I wield a sword at Hogwarts

Moody unlocked the back door and they went out one by one.

Harry was excited because he was finally no longer alone.

This exciting mood lasted for a while.

Although Moody was very vigilant about assigning tasks, he did not expect that there was a magical presence on the roof of John Wick.

The three people who flew up first fell down like dumplings.

From the attic, a dog's head poked out and barked at them.

It's Tom.

…

August 12th is the day of Harry's trial, when arguments will be held in the Wizengamot.

John planned to reduce Dumbledore's power that day.

"Even if you are Dumbledore, you still have to pay a price."

His eyes narrowed dangerously, taking this opportunity to strike at Dumbledore's position as principal.

Even if he can't be pulled down directly, he still needs to make a huge concession.

In John's mind, Dumbledore's figure and the burning fire flashed.

His breathing became rapid, and when he reacted, things around him began to float.

"I didn't expect that I can't wait so hard."

Touching his heart, John said to himself.

…

Chapter 267 Transactions and Candidates

When Old Batty takes office, his original position as director will be changed.

Percy was promoted and became the director of the Office of International Magical Law. This position has huge power in the jurisdiction of foreign immigration and is a position of real power.

If Percy hadn't been too junior, Old Barty would have transferred him to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. Unfortunately, this was strongly opposed by Amelia.

Pierce was not upgraded. He knew that he would not be able to stay in this position for long. He would be transferred to the Wizengamot next year at the latest.

Oz became an Auror in the Auror Office and no longer had to travel outside.

She was upgraded inexplicably, and Tang Mi invited her to the manor for a banquet.

With Oz's current status, he is qualified to participate in the banquet.

Here she opened her mouth in surprise. The senior officials from the Ministry of Magic were clinking glasses one by one in the manor, as well as the pure-blood families and wealthy people. Each of them was a big shot to her.

I thought that the banquet that Tang Mi mentioned meant eating together, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be a feast for the big shots.

As the organizer, John put on a silver mask, and Old Barty's rise to the top allowed him to successfully obtain the tax-free policy of Silver Hand Wine Cellar, which was equivalent to giving himself money.

The change of power often brings huge benefits.

Even if he didn't say it, Old Batty would remember it and leave him a copy.

In Silverhand Manor, Old Barty transformed into the new Minister of Magic.

He was wearing a new custom-made robe, and his face, which had been stern for a long time, finally showed a heartfelt smile.

His regret for many years was finally realized.

And all of this is related to one person.

John clinked glasses with him, and Old Batty said gratefully: "Sir, I will always keep your help in mind."

"Old Barty, today is a happy day, we should put some things aside." The champagne glasses clinked gently, and John smiled unhurriedly: "You will be very busy in the future, and I will leave a bottle of wine for you when you are free. Taste it from time to time.”

His words made Barty Lao feel very comfortable. There was no condescending advice, but more like teasing between friends.

Old Barty finished the wine, burped, and an ice bubble flew out. He laughed, "This wine makes people want to stop."

Pierce stood aside, with a smile on his face, standing three steps away from the two of them.

Seeing that old Batty was drunk, he stepped forward to help him up appropriately.

"Your Excellency, I will help the minister leave first."

"Pierce, I believe you will become even better soon." John raised his wine glass, and Pierce bowed his head respectfully.

After sending Old Barty away, John searched the crowd and found the somewhat embarrassed Old Jack.

He stepped forward with a smile, and with Old Jack's respectful expression, he asked: "Old Jack, I am happy that you can come."

"Your Excellency Johnny Silverhand, this is my honor." Old Jack suppressed his excitement and said with a bit of trembling in his voice: "I never thought that a werewolf could sit in the Ministry of Magic and vote."

"Calm down, old man," John brushed off the ashes on his body and chuckled: "You are a congressman. Minister Crouch is going to reform the Werewolf Capture Force and the Werewolf Registration Office. I hope I can have suitable candidates. Recommended, I think Zuo Fei and Chu Dai are very good candidates.”

"Sir, is this true?"

When Old Jack heard the news, he was even more excited than when he became a member of Parliament.

The Werewolf Capture Force is a department under the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, specifically responsible for capturing werewolves.

Old Jack had almost been caught before, and there had always been a kind of discrimination against werewolves there.

The same goes for the werewolf registration office. Basically, no werewolf will go there unless they really can't survive. If the information is known, it means that they will be monitored by the Ministry of Magic in the future.

Inserting werewolves inside means that werewolves are no longer prey, and the werewolves who commit crimes are sinners, and they can live a normal life.

He was so excited that he almost fainted. It was incredible.

Old Jack said: "Sir, how did you do it?"

"With the transfer of power, old Jack, the werewolf community will get better, I guarantee you that."

