Connor's Hogwarts

"Professor, can I ask you some questions?"

After the History of Magic class the next day, Connor retained Professor Binns who wanted to leave through the blackboard.

Professor Binns paused, turned around his gray translucent body, looked at Connor with his dull eyes, and said in a dry tone: "Oh, Connor, what's the matter?"

"Professor, I would like to ask you some questions about the church. I don't know if it's convenient." Connor explained the purpose of his visit. There was too little information found in the book, so he chose to ask people who had experienced it directly.

Professor Binns has been the professor of the history of magic since the founding of Hogwarts. He is a moving history book.

"Of course. Although this is content that is only taught in senior grades, what question do you want to ask?" Professor Binns did not refuse Connor's question and still answered in his cold and breathless voice.

"That's right. I want to know what caused the two schisms in the Roman Church?"

Professor Binns was silent for a long time before he said: "This question is beyond the scope of my ability to answer. I am only a recorder of history. I know exactly which year, month and day the church split, but I don't know. The real reason behind it..."

"In other words, everyone who has seen this period of history will come up with a different answer. What is the truth? How can those who have not experienced it know..."

Professor Binns shook his head and said: "I can only tell you that it is generally believed that the first split of the Holy See was due to its internal conflicts, and the second split was due to the conflicts between wizards and Muggles..."

"If you must look for the truth, then I recommend you go to the library and look up "The Biography of Gryffindor", "The Age of Witch Hunting" and "The Signing of the International Statute of Secrecy"... although they are all one-sided. , but I think this will help you."

After Professor Binns finished speaking, he ran away across the blackboard without waiting for Connor to ask any more questions. Connor didn't even have time to say thank you.

Although Professor Binns spoke dryly, his speech was very clear, and there was no sense of confusion like that in class.

Obviously, Professor Binns didn't want to answer Connor's question head-on, but since he gave the clue, Connor also had a direction. Connor said goodbye to Roger and walked towards the library.

…

"The Biography of Gryffindor" looks like a knight's novel. The book talks about Gryffindor's glorious achievements in his life, such as forging swords and slaying dragons. It is just a poor-quality novel.

After reading Connor, he didn't get any useful information, but the book spent a lot of time describing Gryffindor's fight against the powerful evil church.

But... Connor really can't see what this has to do with the church split.

The church was not broken by Gryffindor. The East and West churches split in 1054, and Gryffindor had died in 1050 AD.

Um, is Professor Binns implying that Connor Gryffindor is behind the schism in the Holy See?

Ha, it’s not impossible...

"The Age of Witch Hunting" is like a documentary-oriented satirical novel. It tells the story of the witch-hunting movement launched by the Christian Church in the Muggle world from the 15th to the 18th century. It describes in detail how those Muggle women died tragically because of the stupid Muggles. in hand.

The book is full of ridicule and malice towards Muggles. It is written in the book that this massive witch hunting campaign killed nearly one hundred thousand "witches", and the total number of wizards in Europe may not even amount to one hundred thousand.

Apparently the author of this book believed that no real witches would die at the hands of Muggles, they only killed poor ordinary women.

After reading this, Connor thought thoughtfully. The split of Christianity happened in 1529 AD, which happened to be the middle of the witch-hunting movement. This was obviously not a coincidence.

Well, before that, it was the Catholic Church that issued the order for witch hunting, and the Catholic Church is a power of wizards, so Professor Binns was hinting to me that the Catholic Church wanted to eliminate heretical "witches", and then was divided by the wizards who united. Already?

Well, it's not impossible...

As for the "Signing of the International Statute of Secrecy", it's strange. It says that in 1689, wizards signed the International Statute of Secrecy, and then turned to covert matters.

This book does not mention the church at all.

Wait, is this Professor Binns hinting to himself that the frustrated church finally made peace with the wizards and agreed to withdraw from the stage of history?

Now, it's not impossible...

Maybe a ghost? (ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻

Connor, who had read three books, not only did not understand, but was even more confused. This Professor Binns is purely disgusting, is this?

Don’t say anything and just let yourself guess? Well, Connor also feels that his guess is very reasonable...

Although Connor didn't draw any useful conclusions, he could still understand why wizards didn't like the church so much, because the Holy See was just a bastard, a bastard.

We are all extraordinary people, but you think about killing your own people every day?

In fact, Connor originally wanted to use the church's information to assess the degree of threat the church posed to him.

Now it seems that the power of the church is not as strong as imagined?

If Connor's conjecture is true, then the church should be like a street rat in the wizarding world, rather than a rule maker.

