Hogwarts: I am Voldemort.

418 Triwizard Tournament

During the rash visit that day, neither party revealed their bottom line.

But when leaving, the queen still played some tricks:
She stayed with Dumbledore to talk something privately.

Voldemort did not ask Dumbledore about this.

He thought that Dumbledore's position and wisdom determined his choice.

No matter what the Queen had said to him at the time, he would not have betrayed the wizarding world.

As for asking the old man to fully support him, Voldemort felt that it was unrealistic.

Dumbledore's philosophy is essentially different from his own.

If divided by political factions, Voldemort belongs to the hawks, which is the more extreme group.

Dumbledore is the complete opposite, he is a conservative, and he is the kind of conservative who does not want to take the initiative.

Unless he turned the wizarding world into a mess, the old man would rather hide in Hogwarts and live a life of teaching and educating people as always.

Voldemort also thought it was very good of him, both for himself and himself.

And after the Queen's incident, Voldemort's life really became more leisurely.

He didn't rashly point fingers at the Ministry of Magic, let alone flood the Ministry of Magic with a large number of people.

With the entire wizarding world and the Muggle Crown on his radar, he has focused his efforts on the revamp of Gaunt Castle - which has officially changed its name - from Annick Castle.

It is not an easy task to turn a castle from an ordinary castle into a magic castle.

If it is newly built and has core magic items, like Gunter's library, it is easy.

But like Gaunt Castle, the castle itself has existed for many years, and there is no magic item that can be used as the core of the castle, the transformation process will be extremely difficult.

"Although it is troublesome, it is really exciting."

Hermione, who participated in the castle renovation, blushed with excitement.

The two had discussed the Enchanted Castle when Voldemort was her professor, and Hermione was really excited to be a part of it.

The complete opposite of her is Luna. She and her teacher also moved to Gunter Castle, but she is intoxicated in magic all day long.

In a similar situation, there was Neville.

This kid is as strong as a cow now, practicing magic and swordsmanship by the lake every day. The hard-working Mrs. Longbottom feels distressed when she sees him.

And before the end of the summer vacation, Draco also lived here for a while.

But apart from asking questions about power, he didn't show any interest in learning magic or rebuilding the castle.

In this regard, Voldemort did not force it.

They will be fourth graders when school starts again, and they will be 15 years old.

This age is close to adulthood in the wizarding world, and they have to make their own choices.

In addition to these children, Percy also paid a visit to ask him about the Triwizard Tournament.

"A few more places, or a few more colleges, in short, don't become a game for a few people."

Voldemort gave his own advice, "I think Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is good. Although there is no precedent, we must always try to integrate more wizards and not block ourselves."

Percy fully accepted Voldemort's advice.

Because he was able to get the right to organize this competition, all thanks to the support of Voldemort and Crouch.

Compared with Crouch's selective support, Voldemort can do everything he can.

Almost all the pure-blood nobles, or the power he can radiate, supported Percy on this matter.

Otherwise, with Percy's qualifications, why should he be in charge of such a big business after just entering the Ministry of Magic for a year?
Even if Crouch, who has become a minister, supports it, it is impossible to do it.

Only Voldemort could push him to this position.

"I understand what you mean, teacher, I will send an invitation to the United States."

Percy, who was becoming more and more tactful in his handling of things, agreed decisively, and asked again, "Do you need me to do anything in this competition?"

It wasn't a cryptic question, but Voldemort was fine with it.

Not hidden, because Percy took him as one of his own.

If it is really a hidden question, it means that there is a problem between the two of them.

"I need this Triwizard Tournament to attract the attention of the whole of Europe, and even the entire wizarding world, especially the American side. It is best to let their attention be concentrated here."

Voldemort poked his cane and said, "When necessary, you can even take the initiative to create a little 'injustice', understand?"

Percy thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let their public opinion fully discuss this matter?"

"Yes."

Voldemort nodded in satisfaction. As a student, he can really become a teacher.

"I'll ask Bokis to cooperate with you and try to make this match a global broadcast. Of course, it's just a channel for the wizarding world."

"That's a good idea."

Percy's eyes lit up, and he said, "I've had this idea for a long time, to bring officials closer to the public, and to communicate with each other through TV, just like face-to-face."

Voldemort laughed happily when he heard this.

"That's a good idea, Percy. I'll let Pokiss provide TVs to all wizards in England for free, but you know, how to solve the problem of electricity is also a problem, and you need to find a way to promote it."

As Voldemort was talking, he suddenly had an idea and said, "Let your twin brothers do some funny shows, it must be very popular."

"I will, sir. In fact, they love those shows too, they've learned from Hermione, and they even tried doing their own shows at one point."

After Percy finished speaking, he said with a wry smile, "But poverty restricts them. Teacher, you know that the Weasley family is not rich."

"I can subsidize them, let them come to me, I think we can communicate face to face." Voldemort said without hesitation.

Fort Gunter is huge, and there is no one else in the Riddle family except him.

Therefore, he doesn't mind being used by more people.

Even, the Harry Potter crew has already confirmed that this will be a filming location.

Originally Voldemort wanted to use Hogwarts directly, but Dumbledore refused. This old guy's thinking is still very feudal.

"If you want to do that... I will tell them, but my mother may not agree to it." Percy said a little embarrassed.

"To form a company together, it's up to them whether they agree or not. You just need to bring your words to me, and don't worry about the rest." Voldemort waved his hand indifferently.

If the Weasley brothers didn't come, he would invite professionals from the Muggle world, and the show he produced in this way might not be worse than that of the Weasley brothers.

"Also, Percy, before doing those things, you have to discuss with Minister Crouch, the necessary respect is still required." Voldemort reminded again.

"I know, teacher." After Percy agreed, he left Gaunt Castle.

Now, the celebrity of the Ministry of Magic is busier than Voldemort.
