“…… Yes, that's right! This is the youngest head of the Auror Office of the British Ministry of Magic in recent years, Mr. Kingsley Shackle! It is said that in the past, when President Dumbledore was still alive, Mr. Shacklele was one of his right-hand men; And now, he is the most trusted person of Mr. Macklean...... Mr. Shackle, is that so? ”

Kingsley, who originally wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible when entering the venue, can be said to have failed completely.

And the only reason for his failure was the sudden and unexpected chattering ...... in the corridor outside the door. Well, the Italian representative of the old acquaintance - Congressman Giotto.

To be honest, Kingsley could have guessed the "careful thinking" of the other party who was so eager to introduce him to other councillors.

After all, this Monsieur Giotto has always been a figure known for his "non-existence". Even though he is the president of the International Alchemy Society, his achievements and fame in the international magical world are not small, but unfortunately everyone remembers almost all his name printed on books.

Can an international celebrity still be considered a "celebrity" when people can't get people to associate his name with his face?

In order to let more people know himself, this time he couldn't help but pull Kingsley, who was barely known to everyone under the conscious management of Maca, to his side.

Of course, given the current state of the world, the British wizarding community, which is in a whirlpool of troubles, is naturally the focus of attention of the Ministries of Magic. Among the lawmakers present, there are probably not many people who do not know that Kingsley is actually active at the front line.

"You...... Joe...... Well, Mr. Shakel, of course we've all heard of it! It is said that you are not only skilled in duels, but also have an excellent insight into the current situation and government affairs...... Mr. Shakel, if I'm not mistaken, you're only about thirty years old this year, aren't you? It's terrifying! ”

Giotto's conversation was stolen by an older-looking parliamentarian who was supposed to be a representative of the Greek Ministry of Magic, judging by the badge he wore on his chest.

And from what the old congressman said, it can be heard that Kingsley's information has indeed succeeded in being known by many people.

However, Congressman Giotto, who was standing next to Kingsley and had just desperately introduced him, was now somewhat embarrassed - not only did people fail to remember his name, but they even quickly gave up remembering it altogether.

Moreover, the tragedy of Monsieur Giotto, who had a very low presence, was far from over.

"Mr. Shaker, I didn't expect to see you here again! Oh, maybe you don't remember me much anymore, because we didn't talk much at the time, and I was—"

"It's the Vice President of the Magical Congress of the United States, Mr. Louis Hearst, right? Of course, I certainly remember...... You stood next to Ms. Oprah when I was sent to your Capitol to meet Ms. Oprah in order to cooperate with your country's efforts to bring the Silent Ones to an end. ”

probably felt that it was impossible to keep a low profile now, so Kingsley simply let go a little and chatted with the other party.

"Oh, it's hard for you to remember me......," said Mr. Hearst, and nodded enthusiastically, "before I came, Ms. Oprah wondered if it would be Mr. Scrimgeour himself who came to the meeting!" Ah, yes! Is Principal Stewart okay? This support for your country was offered by President Stewart...... Of course, there is a lot of support within the Diet! ”

Obviously, the so-called "politicians", whether Muggles or wizards, are the same. Hurst didn't even blink his eyes when he added the last sentence in passing, and he still had a perfect smile on his face.

In this regard, Kingsley could only act as if he didn't hear it at all, and then the other party's momentum continued.

After that, perhaps the delegates of the three continents, Europe, the United States, and Africa, and relatively close to Britain, were eager to keep up to date with the current situation in London, so many people naturally came around Kingsley.

It didn't take long for Congressman Giotto, who had been sticking to Kingsley's side at first, wanting to take the opportunity to show off, to be squeezed to the outermost by the others.

Looking at Kingsley's seat, which was already full of people in front of him, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Forget it! Anyway, I'm just a poor worm with no sense of existence, and no matter how hard I try, it's useless...... When this meeting is over, retire! ”

Even if he is only forty-five years old this year, let alone as a wizard, even Muggles are far from the age to go home and retire. Rather, as a celebrity trying to make his mark in international wizarding politics, this is just the beginning!

It's just that with his discouraged appearance, he really looks like a dying old man.

……

When there was a small commotion in the venue because of Kingsley's appearance, Akinbad and the others, who were still sitting and waiting upstairs, became more and more silent.

As the opening of the meeting approached, the few people present who were more or less aware of some of the truths naturally felt that the air had become a lot heavier.

Especially Akinbad, as the current president of the federation, has faintly shown signs of standing in line because of his personal friendship.

Even if Maca didn't let him do anything partiality in order to take care of his position, this state of knowing what Maca was going to do but not blocking it seemed to be a kind of favoritism in itself.

"Mr. Dumbledore was right! The president of the federation, it's really not so easy to be—"

Akinbad was sitting by the window and thinking to himself, when suddenly, three cautious knocks sounded behind him, causing him to turn slowly.

It was the previous secretary to the French Ministry of Magic who had come in, and he had quickly followed him after Ginsley had gone down to observe the situation.

When he came in this time, he truthfully reported the current state of the venue as usual, and then withdrew again, and carefully closed the door.

When the door was closed, Arkinbad looked back and forth with Madame Maxim and the old butler of Fort Blois, who had been standing beside him and refused to sit down.

"Well, that's a matter of course......" Akinbard paused, still nodding slightly, "Since Mr. Dumbledore's death, McKel has not let Mr. Shackle's face appear in big and small scenes, and the effect is obvious. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly paused slightly, then frowned and said:

"Speaking of which, it seems like it's time to count which representatives didn't show up, right?"
