Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

Chapter 713 A New "Variable"

“Wait a minute, I have some questions about this plan!” At this moment, Arthur Weasley suddenly stood up, faced Tierra, and said, “I’m not agreeing with your idea. We’re discussing this plan as if Muggles are objects.”

“This doesn’t seem to match what you said at the beginning, that Muggles are equal to us.” Arthur Weasley seemed very scared, but he was looking directly at Tyella.

The wizards below the stage began to whisper among themselves, and many seemed shocked and foolish by Arthur's behavior.

And Tierra—

He looked at Arthur Weasley with delight.

Because in Tierra's eyes, Arthur Weasley was no longer Arthur Weasley, but had become a "variable".

Tyella, suppressing a slight twitch of excitement on her face, smiled and said to Arthur Weasley, "Mr. Weasley, first of all, thank you very much for your questions and suggestions regarding this plan. Our discussion just now was actually exploring how to achieve equality and harmonious coexistence between Muggles and wizards."

“We certainly can’t treat Muggles as objects, but it’s undeniable that a gap has existed between wizards and Muggles for the past few centuries. The main purpose of this plan is to bridge that gap, allowing wizards to enjoy the fruits of Muggle technological advancements while enabling Muggles to experience the wonders of wizarding magic,” Tierra said with a smile. “This is a good idea, but contact between two groups that haven’t interacted for centuries will inevitably lead to some sacrifices, and sacrifices…”

Tierra paused, then continued, "Would you rather make the sacrifices on our side, or on the Muggle side? Hmm?"

“But the Muggles are so vulnerable, they can’t even use magic. Shouldn’t we wizards protect them?” Arthur Weasley asked, puzzled.

“Oh, my Mr. Weasley, Muggles aren’t called fragile,” Tierra corrected. “A more accurate description would be that the upper limit of an individual Muggle’s strength is not as high as that of a wizard’s individual strength. Therefore, Muggles focus more on collective strength, which leads to the fact that the strength of a Muggle group is far greater than that of a wizard group.”

“I hope you understand that the interaction and clash between Muggle and wizarding societies is not a one-on-one wizard duel. It’s not like I send a wizard and they send a Muggle, we talk, and if we reach an agreement, we talk; if not, we duel. The winner continues to talk, and the loser dies,” Tierra said. “With our current unprepared and loosely organized wizarding system, contacting Muggles is like hitting a rock with an egg.”

"Therefore, we need a smarter, more inclusive way of communicating, and this plan was created to achieve this goal," Tierra continued to explain. "What we need is a way that makes both sides feel safe and trusting, a way to establish equal and loving relationships between Muggles and wizards, so that we can continue to move forward in our common exploration and development, and continue to integrate in the process."

“But there are still many uncertainties surrounding this plan,” Arthur Weasley expressed his concerns. “For example, how can we be sure that wizards won’t harm Muggles?”

"I believe there are still many wizards who harbor deep hatred for Muggles."
