I just became the Pirate King, and you're telling me I also time-traveled at the same time.

Chapter 68 Forbidden Book Zone

Having received exam-oriented education since childhood, Chu Yang is good at breaking down problems into easily understandable parts and then teaching them to his classmates.

Compared to the college entrance exam in my previous life, the difficulty of the Hogwarts exams is not even as good as a primary school student's final exam.

In terms of problem-solving, Dumbledore was not as professional as Chu Yang.

If conditions permit, Chu Yang even wants to create a set of "Five-Year Simulation and Three-Year College Entrance Examination" so that the young wizards can experience the pain he went through back then.

It was precisely because Chu Yang frequently tutored his classmates that the overall academic performance of this year's Hogwarts freshmen was higher than that of previous years.

Teachers are naturally happy when their students get good grades, so Chu Yang's image is getting better and better in the eyes of the teachers.

Most of the students and teachers liked Chu Yang, but because of this, Dumbledore suddenly began to worry.

The more outstanding Chu Yang was, the more Voldemort could see in him. But to his relief, Chu Yang showed great disdain for the theory of bloodline.

Over the past two months, Dumbledore has occasionally chatted with Chu Yang when he has nothing else to do.

The boy's occasional surprising remarks.

It often gives Dumbledore some kind of enlightenment, making him forget his current age.

Dumbledore could often tell from Chu Yang's usual remarks that he deeply abhorred the corruption and stubbornness of the wizarding world, especially regarding the concepts of "bloodline" and "family."

There was such a discussion in the principal's office once.

Chu Yang asked, "Was the world's first wizard a great man?"

Dumbledore answered without hesitation, "Of course!"

Chu Yang then asked, "So, do you think he's pure-blood or Muggle-born?"

Since he was the first wizard in the world, there must have been no wizards before him. Dumbledore instinctively wanted to answer, but fell silent before he could speak.

Chu Yang said leisurely, "All the glory of pure-blood families originated from Muggles. This conclusion can even be extended to the entire wizarding community. The magical world is an extension of the non-magical world, like a thick branch of a tree."

"If the two are completely separated, even the thickest branches will wither. This shows that the magical world, once separated from the non-magical world, is nothing more than a tree without soil."

"In fact, compared to the creativity displayed by the non-magical world, the magical world has begun to decline, and you should be aware of this."

Dumbledore took off his glasses, wearily rubbing the bridge of his nose. The origins of wizards that Chu Yang was talking about were a very sensitive issue throughout the entire magical world.

Because that is indeed an indisputable fact.

As for the flourishing of the non-magical world, Dumbledore naturally took notice, especially the magical creations that could be driven without any magic, which often made the centenarian marvel at the wisdom of the Muggles.

Chu Yang hadn't stopped his taunts, and said contemptuously, "The title 'pure-blood wizard' is like the medieval nobility—it's full of decay, like the dregs of history."

"In 20th-century Britain, no one regarded the nobility as representatives of power; even the Queen was merely a figurehead."

"Today's Muggles may grow into the seeds of tomorrow's pure-blood families because of their outstanding talents, and today's pure-blood families may gradually become members of the Muggle community because of their mediocrity."

To sum it up with an old Eastern proverb, "Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?"

Dumbledore tapped the table and chuckled helplessly, "Although I've learned many languages, most of them only get me to the point of being able to understand books. This old proverb..."

"Please forgive my rudeness." Chu Yang bowed slightly and smiled, then translated the meaning of the proverb.

After hearing this, Dumbledore looked quite moved.

"In this era, if wizards cannot set aside their sectarian prejudices and boldly innovate to explore the future, they will sooner or later be submerged by the torrent of history."

The conversation was stopped at this point by Dumbledore, and then Chu Yang left the headmaster's office.

At this point... Dumbledore's worries that Chu Yang would become the next Dark Lord were completely dispelled.

But new worries welled up in Dumbledore's mind.

Chu Yang will indeed not become the Dark Lord, but his remarks have revealed much dissatisfaction with the magical world. Dumbledore has no idea what he will do as a result once he grows up.

"Innovation, change, the future..."

Dumbledore murmured these words repeatedly, and finally fell into an endless silence.

On Halloween, Chu Yang, who had no classes, got up very early and was the first student to enter the library.

This highly unusual scene left Ms. Pins, the administrator, looking at him with a face full of surprise.

"Mr. Chu Yang, today is Halloween. Aren't you planning to spend it with your friends?"

In all her years as a librarian, this was the first time Mrs. Pince had ever seen students come to the library to study on Halloween.

Chu Yang replied, "I plan to read for a while in the morning and then go out at noon. Thank you for your concern, Mrs. Pince."

"They all say you're a genius, but perhaps only I see your diligence," Mrs. Pince said indignantly. "You're the most diligent student I've ever seen!"

"Thank you." Chu Yang smiled shyly, then took out a magical license with Dumbledore's signature on it. "This license was given to me by Headmaster Dumbledore. I hope to read some books in the forbidden section."

"It really is Dumbledore's signature!" Mrs. Pince glanced at Chu Yang in surprise.

Chu Yang was certain that if he borrowed too many books related to dark magic, or books with dangerous content, Dumbledore, who was secretly observing, would decisively stop him from seizing the opportunity he had worked so hard to obtain.

To be on the safe side, Chu Yang planned to only read some spells that he couldn't access at this stage, but which weren't particularly dangerous.

For example, spells with strong practical applications such as Apparition or Unseen Stretch.

This is also a spell that Chu Yang from other worlds currently needs.

In terms of combat, spells have limited effectiveness because the enemies Chu Yang faces in other worlds are often physically exceptional, and the casting animation of spells is too long, easily becoming an opening.

In terms of lethality, among the three unforgivable curses, only the Killing Curse can be considered a truly offensive curse. Being cursed by it results in instant death, which is indeed very powerful, and attacks on the soul level are difficult to avoid.

But the prerequisite is that you have to hit the target...

The Cruciatus Curse is more suitable for torturing enemies; it is a terrible form of punishment. However, there are many ruthless individuals in the Naruto and One Piece worlds who can withstand this kind of pain. The Soul Reaper Curse is in a similar situation.

After careful consideration, Chu Yang from the magical world clearly defined his role—to become a support staff member who could assist "himself" in various worlds.

Learning and trying to create more practical and powerful spells will be Chu Yang's main goal in the future.
