Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 940 Chris's Proposal

Kyle sometimes had to wonder if the position of Minister of Magic had some kind of magical power.

He actually saw a bit of Cornelius Fudge in Amelia Bones, the vigorous and action-oriented minister.

Although only a little bit, she is definitely different from before.

But Kyle was still willing to help her.

After all, in the previous decisive battle, Amelia Bones did not hide in the back to command, but always led the troops and fought on the front line.

This is the quality that a qualified Minister of Magic should possess. In comparison, this insignificant change in her character is not that important.

So Kyle cooperated and completed the interview, trying to help Amelia restore some of her reputation...

Kyle didn't know if this would work... He was not Dumbledore and didn't have that much face.

But there is at least one thing Kyle is sure of. With his help, Amelia will not be directly driven out of office.

This buffer period is enough for her to do many things.

But what happened afterwards had nothing to do with Kyle.

Only Dumbledore could change most people's views on the Minister of Magic with just one sentence. He doesn't have that much face for now, so it's already great that he could help buy some time.

Kyle then went to the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, but did not find Chris. According to Cedric, he had been dealing with a problem with Dementors since noon.

"Dementors?" Kyle sat in the chair of the director's office and asked in confusion, "Are those guys looking for trouble again? Haven't they learned their lesson yet?"

The Dementors were cleaned out once a few years ago when they collectively rebelled. The number of Dementors killed by Kyle and Cedric was almost in the triple digits.

Later, because Sirius Black offered a generous reward, there was even a period of time when hunting Dementors became popular.

In addition, Dumbledore and Newt seemed to have caused trouble for them, which led to a sharp decrease in the number of Dementors.

There are probably less than fifty of them still alive, huddled miserably in the former site of Azkaban.

Yes, the old site.

Ever since the Dementors rebelled and the Death Eaters escaped on a large scale, Azkaban has lost its original purpose.

After that, the Ministry of Magic no longer dared to put prisoners there, causing Azkaban to gradually become a decoration.

Kyle was also wondering, do those Dementors really have no memory at all?

"No, it's not what you think." Cedric shook his head and explained, "The remaining Dementors are very honest, but their number has suddenly increased... from the original thirty-nine to two hundred and thirty-nine."

"What's happening here?"

"All I know is that the new Dementors suddenly appeared on the island of Azkaban."

Cedric said, "From what the Director said, Dementors are the embodiment of all evil. As long as there are dark magic and dark wizards in the world, they cannot be completely eliminated."

"Then what is he doing there?"

"I think he went to negotiate." Cedric lowered his voice and said, "I heard... I just heard that the director suggested rebuilding Azkaban."

"Dad wants to rebuild Azkaban?" Kyle muttered quietly, and soon figured out Chris's intention.

Or because of the Dementors.

Since this creature cannot be eliminated, the best way is to circle them and fix them in a place away from other people.

Azkaban is the best choice.

Firstly, it is remote enough that almost no one goes there. Secondly, while guarding the prisoners, they can also solve the food problem at the same time, so that there will be no riots due to food problems. It is a win-win situation.

Well... actually this is the only solution. Apart from rebuilding Azkaban, Kyle couldn't think of where else to place so many Dementors.

Although it is possible to kill one as soon as it appears, there are too many uncertainties in that method, and Dementors do not appear one by one. It is impossible to send dozens of wizards to stay in Azkaban Island.

The Patronus Charm is a very advanced spell that only some elite Aurors know. It is simply unrealistic to dispatch dozens of them to a deserted place at once.

"Has the Ministry agreed?" Kyle asked.

"Not yet." Cedric said, "Many people are against the director's proposal. They think Dementors are unreliable and suggest following the example of the French wizard prison and using alchemical creations to guard prisoners."

"Are they crazy?" Kyle blinked. "To be able to look after the alchemical creations of hundreds of dark wizards... do they know how much that stuff costs? Or are they finally willing to donate a large sum of gold to the Ministry of Magic?"

Kyle had never been to the wizarding prison in France, but he had heard of it.

It was said to be the most heavily guarded prison besides Azkaban. All the buildings, including the walls and floors, were part of a huge alchemical product, and it was said that Nicolas Flamel was responsible for some of it.

It was unclear whether it was true or not, and Kyle had never asked, but what was certain was that the French wizard prison had already overtaken Azkaban and was far behind.

In addition, such a huge amount of alchemical products must not be cheap, and the cost required can almost be said to be an astronomical figure.

Given the current financial state of the British Ministry of Magic, it is impossible to come up with so many Galleons, not even enough to lay a layer of floor.

Thinking about it this way, rebuilding Azkaban seems to be the cheapest way.

"What does the minister think?" Kyle continued to ask, while standing up and walking out of the office.

He thought he could help.

If I go to Amelia Bones now, she will definitely give me some face and listen to me patiently.

"Minister Bones should want to support the director." Cedric followed Kyle out of the office and said, "He's just a little hesitant because of the previous large-scale prison break."

"The Director went to Azkaban this time to solve this problem."

Hearing Cedric say this, Kyle knew that he didn't need to help with this matter.

