"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Cedric exclaimed excitedly, as did Amos Diggory and others who knew the minister's history.
Edridge Diggory was a popular minister who first established the Auror recruitment program.
At some point in his career, Diggory made an assessment of Azkaban.
This visit proved to be very shocking for him, as he had never known before that the conditions inside prisons were so appalling: people died of despair, and most of the survivors had gone insane.
Upon returning to London, Diggory formed a committee to seek alternatives to Azkaban, at least to remove the Dementor who served as its guards.
Experts believe that if the Dementor cannot obtain the souls of the prisoners as food, they will likely abandon the prison and live on land.
However, Diggory was horrified by what he saw and he was still looking for an alternative.
In 1747, Diggory died in his office from Dragon Pox.
Therefore, the committee never made another decision regarding replacing Azkaban.
This is the history on the surface; in reality, dying from Dragon Pox is a symbol of assassination by the conservative forces led by Rowle in the Ministry of Magic.
Abraxas Malfoy, who once manipulated the Minister for Magic and assassinated the first Muggle-born Minister, also died because of this.
The conservative upper class, led by Rowle, believed that Abraxas Malfoy had offended their rights.
Overall, Edridge Diggory is undoubtedly a heroic figure, and should be considered so even in this world.
"Why are you so agitated?" Draco muttered under his breath, but didn't seem to care. "In the early stages, he was indeed a very good Minister for Magic."
"But in this world, how can the weak rule over the strong? The Magic Fairy Castle, where the strong gather, is the center of the Tree Realm."
(The members of the British Ministry of Magic, who had been defeated by Dumbledore alone, nodded repeatedly.)
"After he established the Auror system, Steven Flitwick, the Charms professor at the time, believed that it hindered his research."
(Filius Flitwick looked bewildered. "My ancestor was that powerful? I remember he wasn't the most powerful wizard back then, at least not in our world. Could it be that he was particularly well-suited to the Blue Magic Fairy system?")
"And so, overnight, the Ministry of Magic was disbanded and merged into the Magic Fairy Castle."
"Professor Flitwick's ancestor? That Edridge Diggory," Cedric asked.
"Yes, that's right. As for Diggory becoming the last Minister for Magic," Draco shrugged, "That's not a big deal, but he was a very responsible person. He took the dissolution of the Ministry of Magic as his own fault."
"So he began to treat his offspring harshly, becoming increasingly strict as they did not live up to his expectations."
"Didn't they ever think of resisting? I mean, the descendants of Edridge Diggory." Cedric suddenly felt a pang of pity for himself in this strange world.
"Edridge Diggory still wields considerable power in the Mountain Sea Realm, and he has joined forces with the fairies, led by Damocles Rowle, who want to rebuild the Ministry of Magic."
Hearing this, Cedric felt it was ironic that his ancestors from another world had joined forces with the forces of Rowle that had originally killed him on the timeline of fate.
"Until now, Edridge Diggory has almost given up on his descendants."
"Now that the secrets of the fairies have been revealed, they won't even cancel the secret contract that could be easily broken through a simple procedure for their descendants. This makes Cedric a 'fool' among the fairies."
"Idiot?" Cedric asked.
"They are those fairies who don't know that fairies can live forever, and who automatically rationalize any related knowledge they hear. They are 'protected' by a contract, and can only break free of it in the crucial 7th grade."
"Think about it, how could Little Magic Fairy who communicates with you in a completely nonsensical way and does a series of stupid things because of information gaps not be regarded as an idiot?"
"If there are a lot of idiots, sticking together shouldn't be a problem."
"But there are fewer than 10 idiots in the entire Magic Fairy Castle right now."
Draco concealed a more popular name for these fools— Death Eater.
Because his grandfather was once one of them.
"How do they understand the connection between themselves and their ancestors?" Cedric asked.
Draco stroked his chin. "I think they seem to have taken this as a kind of Enchanted Painting, a kind of communicative portrait that doesn't actually record the thought process of the deceased."
"If you're really interested, you can search for the textbooks marked with an asterisk. The knowledge in them is all constructed from the worldview of idiots."
"What about the Magic Fairy Castle?" Cedric pressed.
