Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

“Mr. Wilson, here is your visa and wand permit.” An official from the Department of Magical Transportation handed Anduin the completed documents, and then gave him two pieces of parchment separately, “This is a list of Floo Network usage, please keep it. It records the list of public fireplaces in East and West Germany respectively. The Floo Networks in East and West Germany are not interconnected, I don’t know if you are aware of this?”

“I was informed beforehand, thank you.” Anduin put away his documents, then helplessly took the two Floo Network lists, and then walked out of the Portkey Office.

He had completed his visa at the German Ministry of Magic, but looking at the two very real Floo Network lists, he still felt quite absurd.

Being in Germany, not being able to directly travel from one side to the other using the Floo Network was truly magical.

At the same time, during the process of completing the formalities, he also took the time to carefully observe the Department of Magical Transportation. Now, in this department of the Ministry of Magic, there are actually two offices in each department.

The Floo Network Administration he passed by earlier was the East German office. When he was wandering around with Fusa, he also discovered another West German office, which was, of course, filled with noise.

From the current situation of the Department of Magical Transportation, it can already be seen from the side that although the German Ministry of Magic is still nominally unified, it is already showing a trend of division.

“I don’t understand anything now, and the situation is quite unclear, I still have to collect enough information first.” Anduin thought to himself, and then left the Department of Magical Transportation.

But after returning to the hall of the German Ministry of Magic, Anduin did not leave directly, but went straight to the fireplace in the hall, he had to find a place to stay first.

“East Duden Building!”

After shouting in the fireplace, Anduin disappeared into the flames.

Duden Building, as Germany's main commercial center, has 7 floors, each with thousands of square meters of space. Perhaps from the outside, it looks like an ordinary small building, but after entering, you will find that it is something else entirely.

There are all kinds of shops here, and the variety of shops is comparable to Diagon Alley in England.

And when he was in it, Anduin felt like he was in a large shopping mall he had visited before, except that now, very incongruously, a wall appeared in the mall, directly cutting the building in half.

On each floor, this wall is equipped with an always open door, people can directly see the situation on the opposite side through the door, and no one is guarding it, it seems that it can be passed through at will.

When Anduin personally tried to cross the door, he found that there were no obstacles.

However, Anduin could feel a special magical wave sweeping over him, and at the same time, the area marked on his visa became: Germany (West Germany), and when he walked back, it changed back to Germany (East Germany).

So the wall's greater role is to divide the East and West German regions, but it does not completely prohibit the movement and exchange of wizards on both sides, of course, a wall can't really prohibit anything for wizards.

However, the sensitive Anduin understood that the impact of doing so was actually great.

Dividing the Duden Building with a wall, prohibiting the Floo Network on both sides from interacting, although it does not actually play any role, this behavior is actually constantly labeling German wizards!

Are you East German or West German?

Are you entering East German territory or West German territory?

This constant suggestion to wizards will subtly change their definition and identity.

Initially, a German wizard would think of himself as German, but now he may clearly identify himself as either East German or West German.

Even the young witch Fusa he met at the Ministry of Magic before, although she herself was not optimistic that Germany would completely split, when she introduced herself, she also said that she was East German, not German.

“Using this soft separation to gradually accustom the people to the state of division, until they completely reject the wizards on the other side? That Minister Peter has a political mind, unlike what Fusa said, ‘strange’.” Anduin muttered to himself after observing.

And after Anduin wandered around the completely undefended wall for a long time, he did not see anyone actively crossing the door. It seems that the Ministry of Magic's strategy has taken effect, and everyone has become accustomed to living on ‘their side’.

Silently shaking his head, Anduin crossed the door again and returned to the East German side, then walked into a bar directly opposite the door.

“Boy, we don’t welcome West Germans here, I advise you not to cause trouble here!” A wizard sitting at the door of the bar, holding a glass of wine in his hand, shouted at Anduin.

“Which eye of yours saw that I am West German?” Anduin glanced at the drunk speechlessly.

“I watched you come from ‘the door’, I’m not blind, if you’re not West German, who is?” Seeing that this kid dared to talk back, he stood up from the bench at the door, approached Anduin with a dissatisfied face, and glared at him fiercely.

