Under the shimmering light from the fluorescent flashing charm on the wand, Ryan and the others took the book and exited the small building and restored everything to its original state. After that, the two walked towards the small building under the light Go to the exit of the town.

I don't know how the preparations for the Christmas Eve dinner in our manor are going today? Ryan said after taking a look at the brightly lit Weasley's house. The Weasley's family got a string of magical lanterns from nowhere and hung them on it. On my house, there is still a small Christmas tree in the small yard. Although a little shabby, it is full of warm atmosphere.

The Weasleys' house was not a special case. As long as there were occupants' rooms on the whole street, there was a warm light. At the same time, the whole street is filled with the aroma of various delicacies, and a warm feeling permeates everyone's heart.

I think those clever gentlemen should be able to surprise us. After sniffing the scent in the air, Hermione reached out and took Ryan's arm, Although we can't spend Christmas with our parents this year, But the six of us who live in the house are happy enough to have a little Christmas Eve dinner together.

After registering at the gate of the town, Ryan and the others left Hogsmeade, and when they walked along the path to a place where the townspeople could not see, Ryan returned to his manor through teleportation.

Walking into the hall of the manor, Ryan found that several Mr. Skillful Hands had already decorated the room with a festive atmosphere. The ceiling of the hall is already covered with colored strips and mistletoe, and there are small palm-sized lanterns shining in the middle. Four Christmas trees were also placed in the four corners of the house, and there were many decorations hanging on each Christmas tree.

And the big dining table in front of the fireplace has now been covered with a new snow-white linen tablecloth, five large and one small six sets of pure gold tableware are placed in front of the corresponding chairs, and there are several exquisite handicrafts in the center of the table. .

Master, can we start now? After changing clothes, a Mr. Skillful Hand floated in and asked Ryan. Everyone is almost ready, and the banquet can be held at any time.

Soon everyone in the family was sitting in their chairs. At the same time, the three Mr. Skillful Hands brought in all the delicacies prepared before and put them on the table. The plate was filled with fat and shiny roast goose, various barbecue meats neatly placed on the plate, and a small silver plate next to it. There are a variety of sauces in the menu, and a very fresh-looking vegetable salad served in a crystal plate.

May the war end as soon as possible, and I wish our future will be better and better. Ryan, as the host here, raised a piece of elf fruit wine and said, after the toast, everyone began to enjoy this sumptuous Christmas dinner. Everyone took turns to tell a light and funny little story, which swept away the unhappiness caused by the previous tense situation.

Ryan also got good news at the dinner table, that is, the two master wand makers can confirm that their loved ones are now hiding in a safe place that Voldemort cannot find, and it is worthwhile to receive news of their loved ones' safety during the festival. celebratory.

So when they left the table, both master wandmakers looked a little shaky from drinking too much wine. For this reason, Ryan specially called two robots to take care of the two elderly people.

The two wand masters told Ryan a lot about the past after drinking high, the most important of which was how the mysterious man and the Death Eaters rose. As people who had personally experienced the last war, their narration allowed Ryan to further understand many things about the last war. And some of the information has a certain guiding effect on the current war.

At the beginning of the last war, Voldemort only used his eloquence and appeal to promote anti-Muggle ideas through relatively peaceful means, and at the same time squeezed out those wizards. Although everyone was vigilant at this time, because there was no violence and the ethnic conflicts within the wizarding world at that time, except for Dumbledore's loud call for everyone to be vigilant,

No one stopped Voldemort's actions.

And when Voldemort gathered enough henchmen, they were naturally no longer satisfied with propaganda or achieving their goals through legal means. Soon, all kinds of violent incidents began to emerge one after another, and the war really broke out.

At the beginning, the Ministry of Magic even had a lot of initiative. Even though many Death Eaters were born in pure-blood families and received complete magic combat training, they are still lacking compared to the organized professional armed personnel trained by the Ministry of Magic.

But Voldemort's own power evened out all the gaps. As long as he appeared on the battlefield, both the Auror and the striker would be defeated at the touch of a finger. No matter how many advantages these professional armed personnel of the Ministry of Magic had, they could not hinder Voldemort's attack.

After each victory, Voldemort would kill those prisoners who refused to surrender, and at the same time, he and his subordinates would kill the relatives of these people. And through the terrifying atmosphere created in this way, Voldemort's side easily coerced more people to join the ranks of collaborators.

Later, as the strength increased like a snowball. The actions of the Death Eaters are also more daring, such as directly imposing the Imperius Curse on people, or recruiting various dark creatures. At the same time, the Aurors and strikers of the Ministry of Magic were also overwhelmed by Voldemort's brutal war methods. They fell into a semi-paralyzed state and basically did not dare to be enemies with those Death Eaters.

In this case, even Professor Dumbledore could not turn the tide of the battle. Because as the only wizard in England who could confront Voldemort head-on at that time, he had too many places and people to protect, which not only distracted his energy, but also made it impossible for him to arrive in time every time Voldemort attacked. on site.

Fortunately, in the end Voldemort made the wrong choice to murder Harry, who was still a baby, causing the death curse to bounce back on himself. And his temporary death also wiped out all the huge criminal organizations based on his strength in a very short period of time.

And the same is true of this war now. After the war started, Voldemort repeated his old tricks, attacking everywhere in an attempt to awaken people's memories of the horrible history. But Ryan's appearance changed all that.

It is different from Dumbledore, who was born in the wizarding world a hundred years ago, insisted on fighting habits between wizards and insisted on procedural justice. As a person who grew up in the modern, ordinary world for two lifetimes, Ryan's understanding of war is also that of ordinary people. Therefore, at the beginning of the war, Ryan took the elimination of the enemy's vitality and war potential as the only guide for action.

Therefore, his actions are very different from Dumbledore. He will try his best to kill as many enemies as possible in battle and destroy more resources belonging to the enemy instead of Dumbledore's tactics of limited force, especially before Dumbledore tends to tend to capture those enemies alive and give them judgment, and this practice of tying his hands and feet often leads to the escape of the enemy.

At the same time, the act of letting go of those innocent people out of humanitarianism in the previous actions also created a group of burdens for Voldemort's side that would only consume resources but could not provide any help, further weakening Voldemort's side's war potential.

From a certain point of view, what Ryan is doing now is very similar to what Voldemort did back then, except that the subject of the fear has been changed. And Voldemort will not be willing to risk his life to protect his own personnel and property like Dumbledore, which makes Ryan spread fear among the Death Eaters far faster than these Death Eaters spread fear in the magic world. .

And Ryan's strength made Voldemort completely afraid to take the initiative to change the situation of the war like he did in the last war, because he knew that as long as he was entangled for a little time to let Ryan and Dumbledore meet together, he would have to pay a lot even if he didn't die. the price.

So after the outbreak of the all-out war, Voldemort chose to hide and tried to use his own absolute advantage to slowly destroy his resisters. On the one hand, this approach made it impossible for Dumbledore and Ryan to lock his position and kill him. After all, it would be difficult for a wizard of this level to be caught if he deliberately avoided the battle.

But on the other hand, Voldemort's avoidance made many people see his decline, and the morale of both sides began to change slowly.

People on Ryan and his side no longer think that Voldemort is an invincible demon as they used to think. Although the Death Eaters are frightened by Voldemort's brutality and still obey his orders, most people's subjective initiative has dropped significantly. The behavior that used to take the initiative to go around basically no longer appeared.

Therefore, when the war broke out for three months, that is, after Ryan and the others completely participated in the war, the number of missing and dead people was greatly reduced compared to before. Ryan can proudly say that they have exchanged bloody battles for everyone. All the hardships and killings before this Christmas are worth it.
