Chapter 35: Theo: No way! Tom, you really believe it?
Although Tom didn't want to stay with Theo, he didn't want to have a so-called guardian watching him all the time.
In fact, Tom and Theo were the same kind of people.
In the future, there will inevitably be many little secrets that they don't want others to know.
The reason why he wanted to stay alone was actually the same as Theo.
Theo finally agreed to Tom's proposal and prepared to join hands with him to break away from Dumbledore's "gaze".
After breaking away, the two parted ways.
Theo had no objection to this. Even if he wanted to get merit points from Tom, there was no need to stay together all day.
Anyway, everyone will be in the same school, even the same college, in the future, and there will be no shortage of opportunities to get merit points from him.
Moreover, like Tom, he also had many secrets that he couldn't let anyone know.
Therefore, living alone is the best choice.
After the two discussed, they continued to do their own things.
After half an hour of busy work without interfering with each other, Tom suddenly asked, "Why didn't you accept Grindelwald's recruitment?"
Theo put down the "Complete Transfiguration" in his hand, "Why would you ask that?"
"I just recalled Grindelwald's words last night, don't you think... what he said is actually very reasonable?"
Tom took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped his wand while saying, "Also, if we had agreed to Grindelwald's recruitment last night, could we have been directly free? We wouldn't have to rack our brains to move out by ourselves like now..."
Theo smiled, "You think what he said is reasonable? I think you were attracted by the so-called 'knowledge and power' he promised, right? You don't look like a 'patriotic and people-loving' guy."
Tom couldn't help blushing when his inner thoughts were directly exposed.
But he quickly recovered, "Putting aside his promises to us, what he said is indeed very reasonable!"
"Look, we all have powerful power, those Muggles are so weak in front of us, why can we only hide and dare not let Muggles find out?"
"In my opinion, the strong ruling the weak is a matter of course! We should stand at the top of the whole world!"
"I really don't understand why Dumbledore wants to stop him."
Theo looked at Tom in surprise, "No way, Tom? Grindelwald's words... you really believe it?"
Tom frowned, "Isn't this very reasonable? Why don't I believe it?"
Theo sighed and said helplessly, "The reason why you think what he said is reasonable is just because he told you what you wanted to hear."
"What we want to hear?" Tom frowned.
"Don't you always think you are special?" Theo asked.
"Of course!" Tom said proudly.
Theo leaned on the pillow and said leisurely, "Many wizards have the same idea as you, thinking that they are more noble than Muggles because they have magic. Therefore, Grindelwald will seize this point and start touting your uniqueness..."
"'Magic only blooms in the souls of a few people', what moving words..."
"When you heard this sentence, did you feel very happy? Did you feel that you were the most special group? Did you feel that you should be above all ordinary people? Did you feel that you were the chosen one?"
"When you think like this, you are trapped. Because at that time, you will feel that breaking the Statute of Secrecy is justified, and if you want to break the Statute of Secrecy, you naturally have to join his Grindelwald's team... and this is his real purpose."
"When he invited us to join last night, did he mention any of his ideological views? No!"
"What did he say? He told us that as long as we join his camp, he can provide us with the power we desire!"
"Why did he only tell us about gaining power and not tell us anything else? Because he knew that you and I were still young and had no concept of changing the world. We were only interested in power."
"Therefore, he only told us about power to lure us to join... that is to say, all the views and ideas from Grindelwald's mouth are actually not in line with reality. He just speaks human language when he sees people and speaks ghost language when he sees ghosts."
"His real purpose is just to find more supporters, get more loyal followers, and then help him reach the top of the world."
"As for what happens to this world, what happens to other wizards, and what happens to other Muggles, he doesn't care at all."
"In fact, he is not a revolutionary who sincerely wants to change the world, but an ambitious person who uses revolution as an excuse to achieve his own goals."
Tom only felt his head buzzing, "Can't his ideas really be realized one day?"
In Tom's view, what will happen to the world later has nothing to do with him. He only cares whether what Grindelwald advocates can really be realized in the end.
If wizards can really rule the world in the end, then Tom doesn't care, as long as he is also one of the people standing on the clouds.
"It can't be realized. Even if it is realized in the end, it can't last long."
"Just as I said just now, he doesn't care about the world or other people. That is to say, his ideas can't make the world better, but will only make the world more chaotic! Worse!"
"Therefore, when people of insight realize this, they will definitely stand up to stop him, such as... Dumbledore."
"And in addition to the resistance of these people of insight... do you think Muggles will resist if they really fight?"
"Don't think that Muggles are all weak, just ants, not worth worrying about..."
"Do you know how many wizards there are in this world, and how many Muggles there are?"
"No matter how powerful you are, how many Muggles can you kill? And do you really think that the Muggle violent organs are just a group of farmers waving pitchforks?"
"Don't forget that the purpose of the promulgation of the International Statute of Secrecy is not to protect Muggles... but to protect wizards from the hands of Muggles!"
"Believe me, if the ambitious people among the Muggles know the existence of wizards, what they will do will be ten thousand times more terrible than what Grindelwald will do!"
"Therefore, Grindelwald's final outcome is either to be ended by Dumbledore and other people of insight, or to drag the entire wizarding world to be buried with him..."
Tom was completely silent after listening to Theo's analysis.
Even if he looked down on Muggles, he also knew that what Theo said was true.
In fact, no matter how strong the individual combat ability of wizards is, they are not bulletproof supermen.
What's more, not every wizard is strong... most wizards are not good at fighting.
If wizards really want to go to war with Muggles, then a lose-lose situation is the best ending.
The biggest possibility is that wizards will have their wands confiscated, become experimental products of Muggles, and then be thrown into the laboratory for slicing research...
For most wizards, what is the difference between them and ordinary people without wands?
Almost, at the moment of the start of the war, the tragic ending of the wizards is doomed...
