Chapter 69: The Royal Meeting
Josh didn't know that a few casual words with Dumbledore had brought him benefits that he hadn't even expected. Because he didn't think about it at all, it could only be regarded as an accident.
Josh also went back to his previous mode of class, workout, and sparring with Galen. It's monotonous, but Josh doesn't feel too bored, at least he can tease Natasha and Galen when he's fine, and sometimes he can bully Harry and Malfoy who come to clean up in his office.
For some reason, Josh found that Malfoy had become a different person since he had listened to his conversation with Dumbledore - not that he hadn't changed before, but this time it seemed to have become more thorough.
For example, while maintaining the demeanor of an aristocratic person, he also established friendships with young wizards born in Muggle families in various houses. If it weren't for the fact that Josh didn't know this guy, he would have thought that this guy's personality was like this, you must know that this guy had no scruples about shouting at Hermione before.
The term is a very vicious bashing in this world, specifically for aristocratic wizards to mock Muggle-born wizards. You can imagine how arrogant and bad this guy was before, and Josh was very annoyed when he was still young, and he couldn't wait to go up and beat this guy for a while. But now......
"Looks like I'm getting a little too much influence."
Josh touched his chin, a little strange but more interesting. And he also feels that he has no problem changing the world at all, whether he is afraid of him or respects him from the bottom of his heart, Josh feels very good.
"That's what I want anyway, and it's a good thing to have a personal idea. But the interests of the world seem to be suppressed by Voldemort and are a little out of breath. ”
It really doesn't matter what their attitude is, Josh really doesn't care if they listen to their Josh or not. He wants to be the rule-maker rather than the manager who manages some people, as long as these people are within the scope of his own rules, Josh won't care so much, if he dares to exceed or violate, he doesn't need Josh to do it, I'm afraid Dumbledore will run over these guys.
But now it seems that these guys are easier to conquer than Josh imagined, and the reason for this is really thanks to Voldemort. Of course, there is also the fact that the meditation method given by Josh is too important for them, and if they don't obey, they can't get it at all, so they have to give in.
"Do you want to thank that Voldemort in a wave? Write an epitaph for him after he dies or something? ”
Josh thought about it with some boredom, but soon he stopped paying attention to these things. Because he was about to take Howard to Buckingham Palace, of course, he was accompanied by Dumbledore and some members of the Ministry of Magic, who seemed to have volunteered to match Josh after hearing that he was going.
Josh didn't quite understand how they knew what they were going to do, but he knew that he didn't hide it. Dumbledore was also a little embarrassed, but after thinking about Josh's behavior that he didn't care about at all and didn't shy away from it, he just forgot it.
Although he has the final say in the school, many of those school directors and those students belong to aristocratic families, so it is clear when you think about it. And Dumbledore even knew who probably reported the letter for the first time, but combined with Draco's recent performance, Dumbledore was very satisfied.
After all, they are all his students, and they are all people of the same world, and he is not willing to show in front of Josh how stiff and humble their world and relationships between people are. If it was before, he might not have such a mentality, because at most it is the relationship between countries, but now it is beyond the world's problems.
"So, are we going to see the Queen of England now?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
"No, it's just that I didn't expect another queen to appear in the UK. Thinking about it, George VI didn't seem to have much of a choice, and she was only slightly older than the one I remembered. ”
"It's not unusual."
Howard was still a little excited, after all, the feelings of the Europeans were there. Europeans and Americans always have an inexplicable emotion when facing the royal family, especially those with a long history, after all, in a sense, they are originally a family. Historically.
So Howard's mood Josh knew, but there really wasn't much to understand. But considering that he used to be an Asian, he was not interested in learning about these things at all, and even after he arrived in another world, he directly became a prince, and he would not have that kind of mood.
Are you royal? I'm sorry that you're just a mascot who lived through the Glorious Revolution but has been retained because of some traditions, and you don't have even the slightest political right. Josh doesn't look down on them, although he doesn't mix well in the Muya Continent, but he is also a prince, a prince of a powerful empire, or a lord of real power.
So Josh is much calmer than Howard, and not only him, but even Dumbledore is very calm. After all, even if it's the royal family, it's just different people, it's just that they are given more respect, and those in the Ministry of Magic don't care even more.
