Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

It’s another time for new students to enter, put on the sorting hat, and perform the sorting ceremony.

But this year is the most deserted year in recent years.

Any faculty member who has worked for a long time can realize that there is a big problem in Hogwarts, or in other words, the wizarding world.

Because the last time there were so few new students was when Voldemort launched the Wizarding War.

The entire wizarding world is in turmoil.

Not to mention going to school, those Muggle wizards even wanted to hide to avoid being caught and beheaded by Voldemort.

In the audience, Dumbledore, who was in charge of speaking, could be seen with a normal expression.

Nothing seemed amiss.

The teachers next to them, whether it was Hagrid or Professor McGonagall, all had sullen faces.

On the contrary, Snape's expression remained normal.

His face was as straight as ever, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Apart from the teachers on the stage, Filch who was standing in the corner was also one of the people who were very worried about this situation.

The absence of a large number of young wizards from Muggle families means that he has lost many young fans.

Even if he does something to target pure-blood students, he won't gain much popularity.

There is no doubt that the current Hogwarts is not what he wants to see.

"Maybe it's time to leave." He thought of this inexplicably.

The opening party of Hogwarts started and ended with everyone's different thoughts.

Because the houses were different, Jack watched Hermione leave with the Gryffindor students.

And he went back to Hufflepuff first.

Hufflepuff, which even John had dropped out of school, was really deserted.

There were only a dozen or so people in the common room, which used to be filled with constant sounds of playing and fighting.

These people are basically from pure-blood or mixed-race families.

Get together and share your thoughts with each other.

There is no way, Hufflepuff has changed so much.

On the surface, there are almost no freshmen in the first grade, and most of the second and third grade students have dropped out.

Some fourth-graders also dropped out.

In fact, many students in fifth and sixth grade drop out of school, but the dropout rate in seventh grade is lower.

Their choice is also obvious.

After all, you will graduate after just one more year of study. No matter what, it can only be a dark road, right?

Jack saw pure-blood students like Hannah and Ernie chatting with Muggle-born wizards.

It seems that this can find the reasons why a large number of students drop out of school.

Jack left decisively before they came to ask.

If you say you want to show your cards, you will definitely show your cards, and there will be no further delay.

Before that, he found Snape.

"Is it finally over?" Snape nodded with satisfaction, "There is actually no use here. The future of the kingdom is not here, so there is no need to continue to invest energy here."

Hogwarts was once one of the centers of the wizarding world, a holy place in the hearts of wizards in the country.Here, wizards can get what they want, whether it's magic, connections, glory, power, and status.

Unfortunately, that is already a thing of the past.

"It will take another year." Jack said bluntly, "It will not be over until Voldemort is solved."

"After delaying it for so long, you still don't have the confidence to deal with him?" Snape was a little curious.He had too many things on his plate and never asked Jack about Voldemort.

"If he were alive, he would be easy to deal with. The problem is that he is in a state of remnant soul. It is very convenient to escape or hide." Jack explained briefly, "It will be easy when he is resurrected."

"Indeed." Snape nodded.

Things like ghosts and ghosts are really troublesome.

It can't be beaten to death, and it's hard to chase.

Look at Hogwarts, so many ghosts are accumulating because they are difficult to deal with.

Like Moaning Myrtle, according to normal people's thinking, she would have been dealt with long ago. How could she be allowed to cause trouble in school all the time?

"You can try research on magic in this area." Jack prompted.

It's not an order, it's just a reminder. Anyway, there are researchers to do the research on magic.

If Snape was willing to use his ingenuity and take the initiative to try to develop new spells, that would be fine.

Either way.

"Let's talk about it when we have time." Snape waved his hand.

He is so busy, he has no time to do anything.

Don't take the Minister of Education lightly, he's very busy, okay?

In fact, no matter what official position you hold, you are destined to be very busy. The more you work hard and do your best, the busier you will be.

This is true even if you are a team leader on a production line.

Only the kind of guy who just wants to kill time and doesn't take his work to heart will be so idle.

"Let's go and talk to Dumbledore." Jack smiled.

"Yeah." Snape nodded slightly.

The two then walked to the principal's office.

With Snape around, it was easy to get into the Headmaster's office.

"Severus." Dumbledore looked confused when he saw Snape, "Is something wrong?"

His eyes turned to Jack.

"You are this?"

"Headmaster, we are here to talk to you about Voldemort and the future of Hogwarts." Jack nodded solemnly and saluted.

"The future of Hogwarts..." Dumbledore said thoughtfully, "It's you? It's really beyond my expectation."

He spoke in a daze.

"Oh? The principal knows something about me?" Jack smiled, "Then I think our chat will be more enjoyable."

"Only a little bit..." Dumbledore shook his head, "I thought... forget it, there's no point in talking about that."

He didn't want to talk about his previous thoughts anymore.

It's just that they think there's something wrong with Lockhart, that Lockhart is the mastermind behind it and is stirring up trouble.

Mentioning this now will only make you appear ignorant and incompetent.

There is no need to say anything more.

"Jack, is that your real name?" Dumbledore focused his attention on Jack, "Are you really you?"

"Principal, why do you have such strange ideas?" Jack smiled, "Allow me to reintroduce myself, I, Jack Dawson, the leader of the United Kingdom."

"The United Kingdom..." Dumbledore nodded slightly, "It seems that the man named Tom is the puppet you pushed up. Why..."

His eyes focused on Jack.

"Is it because...of age?"

"You can think so." Jack did not deny it.

Of course, part of the reason for pushing Tom Wallace to the forefront is that he is relatively small and has difficulty convincing the public.

But that's just a very, very small, insignificant part.

He didn't have to explain it clearly.

"So, the kingdom is in your hands..." Dumbledore thought for a while, "You came to me with the intention of taking the wizarding world into your hands?"

The first thing that came to his mind was this possibility.