In John's opinion, werewolves and magical creatures were not the same.

They are all victims of the curse, victims like Nagini.

There is no reason for the victim to be held responsible for someone else's crime.

He discussed with Old Batty that some positions need to be used as bargaining chips to win over people.

These two positions are not very important to ordinary wizards, and some people may not even touch them once in their lives.

But for werewolves, that is a great thing, and it is a position similar to that of an Auror.

John solemnly handed the appointment letter to Old Jack, and John got a message from Old Jack.

Lupine had approached Old Jack and wanted the werewolf to join them.

"My lord, I rejected him." Old Jack replied with a clear conscience: "Dumbledore has never helped werewolves, and werewolves will not join them."

Seeing his explanation, John was moved.

"You're my friend, old Jack, and I wouldn't doubt you."

John gave old Jack a hug. Unexpectedly, Dumbledore stretched out his hand so long that he had already reached the werewolf community.

The Order needs help, and so do the Death Eaters.

At present, most of the Death Eaters are hiding. The Star Disciples are searching outside and have encountered a group attack.

It was the hidden Death Eaters who were preparing to counterattack. The leaderless state made them very passive. Voldemort did not appear in front of these Death Eaters.

"Tom, where have you been?"

Shaking the wine glass, John looked through the liquid at the bubbles inside.

…

John has no idea about the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts.

However, he did have an idea about the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

"Tang Mi, go ahead."

After hearing this, Tang Mi was stunned for a moment.

John said to himself: "You are a graduate of Hogwarts, and as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, you are the most qualified."

Tang Mi smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, please stop joking."

he goes?

Let him teach his boss?

Don't be too ridiculous as a person. He thinks that his abilities are good, but he is far from being able to be Teacher John.

His scared look made John couldn't help but laugh. Knowing Tang Mi's personality, John was just joking.

The real target is not Tang Mi, but someone else.

John shook his head and said: "In that case, forget it. Even if you want to go, it shouldn't be ours. We need someone from the Ministry of Magic."

However, that object is related to Tang Mi.

John touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Dumbledore has too much power, we need someone to check and balance him."

"Need to obey."

Removing Dumbledore will require a process, and John plans to have the Ministry of Magic send an inquisitor.

Harry's use of magic outside of school was a breakthrough point. Using this incident as an excuse to make a request, even Dumbledore couldn't refuse.

John originally wanted to let Percy go, but unfortunately it would hurt the relationship between Percy and his family.

Looking for another candidate, he looked at Tang Mi and asked: "How is Ozzie Hilde's level?"

The last time Pierce mentioned it, John also thought of Tang Mi as a 'friend'.

As long as it's at a normal level, John doesn't mind making Ozzy's future a little brighter.

When it came to Oz, Tang Mi immediately gave a thumbs up and said categorically: "She is the best Auror, but she is limited by her background. If not for this, she would have been the director of the Auror Office. ."

After finishing speaking, Tang Mi noticed John staring at him, and he coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Then let her go. An Auror becomes a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. There is no better choice than her." John said with a half-smile, "You really appreciate this 'friend'."

"Just, just ordinary friends." Tang Mi dug his toes on the ground in embarrassment.

John waved his hand casually, "For a good person to be your friend, you have to have a bad person."

To deal with a great man like Dumbledore, it is naturally best to use some small talents.

After filtering through people with this ability in his mind, John found that it was quite difficult.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind.

An image of an aunt wearing pink clothes appeared.

He thought for a while and asked: "Do you still remember the woman in pink that you saw at the fountain in the Ministry of Magic hall on the day Old Barty was elected?"

Tang Mi recalled it carefully, showing an expression as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"My lord, are you talking about Dolores Umbridge? If it is that person, that is too annoying."

A rare look of anger appeared on Tang Mi's face, and he said in a deep voice: "When I was an Auror, I was always disgusted by that pink toad. Her desire to control wanted to control everyone."

When he said this, John's eyes lit up.

Wouldn't it be just right for such a controlling villain to face off against Dumbledore?

So he was more curious and asked Tang Mi to tell more about Umbridge. He wanted to know whether this bad guy was qualified to stand with the great Dumbledore.

This is incredible.

From Tang Mi's words, John learned that Umbridge was essentially the same type of person as Pierce.

The difference is that even if Pierce behaves more philistinely, he will not be as disgusting as Umbridge.

At best, Pierce ignores the little people and is the kind of person who flatters others.

But in this way, he will not demand too much from his subordinates, but will focus more on how to deal with senior officials tactfully.

Umbridge, on the other hand, uses her best efforts to make things difficult for others within her own limited scope.

It still seemed merciful to give Umbridge all the things that Rita Skeeter had fabricated about Amelia.
