With Xenophilius' whispers, the legend about Benitez began to spread on campus.
No matter how arrogant and stubborn the pure-blood wizarding family is, they still cannot answer the most direct question - why are wizards and not Muggles living in hiding in the world?
On the other hand, some of the ghosts in Hogwarts Castle are clear evidence: the cause of death of Nearly Headless Nick and the Fat Friar is not a secret, and senior and curious little wizards will more or less find out about it.
news, and when people realize that half of the resident ghosts at Hogwarts died directly or indirectly at the hands of Muggle priests, rumors and uneasiness will naturally spread.
Muggles in the non-magical world may not be able to threaten wizards one on one, but when they form an entangled and complex society, they will form a force that cannot be ignored.
Facing the existence of the non-magical world, this is what Elena and the others have always wanted to promote. Father Benitez's appearance is just a smooth sailing.
After leaving the Transfiguration classroom, Elena led Benitez down the stairs towards the Hufflepuff lounge located below the castle.
The arrangement of Hogwarts' "Home-School Linkage Day" is not complicated. After the parent-teacher meeting in the afternoon, there are only free activities left.
The dinner location is set up on the grounds outside the castle. The theme is a family bonfire barbecue, and it won't officially start until at least around 7 or 8 o'clock.
Therefore, during this period, students usually choose to take their parents to visit dormitories and castles, or find a quiet place to discuss and digest campus life.
Due to limited time, the professors did not comment on the performance of each student one by one at the parent-teacher meeting, but gave a rough introduction to the importance of each subject.
Almost all disciplines that have been "updated", as well as traditional and old disciplines, are the focus that must be paid attention to...
Of course, most professors will also emphasize the course they teach.
As for the most tedious and troublesome school grades, these data have long been stored in every little wizard's "magic book".
The professors only need to tell every parent how to access the content, and the rest will fall into place - the school has dedicated family time for everyone.
On the way, Elena skillfully extracted her school results for the past two years and displayed them openly in front of Benitez's father.
After Benitez saw the straight-A results in several grades, he was shocked at first, but when he saw the "signature" of the invigilator of the practical assessment of Dark Arts and the exemption statement written by Dumbledore, he immediately realized that there was something else.
A question: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is obviously also part of the wizarding world, so is Elena considered a student now or...
"These scores...couldn't you have filled them in yourself? Have you really studied hard?"
Benitez said with some suspicion, and finally couldn't help but raise his hand and tap on Elena's course results this year.
"Transfiguration is exempted, History of Magic is exempted, Defense Against the Dark Arts is exempted... There are seven compulsory subjects in total, and you are exempted from three of them?"
"I know you are very smart, but I have a question. If you know almost everything about the magical world, then why don't you apply to skip a grade or graduate early?"
"And I heard Professor McGonagall just introduce that the field of Transfiguration is at an important stage of updating the basic theory. Self-study alone may not be able to keep up with the latest theory. Hogwarts Kitchen Chef, Potions Assistant, Dark Magic
Practical Assistant of Defense Class, Head of House of Hogwarts...Have you put too much energy into things other than studying?"
Different from other students' ordinary "student handbooks", Elena's "magic book" is obviously several levels more complete and comprehensive in terms of various functions.
The most conspicuous among them is undoubtedly the section printed on the catalog - Benitez turned the first page and saw the pile of titles, each title corresponding to a part of the magic page.
You know, this is just the identity in Hogwarts.
According to his "cheap dad", Elena manages at least two or three mysterious organizations outside of school.
"You are only twelve years old. Have you taken on too many adult tasks for yourself?"
Benitez closed Elena's magic book, rubbed his eyebrows, and looked worriedly at the cute little dumpling next to him.
"You know what? The reason why I agreed to let you go to a magic school is to make it easier for you. Really, Elena, I don't want your childhood to be all like this -"
Elena knew that Benitez's words could not really change anything, but she still felt very happy.
Perhaps only at Father Father's place, those gorgeous crowns on her head would be temporarily hidden, even if Mr. Grindelwald was not so pure when he cared about her.
Elena thought for a moment, stopped, and sighed softly towards Benitez.
"The intersection between the magical world and the non-magical world is inevitable, and escaping like an ostrich will not make me feel at ease at all."
She gently twirled her long silver hair with her fingers, raised her head and looked at Benitez seriously. There was an unfathomable depth in her lake-blue eyes.
"The chain reaction of the collapse of the Soviet Union should have caused tens of millions of people to be displaced, hungry and cold, but because of the emergence of magic, their stories were rewritten into fairy tales."
"Decades ago, magic and non-magic met for a brief moment, and a world war broke out between the two worlds - I don't want hell to come because of me."
She paused for a moment, lying on the smooth and cold marble handrail of Hogwarts, looking at the noisy crowd surging below the stairs.
"I can't stop, Dad - I have awakened the potential of the magical world that has been dormant for centuries."
"This power is powerful enough to destroy human civilization hundreds of times, and any unexpected spark may set the entire world on fire."
"And at this dangerous moment, I may be the only one who knows the direction of the safe road and has the ability to change the direction of the wave-"
Obviously, Dumbledore saw this and chose to "retire" temporarily.
With the dark clouds dissipating, the uncertainties lingering in the magical world have almost been completely eliminated.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the loose magic civilization is twisted together. If there is a slight accident, what awaits the world is not the arrival of fairy tales, but the brutal invasion of the magic empire.
The responsibilities on Elena's shoulders were much more and heavier than ever. The Great Arcana Council had completely become a place dominated by her and Grindelwald.
Grindelwald is the fuse when the war breaks out, and Dumbledore is the brake when the war is out of control. As for her... she must try her best to let the two old guys retire in peace of mind.
She must simultaneously shoulder Dumbledore's stabilizing role and promote the innovative guidance of magical civilization - Elena couldn't help but tell Benitez the pressure that she couldn't retreat from, and the
What kind of new world does she expect to look like, what factors should she consider, how to find a balance between the various forces, and carefully maintain peace.
"Hmm, this future sounds pretty good-"
Benitez was silent for a long time, then raised his hand and rubbed Elena's hair with a smile.
"Elena, you are indeed a very important leader of the new world, so you should learn to combine work and rest."
He squatted down slightly, patted his thick shoulder, grinned and said to Elena.
"Come on, I'll carry you down - just like I did when I was little, you can take the opportunity to take a break. Although I can't help you share the pressure, at least I can carry my little princess to the destination..."
Benitez raised the folded page in his hand, pinched Elena's little nose lovingly, and said proudly.
"The school sent me a map with the topography of the underground floors drawn on it. The steps below won't move automatically, right?"
