Chapter 386. Dumbledore Talks to Medea
"This statement is absurd."
Dumbledore disagrees with Medea.
"We can't unreasonably ask one person to sacrifice something for another. From the facts I know, Scott has done his best to help his friends."
He paused, and then said: "Of course, I didn't contact you to discuss this with you, Ms. Slytherin, you shouldn't embarrass a child like this."
"Unfortunately, I am not your student, Mr. Principal." Medea said coldly.
Dumbledore did not respond to her sarcasm, but said, "I want to talk to you about the current situation in the wizarding world, ma'am."
"Oh?" Medea seemed to be interested, "What do you want to talk about?"
"I hope that you and those wizards who have joined your ranks can really focus on fighting for a better future for wizards, as you said yourself."
said Dumbledore earnestly.
"The Ministry of Magic is falling apart, and most people are fighting for the sake of fighting, and don't even care about their own jobs. I must say, this does not lead to a better future for wizards."
Both Scott and Professor Flitwick were a little surprised to hear him say that.
Because they are very clear that Medea's slogan is just a slogan, she is not for any bright future, she is just to change the established fate of more people recorded in [History Volume].
Could it be that Dumbledore was conspiring with Medea?
"You're right, it's my fault."
What was even more unexpected was that Medea also admitted her mistake simply and neatly.
Could it be that the banner of "for a better future" cannot be toppled?
"You know very well what the factional struggles in the Ministry of Magic are all about." Medea said again, "so I have a very good proposal."
"Please tell me." Dumbledore said politely.
Medea said: "Tom is the biggest unstable factor in the British magic world, isn't he? After all, he advocates the supremacy of pure blood and cannot treat all wizards equally."
Dumbledore responded calmly, "Tom's existence will indeed affect peace."
"Then let us join hands to get rid of him." Medea suggested, "Get rid of Tom, the banner of pure bloodism, and completely suppress those stubborn forces that only look at blood. Only in this way can the magic world welcome Better development."
Scott saw Dumbledore shook his head, obviously, he did not agree with Medea's proposal.
"I really want to get rid of Tom. He is a heinous dark wizard. Over the years, he has brought pain and fear to many people."
His tone of voice became a little heavy.
"But I'll never join forces with you, Ms. Slytherin."
Medea laughed.
"You look down on me, Mr. Principal." She said with a smile, "Because I am not a good person in the traditional sense, and have even done a lot of bad things that can be called vicious in people's eyes."
Dumbledore shook his head again.
"That's not the main reason," he said. "I don't ask everyone to be noble."
"What's that for?"
Hearing what Dumbledore said, Medea seemed a little curious.
"Because you can't treat everyone equally." Dumbledore said, "You really don't value the blood of wizards like Voldemort, but what you value is ability, and your philosophy is that talent comes first."
"Excuse me, is there anything wrong with advocating the idea of supremacy of talent?" Medea asked.
Scott could hear from her tone that she really didn't understand what could be criticized for her ideas.
Dumbledore began to make his point.
"I know that everyone is different. Everyone has huge differences in appearance, bloodline, ability, personality and so on."
"But I want to say that all people should be equal in personality."
"Even the weakest people have the right to live."
"We should guarantee that right."
"This is what separates humans from beasts."
"Beasts only know how to survive, but we know how to love."
"I see what you mean, you're right." Medea's voice came from the small fireplace again, "But it's not practical."
Without waiting for Dumbledore to say anything else, she continued to express her point of view.
"To promote the development of the whole society, the first thing to ensure is that talented people can get a better future."
"The weak and incompetent should accept the leadership of talented people. When they can't keep up, they will be eliminated. There is no way."
"We should see the whole."
"I think some sacrifices were even necessary."
"We can even take the initiative to remove some impurities to make the wizard stronger as a whole."
No matter what Medea's real purpose is, Scott, who is in the principal's office at the moment, can hear that she said these words from the heart.
After listening to her, Dumbledore just replied, "Ordinary people are the majority."
"Ordinary people are like sheep without a shepherd dog." Medea retorted.
