Chapter 854 Will Stand By Your Side Forever
"Dumbledore is not almighty." Lupine confided in Anton as if he were his own child, talking about the evaluation of this respected elder that he would never say in front of others.
"Everyone thinks he is wise, but in fact, I think Dumbledore is often tired of dealing with some political issues."
Lupine sighed, "The theory of 'pure blood supremacy' promoted by the mysterious man did not disappear because of his own downfall, but intensified in the wizarding society, to the point that even many ordinary people would sincerely think that pure blood is the best. Nobler than half-blood, and half-blood than Muggle-born."
"This kind of atmosphere is abnormal. The source is the 'Pure Blood Supremacy' proposed by the mysterious man, and the root is the greed of the sacred twenty-eight clan to maintain vested interests, but Dumbledore has no effective way to reverse the atmosphere."
"Even in the school that Dumbledore has managed for nearly a hundred years, this is the case."
Speaking of this, Lu Ping's expression was a bit complicated, "I think this is the reason why this great old man is unwilling to intervene in politics. He knows he can't do these things well, but letting go is still a very bad choice."
"Dumbledore hopes to influence others with his good character, but there are too few people in this world who treat everyone equally like him."
"I think there is also a reason why he stood up to stop Grindelwald back then. Letting the momentum of 'Wizard Supreme' continue will have dire consequences."
"Later, the "Secrecy Act" was implemented very well. Even if a mysterious person came out to make trouble, many things were controlled to a degree that would not affect the Muggle society."
"At the same time, there is an appropriate level of communication between the wizarding elite and the Muggle elite."
"I think it must be very difficult for Dumbledore to maintain this level. I don't know how much energy he has put in for this."
Lupine turned to look at Anton, "Dumbledore is great, but he is also ordinary. He is an ordinary old man. If you observe from this angle, you can understand many of Dumbledore's practices."
"His powerful strength can guarantee him to promote the justice and kindness in his heart, but he is destined not to influence too many people."
"Because kindness is often weak, even if it is guaranteed by strong strength, it is still so soft. But evil is as sharp as a sharp steel knife."
"Dumbledore will be admired, revered, loved, and many will do the right thing because of him."
"But it also means that he actually doesn't have many ways to restrain bad tendencies from happening."
"And the Minister of Magic who should have taken responsibility in this regard..." Lupine could not hide his disgust, "Most of them are obsessed with power, and they didn't do what they were supposed to do at all."
He took a deep breath, "Of course the mysterious person will firmly oppose it, but the trend continues. After the mysterious person is gone, there will still be a new mysterious person, and it may even be someone in a high position in the Ministry of Magic."
"But that's all Dumbledore can do."
It made Lupine sad to dissect Dumbledore and tell the faults of the great old man, and he didn't like it.
People can not escape from doing wrong.
You can't always focus on what someone can't do or can't do well, and then use the appearance of almighty and goodness as a comparison to criticize the other party.
This is not right, human beings have their limitations.
Anton listened silently, and interrupted him, "Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?"
Lupine pursed his lips and took a deep look at Anton. He didn't explain, but continued, "When we face the world about to undergo drastic changes, we feel powerless in our hearts. We don't know that such changes will bring more A happy ending, or pull everything to the point of being bad or even ruined..."
"we do not know."
"And if we have the ability to stop it, we will generally make a choice, tend to be conservative, and seek stability."
"Because although we are not afraid of change, the tide of the times is turbulent, and countless creatures can only be swept into it without any resistance."
"Strength means responsibility. As the greatest wizard of this century, Dumbledore always goes all out for the peace and stability of the wizarding society, although he is tired of coping."
The unfinished meaning of the words actually put Anton and Dumbledore on opposite sides.
Anton was startled and stared blankly at Lupine, "Me?"
"What are you kidding, I'm not Grindelwald, nor Voldemort!"
Lupine just nodded slightly, "You will bring changes to this world, just like Grindelwald, you will also bring a new order and break the old pattern, which makes everything in the future full of uncertainty Sex, even scary."
"Fear?" Anton leaned back for a moment, his eyes widened. "Did I propose 'Sorcerer Supreme' or 'Pure Blood Supreme'?"
Seeing Anton's amused expression, Lupine couldn't help but smile slightly, "Maybe... it's 'Supreme Magic'?"
"!!!"
Anton froze for a moment, and then fell silent.
"Magic first?"
Sometimes it seems that there is no need to propose a program, as long as the things are done, people can roughly guess some situations from the behavior and style.
Is it really magic?
