Retirement from Hogwarts

After the dinner, it was already the next morning when Claudia, one of the few victims of the dinner, woke up from her bed in the school hospital. She sat between her and Hermione's bed and watched the scene unfold. Jack, who had obtained the ancient books from the relatives of the Malfoy family who did not want to owe him any favors, smiled and asked her after seeing what she was doing: "How does it feel to look up at the stars?"

Claudia had finally forgotten that feeling. When she heard Jack's question, she once again thought of the mouthful she had at the dinner party and looked up at the stars. She felt as if she was being licked by countless small fishes of all kinds. Licking away.The feeling of being drilled and tangled around made her face suddenly fall. "Where did you get that recipe? The magic chef who came up with this thing should be destroyed."

"Well... good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease. It has been like this since ancient times. Although its taste is a little bit worse, the effect is real, isn't it?" Jack shrugged with a pleasant smile on his face. said.

"Well, that's right." Although the effect of looking up at the stars actually made her successfully promoted to the great magician, she still felt that there was something in Jack's smile that made her want to repair him severely. A meal of malice.

"What's wrong with me? Why am I here?" Hermione also woke up at this time. Like Claudia, her brain also chose to seal the memory of last night.

"You ate too much last night and your stomach has been uncomfortable, so I sent you to Madam Pomfrey to stay for one night." Jack helped the confused Hermione tidy up her hair, and then helped her forget about it. After hearing last night's memory about the smell of looking up at the stars, Hermione made up a new memory without mentioning anything about last night.After what happened last night, Hermione fell asleep again, but her expression was not as painful as before.

After he put Hermione to sleep again, he raised his head and saw Claudia glaring at him angrily. She was obviously very dissatisfied with Jack treating her and Hermione differently.He looked at Claudia's face and quickly raised his hands. Fearing that she would wake Hermione up and expose his lies, Jack quickly found a new topic to talk about. "Senior sister, did you succeed in advancing last night?"

"Yes, thanks to you looking up at the stars, you successfully broke through the ninth-level senior mage and became a great magician." Claudia glanced at Hermione after answering Jack's question: "Where is your little lover? A breakthrough too?"

"Hermione is no less talented than you. Why can't she become a seventh-level high-level mage if you can break through to a great mage?" Jack shrugged, as if he didn't notice the trap in Claudia's question. replied.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you've admitted it." Claudia smiled charmingly after inducing Jack's words, and then said, "It must be very stressful to be chased by your little lover. You have such a good panacea at hand. Why don't you use it? Isn't it because you're afraid it tastes bad?"

"Of course not, I just feel that now is not the time to make a breakthrough, so I plan to wait." Jack shrugged, firmly refusing to admit that he refused to advance by looking up at the stars because the dish was too unpalatable.

"Okay, whatever you say." Seeing his tired look, Claudia waved her hands in disinterest, and then asked, "What good show did I miss last night?"

"Last night was just the same boring old stories I told you." Jack shrugged. "The real show starts today."

"What's the show? Your little plan succeeded and Fudge stepped down?" Claudia asked enthusiastically.

"That's not true

Yes, although the impeachment process has begun, it will still be a while before the investigation is completed.There's been a lot of big news recently. "Jack said and sent the homepage of his news network here.

"Fudge even revealed the identity of the real mastermind behind those orc mercenaries last time? You really worked hard to get rid of him and made a big news." Claudia supported it boredly. Browsing the 'big news' that had long been old news to her, but when he scrolled down two pages, an article titled "Shocking, Dumbledore actually embezzled Hogwarts in order to maintain the Order of the Phoenix." The article "Ci Income" made her straighten up in surprise. "But what happened to Principal Dumbledore? Embezzling public funds?"

"The identity of the mastermind behind the scenes is just an agreement made with the Church of Necessary Evil. As for the big news about Dumbledore, it is probably because Fudge has stepped down and wants to pull some backers to dump out the dirty information. I have to say that he After being the Minister of Magic for so many years, his other achievements are nothing but big news. He still has a lot of big news. I just don’t know how many people he can drag into the water before he is finished." Jack smiled maliciously. It was obvious that Fudge had Dogs biting dogs gave him great pleasure.

"What do you think will happen to the principal this time?" Claudia asked worriedly.

"Although he will not retire, his authority will probably be completely weakened." Jack replied without thinking.

"Sure enough, this matter has something to do with you." Claudia showed a clear expression after hearing Jack's unthinking answer.

"This time it really has nothing to do with me." Jack said with a grimace. "Although I did plan this kind of thing, I also planned this matter last night after taking over the Malfoy family's shares that were originally managed by other shareholders. I was waiting for Crouch, the new minister I supported, to come to power before letting him investigate. . But I didn’t expect that Fudge would reveal it in advance.”

"So why are you targeting this poor old man like me?" Dumbledore, who quietly walked into the school hospital at some unknown time, asked behind him.

"Of course it's because old man, you are too lenient, and you don't care about other people's privacy at all. You just run around in the school." Jack turned around and said unhappily. "You were the one who made that damn black magic classification, right principal? Other star clusters don't have such boring things."

"Based on what I know about you, your qualifications shouldn't require that kind of thing. Those things are either used to extend your life, or are used to target the soul and the origin of life, or they are used to summon demons and undead spirits. "What's the use of learning these things?" Dumbledore asked with a strange expression after hearing Jack's accusation.

"Principal, you are simply discriminating. Except for the magic that affects the user's mind, the remaining magic is not evil at all. How to use a weapon is only related to the person holding it. It shouldn't be difficult to understand, right?" Jack shrugged He said with a shrug.

"You are right, but how do you ensure that those who have learned these magics will not do evil?" Dumbledore was not happy after hearing Jack's opinion. You, a little brat, actually want to point fingers at an elder like me. ?It seems like I have to impart some life lessons to you little brat.

"This is entirely a question of moral education and has nothing to do with magic. Even if they don't learn these magics, people with bad moral character will still use other magics to do evil. Simply banning these magics is tantamount to killing them. The knowledge passed down by our ancestors and the burden of training for the graduates’ employment units are not necessary at all.” Give life lessons to me, a brat?Jack couldn't help but curl up his lips as he looked at the information coming from Dumbledore's blue eyes behind his half-moon lenses. Naive, it's not clear who is older between the two of us.
