Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity.

Chapter 91 Controversy
Virtual reality, which is related to the magic of thought, should not be promoted in the Muggle world.

Even if it is implemented in the wizarding world, it will probably face great resistance.

It goes without saying that the Ministry of Magic will intervene.

As long as Roger does not completely overturn the table, smash the old order and establish a new order, he has to act according to the existing rules.

And now the political relationship between Minister of Magic Fudge and Dumbledore has not yet been resolved. The second realistic thing is that if Dumbledore can agree, Roger will invisibly save a lot of trouble.

In order to convince Dumbledore, Roger listed the fact that the second reality had many benefits for both the wizarding community and the Muggle community.

Roger also told Dumbledore about his future plans in order to dispel Dumbledore's doubts.

Seeing Roger's frankness, Dumbledore finally nodded and agreed to let Roger conduct a small-scale pilot operation to see the results.

In a few days, Roger will complete the debugging of the alchemical device and come to see Dumbledore. At that time, the two will go to the Ministry of Magic together to make relevant reports.

"Principal, I heard that there has been a lot of public opinion out there recently. Is there anything I can help you with?" After talking about his own affairs, Roger turned the topic to Dumbledore.

After Grindelwald escaped from prison, there were some negative comments surrounding Dumbledore, and after the Department of Mysteries was looted, public opinion exploded.

Although Dumbledore, with his current strength, no longer needs to worry about "people's gossip", as the headmaster of Hogwarts and the chairman of the International Confederation of Wizards, being involved in the storm for a long time will be a blow to his identity.

Dumbledore is the headmaster of Hogwarts, but strictly speaking, the board of directors is the real owner of the school, and the headmaster is more like a "CEO".

The same goes for the President of the International Confederation of Wizards; that person is elected.

Unless Dumbledore shuts up and starts talking with his wand, then...

In response to Roger's question, Dumbledore shook his head and said, "I can handle international issues. As for domestic issues, if you don't do anything, you will be helping me."

"Oh?" Roger exclaimed in surprise.

"How to say?"

Roger didn't pay much attention to how far the current public opinion trend had progressed. The information he knew was all learned from his classmates' casual chats during meals.

The students at Hogwarts are all boarders, and there is a layer of separation between them and the outside world, so it is obviously impossible for them to know the latest developments.

"Speaking of which, this matter is related to you."

Dumbledore briefly explained the cause and effect.

Britain lives under the protection of Dumbledore, so public opinion is naturally different from that of other European countries.

And due to some factors, their focus is different from that of other European countries.

In the eyes of countries like Germany and Austria, Grindelwald had just escaped from prison and committed a serious crime of attacking an important department of a country's Ministry of Magic and stealing forbidden magic information. This was a sign of him planning to do something big!
Many people who experienced Grindelwald's reign of terror are still alive, so the European wizards who are in constant fear asked Dumbledore to find a way to get rid of Grindelwald.

Under fear, they used public pressure, moral kidnapping, diplomatic coercion and other means to force Dumbledore to take action.

Go by yourself? How can I do such a dangerous thing by myself?
Of course, we have to leave it to the experts!
But British wizards see things from a completely different perspective.

With Dumbledore around, there might be some sporadic incidents, but there would definitely not be a massacre-level disaster.

After Grindelwald looted the data and the time-turner, he ran away directly and did not dare to stay for long. This was the evidence that he was not sure of defeating Dumbledore... at least that's what the people thought.

So what they care more about is why Grindelwald stole these things?
Before the Grindelwald incident, the hottest topic in the British wizarding world was the Prophet and the Savior's research on time magic. In order to prohibit anyone from researching such dangerous magic, the Ministry of Magic set up hundreds of laws to restrict it.

People are discussing whether some restrictions should be lifted in order to make these two future hopes of the British wizarding world stronger. On both sides of the discussion, one side believes that dangerous magic should be restricted. What if this dangerous magic falls into the hands of dark wizards?
The other side's point of view is that the officials should not be allowed to set fires but the people should not be allowed to light lamps. Why is it that only your Department of Mysteries can conduct research? How can you guarantee that the people in the Department of Mysteries are so trustworthy?

The two sides who were originally arguing had already discussed the topic to the point that, 'At worst, the Prophet and the Savior could take up positions in the Department of Mysteries to bypass some restrictions.' Both sides had made a concession.

At this critical juncture, the Time Hall of the Department of Mysteries, which is responsible for studying time magic, was robbed.

This made many people unable to hold back.

This is what you call safety? This is what you call keeping dangerous magic out of the hands of dark wizards?

So your laws only apply to ordinary wizards like us, and you can rob the truly powerful dark wizards whenever you want?

So, amid concerns about what Grindelwald would do with time magic, new disturbances began to surge.

Now the British wizards have temporarily stopped paying attention to Dumbledore.

They started discussing something else.

"Who exactly is this Ministry of Magic's law targeting?"

If it were just a simple discussion, it wouldn't be a big deal, but the key is that many of the laws of the Ministry of Magic are really a mess, with many weird regulations that are difficult to understand.

and so……

"The Ministry of Magic is just going to let public opinion ferment?" Roger asked puzzledly.

Dumbledore chuckled: "Not only did they let it go, they even fueled the flames."

Roger thought about it for a moment and then made a guess: "Are there senior officials who want to use public opinion to force the Ministry of Magic to carry out judicial reforms?"

"...Some rules need to be changed." Dumbledore's eyes became deep and sad.

Dumbledore thought of his sister, his father.

There are also many things that happened during the years I taught at Hogwarts.

He understood the complex relationship between Muggles and wizards and understood the fears of some people, but this should not be an excuse for "lazy politics".

There should be more appropriate ways to handle many things.

This is not only Dumbledore's idea, but also the common idea of many other wizards.

Dumbledore had not started what was going on, but he was willing to help.

After understanding the current situation, Roger curled his lips. He was not interested in these rules and regulations.

"Okay, just keep your affairs in mind. If you need anything, call me anytime."

"...Actually, I do have something to do." At this point, Dumbledore suddenly remembered something.

"what's up?"

"What do you think of the Muggle Studies courses at Hogwarts?" Dumbledore asked very seriously.
