Whether Bleach has truly lost itself remains an open question.

Even when Ryan used his 'thinking', he could only sense that it was possible, but could not be completely certain.

Because He is too strong, unreasonably strong.

He was so powerful that he didn't seem like a modern-day sorcerer at all.

With these thoughts in mind, Ryan, accompanied by a teeth-grinding squeezing sound, crossed the gates of Smith Castle controlled by the Supreme God and headed towards Ravenclaw Tower, returning to his dormitory.

It was already early morning, and everyone was still asleep, as if the squeezing sound from earlier had never happened.

Indeed, this is true; the sound is not a physical sound, and only wizards with magical perception can hear it.

Ryan yawned and looked at Harry, who was sleeping soundly on his back.

Ryan didn't understand; Harry should be able to hear, so why was he still able to sleep so soundly?

He intended to wake Harry, then pretend to be discovered, and use the Resurrection Stone as an excuse to give Harry a good talking-to.

However, this spur-of-the-moment plan was thus ruined.

So, Ryan, bored, started reading the Daily Prophet to kill time.

Well, since Sirius took control of the Daily Prophet, the newspaper has changed a lot. The gossip section has been significantly reduced, while the international section has become much more extensive.

There is a lot of news from the international wizarding community.

These messages are mostly negative, but they are not entirely fabricated.

The content from within the Britain focused on Arthur Weasley and the positive changes that occurred after Madam Bones took office, emphasizing positive energy.

It gives the impression that things are terrible abroad, while everything is great at home.

According to the Germany Der Spiegel, Grindelwald, who is currently being "imprisoned" in Nurmengard, has recently been eating a good appetite, devouring several steaks in one go. This is reportedly related to a wildly popular book in the Britain wizarding world called "The Magic of the Muggle World," which is also used as a textbook for the Defense Against the Dark Arts Britain Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The school's headmaster is none other than Dumbledore, the wizard who defeated Grindelwald —and recently, rumors have circulated about an incestuous relationship with Grindelwald. Arthur Weasley, an official Dumbledore, was able to become the head of the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic; before that, he was merely the head of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office. Tom Riddle, the Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor, has a mysterious past, and his real surname is suspected to be Grindelwald.

We have reason to suspect that Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald were actually in cahoots. They were actually working together to prevent Dumbledore had won the Civil War, from choosing a peaceful evolutionary path Cornelius Fudge discovered this and, unwilling to be a puppet, joined forces with his confidante Dolores Umbridge to rebel against Dumbledore's control. They were discovered this year and subsequently dismissed.

The content got more and more outrageous, and even Ryan, who was watching for fun, couldn't stand it anymore.

Grindelwald's good appetite led to so much content, and Fudge and his cronies seemed to have become heroes in the Germany newspapers.

This newspaper is even more outrageous than the Quibbler.

"Harry, look, what's this?" Ron pointed to the international section of the Daily Prophet, the very page Ryan was looking at.

Ron's discovery of this was not surprising. After being criticized by Draco for not taking intelligence gathering seriously, Ron had developed the habit of reading the newspaper as soon as he got up.

Moreover, the newspaper page featured a photo of a middle-aged Dumbledore in a suit waving and a similarly dashing Grindelwald bowing.

It's normal for Ron to find it.

It's already 8 o'clock, and the other people in the dormitory are gradually waking up.

Harry reached for his glasses on the bedside table, put them on, and looked over with sleepy eyes.

"According to the Germany Daily Prophet? Isn't that Sirius's business? How could this be?" Harry suddenly snapped back to reality.

"This was reported by Der Spiegel, which conducts wildly imaginative analyses every week based on Grindelwald's behavior from the previous week."

"The founder of this newspaper must have been Grindelwald's enemy. He started it in 1947 and published it in Hamburg in German and English. In 1947, two years after Grindelwald was defeated and imprisoned in Nurmengard, that guy probably thought Grindelwald would really continue like this, so he started this newspaper. What's most interesting is that this newspaper also had a branch in the Muggle World, but the content was different."

"It has a good reputation in the Muggle world, and is considered to focus on investigative reporting and dare to expose political secrets and social ills," Ron said while looking at the Daily Prophet.

That's it?

"Dare to expose the inside stories of politics and social ills?"

"Another Daily Prophet (the version before Sirius became its owner)." Harry yawned and rubbed his messy hair.

"It's so cool, okay?"

"You can think of it this way: it's like our Daily Prophet regularly publishes articles mocking Voldemort every week."

"If it weren't for the fact that it's a foreign newspaper, I would definitely read it every day!"

"Sirius did a great job!"

"We can all read foreign newspapers in the Daily Prophet!" Ron argued.

Harry got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.

After learning that the report was just a joke, Harry lost the will to argue with Ron about whether Der Spiegel was cool.

You know, I have class this morning.

It was still Charms Class, taught by their dean.

In particular, his current learning pace has long surpassed the content taught in class.

He needs to take a good shower to stay alert in class.

Moreover, the only reason that newspaper dared to report on Grindelwald in that way was because Grindelwald was far too kind compared to Voldemort.

Harry actually knew what kind of person Grindelwald was.

He was merely a sorcerer-supremacist and did not kill easily.

He only saw the progress of Muggle, and was a wizard who had lost faith in the future development of wizarding.

So Grindelwald chose to strike first.

Grindelwald was wrong. A group of America wizards also foresaw this, but they were also trapped by the rigidity and conservatism of the wizarding world.

They also foresaw the immense resistance they would face in choosing to combine Muggle technology and magic—especially given their life within the more closed-off America wizarding community.

So they chose to change themselves and secretly ran away to live on the moon.

Grindelwald is more like a politician, and he has been living in a self-constructed prison for many years.

If Der Spiegel is really that great, why did it take two years to dare to launch?

It's just taking advantage of Grindelwald's reluctance to kill indiscriminately. If Grindelwald were like Voldemort, this report wouldn't even exist.

Harry thought Ron's analogy was very far-fetched.