It seems that Dumbledore did not lie to himself. This new professor really can't do anything to him, so Connor doesn't need to worry too much.

However, Connor did not expect that Gryffindor would be related to the first schism in the church.

Connor can be considered half a Gryffindor disciple, but he is not very familiar with this cheap master.

There are very few historical records from thousands of years ago, and I have no way to learn more about it...

!

Wait, Connor was stunned. He seemed to have forgotten a magical place. Connor hurried out of the library and ran upstairs.

In front of the Room of Requirement, Connor stopped here. He regretted why he hadn't thought of this good idea before.

Although I don’t know if it will work, I won’t suffer any loss if I give it a try.

"I need a place where I can learn about the history of the split between Gryffindor and the Holy See."

Connor pushed the door open and actually walked into the Room of Requirement.

Connor found himself in a small room with a desk and a book on it.

I never thought there was such a place... Your room is so awesome. Connor plans to enter the room next time thinking "I need a room with a lot of cute girls" and see if he can teleport to the women's dormitory...

Connor sat at the desk and flipped through the parchment book without a cover. The book looked like a diary, with scrawled text throughout.

On the first page, there is this line: "I once watched the dawn in the dark night - Eminge Mistry."

This book seems to be very interesting, because most of its pages are devoted to...insulting the Holy See. Connor didn't know that English can also use so many curses:

"The Roman Catholic Church is truly the most ridiculous and despicable organization in the world. It is a group of incompetent people who deceive themselves and others. They are cowardly and incompetent and greedy for power. They are a group of filthy worms."

This kind of writing is everywhere. I really don’t know how much hatred this author has against the Holy See. Connor suspected that this book was the cursed book he used to record his resentment...

Connor had a hard time reading out some useful information from a bunch of greetings:

"Wizards are inherently superior to mortals. We wizards adhere to the principle of independence from each other. No matter what others do, we have no right to interfere. But why does such a disgusting organization like the Church appear?"

"...Today I met a young and powerful wizard named Godric Gryffindor. I pulled him into our resistance..."

"Yesterday Gryffindor told me that the church will also adopt children with wizarding talents, raise them and train them in magic. The church is not unreasonable.

He is so young, doesn't he know that this is a normal thing?

This is how any wizarding organization trains the next generation, but that group of church people is different! They will destroy these children! These children will not grow up thinking that they are wizards, but will actually think of themselves as so-called saints! "

"The church is too powerful, and their ambitions have been exposed. They actually try to use their power to integrate the world. It's really ridiculous!"

"...Haha, all the wizards who don't cooperate with them have become what they call 'heretics'. They are also wizards, but the disobedient wizards have become 'sinners' in the mouth of another group of shameless wizards who need to be judged. It's really ironic. ! Shameless!"

"This is the darkest age for wizards. We are living in the shadow of the Holy See, and our survival is precarious. The Holy See is too powerful, and all our resistance is in vain. Now we can only survive under the protection of Gryffindor. .”

"Gryffindor is an admirable hero, but he is not a qualified leader. He is too naive. He is trying to negotiate peace with the Holy See? We all know that is impossible. The Holy See is too powerful. The dragon will not accept the ants' request for peace, but we cannot persuade Gryffindor..."

"We established the Night's Watch organization without telling Gryffindor, and we tried to split the Holy See internally."

"...Keep it up, everything will be worth it..."

"(English expletive)"

"Gryffindor died in the end. His life's efforts were nothing more than building a safe haven far away from the sight of the Holy See. He returned there before his death, the school called Hogwarts. I think if there is a chance I should go there and have a look too."

".Our decades-long plan has finally succeeded! The Holy See has been split! It's a pity that Gryffindor can no longer see this scene, but this is not enough! Although the Holy See has been split, their strength is still strong, and we wizards are still only It’s not enough to survive in the cracks, it’s far from enough.”

"..." (leave a large paragraph blank)

"I didn't expect that I would find this diary that I had forgotten for more than thirty years. Hahaha, it's really full of memories. Unfortunately, I don't have much time left..."

"...Hahaha, just today, the Holy See started their 'holy war'. I saw the mighty Crusaders waving their chess pieces and heading east. Unfortunately, I can no longer see the result. My body has already Almost collapsed..."

"...I finally came to this school, Hogwarts, before I died. The environment here is really good, and the students are also very good. It is indeed a place that Gryffindors can talk about with a smile. I really hope that we wizards can be like this in the future. Live healthily and happily under the sun. In that way, my life will be considered valuable."