"We are preparing to take charge, but it's still in the process. You know, there are too many past Magic Fairy King in the Mountain Sea Realm."
"It takes them a very long time just to sign and review them."
"Alright, we should go to class now. Ten minutes left."
Draco pulled Cedric's arm, and Cedric processed the information in his mind. He finally understood why the "Number One Red Magic Fairy in the World," who was likely his counterpart in this world, had acted that way on the forum.
It's really hard to be isolated and treated like a fool when you have no friends.
With these thoughts in mind, Cedric staggered into the physics classroom.
Unlike the ancient Roman Colosseum in the A History of Magic, its structure is quite ordinary, almost indistinguishable from the Transfiguration Class classroom in Cedric's world.
The main reason is that there are more students and more space.
The classroom was very noisy, and a light gray tabby cat sat stiffly on the podium.
Those round glasses around his eyes made it immediately clear that he was Professor McGonagall.
"Class is about to start, why isn't Professor McGonagall here yet?" Draco complained, finding a seat at the back under Cedric's look of utter disbelief. "Even the cat is here before her."
(Many viewers found it absurd; if the Red Magic Fairy could transform into Fantastic Beasts, how could the students not connect it to Professor McGonagall? Especially since this person was Draco Malfoy, the all-knowing one who had answered so many common-sense questions.)
(However, attentive viewers, led by Dumbledore, immediately connected this to the Little Magic Fairy' ignorance of the Fantastic Beasts' talents and the fact that their textbooks were only unlocked after class. Perhaps this knowledge hadn't been unlocked before class. Some common sense related to the lessons might be as unknown to the young wizards as the Sorting Hat.)
(And this world might be even easier to transform into Fantastic Beasts than through Object-Grasping Magic Fairy methods.)
Cedric tried to cover Draco's mouth, but it was too late.
The cat leaped off the table on the podium and transformed into an old woman in a green robe and round glasses— Minerva McGonagall.
"Professor McGonagall?" Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle's faces turned deathly pale.
Cedric blinked apologetically.
"It's me," she said, walking straight up to the four of them. "Mr. Draco, I'm obviously much earlier than you think."
"Mr. Cullen, you don't seem surprised."
Cedric smiled modestly, "I looked up 'Object-Grasping Magic Fairy' on Baidu while I was eating. 'Object-Grasping Magic Fairy' is a fairy who studies the essence of matter and can freely modify and combine the properties of things."
"Professor Hagrid also said that the best among the Object-Grasping Magic Fairy can change their own form."
"Very good," Professor McGonagall nodded. "Slytherin 4 points!"
Then she returned to the podium.
"I just noticed that only five of you have discovered my identity. No, perhaps five."
Her gaze swept over Basil Granger, the two Krum, Phoebe, Daniel, and Edward.
(Hermione leans on Basil's shoulder, "Bucky from the other world is amazing too.")
"I'm disappointed; I specifically kept the texture of the glasses."
Most of the students lowered their heads.
"With this attitude, I doubt you can go very far on the path of investigating things."
"The investigation of things is a path with no shortcuts. You must personally experience the properties of each object in order to permanently Transfiguration it, modify its state, and reach the realm of creating things out of thin air and creating life."
"If you're content with a temporary Transfiguration, you can simply get out of my classroom and study on your own."
(Professor McGonagall: "I don't even qualify to enter my own classroom in this other world?")
She reached into her pocket and a dark brown, ruler-shaped Magic Immortal Artifact appeared.
With its appearance, charts appeared out of thin air on all the Little Magic Fairy's desks.
"This is the periodic table of elements for the ordinary world. It has to be said that, in terms of the microscopic aspects of matter, ordinary people are one step ahead of the magical fairies."
"However, we do not sense the physical properties of corresponding elements in sequence."
"I won't let you sense it directly today either."
"However, I do not require you to memorize the periodic table or the chemical formulas of common items."
"You only need to know this concept; rote memorization is not as effective as direct observation."
"What you need to do is learn a spell, 'Balala Energy— Gryffindor —Microscopic Eye.'"
