From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Chapter 532: Arson Case of Magical Congress

"quiet!"

In the Woolworth Building, the headquarters of the Magical Congress of the United States of America, a chaotic meeting was going on.

People in the American magic community probably never imagined that a meeting that determines the future direction of the entire American magic world would be held so casually.

In addition to not using magic to attack each other, the wizards present used almost any method they could imagine to attack their opponents. This made the leader of the Magic Congress at the top shout out in order to keep the meeting going.

"quiet!!!"

The voice amplified by magic suppressed the noise at the scene, allowing the president of the Magic Congress to finally express his thoughts.

"So, Representative of Ilvermorny, the accusation we have here is that... you have added too many dark magic-related parts to the curriculum of the new school year, and witnesses have pointed out that you..."

He angrily accused Bertha, who was huddled there with a bewildered look on her face. Bertha's body curled up even more, and it seemed that she was not qualified for the position of Ilvermorny's representative at all.

'Is it really possible? ’

Bertha was still a little distracted at the moment - Merlin's beard, she used to be just a little assistant who could be scolded at will, let alone such an occasion, even if it was her turn to get coffee, because she was always It's a mistake...

"Lady Bertha, what do you mean by your silence? Are you acquiescing to the accusations?"

Seeing Bertha's silence, the Chairman of the Magic Congress above became even more aggressive. He was having a very bad time during this period - the high unemployment rate, soaring prices, occasional attacks, and the proliferation of smuggling were all mentioned. It was all put on his head, making him very anxious.

‘What does it have to do with me! It's obvious that the Auror group of losers occupies the best position, but they can't find anything. Moreover, with the descendants of those twelve families managing it, the Magic Congress can't get involved at all! ’

The first generation of Twelve Aurors are of course worthy of respect, but until now, orders from the Magic Congress have to go through the hands of the Director of the Auror Office before they can be implemented. The striker's side is even more stuffed with wine and food bags. Until now, the Aurors He, the chairman of the Magic Congress, didn't even know the number of strikers who died in the raid!

"Excuse me, Mr. Chairman, we admit that we have added black magic parts to the school's curriculum, but these are not without precedent. During that failed exchange, we learned about the teachings of other schools. model, thereby rectifying the curriculum in the school.”

Just when Bertha became more nervous, the councilor representing the horned water snake in the school began to speak up - Ilvermorny has a total of five seats, one for the principal and one for each of the four deans. "

"This is an exchange of advanced experiences learned. Durmstrang, who teaches dark magic in the course, easily achieved excellent results in actual combat in the Triwizard Tournament. It is obvious to all."

When she retorted, she glanced at Bertha with envy - this cowardly guy actually got such favor just because he proved his loyalty...

"In addition, regarding the employment rate issue that the chairman just criticized, Ilvermorny School has done a lot of work during this period. Our acting principal, Ms. Bertha, has taken the initiative to invite some breeding farms and shops to the school to check results and sign contracts, and to sign contracts for aspiring students. We have provided a series of measures such as interest-free entrepreneurial relief funds to students, contacted the overseas magic community, and visited unemployed students many times. The hard work involved is obvious to all..."

She expressed Bertha's busy schedule in a very fast tone, emphasizing the efforts of the school and the excellence of recent graduates, and used various examples to prove it - those shops and breeding farms, etc. The unwillingness of places to provide more positions is not because the students have less knowledge or the school is uncooperative. It is entirely because the current environment in the wizarding world is too chaotic, which makes them unwilling and unable to recruit more employees.

To put it simply, it’s not that our students are bad, it’s that there is too much chaos in the magical world, which has led to the problem of soaring unemployment.

This response certainly made the chairman of the Magic Congress very unhappy, but he couldn't say anything other than being very unhappy.

It was not just the representative member of the Horned Water Serpent Academy who pointed at his nose and criticized him, but the entire Ilvermorny and the members of Ilvermorny united. They used various methods to show that the current magic The parliament is really bad and can't accomplish anything except spending a lot of money.

