Librarian at Hogwarts

Chapter 96 The Choice at the Crossroads

"If Septimus really has such ambitions, then he will definitely fall into endless turmoil in the future. Now, in the Ministry of Magic, there are so many people who want to have a relationship with Septimus .”

Even Filius couldn't help but sigh.

He then took another sip of the hot beer and quickly put the glass down.

He looked at the other three, and all three looked at each other.

It can be seen that there are some strange expressions on the faces of the four people.

"Then we should unite! Defeat Septimus!"

Neil, who was silent for a moment, suddenly shouted.

But after he said these words, he seemed to realize something - yes, Ignat had reached some kind of agreement with Septimus, so he should be considered half of Septimus. .

"Oh... of course, actually... um..."

"My words may be... too impulsive."

Neil quickly took back what he said.

It's not that his position is unfirm - his position has always been firmly on Igno's side.

In his opinion, even if Septimus wants to rule two worlds, it will not have any impact on him.

On the contrary, maybe he will also be respected because of the relationship between Igno and Septimus.

This is a difficult thing to judge - if you look at it from the perspective of a saint - anyone who actively causes killing and destruction is an evil person, then many people in this world will be evil people.

However, history is often written by the victors.

No one will care, those weak ones will be devoured, destroyed, and enslaved.

Unless you live in a peaceful age.

And if it is an era of war and strife, killing, destruction, these words with dripping blood will be as common as your daily breakfast.

Would anyone be against the war?Yes, there is no doubt that there will be.

But would anyone reject the benefits?

There is no doubt about this.

No one will refuse benefits - even a great sage will have his desires - it's just that the valve of his desires is much higher than that of ordinary people.

Ignat always insists on believing in one sentence: There is no truly noble person.

Those so-called nobility are just illusions released in order to seek more benefits.

"If Septimus causes an invasion, will that have any effect on us?"

Ignat asked without any emotion, as if he was chatting about family matters.

"Maybe we will join the war..."

"Maybe find a place to avoid the flames of war..."

Basilda said worriedly.

"If Septimus provokes a fight between wizards and Muggles, then he is likely to create news that some wizards are being persecuted by Muggles - if he is smarter, he may also find one or two among the Muggles. A demagogue, to incite Muggle hatred against wizards."

“And these things aren’t hard to find.”

"I heard that many wizards were indeed burned at the stake by Muggles as heretics - there were even real Muggles among them. It was simply too cruel."

Bascida, perhaps remembering that scene, paused, and then continued: "In another continent, there has been quite a bit of wizard trial activity - they claim that wizards are plotting to take over the entire world."

"As for the wizards, some people have already been unable to bear it. They believe that wizards should not hide and always hide in the darkness. They have inspired many wizards, and those ambitious people have formed quite a big group. power."

"The peace between Muggles and wizards is like a rainbow bubble ready to burst."

Bathida's tone was always full of worry.

However, it sounded to Igno that these things were not enough to shake the agreement between him and Septimus.

Besides, these are just speculations now.

In fact, Igno is more inclined to the position of Bonham, the founder of the magic hospital - Septimus will not start a war, and there is no greater benefit to him to rule.

However, the development of the situation is always difficult to control.

Although Septimus may not have the intention of provoking a war, he has a group of ambitious profiteers gathered under him.

They may start a war at any time and take advantage of the chaos to gain more benefits.

And Septimus was very likely to be unable to control it at that time - if a war broke out, it would be like a flood, and almost no one could reverse it.

"If a war does break out, which side should we be on?"

"Wizard? Or Muggle?"

Neil asked what he'd always wanted to ask.

Compared to Igno's indifference, Neil is obviously more concerned about the possibility of war.

In his opinion, he would definitely not be spared when the war broke out.Although many wizards think that the worst they can do is live in an uninhabited corner.

"That's a good question, Mr. Neal."

Filius muttered.

"The wizards will also be divided into two factions, if they are aggressive in nature."

"But once it develops into racial conflicts - when every wizard has to fight Muggles in order to survive, this is also the most terrifying time."

"No one is immune and no one is immune."

Basilida nodded beside her and continued following Filius' words.

"And Septimus is good at playing with political power. If he wants to provoke a war, he will definitely use this excuse."

"In this way, whether he wins or loses, he will be in a very high position, and the Malfoy family's reputation will reach its peak during this war."

"So, he is very likely to start a war."

At this time, the taste of persuasion in Bascida's mouth was already very strong.

She might have known about it for a long time, or she might have secretly mastered this piece of information about the agreement between Igno and Septimus.

It's just that she didn't mention it directly because of some feelings.

However, the subtle hints and persuasion in her words were all trying to pull Ignat into opposition to Septimus.

Igno has been silent, but the frequency of his drinking has increased little by little.

He is thinking.

Is it peace or war?

What if Bonham’s judgment was wrong?

If Septimus wants to start a war, should he join?It is certainly impossible for him to do nothing - the turmoil will make everyone struggle desperately.

Do you want to give up your current peaceful days?

I have to say that these days at Hogwarts were the happiest days after Ignat left school.

A warm house, a comfortable environment, and kind colleagues.

Everything in Hogwarts is so interesting.

If there really is a war, can Hogwarts be spared from it?

How long will the turmoil last?

Igno's heart was a little confused at this moment.

He felt that he was at a crossroads.

To the left, or to the right.

This is truly a problem of the century.