"Okay Howard, when you become a magician, you won't feel too much about these so-called royals anymore. Even if you just become a wizard, you have become a being that is completely beyond them, so there is no need to be so excited. ”
"Well, I'm only in your enlightenment stage right now, so it's the most common thing I've been thinking about now."
"So what, there's no way she's going to give you a medal."
"Maybe, in my world, she might give it to me."
"Hell knows."
After a few casual teases with Howard, Josh opened the portal directly after seeing that basically everyone had arrived - as he became more and more proficient in spatial magic, coupled with Akatosh's teachings, he no longer needed to simulate the release of the portal according to the structure of the Void Gate.
With a wave of their hand, they saw something similar to a vortex appear in front of them, but it might be better to call it a silver hole - somewhat similar to a black hole, but it was indeed formed by a silver energy body.
Josh himself was pleased with the simplification of this magic, first of all, its consumption was much smaller than the previous one, and secondly, it was very convenient to release. You don't need any chant to be able to perform it, and of course, the same as before, you still need to locate it in advance, but Josh who has a target only needs to lock on to the target.
They didn't want to use any Floo powder, not to mention how cheap it was to come out of someone else's chimney. Their group is not an ordinary wizard, to put it bluntly, they are all some people with status in the wizarding world - except for Howard, and even these retinues from the Ministry of Magic are subordinate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
One by one, the group passed through the portal, and although the men sent by the Ministry of Magic hesitated, they quickly walked inside. Josh and the others soon find themselves in a palatial palace, and not far in front of them are sitting a woman in her fifties and a middle-aged man.
Everyone, including Qiao Xi, recognized the identities of these two at the first time, they were the queen and her son Charles. Although there are some differences between these two and Josh's memory, they are relatively easy to recognize, especially Charles, who makes Josh look at him with some sympathy.
This guy is indeed a little unlucky, not to evaluate the fact of his Princess Diana, but at least it makes him very uneasy. The second is the issue of children's education, hesitation breaks tradition, he is also controversial, and he also has an affair.
At this point, Josh thinks that Princess Diana has no problem, although the education issue breaks the tradition, but Josh thinks that this will make her children live better and get more friendships, and she is also very rational on the issue of affairs, but unfortunately she died in a car accident.
Although it is not clear whether the British royal family did it, but smart people know that it is a devastating blow to the royal family to do this, and the members of the royal family are basically well-educated and basically will not do such brainless things.
But understanding is understanding, but how public opinion attracts people's attention in this aspect is how to come. So unfortunately the Prince Charles was in bad luck, and the conspiracy theories didn't stop until Josh crossed over. And this is not the most unlucky, the most unlucky thing is his mother.
This guy has survived to seventy, and his mother ****** and still alive and well have no intention of abdicating. This world is not the Muya Continent, their lifespan is not that long, and Josh has been thinking more than once whether this guy can survive the end.
But that doesn't matter to Josh, he's just a habitual eater before.
"Welcome, friends from the other side of the world."
Standing up with a smile on her face, she was a little surprised at the way they appeared—although the wizard who had protected her had already learned about it, she was still amazed when she saw it for the first time, but she suppressed this emotion and spoke very reservedly and politely.
"Thank you very much for your welcome, Your Majesty."
Dumbledore and the others also immediately bowed slightly to show their respect, although they were all wizards and mages, they still had to maintain respect in the face of the monarch. But there is someone who is not like them, and that is Josh. This guy didn't have much respect at all, just nodded slightly and didn't care.
This made Dumbledore feel a little embarrassed, but he was relieved to think about Josh's identity. Josh doesn't look down on this royal family, he can fully understand, and even he agrees with Josh's way of signaling very much, but this is someone else's palace, although you are right to do this, it will be very embarrassing.
"This must be the long-rumored His Highness Augustus, right? It is a pleasure to meet you, and at the same time very much that you have come to our world. ”
Josh's gesture was quickly noticed by ******, and she was very concerned about what the other side of the world was really like. At a very young age, she had already learned from her parents that the world was not that simple.
But now there is a different world, or someone who is an alien visitor, she is also very curious. And listening to the wizards who protect themselves, they all sighed at the magic of this young man, especially the fact that he solved the most terrifying people in the British wizarding world, and brought more wonderful changes, ****** was even more interested.
"It's nice to meet you, Your Excellency, just call me Josh."
