"Harry, please go back with Arthur first."
"But, Dumbledore."
"I still have things to sort out."
Harry walked out of the courtroom and looked back at Dumbledore.
Dumbledore winked at him as before.
Mr. Weasley was waiting outside, anxious to know the outcome.
John saw Dumbledore who had not left. Old Barty nodded slightly to John and left immediately.
"That boy disappointed me a little." Damo Alex shook his head in disappointment. He thought the legendary savior would be very different.
Looking now, he is not much different from an ordinary 15-year-old boy.
The two walked towards the door while talking.
"Sir Johnny Silverhand, may I invite you to talk?"
Dumbledore made an invitation. Damo Alex looked at Dumbledore and then at John, and said, "I'm leaving first."
John stopped, and the people in the courtroom seemed to know that this time should be reserved for the two of them, and they filed out.
Amelia slowed down and passed by the two of them, then walked out faster.
There were only two people left in the courtroom, John standing opposite Dumbledore.
"Perhaps this will make you feel better," Dumbledore said with a kind expression. "I'm sorry about that."
John looked at him and said nothing.
Dumbledore continued, "I know you are preparing something to deal with the Death Eaters, some overly aggressive methods."
"I hope we can sit down and have a good chat," he waved his hand, and two soft chairs appeared. "Maybe we are just one conversation away from each other."
He looked at John expectantly and invited him to sit down.
John looked down at the chair next to him, raised his hand and gently touched it.
"You know, Dumbledore," John said softly, stroking the smooth surface of the chair with his fingers, "I've been thinking about something these days."
"Who is Dumbledore?" He slowly raised his head and said, "The Headmaster of Hogwarts?"
"No, it's not."
"Dumbledore is a god."
He spoke with an incomprehensible look in his eyes.
"He is in control of everything, so he should let Dumbledore solve everything."
"He is full of mercy, he is full of mercy, he is like a saint...a god."
Flames ignited where the chair was touched by fingertips, and the chair was gradually enveloped.
The flames covered half of the silver mask, and John's voice became emotionless, "We should all be like this, listen to Dumbledore's words and surround him."
"John." Dumbledore was stunned.
"But God is old."
John's voice became colder and colder, "When God bleeds, God-killers will appear."
The fire was raging, and the chair quickly turned to black.
"Do you think you are a good principal?" John sneered: "The lack of internal education is a fact, Dumbledore, this is not my little temper. Your education makes it difficult for students to even have basic self-protection abilities. "
"If you are a god, you should treat all people equally and fairly. You have failed to do this."
"Do you know what is sad?"
"You have the power of a god, but the heart of a human."
“In trying to escape your shortcomings, you inadvertently foster them.”
"You can lead the entire Ministry of Magic to kill Voldemort and minimize casualties."
"But you chose to lead another team yourself, causing unnecessary tragedy."
"You run away from yourself, but you can't let go of everything."
The chair was completely burned, and the pungent burning smell filled the room.
John said, walking past the chair.
Looking at this God who wants to escape but is unwilling to give up everything.
Dumbledore's failures in life all came from his avoidance.
It was true then and it is true now.
The indulgence of Voldemort came from his compassion and a little arrogance about his own power.
Is Voldemort difficult to deal with?
No, it's not difficult.
All it takes is a strong enough person, someone who can lead the Ministry of Magic.
Dumbledore is undoubtedly the best choice.
His power was confirmed during Grindelwald's time, and the Ministry of Magic invited him to become Minister of Magic.
But he was afraid that he would be eroded by power.
He chose to recruit the Order of the Phoenix to fight back against Voldemort.
The result of this is to allow Voldemort to grow wildly.
The Death Eaters gained support from more pure-blood families and became a force that disrupted the wizarding world. Many Muggles died tragically.
At that time, the Ministry of Magic was full of talented people, and the Aurors were experienced in many battles.
The Longbottoms and others were all from there.
But Dumbledore chose to use James Potter and others who had just graduated, and was unwilling to rely on the power of the Ministry of Magic.
In terms of education, Dumbledore was also in a mess.
Knowing that Voldemort has not been completely eliminated, he adopts a completely free-range teaching method for Defense Against the Dark Arts.
The curriculum is restarted with each new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, leaving students with uneven progress.
If it weren't for the Star Club and the Three Little Ones, John could guarantee that this class of Hogwarts students would be the weakest in history.
Kindness is always used where it shouldn't be, the shortcomings of arrogance.
"Your failure is born from your contradictions."
John walked past Dumbledore and said in a calm voice, "God should stay on the altar."
Passing by, Dumbledore stood there for a long time, unable to recover.
John passed the dark door of the Department of Mysteries again.
He looked at the door, turned around and walked into the elevator.
"I will make God shed the first drop of his blood."
...
Old Barty was in a good mood and did not convict Harry Potter this time.
This matter may be big or small, but it is not enough to make people take it seriously.
It gave Dumbledore some face.
The most important thing is to remove some of Dumbledore's powers through this purpose.
Although Dumbledore is still the strongest in the wizarding world, the White Devil has taken off his crown.
"About the investigators going to Hogwarts." Old Barty looked at John eagerly, "Sir Johnny Silverhand, who do you think we should send?"
"Old Barty, you are the minister." John said with a smile, "But I do have a candidate."
"Dolores Umbridge."
"Her?" Old Barty frowned and said; "She used to be from Fudge's side."
"We need someone to check and balance Dumbledore. He is only suspended from his duties, but he has not resigned." John smiled and waved his hand, "That is not a very good job."
When Old Barty heard this, he thought it made sense. If he needed to check and balance Dumbledore, he needed someone who was not afraid of him.
Umbridge is such a person, or it can be said that she is ignorant and fearless.
So Old Barty agreed happily, and John mentioned another person by the way.
Ozzie Heard.
"To rectify education, we must also strengthen education." John said meaningfully: "Others need to see the determination of the Ministry of Magic to rectify education."
Umbridge is okay with managing people, but not with education.
Old Barty is good at it. After all, he is well taught and will work for the Ministry of Magic when he comes out.
Naturally, we cannot be careless when dealing with education issues.
After a review, a decision will be made on whether to appoint Ozzie Hilde as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.
The Ministry of Magic's involvement in educational issues at Hogwarts has been met with mixed results.
Okay, just like what John said, Dumbledore taught students and teachers in a free-range way, allowing students to rely on their talents to achieve their level. As a result, the upper limit of students was very high, but the lower limit was also very low. This time, the lower limit can be raised.
Worst of all, if a minister with evil intentions appears in the future, Hogwarts may become a cradle for political parties.
However, this problem is not serious.
Because their purpose is not to control Hogwarts education, but to exploit Dumbledore's rights.
Dumbledore, the Hogwarts Board of Directors, the Ministry of Magic.
The three parties check and balance each other.
Old Barty always just wanted to reduce some power, and did not want to completely become an enemy of Dumbledore.
So even if Dumbledore's power is reduced, Dumbledore will still be respected.
His idea was the same as John's, either let Dumbledore be a superior god or a complete human being.
Instead of occupying the position of God and acting like a human being.
After this trial, another issue was put on the table.
Dementors.
"Dementors have been serving the Ministry of Magic for many years." Old Barty frowned and said: "Dumbledore mentioned the hidden dangers of dementors, and now it seems that they do exist." m.
"It is temporarily difficult to find the existence of the Dementors."
Dementors are not only guards, they also act like inhibitors, making the prisoners in Azkaban less energetic and thinking about causing trouble.
This peculiarity is hard to see in other magical creatures.
...
Some people died, but not completely...