"Remember to touch your Magic Immortal Artifact when chanting the incantation, and imagine it as part of your own body."
"Can we Dark Magic Fairy also chant this spell?" Draco raised his hand.
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips. "Of course, some general spells don't restrict the path."
"You can search for the book 'Universal Spells' after class."
"In fact, some magical techniques that modify the physical body begin with the names of Dark Magic Fairy such as the Guna La Goddess of Darkness and Slytherin."
And just like that, the sound of chanting filled the classroom.
Despite being told that they only needed to touch each other, the Little Magic Fairy unanimously brandished their strange Magic Immortal Artifact. Little Magic Fairy like Neville and Harry, whose Magic Immortal Artifact were weapons, kept a great distance from each other.
Seamus's Spark, sparking Magic Immortal Artifact also intimidated some Little Magic Fairy from the ordinary human world.
However, the most unfortunate one was Krum, who could only hold 'his own' hand and mutter to himself.
"Oh, well done!" Professor McGonagall smiled. "Look everyone, Mr. Granger has succeeded!"
However, as class was about to end, only Basil Granger successfully used his microscopic vision.
Some students were extremely upset.
Harry, a first-year student who had hoped to impress Phoebe, was dejected.
Draco was relieved. "Thank goodness, he's not a Dustman."
Hermione felt both admiration and disappointment.
In short, a large number of students have become negative in their attitudes, which is reflected in the fact that they almost no longer wield the Magic Immortal Artifact and chant spells much less frequently.
Professor McGonagall noticed these things.
So she started calling for a halt.
"Put away your Magic Immortal Artifact and stop practicing."
"You must understand that only a few people can grasp the microscopic eye as quickly as Mr. Basil Granger."
"Just like in the Care of Magical Creatures Class, only Mr. Edward Cullen successfully mastered the [True Form] of the little devil."
"Let's relax for the rest of the time—"
Upon hearing this, Ron raised an eyebrow.
"Let's have a quiz. You ask questions related to the Object-Grasping Magic Fairy, and I'll answer them."
The next second, Ron's raised eyebrows drooped instantly.
(Ron, a viewer, also commented, "As expected of Professor McGonagall, only Hermione would find this relaxing.")
"How did you become a cat?" Cedric raised his hand.
He was curious about how the magic that turned people into animals was different in this world. Was it just as complicated, requiring the intervention of Potions and taking into account the weather and seasons?
"Good question." Professor McGonagall nodded approvingly. "As we all know, the Object-Grasping Magic Fairy cannot take shortcuts like the Red Magic Fairy and change its shape."
"Furthermore, it is much more difficult to become an animal without magic than to become Fantastic Beasts."
"The difficulty levels, from lowest to highest, are: inanimate objects, Magical Plant, Fantastic Beasts, plants, and animals."
"Before the first Object-Grasping Magic Fairy investigated things turned into a fish in full view of everyone in 1574, many fairies thought it was impossible."
(Professor McGonagall is surprised; there's no Animagus in this world?)
"After all, to achieve this, one must completely deconstruct oneself and the structure of the object or life form one is to become. Ordinary plants and animals do not have magic and cannot cheat through synesthesia. The structure of animals is also much more complex than that of plants."
The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.
"Everyone, in a little while, you will have access to the books 'Elementary Exploration of Things' and 'Chemical Formulas of Common Items' in your Magic Treasure Book library."
"You can write an article combining the first chapter of 'Elementary Investigation of Things' and what I taught in this lesson."
"No word limit, send it to my email by Friday morning."
"Get out of class dismissed!"
The students walked out.
In the crowded corridor, Harry and his friends fell behind the group.
"How annoying, I can't believe a brat has his eye on me." Phoebe said with a gloomy face.
Harry awkwardly scratched the back of his head; he knew who the brat Phoebe was referring to was.
Krum shook his head. "Alright, she's just a first-year Little Magic Fairy."
"Besides, you might be able to use this. The Potter family seems to have a lot of influence in the wizarding world."
"He could help us with the entire mission."
"It's a real shame, though. Edward Cullen comes from the world of ordinary people. If he were also Little Magic Fairy from the magical world, we might be able to ask around among others."
