Hogwarts: I am Voldemort.

Chapter 379 Bloodlines Act

To see a person is to look at the heart, to listen to the sound.

Among the more than twenty pure-blood family representatives present, none of them were fools.

Therefore, the interesting taste in Voldemort's words quickly made them understand what it meant.

"The Lestrange family agrees." Bella was the first to raise her hand.

"The Malfoy family approves."

Malfoy, who had no time to regret not being the first, followed closely behind to express his opinion.

"The Bock family agrees."

The patriarch of the Bork family, who had been frowning all night, couldn't wait to show his loyalty.

The Mr. Boggin who was punished by Voldemort came from this family.

Families began to express their opinions. Although they were not as uniform as last time, the posture of scrambling to be the first showed more content than the previous statement—Voldemort's influence on these families was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. .

When everyone had expressed their opinions, Voldemort nodded in satisfaction.

"Finally, let's talk about the Black family."

Voldemort had a smile on his face, but not many dared to laugh along with him.

People other than Death Eaters already know that Sirius is not Voldemort's person.

And those among the Death Eaters knew better that although Sirius' younger brother was one of his own, he was an out-and-out traitor.

Compared with the Shaker family and the Prewett family, perhaps this family should be expelled the most.

At least everyone present thought so, except Voldemort.

"The Black family has a long history, and there have been many figures who have had a profound influence on the wizarding world in their family."

Voldemort glanced at Bella, and sure enough, the little guy was looking at him nervously.

Bella, one of the three Black sisters, naturally has a heart for the Black family.

As for Sirius, she didn't care too much - this person has been expelled from the family, and she agrees with this result very much in her heart.

It would make her very sad if the Black family were kicked out of the Holy 28.

However, she didn't want to go against the master's will, or let the master...

In short, Bella, with complicated emotions, looked at Voldemort with complicated eyes.

"I think you are all familiar with the name Phineas Black, yes, he was one of the greatest headmasters of Hogwarts.

"There is also Arcturus Black, who was awarded the Order of Merlin [-]st Class for 'Service to the Ministry of Magic', we can imagine that he must have made an indescribable outstanding contribution."

Voldemort's smiling words let everyone understand his attitude.

This is speaking for the Black family, otherwise Phineas Black would not be one of the greatest headmasters of Hogwarts anyway.

The worst one, though, probably belonged to him.

And Arcturus Black in the back.

If there is one sentence among you who dares to tell the truth, then he will definitely choose that sentence:

Money can buy honor.

Yes, this is how the Merlin First Class Medal came about, as we all know.

"As for the Black family, apart from having these respectable ancestors, the motto on their family crest is exactly what we need.

"Toujours Pur, always pure."

Voldemort said the rise, and even raised his hand for it.

The Death Eaters were very discerning and immediately applauded collectively.

The others didn't disappoint, they mainly wanted to save face for Voldemort, and adding the phrase "forever pure" was indeed right.

After the warm applause, Voldemort stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"The Black family is reserved. I think everyone has no objection to this, but I wonder if you have noticed that the number of pure-blood families is decreasing."

Voldemort's voice became severe and heavy, everyone frowned and nodded involuntarily.

"Besides the reason for the war, part of it is because the heirs, like the Black family, are unwilling to marry."

"Lord Dark Lord, do you have any suggestions for this?" Patriarch Fuli asked.

I haven't seen these people being active before, but when it comes to family continuation, everyone can't wait to speak up.

"Yes, I just want to introduce a bill, which I call the Bloodline Act."

Voldemort's words caused everyone to whisper.

Just by listening to the name, one knows that it has something to do with pure blood, but they don't know the specific content.

"Lord Dark Lord, what are the specific contents of this bill you envisioned?" The patriarch of the McMillan family, who had not spoken all this time, couldn't help but raised his feet and asked.

"The 28 sacred families protect each other, protect each other's family blood, and actively and do everything they can to let the blood of those pure-blood families in trouble continue."

Voldemort directly threw out the answer he had prepared a long time ago, instantly making the long table lively.

They excitedly discussed what Voldemort said, and tried to add something to it:
For example, mutual insurance of property, mutual insurance of castles, and even mutual insurance of education.

Voldemort did not bluntly refuse this, or interrupt their communication.

This so-called bloodline law is exactly the benefit he threw to these families.

Blindly suppressing them will only lead to the loss of people's hearts.

Appropriate appeasement can make these people really unite by their side.

"Mr. Dark Lord."

The representative of the Slughorn family who had been silent all this time - Voldemort's former Potions professor - suddenly spoke, and his calling stopped everyone from discussing.

"You mean, not to kill... kill Sirius?"

Voldemort frowned; he was waiting for someone to ask him that question.

"Yes, Professor Slughorn, that's exactly what I thought."

Voldemort's words made everyone gasp.

You know, not long ago, Sirius was still cursing Voldemort at his innocence meeting.

But now, Voldemort said in public that he would save him from death.

This one in front of him is really that Dark Lord from back then?
"There must be appropriate punishment, but Sirius has the responsibility to continue the excellent blood of the Black family. I will handle this personally, and he will be willing to do that."

What Voldemort said with a smile stunned everyone again.

"Will you... directly participate in this matter?" the head of the Foley family asked in surprise.

"Yes, I will give him an irresistible reason to continue the blood of the Black family." Voldemort nodded.

This made everyone stunned for a moment, but then they expressed their support.

Even, many families who were not close to Voldemort before expressed their willingness to send outstanding children to join the ranks of Death Eaters.

For these people, Voldemort still did not make a promise.

He wants people, but not fools, fools and idiots.

Because he knows that many things are not defeated by the strength of the enemy, but by the pig teammates.

Therefore, his assessment of Death Eaters will only be stricter than before.

The bloodline bill, which had been discussed by everyone for a while, naturally passed smoothly.

And everyone proposed to sign a document with a magic contract on the spot.

Voldemort expressed his support, this is a good opportunity to tie everyone into a thief ship.

You see, there is a name on this document, his name is - Voldemort Gaunt Riddle.
