Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 123: Things that should be dealt with in the end but have not yet been dealt with



Dudley understood who Abel was referring to, and also understood the irritation and anger in his heart.

During the events in Selemuni these past few months, although Dudley had been opposing Abel and Bernard for a long time, it was difficult for him to characterize these two Aurors as evil and villains— —After all, they have been eager to solve the case quickly, but they have been led in the wrong direction by their own arrogance and prejudice.

Judging from the conversation with them when they first met, the reason why they went further and further in the wrong direction was because they never doubted those Muggles - they never thought that Muggles would do such things as dark magic. Something more sinister.

The Muggles in the witch-hunting organization were obviously the most guilty people in this incident besides Nagini. Nagini only provided them with a way to vent their evil thoughts, while they themselves gradually degenerated into cannibalism. It was so difficult for Dudley to classify them as victims.

"The Ministry of Magic's opinion on dealing with these Muggles is to use powerful amnesia spells to delete their memories of the past few months." Abel's voice gradually turned cold, "It's ironic, after killing so many people, and also... After committing the heinous crime of cannibalism, they can actually live the rest of their lives as if nothing happened."

Dudley didn't know how to respond to Abel's words. He knew that for the French Ministry of Magic, erasing their memories was undoubtedly the best option.After all, most of the victims' family and friends are ordinary Muggles and will not know the truth of the matter, nor will they pursue the actions of these witch-hunting organizations.

But with the exception of two people, one is Sims who is imprisoned in the French Ministry of Magic, and the other is Abel next to Dudley.

"The boy named Himes was arrested by Bernard and I personally." Abel said in a hoarse voice: "But the irony is that now I very much agree with his actions - he did nothing wrong, then These beasts are all damn scum."

"What will happen to Seamus next?" Dudley asked softly.

"Nurmengard." Abel said in a deep voice, "Even if he already knows what those Muggles did, it is an indisputable fact that Himes killed the Muggles - and he did not defend himself. Instead, he offered to go to Nurmengard, perhaps because his idol is there."

"The Ministry of Magic is also very satisfied with the result. They believe that in this era, it is a shame for Muggles to attack wizards, so they decided to put Himes in prison as soon as possible."

"Of course, I am in a similar situation." Abel said mockingly, "Although as Bernard's partner, I also received an honor that did not belong to me. But after I resigned as Auror, they gave me The new position assigned was to go to Nurmengard as warden—actually no different than locking me up there.”

"Actually, that's fine... let me stay away from this place." Abel narrowed his eyes, with a chill in his voice, "After all, if I stay here for a little longer, I'm afraid I'll do something. Stupid thing."

After saying that, Abel closed his mouth, and silence fell between the two again.Dudley felt that Abel seemed to be looking at him, waiting for something, but after a moment, a disappointed expression appeared on Abel's face.

Afterwards, Abel stood up and patted the dirt on his body: "I'm sorry for taking up your time... I will take up my new position in two days, and I will escort the boy by the way. So I have been Who do you want to complain to? Thank you for your patience and listening.”

Just when Abel was about to leave, Dudley felt something strange in his heart that he didn't want to say.

"If the Ministry of Magic's amnesia spell is an order to eliminate memories related to magic, it may not have a good effect on those Muggles - the way Nagini controls them has nothing to do with magic. And cannibalism is already part of their body Instinctively, if someone’s flesh is in front of them, they can’t control their desires.”

Dudley's words are not unfounded. In the movie "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the United States Department of Magic performs memory correction on memories about magic.And this is easy to understand. After all, it is impossible to completely erase the memory of several months. It must only be modified for part of it.

Able paused, looked at Dudley meaningfully, opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to say something, but still didn't say anything.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want to remind you because I'm afraid you may have made some mistakes in your work." Dudley looked at Abel and whispered, "I wish you a safe journey to your new position."

Abel looked at Dudley deeply, but said nothing.Then he turned around and strode away without looking back.

Dudley took a deep breath. He probably knew what his words to Abel just meant, and he also understood that what he did was definitely not fair.

But if they don't, those in the witch hunt will get away with it - because the Muggle world has not discovered their crimes, and the wizarding world has no intention of trying them.

Dudley didn't want to see this happen from the bottom of his heart.

Dudley sighed. What he said to Abel may be his first step in the gray area - and often after taking the first step, he may continue to walk in the future.

"Are you done talking?" When Dudley returned to the house, he saw Dumbledore looking at him meaningfully, "It's nothing important."

"It's nothing, he just reflected on his behavior." Dudley said softly, "The death of his companion was a big blow to him, so he just wanted to talk to me who witnessed the death of his companion."

"Well... Aurors are a profession that walks between black and white. It is difficult to summarize them with a simple binary theory of good and evil." Dumbledore sighed and said slowly, "I have to admit , the world needs this kind of people to punish the worse evildoers."

"Professor Dumbledore, do you think we have the right to decide the life and death of others in accordance with our own values ​​and beyond trial?"

"As an educator, I should have given you a negative answer." Dumbledore narrowed his eyes and stared at Dudley through his half-moon lenses.

"But you can think about it - take Voldemort, whether in this world or another world you know, has his crimes been tried by anyone?"

Dudley's heart trembled, and he understood what Dumbledore meant.

"Don't think too highly of me, Dudley... I am also a mortal, and I am much more selfish than you think." Dumbledore patted Dudley on the shoulder and said softly, "This is what I have always said. Reason for refusing to hold power - being an educator suits me better.”

"I don't value you because I think you are kind-hearted or upright. I just have a strong selfish desire to protect the people and things I think are important, and I think the people and things you and I think are important. , it just happens that the degree of overlap is relatively high.”
