HP's Platinum Temptation

"What are you talking about? Don't change the subject!" Lucius said with a straight face.

"Isn't I talking about our topic? I said that the two alliances should be merged, and the command should be unified. In order to deal with possible wars, we should train fighters. Then you think that it is enough to maintain the competitive relationship between the two alliances. You don't want to be pure The Blood Alliance is controlled by me and has become the help for the Lambert family to become king. Since we can't convince each other with words alone, we should rely on fists. Isn't wizard duel very common? The live-action duel system recently developed by the Violet Alliance has already After testing, it has basically been perfected, and it is capable of this job. The two alliances each send out their own battle wizard teams, and whoever wins will listen to whoever wins. Anyway, we have to cooperate, so we should be more thorough. If the wizards of the Pure Blood Alliance win, you It will be able to successfully annex the Violet Alliance, isn't this a very tempting way, or do you have no confidence in the wizards who have experienced wars in the Pure Blood Alliance?" Clarence re-elucidated himself very quickly. intention of.

"This is a big gamble, it's too childish, we must be cautious—" Lucius responded in a low voice.

"Child's play? Truth, isn't it because of absolute strength that the Dark Lord can control you? If you want to bet, you can bet big, and win or lose. You can discuss the details slowly, and there is no rush to agree on the details now. You and Pureblood Let's discuss it with the members of the alliance. I think you will agree with my proposal. However, before that, I request the removal of barriers in the commercial field. The domestic market for wizards is not big. If you want to fight for the market, or If resources are monopolized, then everyone will not benefit.”

"Business is possible, but we have reservations about the Muggle elements you advocate. We don't need Muggle things." Lucius finally agreed to a series of business and trade requirements, and agreed on the team duel competition. Proposal to seek advice from the Pure Blood Alliance.

Clarence was in a pretty bad mood because of his relationship problems.After confirming that the content of the cooperation has been basically negotiated, he rejected the itinerary of staying overnight and left Malfoy Manor ahead of schedule.Before leaving, Clarence looked at Lucius and persuaded him seriously: "You should seriously understand the current political, economic and military strength of Muggles. Seeing is believing."

For the Violet Alliance, Mr. Winter's trip to Malfoy Manor can be regarded as a successful completion of the mission.Not only was it really as expected, but a cooperation contract with the Pure Blood Alliance was obtained through the Malfoy family.It even gave everyone a great opportunity to merge the Pure Blood Alliance.In the minds of ordinary coalition members, Mr. Winter's leadership is growing.After learning about the general situation of the bet, the five high-level families of the Violet Alliance agreed that it was a good opportunity.If it succeeds, it will change in one fell swoop the impression that the Violet Alliance is weak in terms of combat effectiveness in the minds of most wizards.If it fails, several family patriarchs headed by Mr. List agree that there is no such possibility.

However, for the high-level core figures headed by Clarence's family, Clarence, who ended his trip early, brought not only good news, but also extremely abnormal low pressure.

While the Inner Family patriarchs didn't all know who Mr. Winter really was, that didn't in any way spare them from Clarence's low pressure.

Originally, Clarence only planned to visit Malfoy Manor during the Easter holiday.But Clarence returned to Lambert Manor a full day earlier than the agreed time, and was obviously in a very gloomy mood.Afterwards, Clarence asked Yvette to arrange the key to the cross-border door non-stop, and took Mrs. Collins and Yvette to France after only resting at home for a day.For the rest of the Easter break, Clarence basically stayed in France.Only returned to Lambert Manor one day before school started.

According to Yvette after Clarence returned to school, Clarence not only went to France this time, but also went to Belgium, and directly turned the local control center of the Violet Alliance into a mess. What a big move.Most of the European alliance members met Mr. Winter for the first time, and without exception, they left a terrifying impression.

Clarence's unusually clear mood made the five family leaders, including the family, very puzzled.Shouldn't you be happy when the cooperation is reached?

Everyone asked Clarence if something unpleasant happened in Malfoy Manor.But Clarence said nothing, and the only response was silence.

Then, after Clarence returned to school, the low pressure swept over the students of Slytherin House at the same time.Everyone found that Mr. Chief, who is always smiling, is not much different from before at first glance, but as long as you get close to him, you will find that the other party is obviously not in a good mood, so you can almost describe Claren with a fierce look. It's gone.The person at the center of the low pressure seems to be oblivious to this.

