Hermione still remained a little doubtful.
What Andy had said sounded plausible, because when it ca to human nature, people's desires could never be satisfied.
Once you obtain one thing, you would naturally want to obtain another.
There must have been many people like Voldemort in history.
The International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was officially signed in 1689, and since then, wizards have completely secluded themselves and never revealed their magic to Muggles again.
In the world of Muggles, wizards have since beco a legend.
However, before that, wizards lived together with Muggles.
Hermione's expression turned a little solemn.
She suddenly realised a serious problem.
Leaving aside powerful wizards like Andy, Dumbledore, and Voldemort, even wizards as powerful as Snape and Sirius could rule over a group of Muggles in the age of cold weapons.
The Fiendfyre Curse could wipe out an entire city.
An ordinary Fire-Making Spell could make a small or dium-sized militia kneel and surrender.
Such powerful wizards, even if there were only a few of them, were far more terrifying and unstoppable than Muggles ard with swords and spears.
If so, why haven't the wizards established their own kingdom?
The story of witch hunts has been told so many tis that people believe it. But when a large number of wizards get together, what can the Muggles, ard with cold weapons, do to resist?
Rely on their numbers?
It's obvious; it's impractical.
When the death count reaches a certain number, the army morale will break down, and people will flee.
"History of Magic..."
Hermione's brow furrowed slightly, and her face looked a little grave. "History of Magic is indeed a bit wacky."
"Right?"
Andy shrugged and said, "The International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was signed in 1689, but in the history of magic, it seems that wizards have kept a low profile for a long ti... It seems as if they have hardly ever lived together with Muggles for a very lengthy part of history."
"Andy, you are absolutely right!"
Hermione's eyes sparkled. "The history of magic and the history of Muggles both ntion the witch hunts... I am not trying to brag, but if there were no firearms, no matter how many Muggles joined forces, they would never be able to defeat ."
"Just imagine: in an era without the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, after I graduated from Hogwarts, I would probably have a position in the Muggle governnt."
"With the wonders of magic, perhaps I would be the chief wizard at the court, respected by the royal family."
"It's not impossible!"
"However, in the records of magical history, it seems that only rlin served as the court wizard, and he was loyal to King Arthur, who never existed in modern history."
The more Hermione thought about it, the more she felt that there were just too many gaps in the history of magic.
The history just didn't line up and make sense!
"You're right!"
Andy nodded in agreent. "Even today, there are still many wizards who want to rule over Muggles."
"Voldemort and Grindelwald are just the ones at the top. Those who follow them actually want to rule over Muggles."
"But before the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was signed, this never happened... This is the biggest suspicious point!"
"Soone has revised history!"
The so-called history books can actually be summarised in two words:
Power struggle!
Back in the feudal era, the king held the supre power in a country, and there was no doubt that everyone wanted to have such power.
Muggles wanted it, and so did wizards.
But the history of magic contains no record of such events!
"Andy, what do you think?"
Hermione asked with a frown. "If our guess is correct... why would they want to alter history? Is it because this history is unfavourable to wizards?"
"And... it's happened all over the world!"
"The wizarding communities of all countries have altered history. What exactly are they trying to hide?"
Andy spread his hands. "I'm afraid only the wizards who lived 300 years ago would know the answer to that question."
"Who could live that long..."
Before Hermione could finish her sentence, she paused and exclaid, "Nicolas Flal! He was a witness to this history, and he must know what happened before the signing of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy."
Andy thought for a mont and suddenly said, "Maybe Professor Dumbledore also knows... He and Nicolas Flal were friends, and they even studied alchemy together."
The more Andy delved into the truth of this world, the more he felt that Dumbledore was unfathomable.
It seed that no matter what the topic, Dumbledore was always in the picture.
He had searched for the Deathly Hallows.
He and Nicolas Flal had discussed alchemy and perhaps even the history of the world before the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was signed.
Furthermore, he had spent a lot of ti studying love.
Perhaps love was also intricately linked to the death dinsion.
Moreover, Andy suspected that Dumbledore could remain conscious in the death dinsion.
Dumbledore seed to know everything!
To be honest, Andy found this person a bit scary.
In that battle with Voldemort, did Dumbledore really use his full strength?
Andy deeply doubted it.
"Hermione, after class, co with to the Headmaster's Office," Andy suddenly said.
Hermione raised an eyebrow. "The next class is Transfiguration; you don't want to skip Professor McGonagall's class, do you?"
Andy: "..."
"Then after Transfiguration!" Andy said with gritted teeth.
Hermione laughed softly, "I don't think Professor Dumbledore will tell you...if they've decided to hide history, they'll never tell the truth easily."
"No!"
Andy laughed, "I'm going to issue a challenge!"
"You really want to challenge Professor Dumbledore?" Hermione exclaid.
"Of course!"
Andy said in a serious tone, "Maybe...only by defeating Professor Dumbledore can we make him open up a bit more."
Hermione hesitated for a mont, then nodded slightly, "Okay!"
"Then it's settled!"
"Then I'll read my book. We can talk after class." After saying that, Andy removed the silencing charm and continued to study alchemy.
Hermione also held her book and started reading.
Runes are the fundantal basis of alchemy.
After understanding the aning of each rune, he also had to learn to carve them and align them in a specific order.
All of this required a lot of patience and grind.
Andy felt that with level 3 [Alchemy] talent, it would be unlikely for him to master alchemy quickly.
"Hmm..."
Andy pondered for a while.
There were just too many attributes to add, and even today, Andy still felt that [Potential Points] were not enough.
What's more, Andy also wanted to push a certain attribute past seven points to see if it would trigger a new change.
[Potential Points] were in short supply!
However, Andy's magical attainnts had already reached a certain level, so it wasn't that easy to make new gains in a short period of ti.
Andy opened the system panel and set his sights on the [Constitution] attribute... This was an attribute that could enhance Andy's magical power in the short term, and it was also the key to investigating the Death Dinsion.
On this basis, based on the current situation, [Alchemy] seems far less important than [Constitution].
'Should I first increase my magical power... or focus on honing my skills?'
Andy was hesitant.
"Hmm..."
After thinking about it, Andy promptly made a decision: 'Perhaps... I can wait until after the duel with Dumbledore and consider the allocation of points again.'
