Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 418 The long opening banquet is over! Let's discuss the training plan!

Dudley's words prompted everyone to reflect.

The students of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw also realized the problem and began to distance themselves from these seven ideologically unqualified individuals, no longer openly distancing themselves from them.

Even those seven ideologically deficient individuals, upon hearing Dali speak up for them in public, couldn't help but feel a little moved, even if they harbored dark schemes.

"However, this opportunity cannot be given indefinitely."

Dudley looked at the seven unqualified students and continued, "You will be delayed for five years at the latest. If your thinking still doesn't meet the requirements, you will end up like those Slytherin wizards who chose the wrong path."

The ideological assessment standards I set are genuinely not high; I don't expect everyone to be an absolutely virtuous person without any flaws.

You may resist preaching, refuse to change your thinking, or have witnessed some wicked people and things, seen evil people benefit without being punished, and thus become influenced and want to become a villain who harms others for personal gain.

But I want to tell you that this is an unavoidable dark side of human nature, and a phenomenon that cannot be completely avoided when luck and interests are intertwined. But if everyone lets their dark side run rampant and becomes that kind of person, doing things that harm others for their own benefit...

Then the human world will collapse, and no one will be able to escape it.

Believe me, you can't understand how to be a bad person.

So open your heart, attend classes diligently, and strive to understand!

Adhering to the principle of using both soft and hard approaches, Dali taught a lesson to a few bad students and everyone present at the end of the longest-ever opening banquet.

He then finished speaking and had Old Deng announce the end of the banquet, after which the students from the four colleges returned to their respective lounges.

Soon, the students, each lost in their own thoughts, got up and left, and the faculty and staff also gradually dispersed.

Only Dudley and Old Deng remained, silently activating the soundproof barrier as they slowly walked towards the eighth floor of the castle.

"Dudley, was that 'Voldemort' your doing? Several professors who witnessed Voldemort's execution didn't interrupt you, but they asked me for details via telepathy."

Are you perhaps planning to fabricate a Voldemort to separate the dark wizards of the wizarding world and train the white wizards?

On the way, Dumbledore asked in confusion.

He roughly guessed Dudley's intentions, but couldn't understand why Dudley would operate on two fronts and lay out such a grand scheme when he was dealing with a mysterious being like Death and his own life was uncertain.

"I was just going with the flow. If I hadn't come back, you would have seen this plan and decided how it would develop."

But now, I've defeated Death, and everything is back under my control.

Dudley explained briefly, then confessed to Old Deng about Eckeris and the training plan he intended to use her for.

"This...this...this is too reckless."

After hearing Ecclesiastes's ambitions and Dudley's plans, Dumbledore spoke.

He wasn't against using Eckeris to hone the magic world, but he found it hard to accept Eckeris contacting Grindelwald and the Saints.

"Dumbledore, don't let your emotions get the better of you."

Dudley cautioned, "With the White Wizards' current power and strength, what kind of trouble can Eckeris and that group of incorrigible, two-faced Death Eaters possibly cause?"

“She won’t succeed, Gellert… He promised me he wouldn’t leave Nurmengard.”

Dumbledore was still somewhat out of control.

This was the first time Dudley had ever seen someone lose their composure like this.

“I may not know Gellert Grindelwald as well as you do. But I understand human nature. To say that someone with obvious weaknesses is invincible is too absolute.”

Furthermore, you and I both know how insidious and shameless that woman Eckeris is. She even learned about your past emotional entanglement with Grindelwald from her ancestors.

Therefore, I predict that Ecclesia will use you as leverage to provoke Grindelwald into leaving the tower where he is imprisoned, and the success rate is not low.

Dudley shared his opinion and then asked Dumbledore a personal question, "Have you been corresponding with Grindelwald recently?"

Dumbledore's mood was already affected by Dudley's analysis, and hearing this question reminded him of his unhappy memories.

He secretly cast a calming spell on himself to regain his composure before answering Dudley's question:

"No, we haven't been in touch for a long time. He used to bring up topics that made me unhappy and emphasize meaningless things. I told him to think it over before replying to me."

"If that's the case, then Eckeris's success rate is even higher."

Dali added another analysis.

Dumbledore was even more displeased.

But he also understood Dudley's good intentions in wanting to hone the magic world.

After a moment's consideration, he decided to go along with Dudley's plan, and at the same time, see if Gellert would break his promise to him because of the words of a madwoman.

"Let's do it your way."

Dumbledore agreed, then asked, "What is the current situation of the two-faced Death Eaters and Ecclesia?"

"Now, the Malfoys, along with those who are willing to completely surrender to us, are in hiding for the time being."

Ecclesia will completely transform Alexios's body by tomorrow or the day after at the latest, turning him into Voldemort with the skills of a legendary wizard and the appearance of Voldemort.

Those two-faced Death Eaters who wanted to rejoin Voldemort's ranks were likely secretly orchestrated by Amicus Caro.

Dudley explained the information he had obtained by constantly monitoring Eckeris through his clone, as well as the reports the Malfoys had given up to yesterday.

At the same time, on a whim, he made a video call to the Malfoys through the Mirror Image in front of Dumbledore.

The Malfoys quickly connected and were slightly taken aback to see Dumbledore also appear in the Magic Mirror. However, under Dudley's questioning, they immediately began to report the latest situation:

"Yesterday, no, it should have started a few days ago."

Amycus secretly found the families who wanted to join Voldemort and told them that he had contacted the Dark Lord and activated the Dark Mark on those people as proof.

The Dark Mark was branded on us Death Eaters by Voldemort, and it had been slowly losing its effectiveness recently. I never expected that this dark wizard disguised as Voldemort would be able to reactivate it.

Amycus told those who wanted to return to Voldemort's side that the Malfoy family were shameful traitors, and the Black family were even more heinous, and that Voldemort would soon settle accounts with them.

Those who wish to rejoin Voldemort must sever ties with the Malfoy family, or they will be punished along with us.
