Seeing Allen's arrogance, Lisa could not help but think of Allen's gentleness and the current situation. She also remembered that she was saved by Allen when she first entered the school. She pulled her blue scarf and said loudly, "You brought so many people, but Allen only has himself! He only installed a few cameras as proof to protect himself. This is not too much! "
The young wizards, especially the young witches, agreed with her. After arriving outside the auditorium, they changed their positions, making it look like Allen was going against the entire board of directors. Filius Flick, the dean of Ravenclaw College, did come with Allen, but he was only 1.07 meters tall, and when he stood next to Allen, it looked like Allen was protecting him.
Gringlass snorted coldly. He did not lower himself to quarrel with the little girls. In order to avoid any more trouble, he only urged Dumbledore. "Dumbledore, since things have come to this, let's hurry up and end today's agenda as soon as possible."
The school board members stood behind Dumbledore in a fan-shaped formation and looked at Dumbledore.
Dumbledore touched his crooked nose. Judging from Allen's performance and the information he got from Lupin, he was sure that Allen was going to fight in some legal way. He took a few steps forward and came to the center of the square outside the door.
Dumbledore clasped his hands together in front of him. He did not want to leave any loopholes that could be used to attack him. He looked at the wizards in the hall and said, "Today, most of the school board members and I have gathered here for this board meeting. The main purpose of this board meeting is to discuss the recent concerns and issues that our school's education and teaching has attracted in the magic world."
The wizards in the hall quietly listened to Dumbledore and waited for him to continue.
"This is not a good sign …" Michael elbowed Edward, who was next to him. "Do you remember the argument between Principal Dumbledore and Allen in the ancient magic class? This time, Dumbledore did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he wants to follow the rules and conduct a 'discussion' first. "
Dumbledore's old voice was very serious. "If the wizarding world wants to develop, it is a good thing to pay attention to education. However, the current situation is not good for our Hogwarts. Some of the teaching arrangements in the ancient magic class and the recent incident, as well as the discussion that has led to, have some negative effects on the safety and reputation of the hogwarts students. As the principal of the Hogwarts, I think it is time to discuss and vote on this course. We need to decide if the content of this course is suitable for the underage wizards in the school, and if it is suitable for us to continue teaching in our Hogwarts. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about this?"
"I don't think there's a need to set up a course like Ancient Magic. The content taught in this course is mostly magic that is too powerful and is only useful in battle. It contains a lot of black magic, which is not suitable for students who are not mature enough to learn!" Ben Bostel could not wait to stand up. When he spoke, his double chin trembled.
"It also includes necromancy. Many parents, including me, have written to the school to express their opposition. What's more, the undead creatures have hurt the young wizards who are practicing magic. This is a serious teaching accident. Although the consequences are not as serious as ordinary magic spells, it has exposed hidden dangers. So, if Professor Harris is not willing to listen to Dumbledore's advice and suggestions and adjust the content of the lesson plan, I have no choice but to recommend banning this class." Amelia Burns raised her voice. She was one of the parents who wrote a letter to object. After Susan was attacked, she was so agitated that she sent a few letters, asking Susan to withdraw from the class and asking for an explanation from Dumbledore. She had always been fair and impartial, so she did not blindly act with a vengeful attitude. Otherwise, her first target would have been the fat guy who spoke before her.
Two members of the board of directors said that they wanted to ban the ancient magic class. This caused a commotion among the young wizards. This time, the professors quickly maintained their silence.
When Algie Longbottom heard Neville's words, he looked at his nephew's round and somewhat dull face and sighed. He stood up and said, "The evil trend in the world of magic is very bad. It's as if the Ministry of Magic no longer has the responsibility to protect the common people. It's as if if you don't learn black magic, you won't be able to improve your strength and protect yourself. Now, the tradition has been broken. Wizards are betraying their beliefs and doing some feudal superstition for small profits. The world of magic is in a mess.
In fact, I have to admit and emphasize that this year's Ministry of Magic is under the control of Professor Harris' family. I think they have done a good job in maintaining the safety of the wizarding world. Although, I have my reservations about the so-called temple incident and the opening of dangerous knowledge to all wizards.
Other than protesting, I don't have any other position to criticize the Hogwarts. However, as a member of the board of directors of the Hogwarts School, I don't think this kind of bad practice should be allowed to spread in the Hogwarts. There are many ways to improve the strength of the students. Transfiguration, Magic Spells, Defense Against Black Magic, and so on. Since we wizards have been doing this for a long time, we should keep this tradition. Susan Burns' injury has been a wake-up call for us. Underage students and wizards who haven't been exposed to magic shouldn't try to control these dangerous forces. Therefore, I think magic classes should be banned. In addition, I would like to appeal to all the reputable and capable families in the wizarding world to unite and propose to the Ministry of Magic. I think this kind of random spreading of knowledge should be banned outside of the Hogwarts School. "
"It's the pure-bloods who are against it! It's fine if it's in the school, but what about outside of the school? That's a bit too much. " Fregg was worried about Allen and his plan to protect his family would fail. He angrily punched his other hand with his fist.
"No, Fregg. You know the Longbarton Family. Uncle Alji doesn't mean any harm to Muggle. In fact, he's a very nice person. He gave me Raffles." Neville was caught in the middle and lowered his head sadly. "He's just too conservative. He was very disgusted by Professor Harris' speech in the Ravenclaw Temple."
"Doesn't mean any harm to Muggle?" Fregg snorted. "The Longbarton Family doesn't mean any harm to Muggle because pure-bloods should rule Muggle? Is that what you think too? "
"No! Fregg, how could you do this … "
"Stop arguing. It's not Neville's fault." Susan's guilty expression was no less than Neville's. "If it weren't for me, my aunt wouldn't have done it so violently."
"Ha, what an interesting combination of pure-bloods, half-bloods, and mudbloods." Milleson Bast crossed his arms and gloated. "A stupid class like this should have been banned long ago. Longbarton, you shouldn't oppose your uncle. Harris betrayed us first."
The purple robe dotted with golden stars moved closer to Allen. Dumbledore turned the ring on his withered hand in his sleeve and looked at Allen with his bright blue eyes behind his half-moon glasses. "Professor Harris, you're also a board member of the school. Do you have anything to say about these issues? After all, this is your class. "
