"Now, let's begin the official class." Kayson distributed pieces of gold, mithril, and obsidian. The Withering Charm, of course, would start with the charm itself.
If they started by making the Wither, not only would Withers fly around everywhere, but Kayson would also inevitably have to chase after the Little Wizards, feeding them milk.
Making the outer shell first was much more civilized. Then, they could just create the Wither inside the shell and take it with them.
In just half a class, the Little Wizards had each completed their Wither shells.
Regardless of whether they looked good or were perfectly regular, they were at least usable.
"Alright, students, the outer shell is done. As for the creation of the Wither, we'll wait until the next class. For now, I'm giving you an assignment. I personally suggest you coordinate it with your Runes assignment."
Kayson said, writing large sections of Runes symbols on the blackboard.
"These are the keys to connecting the soul sand's magic. Your Runes Professor and I have already discussed it; you will learn all of these Runes completely in his class."
"Of course, those of you who haven't enrolled in Runes can wait until the next class; I'll explain it to you again,"
Kayson said, distributing pieces of soul sand to the Little Wizards, four pieces each.
As for the assignment, it was, of course, very necessary. If it truly only required arranging soul sand into a T-shape and placing three Wither Skeleton Heads on top, that was something only Kayson could do.
It was like an Enchanting Table; Kayson only needed to hold obsidian in his left hand and a diamond in his right, clap them together in the middle, and place a book on top to create an Enchanting Table.
However, the Little Wizards needed various complex mithril fillings and Runes carvings.
The Wither was the same. If creating a Wither were truly as simple as molding clay, Kayson would never have tied the Wither grade to the final exam grade.
And now, if they wanted to learn how to create a Wither, they not only needed a large amount of Runes magic knowledge, but later, the direct contact with the Wither Skeleton Head also required a large amount of Defense Against the Dark Arts knowledge. Combining the Wither Skeleton Head with the soul sand also required a large amount of Transfiguration knowledge and magic knowledge.
And to prevent themselves from being accidentally injured by the Wither, they also needed Potions knowledge and herbology knowledge.
This small Wither, its prerequisite subjects almost covered half of Hogwarts's curriculum. It could be said to be full of sincerity, and correspondingly, full of difficulty.
If it weren't for this, Kayson would smash his head in, but he wouldn't dare to link Alchemy grades with Defense Against the Dark Arts grades.
Only if the Little Wizards who successfully created the Wither had a Defense Against the Dark Arts level that couldn't be too bad, would he make such a decision.
Otherwise, what was the difference between him and Fudge, who had lost his mind?
Back in his office, Kayson looked at the stream of replies. Most of these were replies from Wizards with Wizengamot seats in the England branch of European Alchemy.
Their contents were varied, but the meaning was always the same—[Don't panic, I'm here to help you!]
After replying to each of these letters, Kayson leaned back in his chair, comfortably closing his eyes.
As for the so-called Wizengamot trial, he wasn't too worried. The Wizengamot trial was like a modern court, but not entirely so.
However, the role of the jury was the same. For example, Wizengamot members, to a certain extent, performed the work of a jury, and the Wizengamot jury had a great deal of power.
What wasn't so similar to a modern court was that modern society had so-called suspects, with two parties arrayed in court, using various human and material evidence to refute the other's arguments, thereby achieving the goal of sending the other party in or getting their own party out smoothly.
The Wizengamot was different. The Ministry of Magic usually arrested people in the act. This wasn't because the Ministry of Magic was very humanitarian and strictly enforced the law.
It was purely because the Ministry of Magic's enforcement only intervened when something was seen. As for criminals or Dark Wizards who escaped beforehand, they basically couldn't be caught back.
Therefore, this behavior of always catching people in the act also allowed the Wizengamot to omit the step of providing evidence. Instead, it gave the offenders time for a monologue, allowing them to defend themselves.
As for this defense, of course, it wasn't about arguing that they were innocent, but about arguing the necessity of their actions. For example, 'If I don't kill him, he will kill him.' This was a highly successful argumentative tactic, and most of the time, it led to acquittal.
And Kayson's actions, even without writing to the Wizengamot Wizards to solicit votes, had a very high probability of acquittal.
Most Wizengamot Wizards were long-established, highly respected Wizards who were not afraid of the Ministry of Magic's threats or oppression. They would only follow their own hearts.
Even if he stood before the Wizengamot trial, as long as he explained that Fudge, in a moment of madness, decided to throw Dementors into Hogwarts, and that it also harmed a Hogwarts student, who was also the savior of the magical world, the famous Harry Potter.
And finally, he couldn't stand it anymore. After prior warnings, in order to protect the Little Wizards from further harm, he impulsively rushed into the Ministry of Magic and disarmed Fudge of an arm.
What kind of big deal was that?
It was purely an acquittal, even faster than the release speed of a blind collision with an interdimensional teleportation device.
"Alas… Fudge really caused me trouble." Kayson helplessly picked up his large book. This was his guide, which he had copied during this holiday for ordinary people to create Withers.
While creating Withers was as simple as molding clay for him, it wasn't the same for ordinary Little Wizards. As mentioned before, for an ordinary Little Wizards to create a Wither, it required not just comprehensive development in morality, intelligence, physical education, and aesthetics, but also proficiency in most of Hogwarts's courses.
And to copy all this knowledge, Kayson barely had a good night's sleep during the entire holiday.
"Damn Fudge… Why do I still have class this afternoon????"
The Wizengamot trial process was very fast. It basically involved reading out the charges, the Wizard's self-defense, then the Wizengamot members raising their hands to vote, and the Wizard being either acquitted or sent to Azkaban. The entire process generally did not exceed two hours.
However, the preparation process was long. Wizengamot members were often distributed across the world, serving as diplomatic envoys here and attending cutting-edge forums there. It was very possible for a preparation process to take ten days to half a month to complete.
However, this time it was much faster… seven days faster. On this day, after Kayson finished class, he received the Wizengamot summons right on time.
"Kayson, change your clothes, let's go." Dumbledore appeared behind Kayson and said.
