Hogwarts: I am the White Lord
Chapter 282: Land of the Free?
Almost all the young wizards stopped what they were doing and looked in unison towards the corridor.
Following everyone's gaze, Harry was surprised to find that Professor Snape had changed his usual black robe into a well-tailored dark suit. He looked completely different.
The suit was made of fine texture; the inky black fabric fitted his slender figure perfectly, highlighting his slightly stern temperament.
Under the high collar was a white shirt and a tie that was tied neatly, which contrasted sharply with his black hair and slightly pale skin.
Compared to his usual image of fluttering black robes, he now looked more serious and steady, and from a distance he looked like a movie star from the Muggle world.
Harry kept rubbing his eyes, as if he suspected that he had seen the wrong person;
Hermione covered her mouth silently, obviously finding Snape's appearance difficult to digest;
Even the noisy Ron and Malfoy couldn't help swallowing their saliva. It was obvious that the impact of this scene was a bit too much for them.
Everyone was shocked by Snape's outfit, their eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.
Is this really Professor Snape?
This outfit is so cool!
How come I never realized that Professor Snape had such a handsome side?
Damn it, it must be because the black robe he usually wears hides his good looks.
The students' noise became louder and louder, and finally turned into some strange slogans.
"Professor Snape, you look so handsome in this outfit. We like it so much!"
"Professor Snape, could you please destroy all those black robes with a spell?"
"Professor, please dress according to this standard in the future. We love to see it!"
"Professor, please use a spell to weld this suit to my body permanently, please!"
Listening to the noise of the students, the corners of Snape's mouth twitched slightly.
Although he looked expressionless and stern on the surface, he had actually already started cursing at Sebastian in his heart.
Bastard swan!
Deliberately making oneself look bad in public.
He insisted that his black robe looked weird in a Muggle airport and that he might be caught by the Muggle police as a terrorist.
If I hadn't believed in his lies, I wouldn't have to wear this inappropriate suit and endure the gazes and teasing of the students.
Damn it, this bastard still has the nerve to laugh!
Come on, while there is still time, let’s go to the duel hall and have a fight. I’ll punish you without any curses.
Snape suppressed the urge to teach Sebastian a lesson, walked to Sebastian with an expressionless face, and spoke in a calm tone as much as possible.
"It's getting late, why don't you leave as soon as possible!"
Sebastian did not say anything to provoke Snape's fragile nerves. Instead, he grinned and called the students to the school gate and boarded the knight bus that had been waiting there.
As soon as they got on the car, Sebastian collected the students' magic wands and used the car's magic TV to demonstrate to everyone the process of taking an airplane and various precautions.
For a moment, several students felt as if they had come to a Muggle Studies class.
...................
Sitting in the first class of the plane, the students explored everything around them with curiosity.
They pressed their faces against the windows, watching the night view of London shrinking, their eyes filled with irrepressible curiosity and excitement.
Harry kept comparing airplanes and broomsticks, and finally came to a firm conclusion.
In terms of excitement, the flying broom is obviously more exciting.
But airplanes fly much higher than broomsticks, and in terms of comfort, broomsticks cannot even compare to horses.
He glanced at Percy and Penelope who were openly showing off their love, smiled slightly, and then concentrated on studying the facilities on the plane.
Before the little wizards' excitement died down, they heard Sebastian's voice.
"Everyone, please note that our destination this time is the American wizarding world."
"Due to the particularity of the American wizarding world, I will briefly introduce the local customs and various precautions here."
Through Sebastian's explanation, the little wizards gradually learned that in the 17th century, European wizards began to immigrate to North America together with Muggles.
At that time, the overall size of the American wizarding community was still small, and there was no form of magical government.
Therefore, some wizards from different countries became mercenaries or bounty hunters, and they called themselves Scourers.
Their name for Muggles also changed to No-Maj.
With no restraint, the Scourers began to exploit their position for personal gain, illegally arresting and torturing innocent wizards, and even handing wizards over to No-Maj trials in exchange for bounties or lands.
During the Salem Witch Trials, the Purgers' behavior became increasingly insane. Not only did they sell out wizards, they also sold No-Maj's to the church as wizards. This behavior caused widespread dissatisfaction in the wizarding community.
Under the influence of the Salem incident, the Magical Congress of the United States was established, and the behavior of the Purgers was finally restricted.
MACUSA took severe measures and began to crack down on the illegal activities of the Purgers. Many Purgers were arrested or executed.
Of course, many of the Scourers managed to escape capture, and they started to form families with No-Majs, hiding among the No-Majs population forever.
In order to hide their identities as purgers, they would even abandon children with magical talents, leaving only offspring without magic.
Some vengeful Scourers would even tell future generations that wizards were real and should be eliminated once discovered.
Later, a witch named Dorcas became infatuated with a descendant of the Scourers, which almost led to the complete exposure of the American wizarding world to the eyes of the No-Maj.
In order to prevent similar incidents from happening, the Magical Congress of the United States directly enacted the Rappaport Law to completely separate the wizarding world and the No-Maj society.
Hearing this, the little wizards couldn't believe their ears.
They had only heard that the environment in the American wizarding world was somewhat perverted, but they had never imagined it to be this perverted.
Although this strict law has been repealed, some strange policies remain.
prohibiting wizards and No-Majs from marrying each other;
It is forbidden to make friends with No-Maj;
Wizarding households cannot keep magical pets;
A permit is required to carry a wand so that MACUSA can track all magical activity and identify the perpetrators by their wands.
Any violation of these policies will be a serious crime, and serious offenders may even be sentenced to death.
In the professor's words, they claim to be upholding humanitarianism and letting the prisoners die painlessly.
Mr. Newt Scamander almost lost his life there, but he finally made up for it by helping to capture Grindelwald and left the free land alive.
After listening to Sebastian's explanation, the excitement of the little wizards about going to the American wizarding world completely disappeared.
The land of the free?!
Merlin's big pants.
What kind of freedom is this? I can't even breathe freely there.
Before going to sleep, they made up their minds.
No matter what, I will stay away from this land in the future.
