Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Sebastian smiled softly as he saw Voldemort disappear cleanly into the Ministry of Magic.

What? Are you scared now?

He was sensible enough not to be so reckless as to challenge both himself and Dumbledore alone.

Looking at the mess around him, Sebastian shook his head.

To be honest, Voldemort's actions today were completely beyond everyone's expectations.

Sebastian never expected that Voldemort would actually go to Ilvermorny and get Slytherin's snakewood staff, which was an epic enhancement.

Moreover, with the snakewood wand, Sebastian's fake wand plan was ruined.

There was no way. Voldemort did not inform anyone about his visit to the American wizarding world this time. Even the many Death Eaters in Malfoy Manor were unaware of the news.

All they knew was that Voldemort was preparing to attack Azkaban and rescue the Death Eaters trapped there.

Unfortunately, Lucius never found an opportunity to pass on the message, and by the time Sebastian received the news, Azkaban had already fallen.

However, the news of Voldemort's attack on Azkaban and the Ministry of Magic made Sebastian realize that there was still a chance to remedy his fake wand plan.

So he returned to Hogwarts at the speed of light, stopped Dumbledore who was going to the Ministry of Magic for reinforcement, and briefly told him about his plan.

There is only one purpose, which is to make Lao Fu give up the snake wood staff and the advantage he has gained.

Thinking of this, Sebastian went straight to Dumbledore and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Headmaster, did You-Know-Who notice your wand?"

"I noticed that," Dumbledore said softly, "In order to cooperate with your plan, I have revealed the Elder Wand to Tom. So, should we find a time to discuss your plan in detail?"

"Okay," Sebastian nodded, "Wait until the vacation is over. During this time, I will perfect some details."

Dumbledore didn't say anything more, but gently waved his wand to put away the still burning wall of fire.

The Aurors came out from behind the cover and looked at Dumbledore with awe and gratitude in their eyes.

"Voldemort has escaped," Amelia whispered. "Thank you for protecting us, Professor Dumbledore."

As she spoke, she looked at the many Aurors and began to issue orders in an orderly manner.

"Notify the heads of all departments and have them come to the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible to prepare for the meeting. Also, notify all media outlets to hold a press conference in one hour."

"The press conference will be held here. Let all media see the cruelty of the mysterious man and make them give up their illusions."

"Also," she looked at Fudge's body and said in a heavy voice, "By the way, let everyone know how Minister Fudge died heroically."

Looking at Fudge lying on the ground, Sebastian's heart was filled with emotion.

After hearing that a mysterious man had broken into the Ministry of Magic, Sebastian thought Fudge would surrender directly to save his life.

After all, judging from Fudge's character, even if all the Aurors died, he should be the one left alive.

However, he never expected that Fudge would die.

Moreover, his death was so resolute that it was impossible to blame him at all - he died for his country in an almost heroic manner at the last moment.

Martyrdom for the country - since ancient times, this has been a top-notch way to die. For example, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty changed everyone's opinion of him because he died for the country.

Seeing Dumbledore waving his wand and tidying up Fudge's dusty robes, Sebastian sighed deeply in his heart.

To be honest, at the beginning, he had no ill feelings towards Fudge. In order to exchange benefits, he even helped Fudge with various suggestions.

However, because of Harry, a rift developed between him and Fudge.

Fudge is greedy for power, and he wants to become the most outstanding Minister of Magic in the history of the wizarding world. Although he has made countless mistakes during his tenure, after today, everything seems to be redefined.

After today, everyone's impression of Fudge will change. No one will blame him anymore, and maybe even a statue will be erected to commemorate him.

From this point of view, Fudge has left a significant mark in the history of magic.

At the critical moment, everything was kept simple. Amelia did not arrange for people to set up the press conference, so when the reporters arrived, what they saw was the scene after a big battle.

"Merlin, what happened?"

"Who's calling? This is the Ministry of Magic!"

"I heard that a mysterious person appeared!"

As soon as the words fell, the reporters gasped.

"Is this true? Didn't they say the mysterious man's return was fake news?"

"Now it seems to be true. Look, Professor Dumbledore and Professor Swann have both appeared."

"I heard that it wasn't just the Ministry of Magic, but You-Know-Who also captured Azkaban and rescued all the Death Eaters."

"Merlin! Things are going to get chaotic again. I've decided to buy a house in Hogsmeade when I get back. Only there can I feel safe."

As they were talking, an hour was up and Amelia reappeared in front of the reporters.

“Dear colleagues, journalist friends, and all those who care about the future of our wizarding community:

I know that many of you saw the devastation in the Ministry's great hall with your own eyes, the shattered marble floors, the toppled fountains and statues, and the smell of devastation in the air.

All of this is telling you that the Dark Lord is back!"

The news was earth-shattering. The reporters were trembling all over. They couldn't even hold the magic cameras in their hands steadily. They didn't dare to breathe and stared at Amelia, waiting for her to continue speaking.

"It is with a heavy heart that I stand before you today to announce that Minister Cornelius Fudge has died heroically while defending the Ministry of Magic.

His last moments showed the fearlessness we should all possess. This fearlessness did not come from the pinnacle of power, but from the responsibility and faith of being the Minister of Magic.

Please allow me to express my deepest condolences to him on behalf of the Ministry of Magic."

What? Minister Fudge died?

The reporters' faces turned pale, and some were so scared that they sat on the ground.

"The return of Voldemort is undoubtedly terrifying, bringing not only violence and death, but also division and despair.

Many people may be confused because of this and even doubt whether hope still exists.

But what I want to tell you is that despair is exactly the weapon that the Dark Lord wants to spread. He wants us to surrender and to be torn apart.

But we must not let his conspiracy succeed and we will never surrender to this madman!"

Amelia looked at the camera with a determined look, not even a hint of backing down.

“Now more than ever, we need unity.

An unbreakable bond must be established between wizards and wizards, and between the Ministry of Magic and every wizard family.

Every Auror, every Ministry employee, every ordinary wizard, the power of each of us will be the cornerstone of resisting darkness.

As long as we walk hand in hand, no black magic can destroy our faith!

After today, the Ministry of Magic will implement a full wartime policy, and we will work closely with Hogwarts, St. Mungo's Hospital and the International Confederation of Wizards to meet this catastrophe together.

Remember, we are not fighting alone. With the help of Professor Dumbledore and Professor Swan, we will be able to defeat the darkness and the mysterious man!"
