Chapter 115 In the Name of Freedom
Brother Yan fell down straight.
It is also a tragedy to say that since Erwin got his technique of using the powerful Oblivion Curse from Lockhart, he has used it on Malfoy twice in a row.
After all, the little wizard's magic power is very weak, and his soul is not strong, so it is not difficult to modify his memory.This time, it is enough to erase Malfoy's ten-minute memory, and there is no need to make any changes, so it should not cause a disturbance like last time.
Erwin turned to look at Dobby, "How does it feel to be free?"
Dobby looked at him timidly, but didn't answer.
It stands to reason that he should be grateful to the young man in front of him, but he feels afraid.
This may be because of the other party's overly decisive style of acting.
"You no longer owe your allegiance to the Malfoy family. Now you should be able to tell me what you know about this family? Even if it's just for...revenge?" Erwin asked again.
The house elf's attitude really surprised him, but he didn't really care, he didn't need the little thing to be grateful to him.
Dobby nodded.
"Very good." Erwin looked at the cookie and pancake pan again, "Take him back to the kitchen, please, I'll be there later."
Pancake Pan hesitated to speak, but Cookie gave him a glare and signaled him to stop talking nonsense.
With a snap, the three house-elves Apparated away.
"It's over like this? This bestowing process is too outrageous." Melanie said.
She deserves credit. Without her help, Erwin would not be able to think of a way to let Brother Yan come here alone. Although he is young and inexperienced, Brother Drag is still very cautious. The last time he took the initiative to find Erwin Erwin was in trouble, and he also found a seventh-grade prefect as a thug to make sure everything was safe.
So Erwin doesn't mind chatting with Melanie now, "Outrageous? It doesn't count, because there is no real power to force Dobby to be a slave. He is free, but he didn't before. He thinks he is free, and only after going through such a formal process will he feel that he has gained 'freedom'."
"It's a bit convoluted."
"Wander around? Magic is idealism, and the world changes due to will." Erwin shrugged, "What Dobby needs to get rid of is just the shackles of cognition."
"Does that mean that all house elves can get rid of their status as slaves in this way? Their magical ability is generally stronger than that of ordinary wizards. Will there be an elf rebellion by then?" Melanie said with a corner of her mouth With a smirk.
As a vampire, of course she is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
"Slaves who wake up hungry and cold, elves who wake up unwilling to suffer?" Erwin answered in an operatic tone, then shook his head, "Unfortunately, the possibility of this happening is very slim."
"Didn't you say that there is no coercive power to force house-elves to be slaves?" Melanie tilted her head.
"First of all, I'm just saying that this is the case with Dobby. I'm not sure if other house elves are affected by some kind of curse or contract." Erwin said very slowly, "Secondly, even if there is really no coercion Power, even with the character of a house-elf, it is impossible to gather a crowd to rebel."
He started pacing, "If you get in touch with those elves in the kitchen, you will think that they are a pure slave race, proud of labor and service, ashamed of betraying their masters, freedom is what they fear most. Dobby is just a special case, the kind of morally corrupt individual that occasionally appears in a group. If it weren't for the name of the headmaster, Cookie and Pancake Pan would never have helped me make him betray the master."
He paused, "So I think the people who cultivated the species of house elves are really brilliant. The power of the curse will fade with time, and there are loopholes in the soul contract, and it is difficult to pass it on to the next generation. Only the soul Shackles, strong, secure and efficient."
He walked slowly to the door, "Speaking of freedom, what is the definition of freedom? It means being able to do what you want? Since the house elves voluntarily serve wizards and get happiness from it, liberate them in the name of freedom. Isn’t that in itself a violation of the concept of freedom?”
Melanie pursed her lips in disdain. Just as she was about to find a loophole in the sophistry, Erwin suddenly pulled the door open. Standing at the door was a blond man with a face full of astonishment who hadn't reacted at all. girl.
"Eavesdropping is not a good habit, Miss Luna Lovegood, have you ever heard the saying that curiosity kills the cat?"
Erwin maintained a polite smile, but the wand was already pointed at the other party, and a thrust that was not too violent but not gentle was generated, pushing Luna into the classroom, and the door closed immediately.
The Marauder's Map has been laid out on the table. Erwin intends to use it to observe whether there are other people who are close to this empty classroom, so as to ensure that the plan for Brother Yan is secret enough that no accidents will happen. Some pre-arrangement had worked, and just now, he noticed that the dot representing Luna Lovegood was just outside the classroom.
She should have passed by halfway, because Erwin didn't see her name before attacking Malfoy, and he didn't know if she was lucky or unlucky.
Erwin said so much about house-elves on purpose, also for the purpose of attracting this eavesdropper.
Luna was fixed on a chair by the force she couldn't break free from. Erwin maintained the direction guidance given by the kinetic energy with his left hand, and pointed his wand at her with his right hand. This girl's facial features are very strange, but the combination is unexpectedly quite good. pleasing to the eye.
Her school uniform has blue and bronze badges, belonging to Ravenclaw House.
Luna, who was in a controlled state, was still calm, "I didn't eavesdrop on purpose, please don't use the Oblivion Curse on me." She said quickly and loudly.
"You know that I can use the Forgetting Curse?" Erwin shook his head pretending to be helpless, "Then I really have to use the Forgetting Curse on you."
Luna's face froze.
Melanie on the side burst out laughing directly.
Erwin's eyes shifted to the chest of the little girl Yimapingchuan, without any special meaning, what he looked at was a brooch with some runic letters engraved on it.
With a thought, the clasp of the brooch was undone and flew into Erwin's hand.
With Erwin's current rune level, it only takes a few simple steps to identify its effect. Of course, this brooch is a magic item, but its function is very single, and only a low-level detection spell has been fixed.
Just enough to break the silencing spell Erwin placed in this classroom.
What a coincidence.
