Main Character's POV
It has been two days since that incident. Although I haven't changed much physically, my magic has grown significantly stronger. My parents have also received some kind of blessing. However, the problem is that my awakening has made me a target; nearly everyone in the world is now searching for me. My father has told me to keep my abilities a secret.
There is some good news: the terrorist group has stopped their activities. But now, the conflict has escalated to a global level. Previously, if I was found, it would have been a local group after me. Now, if I'm exposed, the whole world will be after me. Because of this incident, I've learned more about the world, or rather, more knowledge has been made public.
In a recent article, there was a warning about the Templars and what they do. They use a different type of energy as their source called "faith." It was clarified that faith is formed by the collective beliefs of all living beings toward something. The Templars use this to fight wizards.
If "magic" is considered a change in nature, then "faith" represents the order of nature. Therefore, faith has some resistance to or can even nullify magic. However, to use "faith," one needs talent in the spiritual aspect and compatibility with higher forms. The Templars use wizard children by stripping their magic potential and replacing it with faith.
The differences between magic and faith also extend to their generation. Magic requires no one except yourself, explaining its free and solitary nature. Faith, on the other hand, requires people's devotion to be generated, representing unity in its nature. In ancient times, when the Templars wanted to expand, they organized witch hunts to create fear, opened orphanages and hospitals to screen wizard-potential children to convert, and created religions to gather faith.
There was a war between the Templars and wizards, resulting in a treaty. The Templars could keep their religion and spread it among Muggles but were forbidden from interfering with wizards. Now, it seems the treaty is crumbling, and the seeds of a new war are ready to germinate.
From a General POV
As Ash worried about his future, his parents were even more concerned. The atmosphere in their home was tense, filled with an underlying current of fear and uncertainty. The usually cozy living room now felt like a war room, with maps and magical texts scattered around.
"What should we do?" asked Ash's mother, her voice trembling as she wrung her hands together.
"For now, don't do anything. Our house has the Fidelius Charm. As long as we keep this matter a secret, no one will find out," said Ash's father, his tone steady but eyes betraying his worry.
"Should we talk to Dumbledore? Maybe he can protect Ash," suggested his mother, her eyes wide with desperation.
"No, it's better not to tell anyone. Just pretend it didn't happen. Or we could remove our memories of this incident," said Ash's father, his face set in grim determination.
All Around the Wizarding World
The number of wizards entering the city has increased, and Aurors have become stricter than ever. Muggle world passages are closed, so no Muggle parents can enter the wizarding world. Large and small conflicts are occurring near Muggle hospitals and orphanages as the Templars use their Muggle churches to trick Muggles into sending their children to them. In response, the Muggle government has made this illegal, causing riots in the Muggle world.
All vampires and werewolves are strictly prohibited from acting without informing the Aurors first. The Floo Network is banned by the Ministry, and only Knight Buses are allowed. Both the wizarding and Muggle worlds are tense. Muggle politicians have requested a meeting with the wizarding world to stabilize the situation and have also arranged a meeting with the Bishop, but no reply has been given yet.
