The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 386 386. Dumbledore talks to Medea

"This statement is absurd."

Dumbledore did not agree with Medea's statement.

"We cannot unreasonably ask one person to sacrifice something for another. From the facts I know, Scott has done his best to help his friend."

He paused, and then said: "Of course, I contacted you not to discuss this with you, Ms. Slytherin, you shouldn't embarrass a child like this."

"I'm sorry, I'm not your student, Mr. Headmaster." Medea said coldly.

Dumbledore did not respond to her sarcasm, but said: "I want to talk to you about the current situation in the wizarding world, Ma'am."

"Oh?" Medea seemed to have some interest, "What do you want to talk about?"

"I hope that you and the wizards who join you can, as you said, really focus on striving for a better future for wizards."

Dumbledore said earnestly.

"The Ministry of Magic is about to fall apart. Most people are fighting for the sake of fighting, and they don't even have the heart to do their job. I have to say that this will not bring a better future for wizards."

Scott and Professor Flitwick were a little surprised to hear him say this.

Because they knew very well that Medea's slogan was just a slogan. She was not fighting for a better future. She just wanted to change the destiny of more people recorded in the [Book of History].

Is Dumbledore playing coy with Medea?

"You are right. It's my fault."

What's more unexpected is that Medea also admitted her mistake straightforwardly.

Is it that the banner of "for a better future" cannot fall?

"You know very well what the factional struggles in the Ministry of Magic are all about." Medea said again, "So I have a good suggestion."

"Please speak." Dumbledore said politely.

Medea said, "Tom is the biggest destabilizing factor in the British magic world, isn't he? After all, he advocates pure blood supremacy and cannot treat all wizards equally."

Dumbledore responded calmly, "Tom's existence will indeed affect peace."

"Then let's join hands to get rid of him." Medea suggested, "Get rid of Tom's banner of pure bloodism and completely suppress those stubborn forces that only look at bloodline. Only in this way can the magic world usher in better development."

Scott saw Dumbledore shook his head, obviously, he did not agree with Medea's proposal.

"I really want to get rid of Tom. He is a dark wizard with great crimes. Over the years, he has brought pain and fear to many people."

His tone became a little heavy.

"But I will never join forces with you, Ms. Slytherin."

Medea laughed.

"You look down on me, Mr. Principal." She said with a smile, "Because I am not a good person in the traditional sense, and I have even done many bad things that people think can be called vicious."

Dumbledore shook his head again.

"That's not the main reason," he said. "I don't require everyone to be noble."

"Why is that?"

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Medea seemed a little curious.

"Because you can't treat everyone equally." Dumbledore said, "You don't value the bloodline of wizards like Voldemort does, but you value ability, and your philosophy is that talent is supreme."

"Excuse me, is there anything wrong with advocating the concept of talent supremacy?" Medea asked.

Scott could hear from her tone that she really didn't understand what was wrong with her philosophy.

Dumbledore began to talk about his point of view.

"I know that everyone is different. Everyone has huge differences in appearance, bloodline, ability, personality, etc."

"But I want to say that everyone should be equal in personality."

"Even the weakest people have the right to survive."

"We should protect this right."

"This is the difference between humans and beasts."

"Beasts only know how to survive, and we know how to love."

"I understand what you mean, you are right." Medea's voice came out again from the small fireplace, "but this is not practical."

Without waiting for Dumbledore to say anything else, she continued to express her views.

"If we want to promote the development of the entire society, we must first ensure that talented people can get a better future."

"The weak and incompetent should accept the leadership of talented people. When they can't keep up, they will be eliminated. There is nothing we can do about it."

"We should see the whole."

"I think some sacrifices are even necessary."

"We can even take the initiative to remove some impurities to make the wizard as a whole stronger."

No matter what Medea's real purpose is, Scott, who is in the principal's office at this moment, can hear that what she said is from the heart.

After listening to her, Dumbledore just replied, "Ordinary people are the majority."

"Most ordinary people are like sheep without a sheepdog to watch over them," Medea retorted.

"Mr. Headmaster," she said, "Do you think that you, a powerful man known as the greatest wizard of this century, and a witch who only knows how to wash pots and dishes all day, have the same value to wizards as a whole?"

