HP: I'm not going to rule the wizarding world

Besides, although Ariana is completely different from Tom in interacting with others and the possibility of her becoming the Dark Lord is not high, what if she is led astray by someone with bad intentions?

It is better to keep her in Hogwarts and let the professors of the school guide her. Maybe Hogwarts can produce another well-known strong person.

Of course, this strong man cannot cause destruction everywhere like Tom.

Ariana understood what Dumbledore meant, and she asked bluntly, "Mr. Headmaster, after all, you don't want me to drop out of school, right?"

"That's what I meant, but what I just said is also true. If you don't believe me, you can ask Draco." Dumbledore said without any guilt.

Draco had no idea how the Ministry of Magic went about this process, but when he saw Dumbledore wink at him, he immediately realized that the chance to keep Ariana was in his hands, and the headmaster had handed it over to him.

"The Ministry of Magic is very inefficient." He tried to keep his voice steady.

Draco was not lying. He had been to the Ministry of Magic with his father and had seen how efficient the work was there. Those people worked as well as sloths.

And he really didn't want Ariana to leave Hogwarts, so he could only secretly apologize to her in his heart.

Generally, wizards only use one wand in their entire lives. In addition to the fact that the wand is very durable, there is also the factor of adaptability, because only the first wand is the most suitable for them.

Mr. Ollivander mentioned this when Ariana went to buy a wand.

And when she got the wand, she felt as if the missing part of her unhealthy heart in her previous life was filled.

Especially after she started using it, this feeling became particularly strong. She didn't want to experience the feeling of dying young like in her previous life.

Chapter 19 Stupid Little Monster

Seeing that Ariana's attitude had completely softened, Dumbledore knew that his persuasion was about to succeed, so he continued to increase his pressure.

"I believe that after you accepted the invitation to enter Hogwarts, you must have made arrangements for asset management and will be away for 7 years, so it won't have much impact on you staying to complete your studies, right?" Dumbledore looked at Ariana with a loving face.

Even though Professor McGonagall did not tell Ariana at the time that electrical appliances were not allowed in Hogwarts, since she agreed to enroll, she was prepared to leave London for seven years.

Her problem now is just that it is inconvenient to contact her and she cannot handle her work quickly.

But Hogwarts has two holidays a year, and Ariana can handle these family affairs during the holidays.

"Okay, I admit I don't want to lose it." Ariana gripped the lightning-struck wooden wand tightly, as if she were clutching her own heart.

In fact, she could see that Draco was not telling the truth, but she did not forget that the 100-year-old man in front of her was the backbone of the wizarding world.

Now that people are so opposed to her dropping out of school, what if they contact the Ministry of Magic and really use her lightning-struck wooden wand as a threat? What can she do to them?

This wasn't the Muggle world. She didn't quite understand the legal process, nor did she know how many government departments operated. How would she defend her rights then?

But Ariana was very upset about accepting other people's arrangements, so she directed her anger at Snape.

"I made two requests to Professor McGonagall before. One was that the accommodation environment needed to be improved, which the school has achieved. What about the other one?" She looked straight at Snape.

Dumbledore knew, of course, that Ariana was venting her dissatisfaction. Seeing that she had set her sights on Snape, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

If it were someone else, Dumbledore might be able to force them to change their teaching methods, but he was helpless against Snape.

Snape was willing to betray Voldemort, and his only request was to save Lily Evans' life, but he failed to fulfill his promise in the end and always felt guilty towards Snape.

Moreover, Harry had just entered Hogwarts this year, and Voldemort's spies also arrived with him. He really needed Snape to protect Harry at all times.

Feeling guilty and needing help from others, Dumbledore didn't have the nerve to force them to change their teaching methods.

So he answered Ariana evasively, "Didn't I promise you that I would talk to Professor Quirrell? I believe he will recover soon, and by then you will be impressed by his teaching skills."

Ariana could tell that Dumbledore wanted to ignore Snape's question, and she didn't want to oblige him.

"Besides Professor Quirrell, there's also Professor Snape," she asked unwillingly.

Snape could no longer bear it. If it weren't for Dumbledore's warning look, he would have used a spell on Ariana long ago.

He looked at Ariana mockingly and sneered, "Foolish little troll, don't think you can do anything just because you've learned a few black magic spells. Just now in the potion classroom, I didn't fight you seriously because I was afraid of wasting my own herbs."

The implication is that if you had some self-awareness, if I really wanted to do something to you, you would have become a corpse by now.

Ariana disagreed with this. In the previous duel, he showed no mercy. A professor actually had the nerve to use black magic on a first-year student like him.

"You said you didn't fight me seriously, but wasn't that black magic you used at the end? Don't think I don't know that black magic has no counter-spell. If I hadn't dodged it, my life would be in danger now." Ariana immediately mocked back.

Of course Snape used dark magic, but he controlled the strength. Ariana might be injured, but she would definitely not die.

