A moment later, the living room of Newt Scamander's house.
The confrontation between the young Dark Lord and the old Master of Magical Beasts did not last long. As an otaku wizard who was not good at dealing with people, even after so many years, he was no match for the evil capital Luoli.
.
Newt's specialty is magical animals, but in this situation, all his experience is meaningless.
Whether it was the terms of the contract, the exchange of words, the logic of capital, the silent threat, or even the combination of various conspiracies, after just a few minutes of resistance, he fell into the devil's carefully crafted network.
middle.
At the dining table that served as a temporary signing table, Newt's face was full of melancholy.
Three or four employment contracts were stacked in front of him, each of which was at least several pages long and filled with various clauses and rules so densely that Newt Scamander had to read them word for word very carefully.
Look down.
At the same time, Elena sat obediently next to him, happily eating the cookies baked by Mrs. Scamander.
Of course, in addition to this, the girl will also answer Newt’s questions about the confusing aspects of the contract at any time.
After all, most people are prone to hesitation when faced with complicated and standardized modern contracts for the first time. At this time, they often need a little help from professionals...or, threats and inducements.
Newt rubbed his eyebrows, put down the parchment in his hand, turned his head and asked in a low voice.
"Well, this is...the Society of Magical Beasts?"
"That's right."
"Wouldn't that be the same as the previous 'Society for the Protection of Magical Creatures'?"
Elena nodded nonchalantly and replied with a smile, "It's not you who pays for it anyway, wouldn't you like double the happiness?"
"Miss Kaslana, you know what I'm worried about. I don't want to get involved in too many troublesome things."
Newt Scamander sighed and said helplessly, "Since you plan to let me be the first person in charge of these magical animal-related associations, then I should still understand these things clearly, right? Otherwise, I will not continue to sign.
Already."
Even though they had only been together for less than a few hours, Newt had already felt the difference between Elena and other wizards.
Compared to Grindelwald, Dumbledore... those contemporary wizards he was familiar with, Elena's stubbornness and seriousness in rules were simply amazing. This may be what Dumbledore valued.
Point of unique quality.
This child is a natural guardian of order in the world.
In Newt Scamander's memory, this is exactly the same as the Sphinx, one of the guardian totems in ancient Egypt. She is smart and pays attention to the rules of order. As long as she abides by the rules of her game, she will become extremely docile and friendly.
In fact, this is how Newt views Elena now - a hybrid Veela with a Sphinx living in her soul.
"Well, if you must ask for clarity, I can try to explain it once."
Looking at Newt who stopped his quill, Elena shrugged, put down the cookie and answered seriously.
"The development of any industry must be based on clear industry standards and institutional norms. Only in this way can we ensure that this is a formal 'industry' with vitality, rather than a scattered and disorderly imitation of primitive 'behaviors'!"
"Regarding the work in the field of magical animals, you have made many great efforts before, but you only lacked the ability to integrate them to form a sustainable industry that requires everyone to recognize, comply with, and change - business, academic
, entertainment, politics, combat...these fields may overlap, but they must not be lumped together."
Elena paused for a moment, glanced at Newt, who was frowning, and blinked.
"Well, you should be able to understand it so far, right?"
"You tell me first. Even if I don't understand it temporarily, I should be able to figure it out later."
An embarrassed look flashed across Newt's face, he tugged at the corner of his mouth helplessly, and answered calmly.
Unexpectedly, I was sympathized with by a child who had just turned eleven!
This child... is even more frightening than Gellert Grindelwald. After all, he can still understand most of what Grindelwald says, but many of the theories this little guy talks about sound strange at first glance.
They're all a bit crazy.
Fortunately, this little witch will spend most of her time in Hogwarts.
Newt Scamander sympathized with Dumbledore a little, but what happened after that didn't have much to do with him. Now he just needed to figure out what the kid wanted to do and shoulder his share of responsibilities.
alright.
If you don't understand something at the moment, you can think about it later - as a wizard, the greatest convenience is that you can look through your memory from time to time and repeatedly think about and understand things that you don't understand yet.
"Well, that's okay, then I'll introduce them separately."
Elena was stunned for a moment, then understood what Newt meant and continued.
"First of all, in my understanding, I roughly divide magical animals into three colors of favorability - green favorability, white favorability, and red favorability. The classification is based on their close relationship with human society."
"Three good feelings... colors? Are they all good feelings?" Newt asked curiously.
"Like I said, I love all magical animals - they can all be beautiful."
Elena nodded quite seriously and licked her lips lightly.
"Green favorability means that there is an extremely close connection between this animal and human society. This degree of bonding may be present in every corner of our daily life. Most of them have formed a symbiotic relationship with human wizards, such as owls and toads.
, catnives, bowtruckles, pouches, goblins, house elves..."
"Puff, owl, house elf? Well, I understand what you mean."
Newt repeated thoughtfully, with growing interest, "So what are white and red?"
"White favorability, you can think of it as their life trajectories that go side by side with human society most of the time without interfering with each other. The two sides may have intersections, but they only exist between individuals, such as unicorns.
, centaurs, thunderbirds, moon-crazy beasts... You should be familiar with these magical animals."
"As for red..."
Elena narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice before Newt asked.
"If green means mutual promotion and white means no influence on each other, then the red favorability means that we have brought trouble to each other's existence. According to the mathematics in the non-magical world, it is called - mutual exclusion."
"On the one hand, it may be that human activities will have a very bad impact on them, and on the other hand, it may be that they will affect people's daily lives in some aspects, or both. With the increasing development of human society,
Development, judging from the results, seems to be trending in the same direction...endangerment, and then silent extinction."
After glancing at Newt who seemed to want to say something, Elena raised her finger and continued speaking meaningfully.
"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Scamander. I don't hate or hate them. From a personal point of view, I have no ill feelings towards all magical animals, because I also have half Veela blood flowing in my veins. But we are here
When it comes to dealing with some magical animals, stubbornness and rigid ways of thinking really bring trouble to each other."
"For example, the almost extinct Acromantula community, the spotted mangosteens that are driven away as pests, the endangered Golden Flying Man, the fire dragons imprisoned in the reserve, the increasingly rare deformed lizards..."
Elena tapped her fingers on the piles of parchment agreements on the table.
"Whether they are green, white, or red, these magical animals should have equal rights to survive in the world."
"I will not be particularly partial to a certain creature because it is on the verge of extinction, nor will I ignore my own position because a certain creature is regarded as a mate by some people... Of course, I will not sit back and watch pure malice and waste of resources.
situation occurs.”
"Because of this, I created different organizations based on different goals."
"[The Society for the Protection of Magical Creatures] focuses on the social level, focusing on the protection of magical animals, preventing cruelty to magical animals, and alleviating the suffering of magical animals in every corner of the world. To ensure the welfare of magical animals as much as possible
The principles are understood and respected around the world and are guaranteed by certain laws."
"The [Fantastic Beasts Society] focuses on the academic research level, that is, the systematic integration of what you have been doing before, researching and exploring the knowledge of magical animals, so that people can better understand other species in the world, and at the same time find ways to
Provide scientific and clear knowledge theoretical basis for organizations in other fields."
"[The Association for the Safety of Magical Creatures Products] is focused on business..."
