Mysterious Journey

Chapter 993: Guardianship System

Hyperion, Captain's Cabin.

Xenophilius's voice traveled thousands of miles, echoing in the ears of Eileen and the three little ones.

Mr. Lovegood's attitude did not surprise Eileen. From the moment she wrote Luna's name, this was inevitable.

Unlike the naive three little ones, all the Major Arcana present were very clear about what they were doing and the risks hidden behind it.

Although no one had mentioned it, everyone knew that if they failed, they would inevitably face a backlash from the whole world.

Perhaps the lower-level personnel could escape judgment, but as the initiators of the Major Arcana, none of them would get away unscathed.

"So, what is your reason, Hermit?"

Eileen took Luna's right hand under the table, gently patted the back of her hand, and asked with a light smile.

"This is a Major Arcana meeting. The words you just said should be based on your identity as 'The Hermit', right?"

She glanced meaningfully at the magical projections of the other Major Arcana members in mid-air.

Without reasonable arguments, let alone Xenophilius Lovegood, even she herself could not force others to listen to her in the Major Arcana meeting. If a certain old father confused this point, she wouldn't mind initiating an impeachment and restricting voting in front of Luna.

"Today we are talking about probationary Major Arcana, not someone's daughter or relatives, Hermit," Grindelwald grinned, intentionally or unintentionally reminding Xenophilius.

Xenophilius Lovegood remained serious. He sat up straight, obviously not affected by the two Dark Lords.

"That's right, then let me be blunt - Luna Lovegood is my daughter, uh, this is the core reason why I oppose her becoming a probationary Major Arcana. Her joining will break the original balance of the Major Arcana. Blood is the strongest alliance. If she becomes 'The High Priestess' and takes over the Gringotts business, it will inevitably lead to confusion in the power between *The Quibbler* and Gringotts."

"Sorry," Eileen said lightly, "Hermit, I may have to correct you. There is no necessary connection between 'The High Priestess' and Gringotts Wizarding Bank. The latter is a task that was separated from me...You seem to have confused the cause and effect."

"Blood doesn't represent a person's position, but rather means independence and difference. This is the answer of history." Nicolas Flamel tapped the table, nodded towards Eileen, and took the initiative to release goodwill.

"Unfortunately, Miss Lovegood's age is obviously not yet independent—" Xenophilius retorted quickly, turning his head to look at "The Hierophant" who had been watching from the sidelines, and continued.

"At least for a Hogwarts first-year student, this stage is a bit too early. Whether it is ability, intelligence, or temperament, Luna has a long way to go before she can handle problems independently. I think the cultivation of underage wizards should be gradual."

Dumbledore nodded slightly, and said unhurriedly:

"As of now, the three young ladies are indeed a little too young."

He adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, crossed his fingers and placed them on the desk, his blue eyes looking forward through the screen.

Every outstanding leader of an era will inevitably be surrounded by more than one supernova.

Compared with these old guys who are dying, it is understandable that Eileen seeks and cultivates her own companions, but this does not mean that they are qualified to go to the end, let alone stand on the stage so early and so urgently, dancing freely.

More than a year ago, he misjudged Eileen's destructive power, and he wouldn't repeat the same mistake this time.

Moreover, unlike Eileen, who has emerged and convinced everyone with heavyweight cases, the other three little witches are too naive.

Just as Xenophilius said, Dumbledore also did not think that they were qualified to shoulder so much responsibility.

Of course, this is also the purpose of their meeting here today.

"The world belongs to us, and it belongs to them, but ultimately it belongs to the younger ones."

Dumbledore's fingertips were facing each other, his gaze lowered to look at his increasingly dry hands, and he continued calmly.

"If everything goes well, then before the world undergoes earth-shattering changes, they should have the ability to sort out, coordinate the chaotic noise, and guide those things to the right path. Therefore, we can choose some potential children in advance, guide them carefully and systematically, so that they can avoid some of the detours we have taken, and grow better and faster to meet the new era."

"Miss Lovegood, Miss Granger, Miss Abbott, they are the first batch of selected children, but definitely not the last..."

"It is too early to discuss whether they can be promoted to Major Arcana. It's like pointing to a child who has just entered school and guessing whether she will become the Minister for Magic in the future. It doesn't make any sense - only time can tell us the final answer."

"Therefore, I have expanded a little on Miss 'The Fool's' proposal and established a guardianship system for 'Underage Tarot Members'."

Hearing this, Eileen's pupils shrank suddenly, and the leisurely smile that had nothing to do with her disappeared instantly.

In terms of verbal expression, Dumbledore seemed to be explaining to her, and it was also acceptable to change the guide to a guardian.

However, with the establishment of the 'Guardianship System', the difference is much greater - this means that the Spicy Radish is turning this special event into a long-term system for cultivating Tarot members.

You know, if it is changed to "Underage Tarot Members", the coverage is not only Hermione, Luna, and Hannah.

Not to mention that there are Draco Malfoy and Irina Ivanovna, such low-level members in the school, the most important point is that she herself is an "Underage Tarot Member". The intention of a guy like Spicy Radish in choosing words is too obvious.

Eileen originally thought that Hermione, Luna, and Hannah would become the focus of debate.

Who knew…

Just as Dumbledore's voice fell, Eileen narrowed her eyes.

Heh, I see!

She raised her eyebrows high and looked up at the white-haired old wizard, her heart filled with understanding.

From beginning to end, Dumbledore's real target was her?
