Hogwarts: Oops, I'm Voldemort

Chapter 252 A world without Muggles

It was already night when Cyrus returned from the underground cave of Qiuzhi Pavilion.

Hogwarts is very quiet, and the scene here has not changed much in a thousand years. The outline of the castle was no different from Tom Riddle's memory, or from Cyrus's night tour with Ginny's help years ago.

Looking at the branches of the trees moving with the wind in the night, it still reminds people of the bird-shaped man-eater.

At this point, most of the students in the castle were already asleep. When Cyrus walked out of the library alone, he bumped into Filch. The moment this slovenly squib saw Cyrus, his face was obviously full of surprise and fear, and Mrs. Norris even arched her back and made a shrill voice.

Obviously, they still haven't let go of the attack a few years ago.

Fortunately, Filch at least didn't get dizzy. He said hello respectfully and left as if running away.

In fact, Cyrus is still a little sorry for the attack a few years ago. In fact, he also likes cats. He now has a group of Magdalene civets in his mobile suitcase. Maybe Mrs. Norris Will love them.

he thought.

At this time, a burst of soft light suddenly came from the end of the dark corridor, like a silver moon reaching out and pushing open the window, sending her clothes in.

Cyrus turned around and saw a silver phoenix landing in front of him.

This is Dumbledore's patronus.

"Come to the astrology station, I have something to talk to you about."

It brought a message from Dumbledore.

It just so happened that Cyrus also wanted to talk about the Knowledge Pavilion.

Hogwarts has several towers, two of which have become the dormitories of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, the third has become the dormitory of the owls, and the fourth tower has been used as a divination classroom...

These four towers are located at the four corners of the castle.

But there is also a central tower, which is the highest and is therefore used as an astrology classroom for students.

But at this time, even the astrology class is over.

When Cyrus arrived, he happened to see Dumbledore standing at the bay window of the tower. Next to him were many ring-shaped stargazing facilities and the Goblet of Fire with faint blue flames. .

Under the light of the Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore's back looked a little dim.

"It's been so long and you still haven't put away the Goblet of Fire?" Cyrus asked.

The tower is where the Goblet of Fire is hidden in the Contest.

According to common thinking, Voldemort may think that the Goblet of Fire must be placed in the principal's office, but in fact this is not the case. Of course, the result was that Voldemort neither reached the Headmaster's Office nor came here.

He died in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, where he first confirmed his identity and bloodline.

In short, the arrogant Dark Lord did not even see the shadow of the Goblet of Fire in the end.

"There's nothing wrong with putting it here," said Dumbledore.

He turned around, withdrew his gaze from the starry night sky, and said: "I remember, none of us really found the location of the Goblet of Fire, right? There was no result in that game."

Strictly speaking, it was indeed a fruitless game. After Voldemort's death, the competition was naturally terminated. With everyone celebrating the Dark Lord's death, who cares about an insignificant match?

What's more, Cyrus, who destroyed Voldemort, didn't need proof from the Goblet of Fire.

He is the uncrowned king!

"I will officially step down as president of the International Confederation of Wizards in two months. I think Babajide will temporarily handle the affairs of the International Confederation of Wizards on my behalf until the next president is elected." Deng Bullido said.

"Let's talk about this later. I have more important things to tell you." Cyrus shook his head slightly, "It's about the Knowledge Pavilion."

"Did you find the clue?" Dumbledore asked.

Of course he knew what happened in the Qiuzhi Pavilion during this period, but since it was related to ancient magic, he did not interfere and left some things to Cyrus.

Dumbledore looked at Cyrus. He felt that Cyrus's expression was very serious at this moment. It was obvious that what happened was not trivial.

"Voldemort's body is missing."

Dumbledore's heartbeat seemed to skip a beat.

In the Chamber of Secrets, Cyrus burned Voldemort's body, but in fact, he still had another body that did not disappear - a body he refined with his father's bones, servants' flesh, and Harry's blood.