It's true that Anton had figured this out a long time ago when he explored his inner strength.
"There's nothing wrong with the supremacy of magic..." Anton muttered, technology is the primary productive force, and magic, of course, is also the primary productive force of wizards. If Muggle technology and wizard magic can be combined, if magic can turn all human beings on the earth into wizards, maybe human beings have already broken through the sky and rushed to the stars and seas.
Anton has always been curious about whether the magic of the Portkey can be established to build a shuttle channel between the Earth and Mars.
"Yes, magic is a very magical and beautiful power." Lupine smiled and rubbed Anton's head. He suddenly realized that this godson has grown taller now, oh, he has grown up, and he is no longer suitable for treating him like this. Yes, after thinking about it, he withdrew his hand again.
"But if you think about it, whether it's 'Sorcerer Supreme' or 'Pure Blood Supreme', blood is used to distinguish between high and low, so does 'Magic Supreme' also use 'magic' to distinguish between high and low?"
"If you observe your classmates, you will find that there are not many who can really master magic well."
"At least I'm in the Ministry of Magic now. Those colleagues, let alone the 'Iron Armor Curse' and 'Illusion Curse', some of them can't even perform the 'Repair Curse' well."
"Magic, after all, belongs to a few people. Just because he is a wizard, he doesn't really have magic."
"Not to mention, the class that may emerge in the future to obtain privileges through knowledge monopoly."
"Then, ordinary wizards want to survive better, and perhaps learning black magic to become a dark wizard will become a trend." Lupine shrugged. "As I said, many times, everyone has no choice."
"The most frightening thing is that if the framework of 'magic supremacy' is used, it will impact the existing structure and redistribute benefits. This war will eventually spread to the Muggle society."
"..."
Anton didn't know what to say for a moment. Although his mind became a little crazy because of magic, he was still a normal person and could understand Lupine's words.
Although he didn't take the initiative to find out Lu Ping's mental state, he could still feel Lu Ping's care and protection. He didn't come to oppose him, he came to help him analyze these.
Anton could even feel the pain in Lupine's heart. On the one hand was the respected Dumbledore, and on the other was the family member Anton who was eager to protect.
Oh, and that Pedro thing.
The world is changing, and no one would think that sometimes everyone will come to a situation of confrontation as they walk.
Lupine, who was in the middle, must be feeling uncomfortable.
"The big deal is that I won't bring changes to other people." Anton spread his hands indifferently, "I don't owe them anything, and there's no need to lead them to magic. If everything turns bad, I can play my own. good."
"No!" Lupine shook his head, looking at Anton mildly, "Actually, I think you've done a good job."
"With you, Anton, the magical world is completely different."
"Your arrival has brought vitality to this long-dormant magical world."
Lupine smiled, "When I was in New York, I saw a lot of wizards and scientists chatting in the shelter tower, exclaiming each other's wonders of technology and magic. I felt very shocked and beautiful by that feeling."
"The members of our Order of the Phoenix are working together to study the magic of guns for the survival of wizards. That feeling is also very good."
"Anton, you don't know. At that time, even Mad-Eye was lamenting that there has been no new excellent magic in the magical world for a long time. 'Arrow Deflection' will definitely be recorded in the history of magic."
He stood up, patted the sand on his buttocks, and squinted his eyes to feel the cool breeze blowing from the surface of the Black Lake.
"Anton, this is the worst situation. Sometimes it goes to the opposite side unknowingly, but the bad thing is that neither side is wrong."
"It's like Grindelwald and Dumbledore back then. They both had great and lofty ideals, but they took different paths."
"It's also the most beautiful situation."
"Regardless of what happened, both of them brought some good impact to the world."
"We've seen a lot of things change for the better."
"We all rejoice in the changes, enjoy the benefits they have brought to the world, and call them 'great.'"
"Anton, you too can be great."
"Do what you think is right, I just want you to know that our family..."
The wind became stronger, blowing the hem of Lupin's wizard robe and windbreaker, making it rattle. He turned his head, his eyes were firm and powerful, and with a warm smile on his face, he looked at Anton seriously. , "I will always stand by your side!"
Anton stared blankly at Lu Ping, fell silent for a while, and then laughed, very brightly.
"Quack quack... Lupine, I don't want you to stand on the opposite side of Dumbledore, that would be too cruel for you."
"You child, don't laugh so strangely!"
"Oh, Lupine, you just left out about Voldemort."
"Voldemort..." Lupine curled his lips, "He has nothing to say, an evil villain, the sooner he dies, the sooner he will."
