Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 174 Unbreakable Vow
"I probably understand."

Li Wei rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"So, what do you want from me to say all this?"

“I want to tell you that we have not caused any harm to the magical world. After becoming your enemy, we have deeply realized our mistakes—we have come to seek peace, Professor Levi.”

“I would like to ask you and Dumbledore to stop investigating us. In fact, you are unlikely to find anything.”

From this day forward, we, the Seven Saints, will never appear in your sight again—I can swear an unbreakable oath to you.

"You mean, after you failed to kill me and realized that it was impossible to resolve the issue with force, you expect me to pretend nothing happened and let you go?"

"We will show the sincerity you want."

Vera bowed her head respectfully.

"You don't need to scare us—as far as we know, you are a true Slytherin—Slytherins only care about interests and results, don't they?"

"If you simply nod your head, from this day forward you will not only lose a formidable opponent in the magical world, but you will also gain tremendous support—even if you aspire to become Minister for Magic, we will help you."

Li Wei really wanted to say that he wasn't.

But he did not actually reject the idea of ​​the Seven Saints.

Although he didn't want to let these people off the hook—it was indeed quite annoying when they hid away and never came out, constantly sabotaging him from behind the scenes.

Since the Obscurials were an evil that arose from within them, Levi, though disgusted by this approach, could not force them to change their ways—in fact, he believed it was due to outdated thinking, a symptom of the rampant pure-blood ideology in the magical world.

To change this situation, it is not enough to reverse the perceptions of one or two families—not to mention, these purebloods are all incredibly stubborn.

Instead of changing them, let's start with the next generation. Coincidentally, there is only one magic school in the magic world of every region.

In other words, as long as the mindset of all magic schools is improved, the magic world will surely undergo earth-shattering changes when the next generation grows up.
At that moment, Li Wei suddenly felt a sense of mission towards his position as a professor at the university.

He wouldn't shoulder the tragedy of the times, but he did begin to want to do something for the era. He recalled his conversation with Nico.

As life goes on, more and more people will leave his world, and his connection with this world will become weaker and weaker—until one day, he is all alone, alive but forgotten by the times.

But if he continuously educates students at Hogwarts, influencing the thoughts of each generation, then every generation of strong individuals who emerge from the magic school are his students.
By then, will his connection with the world have weakened or strengthened?
Li Wei began to wonder about this.

A sense of pride gradually arose in his heart.

"You seven holy descendants are hiding behind the scenes, but your purpose isn't just to maintain the superiority of pure blood, is it?"

While Vera waited, Levi slowly spoke.

He stopped on a London street, and people curiously passed by them, but he couldn't hear anything about their conversation.

"You transform your bodies into the form of magical creatures, passing them down from generation to generation, condensing your own magic power with each generation, until one day you step into the legendary realm, passing it down from generation to generation—once you succeed, you, and your descendants, will all be legendary wizards—a rather brilliant idea."

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Vera tried to remain calm, but Yuri behind her had completely changed her expression.

"Sure, feel free to give it a try."

Li Wei suddenly laughed.

"I can let you go, but in return, you must stop all your underhanded tactics."

A sudden gust of wind swept through the streets of London.

"I have no interest in, nor any intention of respecting, the broken traditions of your pure-blood families, but I will not try to change you. I will change this era, and you will ultimately be rejected by the new era."

"Let's see if your so-called Seven Saints system will be the first to reach legendary status and change the world, or if I will reach a higher level, change this era, and eliminate all your outdated ideas!"

At that moment, Li Wei developed a strong conviction.

He wanted to spread the communist ideal of equality for all across this land.

One day, wizards born into pure-blood, half-blood, and Muggle families will grow up under the same gaze.

Pure-blood wizards can no longer endlessly oppress other wizards because of their own ignorance or their first-mover advantage.

He will do it.

Moreover, he was eager to see whether pure-blood ideology would prevail or his ideas were more advanced.

Vera pursed her lips tightly—she felt that the man in front of her, who had always kept a low profile, had become even more terrifying.

"So we've reached a consensus?"

She extended her right hand to Li Wei.

“Consensus?” Li Wei shook his head. “You’re exchanging your future silence for your present survival.”

Vera's Adam's apple bobbed slightly. She glanced at her pale-faced sister, took a deep breath, and said firmly:

"I accept."

"Then, let magic be the witness, those who disobey shall bear the consequences."

Li Wei raised his right hand and clasped it tightly with Wei's outstretched hand.

The crowds on the streets of London continued to move about, but they seemed to be separated by an invisible barrier, forming a silent realm that belonged only to the three of them.

"Yuri," Vera whispered, turning her head.

Yuri shuddered and hurriedly stepped forward, drawing her wand and trembling as she pressed the tip against their tightly clasped hands.

"Li Wei, are you willing to refrain from actively pursuing or attacking the Seven Sacred Descendants and their members until a legendary wizard is born among the Seven Sacred Descendants and they voluntarily violate the agreement, and to do your utmost to restrain others from engaging in similar behavior?"

“I do,” Li Wei replied calmly.

The moment he finished speaking, a slender, dazzling tongue of fire shot from the tip of Yuri's wand and quickly wrapped around their wrists.

Yuri continued, her voice becoming slightly more stable:
"Vera Caro, are you willing to represent the Seven Saints and refrain from any active or passive interference in the magical world until a legendary wizard is born within the organization?"

"I do," Vera said clearly and firmly.

A second jet of fire shot out, intertwining with the first to form a more complex and tightly bound magical knot.

Finally, Yuri looked at Levi and asked the last question, which was also to ensure the balance of the contract:
"Li Wei, do you promise to acknowledge the validity of this contract and fulfill your promise, provided that the Seven Saints abide by the agreement?"

“I promise,” Levi said calmly, looking directly into Vera’s eyes.

A third flame shot out, perfectly merging with the first two, and disappeared beneath the skin of the two people.

Thus—the unbreakable oath is established.
