The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 673 Warning from the International Federation of Wizards

"Tell me, what's the problem."

Link said calmly.

Hearing this, the giant beast wrapped around Old Barty seemed to have received the order. It wiped its saliva with its paws and returned to Link's side with some reluctance.

This made Old Batty feel very relieved and said:

"As I mentioned before, civilian enthusiasm for joining the military is very high, and this is the same for Knockturn Alley and Hogwarts. For now, there are a large number of people with dark wizard backgrounds. And underage wizards also want to join the striker and Auror troops. As for their disposal, we think we still need you to make a decision."

Link did not answer immediately, but leaned back on the soft chair and rubbed a wand in his hand.

That wand was Snape's relic.

It had been completely damaged by the battle at Hogwarts that night, but now it appeared intact in Link's hands.

Following the movements in Link's hand, the previously ferocious giant beast now looked like a puppy, beating along with the swing of the wand, looking very excited and joyful.

This made old Batty's heart beat a little faster.

He is not someone who has never seen the world.

As early as the first time the giant beast's shadow appeared, he had already recognized the essence of the other party's purely cursed magic power aggregate.

But now, Link has not only cultivated a certain degree of self-awareness with his cursed magic power.

It can even be made to show such strong attachment and obedience. What kind of terrifying strength is this?

"When the dark wizards in Knockturn Alley have not yet joined the war, you can just reject their application. They will not dare to disobey. As for Hogwarts, we only allow sixth- to seventh-year students to join the strikers. Troops and become quasi-strikemen. In addition, an order was issued that if this group of people want to join, they must obtain the consent of their guardians. Those who do not have a guardian must obtain Dumbledore's approval."

Link's voice sounded again.

Old Barty quickly recovered from his random thoughts and silently repeated Link's words in his mind several times. He nodded after making sure that he had memorized everything.

He wasn't too surprised by Link's decision.

As the 'big barracks' of the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China, Hogwarts will definitely participate in the war.

This has been an alliance between the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts for hundreds of years.

It was quite merciful that Link did not forcefully recruit all the students in Hogwarts to participate in the war like he did during the last Goblin War.

As for Knockturn Alley.

Not to mention that.

With Link taking over the Ministry of Magic and the Foley family's increasing expansion, Knockturn Alley has long been said to be the Foley family's private territory.

Whether or not to allow those dark wizards to join the war was just a matter of Link's words. No one in Knockturn Alley dared to go against Link's will.

But now Link has temporarily rejected the application of the group of dark wizards to participate in the war, which makes old Barty feel relieved a lot.

Those dark wizards were really cruel.

If they really want to be thrown into France as regular troops, I am afraid that the morale of other troops will also be ruined.

By that time, the international image of the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China may really become a 'dark wizard' regime.

"Then, the last question, Mr. Foley." Old Barty's expression became extremely serious, "Will Dumbledore take action in this war?"

"You asked a redundant question."

"Sorry, Mr. Foley, we are just a little uneasy. After all, Dumbledore has never expressed his attitude in this regard."

"That's because there is absolutely no need for him to express his position." Link narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If your home was destroyed and your family was killed, would you hold back from taking revenge? So, honestly Put your heart back in your belly.”

Old Batty's hanging heart was indeed put back into his stomach.

He actually didn't expect Dumbledore to follow them into battle like a big soldier.

It's just that a legendary wizard with such an unclear attitude expected to remain motionless in the rear during the war was a bit too scary.

If Dumbledore really has other thoughts, he may be able to wipe out the entire Ministry of Magic in one fell swoop with a single attack, and then take over himself.

So he just wanted Dumbledore to be honest and stop causing trouble.

And now based on what Link said, Dumbledore probably not only didn't want to cause trouble, but he might even fight alongside them at the critical moment.

This is perfect!

If two wizards of legendary rank join forces, they might be able to level the French Ministry of Magic, right?

Just imagining the scene at that time made old Barty a little excited, and finally there was a smile on his face, and he saluted Link and said:

"That way, I feel relieved. And the International Federation of Wizards should no longer have the confidence to stop us."

"International Federation of Wizards?"

"Yes, they have been sending communication requests here since four hours ago, but they have all been ignored by us. Do you want to answer it now?"

Link nodded and said:

"Answer it, I want to hear what they want to say too."

After hearing this, Old Batty stepped back with a smile and began to prepare the communication work himself.

Soon a huge full-length double-sided mirror was pushed in front of Link.

The clouds and mist inside were billowing and blurry.

But soon, after magic power was instilled in it, the picture gradually became clear, and finally the familiar face of Old Harris, the elder of the International Federation of Wizards, was formed.

"Good afternoon, my dear Lord Link Foley. It's a pleasure for us to meet again. It's an honor."

Old Harris said politely as soon as he appeared.

This formulaic greeting etiquette should have the function of making people feel like a spring breeze and at the same time feel the noble temperament of the greeter.

But now, Link didn't feel anything.

This is not because Link has activated Occlumency, but at this moment, old Harris is only wearing a loose nightgown, his hair is messy, and even his eyes are bloodshot.

It's like I was suddenly pulled out of bed in the middle of the night and have been working until now.

If he says such a greeting with his current dignified appearance, it will only make people laugh.

"You look a little embarrassed, Mr. Harris."

Link said with an unceremonious smile.

"Yes, this is all thanks to your blessing." Old Harris rolled his eyes and said, "If it weren't for the surprise you prepared for me, I should be sitting in the restaurant enjoying the delicious food at this time. Merlin ! Today’s menu is full of my favorite Chinese food. Just thinking about this makes me heartbroken.”

"Then why don't we end the call now? It's a big sin to disturb others while they're dining."

Link finished speaking and waved his hand to signal Old Barty to end the call.

