Chapter Ninety-Nine: The End of Judgment, the Inertia of the Times

PS: Add chapters.

...

After a few moments, Fudge stared at Ms. Gestilda Marchiban and spat out a vicious sentence, "The law can be changed." ”

"Of course."

Dumbledore bowed and said, "Nothing is going to last long, and it looks like you're making a lot of changes, Connelly." ”

"Maybe I'll be out of the Wizengamot tomorrow."

"But you have to be clear about one thing, and that's that at least at this moment, everything is settled, isn't it?"

Dumbledore was still so modest and polite, but there was a coldness in his words.

An inexplicable chill came from all sides of the stands, enveloping them tightly.

...

At this moment, the old headmaster was sheltered, leaning back in the armchair, his hands and ten fingers together, and no more words came out of his mouth. But the eyes were fixed on everyone in the stands.

Roar!

Anthony on the side looked sideways at Dumbledore.

He had never felt the spirit of this great white wizard so closely.

The kind of invisible pressure that obviously has not released anything, but the invisible pressure is indeed substantial and heavy, and it is simply not too domineering.

The wizarding world is still a world of the jungle at the end of the day.

Although the personal power of this world is far from reaching the bottom of the earth-changing world like in the story. But the harm is no less.

Think of the one next to him, Dumbledore!

What would it be like if he and Grindelwald had teamed up?

The old headmaster has been staying at Hogwarts all these years, rarely showing his face, and these junior wizards don't know his strength at all.

In this way, I dare to be so presumptuous.

Back in 1945, he had just beaten Grindelwald.

That's what he says.

Who would dare to refute it?

...

At this point, everyone in the Wizengamot was really feeling the pressure.

The whispering around also gradually stopped.

"I agree with Ms. Gestilda Marchiban that, at least for now, Anthony has not violated any specific law," Ms. Amelia Bones said slowly.

"So..."

"Now, vote, please!"

Ms. Bones said in a loud voice.

Hearing this, Fudge immediately raised his hand, and at least seven or eight people, including Umbridge, raised their hands. Including the witch to his right, the bearded wizard, and the curly-haired witch on the second row.

But...

If it's just these people, it seems... Not more than halfway.

"You..."

He looked left and right, and there seemed to be a large piece of something stuck in his throat, and then he put his hand down and took two deep breaths.

Desperately suppressing the anger in his heart, even his voice became strange: "Very good." Very good!!! ”

"It seems that the accusation is not established." Dumbledore said cheerfully, then quickly stood up, drew his wand, and turned the chintz armchair into nothing.

"Alright, I have to go. Have a nice day. ”

With that, he turned around and was about to leave.

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly stopped him.

"Wait... Headmaster Dumbledore. ”

"The Muggle matter is over, but the wizard's matter, about you, please ask the Ministry of Magic to discuss it in detail."

Fudge stared at Dumbledore with a fierce gaze.

Then he got up and left the stands.

And Anthony was finally liberated.

Professor McGonagall helped him remove the chains from his chair. Then he took his arm and sternly told him "don't run around", and then hurriedly followed Dumbledore to the ministry.

...

"Your Highness."

"Your Highness..."

At this time, many officials came over and greeted him.

After this incident, he is really known in the circle of senior civil officials.

"Hello! His Highness Anthony. Sir Humphrey also came over at this time, and he looked at Anthony playfully, and pursed his lips, "It seems that your school life is not very pleasant. ”

"Often, sir."

"It's just that this time it's a bit of a big fuss."

"It's a matter of time." Mr. Huck had not yet recovered from the joy of his successful speech, he smiled and patted Anthony on the shoulder, and then said nonchalantly, "Maybe it's a good thing!" ”

"I think the wizards are reacting well."

"Sir, they're just excited for a while, and after a while, when the Ministry of Magic promotes it for a while, most of them will continue to oppose us." Anthony said with a frown, he was not optimistic about the current form.

It's too early...

If there is no external force, it is difficult for a group to change steadily.

"Don't worry too much, Your Highness." Sir Humphrey shook his head and said, "There is nothing we can do about it, but at least this speech was a great success. ”

"One of the few pieces of good news..."

Just when Anthony was feeling lost about the future.

Suddenly, on the other side of the stands, an agent he knew with anxiously pushed through the crowd and walked over.

"Mr. Prime Minister..."

"Mr. Prime Minister..."

At this moment, Michael Holmes was holding a document, with a solemn expression, and walked quickly from the crowd.

"Sir, information from Germany." McCroft whispered, and after handing the document to Mr. Huck, he underestimated it twice in the Prime Minister's ear.

Hearing this, Mr. Huck's face changed. Then he immediately quickened his pace and prepared to leave.

"Oh! By the way, Your Highness Anthony, as a person who has come over, I suggest you listen to the professors, especially Headmaster Dumbledore, he is a good man. Suddenly, Mr. Huck turned to Anthony as if something sounded.

"Huh?"

Anthony, who looked confused, saw him leave in a hurry before he could figure out what Mr. Huck meant.

Don't look back.

In a flash, the entire golden hall suddenly became empty.

Some of the employees of the Ministry of Magic returned to the Ministry in twos and threes. Others waved their wands and began to dismantle the stands.

Everyone is busy, like cogs.

Even if no one pushes them on, they will turn on their own.

He wanted to yell.

Feed!

Did you know that the wizard has now been exposed!

But in the end, these words were not spoken, but they were held in the bottom of their hearts.

Times have indeed begun to change, but because of the huge inertia that preceded it, it may be many years before these wizards really feel it.

Anthony stood where he was, staring blankly at the golden dome of the Ministry of Magic, his head buzzing.

Suddenly, there was a piercing accordion sound in his ears.

With a magnetic emphasis, a kind of song under the dust of history interlaced with flashing lights sounds.

Come gather 'round people Wherever you roam。 (Wherever you roam, please come together)

And admit that the waters. Around you have grown.

(Admit it, the surrounding floodwaters have begun to rise)

And accept it that soon. You'll be drenched to the bone.

If your time to you. Is worth savin'

Then you better start swimmin'.

Or you'll sink like a stone

For the times they are a-changin'.
