Early in the morning on October 2, the latest news published in the Daily Prophet sparked heated discussions among everyone.
“Minister of Magic Amelia Susan Bones delivers her inaugural speech: Resolutely fight against all dark forces!” 》
Scott read the report quickly.
Ms. Burns’s inaugural speech can almost be seen as a declaration of war against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
This woman continued her unforgiving attitude when she was the director of the Department of Legal Enforcement, and strongly expressed her determination to resolutely fight against the forces of darkness.
“What do you think?” Eddie turned to ask.
Milton said: “Of course it’s good. I mean, Minister Burns’s attitude can give people hope. You know, since the mysterious man appeared publicly, many wizards have been enveloped in despair.”
Luna looked at Ms. Burns, who looked serious in the photo.
“Oh, she has a tough attitude,” she said. “Maybe she should pay more attention to her own safety.”
“Don’t say that, will the mysterious man lead the Death Eaters to attack the Ministry of Magic?” Keira said with a white face.
“What can’t they do?” Her boyfriend Dylan frowned, “Besides… the mysterious man is too powerful. No one can stop him unless it’s Dumbledore.”
Roger intervened, “So our new minister is now in a very dangerous situation, especially since she has publicly announced that she will send Aurors to the homes of wanted Death Eaters to capture them. This will undoubtedly anger those people.”
“She must have been able to think of all this, but she still did it.” Eddie also stared at the photo in the newspaper, his eyes flashing, “I think she is a great minister.”
Keira said: “But is this really good? If, I mean, if something happens to her, those wizards who are afraid of the mysterious man will become more desperate.”
At this point, her face became even paler.
“I heard my father say that those Death Eaters more than ten years ago have always done all kinds of evil, causing many people to die tragically and countless families to be broken. In short, I can’t imagine what those guys would do if they were angered.”
Clearly, she was a bit pessimistic.
Not only was he worried that Minister Burns would be retaliated by Voldemort and the Death Eaters, he was even more afraid that his family would be implicated in the war.
Dylan quickly whispered to comfort her.
“Scott, what do you think?” Milton asked Scott.
Scott didn’t express an opinion just now.
In his opinion, Ms. Burns would not have said those words out of sheer enthusiasm.
Although those declarations can play a positive role in maintaining the authority of the Ministry of Magic, if they fail, they will have the opposite effect.
Perhaps Dumbledore and his Order of the Phoenix will also be involved, or have a plan.
But when faced with Milton’s question, he just said: “No matter what, we students can’t do anything but trust the new minister.”
After breakfast, Scott asked Luna alone, “Luna, you just said that Ms. Burns should pay attention to her own safety. Did you see something?”
Luna shook her head.
“I just think she should be careful.”
“Intuition?” Scott muttered.
He knew that Luna’s intuition was always accurate.
Could something really happen to the newly appointed minister?
“What’s wrong?” Luna asked.
Scott shook his head, “I trust your intuition, but this kind of thing…even if we remind her, it’s useless. Ms. Burns’s ability to say those words proves that she has already awakened.”
Luna said: “I think she is someone who will move forward courageously.”
This concludes the discussion on the Minister.
They started talking about the Triwizard Tournament.
“It’s a pity that I couldn’t gather 5 recommendations.” Luna said regretfully.
But she soon started laughing again.
“But I’m sure you’ll win the most plaudits, Scott.”
“Thanks.”
After Scott said goodbye to her, he went to the Room of Requirement again and studied all day.
In the evening, after leaving the Room of Requirement, Scott went to Professor Flitwick’s office to borrow [Ravenclaw’s Diadem], and finally basically mastered the set of magic circuits.
On the way back to the dormitory, Scott was still reviewing the composition of the entire set of magic text circuits in his mind.
With the help of Ravenclaw’s mentor, the set of magic circuits originally named [Illusion of the Ice Ocean and Starry Sky] had been removed from the parts that made up the specific illusion and turned into [Blank Illusion].
That is the framework.
As long as Scott fills it with the ancient magic script he has mastered and maintains the structural stability of the magic script circuit, he can create a new illusion.
But this is undoubtedly very difficult. It requires countless attempts and even requires some luck to succeed.
In short, in order to realize his idea, Scott is ready to borrow [Ravenclaw’s diadem] again, and he is also considering the elixir of happiness.
In the following days, Scott spent most of his time creating illusions, and went to Professor Flitwick’s office more often to borrow crowns.
Fortunately, Professor Flitwick knew that his experiment was to prepare for the Triwizard Tournament, so he gave him the green light.
October 15th is another Saturday.
That night, Scott came to the auditorium and found that the professors were all sitting on the teacher’s bench in the front of the auditorium.
He walked to the Ravenclaw table and asked his roommate, “What happened?”
“Dumbledore is going to announce the list of 25 people who can go to Beauxbatons.” Eddie said, “Didn’t you read the bulletin board in front of the auditorium?”
Scott shook his head.
He went to the Room of Requirement early in the morning, when
The bulletin board was still empty, and he ignored it when he came in just now.
At this moment, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the middle of the teacher’s chair, stood up and said to everyone: “All the 25 students who will represent Hogwarts and go to Beauxbatons to participate in the Triwizard Tournament have been selected, in order. ,they are–“
“Cedric Diggory.”
“Scott Trollope.”
“Terence Higgs.”
“Angelina Johnson.”
…
As the names were read one by one, applause broke out from the long tables of the four major colleges.
When Angelina’s name was read out, Scott turned his head and glanced specifically.
Sure enough, Fred’s expression looked a little silly.
That guy must regret giving up too soon, Scott complained.
“Ethan Cooper.”
“Caccinistrozzi.”
“Roger Davis.”
The last name appeared, and Scott looked at Roger in surprise.
“You guy, you never said anything!”
Eddie’s eyes widened, “Roger! You actually succeeded! But you’ve been hiding it from us!”
“Congratulations, Roger,” Milton said.
Other students also started to congratulate.
“Oh, it’s nothing.” Roger shook his head pretending to be handsome, “It is said that there are many beautiful girls in Beauxbatons. I can’t miss them no matter what.”
Obviously, because Hogwarts has no goal, Roger, who has been idle for too long, will start to radiate his charm again.
Scott was secretly amused.
He was looking forward to it.
As a love expert, Roger shouldn’t fall for Beauxbatons’ half-breed Veela.
Sorry, there are a few updates today.
More to come tomorrow.
