Chapter 449 We Are The Future
When Gianna loudly announced that Levin was about to take the stage to give a speech, the atmosphere instantly reached a climax.
The applause came like a flood, warm and lasting.
Not only the young wizards of the Erudite Society, but also the newcomers who have just graduated from Hogwarts,
Many wizards who have served in the Ministry of Magic for many years also applauded eagerly.
Although they never had direct contact with Levin.
"Gee, Levin, does he have that much influence in the Ministry of Magic?"
Fleur wore a moon-white bare-shouldered dress and sat elegantly next to Tonks. As Levin's friend, she was also invited to the banquet.
Seeing the reaction at the scene, she was very surprised.
Tonks smiled slightly, and whispered into Fleur's ear: "Of course, after all, in addition to Fudge, our opponent also has Dumbledore. In fact, he is the person we introduced to compete with Dumbledore in terms of influence."
Furong heard this and opened her mouth slightly.
She was surprised that these people actually regarded Dumbledore as their opponent--the great white wizard who defeated two Dark Lords in a row.
But if you think about it carefully, Levin is more important because of this, isn't it?
Even in the eyes of others, Levin's strength and achievements are not as good as Dumbledore's.
But at least - he is young.
Dumbledore was less than a third of what he accomplished when he was his age.
Amid everyone's expectations, Levin appeared on stage wearing the black and gold suit and dress he wore at the Christmas ball.
With his feet in the air, he walked from the void to the stage step by step in a very unique and eye-catching way. Each step sent ripples in the air, triggering a wave of applause and cheers.
"My classmates and colleagues from the Ministry of Magic, thank you for your applause!" he said loudly, "but I feel that your applause should not be given to me as a gift, but should be dedicated to you. Because you and I Together, we saved Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic from Voldemort's dark conspiracy and the corrupt old-style bureaucracy."
The wand in Levin's hand drew a semicircle and pointed towards the wizards in the audience.
"So please applaud yourself." He took the lead in applauding gently, and the crisp applause reverberated in the air. Then, the wizards in the audience also joined in, and the applause and cheers merged into a sea of joy, and everyone felt proud.
The applause lasted for a full minute before gradually dissipating.
Levin lowered his head and played with the wand in his hand. His fingers gently kneaded one end of the wand, as if feeling the power contained in it.
Then, he raised his head, looked in the direction of the Erudite Society, and met Hermione's eyes.
"Some people may think," Levin's voice rang out in the silent field, "that we compromised with Fudge and the appeasers for the sake of power, and did not persist to the end, did not dare to admit Voldemort's return, and did not adhere to the ideal of defending the wizarding world. We are scared. Voldemort."
Hermione lowered her head silently, feeling warm in her heart.
Levin's words touched the bottom of her heart and cleared up her doubts.
In fact, she did not take the initiative to raise these doubts with Levin.
She found that when Levin refused to directly acknowledge Voldemort's return in front of reporters, she was not as disappointed as she had imagined.
When did it start?
This made her think,
Obviously she is a very idealistic girl,
Since when did her innocence, her ideals, and her willingness to compromise for someone begin?
She had previously felt that she could not be the kind of woman Bellatrix was: she was so madly in love that she would even be angry because she was not chosen as a sacrifice by Voldemort, even if the price of the sacrifice was the sacrifice of a hand.
Hermione has always felt that she is a very rational person.
But now, she began to doubt that she might actually have the potential to become a woman like Bellatrix.
If Levin turned into someone like Voldemort right now, she might be willing to manage the Death Eaters for him.
Just like now, she manages the Erudite Society for him.
But Levin lived up to her preference.
He knew her too well, saw through her inner struggles, and was willing to give her an answer in public.
"I want to say," Levin put his hands behind his back, his voice firm and powerful: "Their ideas are good, but they think too highly of Voldemort."
"I think," Levin paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to express his thoughts, "defeating Voldemort should not be our ultimate goal, he is just a small bump in our road. He is not as big as you think. Powerful, and your potential is far beyond your own imagination."
There was silence in the audience, and the young wizards were deeply attracted by Levin's special opinion.
"Look at the Erudite Society, look at our new Aurors," Levin's voice sounded again, "I created a new magic framework, subverting the entire existing magic theory. The heights that arcane magic can reach are far beyond yours. With our imagination and mastering the new theory, we have the future of this world."
Levin raised his hand high, and powerful magic burst out from the top of the clenched wand, pointing directly at the deep and boundless sky.
In an instant, a thunder exploded in the sky, deafening.
Immediately afterwards, strong winds raged, and the originally quiet and clear night was shrouded in thick dark clouds, becoming gloomy and depressing. "Every ten wizards present felt the power of nature.
However, as Levin waved his wand again, the storm and lightning gradually subsided like a tamed beast.
The dark clouds dissipated, revealing the bright stars, and the clear night sky appeared before everyone's eyes again.
Everything returned to calm, as if the violent storm just now was just an illusion.
This shocking scene only took place within a few kilometers.
[Control the weather: 7-ring change system, you can change the local weather and transform it into weather that is consistent with the local climate and seasons. 】
The wizards present finally realized what had just happened.
This is the magic of controlling the weather.
Perhaps there have been wizards in history who have accomplished such a feat, but they were all powerful figures at the level of the Black and White Demon King. There may not be one in hundreds of years, and they have never changed as they please like Levin.
The wizards at 520 cheered excitedly.
"This is the power of arcane magic," Levin's voice echoed in the night sky, "My power will also be your power. This power will subvert the entire magical world, and change will begin with us!"
Cheers came and went, one wave after another.
The wizards were deeply affected by Levin's speech and the real magic, and they seemed to see the dawn of a new era of magic.
Levin looked around and glanced at everyone. He nodded with satisfaction and finally said: "The time is ripe for change, and the order that has remained unchanged for thousands of years is about to be broken. Are you willing to witness this historic moment with me?"
"Willing-" a voice shouted.
"We are willing!!" More voices joined in, forming a torrent.
"Your Excellency Levin, please lead us to change the world!" People stood up and shouted in unison.
They finally understood what the road ahead was,
They finally understood why they held high positions in the Ministry of Magic.
If we say that Gianna is their actual leader and leads them to continuous progress,
Then Levin is the guiding light,
What He did for them revealed great meaning.
They are not striving for a little fame and fortune, nor are they striving for their personal future.
Their struggle is for the future of the entire wizarding world!
