LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 693 - Discussion and outlook
“Ah, sorry.” After half an hour of whispers, Professor Dumbledore took off his glasses and wiped them, then said. “I’m sorry. Older people sometimes like to remember the past and keep you two waiting for a long time.”
“It doesn’t matter, Professor.” Ryan said with a smile. “From the stories you just told, we know a lot of things that we never knew before, which is conducive to our next move.”
“Oh, what did you hear?” Dumbledore looked at Ryan curiously with his blue eyes. He had just said those things. On the one hand, it was indeed a bit gaffe, and on the other hand, he hoped to pass one of the stories. One person reminded Ryan that the people they killed in the war also had family members and friends. They were all alive people, not just an abstract concept such as a brutal Death Eater.
So Dumbledore was now very curious about what Ryan had gotten from the words he had just made, so he put his elbows on the table and made a serious listening gesture.
“I found that the connections between wizards in Britain far exceeded my previous imagination.” Ryan said that from Professor Dumbledore’s story, Ryan found that the networks of pure-blood families built were more complicated than they thought. many.
It also reminded him that even in the original text, even if the contradiction between the two parties has reached the point, but in the seventh year, pure blood like Neville and Ginny can still be taught in school. Even if they organized resistance activities, those Death Eaters did not hurt their lives. This is not a simple one, and the reason for not wanting to waste the life of a pure-blood wizard can be explained.
“For us, this means that there are still many things we have to do to avoid harming those innocent people.” Ryan looked at Dumbledore’s statement, “I think there should be many people asking you to restrain us Behavior, stop killing. “
“Yes,” Professor Dumbledore nodded and admitted, “Someone asked me here to stop your kind of killing and destruction. Children, know that any killing will leave an indelible mark on the soul. Scars. Of course, I ’m not asking you to take into account a lot of things in combat, that is unreasonable. I just hope that you can reduce some killings within your ability. “
“We are not killers, you can see from our previous actions that we did not even harm the house elves who attacked us, because they attack us only as a result of being ordered, they are just Tools only. “Ryan explained. “Everyone we killed has definite evidence that they should indeed die!”
“No one of us has the right to decide the lives of others, no one.” Principal Dumbledore raised his voice, “So it is an inappropriate act for you to execute the deadly Death Eaters after the war.”
“So what should we do?” Ryan discovered that Dumbledore was not shy about killing enemies in battle. After all, he was also a person who had experienced many brutal wars, whether it be wizards or Muggles. But he hopes that everything can run in a certain order, such as trying those criminals and punishing them according to the crime. Instead of direct execution like the original **** revenge.
“I don’t know.” Unexpectedly, Dumbledore did not preach as before, but shook his head in distress. “After all, when you are surrounded by enemies, you still have to protect those hostages from leaving. It is not appropriate to force you to bring those people back to trial. This will put you in danger. If you let them go, they will Will cause more casualties later. “
“Yes, this is the biggest problem we encountered, Professor.” Hermione added. “Killing is indeed a terrible choice, but this method can ensure that they will never do evil again, and no innocent people will be hurt.”
“You guys-alas!” Professor Dumbledore sighed for a long time. In the war years, many things could not achieve the perfect ending, even if it was Professor Dumbledore who was known as the most powerful white wizard. In the face of the current situation, there is no solution that can achieve the best of both worlds.
After all, this has been the principal for many years. Dumbledore, who is more than 100 years old, is not a saint, but he is a really good person. So from his standpoint, he couldn’t accuse Ryan of wrongly protecting their innocent Muggles, even if such behavior was accompanied by killing. At the same time, he can’t deny that Ryan’s previous methods, although radical, were a very reasonable choice at that time.
“Okay, we won’t discuss this topic anymore.” Dumbledore waved weakly, and a tired feeling appeared from his body. The core of the wizarding world is still power, so for Ryan, this power is basically the same level as him, and is obviously a friendly person. Dumbledore could only use persuasion instead of forcing orders.
So when he found that he couldn’t find a reason for persuasion that he had internally recognized, Dumbledore automatically gave up the discussion of the question just now and began to talk about the next question. In his eyes, defeating Voldemort and restoring the order of the British magic world are the most important. Some things that are not satisfactory in the process can be temporarily put aside.
Not to mention Ryan ’s killings did not conform to the principal ’s ethics, but from another perspective, the damage caused by Ryan ’s previous actions attracted the attention of Voldemort and the Death Eaters. Reduced the pressure on Dumbledore’s side.
“In addition to the question about the killing just now, there is your previous behavior on the destruction of manor and plantations everywhere. I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation.” Soon Professor Dumbledore asked in a good mood The next question. “Your destruction can’t be repaired in a short time, and even the damage in many places is almost the same as the reconstruction.”
“You know, these ancient magic plant plantations and miraculous creature breeding gardens ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ The house elf workshop and mines are an important part of the British magic world, and also one of the heritage of the British magic world. If you do this, we will lose a lot even if the war is won. “
“But that’s something we need to consider after the victory of our war, isn’t it?” Ryan said solemnly. “If we can’t completely cut off the sources of Death Eater’s wealth, I don’t think we need to consider the future of the British magic world. Moreover, these estates have now been mortgaged to American wizards, to be precise, they do not belong to Britain. “
“After destroying those estates, we not only cut off part of the cash flow and material flow of the Death Eaters. At the same time, it also caused a lot of bad debts to the American Guling Pavilion and the American Magic Congress that were standing behind the Death Eaters. In the Atlantic On the premise that the cousins of our group are unwilling to go directly to the battle, a large number of losses will force them to stop the loss in time. That is to reduce the secret funding for Death Eaters. “
“The core is that we already have a way to make up for these losses.” Hermione added to some worried Professor Dumbledore. “Our intensive plantations in the north can provide a large part of the resources. In addition, during the period around Christmas, I will stay here to build several plantations or workshops in our control area. To make up most of the gap. “
“Of course it would be good news if this is the case.” Dumbledore touched his white beard. “But as far as I know, you may need a lot of resources and wealth to support it.”
“Please be assured that I have absolutely no problem in this regard.” Ryan assured the principal Dumbledore. “
