Chapter 13 House Elf Rights Promotion Association?
Brian was not too worried about the Soul-Snatching Curse, and it had no effect on him.
However, for the sake of the mental health of friends, Brian still identified whether his friends had any signs of being captured by the Soul-Snatching Curse.
Eventually, he found that Brees was under control and was asked to monitor Brees' movements. While clashing with Brees's spell, Moody gave up his control over Brees, regaining his freedom.
As for Brees... Poor guy, Brian chanted him a forgetful spell to avoid him being too upset.
In the following time, Brian added knowledge step by step, practiced taking God's mind, and thought about creating a flying mantra.
The curse that you can fly without relying on flying brooms, flying carpets, etc., relying solely on yourself.
There is no such spell at the moment. Brian only knows that Voldemort created a flying spell that can enable him to transform into black fog and fly at a speed of not bad. It seems to be a profound black magic. Snape learned this magic from Voldemort, allowing him to fly in the air like a real big bat.
Now Brian has the ability to create the curse of flying. He has already had a way of thinking, but it will take some time.
In addition, it is to create some spells that are truly suitable for you, which are not easily restrained and can truly play a greater role at the level of the master.
However, after an arithmetic divination class, Hermione stopped him.
"Is there anything wrong, Hermione?" Brian seemed a little surprised.
"That... cough..." Hermione coughed lightly, took out a badge from her pocket and said seriously, "That's right, Brian, I founded an organization for the promotion of the rights and interests of domestic elfs. Now I officially invite you to join!"
As she said that, she showed the dark green badge in her hand, which read: s.p.e.w..
Brian blinked, slightly confused.
"The Promotion Association for the Rights of Domestic Elfs!" Hermione said with great fighting spirit, "The purpose is to prohibit cruel abuse of domestic elves and improve their legal status! I think the short-term goal is to ensure that elves get reasonable wages and a good working environment. The long-term goal includes modifying the law that elves are not allowed to use magic wands, and also striving to allow some elves to enter the Fantastic Beast Management and Control Division..."
Brian's expression became more and more bizarre, and he said softly: "I don't think you should waste your time on such things, Hermione."
Hermione looked at him angrily, and said with annoyance: "Bryan, do you think this kind of slavery is natural? Those conscientious domestic elves have been treated cruelly..."
"Well... I think I agree with the fact that those house elves do not need to be cruelly abused." Brian whispered, "But, in fact, few of them are really abused. After all, house elves are very expensive..."
"But fighting for their rights...it's not a wise approach, Hermione." Brian looked at her seriously.
"I know that wizards have a deep prejudice against elves, but someone needs to stand up!" Hermione said in dissatisfaction.
"This is not the problem, Hermione." Brian watched the students around him hurriedly and rubbed his eyebrows, "The reason is that the house elves are a wise race with the power of magic."
Hermione frowned tightly, looking at him with sharp eyes, as if looking at some stubborn old antique.
"We can protect magical animals and give mercy to pets. The reason for this is that they do not have the wisdom like humans, no profound magic, and no threat to us." Brian said his thoughts, "But the domestic elves are different. They are intelligent races like humans."
"The ancient wizards paid the price of blood to completely defeat the elves and let them integrate into the wizarding world. This is the success, the king and the defeat, Hermione. If the wizards had failed at the beginning, our ending would probably be no different." Brian looked at the little witch in front of him seriously.
Hermione's brows frowned even more, and she retorted: "But now they are no longer threatening, loyal to the wizards, we just need to improve their lives..."
"So what later?" Brian looked at her, "Will they want more after giving them wages? The answer is, yes... human desires are endless, and this can be extended to all intelligent races."
"When they have wages, they will ask for leave. When they have vacations, they will demand a good working environment, the right to use a wand, the ability to participate in decision-making, freedom and equality, and the right to be equal to a wizard..."
"Isn't this good?" Hermione said.
"It's not good, do you know what this means? It's another race that looks like a fairy." Brian smiled, "There is a saying in the East that if you are not my race, your heart will be different. It's not wrong at all..."
"We cannot satisfy all the demands they make, and will even suppress their development, because we cannot watch a wise race gradually catch up with us. So what will they think at this time? After being oppressed... so, resistance begins..." Brian sighed.
"The magic of house elves is actually very special and powerful. Many wizards do not have much resistance to their magic."
