Chapter 502: The Dark Political Game
Can the 'Dragon Thieves' heal the Unforgivable Curse? Sirius Black was wronged? Voldemort borrowed ancient dark magic to be reborn? The continuous shocking news overwhelmed the entire British wizarding community and even the world wizarding community.
Compared to Voldemort's rebirth, the 'Dragon Thieves' ability to heal the Unforgivable Curse is even more appealing. The reason why the Three Unforgivable Curses have been strictly banned by ministries of magic around the world is that the three most powerful curses have long been irreversible, and this recognition seems to have become the common knowledge of Newton's laws in the Muggle world. But today, when living examples are placed in front of people's eyes, people cannot help but believe them. After checking Cedric. Diggory's body does show signs of being hit by the Death Curse. And the magic in his body seemed to disappear out of thin air. Diggory is no doubt with a normal Muggle. It can heal the Unforgivable Curse and make the mysterious and powerful 'Dragon Thieves' even more famous.
Igor. Karkaroff, the director of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has now left the British Ministry of Magic with a swagger. With rumors that the Dragons and Thieves were able to cure the Unforgivable Curse confirmed, there is no one to pursue Igor Murphy. Karkaroff was guilty of not reporting his knowledge. And the nobles who sent their children to Durmstrang seem to have passed through Igor. Karkaroff got acquainted with the idea of the 'Dragon Thieves'. Strong strength, no matter where you are, you will be treated as a guest.
The British Ministry of Magic, which wants to save face, still wants to hide it, and refuses to put down the palm-sized fig leaf. A series of hearings took place one after another. Harry, who was sitting on the witness stand. Potter, the boy who never died, repeats how he took the trophy to little Hangleton. And Cedric. Diggory, a decadent teenager who lost his ability to cast spells, is also repeating what happened before he was attacked by Peter Pettigrew.
Unlike the Muggle world, which uses DNA to identify suspects, the wizarding world is much faster, in Gringotts. A special vault of the Black family, which can only be unlocked by characters with the blood of the Black family. Although Sirius Black underwent plastic surgery and became a different person, it was impossible to go wrong with the ancient magic forbidden. When Sirius Black unlocks the Black family's vault, his identity is confirmed.
Connelly. Fudge also seems to want to grab the last straw through Harry. Potter and Cedric. The testimony of Diggory and the two cannot be refuted by the time difference in between. Then the characters who witnessed Voldemort's rebirth. Only Harry. Potter and the untraced 'Dragons and Thieves' are no one else. As long as Peter Pettigrew denied the fact of Voldemort's resurrection, then Cornelius. Fudge's responsibility as Britain's Minister for Magic could be halved.
Frowning, Connelly. Fudge sat in his office, thinking about how to get through the difficult time in front of him. The door has long been surrounded by the media. As long as Cornelly. As soon as Fudge showed up, he was confronted with a tidal wave of interviews. A knock on the door interrupted Connelly, who was thinking about a countermeasure. Fudge. "Didn't I say it's okay not to bother me!!" Connelly. Fudge didn't raise his head and yelled at the door.
"Your Excellency, what is it about you that makes you so angry?" Suave words, to Connelly. Fudge looked up, Lucius. Malfoy's signature long pale blonde hair and elegant face caught the eye. For this big donor, Connelly. Fudge didn't have the heart to please at this point. He raised his eyelids and said lightly, "Lucius? My friend. What's the matter with you at this time? ”
Lucius. Malfoy sat down on the couch and set his cane aside. "Maybe I can solve your immediate troubles for you"
The other party's confident tone made Connelly. Fudge raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "You have a way to solve it?" ”
"Actually, it's not difficult to say, as long as Peter Pettigrew, who has disappeared for twelve years, can't open his mouth" The tone of understatement seems to not take Peter Pettigrew's life into account at all. As a superior person, the dirty deed of killing people is naturally a sentence and someone will do it for him, Lucius. Malfoy's tip. Seems to make Connelly. Fudge saw hope for a solution to the problem ahead. Calculating the gains and losses after getting rid of Peter Pettigrew, Connelly. Fudge couldn't help but frown. "Even if we get rid of that rat that has been hiding for more than ten years, Sirius Black has now stepped up, and we can't even take him," Connelly said. Fudge hesitated.
Lucius touched his nose and smiled indifferently, "How many people would believe the testimony of a fugitive?" At most, it proves that the judgment was wrong, but you weren't the Minister of Magic back then, were you? This black pot can't be carried by you, if you really dig into it. Even he Dumbledore has a part, after all, Dumbledore's testimony back then is the key to determining Blake's guilt."
"That Harry. Potter's testimony is hard to refute when it says that the mysterious man has come back to life. Fudge asked slowly, and by this time, Connelly. Fudge had already identified Lucius. Malfoy, a proud aristocrat, really has a way to get through the difficulties in front of him.