“Then you should consider taking your eyes off, washing them, and putting them back on, or you can ask me to help you, I guarantee that your vision will not be affected in any way except for pain.” Anduin glared back at the unreasonable wizard, while faintly releasing ‘Fear Charm’ in his eyes.

The wizard affected by the Fear Charm only felt as if he was being stared at by a dragon, and involuntarily took two steps back, but soon he was annoyed by his cowardly behavior, and embarrassedly and angrily touched his body, seemingly preparing to take out his wand and give the person in front of him a good look.

But he was obviously a little drunk. After touching his body a few times, he still couldn't find his wand, while Anduin looked at the other party with a sneer.

Anduin would not take the initiative to attack, but as long as the other party dared to cast a spell on him, he would guarantee that the fool in front of him would experience the taste of becoming a snot.

“Enough, Wiem, you’re drunk, don’t embarrass yourself here.”

Before Anduin could ‘defend himself’ successfully, a male wizard in his thirties, short but quite sturdy, rushed out of the bar, grabbed the drunkard called Wiem, and turned his head with an apologetic look.

“I'm sorry, sir, Wiem's mind is not very good after he gets drunk, he didn't mean to offend you.”

“Don’t stop me, Feng, this kid is a West German, he is obviously here to provoke, watch me smash his nose!” Drunk Wiem still couldn't find his wand, but his mouth was still merciless.

“You idiot, didn’t you see that people are waiting for you to make a move, so they can teach you a lesson in a justified manner, and this gentleman is obviously not a local, he is not someone you can afford to offend!” The short, sturdy wizard whispered angrily in Wiem's ear, and then pressed the other party back to the bench.

“Really? Don't lie to me, ‘Tiger Wiem’ is not easy to mess with. The last time a group of West German bastards came to make trouble, I took the lead in driving them away!” Wiem also lowered his voice after hearing this, and muttered softly.

“Yes, yes, yes, you are the most amazing. Last time, it was all thanks to you for driving away those troublemakers. You were definitely not knocked away with one move, and you were also stuck to the ceiling with the ‘Glue Charm’.” The short, sturdy wizard comforted him speechlessly.

Anduin raised his eyebrows slightly as he watched this farce. Although the other party's voice was very small, he still heard the conversation between the two clearly with his keen senses.

This man in front of me is a little unusual, did he recognize my details at a glance? Anduin thought for a while, and did not step forward to make things difficult for the wizard. He wouldn't argue with a drunk.

After comforting Wiem, the short, sturdy wizard walked up to Anduin, humbly took off his hat, “I'm very sorry, sir, I made you laugh. Although Wiem has a bad temper, he is not a bad person, please don't argue with him, I am willing to buy you a drink as an apology.”

“He offended me, why are you apologizing? Is he your relative?” Anduin asked back noncommittally.

“No, he has nothing to do with me, he is just a friend who often drinks with me. Wiem is a winemaker at ‘Dino Magic Winery’. His Flame Whiskey is a well-known good wine, and it is even sold overseas.” The short, sturdy wizard smiled apologetically.

“Okay, let’s go inside and talk.” Anduin saw that this strange wizard seemed to recognize him, so the other party must not simply want to apologize for the drunk.

“Please come in!”

The short, sturdy wizard opened the door and politely let Anduin in, then found an empty table in the corner and ordered him a glass of light wine.

“Did that ‘Tiger Wiem’ call you ‘Feng’? I don’t seem to have met you before, but you seem to know me?” Anduin didn’t like to speak in riddles, and asked very directly.

“As expected of the founder of Silver Flash Trading Company, the youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin, Second Class, and the recipient of the Gold Medal for Pioneering Contribution to the International Alchemical Conference, the famous British ‘Fighting Hero’ Anduin Wilson, I didn’t expect you to see that I know you at a glance.”

After Feng rattled off a series of Anduin's titles, he introduced himself very politely, “My name is Feng, that's my full name, you can just call me Feng, I am very honored to meet you here.”

Looking at the other party calmly reporting his information, Anduin did not show the slightest dissatisfaction or surprise, but he still felt a little surprised in his heart.

Although Anduin is now considered a celebrity in England, it is not surprising that someone can recognize him, but he asked himself that he was not famous to this point.

Someone in Germany actually knows his details, although it's mostly public information, but the ‘Fighting Hero’ thing happened several years ago, I didn’t expect Feng to even know that.
