I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #156 - Chapter 156 Hidden dangers

“You mean they are still treated as slaves now? Slaves in the 21st century? And they are still your slaves now.” Hermione’s eyes widened and she looked at Ian in disbelief.

“Although I want to argue, that’s the fact.” Ian said calmly.

“This is simply… ridiculous.” Hermione suddenly felt so strange. This was no longer like the magical world she knew.

“There’s nothing ridiculous about this.” Ian said calmly. “Do you know anything significant happened in 1621?”

“You are still interested in discussing the history of magic and the Goblin Rebellion in 1621, but what does this have to do with house elves?” Although she was reluctant, Hermione still answered his question.

Hearing this, Ian couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. “House elves and Gringotts elves have one ancestor – the ancient elves. They even established their own country in Europa BC.”

After a slight pause, he continued: “Do you remember how the history of magic records the goblin rebellion? It was bloody and thrilling. If we give the house elves freedom, who will guarantee that they will not turn against wizards?”

Hermione was a little confused and subconsciously said: “But…”

“No but, the Gringotts goblins rebelled, and we stripped them of their wands, thus forbidding them from using magic. But what about the house elves? They cast spells without a wand the entire time.”

Speaking of this, Ian’s tone suddenly became a little heavy: “In that case, we will have to pay a bloody price again and kill them completely.”

Hermione covered her mouth, a little unbelievable that this sentence actually came from Ian’s mouth.

“Don’t look at me like that, I’m not a butcher.” He sounded helpless. “You have no idea what the goblins did during that rebellion. Maybe my words are not convincing, but there is one person who is definitely qualified to say it, and that is the person who has personally experienced this.”

With that said, he took out Nico’s manuscript from his pocket and handed it to Hermione. Although it was an alchemy manuscript, it was more like an experiment diary. Therefore, it is a coincidence that some of Nico’s experiences are recorded in it.

After reading the heinous acts recorded, he no longer had any good suspicions about the goblins.

“Nicol Flamel should be familiar to you. His manuscript contains certain records in 173 pages. Although it is just the tip of the iceberg, it still makes people resentful.”

After saying that, Ian stopped making any sound and sat quietly waiting for Hermione to read.

About ten minutes later. Hermione closed the manuscript with a very complicated expression and stared at the ceiling in a daze without saying a word.

Seeing this, he knew he had to say something.

“Hermione, do you remember what I said during that walk outside the castle? Magic is a fairy tale, but not all fairy tales. If you want to change something, the first thing you have to do now is to put it down and go Learn and accumulate. Otherwise we really can’t do anything…”

Hermione said helplessly: “Yes, there is nothing we can do.”

Ian realized that he had spoken too early. If it were Hermione in fifth grade, it might be a different story. But now that the matter has come to this, we can only continue talking.

“Hermione, look at me.” She gently turned the girl’s head with her hand.

“We have the ability to change! Magic is power, but the most fundamental thing is power. If you have the prestige and strength of Dumbledore’s headmaster, coupled with the position of Minister of Magic, what can’t you change?”

After a strong dose of medicine, Hermione’s eyes instantly regained clarity. “You are right, you cannot choose to turn a blind eye just because of difficulties.”

“Just think about it this way. We still have time. Any decay and change takes time.” Ian was also very happy to see Hermione’s transformation. He had always admired the other person’s perseverance and unwillingness to admit defeat.

“You can read these books when you have time.” Ian said and pointed to the bookshelf beside the bed. “They are all books about ancient goblin alchemy. Believe me, these are knowledge that Hogwarts does not have.”

“Yes, I understand.” Hermione nodded seriously.

Ian was a little relieved, because he knew that this was the correct way to open Hermione. Let her be a scientific research talent, instead of wasting her talents by memorizing textbooks without knowing what they are talking about, let alone raising her hand to answer questions in class to gain points.

More importantly, ancient fairy alchemy is a system of its own. Even when he first started studying it, Ian felt it was a bit difficult. Now, with Hermione’s help, he believes that future research will be much easier. He is deeply touched by the girl’s intelligence.

“Doing something you are not good at is the biggest waste of life…” Ian thought to himself.

…

For the next two weeks, he and Hermione stayed in the candy store to study together during the day, and in the evening, they took the Knight Bus to take Hermione home.

Regarding his daughter’s behavior of leaving early and coming home late, Mr. Granger was hesitant to speak several times. Ian pretended not to see this at all. After spending a long time together, he knew exactly who had the right to speak and who had a higher status in Hermione’s family.

“Good evening, Mrs. Granger. This is a newly developed beauty product by Ms. North, which can effectively slow down the aging of facial skin. Of course, in your current state, I don’t think you will need these products for a long time. After all, You look very young now.”

Ian said pretending to be disappointed, while not forgetting to hand over the gift he bought to Mrs. Granger.

Although Hermione has become somewhat immune to these operations during this period of time… hearing such flattering words today still left her speechless. Find the right moment, take advantage of the opportunity to turn around, and gently kick the opponent.

Mrs. Granger just raised the corners of her mouth slightly, turning a blind eye to these little actions of her daughter, or in other words, she was happy to see them. She had already approved Hermione’s choice in her heart. Otherwise, would she really think that a few bottles of beauty products could make her sell her daughter?

…

Return to Diagon Alley before it gets dark. This time, he didn’t apparate directly to the candy store, but to the main street.

In the evening, the place is still very lively. Ian looked at the shop in front of him with some emotion. The mottled wooden plaque became more and more vicissitudes under the erosion of time.

But it still stands here, witnessing the growth of generations of wizards. It is like a huge rock on the seashore that has lasted for thousands of years, silently watching the changes in the sea, the ebb and flow of the tide…

I gently opened the store door, but there was still no one inside. But he did not move around casually. He stood still and said softly: “Good evening, Mr. Ollivander!”

“Good evening! I remember, thirteen inches of acacia wood, core of thunderbird feathers.”

A familiar voice sounded in Ian’s ears again, and he was not surprised by this nervous old gentleman. Listen to what was said next. God knows whether it was a greeting to a person or a wand.