Faced with Ariana's ridicule, his rationality was almost driven away again.

"Silly little troll, not all dark magic has counter-spells. Don't think you know everything just because you're a genius. In the magical world, you're still a blank slate."

Snape's voice rose eight degrees, which caused the previous headmasters on the wall to be frightened.

Ariana was not affected by him. She looked at Dumbledore and complained fiercely, "Headmaster, if Professor Snape keeps verbally abusing me and making personal attacks like this, I will not want this wand anymore and I will be expelled immediately."

Although she was reluctant to lose the wand which was like her heart, her life would not be threatened if she lost it. To Ariana, nothing was more important than her own life.

Dumbledore felt a little tired when he heard Ariana mention dropping out of school again, but since McGonagall had pushed all the problems to him, he had to deal with it no matter how troublesome it was.

"Ariana, don't talk about dropping out so easily. The opportunity for magical education is very precious. I admit that Professor Snape's attitude is a bit harsh, but the way you treat the professor is also problematic, right?" Dumbledore's tone was a little harsh.

Ariana was not afraid at all. She glared at Snape and continued to accuse him, "Do you want me to apologize to him? Absolutely not. Look at him, he keeps calling me a stupid little troll."

Snape looked at Ariana mockingly and scolded, "Aren't you stupid enough? I've never heard of a little wizard daring to treat his headmaster like this."

When he was in school, he was very respectful to his dean.

Ariana was completely different from him. In her previous life, she had a heart disease, and it was a very serious one. Even as an orphan, no one had ever yelled at her.

She was extremely smart since she was a child. The aunts in the orphanage liked her very much. By the age of 7, she was financially independent and everyone who came into contact with her complimented her.

It can be said that my life has been smooth sailing for the past two lifetimes.

Of course Ariana couldn't adapt to the sudden contact with someone like Snape who treated her so badly.

And she always firmly believed that the reason why she was so irritable was all caused by Snape.

"Just because no one has told you, you have never realized your problem. Can you answer the questions I asked the headmaster before? In your 10 years in office, you have taught several excellent students in Potions." Ariana hit Professor Snape's sore spot.

"This is not your concern." Snape, furious, tried to get closer to Ariana again.

"You can't answer that, right?" Ariana was not to be outdone, and was about to confront him directly with her wand in hand.

Seeing this, Dumbledore quickly interrupted again, "Ariana, since you've given up on dropping out, why not enjoy this wonderful weekend? I have a serious talk with Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall soon, and the content is not suitable for you and Draco to know."

Before Ariana could vent her dissatisfaction, the clever Draco had already received the principal's signal and pulled Ariana out of the principal's office.

After the two little devils left, Dumbledore raised his hand and touched his forehead, and found that he was not sweating. He smiled awkwardly at his two colleagues.

"Am I getting old, or are all the young wizards nowadays so difficult to deal with?" he said with a wry smile.

Without Ariana present, Snape became much more normal. He sneered and said sarcastically, "Maybe it's both."

Dumbledore, who is over 100 years old, is of course old. This year, not only is Harry Potter enrolled, but there is also the thorny Ariana. Who can say that young wizards nowadays are not difficult to deal with?

Of course, Ariana didn't know about the conversation in the office after she left, but she was still upset about what happened.

"You shouldn't have dragged me out. Maybe if I had insisted a little longer, the headmaster would have agreed to pressure Professor Snape to change his teaching methods. Didn't he also agree to talk to Professor Quirrell?" Ariana was very dissatisfied with Draco's behavior.

"I think we've reached this point. If you continue to argue, you'll probably have to fight Professor Snape again," Draco reminded her.

Ariana didn't care and said angrily, "Go ahead and hit me, but he won't dare to do anything to me."

She was still influenced by the thinking of the Muggle world and felt that the teachers at school could not do anything to the students?

Seeing that Ariana still didn't understand what he meant, Draco could only speak more deeply.

"Don't you value your life? If they don't follow the rules and do something to you, it will be too late to regret it."

Ariana then remembered that Snape really dared to fight with her. It seemed that she had to adapt to the gap between the Muggle world and the magical world as soon as possible.

"Well, my plan to drop out of school is completely out of the question. I have to find a way to solve the problem of not being able to use electrical appliances at Hogwarts. Otherwise, my assets will shrink too much, and I'll be heartbroken."

Not only was her immigration plan on hold, but her plan to drop out of school was also out of the question. Ariana was extremely depressed.

Now is the golden period of development. If you miss one day, you may miss 100 million.

"Let's go to the library." Ariana suddenly said to Draco.

Ever since discovering the Room of Requirement, Ariana hadn't been to the library again, and Draco, who was with her, naturally didn't go either.

"What are you doing in the library?" Draco looked at her puzzled.

Ariana replied as a matter of course, "Electrical appliances can't be used at Hogwarts. It's probably a magnetic field issue. There's a scientific solution to this problem, but I don't have any relevant books to verify it. I can only wait until I get home for Christmas. But I can't just sit there and wait now."

