Beyond Borders

"In the first place, regarding the identity of my half-blood, I hope you can keep it a secret."

Elena raised her index finger and looked at Dumbledore seriously, with a very solemn tone.

The specific origin of magic is too ancient to be verified. The concept of magic has existed since the beginning of human activities, but there is no exact evidence of when exactly humans started to attempt to learn and master this supernatural power.

If we exclude the mysterious legend from the east, the first recorded instance in magical history is around 2600 B.C., with the Egyptian pharaohs and their wizards. Setting aside ancient Egypt and Babylon, the oldest record in the world of magic is the Ollivander family, who began crafting wands in 382 B.C.

Although she has always been extremely skeptical about it, as it always reminds her of the ancient stores known as millennial ancestors in all the streets and alleys of her past life.

The non-magical European world began to show signs of recorded magic, but it was not until four years B.C., after the birth of Jesus, that literature formed. In terms of the British region, it was not until around 500 A.D. that the first legendary wizard, Merlin, can be traced.

In any case, those magical creatures existed many years before the foundation of human civilization. To be precise, if the human wizard is also reduced to a magical creature, human magic is not too powerful.

It should be noted that, for example, house-elves can manipulate strong magical powers without wands and are relatively weak among magical creatures. Once the human wizard is freed from the magic wand, their strength will be considerably diminished, and the core of the magic wand comes without exception from a part of the magical creature's body.

The facts have shown that most half-blood wizards are indeed much stronger than normal wizards. For example, Hagrid's incredible magical resilience and his strange power stem from his giant mother. Fleur Delacour's outstanding magical talent also has a very important connection to her grandmother.

However, human attitudes towards half-blood wizards (specifically, semi-magical creatures) have always been in an uncomfortable state: fear, revulsion, distrust, and hidden envy… as can be seen in the original book, both Fleur and Hagrid, among the young wizards of the same age, are excluded in different ways.

Elena does not want to be treated like animals in a zoo every day in the future; that kind of treatment can only be enjoyed by the great "Boy Who Lived."

"If this is not guaranteed, I'd rather not eat... Um..." The little silver-haired Lori seemed to have accidentally bitten her tongue, whimpering, and vaguely said, "I would rather not learn magic... and never come to this local school."

"On this point, I can assure you that no one at the school, except for me and Professor McGonagall, will know your identity. In fact, before this, there have been many people like you at Hogwarts. Students, you don't have to worry."

Dumbledore nodded and agreed without hesitation.

He originally thought the girl would make some strange and strict requirements. To hide the identity of the half-blood Meiwa, even if Elena did not mention it, he would actively remind her not to reveal her blood.

In fact, if it hadn't been for Elena always wanting to clarify her relationship with the magical world, Dumbledore hadn't even planned to tell Elena about these half-blood matters.

"Anything else? I recall you said 'a few,' right?"

Dumbledore smiled easily. Compared to Riddle, who was more pensive than ten years ago, it was evident that Elena was more straightforward and direct. In addition to being a bit whimsical, Elena is actually more willing to share her emotions and ideas with others. As for the slightly greedy nature of children, Dumbledore seems not to mind at all.

"Besides this, there is a simple request that may be slightly annoying and complicated. But if it's Professor Dumbledore, it's just an easy effort."

Elena blinked, her left thumb and index finger gestured, and she raised a second finger with her right hand.

"If possible, I would like to be an exchange student and go to the United States to study in fourth or fifth grade at the latest."

"Well... Are you going to the United States as an exchange student?"

Dumbledore's eyes showed a pensive gesture, slightly raising his eyebrows and, after a few seconds of indulgence, he said slowly.

"The Ifamoni School of Magic? This might pose some difficulties. Generally, there are few exchange students between magic schools..."

"No, I am not talking about magic schools."
