Responsibilities to the Wizarding World
As Prime Minister Winston watched Kama closing in, he unconsciously took a step back and leaned against the back of his office chair.
"What do you want me to do?" he asked, forcing himself to remain calm.
"As far as I know, the armies of your Muggle regime's enemies, those Germany armies, are currently fighting the Russia on the eastern front, right?" Kama asked, following the script he had agreed upon with Xiwen.
"That's true, but what does that have to do with us?" Prime Minister Winston asked, somewhat puzzled. "If those Russians can hold off the Germany offensive a little longer and take on more of their troops, the pressure on our side will be reduced considerably. Isn't that a good thing?"
"That's certainly a good thing," Kama nodded, saying to Prime Minister Winston. "The Eastern Front isn't just relieving your pressure. According to a Prophecy master in our Wizarding World, the Germany army will suffer a crushing defeat on the Russia side!"
"Are you serious?!" Prime Minister Winston asked with great surprise upon hearing Kama's words. "I mean, will the predictions made by your Seer always come true?"
"I must tell you that this Prophecy is absolutely accurate," Kama said.
Although he didn't know where Xiwen had found a Seer, or why he could so confidently say that the Germany army would be defeated in Russia, fortunately, Kama was a believer in Prophecy, so he didn't doubt whether Xiwen's Prophecy was false.
After being forced by his father to make Unbreakable Vow, Kama, in his long search for revenge against Corvus Lestrange V, deeply believed in Tyco Dodonus's Prophecy, to the point that he mistakenly took Credence, now Aurelius, as his target for revenge.
Even after many years, his belief in the Prophecy remained unchanged. Thus, when Xiwen used the history of another life as Prophecy to fool the Muggle Prime Minister, Kama believed it to be true and even confidently told Prime Minister Winston about it.
Upon hearing Kama's affirmative reply, Prime Minister Winston exclaimed with great excitement, "If Russia can wipe out Germany's troops on the Eastern Front, even just half of them, it will be a heavy blow to Germany!"
"I don't understand the situation and circumstances on the Muggle side. Just tell me, if we really win this battle, would it be considered a pivotal victory?" Kama looked at Prime Minister Winston and asked seriously.
Prime Minister Winston nodded emphatically and replied, "It was indeed a great victory."
"Then could you perhaps increase the propaganda efforts surrounding this battle?" Kama continued. "This would let the people know that the Germany is not invincible, that the future looks bright, and thus boost morale and weaken the power of Death."
Upon hearing Kama's latest question, Prime Minister Winston's previously excited expression suddenly turned serious.
"Is this all you've come for today?" he asked, frowning and serious.
"What's wrong, my friend? Is there a problem?" Minister Spencer- Morn asked, looking at the serious-looking Prime Minister Winston with some surprise.
He couldn't understand why the Muggle Prime Minister, who had been so excited, had suddenly become so solemn.
"I'm sorry, my friend. But I simply cannot agree to this," Prime Minister Winston said, shaking his head at Minister Spencer- Morn.
"But you have to give us a reason, Winston." Minister Spencer- Morn's expression also turned serious as he looked at him and asked.
"You may not understand, but it's not that I don't want to publicize this war; it's an ideological issue!" Prime Minister Winston rubbed his shiny brow and said helplessly. "We can't publicize the achievements of a country with a different ideology, much less let the public know about their contributions to this war!"
"It's only because you come from the Wizarding World that you won't reveal these things; otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to tell you the reason for my refusal."
Seeing this, Kama's eyes revealed a hint of indifference. He turned sideways, walked around the front of the desk, and stood beside Prime Minister Winston.
He then leaned down, gripping the armrest of the Prime Minister's office chair, and stared intently into Prime Minister Winston's eyes.
"Mr. Winston, the pressure is now on you," he said, emphasizing each word. "Would you rather be a sinner who makes all of humanity a slave to Dimensional Demon God, or a hero who merely sells out a few political gains?"
Prime Minister Winston's words caught in his throat.
"You guys go first, I need to think about it carefully..."
The turmoil extends far beyond the Muggle World.
In this turbulent era, momentous events are unfolding everywhere in the world. Even in the ivory Hogwarts Castle, the turmoil of the outside world has unsettled people, making it difficult to maintain the joyful and carefree atmosphere of the past.
At Hogwarts, most of the seventh-year students who have reached adulthood are assigned to internships at the International Confederation of Wizards or the Ministry of Magic, accompanying numerous wizarding squads to the front lines of frequent battles, either to thwart the actions of the Pure-blood Party or to deal with Death's surprise attack on wizarding tribes.
In short, escapism and hiding are no longer allowed to continue; basically, every adult wizard must do their part for the world.
Originally, young wizards from Pure-blood families might have refused this dangerous internship under the influence of the Board of Governors. However, as the Pure-blood New Faction continued to expand, the power of the stubborn Pure-blood families on the Board of Governors lost its dominant position, and the headmaster and the four deans gained unprecedented influence.
Meanwhile, the newly appointed Minister for Magic, Spencer Morn, is a pragmatic leader willing to utilize all available resources to alleviate the pressures facing the world. Thus, at his behest, and with the approval of Gershilda Marchbanks, head of the Wizard Examinations Authority, a new educational bill for the Wizarding World was enacted.
For Hogwarts graduating students to obtain their N.E.W.T., participating in and completing a wizarding team internship before graduation is a prerequisite.
Under such regulations, most of the seventh-year students at Hogwarts, no matter how unwilling, had no choice but to grit their teeth and join the effort to save the Wizarding World.
According to the Ministry of Magic and the headmaster, this is the responsibility that adult wizards should fulfill for the Wizarding World!
