Chapter 4 4 Elves Education

Chapter 4 4. Elf Education

Lily was surprised by Jon's maturity and intelligence that were different from his peers, but that was all.

Even if it was rare to see a mature child, she had seen one before. For example, the child of the Longbottom family who lost his mother when he was young had always been more sensible than other children of the same age.

Jon's explanation made Lily put down her only trace of vigilance against him, and then as she promised before, she could now answer Jon's questions.

"Is the man named Barty Crouch really a professor at the magic school?"

Even if the situation was temporarily safe, Jon still felt incredible about what happened today.

Traveling to a magical world that only existed in fantasy was indeed shocking, but it had not yet made Jon unacceptable.

However, judging from what happened today, this might be the magical world in the novel, but it was definitely not just that simple.

According to the plot he knew, Lily Potter in front of him had died with her husband 10 years ago, and her son Harry Potter would survive the biggest villain in the story - Voldemort, and then become the only hope of the entire magic world to defeat this dark devil.

And the wizard Barty Crouch Jr. who found him first was a diehard fan of Voldemort, the kind of diehard fan who would kill his mother and father for Voldemort.

In the fourth part of the original book, he pretended to be the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at that time, and conspired for Voldemort's resurrection plan in Hogwarts. Although he succeeded in the end, he was also caught by the Ministry of Magic and his soul was sucked away by the Dementors.

Before this, he had been imprisoned at home by his father, the director, who was also called Barty Crouch, using the Imperius Curse. How did he become the professor of Charms at Hogwarts now?

Would Dumbledore recruit such a former Death Eater and a nominally dead person to be a professor at Hogwarts?

Or is it that Dumbledore is no longer the principal of Hogwarts?

Jon had many questions in his mind. Although the conversation between Lily and Crouch was brief, it also exposed many things.

Wanted criminal, real Hogwarts, terrorist organization impersonating, exile

Jon has not forgotten any of these impressive words.

The magic world is definitely still the same magic world, but there must be some major changes that he doesn't know about.

For example, if the Lily in front of him is really the one he knows.

What about Harry Potter?

Jon certainly can't ask directly "Do you have a son named Harry?" He can only understand the current situation of the magic world in a roundabout way.

Hearing Jon's question, Lily's face became a little gloomy, like the sea at night, seemingly calm, but actually contains stormy waves that may erupt at any time.

"If we follow the official announcement of the Ministry of Magic, 90% of what he told you is true."

"He is indeed the professor of the spells class at Hogwarts. He found you to enroll you. The notice you signed is the real admission notice of the magic school. But kind professor, friendly classmate, hehe"

Her green eyes met Jon's eyes, and the gloom and anger in her eyes seemed to overflow from her eyes.

"Do you know the slave owners in the Middle Ages?"

Her performance made Jon feel inexplicably nervous. He swallowed and nodded gently.

"For that school, students like you who come from a Muggle society and whose parents are all Muggles are slaves that they want to train. For pure-blood students, it is indeed a school, but for Muggle students, it is a training ground!"

"The so-called Muggles are ordinary people in the ordinary world who do not know magic and cannot use magic."

"The admission notice written in ancient runes only requires Muggle students to sign. Because that notice has another name - 'Elf Education Contract'!"

Jon's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart was shocked.

The word elf is not a beautiful and noble species in the world of Harry Potter.

House elves, a magical creature domesticated by wizards as slaves, have been proud of serving wizards unconditionally since they were born, and are completely controlled by wizards in spirit and outlook!

Lily's voice was very cold, as cold as an iceberg that has not melted for thousands of years.

"You may not understand what elf education means, but once you sign this contract, you will be restricted by Hogwarts in all aspects. After entering the school, you will receive slave education, and you will not even have the right to obtain a wand. You will never be recognized as a wizard. The only official title is one word-'mudblood'!"

Jon was silent.

He never thought that the world had changed to this extent.

In the original book, although blood discrimination is a social problem in the magic world, it would never be so completely separated that the class is no longer considered human.

There is only one possibility for such a situation to occur, and Barty Jr., a former Death Eater, to become a professor at a magic school.

The dark devil Voldemort, who can only be regarded as a terrorist in the original book, completely controlled the power of the magic world and let himself rule and control the entire British island!

But does the madman who only thinks about killing people by eating melons really have such ability?

What is Dumbledore doing?

He just watched the magic world change?

With only this little information now, Jon couldn't figure out what kind of changes had happened to make the magic world, which was originally good, become what it is now.

Jon raised his head and looked at Lily again.

"Then Mrs. Potter, you."

"You can call me Professor Potter."

Lily had a blank expression on her face, and it was hard to tell how her mood changed after hearing the title of Madam.

After a small test, Jon took a deep breath without getting any results.

"Okay, Professor Potter, just now when we were in the orphanage, I remember you told me that you would take me to the real Hogwarts? Is that also a magic school?"

"No, that's right. I'm going to take you to the only magic school in the UK. The current castle is not qualified to be called a school at all."

Lily frowned and corrected Jon's mistake in his words, and then continued.

"Seven years ago, the magic world had not become what it is now. Hogwarts Principal Albus Dumbledore could not resist that man's oppression and rule over the magic world, but he led us and never stopped resisting."

"The real Hogwarts will never be confined to the ancient castle. While constantly fighting to overthrow oppression and regain the equal status of Muggle wizards, we have never given up on giving the next generation of young wizards a correct and fair education. So even if we leave the castle, the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, has never disappeared, and I am the professor of potions who is responsible for taking you to school."

After Lily's words fell, the wooden house fell into silence.

The flickering fire reflected on Jon's seemingly calm face.

After figuring out the current dark situation, he sighed helplessly in his heart and drank the hot chocolate in the cup that had become slightly cool and sticky in one gulp.
