Britain's Version of "Coffin Theory"

This wave of dropping out of school came faster than expected.

After the beautiful twin sisters left, the third to drop out was Hannah Abbott.

The Abbott family is a renowned wizarding family that owns mines.

The most famous Hannah I, came from Milan. Like the Goblin, she was extremely skilled at forging weapons.

Therefore, he has many world-renowned blacksmithing titles such as "Iron Hannah" and "Little Blacksmith of Milan".

Many weapons and armor, those protective alchemical artifacts, are made from metals supplied by this family.

William's anti-curse helmets also feature their family's metalwork.

The Death Eaters came to Hannah's house with the aim of absorbing the family and persuading them to become servants of the Dark Lord.

At the very least... we can no longer supply weapons to the Ministry of Magic.

But why should someone's family, which has existed for so many years and can earn money with dignity, kneel down and act like a dog to others?

Hannah's father refused outright, and then that night... Dark Mark appeared on their house.

Hannah Abbott was called out of Herbology and told that her mother had been murdered.

No one ever saw Hannah again.

Death is something that cannot be avoided, because it is the norm in wizard wars.

The Ministry of Magic could use its power to invite Pure-blood families like the Flint family to the Ministry for tea.

The Death Eaters are also able to launch a powerful attack on wizarding families that have sided with the Ministry of Magic and the Order of the Phoenix.

Auror and the Order of the Phoenix can protect important figures, but they cannot stop Death Eaters from attacking other wizards at will.

After all, someone can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.

Death Eaters are deliberately creating a climate of terror using the most brutal methods.

The Dark Lord attempted to intimidate all the families in this way:

Don't take sides too easily, or the Hannah family will suffer the worst possible fate.

But he overlooked one problem:

Once the state's violent institutions are under control, this method of precise strikes is indeed very effective.

However, the Ministry of Magic is still under the control of the Order of the Phoenix.

In other words, the tide still turned in the hands of Dumbledore and William; the Death Eaters were ultimately a weak force.

As a challenger, this tactic resembles impotent rage.

Or rather, a retaliatory terrorist attack.

This will only drive the Pure-blood families who originally supported the Dark Lord to the opposite side.

This made all the wizards who were not from Pure-blood families even more resistant to him.

Who would dare to serve under such a "boss" who is prone to killing?

All I can say is that Voldemort... was too petty, too narrow-minded!

His actions after being resurrected were far inferior to those of Grindelwald, who was several times worse than Fudge and Umbridge!

After Hannah, more and more students dropped out of school.

The young wizards talk about who's transferring schools and who's moving every day.

Or perhaps someone has a relative somewhere and you need to go and stay with them.

Fortunately, most students and parents believe that:

Hogwarts is much safer; otherwise, the school might have to close temporarily.

The reason is quite simple:

Dumbledore and Stark are here to oversee things.

Wherever the two of them are, that's definitely the safest place in the world.

However, the principal is often away from school, William needs to stay here and show up from time to time to reassure everyone.

But students, when they feel safe, like to pontificate.

The young wizards spontaneously formed a political commentary circle, spending their days discussing politics and offering their opinions, much like tactical masters.

They even went so far as to critique the results of war operations published in the newspapers, acting like micromanagement masters comparable to heads of state and principals.

Some wizards even proposed "European Studies" amidst the increasingly complex situation.

This wizard likened the Death Eaters to the "Grindelwald's Acolytes" of the early 20th century, Voldemort to the first Dark Lord, Grindelwald.

The Great War, which is now rife with conflict, is the Europe that was once a fragmented mess.

The "Europe" in "joining Europe" refers to the "Greater European Magical Union".

He believes the current situation is very similar to that of Grindelwald's first escape from New York, before the attacks on Paris, France...

At that time, New York was also completely destroyed.

Grindelwald's power grew stronger day by day, and Dumbledore, for some reason, was no longer able to contend with him.

That time and that moment, just like this moment.

What we need to do now is learn from Muggle and form a more active European Magical Union.

Then, we wait for the second "Dumbledore" to appear, just like in "1945," to fight Voldemort and turn the tide.

This theory is very similar to the "coffin-laying theory," since it basically involves "laying someone in a coffin" and that's it.

After Voldemort is dealt with, this Europe alliance will definitely be led by our great leader.

If that doesn't work, then Brexit.

He comes and goes, causing chaos... He doesn't take a stand, doesn't take responsibility, and fully displays his scumbag nature.

This kind of troublemaking rhetoric immediately gained the approval of more wizards.

They even designated William as the second "Dumbledore".

Against this backdrop, Professor McGonagall convened a meeting of all professors.

She believed that these students, who were "too full" and had nowhere to vent their frustrations, should have their attention diverted.

The best way to divert attention, of course, is with lots of... homework.

As a result, the young wizards discovered that their time for planning and envisioning the future had been drastically reduced.

With the workload piling up, there's no time to even rest.

Some people didn't want to do it, but when they met Professor McGonagall's gaze, they immediately chose to follow their hearts.

This isn't how they criticize the Ministry of Magic for inaction; it's a clear case of "knowing and doing in harmony."

It's even tougher for seventh graders.

They are facing a critical juncture in their lives, as they are about to graduate.

In times of war, the employment situation is dire.

Putting aside work, they felt even more academic pressure after entering the advanced class.

In the past, I could always get top grades by working hard after class or by doing lots of practice problems.

But now... if you don't understand, you don't understand at all, and even repeated review after class may not be helpful.

Even Qiu had to ask William to repeat what he taught three or four times after class before she could understand it.

With Cedric absent, William had to take on the tutoring duties.

What annoyed Qiu the most was that Harry would come to her every day to tutor her in Apparition, even though she herself had a lot of things she didn't know.

I'll teach you a damn thing!

On Saturday, the school held Quidditch tryouts.

This finally eased the uneasy and restless atmosphere considerably.

The Ravenclaw House selection process proceeded smoothly without any problems.

William even went so far as to leave everything to Qiu, letting her take charge of the entire process.

Ravenclaw's roster has been well-maintained, consisting almost entirely of William's classmates.

It's easy to imagine that once they graduate, Ravenclaw will revert to its original state.

As for how many years this period of stagnation will last, it depends on when the next the Chosen One, "Stark," will arrive.

Therefore, this selection is mainly for the main players next year.

Seeing that Ravenclaw's momentum was unstoppable, Slytherin simply gave up.

In Professor Snape's words, "Now is not the best opportunity to win the championship."

He's said this seven times already. I wonder if he'll get the opportunity he wants when he retires.

It's really not Professor Snape's fault.

This wave of dropping out of school saw the largest number of students leaving Slytherin.

Many of the young wizards, especially those from Death Eaters families, have left.

The college already had a small student body, and with a large number of students dropping out, the dining tables were often not even full, making it seem very deserted.

As for Hufflepuff, they're going to tank this semester too.

With captain Cedric graduating, the Quidditch team will face a period of growing pains.

However, Hufflepuff is a regular in the finals, and there are plenty of strong young men in the academy who don't have boyfriends and have no outlet for their energy.

Gryffindor suffered the most, losing three of their key players at once.

Besides the perfectly coordinated Beater George and Fred, there's also captain Angelina.

Gryffindor hasn't won the Quidditch Cup in a full ten years.

For Professor McGonagall, it can be summed up in one sentence:

I think about it during the day, cry at night, and dream of winning the championship.