Old Harris was obviously startled when he saw this, and roared in the double-sided mirror. Only then did Old Barty put down the wand he had raised.

After the image in the double-sided mirror returned to stability, the purely ceremonial smile on old Harris' face could no longer be maintained.

His expression was extremely ugly, as if he was about to curse in the next moment.

But in the end he still sighed, stood up and bowed:

"Dear Mr. Commissioner, please accept my most sincere condolences regarding the attack on Hogwarts and the casualties among the students. The International Federation of Wizards shares the grief of those who have lost their relatives and friends in this tragedy."

This is the formal condolences and condolences of the International Federation of Wizards for this incident in the magic world of Yu.

Link has received many similar letters of condolences.

More than a dozen ministries of magic, including the Magical Congress of the United States, the Bulgarian Ministry of Magic, and the Sakurajima Ministry of Magic, all sent voice messages of condolences as soon as the Hogwarts incident occurred.

Among them, the Minister of Magic in Sakurajima cried so much in the letter that it made the parents of the dead children in the Japanese magic world sadder. He also said that he would personally bring people over to mourn on site, but Link refused after scolding him as crazy. .

But formal condolences from the International Confederation of Wizards?

This is a bit strange, right?

In my impression, the group of 'Celestial Dragons' living in the floating city did not have the habit of mourning for others.

Although he had doubts in his heart, Link still stood up and returned the salute to Old Harris.

Old Harris looked much better when he saw this.

He took a cigar and put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep breath and said:

"Now, Link, I just want to ask you to do one thing. Can you take back the declaration of war by the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China against the Ministry of Magic of France? I think we have a better way to solve this matter, just like we Like last time, it would be nice to have a mediation meeting where everyone can sit face to face and have a good talk.

In fact, I won’t hide it from you.

I had already received a call from the French Minister of Magic earlier.

He cried and swore on his own life that what happened at Hogwarts had nothing to do with him or the French Ministry of Magic, and was entirely the work of thugs in the French wizarding world.

But things have happened anyway, so they are still willing to make some humanitarian compensation for this matter.

What do you think of magic materials worth a total of 3000 million gold galleons?

This is already the other party's base price. I shouldn't have told you originally, but if you are willing to negotiate, I am confident that I can help you negotiate this price. "

After saying this, Old Harris winked at Link with his right eye, as if he knew Link very well and had helped Link make a lot of money this time.

But Link remained unmoved and said expressionlessly:

"Very good conditions, but unfortunately I am not a businessman. In addition, I think you should take a closer look at our declaration of war. The target of our declaration of war is never the French Ministry of Magic, but the French Magical Circle, or rather , is Voldemort hiding in the French wizarding world."

"I thought Voldemort and all that was just an excuse for you to declare war. But now, what do you mean, that person is really still alive? In the form of a separated soul? What a madman!"

"Otherwise, why do you think Hogwarts, with Dumbledore in charge, would suffer such huge casualties this time?"

"Yes, you are right. Then I will understand everything." Old Harris sighed, "In that case, if you want to fight, then go ahead. But I want to remind you, Link, "Confidentiality" The Statute of Secrecy is the basis for maintaining balance between wizarding society and Muggle society. You must control the scale of the war. If the Statute of Secrecy is broken due to the progress of the war, you will be subject to double sanctions from the entire wizarding society and Muggle society. , when that time comes..."

Old Harris did not continue speaking. The meaning of some words completely changed when he said them, and he felt that Link should understand the truth behind them.

Humans are social creatures.

A human individual who is ostracized by everyone and refuses any trade or assistance cannot survive.

This is also true for an organization like the Ministry of Magic.

But when Link heard this, his expression didn't change at all.

Only the shadow of the giant beast floating beside him seemed to notice the change in his master's mood, and looked ferociously at the double-sided mirror.

"You can try it."

Link said calmly.

The phantom of the giant beast beside him pounced out, biting the double-sided mirror into pieces.

He has never cared about threats of this nature.

So-called sanctions generally only work when the two sides are equal in strength.

When one party's fist is big enough, this kind of sanctions will seem like useless.

Because the opponent can punch your door open directly.

Such instances have happened many times in Muggle history, especially in a society like the wizarding world where extraordinary power already exists.

And if the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China really defeated and completely absorbed the French Ministry of Magic.

There is no doubt that they will be one of the most powerful wizard organizations on the planet.

At that time, there will be no other sanctions.

The group of 'Celestial Dragons' might take the lead in trying to please Link in an attempt to make a fortune out of the ruins of the French magic world.

"Snapped!"

Link smiled and snapped his fingers.

Old Kled, wearing a pure black Auror uniform, immediately appeared next to him.

Old Barty knew that what happened next was not something he could observe, so he led Newland and Si Gefen out of the office very wisely.

As for Percy, that guy didn't need Old Barty to greet him at all, he had already run away with his legs folded between his legs.

From the looks of it, he must be in a hurry to find the toilet.

Old Batty was not in the mood to laugh at his old rival at this time.

Facing the shadow of the giant beast that just spilled out of Link's body, his performance was no better than Percy's.

And thinking like this, he couldn't help but glanced into the crack in the door again.

He really wanted to see what the old Kled, who had taken command of the Auror troops and was dragging him all day long, looked like when he made a fool of himself.

But after just one glance, he was stunned.

Because instead of being frightened by the giant beast, Old Klei appeared in the office. Instead, he was very happy getting along with the shadow. There was no tension between the two of them when they were present just now.

Old Batty even felt that the ferocious smile on the face of the phantom beast was so similar to Old Kled's smile at the moment.

This gives people the feeling that Old Kled is the same kind as the phantom beast that is completely condensed by cursed magic power.
