Elwyn was going to write a letter to Rita Skeeter and ask her out for a meeting. He and Hermione would be in charge of this matter.
Other than gathering his henchmen, the second thing Lord Voldemort needed to do now was to figure out why he had failed.
He had lost to Harry twice in a row, especially during the confrontation between him and Harry's wand during his resurrection ceremony. The shadows of people he had killed had appeared one after another, which must have made him doubt himself. He wanted to know the complete prophecy of that year.
Lord Voldemort must have blamed his failure on the incomplete prophecy and his wand.
He believed that it would not be long before he discovered the problem with his wand and fell into the pit that Dumbledore had dug for him in advance.
"When we went down to the kitchen to eat just now, you all saw the parchment on the table, right?" Elwyn said.
"I saw it. It seemed to be the blueprint of some building."
"Yes, Fred and George said before that the members of the Order of the Phoenix were guarding something to prevent Lord Voldemort from getting …"
"Wait a minute, isn't the thing they're protecting Harry?" Ron said.
He was still thinking about Azkaban and the Dementors and did not keep up with Elwyn's train of thought.
"It's not Harry, but something else. Otherwise, they wouldn't have put those parchments on the table tonight." Hermione said, recalling the drawings she had seen at the time. "That is indeed the floor plan of a building …"
Although her feet were being held by Elwyn, which made Hermione's heart ripple, her train of thought was not affected.
After gradually getting used to it, Hermione calmed down. Stepping on Elwyn's stomach was soft, warm, and very comfortable.
It usually looked like there was not much meat on it, but it did not feel like that when stepping on it …
"That must be it. There must be something preserved in that building."
"What is it?" Harry asked.
"I'm not sure yet." Elwyn could not tell them everything. That would make him seem too omnipotent. He was thinking about how to use Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters to infiltrate the Department of Mystery Affairs. Should he act according to the original plot or cooperate with the Order of the Phoenix?
The former was undoubtedly the most convenient method and could easily paralyze the Lord Voldemort, but it was also very dangerous.
It was not a good idea to let a bunch of little Wizards fight the Death Eaters.
Perhaps he could be flexible and let them think that his plan had succeeded and hide it from the Order of the Phoenix.
But in reality, it was the complete opposite, an ambush …
"It's something that Dumbledore and the Phoenix Social Security are in charge of. I think it might be a weapon." Fred suddenly said.
"That's right, a weapon he didn't have when he was in power," George added.
"What do you think it will be?" Harry asked, looking around at everyone in the room.
"Anything is possible," Fred said, obviously excited.
"I'm not sure, and I don't know what kind of weapon would have such power, but it can't be more powerful than the Avada Curse, right?" Ron said. "What is more terrifying than death?"
"That's hard to say. Maybe it's something that can kill many people at once," George guessed.
"Maybe it's a particularly painful way to kill people," Ron said fearfully.
"He already has the Heart Drilling Curse!" Harry said. "He doesn't need anything more effective than that."
Hermione and Ginny also said their guesses, but they were all rejected.
"Elwyn, do you know of any powerful weapons or magical items that can bring lasting fear to people?"
"That's too many. I recommend you to read the book 'Legendary Magical Items Catalog'. Most of the legendary magical items recorded in it have amazing power and can bring great disaster or fear to the world," Elwyn said.
"Those are all legends, the things in them are all missing," Ron said. "It's unknown if they ever existed."
"Legends are not completely made up."
"No matter what, since such a weapon exists, we have to help the Order of the Phoenix protect it," Hermione said suddenly, seeming to have made up her mind.
"What can we do?" Ron said in panic. "Fight a group of evil Death Eaters? That's crazy … "
"Since Elwyn and Harry can do it, so can we!" "I've been thinking about this. Since Voldemort has returned, we have to learn some real spells if we want to fight him and protect ourselves. Not those defensive spells, but practical spells that can be used in gladiatorial battles. We might even need to learn restriction-level black magic." Hermione said quickly, not showing any signs of shyness at all.
Ron looked at her in surprise, thinking that Hermione had gone crazy.
The others also looked at Hermione, and Elwyn's hand also stopped. Was Hermione going to bring up the concept of "Dumbledore's Army"?
"Elwyn can be responsible for teaching us those spells, and Harry has a lot of fighting experience, which we lack." Hermione said, "We can learn them now, and we can use them when we fight Lord Voldemort in the future."
"I'm fine with that!" Elwyn said. It seemed that Hermione's thinking had not expanded to such a large scale as Dumbledore's Army.
However, this was a good idea. They definitely could not rely on themselves to fight Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
Helping them increase their strength would make them capable helpers, and it would also be a form of protection for everyone.
Once the war started, any kind of accident could happen. They would only be safer if they were strong enough.
Elwyn did not want anyone to be killed in battle. That was not something he wanted to happen.
"If there are no objections …" Hermione said, her gaze sweeping across everyone.
"Objections? Are you joking?" Fred said. "This is a great idea, Hermione!"
"I've always wanted to learn magic from Elwyn. I dare say that many people in the school dream about it," George said. "Elwyn, do you have any strong dark magic?"
"Elwyn is the most powerful wizard I know, second only to Dumbledore," Ginny said, looking at Elwyn with a burning gaze.
"I have no objections either," Harry said.
He had already received a lot of help from Elwyn, including how to cast various spells.
However, this was the first time he was learning systematically like this, and he was also looking forward to what Elwyn would teach them.
Everyone knew what Elwyn had experienced and done before, and many of them were simply miracles.
His strength had already been recognized, and teaching everyone magic would not be a problem. It was purely a waste of talent.
If Hermione had not brought it up, the others might have been too embarrassed to say it. After all, everyone knew that Elwyn was very busy.