As several parties intertwined, the entire Magic Council started arguing again. Leather shoes, water glasses, gloves, etc. flew in the air, and the entire venue turned into a big pot of porridge.

'Ruined…'

The Chairman of the Magic Congress closed his eyes in despair - the election is coming soon, but with the current situation, let alone whether he will be re-elected, there is no telling whether he will be held accountable...

He is not a member of the Twelve Auror Family. Although there has been no precedent for the Magic Congress to hold the Chairman of the Congress accountable before, but what if - when Grindelwald almost flipped the lid over, wasn't he planning for the entire Magic Congress to come forward? Taking the blame and waiting to face accusations from the entire wizarding world?

A few months ago, he happily cooperated with a group of parliamentarians to bring down the principal of Ilvermorny to show off the majesty of his own Magical Congress. At that time, he thought that the authority of the Magical Congress under his rule had reached a new level. At such a high level, it would be easy for him to be re-elected, and he is even expected to become an important turning point in history.

‘I was supposed to bring a generation of peace, why did things suddenly deteriorate like this? ’

He was a little puzzled, but several proposals from Ilvermorny had been passed noisily. After some concessions, the most important proposal regarding Ilvermorny receiving more funds to support students choosing to work was passed. , and several other irrelevant things were not blocked.

Then came the request from the Auror Office - the Auror Office requested that the Magic Congress completely lift the ban on Unforgivable Curses and legally and reasonably allow them to use all magic for combat searches.

This is not the most outrageous thing. What is even more outrageous is that they demand that restrictions on Muggle Legilimency be opened so that they can get more clues to track down the Purifiers who have been hiding among Muggles.

"Absolutely not!"

"The Unforgivable Curse is okay, but searching the memories of Muggles will cause other magical worlds to accuse us. This is extremely easy to violate the secrecy law and expose our existence!"

"It is strictly forbidden to relax control over Auror spellcasting!"

After the Auror Office proposal came out, the entire Magic Congress almost exploded!

If you can't find out that the attack is your fault, are you investigating Muggle memories? What a joke! The International Secrecy Law strictly prohibits this kind of thing from happening on a large scale. One or two people are fine, but it is open to all members. Let alone the extremely bad follow-up impact of the Salem Witch Trials that year, what about the concentrated resistance from the rest of the wizarding world?

This is not the British magical world that just defeated the mysterious man more than ten years ago. It can be said with confidence that the people cannot be deprived of their right to celebrate. If they, the MPs, pass such an outrageous resolution, then it is not like the MPs cannot be replaced...

The general election is about to begin, who would be so stupid as to make such a mistake!

If you can't find out, you loser Aurors should be patient and check. Today we are relaxing the restrictions on Muggle memory retrieval. I'm afraid we won't be retrieving wizards' memories tomorrow. Dream on!

The Auror Office's proposal had been fussing for a long time, but in the end it only relaxed the restrictions on the Unforgivable Curses, and then added a little more funding, and the rest were all rejected.

Despite serious protests from the Auror Councilors, it was to no avail and the meeting continued...

——

"cheers."

Voldemort raised his glass, and all the Death Eaters raised their glasses proudly.

They are celebrating this great victory.

It wasn't in the parliament, but a sneak attack - they found out where the Aurors were trained, and then killed eight Auror trainees.

"We have also determined the home addresses of the rest of them. The information at Ivermorny School is very complete."

A Death Eater with a scar on his face said in a humble tone - although they knew roughly who had joined the Aurors, they had never made use of the detailed and outrageous information in the school.

In other words, when they use it, they always use the parts of the information that are least likely to be noticed - the student's personality, what they are good at...

As for the address, the Dark Lord strictly prohibited them from using it to prevent the source of these information from being exposed.

"Very good, very good."

Voldemort nodded, the red light in his eyes flashing under the flames, "Is the most radical kid still there?"

