RPAGF Chapter 281 Academic Exchange
Chapter 281 Academic Exchange
Ilvermorny's internal conflict was openly exposed in front of Tangning and the others, making the following dinner party boring.
Tangning didn't know that the conflicts within the North American wizarding community were beyond his imagination.The most direct manifestation is that today, more than 30 years after the repeal of Rappaport's Law, the relationship between wizards and No-Majs in North America has not improved much.
If someone made statistics on the enrollment rate of Muggle-born wizards around the world, the final result would be that North America must be the lowest, and many areas still have anti-witch traditions.
In fact, until now, MACUSA has been debating whether to have a lasting relationship with the White House.In contrast, the British Minister of Magic has always had a relationship with the Prime Minister, and at least the UK is at the forefront in this regard - no matter which side of the two sides changes, the then Minister of Magic has to make a difference.
The person who best illustrates the relationship between British ministers and prime ministers is currently Kingsley Shacklebolt.He is not only the Chief Auror who protects Fudge, but also the Assistant to the Prime Minister...
Of course, Kingsley, who has these two identities on the surface, is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix secretly, which is another matter.
Conservatives, liberals, purists, anti-purists... That is to say, the conflict is still within a certain range and does not occur in the form of bloodshed. Otherwise, the pot of porridge here may be thicker than the wizarding war in Britain.
During the dinner, some students from Ilvermorny came to strike up a conversation. Tangning welcomed everyone who came and talked about what he could talk about, but never mentioned what he couldn't talk about. After finishing the meal intermittently, he actually talked to five or six people.
"The textbook for our Charms class is "Standard Spells", one volume for each school year. Yours is..."Chadwick's Magic"? It sounds interesting, but who is Chadwick? Oh, his full name is Chadwick. K. Butt, I remember who he is..."
Tangning was talking to a strange wizard when his hand was suddenly pulled up by Hermione.
Tangning turned around and saw a boy next to Hermione staring at him and the hand he was holding with Hermione, and he was holding a flower in his hand.
"I think you're in the wrong place!" Tangning slightly raised the hand holding Hermione's and suppressed the sudden urge in her heart to cast a Petrifying Curse on him.
His companions quickly pulled him away, but judging from his posture, he left reluctantly.
Another Krum?
Feeling the softness in her hands, Tang Ning was fearless.
After Tangning and Hermione exchanged a few sweet words, he suddenly noticed that the wizard he was chatting with just now hadn't left yet!
Tangning answered his two questions apologetically, and then asked what he was interested in: "Is there much analysis of magic in the book "Chadwick's Magic"? I don't mean spells, but simple magic." magic……"
The latter shook his head, but he gave several examples of magic spells in the book. Tang Ning discovered that one of them he had never heard of was a spell that could be used on rainy days to prevent people from getting soaked in the rain.I don’t know if it’s because he hasn’t learned it yet or because it’s not included in the “Standard Spells” at all. He really has no impression of this spell.
From this point of view, there is indeed a need for exchanges between major schools.It's a pity that the Triwizard Tournament was originally created for communication, but it has long since changed.
For example, Tang Ning was a little envious of Krum's human body transformation technique, but it was a pity that their relationship did not allow for academic exchanges.
If Tangning originally came here just to see the wand-making process, now he really took the nominal academic exchange to his heart.
According to the process agreed between Dumbledore and Boot, there will be an opportunity for formal academic exchanges.
The next morning, Fontana, the student president of Ilvermorny, came to visit them again. He took Tangning and Hermione to see a lot of the scenery of Mount Greylock, where the school is located.
But on the way, the three of them invariably turned the topic into academic exchanges. Fontana was a seventh-grade student. He planned to participate in Auror training after graduation. Auror was about to become his family profession.
"But I don't plan to work as an Auror for the rest of my life. If possible, I hope to go back to school to teach when I reach a certain age..." Fontana said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, Hermione and I's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is a senior Auror. He also hopes that I will become an Auror after graduation!"
Tangning continued: "Have you ever heard of the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts? A professor can only serve one term..."
Fontana shook his head: "Is it possible that your school recruits new professors every year?"
"I have always felt that this is Mr. Dumbledore's biggest worry every summer, and the first thing we do when we arrive at Hogwarts after school starts is to see if there are any new faces in the teacher's seat in the auditorium."
In addition to academic exchanges, there will also be some small talk and introduction to the scenery on the mountain.
"Look, this is the snake tree. The wand used by Principal Thayer was unfortunately sealed in Parseltongue by her aunt. Later, Principal Thayer buried it here and gradually grew into such a big tree. ! Its leaves have strong healing effects... Legend has it that even if the tree is cut down, it will grow back within a few years. Principal Thayer once cut it down... but no one dares to try this now."
"I read Ms. Thayer's biography last night and read this paragraph." Hermione likes Isolt Thayer very much, or in other words, she has always liked independent and self-reliant women. This should be because people are divided into groups. .
……
For several major schools to be famous all over the world, they must have specialties. He also gained a lot from the exchange with Fontana.At the same time, he also felt that Hermione beside him was also very satisfied.
"Are you ready for the afternoon?" Fontana suddenly asked when he returned to the castle before noon and said goodbye.
Two days of contact made them familiar with each other, and their words became less polite.
"It's okay with me, don't be scared when the time comes!" Tangning said with a smile.
"I have been preparing for a long time, don't underestimate me!"
After saying goodbye and returning to the guest room, Hermione asked her doubts.
Only then did Tangning realize that when she was alone with Hermione, she was only busy flirting and not talking about serious business.He roughly told Hermione the itinerary for the past few days, and then he mentioned the highlight of the afternoon.
"The making of the wand is an absolute secret. You can't visit it just by opening your mouth. I have to prove in front of the students of Ilvermorny that I am a worthy warrior... Think back to the events of the Triwizard Tournament. , which one can most intuitively prove the strength of the Warriors?"
"Fire dragon?" Hermione exclaimed.
"To be precise, it's the Australian Opaleye. This dragon's favorite food is sheep. In the afternoon, I will compete with a few students from Ilvermorny to see who can seize food from the dragon's mouth better. Now it seems , Fontana is one of them, it’s not surprising when you think about it.”