After such a situation was reported to Mr. Hall by Dana, Mr. Hall and Mr. McClear, who did not know that Clarence was equal to Mr. Winter, could obviously guess this fact.

Clarence thought he was covering it up pretty well, until Theodore called him to the office for a chat, exposing his misunderstanding.

"Come back from the Easter holiday, your whole aura is not right. Now not only those around you in Slytherin House feel it, but even some members of the Violet Society feel it." Theodore rarely poses For the attitude of the Hogwarts classroom, he brought Clarence to the office to talk: "What's the matter with you, hurry up and tell the truth. Don't hurt the innocent again." Theodore said angrily.

"I didn't really—" Clarence said stiffly, but was immediately interrupted by Theodore.

"Nonsense, the whole world can see that you are in a bad mood. Don't harm the Violet Society if you are fine. This is my effort." Theodore complained.

"Well, I'm really not happy, just let me stay by myself for a while. I'll pay more attention when I get back." Clarence sighed.

"I didn't go back to the manor during the holidays, but I heard that your grades were good this time. After two days in Malfoy manor, the cooperation that Dad and the others had not completed before was reached. Haven't the two alliances opened up recently? Many shops of the Pure Blood Alliance have also signed contracts to enter the Mahiona area. Dad also said that if the competition can be successful, the result will be even better. Judging from the above information, shouldn’t you be happy? Isn’t it Because you quarreled with Mr. Malfoy?" Theodore asked a little gossip: "Did you get along well? I thought your relationship should be pretty good."

Clarence showed a very depressed expression: "Why would you ask me if I have a good relationship with him? I thought you would object like Dad and Taylor."

"I have nothing to object to. I don't know Mr. Malfoy. To me, basically whoever you are looking for is just looking for a stranger. Is there any difference? As for gender, didn't I already know that you don't like women?" Are you done?" Theodore spread his hands: "Taylor and I were discussing it two days ago. It took the entire alliance a year to do something that you didn't do. You only met with Mr. Malfoy a few times. It succeeded. If there is any difference between you and the rest of the Violet League, it is probably because of your emotional offensive. So Taylor and I agree that you should have pursued Mr. Malfoy. But Taylor did not dare to As a result of our discussion, we told Dad that he might react too violently."

"I have nothing to do with him other than being the leaders of the two alliances." Clarence said helplessly, "Don't make wild guesses."

"Oh? Isn't it? Aren't you pursuing him?" Theodore asked curiously: "Yvette has revealed a few details about your meeting with me and Terrence, and she has heard you confess your love to him .”

"Uh, I was pursuing him, but it didn't work." Clarence shook his head to himself: "And now I'm going to give up my plan to pursue him."

"Hey, why? Don't you like him a lot?"

"Yeah, but it doesn't feel right? I suddenly realized that I didn't know him much, and then I said I liked him and started pursuing him. In fact, it was just my own wishful thinking. He might not be what I thought." Clarence His tone became a little frustrated.

"Understood? Your relationship problem is actually so profound. Don't most people like each other because of their looks first? Like and then pursue. After getting together, you will gradually understand. Finally, if you find it is not suitable, you will separate. That's not the case. Is it? I think most students fall in love like this." Theodore shrugged: "But if Dad knows that you have given up, he will probably be very happy."

"Haha, that's right, Dad will probably be very happy. How about you, how do you feel?" Clarence's frustration turned into a wry smile.

"I've said it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, no matter who is with you, I don't think anyone can pull out your palm. But looking at you like this, it's obvious that you still like Mr. Malfoy." Odo said very casually, rolled his eyes, and thought of something: "Ah, but I remember that Taylor seemed to say that he once overheard his parents discussing in private, thinking that if you really can only accept men, you can consider Matching you and Jeffrey. Haha, I laughed when I heard that."

"Because Jeffrey obviously likes Daphne, right?" Clarence also showed a slight smile.

"Yes, and many people in our agency like Jeffrey. Of course, many people also like you. But you are busy, so you probably haven't been caught confessing your love?" The more he thought about it, the happier he was. The smile on his face grew brighter.

"Really? What about you, how is your relationship?" Clarence asked casually.

Theodore's smile instantly froze on his face, and something flashed in his mind made him show a slightly disgusted expression.Then, this expression was replaced by embarrassment and annoyance, and he stared at Clarence, who had obviously improved his mood: "You really know, don't you?"
