"That guy always comes up with jaw-dropping ideas!"
After reading the contents on the parchment handed by George, Sirius couldn't help but sighed at Albert's whimsy.
Defense Against the Dark Arts training institute?
He really dared to think!
"Would Scrimgeour agree to such an unreliable plan?"
Although Sirius was very skeptical about the success of the so-called Defense Against the Dark Arts training institute, he did agree with the idea of finding supporters for Harry.
"I don't know, but this method is better than distributing the "Guide to Self-Defense" to everyone." Lupin took the parchment and carefully read the brief plan above, "If the plan goes well, it should greatly enhance everyone's black magic. Defense level."
"It's not easy." Sirius muttered, "If it's free, maybe some people will be willing to participate. If it's paid, it's estimated that few will be willing to participate."
"I remember you guys seem to have tried something similar before?" Lupin didn't pay attention to what Sirius said and turned to look at Fred and George.
"Yes, we had a 'Defense Society' meeting in the Room of Requirement, and there were about a few dozen students in attendance," recalls Fred. "We taught people separately and taught black magic according to their actual level. Defense content, the effect is very good, most of the students who attended the party have significantly improved their defense against the dark arts."
"What did you teach?" Sirius asked curiously.
"Stunning spells, disarming spells, iron armor spells and other relatively simple and commonly used spells." George explained, "I think some wizards have poor defense against the dark arts because they have not practiced it. As long as they get preliminary training, their The actual level will increase by leaps and bounds, maybe their dark magic defense level is still not high, but at least they have the ability to protect themselves initially."
"It does sound reasonable. The things taught in the Defense Against the Dark Arts course at Hogwarts are really useless. After graduation, most wizards will not have a high level of Defense Against the Dark Arts." Even Sirius had to admit. George is right.
"Cough cough." Lupin coughed lightly and asked back, "Do you think this plan is feasible?"
"Albert thinks Scrimgeour will agree to popularize Defence Against the Dark Arts knowledge." Fred and George exchanged a quick glance.
"The biggest question about this plan is whether you want it. If you want, it shouldn't be a problem as long as the whole plan is further improved." George added, "I suggest notifying Kingsley and Moody's to discuss it first."
"I'm here, and I heard some of what you just said." Moody limped into the living room on crutches, reached for the parchment handed by Lupin, and quickly scanned the inside. After reading the content, he took out a water bottle from his pocket, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and muttered, "That guy really dares to think!"
A weary Kingsley followed closely into the living room, took the parchment from Moody, and after reading the contents carefully, commented: "I think this is a good plan."
"Are you sure you're not joking?"
Moody turned his head sharply to Kingsley, as if wondering if the guy was a fake.
"Of course not, this method is really good, thank you."
Kingsley took the butter beer from Sirius, took a sip, and explained to a few people with puzzled faces: "First of all, your thinking is wrong."
"Thinking?"
Kingsley drank another sip of butterbeer before continuing, "Defense Against the Dark Arts training institutions are popularized in the name of the Ministry of Magic, but the Ministry of Magic does not pay much, but gets a lot of benefits, why not Scrimgeour? agree?"
"Okay, that's why George said that the biggest problem with this plan is whether we want to." Sirius couldn't help but curl his lips. "We do things, and the Ministry of Magic will benefit?"
"It doesn't count, I can only say that everyone takes what they need." Kingsley looked at George and asked, "Actually, I'm more curious about what benefits Albert can get from it? If they all learn the Iron Armor Spell, your Defense Against the Dark Arts The props may not be sold.
"I don't know, anyway, Albert can't let himself suffer, so don't worry about that." Fred was very confident in Albert.
"Are you sure the Ministry of Magic would actually agree to such an exaggerated plan?" Moody was skeptical. He had trained Aurors before and knew how difficult it was to teach a group of people, let alone the whole British wizarding community. sorcerer.
"Yes, you should have noticed that recently, the Death Eaters have been making trouble for the Ministry of Magic, making everyone in a mess. I have been working overtime for several days in a row." Kingsley reached out and rubbed his tired cheeks. " If everyone has some self-protection ability, it can also reduce the pressure on the Ministry of Magic to a certain extent."
"Albert felt that we should cultivate a group of supporters who, even if they were not invited to join the Order of the Phoenix, would be able to prepare for the final duel in the future." Fred interjected: "He thinks Harry will eventually duel with You-Know-Who. , Harry needs a group of supporters at that time, and we can just take this opportunity to attract some wizards who oppose the mysterious man to join us."
"Well, it's like the Anti-Toad League we formed at Hogwarts," Fred continued. "This coalition exists and doesn't exist."
"What do you mean?" Lupin asked with an eyebrow raised.
"So we don't need them to do anything dangerous?" George explained. "After all, in the turbulent times that follow, it's dangerous to directly support Harry and subject to retaliation, but if you support Harry quietly, It's not easy to be detected, and we can reach out to other supporters through covert radio stations.
"According to Albert's prediction, we should have one to two years left. Even if it lasts for an hour a week for a year, most people will not stretch their hips too much in Defense Against the Dark Arts. At least it was accepted by the Defense Association. The students at Hogwarts, where Lee trains, are better than most at Defence Against the Dark Arts."
"Sounds kind of plausible." Moody took another gulp from the bottle. "But I suspect it's not that simple, and some things are more troublesome than you might expect, especially if there's a fee."
"We can quote a higher price, and then we can cut the cost in half through the Ministry of Magic as before, and everyone will have nothing to complain about." Kingsley is not very worried about these issues. The cost of a few Galleons is actually It is not expensive, as long as the reputation is out, there is no need to worry that no one will come to participate.
As far as he could tell, Harry had a good Defense Society at Hogwarts, and the entire Ministry of Magic employees were terrible at Defense Against the Dark Arts, more because no one taught them than everyone was terrible.
"Well, since you think there is no problem, I can take some time to help me here, just to recommend our "Defense Express" to them." Sirius saw Kingsley said there was no problem, so he stopped. Tangled, after all, it's only once a week, and it's only an hour or two at a time.
As Kingsley expected, the plan passed Scrimgeour's approval sooner than expected.
"Once a week, about a year, most wizards can guarantee their own personal safety." Kingsley was explaining the plan to Scrimgeour. "In terms of manpower, we can invite some retired Aurors to come back to them. Lectures, plus some people from the Order of the Phoenix can be sent."
"The Ministry of Magic can have the Aurors, or the crisis response team, on duty there."
"Very well, I need you to make a more complete plan, and you will be responsible for communicating with the Order of the Phoenix about this matter." Scrimgeour nodded. "When you go out, help me call Percy in."
After a while, Percy Weasley knocked on the door of the office and walked in,
"Minister, are you looking for me?"
"I have something for you. UU reading www.uukanshu.com" Scrimgeour handed a document to Percy: "Let's take a look at the contents first!"
"This"
Percy's eyes widened in surprise.
"This matter is kept secret for now, and I will let Fudge cooperate with you." Scrimgeour reminded: "Don't let Fudge know about this plan."
"Is it really necessary to do this?" Percy asked suspiciously.
"Although I don't know what the group of dark wizards want to do, you should have noticed that those guys are constantly making trouble for us." Scrimgeour intertwined his fingers and muttered, "I have a hunch that there is a big conspiracy waiting for us. , so, we have to be prepared.
"Maybe, we should..."
"I will, but we can't rely on them all the time." Scrimgeour gestured to Percy to leave.