"Mr. Principal." She said, "Do you think that you, a strong man known as the greatest wizard of this century, and a witch who only knows how to wash pots and dishes all day long have the same value for wizards as a whole? Is it?"
Dumbledore said seriously: "I don't think I am any different from a witch who only knows how to wash the dishes. That witch may sound like an ordinary wife and an ordinary mother, but what she can give her Best love from husband and children."
Medea was silent for a while.
But she wasn't convinced by Dumbledore.
"I realize that none of us can convince anyone, Mr. Principal." She said in a cold tone, "Then let everyone see whose theory can bring a better future to the magic world."
After speaking, she took the initiative to disconnect the connection between the fireplaces.
Dumbledore shook his head and sighed when he saw the green flame in the small fireplace go out.
"Why are you talking to her, Albus, this lady is obviously having a hard time coming to terms with us," Professor Flitwick said aloud.
"I want to know what she really thinks in her heart," said Dumbledore. "I want to know whether everything she does is just following her father's orders, or whether there is also her own will in it."
"Clearly the lady didn't think kindly of herself," Professor Flitwick said.
Dumbledore nodded, "Although the standards are different, both this lady and Voldemort are equally keen to classify people into different levels."
As he spoke, he shook his head again.
"If this goes on, the Ministry of Magic will get worse and worse," Professor Flitwick added.
Then, neither of the two professors spoke, and the atmosphere in the principal's office became a little dignified.
Scott looked at the two professors, but did not speak rashly.
Of course, he didn't think he could say anything thought-provoking in this regard.
After all, his experience of receiving political education was only in the middle school classroom in his previous life, and most of that knowledge was returned to the teacher after the college entrance examination.
As for college?
Scott only remembers politics classes in college as open-book exams.
Just as Scott was trying to remember his past life, Dumbledore spoke again.
"Sorry, Scott, I almost forgot that old guy."
Scott quickly put away his memories.
"About Mr. Carrow." Dumbledore said, "Mr. Scrimgeour, Director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic, has taken him away and notified the Rolle family who were also victims."
"Do I need to testify at the Ministry at his trial?" Scott asked.
"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you."
Dumbledore smiled.
"I have been notified that due to the urgency of the Rolle family, the case about Mr. Carlo will be heard next Friday morning. At that time, I will take you to the Ministry of Magic to testify."
"Oh, you can definitely testify this time." Professor Flitwick said with some guilt, "Sorry, Scott, when you were attacked by Carlo last time, what I told you didn't come true."
Scott quickly said, "It's not your fault, Professor."
He didn't want to see Professor Flitwick feel guilty about himself, the professor had been good enough for him.
Moreover, Professor Flitwick is a more pure professor than Dumbledore.Because he has never been involved in politics, he is really powerless in some matters.
"So, that's all for today's conversation." Dumbledore smiled at Scott again, "Ms. Ravenclaw has already said that you don't need to go to her class today, maybe you need to relax for a day .”
"Ms. Ravenclaw is right, you don't have to go to Professor Babling's this afternoon, and you don't have to go to my place tonight, just go and play with your friends." Professor Flitwick smiled more kindly at him.
He looked at Scott like he was looking at a poor child.
Although Scott wanted to say that he didn't need to relax and just wanted to study, he still accepted the kindness of his tutors and professors, and left the principal's office after thanking him.
What a coincidence, Scott thought, encountering these two creatures just after taking the advice to relax.
On his way out of the castle, he saw the Weasley twins flitting about the courtyard like two Bludgers.
Each of them held a binoculars in their hands, looking at the sky and the ground for a while, looking very busy.
Soon, the two stopped at the same time and pointed the lens of the telescope in their hands at Scott.
"Oh! Scott!" said Fred in a showy tone.
George shook the binoculars in his hand cooperatively, "See what this is?"
"Spotting telescope?" Scott walked up to the two of them.
"No!" Fred raised his chin and announced loudly, "It's a magic camera!"
"We succeeded!" George raised his hands excitedly.
"This is it?" Scott looked at the "monocular telescope" in the hands of the two with a puzzled expression. "What is the difference between the magic camera you invented and the panoramic telescope? Is there a tube missing?"
