"Headmaster Dumbledore, this is a very serious matter. It is a serious violation of the rules for a young wizard to dare to cast a spell on another young wizard in the common room. If he is not punished harshly, then ......"

Seeing Auguste Luckwood quacking like a duck standing in front of him, Dumbledore held back his anger and tapped his fingers on the table.

He was overwhelmed by the fact that second-year student Terry Boot had flouted school rules and used a spell to attack fifth-grader Margarian Lukewood.

If the Ministry of Magic hadn't known about this, Terry Bout would have just been punished and confined according to the original plan. But now that August Luckwood has come to him, the Ministry of Magic knows about it.

Although Dumbledore was the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he was in charge of everything in the school. However, in terms of student education, the Ministry of Magic, as the regulatory authority, has the right to interfere in the affairs of the school within a certain range.

So when the Ministry of Magic came and Terry Bout used a spell to attack Margarian Luckwood, he couldn't handle it alone. And the bad news is about students using magic wands to attack other students in school, how to deal with this kind of bad behavior?

The Ministry of Magic has the power to bypass Dumbledore and deal with it on its own.

There is a feeling that power is being elevated, but there is no way to do it. Since the death of a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry decades ago, the Ministry of Magic has taken the safety of students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry very seriously.

No matter how powerful Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is, it is also under the management of the Ministry of Magic, even if Dumbledore wants to get rid of the rude man in front of him at this time, but there is no way.

August Lukewood has obtained a signed authorization from Minister Fudge of the Ministry of Magic, and the Ministry of Magic takes the incident of assault at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry very seriously.

Wow!

"Professor Graves, why are you here?"

While August Luckwood was still chattering and pressuring himself, Rick's figure appeared from the top of the staircase. Dumbledore, who was still thinking about how to save Terry Bout, saw Rick's arrival, his eyes lit up, and he thought of the key to breaking the game.

But he still pretended to be expressionless and asked Rick what he meant.

"Professor Dumbledore, I'm here for a student's business. I heard that the Ministry of Magic was trying to take my student away, so I came over to see who had the audacity to arrest an underage wizard who was still studying at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Is there still a reason? Is there still a royal law? ”

Rick walked into the Headmaster's room and found that there was only a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard in the Headmaster's room, except for Dumbledore, and that person in Rick's mind was Auguste Luckwood.

Ignoring the existence of August Lukewood, Rick walked up to Dumbledore and did not mention Terry's expulsion, but directly deducted the Wizard Hat from the Ministry of Magic who was still in school.

He looked at Dumbledore with an angry face, in fact, he was sarcastic about Auguste Luckwood next to him, who actually used the power of the Ministry of Magic to punish Terry because his son was bullied.

Putting aside the fact that August Luckwood is a Death Eater, just because his son was bullied, the adults came to take revenge, and you can see that Auguste Luckwood is not a good bird.

"Professor Graves, calm down. The matter is still being discussed, and it has not been concluded that Terry Bout will not be brought to trial at the Ministry of Magic. Let me introduce you first, this is Mr. August Luckwood, the head of the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic has entrusted Terry Bout with the use of spells. ”

After listening to Rick's words and looking at his expression, Dumbledore was happy, and it was obvious that Rick was speaking to Auguste Luckwood. Curious as to how Rick was going to settle the matter, Dumbledore informed Rick of Auguste Luckwood's identity.

"I'm Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Rick Graves. You're the father of Margarian Lukewood, a fifth-grader, right? ”

Rick turned his head and looked at Auguste Luckwood with a grim smile on his face, and held out his hand to shake hands.

Auguste Luckwood looked at Rick who suddenly entered, and his heart was puzzled, and then he suddenly remembered that the young man in front of him was the very difficult Yankee queen that Sinkenes had mentioned. An uneasiness stretched out in his heart.

"Yes, I am the father of the victim. However, I will not use the public for personal gain, and I have come to follow Secretary Fudge's instructions to come out of this vicious incident. ”

He hesitated as he looked at Rick's outstretched hand, but reached out to shake Rick's hand. I thought it was just a polite handshake, but suddenly he felt his palm tighten, and he wanted to quickly pull his hand out of Rick's hand, but it felt like his hand was caught in iron tongs, making it impossible for him to get out.

"Really? When, this kind of thing requires the presence of the director of the Department of Mysteries. Shouldn't this kind of thing be done by someone from the Legal Department? ”

Sensing that August Luckwood wanted to break free of his palm, Rick smiled and began to question the other party, this matter is not under his department's control.

"Hehe, the Ministry of Magic has been running out of manpower lately, and Minister Fudge has to send people from our Department of Mysteries to handle this kind of thing. I don't think an incident that happened at school would have to be dealt with by a colleague in the Legal Department. ”

Feeling the strength in his hand growing, August Luckwood's forehead was already sweating slightly.

Rick saw that the Death Eater mark on the other man's arm was still there, but it was hidden by magic. Once this was confirmed, Rick let go of August Luckwood's hand.

"I wonder what your Ministry of Magic wants to do with this?"

"Second-year Terry Bout blatantly violated school rules by using a wand to attack fifth-year Margarian Lukewood with a spell in the Ravenclaw common room. This is a very serious incident of violence that must be dealt with seriously. Originally, according to the rules of the Ministry of Magic, I was going to take Terry Boot back to the Ministry of Magic to stand trial, but Minister Fudge read that he was not yet fourteen years old, so he would be dealt with lightly, as long as the student was expelled. ”

Glancing at the four red marks on the back of his hand, Auguste Luckwood was annoyed. But even Sinkenes, who was in the Auror office, had suffered at the hands of the American in front of him, and he still explained angrily.

Although he was a Death Eater at the hands of Voldemort, he could not defeat Sinkenes without revealing his identity and using dark magic. So the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor in front of him, who could defeat Sinkenis, had to hold back even if he was angry.
