." Elrohir said.

"Well, that's pretty much what it means. Elrohir, you don't have a passport, so you can't disembark with me." Newt turned his head slightly, not looking at Elrohir's face, "And you are too eye-catching, Customs The personnel will definitely not let go of checking you."

"Is there any way?" Elrohir asked bluntly.

"Yes." Newt patted his suitcase.