After being defeated by Cyrus in the underground cave of Qiuzhi Pavilion, he was buried here by the collapsed rock.

But now, the body is gone.

"Is it Voldemort again?" Dumbledore felt as if his back felt a little heavier, his shoulders pressed down, and exhaustion made him breathless.

Voldemort, how many times will he have to be destroyed before he gives up?

But Cyrus shook his head.

"If it's really Voldemort, then there's no need to worry, but I don't think so."

By the time he was resurrected in the Department of Mysteries, Voldemort had already used all his methods. Even if he was still alive, that was all. Cyrus even felt that the poor guy didn't deserve to be looked at by him.

The problem now is that the possibility of Voldemort being the culprit of all this is almost zero.

Although Voldemort experienced time travel, he did not have the ability to see through the power of time. The mysterious old man's magical power may have been close to that of a god.

"We still don't know what the purpose of that person is, but obviously we still have a powerful enemy waiting." Cyrus said rationally, "And his power will far exceed Voldemort."

But actually he wasn't too worried.

Judging from everything that person has shown so far, he is just a hidden character. He may be strong, but at most he is just an enhanced version of Voldemort.

Dumbledore nodded too.

Now they don't have much information, so they can only follow the trend.

He returned to the previous topic.

"Now more and more wizards have seen your power. You are like a blazing torch, like the sun. They will worship you and follow your footsteps, which means everything you do will become Role model, you must be cautious in every decision you make," Dumbledore said with a tone of experience.

He was preaching, but he was also speaking from experience.

Don't look at it now. Dumbledore is often attacked by some remarks, especially because many people always think that he has dementia. But countless people trusted him when he was young, and even now many people trust him more than they trust themselves.

The members of the Order of the Phoenix are the perfect example.

"The key is whether you believe Dumbledore." This is what Lupine said to Harry in the original book.

And now, as Cyrus' reputation continues to grow around the world, more and more wizards will regard him as an example and use his words and deeds as a code of conduct to restrain or motivate themselves.

But Dumbledore also knew that, as Grindelwald said, everyone has their own thoughts.

Some people are opposed to breaking the secrecy law, and some people want to use tough measures to deal with Muggles...

These conflicts will not go away and may even turn into war.

"What are you worried about?" Cyrus asked with a smile, "Are you worried about conflict?"

But Dumbledore shook his head.

"We all know that conflict is inevitable. Wizards have suppressed it for too long, and Muggles are not willing to see a group similar to them suddenly appear, but they have to dominate them." He is very rational, especially when Dumbledore had no naive illusions about some things. Just like he never thought that there would be no sacrifices in fighting Voldemort.

He was always willing to prepare for the worst.

Muggles do not have the power of wizards, but they are better at change and war than wizards.

They are like lions who have dominated the entire grassland, but now a group of rare tigers have appeared out of thin air to occupy their place. Even though the world is very vast, lions and tigers may not give in to each other.

Conflict is inevitable, Dumbledore knows this better than anyone.

And he knew better that for wizards, it was far more beneficial to break the law of secrecy than to be discovered by Muggles.

"In that case, what questions do you have?" Cyrus asked.

"The key is, which side are you on?" Dumbledore looked into Cyrus's eyes, as if he wanted to see into Cyrus's mind through those golden-red eyes.

"You have emerged from Voldemort's arrogant soul, but you do not have the same high self-esteem as he did." Dumbledore said.

He could clearly feel that Cyrus had no hatred or contempt for Muggles in his heart, and he could also feel Cyrus's closeness to Muggles. He even felt that Cyrus actually valued the wisdom of Muggles.

So far, Cyrus treats all beings equally, even goblins - he hates those things unabashedly, but his disgust is in one aspect, and Cyrus does not think any life is superior to others.

The weak eat the strong, that's just a law of nature.

"Your strength may not be matched even by Grindelwald and I together. We all know that as long as you are determined, any resistance will not be your opponent." Dumbledore said.

