The Charles Becomes a Wizard

After these words were spoken, not only Dumbledore but even Lucius, who was about to start a fight, was stunned.

No one present expected that he would be the first to speak.

This Hufflepuff-born school director and the family behind him are absolutely neutral forces. Although he does not have a strong presence among the other school directors, he is smooth and tactful, always has a smile on his face, and will not easily offend anyone.

During the years when Voldemort was at the height of his power, Lucius had been sent to deal with this man several times. As far as he knew, the Order of the Phoenix had also sent people to win him over, but the old man had the ability to lead his family to remain neutral under such circumstances. The most important thing was that neither side of the enemy took its anger out on him.

You have to know that Voldemort's behavior was close to insanity in the later period, but he still didn't attack their family.

This kind of ability is not something that ordinary people can learn.

But now, he actually said this to Dumbledore in front of so many school directors...

"Evans, my friend, you know that's not what I meant." Dumbledore was stunned for a moment and then spoke.

"Did you just say what was in your heart carelessly?" Lucius saw the opportunity to fan the flames.

"Dumbledore, you should know exactly what you mean." The school director known as "Evans" certainly knew that Lucius did it on purpose, but he still couldn't suppress his anger.

He came to attend the board meeting this time just to follow the crowd and make up the numbers, and never thought of removing Dumbledore from his position.

He did not take seriously the "evidence of Dumbledore embezzling public funds" handed to him by Lucius. He just thought that the group of people headed by Malfoy were unwilling to settle down and had come up with some new ideas to undermine Dumbledore's reputation.

Are you kidding? That's Dumbledore! Dumbledore, the man of high moral integrity who is willing to do anything for peace in the wizarding world!

How could someone like him do such a shameful thing as embezzling public funds?

......He refused to believe it until he saw the account book with his own eyes.

Of course, after reading the account book, he instinctively made excuses for Dumbledore in his heart, thinking that he must have some difficulties...

At least Dumbledore's love for Hogwarts was not fake. No matter how chaotic the outside world was over the years, he did protect the safety of the young wizards.

But the words that Dumbledore had just blurted out once again gave him a punch in the face, ruthlessly shattering his self-righteousness.

He suddenly realized that this great White Devil seemed to have regarded the entire Hogwarts as his own backyard, and the young wizards in the castle as part of his plan to "protect the wizarding world" and strike against his opponents.

This discovery made him unable to bear it, so his words became particularly impolite.

"What comes out of your mouth subconsciously is often the truth."

"I just want to emphasize this," the old man looked at Dumbledore deeply and slowly exhaled, "Hogwarts is a school. These children should have a relatively simple living environment instead of being involved in these messy calculations between adults in advance."

Dumbledore showed a wry smile on his face and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Lucius.

"Mr. Potter happens to be here, and I think we still have a score to settle with Mr. Dumbledore." The exquisitely crafted snake staff was placed on Harry's shoulder.

His words once again gave Dumbledore a bad feeling.

"After all, the Malfoys and the Potters are relatives. Since Mr. Potter is the only one left in the Potter family," Lucius laughed softly, "then as an elder, I have to ask him, when will the property that Mr. Dumbledore is keeping for you be returned?"

......

Slytherin common room.

"Charles, Charles, what do you think Scarhead will do?" asked Draco, who was sitting on the sofa.

After Draco had clearly protested to Lucius about Voldemort, Lucius no longer hid many things from him.

So Draco knew that his father was going to cause trouble in the name of the savior at today's school board meeting.

"Him?" Charles threw the dice in his hand. "He can't do anything."

The two dice rolled on the table a few times and then stopped.

"Seven o'clock." Charles moved the little man representing himself forward seven spaces. "It's your turn."

"How is that possible?" Draco opened his eyes wide, not caring about the game anymore.

"You mean..."

"I don't think he will ask Dumbledore to return the property." Ciel picked up the dice and handed them to Draco. "It's your turn."

"Okay, okay," Draco casually rolled the dice. "Three."

"That's all the Potter family's property! Is he willing to give it away for nothing?"

When the Potter family was at its strongest, they could rival the Malfoy family! Even though they fell into decline later, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and they definitely left behind more than a little bit!

"What can I do if I'm unwilling?" Seeing that Draco's mind was no longer on the game, Charles simply gave up on this game and just played with the dice in his hand.

It is better to concentrate when playing games, otherwise you won’t feel any sense of accomplishment even if you win.

"Judging from the speed at which our White Wizard spends money, let's not talk about how much of his property will be left. What if he still has some?"

"Does Harry have what it takes to get Dumbledore back?"

"Will he be able to keep it after I give it back to him?"

"A child with a lot of money but little ability is a fat piece of meat in the eyes of many people. Those who are interested can find countless ways to make him disappear silently."

Just like when I escaped from that disgusting place and inherited the Phantomhive family...

If it weren't for Sebastian, let alone revenge, he would have died in that bloody night, and even his body would have turned into a handful of light ashes.

"But I can't..." Although it wasn't his own gold Galleons, Draco still felt sad when he thought about it.

What a thank you!

"If he is smart enough, he will take the initiative to propose to "donate" all his property to the Order of the Phoenix." Ciel smiled, "in exchange for Dumbledore's training and protection for him."

"And he has seen that remnant soul with his own eyes. Who else in the entire wizarding world, except Dumbledore, can protect him from that person?"

"Property and other things are not as important as your own life, right?"

"Would you offend a person who can protect you just for a fortune you don't know if you can get?"

"I don't think he would do anything so stupid."