"I think you know the history of the goblin rebellion. The goblin resisted the wizard for his own rights..." Brian said, "At that time, how many people died because of this, you also know... You want to lay the seeds of freedom for the elves, but the result will not be so beautiful. The future wizards and elves may have to pay the price of bleeding."
Hermione pursed her lips, looking a little struggling, disagreeing, and unable to refute.
"So, we do not have much right to mercy for the same intelligent race. All the peace now is exchanged for the ancient wizards with their blood and life. They eradicated and even domesticated all ethnic groups that threaten humanity. I think we do not have the right to subvert all this now."
"Unless..." Brian thought for a while.
"Unless what?" Hermione's expression turned sharp.
"Unless we become stronger, so strong that they can no longer threaten us, we have the right to pity them." Brian smiled, "But now you will never be recognized if you want to bring the seeds of freedom to the elves."
Hermione's expression became a little entangled and lost.
"Instead of spending energy on the matter of elf, why not think about ourselves? Think about more practical and imminent problems." Brian said thoughtfully.
"What's the problem?" Hermione said in a daze.
"The issue of Muggles and Wizards, and... the International Wizard Secretariat." Brian said slowly.
"Is there any problem?" Hermione frowned and thought.
"The problem is very big. It can be said that all the problems come from this." Brian whispered, "The wizard has been locked in the wizarding world for too long, Hermione. This lifeless wizarding world is like a prison. Even if it is not small, it does limit the wizard's freedom."
"Hide in the narrow wizard world, carefully avoid being discovered by Muggles... She clearly has strong personal power, but she has to be forced to hide." Brian sighed softly, "So, too many people are dissatisfied with the wizard secrets, so Grindelwald, the first generation of Dark King, swept the world and received support from a large number of wizards."
"But obviously, he failed, and this dissatisfaction was not eased, but was suppressed by violence." Brian continued, "so, dissatisfaction with the secret law turned into resentment towards Muggles, and the theory of pure blood was rampant and developed like never before."
"In the end, the second generation of Dark King appeared, and it was easy to get the support of many wizards, which once again brought fear and killing to the wizarding world."
"Even if he was defeated, this concept has not yet disappeared. You should have a deep understanding, Hermione." Brian said calmly.
Hermione thoughtfully said, "Is it really because of the wizard's secret method?"
"The big reason is that. In fact, many wizard families that promote pure blood now have close relationships with Muggles before the wizard secrets were introduced." Brian smiled, "For example, the Malfoy family, in fact, they have worked closely with Muggles and have also obtained Muggles' titles."
Hermione's eyes widened, obviously feeling a little incredible.
"But with the promulgation of the Wizard Secretariat Act, everything changed. Although it protected the wizards from the persecution of Muggles, it also spawned too many dissatisfaction and resentment, and eventually gave birth to two generations of Dark Kings." Brian said, "Maybe we can continue to hide in the wizarding world. Muggles will not have the ability to discover us for a long time...but this just cannot solve any problem."
"Perhaps, there will be a third and fourth generation of Dark Lords to lead those who are dissatisfied with the status quo to resist it." Brian smiled, "When anyone succeeds, he will not be a Dark Lord, but a...changer who leads the wizarding world to dawn."
"This is a spirit of resistance rooted in the blood of the intelligent race. The more oppressed it is, the more violent it will explode." Brian said, "I think if you really...uh, I'm more idle, I think it would be more practical for you to consider this."
Hermione nodded in dismay and walked away in a daze.
Looking at the girl's trance back, Brian shook his head helplessly. This is to find something for Hermione to do, so that she can't help but make it easy for the elf to fight for freedom.
Hermione slowly returned to the auditorium, looking upset. She looked at the badge in her hand, left it on the table, and ate supper voraciously.
"What's wrong, Hermione?" Ron said, "You're finally going to give up this stupid 'vomiting'... Cough cough... Household elf rights promotion association?"
"What?" Hermione raised her head impatiently and frowned at him, "Okay, I have to think about it, maybe I wasn't very thoughtful..." She stuffed her last bite of supper into her mouth and hurriedly left.
"Where are you going, Hermione?" Harry shouted.
"Go to the library!" Hermione replied and ran away.
"What did she think of again?" Harry said helplessly.
