Chapter 129 127. Bloodline Contradictions
"I know you, a Muggle student who just graduated from Beauxbatons and was even exempted from the assessment because of your excellent grades and was directly called into the Ministry of Magic. You have been very popular recently."
At the table next to Dumbledore and Jon, the guests at the two tables who were eating independently had a conflict for some unknown reason, and their voices gradually became louder. At this moment, most people in the tavern were paying attention. .
The person who said this was a well-dressed wizard in a dark purple robe, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, what seemed to be flattering was actually sarcasm.
The object of his sarcasm was a young wizard opposite. The wizard's face flushed and he snorted coldly.
"Hasn't the selection rules of the Ministry of Magic always been like this? Admission is based on merit. Since they have decided that I have shown enough ability, they will of course hire me first. Why are you embarrassing? Because I have taken up your quota?"
His words seemed to have hit the pain of the purple-robed wizard, and his face obviously became extremely ugly.
"Sure enough, you are a stunned young man who just graduated from school. What do you think is going to be fine if you enter the Ministry of Magic with your background? Isn't it just a job as a handyman for the rest of your life!"
"Even if you're doing odd jobs, it's better than some people with prominent backgrounds who don't even have the qualifications to get in?"
The young wizard obviously grasped his pain point, even if he wanted to forcefully expose his scars, the purple robe wizard's concentration was not very high, so he pulled out his wand in a rage.
"You bastard! This is France! If the Ministry of Magic introduces the British system, then you stupid thing who is not even qualified to hold a wand is not even worthy of shining my shoes!"
His words also deeply trampled on the self-esteem of the young wizard, and he drew out his wand angrily, and confronted the purple-robed wizard!
The two of their companions also raised their wands and stood up fiercely, and the atmosphere became tense for a while.
The tavern fell completely silent, as if these two people were involved in some sensitive topic, everyone closed their mouths, and no one made a sound.
Only the waiter of the tavern and the owner of the bar ran over nervously, half forcing and half comforting them, persuaded them to leave the tavern, even the meal fee was waived.
After they left, the tavern gradually returned to being noisy, but the atmosphere was obviously different from before. Jon heard many wizards discussing bloodline-related topics in a low voice.
Dumbledore's face became a little dignified. There were too many people here. He didn't talk to Jon much. Instead, after finishing dinner, he asked for a double room on the second floor of the tavern.
Night is certainly not a suitable time to visit, they need to stay here for one night.
When he came to the guest room, Dumbledore shook his head and said.
"This is not a good phenomenon."
"When we were eating just now, the conflict between those two people?" Jon asked.
Jon thought about it.
"They brought the Dark Lord's institutional policy here, so that French pure-blood and half-blood wizards saw the benefits? This also deepened the blood conflict here?"
"Not only that." Dumbledore added, "The British Muggle wizards who fled here will definitely occupy some of the resources and interests of the original French wizards, which will intensify the blood conflicts. What's more, the original thinking of the French wizarding world More conservative, more resistant to Muggle-related encounters."
"As for the Muggle wizards, because the Muggles in France are more obsessed with equality, this also makes these Muggle wizards very disgusted with the current situation in Britain. We have received a lot of assistance from them. This has also made the confrontation between bloodlines more and more acute, and there have been more and more conflicts related to bloodlines in the French magic circle in the past two years."
Voldemort's influence is spreading from England to the outside world, and the first to bear the brunt is the nearest France.
Some people have always said that Voldemort's structure is inferior to the original Dark Lord Grindelwald. After all, Grindelwald has set his sights on the future of the world's magic world from the very beginning, and his own influence also covers the entire Europe and most of the world. In America, nearly half of the magic governments.
Jon actually looked at this problem dialectically in his previous life.
The so-called pattern is just that they chose different directions to obtain rights at the beginning.
Grindelwald's place of learning magic is located in the northernmost part of Europe, established at the Durmstrang School of Magic in the northern part of the Navia Peninsula.
Even if he was expelled later, the wizards he first came into contact with and the forces he gathered were basically from the Nordic magic circle.
Magical governments are different from Muggle countries, in terms of influence and norms, they are far incomparable, and the population base of wizards themselves is much smaller than that of Muggles, so although the magical government in Northern Europe also relies on the power of Muggle countries Established, but compared with those powerful magic governments, the gap is huge.
After being expelled from school, he has been to many places, including meeting Dumbledore in England, going to Germany to steal Gregorovich’s old wand, returning to Northern Europe to organize the Witch Party (the saint’s official name) and so on.
After traveling around Europe, Grindelwald established his foundation in a country that deviated from several powerful magical regimes—with the Nurmengard Prison in Austria as the center, he started a guerrilla war against various magical governments in Europe , and even once brought the flames of war to North America.
Plus his followers come from all over the world, many of them are dark wizards who are notorious in their respective magic circles. And his ultimate ideals and political goals have completely damaged the interests of the vast majority of wizards-wizards just want to be content with the status quo, and don't want to destroy the "Secrecy Act" and start a war with Muggles.
So Grindelwald's influence has also affected the whole world. After all, the magic governments all over the world are aware of his threat to the "Secrecy Act".
Looking at Voldemort again, he studied at Hogwarts when he was young, and he had already won over a large group of like-minded "friends" with his own means and personality charm during school, and then stayed in the UK for a few years after graduation, and then Also travel around the world.
During this period, he also relied on his own theory to win over a large group of "allies", and then returned to the UK.
It's just from here that there is a difference in the way Voldemort and Grindelwald acquire rights.
Grindelwald wants to occupy a small magical regime, and then use it to strengthen himself, and then slowly erode the powerful magical regime to unify the entire global magical world, and finally complete his ultimate goal.
And Voldemort directly chose to start with the most difficult bone in the British wizarding world. At that time, he split his soul at least 5 times, and he had become a little arrogant in his thinking.
