Chapter 88 Salami and the Magical World
Chapter 88 Salami and the Magical World
After class, William and the others walked down the winding stairs of the astronomy tower.
"Interesting, in this week's arithmetic and divination class, Professor Victor also told us that even though divination through mathematics is a very rigorous prediction, sometimes there will be situations that are completely impossible to interpret.
It's like the moon is empty. "
Penello held her schoolbag and said easily.
She seems to be in a good mood today, and she is wearing a light perfume, which is a product from "Nymph".
"But I still think that divination is an overrated discipline, even if the results of the predictions are presented in the form of mathematics rather than constellations."
William remembers that in his previous life, some of his classmates liked to study astrology, and would label people according to the astrology. For example, a Leo must be a megalomaniac, and an obsessive-compulsive disorder would be suspected of being a Virgo.
"In the final analysis, it's like a trick similar to a gypsy witch, or a psychic, or a flyover demigod, but it's just using the Barnum effect."
It is easy to believe that one's personality is described in a generalized form, and that it suits him particularly and characterizes him accurately, even though in reality the passage is quite empty.
You want to get attention from others.
You feel that your potential has not been fully developed, but you also look forward to an opportunity to express yourself.
Although your appearance looks tough and you always stick to your principles, you have a heart that yearns for romance and freedom.
This kind of nonsense, given William 10 minutes, he can make up a model essay of the length of the college entrance examination composition.
"But the fun of divination is not knowing the future, but the feeling you can experience when verifying this possibility-it's like eating Bibi multi-flavored beans.
That sense of anticipation is what matters. "
Penello glanced at William.
Her words reminded William of some mobile game manufacturers in his previous life—mixed pools, no guarantees, and crooked probabilities, but he still felt that this was a very cool thing.
Is this reasonable?
"Fortunately, there are no krypton gold mobile games in the world."
William suddenly felt a little fortunate, "But wizards' means of entertainment are too limited. Apart from wizard chess, gobstones, and Quidditch, the only activities that are usually accessible are reading books and listening to the radio—no wonder Luo Hart's book will sell so well."
Some time ago, he had borrowed Lockhart's book "Walking with Ghouls" from the library. Even though it was said to be Lockhart's most satisfying work, the reading experience he brought to William was still the same. It can only be described as lackluster.
It tells a boring story that can only be rated as a 3 in the sense of a novel with barely emotional words.Perhaps the only commendable point is the authenticity of it as an autobiography.
If it weren't for the fact that selling pirated books in the wizarding world is a very dangerous industry, and it is extremely easy for Aurors to be rooted along the Internet, it would not be his turn to become the most famous best-selling author in the UK.
"Wizards have obviously stolen radio stations, and invented special magic so that they can be used even if they are not plugged in. Why can't they also steal TVs, movies and the like?"
William couldn't help being a little curious.
"Of course they want to do that. Professor. I mean Quirrell once said in class that the wizards had introduced radio, but there were people who wanted to introduce more, like television or something. "
Penello replied that they had reached the first floor of the castle and were walking towards the entrance hall.
"Then why are there no TVs until now?"
Making TV magic is not inherently more difficult than broadcasting.Because even if wizards can't play programs synchronously, they can at least consider "paying tribute" to the DVD players that play CDs.
"They wanted to do it, but there has been no progress, and it is said that this is influenced by people who are very close to the Minister of Magic.
Of course, what is officially acknowledged by the Ministry of Magic is that Magic TV is a misuse of Muggle items that would seriously threaten the security of the Statute of Secrecy. "
Penello recalled the content of the class at that time and answered him.
"At least the statement from the Ministry of Magic can help us rule out a wrong answer." William shrugged.
In the magic world, perhaps because most wizards can live for a long time, and are involved in many industries run by pure-blood families, the conservative forces are particularly strong.
Any change will face resistance.
The appearance of "Nymph" has slightly touched some people's nerves - if William hadn't gone to feed the editors of those magazines for a round in advance, I am afraid that various articles criticizing him would have been flying all over the sky.
"It's no wonder that when Grindelwald wanted to overthrow the entire magical world and establish a new order, he was resisted by the entire European magical world. However, Voldemort, who advocated the theory of blood and wanted to rule ordinary people, was accepted by the pure-blood family and actively joined him. Under his command, become a Death Eater."
William was thinking, since he came to Hogwarts, or since he realized that it was difficult for him to return to Earth, he has been thinking about a question.
- "What should I do?"
Although he has not gotten a specific answer so far, William is very clear that he does like magic, but he has no good impression of the magic world, whether it is British or American.
The entire magic world is rotten like a bottle of red wine that has been stored for 100 years. Although it once had a very deep foundation, the charm it presents now is not even as good as a jar of soy sauce.
It has to get some changes.
Even if it's just to make William feel comfortable.
The establishment of "Nymph" was his first attempt, and at least so far, it was considered a success.It proves that wizards, at least most wizards, are actually strangers to the world of ordinary people, but they are not in conflict.
What they need is proper guidance.
"Grindelwald gathered his saints to overthrow the card table by force, and Voldemort used the power of fear to recruit a group of traditional pure-blood wizard families.
But they all failed. If I want to make some changes, it must not be the above two, but it should be through gradual penetration. "
Culture, thought, consciousness, and even living habits are all more powerful weapons than magic wands.
What William hopes to do is to absorb, transform, and sublimate the achievements of the ordinary people's world in a form that wizards can understand, with the help of alchemy, spells, runes, and other means.
Like cutting a piece of salami.
When the old-fashioned wizards really realized the threat from William, it was too late for them to make a final response—either bite the bullet and try to adapt, or be eliminated by society and gradually fade away.
"Then the new question is.
If I have to become the third generation of the Dark Lord in the future, what should I call my team? "
William suddenly thought of such a question.
Saints, Death Eaters, and later turned into social animals, is the style of painting too sudden?
"We'll be there soon."
Penello rubbed his hands excitedly and said.
She still couldn't imagine how William, who had only been here for a few months as a transfer student, could persuade Professor Dumbledore to allow him to carry out such a big project at Hogwarts.
