Chapter 257 Won’t cry? (Ch 257)

With a bang, a plate of lunch suddenly appeared on his desk. Kaisen naturally took the plate, picked up the knife and fork, and took a bite.

Chew chew chew chew chew chew…………

Then Hermione started to speak: “Professor, do you know that these delicacies on your plate are made by the enslaved house-elves in the Hogwarts kitchens.”

Kaisen: Chew chew chew… chew chew chew…

Chew chew chew…..chew chew chew…..

“So? So what?” Kaisen said while chewing.

“So… Professor, we are now oppressing and exploiting these house-elves like slave owners! We eat food made by the house-elves, and every inch of the castle we live in has traces of cleaning by the house-elves, and poor them don’t even have their wages.” Hermione said in a rhythmic manner.

“Hmm…so? Why do they need wages?” Kaisen sighed. He decided to have a good talk with Hermione. If she had just been pestering Harry and Neville before, he could naturally join in the fun with a smile, but now Hermione had turned her spearhead towards him.

To be honest, I was so arrogant before that I didn’t feel the pain until the knife hit me, but now that it has hit me…

Although it’s a little late, it’s not too late!

We must charge, Hermione now is no longer the ordinary Hermione, we must strike hard!!!

“They’ve worked hard, of course they need wages!” said Hermione.

“………………Hermione, do you know the changes in human productivity? I just gave a lecture to the seventh grade some time ago.” Kaisen asked back.

“I know. The seniors told us.” Hermione nodded.

“Initially, humans used slash-and-burn agriculture, and later they learned to raise animals and use animal power, such as using cows to plow the fields, donkeys to pull mills, carrots to fish, and pigs to carry people. Don’t they get paid?” Kaisen responded.

“Those are animals, they’re not people,” Hermione replied.

“Poppy.” Kaisen said, and the next moment a house-elf appeared among the people with a bang.

“Hermione, do you think it’s a human?”

Hermione looked at Poppy and swallowed. The current situation was not so favorable for her, but fortunately she still had her dignity and did not bite the bullet and say that the house-elf in front of her was a human.

“But it is intelligent life.”

Kaisen scratched his chin awkwardly: “You can’t call a life form intelligent only when it can speak. In fact, there are many intelligent lives. For example, cows even shed tears when they are slaughtered in the slaughterhouse, but no one still has any objection to eating beef.”

Hermione looked bitter. She was only fourteen years old and her experience was definitely not enough to defeat Kaisen, and the latter… obviously had no intention of letting Hermione go.

“And Hermione, you can’t impose your ideas on house-elves. That’s arrogance, a very deep arrogance. House-elves have different cognition from humans. They don’t like freedom and rights. Or maybe I’d put it more bluntly. They are all masochists. They like it that way.”

“And nowadays, house-elves serve as a social service. But if you forcibly liberate them, the original service providers of this society will disappear. Then who will fill this gap? Muggle-born wizards? Or ordinary Muggles without magic?”

“Or are they alchemical dolls? Unfortunately, they are not smart enough. Even if they are smart enough in the future… To be honest, alchemical dolls cannot provide emotional value, which is why house-elves are still popular in pure-blood families.”

“But after you did all this, no one will bless you. The wizards have lost their slaves, and some have even been forced to serve. They will definitely hate you.”

“The house-elves have lost their original social status. They hate you for making them lose their social status. Meanwhile, a large number of house-elves have become social instability factors outside the mainstream society. The Ministry of Magic will inevitably massacre them.”

“And your method is also problematic. Your method has already affected normal people. Perhaps I can be more blunt. You are now affecting Harry, Neville, Ron, and me. None of us are the slave owners of house-elves. The slave owners of house-elves are Dumbledore and pure-blood families, such as Sirius Black, Slytherin and his friends, and Draco Malfoy. In addition to that… Dobby, their family has four house-elves.”

“You didn’t choose to talk to the real slave owners of the house elves about liberating the elves, but instead went to us who were supposedly innocent. This can actually be considered… Please forgive my sharpness, this can be considered cowardice, because you clearly know that we will not really attack you.”

“But those Slytherin pure-bloods will, both physically and psychologically. Of course Sirius is not one of them.”

“What I want to say is that, judging from what you have done now, you don’t really want to liberate the house-elves. You just want to show your overflowing compassion and let others see your sincere sighs.”

“Wow! Hermione is so loving, beautiful and kind. Isn’t she Merlin in the world? I love her so much!”

“But in fact, they don’t see you that way. They think you are a fool with low emotional intelligence? Please forgive my wording.”

Kaisen responded while eating. To be honest, he didn’t need to use his brain to refute Hermione’s point of view. After all, Hermione’s so-called idea of ​​liberating the house-elves……………..

Chew chew chew chew chew chew…

Hermione looked at Kaisen who was chewing with a pale face, and then looked at Harry and the others who agreed with her.

When Kaisen saw Hermione’s expression, his face was shocked. He had a strange premonition that Hermione would not cry here, right?
