#47 - Chapter 47 The Concept of Wizards

Looking at the letter in his hand, Sebastian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He never imagined that the culprit who caused Hogwarts to lose the game was the owl that delivered the letter to him.

It was just that the owl was too frightened to approach him in the stands, and only delivered the letter after he returned to his office.

He opened the wax seal on the back of the envelope, took out the letter, and began to read it slowly.

Dear Sebastian,

Long time no see, I hope you are enjoying your life as a professor.

After a long period of preparation and the handling of various tedious procedures, the company has finally gotten on the right track.

Although this process has not been easy, it has finally yielded gratifying results.

Now, regarding the specific action plan for the next step, I still have some doubts in my mind, so I really need your opinions and suggestions.

I hope you can come to London as soon as possible to discuss the future development of the company together.

I believe that with our joint efforts, we will be able to see the blueprint you described one day in the future.

Your loyal friend,

Mr. White

PS Please do not reply by owl, I would be very troubled if the employees saw it.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Sebastian smiled slightly, stood up, walked into the fireplace, and returned to the villa in the suburbs of London.

He made a phone call to White and arranged to visit him for dinner.

At 6:30 in the evening, Sebastian arrived at a villa in London as scheduled and rang the doorbell.

Soon, a middle-aged man who looked about 30 years old opened the door of the villa.

"Welcome! Sebastian!"

As soon as he opened the door, White gave Sebastian a warm hug, and then led him inside, complaining as he walked:

"You lazy fellow, you're the best at slacking off. You ran off to Hogwarts to be a professor, leaving such a big company to me! I really don't know how you can be so relieved?"

"Hahaha, the world keeps turning regardless of who's here or not."

Sebastian let out a hearty laugh, "Besides, what could I possibly not trust you with!"

"Come on, come on, you've finally come all this way, if you don't explain clearly what to do next today, I won't let you leave no matter what!"

"No problem, let's talk while we eat!"

Arriving at the dining room, Sebastian looked at the empty villa and sighed: "Your villa is a bit empty, haven't you thought about finding a mistress for this villa?"

"Or, finding a master would also work!"

"At the very least, you should hire two servants!"

Hearing Sebastian's teasing, White was a little speechless. He laughed and scolded: "You, Sebastian, if I didn't have to discuss serious matters with you, I would kick you out right now!"

He pointed to the sumptuous dishes on the table: "Can't such delicious food shut your mouth? You're annoying as soon as you arrive."

"Then I'll leave?"

Sebastian replied with a smile, then pretended to turn around and leave.

White didn't indulge Sebastian at all. He sat down on his own and watched Sebastian act foolish.

Seeing that White didn't mean to stop him, Sebastian wasn't embarrassed. He just chuckled, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite White.

After eating and drinking his fill, White took out a cigar, lit it, and put it in his mouth to smoke.

He blew a smoke ring, and then said with a serious expression: "Wizard Pictures and Wizard Publishing have both been established, tell me more about the next step of the plan."

"Also, I still can't help but ask, why do you insist on using the name 'Wizard'?"

"Aren't you worried about the Ministry of Magic causing you trouble?"

Sebastian wasn't really worried about this.

The concept of a wizard didn't just suddenly appear!

You should know that in the Muggle world, legends of wizards, werewolves, and vampires have always been circulating.

The concept of a wizard has been circulating in Muggle history since ancient times, and is an important part of many cultures and legends.

In the Middle Ages in Europe, wizards were often depicted as people with mysterious powers, who could cast spells, predict the future, and had supernatural powers.

In the legend of King Arthur, the wizard Merlin is a typical example. He possessed great magic and wisdom, and assisted King Arthur in achieving his hegemony.

In addition to the legends of wizards, there are also stories of mysterious creatures such as werewolves and vampires.

Werewolves are another mysterious creature that is widely present in European legends. It is said that they transform into wolves during the full moon and have extraordinary strength and speed.

This type of legend was described in detail in 19th-century werewolf stories, in which the werewolf character transforms at night and returns to human form during the day, showing the dual identity of humans and beasts.

The stories of vampires are also widely circulated, especially in Eastern Europe.

Muggle writer Bram Stoker wrote a vampire novel as early as 1897. The novel's Count Dracula is a bloodthirsty vampire who preys on young and beautiful women.

This image has deeply influenced later literary and film works, making vampires a classic character in horror stories.

Perhaps, before the 17th century, Muggles were generally afraid of wizards.

Therefore, with the support of the Holy See, the witch hunt became more and more intense, eventually leading to the signing of the "International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy."

Although the wizarding world has been hidden from the sight of Muggles due to the "International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy."

However, the legends of wizards, werewolves, and vampires have been deeply rooted in the cultural traditions of Muggles through word of mouth, written records, and literary adaptations.

Hundreds of years have passed, and Muggles have eliminated their fear of the concept of wizards.

On the contrary, many Muggle writers have created one dazzling fantasy world after another.

Allowing more and more Muggles to become interested in these wonderful worlds and become addicted to them.

Thinking of this, Sebastian smiled slightly, picked up his glass, and took a sip of cola.

"Haven't you read Mr. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings"? Isn't this work created by a Muggle?"

"I know, there are some powerful wizards in the book. However, the image of the wizards described in the book..."

White hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and said: "Is a little different from us!"

"Isn't that even better?"

Sebastian leaned back in his chair, a confident smile on his face: "Who can truly define what a wizard should be like?"

"Is it you? Or me? Or thousands upon thousands of Muggle writers?"

"Like Muggles, the image of wizards is inherently diverse!"

"The role of Wizard Publishing is to attract more Muggle writers to create, and use their works to make more Muggles accustomed to the concept of wizards."

"The meaning of Wizard Pictures is to bring these different images to the big screen! Let Muggles become interested in wizards in movies and television, and thus like this group of people."

"When an image that belongs exclusively to our magical world appears, it can be perfectly integrated into the many wizard images!"

"As for the Ministry of Magic you're worried about," Sebastian's tone seemed a little contemptuous when he talked about the Ministry of Magic.

"The Ministry of Magic can control everything, but can it control the literary works of Muggles?"

"What does the wizard created by Muggle authors have to do with the wizard in the magical world?"

"Besides," Sebastian spread his hands and said a very tongue-twisting sentence in a funny way.

"You live in the Muggle world as a Muggle, you run a Muggle company with Muggle means, and you arrange for a team composed of Muggles to film works written by Muggle writers."

"Everything is very Muggle!"

"Isn't it?"

"Why worry about the Ministry of Magic?"

Speaking of this, Sebastian paused.

"By the way, since we're talking about Muggle identities,"

He sat up straight, stared into White's eyes and asked: "It's been 11 years, aren't you going to restore your wizarding identity and surname? White."

"Of course, you can let me call you another name in private."

"Black!"
