Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 7: A war without a winner (7)

Chapter 1557 A War without a Winner (7)

Kingsley immediately informed the entire British wizarding community through the Daily Prophet of the good news that Voldemort was dead.

However, after this good news gradually spread in the UK, it did not bring joy and laughter to the wizards as it did after the victory of the First Wizarding War. Instead, it plunged the entire British wizarding world into a strange dead silence. Anyone who doesn't know may suspect that the killed Voldemort is the savior.

The reason why the entire British wizarding community had such a weird reaction was because the pain caused to them by the Second Wizarding War was so unforgettable that most wizards in the UK were too painful to laugh.

Of course, it is also possible that the brutality of the final battle at Hogwarts frightened all the wizards who learned the news, and naturally no one was in a good mood to celebrate this hard-won victory.

But after the good news that "Voldemort is dead" spread throughout the British wizarding world through the "Daily Prophet", it still had a visible impact.

The original tense atmosphere caused by Voldemort disappeared instantly, and wizards began to fly their own owls to try to communicate with acquaintances. The guys who have regained their courage are no longer as timid as usual. After gradually letting go of their hands and feet, some wizards plan to form a group to go to Hogwarts and want to see the Wizard Observation Station with their own eyes. News on the radio.

However, for their own safety, most people did not go directly to Hogwarts, but went to Hogsmeade Village halfway, because according to reliable information, this is the only remaining wizarding village in the UK. It had been completely destroyed in the previous war. They didn't need to risk getting close. They could easily determine the authenticity of the news by just observing it from a distance using telescopes.

When people saw the ruins of the completely destroyed Hogsmeade village from a distance, they probably believed the authenticity of the news broadcast by the Wizard's Observatory, especially when they sneaked closer to the tragic battlefield to try for further confirmation. In an instant, he was stunned by the large number of dark wizard corpses lying on the ground before he had time to clean them up, and what followed was a longer silence.

Hogwarts is obviously even more miserable, so much so that they no longer care about Hogsmeade.

After witnessing the tragic situation in Hogsmeade, some wizards chose to stay and help clean up the ruins after the war, while others planned to continue to Hogwarts.

Then, they were once again shocked and stunned by the pile of dark wizard corpses outside the oak gate. Some guys with poor psychological quality even vomited under the disgusted eyes of many people. In the end, these people had no choice but to flee Hogwarts in despair with psychological shadow.

Most professors are very calm about this, and they all know that this is actually the norm in the magic world.

There are very few people who can truly withstand the pressure of this tragic war, and even fewer who are willing to stay at Hogwarts to help clean up the mess.

After all, most people will subconsciously leave the mess they don't want to deal with to others instead of taking the initiative to help solve the problem together.

However, few wizards are willing to stay and help clean up the mess. In fact, there is another reason.

A certain unlucky guy who was unwilling to listen to Filch's advice inexplicably lost his life because he broke into the poisonous weed area that was previously arranged to deal with dark wizards.

As soon as this news spread, it gave the wizards who came to Hogwarts a huge shock of war, and also caused those wizards who were trying to obtain first-hand information from Hogwarts to flee the school.

No one wants to make fun of their own life. God knows if there are other more dangerous traps in the school. Especially after linking this matter with the mountain of corpses at the door, it is really difficult for everyone not to think too much.

After all, the disparity in numbers between the enemy and ourselves is so great that it is really hard to believe that the rebels who stayed behind at Hogwarts only sacrificed nearly a hundred people to kill ten times the number of enemies.

Anyone with a little bit of brains knows what a dark wizard is. No matter how miserable those guys were, they should not have died in groups at Hogwarts, let alone at the hands of a group of young students.

Hogwarts is not a place to train executioners.

The dark wizards did not form a group to die.

The only possibility is that he accidentally fell into a trap and was killed directly.

For this reason, the news that hundreds of werewolves were trapped and killed on the viaduct quickly spread among wizards, which really gave everyone the shock of a small war.

After this incident was confirmed, the original criticism of Albert's murder was reversed.

After all, no one really wants to have a reputation of being a murderer and having people criticize him behind his back. Even if all he kills are enemies, that situation still cannot be avoided.

Humans are such creatures.

Fortunately, things are changing for the better, which makes Albert quite pleased.

Another thing that is quietly changing is people's attitude towards house elves. The wizards who participated in the final battle knew very well the huge role that the kitchen house elves played in the entire battle. Many people have even been saved by house elves, and they have had this friendship of fighting side by side. House elves have gained the respect of these wizards, at least no one will treat them as slaves anymore.

This also allows Hermione to see the dawn of victory. Although many people think her S.P.E.W. (Society for the Promotion of House Elf Rights) is too stupid, Hermione still thinks this is a great victory.

Of course, she knew very well that this was not a victory for her, but for Albert, but as long as things went in a good direction, it was enough for him.

"So, you still plan to join the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures?"

While enjoying dinner, Albert listened to Hermione describe her plan and gave her some useful suggestions. Although he felt that Hermione did not need his advice, Albert was still willing to Take the time to chat with them about future plans.

"I'm hesitating."

"Are you really not going to go directly to the Ministry of Magic?" Ron threw down the half-eaten piece of bread and looked at Hermione in shock.

"I should stay at school for the last year." Hermione did not look at Ron, but looked sideways at Albert, hoping to ask for his opinion.

"This is indeed an opportunity, but there are still many problems in the Ministry of Magic, especially becoming a temporary Auror, which requires taking certain risks." After finishing the small amount of food on the plate, Albert declined the hand from the house elf. After arriving for dessert, he continued, "Of course, if I insist on saying so, it would be a good thing for you to stay away from the turmoil in the Ministry of Magic. As for how to choose, as long as you don't regret it afterwards."

"I still plan to stay in school. I have asked Professor McGonagall." Hermione had already made her decision.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Ron complained.

"If you and Harry miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to realize the Auror dream through formal means." Hermione saw it clearly than anyone else.

"What about you?" Harry asked suddenly.

"I'm not short of money. ~IndoMTL.com~ Albert said things that would make Ron choke to death.

"Actually, they just want to use my reputation for killing Voldemort." Albert said softly, "If you could wake up earlier, you might be able to avenge Voldemort with your own hands."

"Even if I can wake up early, I won't take risks again." Harry turned his head to look at Ginny, not forgetting to express his gratitude to Albert, "After all, I finally saved my life, there is no need to take any more risks." Go and take the risk of taking advantage of it. It is safest for you to kill Voldemort. Dumbledore can see clearly."

"It seems that I no longer have to feel guilty for taking the head that belongs to you." Albert said in a joking tone.

"The time for Ginny and I to get married has been set." Harry laughed dryly and changed the subject, "Just a few days after Ginny's birthday."

"Although there are still a few months left, I can't guarantee you that your house will be built in time." Albert reminded kindly, "After all, how many houses will need to be built by then? People are asking for help, but even if the house can be built in advance, it is still not suitable for living."
