Five minutes later, Professor Quirrell arrived, carrying four steaming mugs of pumpkin juice with milky foam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They drank the pumpkin juice, warming themselves, and clearly heard voices of witches and wizards outside the shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s surprising—usually by this time, the Fairy Workshop has already shut off its lights.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Said a witch who lived in Diagon Alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The acting shopkeeper is as punctual as a clock. Aside from that one gentleman, I can’t imagine any reason why this shopkeeper would keep his lights on…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her husband added, full of curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their words, and thinking of the shop’s exorbitant prices and the famous witches and wizards coming and going, Hermione realized that here, Wizard Sean was deeply respected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she turned back, Master Scamander, who had been smiling all along, spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Regarding the definition of ‘human’ versus ‘animal’… earlier attempts to classify which magical creatures qualified as ‘animals’ were extremely crude.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Scamander was happy to educate young witches and wizards on the history of magical creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they drank pumpkin juice, ate the extra pumpkin pies, roasted beef, roasted chicks, pork chops, and lamb chops on the table, all while listening to Mr. Scamander’s explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Notably, the Fairy Workshop had two wireless radios, and now the faint broadcasts from both the Muggle and magical worlds mingled with Mr. Scamander’s resonant voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Burdock Malton, the fourteenth-century Head of the Wizengamot, decreed that any magical creature walking on two legs would henceforth be granted ‘human’ status, while all others remained classified as ‘animals.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cordially summoned all ‘humans’ to a summit meeting to meet with wizards and discuss new magical laws—but to his utter dismay, he realized his judgment was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meeting hall was packed with goblins, who had brought countless two-legged creatures—anything they could find.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bathilda Bagshot wrote in her book, A History of Magic:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the harsh cries of the Diricawl, the mournful hoots of the Bowtruckle, and the shrill, unceasing song of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack, little could be heard. As wizards tried to consult their documents, countless house-elves and fairies circled above them, giggling and chattering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dozen trolls began swinging their short clubs to smash the hall apart, while banshees slid through the chamber, hunting for children to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chairman rose to preside over the meeting, but slipped on a pile of Puffskein droppings and cursed his way out of the hall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville let out a series of low gasps—he seemed thoroughly frightened by this horrific scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wizard Sean quietly recorded these details in his Magical Creatures notebook, recalling the history of magic and pondering the goblins’ longstanding role in stoking conflict among wizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As we see, merely possessing two legs does not guarantee a magical creature will care about, or even be capable of participating in, wizarding government affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Filled with bitterness, Malton abandoned all further attempts to include non-wizard beings in the Wizengamot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Said Mr. Scamander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did this mark the first sign of tension between goblins and wizards?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I recall that three centuries later, goblins incited a group to riot at the Ministry over dissatisfaction with Quidditch reforms.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean mused aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perhaps, perhaps not. The history of magical creatures tells me wizards were not always the rulers of the magical world—there are many epics we have yet to uncover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether wizard magic and magical creature magic once shared a common origin remains an unresolved question in magical history.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Scamander explained slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean sat motionless, as if fully ensnared by the vastness of magical history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let us move the hands of time forward again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, Malton’s successor, Lady Elfrida Clagg, attempted to redefine ‘human,’ hoping to forge closer ties with other magical beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She declared that a ‘human’ was any creature capable of speaking the human language. Thus, all beings whose speech the Wizengamot members could understand were invited to the next meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem arose again. The trolls, taught a few simple phrases by goblins, prepared to wreck the hall as before. The kneazles chased each other, darting wildly around the legs of the chairs, biting anyone’s ankles they could reach.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Scamander continued, and Hermione frowned deeply, as if pondering how to solve this dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, how do we distinguish human from animal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what, exactly, made wizards the masters of the magical world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was knowledge and wisdom that allowed wizards to forge an entirely new path in magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there remains any true difference between wizards and magical creatures, it is only the inheritance of wisdom across generations.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean, who had once stood on the shoulders of giants, seemed to grasp something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So the true war between wizards and goblins arose—not with dragons or giants, but because this was a clash of two intelligent species, a fight to the death.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean’s gaze burned intensely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly understood: it was wisdom that had built the vastness of wizarding magic, not merely a subject to be studied and observed like magical creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled the development of science—and realized it had paralleled the evolution of magic in the realm of wisdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he naturally thought of the boundary between emotion and reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A novel explanation… and a reasonable one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Newt fell silent for a moment, then looked at the young witches and wizards with a dawning, almost alarmed expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he continued:\u003C\u002Fp>",1075,"2026-06-19T10:00:41.888Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","bb0f2be5d919c4c707c442788b1af96e3f24b2163b468fc3c692e0907c2e0a34","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-372","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-370",526,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-learning-panel-cover.jpg"]