"Yes, according to your instructions, we deliberately kept him here."

"That's... great, he's the most suitable, isn't he?"

Voldemort's eyes became extremely hot, "Let the news from the Parliament ferment for a while, and then reduce the trapping and attacks on Aurors, and start destroying the production of several necessary potion materials, so that the prices will rise again."

"Keep waiting, until that day it's almost over."

——

"This won't work, and that won't work either!"

Nick Jack complained angrily to his companions.

They were working almost overtime during this period. There were attacks everywhere and cases everywhere, but no one could be arrested.

Disapparating is just too convenient, and their opponents are masters of it.

If a wizard who is good at apparation intends to cause sabotage, there is really no way to arrest him unless he guesses their intentions, ambush them in advance, or has three times more manpower.

Now the entire magical world is accusing Aurors of their inaction, and the strikers who were supposed to block the guns have now admitted without hesitation that they are the team responsible for dealing with minor disputes, the purifiers, etc., who are responsible for attacking Aurors. They just can't cope.

"Those cowards!"

Nick cursed fiercely.

Although their Aurors usually evaluate those batters like this and have never looked at them directly, the fact that those batters just started to attack when things happened is really disgusting.

"Striker... we can't expect more. This magical world still needs us after all."

"Haha - forget it, you need us? If you don't give us this right, don't give that right, why investigate? Everyone knows that those people must be disguised as Muggles and hiding, but the people from the Magic Congress actually strictly prohibited us from investigating. Muggles!"

He complained, and his companions responded.

The Magical Congress does not know that they, the Aurors, still know how many colleagues have died during this period, especially when the training base was discovered, which caused the Auror trainees who were training...

"We should try to drag those congressmen over here! They can't do anything except hold meetings and quarrel over there!"

Nick cursed fiercely, then went back and began to disguise himself until most people could not recognize him, and then left the Ministry of Magic disguised as a striker - this was necessary, especially in this situation.

After get off work, and in a bad mood, Nick decided to go have a drink. He had a favorite Muggle pub, which occasionally sold special items.

Although he usually didn't like that, but in the current situation, if not, he doubted that he would be able to control his mentality of insulting those pig-like congressmen.

"Relax for a moment...just relax for a moment."

He walked to the bar as usual and started to order something special.

Ten minutes later, when his whole body relaxed, he suddenly smelled the danger coming.

'Wand, wand! How did they know, how did they find out? ’

Random thoughts rushed out very quickly in front of the out-of-control will, but they were quickly interrupted by the whispered spell.

"The soul leaves the body."

As he uttered this curse, which was also taboo in the wizarding world, Nick lay on the spot.

"Huh... I thought this Auror would make us put in some effort... This is what happened?"

"Yeah, luckily we brought five times the manpower to complete this task."

"Keep your voice down. The things arranged by that adult must be completed first. This boy is of great use...pretend not to know him, let him continue drinking, and let everything go smoothly, otherwise you will know."

Soon, Nick returned to his seat as if everything was normal, enjoying more alcohol and more.

——

"I was... suddenly attacked..."

"Damn it, I don't want it, I don't want it..."

"Don't burn, don't burn..."

Nick felt that there was a very nice voice in his head, but he subconsciously didn't want to listen to it.

But... I'm really, really tired...

Just do it?

Just do it?

Just listen to it, just do it, finish it, and then you can...

"don't want!"

When Nick suddenly woke up and was halfway free from the Imperius Curse, he remembered what happened before and noticed that he had been deliberately released from the spell.

But, it's too late.

The fierce fire that made his soul tremble had burned to the point that he couldn't control it, and he had released it himself. He saw the building of the Magic Congress burning under the fierce fire he had released, and looked at the people who were hurriedly rushing out. The wizard looked at the panicked crowd.

"I am innocent!!!"

He just tried to shout such words, but found that it was impossible. He had already raised his wand unconsciously.

More than a dozen spells struck from afar, swallowing up his life easily.
