Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Chapter 287 Ask the whole world to be a witness

Hearing Sebastian's warning, Snape had no doubts, sat up straight silently, then drew out his wand and hid it under his black robe, ready to take action at any time.

At the same time, he quickly scanned everything in the venue and soon found some discordant places.

At each exit, there were a few Ilvermorny students standing in twos and threes. They seemed to be chatting and laughing, as if they were watching a game.

But if you look closely, you can see that their smiles are a little stiff, and some people's arms are even shaking slightly.

Something is wrong indeed!

In order to prevent the other party from noticing his peeping, Snape quickly withdrew his gaze and raised his vigilance to the highest level.

The atmosphere in the venue was very lively, with cheers for the players everywhere.

But in Sebastian's magical perception, at least one-third of the audience felt wrong.

Most of these audiences are students of Ilvermorny, and there are also many who look a little older, like graduates of Ilvermorny.

The emotions they exuded were not excitement, but tension and malice.

It would be understandable if only a few individuals were malicious towards other players because they were worried about their own players, but it is not normal for so many viewers to do so.

Under Sebastian's careful observation, these people shouted "Come on" just like ordinary spectators, but they would glance in the direction of the podium from time to time.

No matter how you look at it, their attention is not on the game at hand.

Sitting on the podium were several judges, Ilvermorny's headmaster, Gilbert, and an official from the Magical Congress.

Searching his memories, Sebastian discovered that this person was none other than Barton Greggs, current Director of Magical Security and Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

This is a very tough and powerful figure in the Magic Congress, and he appears here today as a special guest.

Could it be that those people's ill intentions were directed at Patton Greggs?

By the way, does William know any inside information?

Thinking of this old friend, Sebastian looked over and found that he was looking at the contestants from Ilvermorny and smiling like an idiot. This immediately put an end to the idea of ​​asking him.

There were too few clues, so Sebastian did not delve into the matter further. Instead, he continued to watch the game, prepared to remain unchanged in the face of any changes.

There was no movement in the stadium until the end of the game.

Seeing the Hogwarts students finish the competition and return to him one after another, Sebastian finally relaxed completely.

Although I don't know what these Ilvermorny students are going to do, it doesn't look like there will be any big problems at the moment.

After all, these people were quite disciplined and it didn’t even affect the game.

Besides, they are just a bunch of students, they shouldn’t be vicious bad guys.

The ninety minutes of competition time passed in a flash, and the contestants who had not finished brewing the potion were doomed to fail to advance.

When the bell rang to signal the end of the game, before the referee announced the end of the game, a figure riding a flying broom rushed from the sky to the center of the stadium like lightning.

The wizards who were watching were in an uproar and whispered to each other, obviously shocked by this sudden situation.

Barton Greggs from the Ministry of Magic also stood up with a frown, his eyes fixed on the man in the air.

It was a very young wizard, who looked to be about Percy's age.

He brought his broom to a stop in the middle of the field, then leaped down and landed on the ground, looking straight at Barton Greggs.

"Mr. Greggs, on behalf of all young Muggle-born wizards, I request that Rappaport's Law be repealed completely."

As soon as the words fell, the whole place suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Then, low murmurs broke out all around, and many wizards showed looks of surprise and uneasiness on their faces.

"Isn't that Edward, the seventh-year student council president? What is he doing?"

"He actually made such a scene in front of so many representatives from magic schools. Is he crazy?"

The audience around was whispering uneasily, some were angry, and some seemed to be thinking about something.

The judges on the podium looked at each other in bewilderment, exchanging glances in bewilderment, as if they had not expected such a dramatic scene to occur in this competition.

The headmaster of Ilvermorny glanced at Greggs, then waved his hands anxiously at the young wizard: "Edward, what are you doing? Go back now!"

The student named Edward remained unmoved. He just stared at Greggs, waiting for his response.

His eyes were extremely determined, as if he had made up his mind to fight for the deserved interests of those little wizards of No-Maj background in public.

"Student Edward," Greggs frowned, "Rappaport's Law was officially repealed as early as 1965."

"Sir, you should know very well that it is only an abolition on paper."

Edward's neither humble nor arrogant voice spread throughout the meeting hall: "In fact, many provisions of that law are still valid today."

"That has nothing to do with today's game," Greggs said seriously, suppressing his anger, "Why don't we talk in private and return the stage to the Potions Championship."

"There are so many international guests here. We can't waste their precious time and let them think that we in Ilvermorny can't even run a potion championship properly."

"What do you think, Edward-san?"

Hearing Greggs' words, Edward shook his head slowly but firmly.

"No! I just want these distinguished guests and all the reporters to be witnesses."

"Without their witnesses, I'm afraid this matter would have come to nothing, just like the many letters I have sent to the Magic Congress over the years."

Edward's voice gradually became more excited.

"Because of the Rappaport Law, we are completely separated from No-Maj society. We are forbidden to make friends with No-Maj and we are forbidden to marry No-Maj."

"Even if there are little wizards among the No-Majs, the Magical Congress will send Aurors to forcibly take the little wizards away from their No-Majs relatives and modify the memories of their relatives."

"Because of Rappaport's Law, I have not been able to reunite with my No-Maj mother to this day."

“Because of Rappaport’s Law, many of our people are unable to meet their No-Maj relatives and friends.”

"I want to ask you, is it really appropriate to ignore our family ties like this?!"

"Today, in front of the whole world, I would like to ask the Magical Congress to completely repeal the Rappaport Law!"

As soon as he finished speaking, students stood up from the audience seats one by one. They waved their wands and changed their clothes into uniform.

Then they shouted a unified slogan to Greggs.

“Repeal the Rappaport Law!”
