Hogwarts Life Guide

When talking about the past events in New York, we have to mention another pair of nouns - Obscurus and Obscurus.

The Obscurus was formed under very specific circumstances: trauma related to magic use, an inner hatred of one's own magic and a conscious attempt to suppress it.When a young wizard begins to suppress their magical powers, but due to lack of guidance, they do not learn to harness and control their powers, creating a dark, parasitic magical force called the Obscurus.Such a child is called an Obscurus. When an Obscurus faces an emotional and mental breakdown point, the Obscurus may lose control of their body and release the Obscurus in their body. In extreme cases, Their bodies may transform directly into the Obscurus.

Moreover, it is usually difficult for an Obscural to live beyond the age of ten.In the dark ages of the past, obscurs were not uncommon due to the pursuit of Muggles. However, with the establishment of various magic schools, the occurrence of obscurs became less and less. In order to prevent young wizards with magical talents from being missed, Back then, the founder of Hogwarts designed special magic detection props, and every child with magical talents would be recorded by the props when they were born.But there are really few things in the world that are foolproof, even if the designers of this magic item are the four greatest wizards from thousands of years ago.

However, since modern times, as Muggles have become more and more enlightened, Obscurus has not appeared for an unknown amount of time.

Unfortunately, in 1926, despite the fact that the then president of the Magical Congress of the United States, Serafina Piccoli, repeatedly emphasized that the Obscurus had completely disappeared in the United States, she was soon taken by Grindelwald with an Obscurus. The author personally slapped him in the face.

It was a very powerful Obscurus. He struggled to survive to adulthood under the torture of the Obscurus. Under the guidance of Grindelwald, he finally transformed into the Obscurus and destroyed half of New York. This was since the implementation of the International Secrecy Act. The largest leak, almost everyone in the city saw the Obscurus destroying the city.

Fortunately, there was no such thing as a live broadcast on the Internet, otherwise the United States Ministry of Magic at the time would not have been able to cover up this incident through a rain that erased memories.

After Dumbledore finished speaking, Tangning was still immersed in shock. Grindelwald was indeed the first generation Dark Lord.

However, when comparing vertically, I always feel that Voldemort, as the second generation Dark Lord, is a little... less popular than Grindelwald?After all, after Grindelwald finished his work in Europe, he also went to New York to make a strong presence. In comparison, Riddle-san looks like a sneaky white terror...

"But Professor Dumbledore, what is Grindelwald's purpose in doing this?" Tangning asked again.

Dumbledore did not answer directly. He asked instead: "Who do you think the International Statute of Secrecy is used to protect?"

Tangning did not rush to answer. In fact, when Dumbledore spoke, he had already realized Grindelwald's most direct purpose - to reveal the existence of the magical world to Muggles.

What confused Tangning the most was why Grindelwald would do this. In fact, after the Basilisk incident, Tangning went out of her way to look up Grindelwald's deeds before he was imprisoned. Although it was not detailed, for example, this paragraph He didn't even know about the Battle of New York, but if the records in the book were accurate, Grindelwald was still in a state of embarrassment in 1926, and his army of 'saints' had not yet taken shape.

Generally speaking, the starting point for making big news about an existence like the Dark Lord in the wizarding world is easily associated with world domination, either ruling the wizarding world or ruling Muggles as well.

In fact, Grindelwald, who was jointly wanted by the Ministry of Magic of various countries at that time, did not have as much power that year as he would have more than ten years later. In this case, Grindelwald's deeper purpose is worth pondering!

Thinking like this, Tangning suddenly came back to her senses and noticed that Dumbledore was still in front of him!

"I think the International Statute of Secrecy is used to protect young wizards. Young wizards are no more vulnerable than Muggles before they learn to master magic. Professor, does Grindelwald have a different view?"

"I still remember what Grindelwald said when he questioned Ms. Serafina. She emphasized this sentence in her letter to me, 'The law makes us like rats in the sewer! The law requires us to hide the truth. Self! That law makes those under its jurisdiction cower in fear, lest we will reveal our identities! Let me ask you, Mr. Chairman - let me ask you - who is this law trying to protect? Is it us? Or is it us? Them? I refuse to succumb to it any longer. 'In that era, this sentence was really bewitching!" Dumbledore said with emotion.

So, Grindelwald used Obscurus to destroy half of New York just to gain fame?

The city will play!

At this time, Tangning didn't have much awareness of the existence of the International Secrecy Law. He was not a young wizard who simply didn't understand the Muggle world.What's more, the magical world he knew was so mysterious. He had never had any objection to the law of secrecy, or he was used to this kind of magical world.

Maybe it's because of the different times. After all, it's not the war-torn environment it was in the last half century. Even though Voldemort's threat is imminent, he has been silent for more than ten years. This also makes many wizards simply deceive themselves and comfort themselves that Voldemort will not come back.

The doubtful come, the doubtful leave.

Of course, before Tangning left, Dumbledore did not forget to tell Tangning the standard answer to the question of the meaning of the International Secrecy Act.Simply put, it is for love and justice...ah bah bah!The International Statute of Secrecy ensures the sustainable development of the wizarding world, allowing the wizarding world and the Muggle world to be closely connected but separated from each other and not affecting each other. The value of the Statute of Secrecy is not only to protect wizards, but also to protect Muggles. I would like to emphasize that this is a must-take exam this year.

Well... although the way to protect Muggles is probably the Oblivion Charm and the result of making them not worry about magic, because Muggles don't know the existence of magic at all.

Back in the dormitory, Tangning was thinking about how to convince cousin Tonks to accompany him to New York.Since Dumbledore said he could go, Tangning felt it wouldn't be a big problem as he quite trusted the principal.

But after thinking about it, Tangning suddenly realized that he probably didn't need to think about how to convince cousin Tonks. He could just put the map in front of her, mention the relationship between the map and Dumbledore, and hint at the relationship between the map and the map. Given the historical events, it is estimated that cousin Tonks will force him to go to New York.

And with Mrs. Tonks here, Tangning wasn't afraid that Cousin Tonks would leave him to kill the donkey...ah, burning the bridge across the river.The reason why Tang Ning thought about this insurance was actually because of the shadow of her past childhood!

Thinking about it this way, it’s so satisfying.

The eventful Sunday was finally over. In the evening, Fred and George returned to the auditorium for dinner, but Tangning didn't see Harry. He soon guessed the reason, because Ron Not far away, he complained to Neville that Harry probably liked living in the campus hospital.

It seemed that Harry really cherished the time he spent with Sirius.

However, there were some abnormalities in the two professors dining at the teachers' table. The most obvious one was Professor Lu Ping. Professor Lu Ping usually gave people a vague impression of sadness, but now he seemed to be relaxed. On the contrary, Professor Snape was obviously absent-minded. The force with which he cut the steak with his knife and fork showed that he was not actually calm in his heart.
