Natural Magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 300: The wizarding world takes sides

A strong light shone out and spread instantly, forming a barrier that enveloped Hogwarts.

It continued to spread, and slowly, the entire Forbidden Forest, Black Lake, and Hogwarts Castle were protected.

"I used the Forbidden Forest Contract and magic to hide Hogwarts. Now, except for the principal and dean of Hogwarts, no one can open the entrance. You can get enough safety by staying here."

The strong magical aura was slowly incorporated into the Forbidden Forest Contract, cutting off Hogwarts from the outside world.

Even the access to the outside world is blocked off.

There is no way for the outside world to use teleportation magic to get in.

Except for Bree's notes, of course.

The hustle and bustle between the young wizards and professors was over. McGonagall, who was watching silently, felt that Bree had already developed the demeanor as the principal of Hogwarts and that he could handle big things.

The burden placed on Mag's body suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Buzzing..." There was a vibration in the barrier. It was an owl, and they were also isolated.

"Trouble Mr. Hagrid to build an owl wigwam at the barrier entrance on the other side of the lake, and I will leave all future correspondence to you."

"This will take you some time. Just go there in the morning, noon and afternoon every day."

"If there is a little wizard delivering a letter, it needs to be handed over to you to ensure smooth communication of information."

When Hagrid heard Bree's voice, he immediately said: "It's no trouble, I can handle it. Don't worry, Professor Oded."

Here, Bree also waved the owl in, and he had to watch some of it until the shack was built.

"Chirp!" The figure of the phoenix arrived with the owl, and it landed in front of Newt.

Newt quickly took the letter.

After reading the letter, Newt immediately said to Bree: "Sorry, Professor Old, I think I have to leave Hogwarts. I like it here very much, but I have more important things to do."

"I'll get you out, Professor Newt," Breed said.

At the beginning, Dumbledore trained Newt and guided Newt against Grindelwald.

Perhaps in the eyes of Dumbledore, Newt is an excellent savior, a successful case he cultivated.

At this time, Newt also fulfilled his obligation dutifully to confront Grindelwald, who chose to leave Nurmengard and began to cause chaos.

Waiting for Bree to put Newt on the express train leaving Hogwarts...

A figure appeared in a trance.

"Dumbledore, you haven't been back for a long time."

Bree greeted Dumbledore, but Dumbledore frowned.

Staring at Bree.

a long time.

He said solemnly: "I'm not sure what you want to do."

The words changed.

"But I choose to believe you. The wizarding world has proven Grindelwald's failure and my powerlessness."

As he spoke, Dumbledore looked at Bree's expression that remained unchanged after hearing the words, and that indifferent smile was hard to see through.

He is obviously a kind figure, but he is so distant and unable to get close.

"You have grown up, Mr. Bree." Dumbledore finally smiled helplessly and shook his head to end this self-report.

"I'm looking forward to the future of the wizarding world."

After speaking, Dumbledore left here.

Smart Dumbledore.

But he still had to follow the path that Bree had laid out for him.

Dumbledore once said to find the weaknesses in others in life.

Bree found it.

Not just Dumbledore, but also Grindelwald, Voldemort...

After Dumbledore left, the entire Hogwarts disappeared from the eyes of the wizarding world. The only place where they could communicate was an owl loft next to Hogsmeade.

But just like an agreement, no force invades this place.

……

Grindelwald unveiled the wizarding world, which had a huge impact. The top leaders of the Muggle world tried their best to prevent wizards from appearing in the world of the lower classes.

Officials from the Ministry of Magic also took a large number of actions to prevent Grindelwald's Saints organization from continuing to take action.

Unfortunately, the effect is weak.

Grindelwald's sphere of influence was so wide that Saint Action broke out across Europe and the United States at the same time.

The Ministry of Magic in various places is exhausted, and the lack of information exchange makes it useless for the Aurors to work hard.

However, when the Muggle officials defined the Saints as a terrorist group and dispatched various types of lethal weapons.

The situation turned around and the Saints were losing ground.

There were so many Muggles that even the Imperius Curse couldn't advance Operation Saint.

These high-ranking Muggles seemed to have specialized in magic, making it difficult for the saints to make any progress.

The situation suddenly stalemate.