Dumbledore said seriously: "I don't think I am any different from a witch who only knows how to wash pots and dishes. That witch may sound like an ordinary wife and an ordinary mother, but she can give her The best love from a husband and children.”

Medea was silent for a while after hearing this.

But she wasn't convinced by Dumbledore.

"I realize that none of us can convince anyone, Mr. Principal." She said in a cold tone, "Then let everyone see whose theory can bring a better future to the magical world."

After saying that, she took the initiative to disconnect the fireplace.

Dumbledore saw the green flame in the small fireplace extinguished, shook his head and sighed.

"Why are you telling her this, Albus, this lady obviously has difficulty reaching a consensus with us." Professor Flitwick said aloud.

"I want to know what's really going on in her heart," Dumbledore said. "I want to know whether everything she did was just following her father's orders, or whether there was also her own will in it."

Professor Flitwick said: 'Obviously the woman herself was not thinking kindly.'

Dumbledore nodded, "Although the standards are different, both this lady and Voldemort are equally keen on classifying people into different levels."

As he spoke, he shook his head again.

"If this continues, the Ministry of Magic will become worse and worse." Professor Flitwick added.

Then, neither professor spoke, and the atmosphere in the principal's office became a little solemn.

Scott looked at the two professors and did not speak rashly.

Of course, he didn't think he could say anything thought-provoking in this regard.

After all, his political education experience was only in the middle school classroom in his previous life, and most of that knowledge was returned to the teacher after the college entrance examination.

As for college?

All Scott remembers is that his politics class in college was an open-book exam.

Just as Scott was trying to remember his past life, Dumbledore spoke again.

"Sorry, Scott, this old guy like me almost forgot."

Scott quickly put away his memories.

"About Mr. Carrow," Dumbledore said, "Mr. Scrimgeour, Director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic, has taken him away and notified the Rolle family who were also victims."

"Do I need to go to the Ministry of Magic to testify at his trial?" Scott asked.

"That's exactly what I'm telling you."

Dumbledore smiled.

"I have been notified that due to the urgency of the Rolle family, the case regarding Mr. Carlo will be heard in court next Friday morning. At that time, I will take you to the Ministry of Magic to testify."

"Oh, you can definitely testify this time." Professor Flitwick said a little guiltily, "I'm sorry, Scott, what I said to you didn't come true last time when you were attacked by Carlo."

Scott said quickly: "It's not your fault, Professor."

He didn't want to see Professor Flitwick feel guilty because of his own affairs. The professor was already good enough to him.

Moreover, Professor Flitwick is a purer professor than Dumbledore. Because he has never been involved in politics, he is indeed powerless on some matters.

"Then, that's the end of today's conversation." Dumbledore smiled at Scott again, "Ms. Ravenclaw has already said that you don't need to go to her class today. Maybe you need to relax for a day. ”

"Ms. Ravenclaw is right. You don't need to go to Professor Barbling's place this afternoon, and you don't need to go to my place in the evening. You can go play with your friends." Professor Flitwick smiled more kindly at him.

He looked at Scott like he was looking at a poor child.

Although Scott wanted to say that he didn't need to relax and just wanted to study, he still accepted the kindness of his tutors and professors and left the principal's office after thanking him.

What a coincidence, Scott thought, that he had just accepted the advice to relax when he met these two living treasures.

As he walked out of the castle, he saw the Weasley twins scurrying around the atrium like two bludgers.

Each of them held a monocular telescope in his hand, looking at the sky and the ground for a while, looking very busy.

Soon, the two stopped at the same time and pointed the lenses of their telescopes at Scott.

"Oh! Scott!" Fred said in a showy tone.

George shook the monocular in his hand in response, "See what this is?"

"Monocular?" Scott walked up to the two of them.

"No!" Fred raised his chin high and announced loudly, "It's a magic camera!"

"We succeeded!" George raised his hands excitedly.

"Is this it?" Scott looked at the "monocular telescope" in the hands of the two people with a puzzled look. "What is the difference between the magic camera you invented and the panoramic telescope? Is there a tube missing?"
