A Hogwarts Esoteric Leader

"Grindelwald was a very talented man," Professor Binns said. "I don't think he's actually really evil in the strict sense."

"Not an evil person in the strict sense?" Unieff frowned, he felt that Grindelwald had gone too far.

Attacked him, attacked the Leaky Cauldron, robbed Yindleshi.

Although I saw the scene of Grindelwald treating Hindlesh last night, if he hadn't kidnapped him, Hindlesh would not have been tormented by this.

The cause and the effect, the cause and the effect, Yunefuo can clearly distinguish.

But Professor Binns said: "Yes, although there may be some personal emotion in it, because he is very similar to a man I know, and in terms of motivation, he is just a person who has been carried away by his own grand ideals. people."

He added: "Also, his ideals have now been basically shattered, so he locked himself in Nurmengard."

Yunev couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is his ideal?"

Professor Binns smiled and said, "Overturn the International Statute of Secrecy and establish a benevolent new global order led by wise and powerful witches and wizards."

"Benevolence?" Eugene had to notice that this word really didn't match his impression.

"Yes, kind." However, Professor Binns affirmed, "He predicted World War II in the Muggle world. In that prophecy, he saw the brutal war of Muggles, and the war reflected in that war. , is no longer the paediatric thing of the nineteenth century, but a force more than a sorcerer."

He looked over and said solemnly: "You may not understand it well, you think Muggles are a weak race, but in fact, Muggles have spread to every corner of the world like air. We wizards only occupy A little corner."

Unieff smiled and said, "Professor, I'm a Muggle."

Professor Binns couldn't help looking at him several times, and said, "That's convenient, otherwise I wouldn't have a good way to explain it. After all, I can't cast a spell right now."

He continued: "In short, Grindelwald predicted this terrible power, and he believed that if Muggles with this terrible power, if one day realized the existence of the wizarding world, it would inevitably bring disaster to wizards. ."

Univer thought about it, and felt that Grindelwald's worries were not necessarily unreasonable.

Although wizards are still far superior to Muggles in some technologies, the difference in population base between the two has already determined that technology will develop faster than magic.

You must know that there are only more than 40 freshmen at Hogwarts this year, and even if they are all geniuses, there are only more than 40.

And how many geniuses are there in the Muggle world in a year?

He nodded in agreement.

Professor Binns said: "This prophecy was widely circulated at the time, so it caused a lot of discussion in the wizarding community."

"At that time, there were two trends of thought that were rampant. The first trend was to further strengthen the Secrecy Act and completely isolate the wizarding world from the Muggle world. Generally speaking, the Ministry of Magic of various countries was more inclined to this idea."

"And the second trend of thought is to break the "Secret Law" and use World War II as an opportunity to establish the dominance of wizards on a global scale. Grindelwald is this view."

Having said that, he instinctively went to get the tea cup on the table, but suddenly stopped, seemed to realize that he was a ghost, and sighed.

"Which view would you support?" he asked, tilting his head.

Unieff thought for a moment, then said, "None of them are supported."

Professor Binns adjusted his glasses and seemed a little surprised. He paused and asked, "Tell me why?"

Unieff said his thoughts: "Complete closure and isolation do not exist. Sooner or later, Muggles will discover wizards, it is only a matter of time. However, even so, the wizarding community cannot be destroyed, on the contrary, it will be regarded as a special Those who are able are given preferential treatment. The standard of living of the wizard will even improve several levels.”

Professor Binns was silent, and after a while, he said, "Perhaps, this is the most normal thought. But at the time, neither Grindelwald nor the Ministry of Magic of various countries thought about it."

Or in other words, unwilling to think about this, Yunevo thought, after all, this is equivalent to being supported by Muggles.

To put it simply, it's downgrading.

Thinking of this, he sighed imperceptibly.

People are bound by such illusory things, and sometimes he himself is like this. Even if he has the idea of ​​lying flat in his heart, he still can't do it in practice.

Professor Binns continued: "In short, Grindelwald has attracted a group of supporters with his ideas and charisma. In the eyes of those people, Grindelwald is the patron saint of the wizarding world."

"The patron saint, of course, cannot be evil," he said, "but the question is, who are the people he attracts?"

"He attracted some radicals, and he was a radical himself, and his organization became a radical organization."

"And radicals are called radicals because they are only a minority. Most wizards are still happy to live under the protection of the International Statute of Secrecy."

"However, Grindelwald also saw this."

He paused, as if waiting for Unieff to ask a question.

Univer was also very generous: "Grindelwald also saw this?"

Professor Binns happily wanted to pick up the teacup, but his fingers passed through the cup again.

He sighed and said: "Grindelwald saw this too, but he still insisted that World War II was the best opportunity of a lifetime. Once this opportunity was missed, it was impossible for wizards to dominate again, so he still initiated ill-timed violent reforms."

"So, he failed as a matter of course. Although his power flourished for a while, countless wizards also lost their peaceful and peaceful lives because of him, and these wizards became his enemies. In that case, no matter how strong he is , and there is no spare energy to stir up the disturbance in the Muggle world."

"With the end of World War II in 1945, Grindelwald lost what he thought was his best chance. Before him, there was only infighting between wizards."

Professor Binns looked out the window~www.readwn.com~ It was already dark outside.

He said: "It was also that year that Dumbledore beat Grindelwald."

Unieff savoured it carefully and looked at Professor Binns: "What do you mean?"

Professor Binns waved his hand and said, "It's just a personal guess. I haven't asked Dumbledore what the specific situation is."

"However, you should probably be able to understand why I say that Grindelwald is not an evil person in the strict sense."

Unieff nodded.

"So," Professor Binns smiled, "I'm quite surprised that you said that the one who attacked you was the one from Grindelwald."

"Not to mention, those followers of his back then were too old and scattered, and even if there were some left, there was no reason to attack you."

"I think that even if there are ten silently placed in front of him now, he is unlikely to be tempted, because, for him, the most important thing is not the matter of strength, but that his ideal has completely lost its foundation. "

However--

Yunevo looked at the fire, the fire was burning fiercely, with no intention of going out.

In fact, he is now more certain that everything is exactly what Grindelwald did.

Because Grindelwald really wasn't interested in him, he just used him as a bait to lure away the Ministry of Magic.

In addition, the dark wizard who attacked him also happened to be an old man, and even the dragon was an old dragon.

And the Leaky Cauldron Bar completely collapsed, but no one was injured...

It fits perfectly with Grindelwald's message.

Plus, Hendraich was indeed in Nurmengard.

It's Grindelwald, there's nothing wrong with that.

But the question is, if Grindelwald is not interested in power, why did he take Hindleich?
