Harry Potter's Bastard

The existence of the Purges is inseparable from the unique history of the United States - not a one-sided description of the history of wizards or Muggles, but the history of the land.

With the discovery of the New World, Muggles flocked to it, and with it, wizards, although wizards had known about the existence of the New World for a long time, but before that, not many wizards were interested in this backward land, at best, a few wizarding explorers would come here to visit.

But when the Muggles began to exploit the land, wizards followed, along with slave traders, and since there were slaves, there would be fugitive catchers who existed to catch fugitive slaves, and the Purges developed from here.

Since there was no magical government of any kind in the New World at the time, the Purges exploited loopholes in the law enforcement mechanism. Whether they are criminals or fugitive slaves, as long as they can be exchanged for a bounty, the purges will choose to hunt and kill. Over time, these people became more and more corrupt and brutal. Eventually, they even began to sell wizards, even taking innocent Muggles as wizards and giving them to the Puritans who hunted witches in exchange for payment.

If that's all there is to it, these so-called purges are just bad guys for money. There's a limit to what can be done, but when wizards get involved, things are a little different.

As long as there are people, there will be conflicts of interest, and the same is true for wizards. In order to persecute their own kind of people who had a conflict of interest with them, they used the group of Purges—of course, not the Purges at the time, but only its predecessors.

The sorcerers used the group to fight against dissidents, slandering - not a smear, of course, but simply revealing the identities of the same kind of sorcerers to the Puritans. Ordinary people naturally couldn't deal with wizards, especially when the technology was backward at that time.

But just because ordinary people can't do it doesn't mean wizards can't.

There were even many wizards who joined this group and persecuted other wizards of the same kind according to the requirements of their employers, at this time, the concept of purifiers slowly became clear, until the revelation of the Salem wizarding case that shocked the world, the Wizarding Congress at that time on the one hand severely cracked down on the scum among these wizards, and at the same time resolutely cut ties with Muggles and hid themselves more carefully.

The wizards of the Purges were quickly defeated by the Magic Congress, but the Muggle descendants they left behind were hidden, they knew of the existence of wizards, and even some of them were quite familiar with wizarding society. They inherited the hatred and ideas of their ancestors, hated wizards for no reason, and worked to expose wizarding society to the eyes of the general public.

They did achieve something – with the help of some wizards.

As Hegel said, the only lesson that humanity learns from history is that humanity never learns a lesson.

The reason why the Purges were able to develop to that extent later was because of the involvement of wizards, which caused such a serious impact. But now, some people are taking advantage of the descendants of these purges.

You know, in this land at Solim's feet, there is one crime that will face very serious charges, and that is to expose the wizarding society. The purges, on the other hand, are committed to this work.

Both sides...... In other words, the wizards unilaterally chose to use this group once again to help them fight against dissidents. In the Wizarding Congress, if you've ever exposed your wizarding identity, with or without serious consequences, your political career is over.

There are some wizards who have not learned the lessons of the previous one and ...... again To be precise, they never gave up on exploiting the Purges.

"So you have to be extra careful over here, lest someone use your wizarding status to make a fuss. Elrond reminded: "This kind of thing is very troublesome to deal with here. "

"So, has anyone already used this tactic against us?"

It's just some pawns that have been used by others, and since Elrond is so solemnly reminded, it must be something that happened before.

"That's right, some undying stuff. Elrond looked very disdainful, "Although the matter was solved last time, it doesn't mean that they will give up using this method to block us." "

Wizards and Muggles are very similar in their social makeup, and wizards are actually more influenced by Muggles. One of the easiest examples of this is the concept of the state. With the exception of ancient families like Selwyn, wizards in general, and even a large proportion of pure-blood wizards, identify with their own national labels.

The Presbyterian Church and the Magical Congress are the embodiment of the wizarding social state. Unless there is a war, if you come to other people's territory, you still have to follow the rules that should be followed.

"Is there anything I need to be aware of?" asked Solim.

If he is not familiar with the place, Solim thinks that it is better to learn from the experience of his predecessors, at least he can know some routines, so as not to be fooled.

"Stay away from strangers, and, don't show your wand unless you have to, lest it be seen by some scum. "

The first one is not much to say, but the latter one is a bit more difficult.

For a professionally trained wizard like Solim, the first action in the event of any unexpected situation is to draw his wand - this is already a subconscious action, and there is no need to think about it. It is difficult to overcome this almost instinctive behavior.

"It's a little hard," Solim smacked his lips, "but I'll try." "

Elrond glanced at him, but didn't say much.

"Can you tell me about the itinerary? Solim wandered around the room in a fit of shape.

"Tomorrow your fiancée will come over, and you'll be attending various occasions together during this time. Elrond's words made Solim feel uncomfortable.

"Ahh Solim looked at his own face reflected on the window pane—it was a face with a strange expression.

"We ...... Uh, I mean, she's not going to live here, is she?" asked Solim cautiously.

"Any questions?" Elrond said as a matter of course, "I don't want that little girl who doesn't know anything to get involved, but she's your fiancée, and she's already half Selwyn, and she'll take Selwyn's last name when you're officially married—there's no doubt about that." "

Solim suddenly felt that maybe it would be better to stay at Hogwarts, and while Riddle and Voldemort were tricky, it was easier than dealing with a little girl, even if the so-called "little girl" was two years older than him.
