The day of the duel at Hogwarts

Voldemort looked sideways at Lucius.

How could Voldemort not know what kind of person Lucius Malfoy is? If we only look at his loyalty to him, Lucius is not even as good as Old Goyle and Old Crabbe, let alone Bella or Barty Jr. Yes, but in Voldemort, Lucius has always played a decisive role. This is not only because of the Malfoy family's money, but also because Lucius has a view of the overall situation that is rare among Death Eaters. His understanding of power, even if Neither Bella nor Barty Jr. can compare.

Therefore, Voldemort was tolerant of Lucius, tolerated his betrayal, and tolerated him sending his life-like Horcrux diary to Hogwarts to be destroyed by Sean Burst.

If someone else had made such a mistake, they would have been baptized by Avatar countless times.

Slowly putting away his wand, Voldemort looked at Lucius, then turned to Old Goyle and Old Crabbe, and said, "What Lucius said makes sense. The punishment of you two will be temporarily postponed. If you can If the giants win you over to our camp, then I can forgive you for your foolish attempt to deceive me. But if you fail to live up to my kindness and waste the opportunity I gave you, then what awaits you is not just as simple as the Cruciatus Curse. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your great mercy, Master."

"Master, I, we will definitely complete the mission, and we will definitely complete the mission this time!"

After waving his hand, Voldemort didn't even think of saying a word to old Goyle and old Crabbe.

Seeing Voldemort waving his hand, Old Goyle and Old Crabbe glanced at Lucius, nodded slightly gratefully to him, and crawled out of the secret room under the ridicule of others.

Sitting back in his seat, he reached out and gently stroked the head of Nagini who was wrapped in the chair. Voldemort spoke again: "The recent plan to use the Ministry of Magic to hinder Hogwarts and Dumbledore has stalled. That idiot Fudge is looking forward and backward, and is not a good person to take advantage of."

After Voldemort's words fell, the scene was in a state of silence for a while. At this moment, a man sitting in the corner of the long table slowly spoke to Voldemort: "Master, I have an idea that needs to be corrected by the master. .”

Looking at that person, Voldemort showed a look of interest on his face. He nodded slightly and said: "As a new person who joins my command, I would like to hear your thoughts. I want to see how you are related to these people." What difference does it make to the old man who sits next to me and does not share my worries, Borel!"

As soon as these words came out, the smiles on the faces of the veteran Death Eaters who were still smiling froze one after another. They looked at Voldemort, their faces full of seriousness and fear, and some of them even started to Shivering.

Borrell looked at Voldemort and said: "Master, this matter is indeed very troublesome, but because I have been working in the Ministry of Magic for a long time, I have some understanding of some people and some things. Everyone here may not have mine. experience, so it’s normal for them not to think of this. I think in other aspects, they can definitely share the worries of the master.”

Looking at Borrell, Voldemort had an unknown smile on his face. He didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly and said: "Say what you think, Borrell."

"Master, Fudge is cowardly, stubborn, weak, and greedy for money and power. He is not a good person to use. And the most important thing is that Fudge is not actually on our side, and he has never surrendered. For you, the master, many things will backfire in his hands.

Therefore, my idea is that we can consider supporting a wizard who is loyal to you, the master, to become the Minister of Magic. Even if this person cannot openly support us and serve you, the current situation, but a minister of magic who stands under the master , should be able to accomplish many things for you, Master, such as holding back Hogwarts and Dumbledore. "

After listening to Borrell's words, Voldemort's snake face showed a hint of emotion. He nodded slowly and said to Borrell: "Borrell, tell me, what is your advice to this man?" ?”

"Master, Fudge has an assistant who he has raised by himself. Her name is Dolores Umbridge. This woman has huge ambitions and may be of use to us."

"What about Fudge? How do we get him to step down?"

"Just letting Fudge step down would be too wasteful. Maybe we can let Fudge become the ladder for our elected ministers to rise in his last days, and let him contribute his final glory to our elected ministers and to you, the master. hot."

"Very well, then this matter will be handled by you, Borel."

"I am willing to contribute my strength to the master."

Marvolo Gaunt's ring was cut down the middle.

Sean panted and put away the cut Marvolo Gaunt's ring.

The soul fragments in Horcruxes are also divided into strengths and weaknesses. The soul fragment in Marvolo Gaunt's ring is definitely one of the strongest soul fragments split by Voldemort. Sean really spent a lot of energy to deal with him. .

Opening the panel, Sean looked at the prompts on the panel, saw the ability he had obtained this time, and was ready to receive it.

[If you win the duel, four duel target abilities will be randomly selected. 】

【Extracting...】

[The extraction is over, you will get: Cruciatus Curse lv5, Apparition Curse lv5, Coma Curse lv4, Talent: Magic Awakening (5/7). 】

The abilities extracted this time are all already possessed by Sean, but they are higher in level than those possessed by Sean. Of course, the coma spell is excepted. The two magics of Apparition and Cruciatus Curse are, relatively speaking, Sean is more interested in level 5 Apparition. The advanced applications of Apparition that Sean had seen before really made him covetous, and now Sean can get it too.

After closing the panel and feeling the pain welling up deep in his body, Sean slowly exhaled and found a place to lie down in the Room of Requirement to welcome the fifth magical awakening.

This time Sean was still awakening his magic power in a sober state, and as before, he turned on his spiritual vision ability and watched the threads extending from his body and the threads emerging from the void.

As before, he went all out to manipulate a silk thread on his body, entangled it with the thread extending out of the void, pulled it out, and dragged it into his body. This time, the thread Sean captured was stronger than before. Thicker and longer!
