Chapter 569 There Is No Need to Be Cruel, This Is Just the Dominance of the Winner over the Loser!

"It's difficult ma'am!" Dobby squeaked and shook his head, then continued proudly. "Only a great wizard like Lord Hals would be willing to pay us!"

"This is not necessarily the case, Dobby! I believe that as long as we actively speak out, more people will be willing to agree with this concept!" Hermione said firmly. She believed that today's wizards' abuse of house elves is completely a remnant of feudalism. brought about old ideas.

Then the little witch curiously asked Dobby how much salary he got every month and how many days off he had?

Dobby was so excited that he wanted to answer, so as to show the greatness of his master, but when he spoke, he remembered that Ivan had ordered him not to disclose the details of his salary to others, so he drooped his ears and spoke vaguely.

"Mr. Hals gave Dobby a lot of money and holidays. Oh my god, sir, he is such a noble man!"

"Okay, stop praising me and get off!" Ivan didn't dare to let Hermione ask too many questions to avoid revealing her secrets, so he quickly waved Dobby away.

Hermione glanced at Ivan suspiciously, but didn't say anything.

In her opinion, since Dobby was so grateful, the salary given by Ivan must be quite high, perhaps a little lower than that of a normal wizard.

"Why did you suddenly think of liberating the house elves? Hermione?" Ivan asked curiously, he had always been puzzled by this.

"why not?"

The little witch looked at Ivan very seriously and spoke eloquently. "House elves have put in so much effort for their masters, not only doing all the housework, but also ensuring absolute loyalty and obeying their master's orders, but what have they gained in return for their efforts?"

"What I got in return was discrimination and wanton beatings! I even read in the book that when the mysterious man was at the peak of his power, some wizards treated house elves as pests!"

Having said this, the little witch was extremely angry. She had contacted Kreacher and Winky and asked about their lives.

In her opinion, house elves are a hard-working and loyal group, and they can become wizards' family partners, rather than slaves who can be beaten and scolded!

Listening to Hermione's angry words, Ivan was not moved at all, and he spoke in a calm tone.

"Since you have read the book, you should know the origin of house elves and wizards. They are creatures created by wizards and must serve wizards from generation to generation. This is the meaning of their lives."

"Do you really think so? Wizards created house elves? They are obviously so similar to goblins!" Hermione retorted, paused, and then guessed.

"Perhaps some wizards deliberately tampered with history in order to enslave them, so that the house elves will sink like this forever!"

"And they are intelligent creatures like us and can think, so they shouldn't be treated like this!" Hermione finally added.

Ivan looked at Hermione in surprise. He didn't expect that the little witch would question the contents of the book one day.

"What's wrong? Is there anything I said wrong?" Seeing that Ivan didn't reply for a long time, Hermione seemed a little uncomfortable. She nervously stabbed a piece of cake in front of her with a fork, and the cream spilled on the table.

"No, it's nothing, I'm just surprised that you could think of this!" Ivan laughed.

He had read the book "Origin of Blood", so of course he knew what was going on.

The group of house elves is indeed not a creation of wizards, but a magical creature enslaved by wizards in the process of controlling the magical world.

After all, wizards are not powerful enough to create a group of magical creatures with human-like intelligence and the ability to cast spells.

That is already the category of God!

Ivan felt that this might be the reason why wizards as a group were on guard against house elves and had been committed to cultivating servility for thousands of years.

However, there is nothing wrong with the actions of those wizard seniors in Ivan's opinion.

Back then, wizards didn't do well in the magic world, as they do now. The right to speak they have now is all forced upon them!

Centaurs, goblins, mermaids, all magical creatures living in the magical world need to be controlled by wizards, including house elves of course!

This is the final winner's domination over the loser in the cruel competition for survival!

Just like the human ancestors in ancient times expelled ligers and domesticated cattle and sheep, it's just that house elves are highly intelligent, so they appear even more cruel!

It’s not that there are no problems.

Except for Hogwarts, most house elves are monopolized by pure-blood families and have become their private property. Civilian wizards cannot enjoy this convenience at all.

House elves have not played their due role at all, and their spellcasting abilities have been severely restricted. Even because of the arrogance of pure-blood wizards, the overall number of house elves has become smaller and smaller.

Despite thinking this, Ivan was a little embarrassed when he opened his mouth and didn't know how to persuade Hermione.

Tell her directly that this world is actually very cruel. The law of survival of the race is the law of the jungle. Once the house elves are completely liberated, will they compete with wizards for rights?

It's strange that Hermione can understand it!

Ivan knew very well that teenagers are the age when little devils have a strong sense of compassion and justice. Without being severely beaten by society, they usually think that they can correct those injustices by themselves.

It was just like when he was in primary school in his previous life. After a few environmental protection classes, he became completely distracted. He dared to run up to a lumberjack and scold him, "Big trees are so important, why do we need to cut them down?"

Now that I think about it, I'm really glad I didn't get beaten.

Hermione didn't know what Ivan was thinking, and thought that Ivan agreed with her idea, so she happily told Ivan about her follow-up plan.

"I plan to establish an association for the promotion of house elves' rights, starting from Hogwarts, to persuade Professor Dumbledore to improve the treatment of house elves!" Hermione said.

"I think you'd better not do this. Professor Dumbledore can't agree!" Ivan persuaded with a headache.

"Why?" Hermione asked eagerly.

"There are more than a hundred elves in Hogwarts. Even based on the minimum wage, it is a large monthly expense. Even if Professor Dumbledore does not discriminate against house elves, the board of directors will not agree. Appropriated funds." Ivan explained.

If calculated based on Filch's salary, Hogwarts would have to spend an additional 70,000 to 80,000 gold galleons every year!

As the principal, Dumbledore is over a hundred years old this year. His health has not been very good recently and he cannot bear this shock!

(PS: After spending so much space writing about house elves, I will definitely use it in the future, and it is not just the word count (the entire fourth volume progresses slowly because there are more foreshadowings). In addition, for special reasons, I will update today.)
