At dinner, Hermione thought for a moment before finally asking the question that had been on her mind: "If it's so easy to save Buckbeak, why do we still need to see that hateful Lucius?" Hermione hadn't forgotten Lucius's threats against her parents.
"Hermione, you need to understand that we also need witnesses. We need to be in front of them during the time Buckbeak disappears. Otherwise, they'll still target Harry. They won't find me, and even if they do, it doesn't matter. Their power isn't as strong as mine. You must remember that no matter where you are, strength is fundamental." Lan Luo had spent several worlds pursuing strength, and sometimes he felt a little tired.
Harry also pondered, "Are you really the 'Eternal God-King' that Professor Trelawney shouted about in Divination class?"
Ron gasped, his eyes wide as he looked at Lan Luo, then at Harry, his gaze darting between the two. For this friend they had known since their first year, they felt a sense of both closeness and distance.
"I think so," Lan Luo said, not caring that they knew.
Hermione then spoke, "So Lan Luo, now that you've become a God-King, do you have any goals? For example, controlling the entire Wizarding World?"
"I don't have such ambition. Haven't you noticed? Ever since I started learning magic, I've been creating. Whether it's the magic ring, magical potions, vampire potions, or the complete wolfsbane potion, all of these have a profound impact on the development of the Wizarding World." Lan Luo wanted to discuss this with them.
"And if I didn't have strength, who knows, I might have disappeared from this world at any time, perhaps even in my first year outside of school. After all, the Weasleys have so many excellent wizards in their family, but they are still at the lower echelons of the Wizarding World. As for those at the top, they want to eliminate all change. They don't want anyone to change the Wizarding World, because that would mean someone is outstanding, and being outstanding would affect their status. Can you understand what I'm saying?"
Ron nodded at this, saying, "What you said about our family's situation is indeed true."
Hermione was somewhat incredulous: "How is that possible? The Ministry of Magic would assassinate a Little Wizard?"
"Perhaps you can ask Ron how many Muggle-born wizards are in the Ministry of Magic, what percentage they make up, and if there are any Muggle-born wizards in the upper echelons." Lan Luo patiently explained.
When Hermione and Harry looked at Ron, Ron, though he swallowed, finally nodded and said, "My father told me that over eighty percent of the wizards in the Ministry of Magic are children of certain families. There are Muggles too, but very few, and there are no Muggle-born wizards in the upper echelons. Even families like ours are not very welcome in the Ministry of Magic."
Lan Luo continued, "Dumbledore defeated The Dark Lord back then, and Ron's family has always followed Dumbledore, yet they receive such treatment. Most Pure-blood families followed The Dark Lord back then, and now they are firmly in high positions. Harry, tell me, if one day The Dark Lord revives, will the Ministry of Magic be The Dark Lord's Ministry of Magic, or the Wizarding World's Ministry of Magic?"
All three of them couldn't help but swallow, perhaps shocked by this enormous news, or perhaps enticed by the delicious food on the table.
Ron's hand seemed to jump at this, knocking over the plate and cutlery on the table: "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Hermione also came back to her senses: "Lan Luo, how is that possible?"
Harry also spoke, "It's entirely possible. Do you remember Peter Pettigrew? Even if he committed a heinous crime, the Ministry of Magic could just keep delaying his trial, and eventually, when people forgot, they could release him. After all, they wouldn't want to offend Voldemort's most loyal servant."
Harry also had strong opinions about the Ministry of Magic. From Fudge's probing and concealment to the wrongful accusation of his godfather, Sirius, and finally the handling of Peter Pettigrew, all of this made Harry instinctively believe Lan Luo's words.
"Hermione, we are slowly growing up, but politics is dark. I truly hope we never encounter the darkness of politics. To our tomorrow, cheers." Lan Luo raised his happy drink at the dinner table, offering a toast to everyone.
The three exchanged glances and smiled, raising their glasses.
After finishing his drink, Lan Luo happily said to Harry, "I made a wand from elder wood. After you see Hagrid, please give it to him for me. It's a gift to celebrate him becoming a professor."
With that, Lan Luo took out a dark, black, bamboo-joint-like wand from his magic ring. Since it was for a half-giant, it was relatively larger.
Harry took the wand Lan Luo floated over with a Levitation Charm. He waved it and felt no obstruction in using it, much like the wand he had received himself.
"It's truly amazing, this wand feels just like my own wand." Harry was also a bit incredulous.
At this moment, Hermione suddenly opened her eyes wide and exclaimed, "The elder wand."
Ron then spoke, confused, "Impossible, that wand is in Dumbledore's hands."
Harry was equally puzzled: "What is the elder wand?"
Hermione, ever the know-it-all, explained, "One of the Deathly Hallows. Legend says it's a wand that can make its owner invincible in battle, capable of unleashing immense magic in duels, and its wielder can easily cast powerful spells. The elder wand is also known as the Deathstick, the Wand of Destiny, or the elder wand."
Facing the astonished expressions of the three, who were staring at him with wide eyes, Lan Luo slowly said, "Hey, relax, this isn't that wand. In fact, the rings you're wearing contain the power of the Resurrection Stone, one of the three Hallows, capable of projecting the person you most wish to see in your heart. Of course, this ability can easily lead to obsession, so I modified the viewing time."
Hermione then spoke, hearing Lan Luo's words, "But you had just started school then."
"Yes, I had just started school then, so didn't I create many other things later?" Everyone who heard Lan Luo's words was a bit speechless, thinking, 'Is that what I was talking about?'
"And Harry's cloak, that's also one of the three Hallows. Legend says that gathering the three Hallows allows you to see Shinigami, and thus gain a powerful strength or the power of resurrection. Of course, these are all legends."
Harry was also a bit happy to hear Lan Luo's words: "Is that cloak really one of the three Hallows?"
"Perhaps you can look through 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard'; it has a detailed story. Also, the fate of those who obtain the Hallows is not usually good, so you should be mentally prepared." Lan Luo also gave Harry a heads-up, as the fate of those three brothers was not very good.