Although Draco didn't know what the scientific method was, when he heard Ariana say that the books she wanted to read after the holidays were definitely from the Muggle world.

So he asked in confusion: "Since this question requires Muggle books, why go to the library? There definitely aren't any science books like the ones you want to read there."

As a good friend, Ariana felt it was her obligation to let Draco know some common sense of the Muggle world, otherwise there would definitely be communication problems between them.

"Wizards and Muggles are both human beings. There are many things in common between the two. For example, potions. Muggles have chemical potions. There are many things in common. The same is true for science. I think the problem of magnetic fields can be solved in alchemy." She explained.

After listening to Ariana's explanation, Draco nodded, but then he remembered another situation.

"Then you should have borrowed a book from Dumbledore. Haven't you read all the history books? Don't you know that he was good friends with Nicolas Flamel, the originator of alchemy?"

Of course Ariana knew this information.

"I don't have any basic knowledge of alchemy right now. I'll go to the library and borrow some basic introductory books first. I'll go back to him later to borrow some books."

Draco was still excited about Ariana staying in Hogwarts, and he was still a little dazed by his behavior in the office just now, so he was swept up and followed her to the library.

But as soon as they reached the fourth floor, they were blocked by Hermione.

"Colin, I want to talk to you alone."

Chapter 20 Everyone has different views

When they first met, Ariana warned Hermione that if she didn't change her attitude, she wouldn't have any friends even in a new environment.

As Ariana expected, even though Slytherin and Gryffindor had no contact, she still heard about Hermione's situation in Gryffindor.

It's not just that Hermione loves to show off, she also likes to meddle in other people's affairs. Gryffindor is a group of lively and active little wizards, it would be strange if she wasn't disliked.

Ariana had never become friends with her before she met other people of the same kind, let alone now that she was at Hogwarts and met classmates with similar personalities.

"I don't think there's anything to talk about between us," Ariana said coldly.

They ended up in a bad mood last time, and they only had contact for more than ten minutes. What is there to talk about between them?

Hermione has indeed been having a very bad time recently. She performs well in class and is willing to help others. She really doesn't understand why she is hated by all her classmates.

Then she remembered the first person who hated her, Ariana. They were both young wizards of Muggle origin, and Ariana joined the very exclusive Slytherin.

But after a week of observation, she found that Ariana was doing very well in Slytherin.

Not to mention that Malfoy from the magic family is inseparable from her all the time, even the mean Pansy can get along with her peacefully.

Hermione really couldn't understand how Ariana did it. She came to Ariana to ask her how to get along well with her classmates.

Unfortunately, Hermione obviously had not reflected on her own problems. Seeing Ariana's cold attitude and a hint of disgust in her tone, the anger in her heart immediately erupted, and then she pointed at Draco and complained about Ariana.

"Malfoy is such a disgusting person, but you can become his close friend. Am I worse than him? He doesn't even want to talk to me alone for a few minutes?" Hermione's eyes were red with anger.

Draco had a bad temper to begin with, and when he heard Hermione say that to him, he immediately exploded.

"Dirty Mudblood, who do you hate?" He drew his wand.

Although Ariana was not happy that Draco said "Mudblood", compared to Hermione, she would of course stand on Draco's side.

"You've made my friend angry. Go back to Gryffindor right now before I lose my temper." She pressed down Draco's wand.

It is normal for everyone to have different values ​​and disagreements, but there is no need to resort to magic wands.

But she completely forgot that she had just had a fight with Snape in the Potions classroom. To be more specific, the two of them had a fight because of their different values.

When Hermione heard Draco say this, tears immediately fell, but she didn't look at Draco, but questioned Ariana.

"I know what 'Mudblood' means. You are a Muggle-born wizard like me, yet you are not angry when he says that."

Ariana thought Hermione was inexplicable. She had a different perspective on closeness. Didn't she know that? If I didn't help Draco, would I help you?

She shrugged and said calmly, "I do live in a Muggle community, but that doesn't mean I'm a Muggle-born little wizard. Draco has confirmed that both my parents are wizards."

"How is this possible?" Hermione looked at her in shock. They were both brought to Diagon Alley by Professor McGonagall.

Before Ariana could object, Draco yelled at Hermione, "How is that impossible? Ariana is so smart and has such a high talent for magic, how could she be a Muggle-born?"

Draco looked at Hermione with disgust.

Hermione completely disagreed with this. She retorted, "She's very smart and has a high magical talent. Does that mean she must be a pure-blood wizard? You don't score as high as I do in class, but I'm a little Muggle-born wizard, and you're a pure-blood wizard, so bloodline doesn't prove anything."

Ariana didn't want to waste time, so she asked her straight to the point: "What exactly do you want from me? Draco knows everything about me. If you want to tell me, tell me. If you don't want to tell me, get out of the way."