Squinting. Lucius. Malfoy looked at Cornelius. If it weren't for Voldemort's benefit, Fudge would not have come here to advise the British Minister of Magic, who was about to expire. Unable to prevent it, Voldemort, who was directly knocked into the air by the vajra wood summoned by Tsunade, suffered a lot of injuries, broken ribs, bleeding internal organs, and this injury can be recovered as long as there is a 'bone enhancer' and a 'healing potion', so Voldemort came directly to Malfoy Manor, Voldemort's sudden visit, so Lucius. Malfoy broke out in a cold sweat. As a hero, the courage of a strong man to break his wrist, the style of abandoning the car to protect the handsome is indispensable, shouldn't the servant put the interests of the master first? Therefore, it is imperative to abandon Peter Pettigrew, a useless pawn. Coupled with the fact that his plans were sabotaged by the mysterious 'Dragon Thieves' one after another, Voldemort also recognized the strength of the 'Dragon Thieves'. Able to cast the ancient 'No Wand Cast' spell, this is strong enough to challenge his own Death Eaters, and the 'Dragon Thieves' still have no one to know their true identity. Sometimes, the strength of high-end combat power is not something that cannon fodder can make up for. In the hearts of the Death Eaters were scattered. Fleeing, captured, captured, and now that it is impossible to make the once feared Death Eaters fight against the 'Dragon Thieves', the most important thing now is to continue to hide the fact that Voldemort has been resurrected, and wait for the time to gather the scattered Death Eaters. Think again.
"Hehe, Harry. Potter's testimony was not with Cedric. Is there a time lag in Diggory's testimony? It is said that Cedric. Diggory, the child, has now become a squib! It's decadent, and if the Ministry of Magic can use all its resources to help him regain his magic, what do you think will happen? "Lucius. Malfoy whispered.
Politics is a game of compromise of interests, and the Department of Magical Creatures Management and Control, which has little real power, began to hunt and kill magical creatures exterminating by the 'Dragon Thieves'. Diggory, a member of the Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures, spends his days eating and waiting for death. But now Amos. Diggory stayed at home all day to take care of his children. What was once the hope of the family has now become a squib that cannot cast magic, this change. Jean Cedric. How does Diggory take it? Several days of hearings in a row as a witness to Cedric. Diggory was already miserable. If you lose your magic, are you still called a wizard? Looking at the wand in his hand, he didn't react at all, twelve and a quarter inches, made of ash, with the unicorn's feathers as the core, it turned out that as long as he held it in his hand, he could feel the feeling of blood compatibility. At this time, it is held in the hand like an ordinary log.
'Fluorescent scintillation'

Tears of despair crossed the handsome face. The simplest spell was repeated countless times, but the wand in his hand still did not respond. "Why did you want to revive me? It's better to die directly than to die, if I die, maybe I can still be a hero," Cedric roared frantically, and the wand in his hand seemed to become ironic at this moment, and he slammed it hard. Drop your beloved wand to the ground.
Looking at his once talented son, who has now become this decadent appearance, Amos. Diggory was no less bitter than his own son, and he comforted Cedric with a smile every day, using his already modest savings. Seek out a variety of famous potions masters to heal Cedric. But it's also true that the most famous potions masters are helpless.
'Hum' Diggory family's fireplace, a burst of green sparks, and a figure wearing a top hat and a fat figure was revealed.
Amos. Diggory heard the movement and walked downstairs. Seeing the people coming clearly, Amos was in a depressed mood. Diggory couldn't help but cheer up. "Your Excellency the Minister will have a hearing tomorrow, and I will take Cedric to the hearing," said Amos. Diggory said respectfully.
Connelly. Fudge waved his hand, signaling the other party not to be so restrained, "Hehe, it's nothing, I know that your Diggory family is the most punctual magic family, in fact, I came this time mainly to visit Cedric, oh he is so talented, if it weren't for this incident, when he graduates, I will definitely arrange a fairly decent job for him in the Ministry of Magic, with his strength, even if he is the captain of the Aurors, it is not a problem"
The more the other party said so, Amos. The more Diggory felt bad in his heart. The bright future has now become a dream bubble. Nothing was possible, and although he still wanted to cure his child, he had spent almost all his savings in the past few days searching for those famous potionsmen. Reality blows to make Amos. Diggory is much older.
During the conversation, Cornelius. Fudge kept an eye on Amos. Diggory's expression was that he had already investigated Cedric's situation before he came. Since the 'Dragon Thieves' exterminated killing of magical creatures, the price of various potions has increased exponentially, and it is not at all affordable for ordinary Ministry of Magic staff. As soon as the voice turned, Connelly. Fudge smiled, "Of course, Cedric's health is really bad now, I have discussed with the Noble Association, and decided to pay all the costs of Cedric's treatment, and if it is really not good in the future, Mr. Lucius will also arrange a decent job for Cedric in the Muggle world."
Cornelly who visited late at night. Fudge brought great boon, and this feeling of being hit on the head by happiness made Amos . Diggory couldn't be from. I don't even know how to thank him excitedly. "Thank you so much, Your Excellency and Mr. Lucius, if Cedric can be cured, you will be the benefactor of our Diggory family," Amos burst into tears. Diggory said tremblingly.
"Haha, don't be busy thanking you first, in fact, you also know that those people who are in the noble agreement have a lot of property, don't they? If I am saying that if the news of the resurrection of the mysterious man comes true, then many industries will be affected. So "although the words are not exhausted, but Connelly. The smile on Fudge's face made Amos. Diggory sensed that this sudden gospel was not so easy to obtain. The naked reality tells Amos. Diggory, an ordinary employee of the Ministry of Magic, has a high cost of treatment, which is no longer something he can afford. If it's really not treated, you have to find a way out for Cedric, don't you? Without his magical powers, is Cedric going to do the most menial work like some squib?
"Okay, I'll go talk to Cedric," Amos. Diggory said helplessly. (To be continued......)
PS: It's not that women are too realistic, but the reality is like this, and a good friend said something that impressed me, 'Falling in love in school, finding a boyfriend in the same school, isn't it going out to open a room?' It's possible that he has no money and is still looking for me, but if he finds a person with better economic conditions to fall in love, although he also opens a house, at least I can live well, right? ’
