Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 143 Muggle Talent Recruitment Plan!

"Oh? Dudley, you know someone like that?" Dumbledore asked, quite surprised. "Is he a wizard? Or a Muggle?"

Dudley glanced at Dumbledore, who was a little excited, and calmly replied, "I don't know any of them, not a single one."

"what?!"

Dumbledore was dumbfounded. What was he talking about with someone he didn't even know? Was this just a joke?

Dudley saw through the unspoken message in Old Deng's expression and, without keeping him in suspense, continued:

Just because you don't know them now doesn't mean you won't know them in the future. You can always send someone to look for them!

We can't count on the few thousand people in the British wizarding community, but do you know how many Muggles there are in Britain right now?

More than 57.4 million people!

With so many people, can't we find dozens or even hundreds of kind, courageous, experienced, knowledgeable, and intelligent professionals?

"Dozens or even hundreds of people?!" Dumbledore was shocked once again. "Is it necessary to find so many people to tutor Professor Binns?"

"Professor Binns is a ghost, so of course he doesn't need so many teachers, but Hogwarts has more than just Professor Binns as a professor!"

We need to find outstanding, fair, objective, and insightful historians for Professor Binns, teach him how to correctly use historical facts, and guide students to learn from history and form correct ideological understanding.

We need to find experts in genetics to help you professors break free from the shackles of pure-blood supremacy in theory, so that you can then change students' perceptions of bloodline and gradually eliminate bloodline discrimination in schools.

We need to find people who are proficient in sociology, social psychology, child psychology, and educational psychology.

We will teach you what a positive and healthy society should be like, how to influence students' cognition from a psychological perspective, how to better understand students' hearts, and how to guide students to better accept and identify with your teaching content.

Instead of hypnotic education like Professor Binns, dogmatic cramming like Professor Flitwick, or purely oppressive education like Snape!

Repressive education is not the kind of education Snape used. This method of education must be used in moderation and is more suitable for children who are extremely arrogant and conceited.

Like Snape, who, regardless of a student's personality, only knew how to motivate them through verbal belittling and mild physical punishment, he could easily make some students feel inferior and withdrawn, unable to hold their heads high for the rest of their lives.

Okay, we've gotten a little off-topic.

In short, the goal is to find capable assistants within the Muggle community who can help us advance ideological education reform. First, we need to arm the minds of you professors, and then you can go and reform the students of Hogwarts.

After listening to Dudley's story, Dumbledore fell into deep thought, and after a moment, he spoke with some hesitation:

"Dali, I understand what you mean. But there are some details..."

"If you have a problem, just say so, and we'll figure out a solution together," Dudley urged Dumbledore when he saw him hesitating.

"Then I'll tell you."

Dumbledore quickened his pace slightly, “Bringing Muggles to Hogwarts is, after all, a direct violation of the Secrets Act. Even if I were to guarantee that it would pass the Ministry of Magic’s scrutiny, it would inevitably cause public opinion problems in the wizarding world.”

With so many people involved, it's impossible to completely cover up the news.

"I can use Little Pettigrew's blood, along with some other materials, to craft an amulet that can ward off Muggle expulsion spells."

When suitable Muggle talents are brought in, give each of them one to wear, and tell everyone they are Squibs who grew up in the Muggle world!

Dali was well-prepared and solved the first question in seconds.

"So, how many new courses will Hogwarts be offering, and who will be the professors? Will they be chosen from among these Muggle talents, or will they be recruited from among other outstanding wizards?" Dumbledore asked again.

"I won't count the courses I'm planning to offer. You can just offer a new course called 'Great Wizard Cognition Enhancement Course.' It sounds catchy, and make it a required course. You'll be the professor for this course!"

Without hesitation, Dali solved the second question in a flash.

"I?!"

Dumbledore couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. He had been the headmaster for many years and hadn't taught for a very long time. His laziness had become a habit.

"Why are you so surprised, Dumbledore? Don't forget, this is a crucial course concerning the thinking and understanding of Hogwarts students, and even the future of the wizarding world. In some ways, it's more important than any other course."

You're comfortable letting other people teach such an important lesson?

Are you sure that if someone else were to teach this course, the students at Hogwarts would be convinced? Especially those pure-blooded Slytherin students and those hotheads from Gryffindor.

You must learn all the knowledge and skills from Muggle talents, and then teach them to the students of Hogwarts according to your understanding.

You can select the best of those Muggle talents and have them serve as teaching assistants for this course, as well as for the courses on the history of magic and Muggle studies.

The prevailing mindset in the magical world largely depends on you to change it; you must take the lead! Professor Binns and Professor Kareddy Bubbage of the Muggle Studies Department can assist you after learning the new ideas.

Dudley fully expressed his thoughts, causing Dumbledore to fall into deep thought once again.

"Dali, can't you teach this new course? You seem to have mastered all those Muggle knowledge and ideas you mentioned. If you teach it, we won't need to hire so many others..."

After thinking for a while, Dumbledore actually wanted to put the burden on Dali's shoulders.

Dali couldn't hold back any longer. Before Old Deng could finish speaking, he raised his voice and abruptly interrupted him:

"Are you crazy? Are you insane? I'm only an eleven-year-old kid!"

Besides, I have some knowledge of those things, but if you ask me to teach them, aren't you afraid that the future magical world will be full of lawless outlaws?

Many things in this world are easier said than done, and I am well aware of this.

I may be good at talking big and giving advice, but my thoughts and personality are not suited for a proper career in ideological education.

When I have free time, I teach spells and alchemy to students with good character, guiding them to develop their talents and create new spells. That's the limit of what I can do.

My idea is that you lead the professors in providing positive guidance and educating the students, while I will play the role of a strict motivator, spurring the students on.

With one side on the positive side and the other on the negative side, and a clear division of labor, we will jointly promote the Hogwarts educational reform.

This ideological reform is only the first step. Once we've largely eliminated racial discrimination and school rivalry, we'll then need to improve the overall skill level of Hogwarts students, allowing the magical world to innovate and create even greater glories!