German Muggle High-Level Meeting——

"Quick, cut off the news from this newspaper and arrest everyone!"

A roar erupted from the meeting, but no one around him was frightened by such a voice. They were all decision-makers, and the ones who should really be afraid were the journalists who were cheating!
"Catch those 'terrorists' on a small scale, find their territory, and destroy it with heavy weapons!"

Some people made such a decision, while others raised questions: "These people were saints decades ago. Back then..."

"Stop talking, this matter is confidential."

Someone stopped him.

"I know what you want to say. Some wizards did not participate in their activities, but they are all wizards. We cannot guarantee that they will not participate in the future!"

"Those wizards are not good people either, they are worms who don't pay taxes!"

……

News of a large number of Muggle attacks on wizarding residences appeared on the front pages of wizarding circles in various countries.

The cruel words of blood are shocking.

And this momentum has gradually spread to the British wizarding world.

The wizards who heard the news hid their homes, moved and fled.

The British Ministry of Magic seemed very passive because of such a turbulent situation. In times of panic, the Ministry of Magic could not control the behavior of wizards.

Even the Ministry of Magic must find its own future...

Stand in line!

The Ministry of Magic, which does not have top strength, is a collection of interests, and they do not even have a unified idea.

Taking sides is their inevitable choice.

But now the world is in chaos, and people in the Ministry of Magic are shaking and confused.

Inside the British Ministry of Magic——

Fudge paced anxiously in the office, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he was gritting his teeth nervously.

"I can't let it end like this."

Fudge made his decision.

He raised his hand and looked at the Death Eater mark on his arm.

"Without the position of minister, I can only become a victim."

Fudge is very aware of the current position given to him by Voldemort - a minister with some right to speak on the surface.

"Go call the division chiefs!" Fudge shouted outside.

"Don't call the Department of Mysteries, they'll be on guard!" Fudge reminded loudly.

Not long after, everyone from the Ministry of Magic except the Department of Mysteries arrived.

Fudge got straight to the point: "I know you have your own opinions."

Fudge looked at each director.

These directors come from various forces, of course, the most extreme purebloods. This is the price Fudge paid for betraying Dumbledore and choosing to gain the support of ultrapurebloods.

"Now everyone has seen the situation in the wizarding world. Because of Grindelwald's actions, the wizard protection law is in name only. Wizards are all in danger, and Muggles are pointing their weapons at us..."

The meeting was somewhat silent. They had deceived themselves for too long and arrogantly despised Muggles, but when everything came, they became more frightened.

The directors were waiting for Fudge's order.

Taking sides is no small matter.

"There are no saints in England yet," Fudge added.

This is also the reason why Britain is quieter than other countries, but as the war spreads, the British Muggle community also becomes defensive.

"No, Connelly, the saints are starting to come." The Minister of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement said seriously to Fudge.

"what!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Don't forget, I'm from Godric's Hollow." The Minister of Magical Law Enforcement smiled.

"I choose to follow Grindelwald."

Fudge looked at him in disbelief, pointed at him and said: "You choose Grindelwald, you are ridiculous, you want to finish playing with Godric's Hollow!"

Fudge was furious, but not because of other people's lives, but because of Godric's Hollow's attitude.

Here, the director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters obviously expected such a thing.

"Aurors are free. Even if you are their superior, you cannot stop them from choosing another team."

The rest of the directors also agreed.

The Director of the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic smiled and said: "I just expressed my and Godric's Hollow's attitude."

"And your subordinates may not necessarily be of the same mind as you."

After speaking, he turned to leave.

"These white wizards!" Fudge gritted his teeth.

The two directors of the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures and the Department of Magical Transportation looked at each other. Most of them were Hufflepuff students, and it was impossible for them to join the extreme pure-blood camp.

They both said: "Let's leave first, this is not our meeting."

"Wait." Fudge stopped them.

"Are you sure you want to go find Dumbledore? Why don't you stay here... Lord Voldemort has changed..."

"Sorry." Upon hearing Voldemort, the two of them turned cold.

Fudge is self-proclaimed.

But Fudge had no scruples, and the other directors also acquiesced in this choice.

Purebloods can't go to the battlefield by themselves, so of course they need a weapon that can be pushed out.