"So, I want to know whose side you're on?"

There's nothing Cyrus can't accomplish if he wants to do it.

So it is very important whether Cyrus is biased towards wizards or Muggles.

Cyrus didn't expect Dumbledore to ask this question, but the answer was simple.

"Why do I have to stand on which side?" he asked, "I am like a scale that can balance the weight of both ends."

"You will find it difficult." Dumbledore said meaningfully, "There is no absolute justice in this world, and you will always have some biases. Especially when you represent wizards now, so many wizards are willing to follow you Behind you, they are mainly you, but you will inevitably be affected by them.”

He continued: "When two different populations collide with each other, the interests of one of them are bound to be harmed."

In fact, Dumbledore was referring to Muggles.

So far, most Muggles know nothing about wizards. They think that they are the only masters of the world. Once a wizard appears in his world, they may immediately attract hostility. They will not allow what belongs to them to be theirs. Things had to be divided up, but what about the wizards?

The arrogance of most wizards leads them to look down upon Muggles.

They do not think that Muggles are creatures who can be equal to them. In fact, most people think that the secrecy law is to protect Muggles.

Cyrus understood this.

"I'm already preparing to solve this problem," he said with a smile. Dumbledore nodded immediately, with curiosity in his eyes. He looked at Cyrus calmly, waiting to hear Cyrus' plan.

"For wizards, the most important thing we should eliminate is most people's prejudice against Muggles. I want them to know that Muggles just don't have magical abilities, not that they don't have talents and intelligence. People like Mr. Weasley understand Muggles best. That's what I'm doing, right?" Sellers said.

Dumbledore nodded.

Arthur Weasley is a famous Muggler.

"It's a pity that due to the secrecy law, even he knows very little about the Muggle world. If they really understand Muggles, it is not difficult to find out how many people who cannot use magic have inspired them to live as they please. Huge wisdom," said Sellers. "I think wizards' Muggle Studies classes should be updated."

He laughed: "Lucius has been doing these things in the United States during this period. He has mastered the wizarding economy in North America and vigorously researched Muggle science and technology."

Breaking prejudices is what Cyrus wants to do in the wizarding world.

Dumbledore nodded in approval.

So Cyrus continued: "And Muggles should be prepared for the presence of wizards in advance."

"It's not easy."

"I think it's just the opposite," Sellers said. "The times have changed Dumbledore, and Muggles' thinking is also changing. They will be more tolerant, and the world will become more and more diverse."

"As for the secrecy law, we don't need to forcefully break it. Instead, we slowly reveal the wizarding world to them."

"Then what are you going to do?" Dumbledore asked curiously.

"Didn't I tell you that I found a right-hand man not long ago?" Cyrus raised his eyebrows, "Gilderoy Lockhart."

Dumbledore had a look of surprise on his face.

"I remember him asking for trouble and forgetting most of it."

"When I went to treat Neville's parents, I also cured him by the way. Although he didn't have much ability, he had a good mind. He would present things in the magical world in the form of stories. "What do you think of the theme of "The Unspeakable Love, Dumbledore and Grindelwald"?" Cyrus said playfully.

"I'm afraid it's not that good..." Dumbledore felt like he was having a myocardial infarction.

Cyrus laughed: "Don't worry, I have already agreed with Harry that Gilderoy will write a book "Harry Potter" by then. It will be popular all over the world, and everyone will know the existence of magic. And longing for letters from Hogwarts.”

Dumbledore had never thought that there was such a way. The scene described by Cyrus reminded him of Lily Potter's sister, the girl named Petunia Evans.

"Muggles never refer to those without magical abilities, but rather those who do not believe in magic, right?" Cyrus said softly.

He walked to the side of the Goblet of Fire, and the light of the cold flames shone into his eyes, like stars twinkling.

"If everyone believed in magic, there would be no Muggles in the world!"
