Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

In an instant, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence. The Death Eaters held their breath, and even their breathing became heavy. Everyone slowly turned their heads to see who dared to make an inappropriate sound at this time.

Voldemort's gaze fell on Lucius, his crimson eyes narrowed slightly, and his slender fingers slowly stroked the shaft of the Elder Wand, as if he was thinking about something.

The silence lasted for several seconds. Finally, he spoke slowly in a voice without any warmth: "Lucius, do you have any good ideas? Why not speak them out so that everyone can hear them?"

Upon hearing this, Lucius immediately leaned forward slightly and replied in his usual respectful manner: "Master, although there are some villains who act in the name of Death Eaters, this incident is not entirely a bad thing."

"No matter who makes the move, it is the reputation of the Death Eaters that will be made known in the end."

"This battle has allowed everyone to see our strength, and has made those who once looked down on us realize that they underestimated us and your greatness, Master."

“Oh?” Voldemort stared at Lucius, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. “From what you said, many people did not recognize Death Eaters before, and did not recognize my reputation?”

Hearing this, Lucius lowered his head even more: "Master, I dare not deceive you. When I first expanded my influence overseas, I did encounter many people who looked down on us."

"I'm in charge of France. The situation there is better. Most people have heard of the master's reputation, but..."

Lucius hesitated, as if he was afraid to say the rest of the words.

“Speak!” Voldemort said coldly, “Lucius, just speak, I won’t blame you.”

"Thank you for your kindness," Lucius bowed again, "Many people in France have heard of your reputation, but they don't approve of my recruitment. Some even threatened..."

"They even said they had no interest in staying on the island with us...playing house..."

As soon as the words fell, the entire conference room was shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere. Everyone felt as if they were being stared at by a deadly poisonous snake, feeling as if they might lose their lives at any time.

play house?!

interesting!

Is this how the world evaluates me?

A nameless anger suddenly rose in Voldemort's heart, and he wished he could just go over and kill all these shameless guys.

What do these stupid things know? Unless we deal with Dumbledore, there is no point in moving forward.

Grindelwald used to have considerable power, but after he lost to Dumbledore, the power under his command was quickly wiped out.

Steady and steady is the way to go!

"Master! I have already taught those ignorant scum a lesson," Lucius did not dare to neglect and shouted loudly, "They are all scums mixed in various black markets, just like those scums in Knockturn Alley before, they have no knowledge."

"Of course, some of the pure-blood families there are knowledgeable. Faced with my recruitment, they joined our team without any hesitation. They also contributed the most to the capture of Gringotts this time."

"They may have their own plans and want to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits from Gringotts, but their respect for their master is real."

Seeing Voldemort raise his right hand, Lucius immediately fell silent, sat there obediently, and watched Voldemort begin to look around.

"The situation Lucius just described is very interesting. I want to ask everyone, have you ever encountered a similar situation?"

The people at the long table exchanged glances imperceptibly and lowered their heads tremblingly. This topic was too sensitive and they really didn't dare to say anything more.

Seeing that no one took the initiative to speak, Voldemort showed a sarcastic smile and immediately began to call the roll: "Yaxley, how is the situation over there?"

Yaxley shuddered all over and immediately lowered his head and said, "Master, the situation in the United States was not optimistic at the beginning. Since the headmaster of Ilvermorny died at your hands, most of the local forces hated us. Only some insightful families took the initiative to respond to my recruitment."

"Of course, such a small matter is not worth bothering the master. I can handle it myself. Besides, since Dumbledore died at the hands of my colleagues, the voices of opposition from that side have basically been unheard of."

"So, as Lucius said, this attack on Gringotts is indeed an opportunity for us to demonstrate our strength."

Voldemort didn't say anything, and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry. He just turned his head and looked at Karkaroff beside him.

"Master," Karkaroff smiled flatteringly, "Austria is very stable, and I hardly hear any bad news. The people involved in the Gringotts incident are also very active. After we successfully took down Gringotts, more people contacted me and wanted to join our team."

"So, what Lucius said makes sense. This time we have really made a name for ourselves and let people all over the world see how powerful we are."

Seeing that Voldemort had no intention of refutation, many Death Eaters spoke up, describing the benefits of this display of force to the wizarding world.

"Master," Lucius took the initiative to speak, "I have some good news. The werewolves are scared. Before I came, they took the initiative to contact me and wanted to join your army."

Werewolf?

Snape glanced at Lucius imperceptibly.

That's what happened. Voldemort asked Yaxley to recruit Dementors and McNeill to recruit giants, and Lucius's mission was to subdue werewolves.

However, now the werewolves are basically under Sebastian's command, and Lucius's mission has made no progress. This has also caused his status among the Death Eaters to become lower and lower. Later, he was driven to France by Voldemort to develop his power.

However... considering Sebastian's character, there should be no possibility for those werewolves to escape from his control. Is there something fishy going on here?

Hearing that the werewolf was willing to surrender, Voldemort looked at Lucius and asked with interest.

"Lucius, the werewolves' surrender is indeed good news. However, I remember that those werewolves are all Sebastian's men. Are you sure they are sincere in surrendering?"

"Master, the person who contacted me was Old Pete, the director of Wolf Herb Garden. Before this, no matter how much I offered him a gift, he remained unmoved."

"However, after the fall of Gringotts around the world, he took the initiative to contact me and expressed a strong desire to surrender. I can't be sure whether he is sincere. After all, I don't have the ability to see through people's hearts like you, Master. But I can really feel that he is very scared."

"Master, our team has grown stronger, so I need your instructions. Should we continue to accept the surrender of these werewolves?"