After there were only extremely pure-blooded people in the meeting, Fudge said: "Remove those people from their positions and make the Ministry of Magic completely our territory."

This is Fudge's only purpose of this meeting, to make the Ministry of Magic simple and let him continue to lead it!
The rest of the people had no objection to this proposal, but began to think about the interests of these positions.

But someone also raised a question.

"Who will resist the Saints and the Muggles?"

Voldemort?
Ultra-pure bloods can only guide Voldemort, but they cannot completely control him, and Voldemort has not had much contact with ultra-pure bloods recently.

"Dumbledore," Fudge sneered.

"He is a great hero and the White Devil. He has this responsibility and he is doing it at the same time."

……

After a meeting, the Ministry of Magic split into four parts.

All the officials and Aurors lined up.

Some went to Godric's Hollow and belonged to the White Wizards, who agreed with Grindelwald's methods.

Part of them is looking for Dumbledore and participating in the Order of the Phoenix's operations.

Some resigned and lived in seclusion. They did not want to participate in any war.

Most of them stayed in the Ministry of Magic. They were sitting still, praising Dumbledore's power and trying to get Dumbledore to charge into the battle. On the other hand, they were also covering for Voldemort's actions...

……

……

"Grindelwald's original plan was to find the Deathly Hallows and lead a wizarding revolution that would break the International Statute of Secrecy and create a global hierarchical order led by wise and powerful wizards who would rule Muggles."

"But it failed."

"Now he has chosen to attack the Muggles directly, forcing the Ministry of Magic and most wizards to face the Muggles with him."

Hogwarts, in the turret, Bree and Draco talked about the current situation in the wizarding world.

He doesn't have much sense of crisis.

Draco was a little apprehensive.

But after one Christmas, the world has changed drastically.

"Brie, what do we do?"

The Malfoy family not only has assets in the wizarding world, they are also closely involved in the Muggle world.

"My father has told me that our Muggle family, the Malfoy family, is under investigation. If the Malfoys didn't also hold Muggle titles, they might have been confiscated."

"However, my father was taken to the top of the British Muggle community for questioning."

Bree's eyes flickered upon hearing this.

"Dumbledore went too, right?"

Draco was stunned, surprised how Bree knew.

Bree smiled, it would be impossible for Dumbledore not to seize such a good opportunity.

Dumbledore's path is to maintain the balance between the wizarding world and the Muggle world. No one knows this better than him and is suitable for the role of "Peacemaker".

Draco was silent for a long time before he reacted.

"Is Dumbledore going to convince the Muggle world to stop the war against the wizarding world?"

Now because of Grindelwald's provocation, the Muggle world has begun to take the initiative, and this time it will not end so easily.

In the rest of Europe, the Saints and Muggles were still at odds.

"Dumbledore is not the Virgin, he is a wise man." Bree and Draco explained.

"Dumbledore will not think that he can stop the war by relying on words. He is also developing his own power."

Bree handed Draco a document.

After seeing it, Draco exclaimed: "Dumbledore's Army, or was it Professor Newt who helped Dumbledore create it?"

Draco was a little unbelievable that Newt's shy temperament could actually help Dumbledore win over so many wizards internationally, gradually forming an international wizarding force.

"If you add the British Order of the Phoenix, can Dumbledore quell this war?" Draco asked expectantly.

With Draco's thinking, he preferred peacetime.

"No." Bree shook his head.

If Dumbledore and Grindelwald were to confront each other, Grindelwald would fail under the pressure of the Muggle community.

"Why?" Draco wondered.

"Voldemort." Bree said calmly.

This is why Bree wanted to give Voldemort reason.

A demon with outstanding magic but irrationality will not be taken seriously by Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

But it is different now.

Bree looked to the side. Next to the white roses on the table, there was a beautifully gilded envelope. On it was a reminder from Voldemort to tell Bree that he hoped that Bree would move the Ode's shop in Hogsmeade in advance.

By the way, Voldemort also said that there is no diadem under the Black Lake, hoping that Bree can provide some information.

As for the reward...

Voldemort: As you wish, as I wish.

Voldemort didn't know what Bree wanted to do, but he knew what Bree wanted him to do - an extreme pureblood with reason.