Minister Bones and Chris have the same idea. What remains is how to solve the problem of the Dementors' possible rebellion and then convince others.

This is not difficult... after all, the only thing that does not require extra Galleons is the reconstruction of Azkaban.

The two of them walked into the elevator and came to the magnificent main hall.

"Will you come back to Hogwarts with me?" Kyle looked at Cedric beside him and asked, "The Weasley brothers and I have organized a very interesting recitation club. You might be interested in it."

"Huh?" Cedric was stunned for a moment, as if trying to understand what Kyle meant.

Now that the war has just ended, the people of Hogwarts should not have recovered from the joy and sadness of victory. It is time to organize a recitation club...

Is it to eulogize the victims?

But... such a meaningful and positive activity doesn't seem like something that Fred and George could do... By the way, it doesn't match Kyle either.

Cedric knew his three best friends too well. He could trust them with his back without reservation when they were in danger.

But when there was no danger, he would never dare to turn his back on them.

In other words, after the war, the three of them would probably be the biggest danger to Hogwarts.

Cedric couldn't connect them with the choir no matter how hard he tried.

"Forget it, I'd better stay in the ministry." Cedric shook his head and rejected Kyle's invitation.

Half of the staff were gone all of a sudden, and the remaining people were almost going crazy trying to ensure the normal operation of the wizarding world.

Cedric is no exception. Since he came back, he has been assigned three jobs. In addition to his main duties, he also has to keep an eye on some smugglers who want to fish in troubled waters. Occasionally, he needs to guest-star as a member of the Reversal of Incidents Team to erase the memory of a Muggle.

This time, by sending Kyle out, he also wanted to take the opportunity to catch his breath.

Cedric actually wanted to go to Hogwarts like Kyle and stay with his friends, but he couldn't... Someone had to do these jobs, otherwise the British wizarding world would be in chaos.

Of course, that doesn't mean it's any easier at Hogwarts, where they'll have to deal with a possible return of Voldemort.

All we can say is that everyone has their own duties.

Seeing Cedric shaking his head, Kyle said nothing more and used the fireplace to return to Hogwarts.

In order to facilitate the families of the victims to come to Hogwarts as soon as possible, and to enable them to leave as quickly as possible when encountering danger, the school specially opened a Floo network in the fireplace of Professor McGonagall's office.

However, because it had not been used for a long time, a lot of dust was raised when Kyle came out.

"It's you, Kyle." The person in charge of guarding here was Professor Flitwick. He waved his wand and the surroundings immediately became clear.

"Well, is it done?

"I heard that many people want to oust Bones because of the rebellion in the Ministry of Magic. She probably asked you to go there for this reason."

"Yes, that's right." Kyle said, "But I choose to support her. As long as I publish some specific details of the war and let everyone see that she has been fighting the Death Eaters, I should be able to regain some support."

"The school can also help." Professor Flitwick said, "We have discussed this with Minerva. Bones is a good minister. At least she will not hinder us until Voldemort is completely eliminated."

"Then we can let Professor McGonagall and Minister Bones meet more often and discuss some things together." Kyle said:

"I remember that Professor Dumbledore did just that at the time, and he successfully helped Fudge, who was not favored by others, to stabilize his position as minister."

"But Minerva is not Albus," Professor Flitwick sighed.

"But she's the headmaster of Hogwarts," Kyle said with a smile.

"makes sense."

At this time, there was another rustling sound coming from the fireplace at the back.

Kyle knew someone was coming and left the office.

"Ah, look, this piece of rotten, maggot-infested cheese really looks like Voldemort's head."

As soon as Kyle walked out of the office, he heard a loud shouting in the corridor, as if someone had dug out a piece of cheese that had fallen in the corner for who knows how many years.

Then there was another person's voice, equally serious and full of energy.

"Don't say that about Voldemort. Voldemort's head doesn't look like cheese at all. I think Voldemort's head looks more like a house-elf's butt."

My goodness, every sentence must have a 'Voldemort'... Kyle immediately understood that the other party must be the person Fred and George were looking for.

But the things they said… putting Voldemort and house-elf together, Fred knew how to curse.

Fortunately, they are in Hogwarts, otherwise it is hard to say whether Voldemort will come and kill them.

Kyle continued walking forward and found that there were more than two such people.

It seemed that during his time at the Ministry, Fred and George had found a group of like-minded companions.

Walking in the corridors of Hogwarts now, you can clearly hear the name Voldemort coming from every corner, and none of them are good.

Some of them are obviously Fred George style, while others are personal performances, but they are equally exciting.

I hope Voldemort can take the initiative to turn off the passive effect of the name magic, otherwise, Kyle even thinks he might be angry to death.

After all, some of these words would make even a good-tempered person like him feel irritated, let alone the violent Voldemort.

Kyle returned to the first floor auditorium and found Kanna there.

She was working with Madam Pomfrey to treat those who were injured.

Because there were so many injured people, even with Slughorn's help, there were not enough blood replenishing and detoxifying potions. When Connor found out, she volunteered to help.

She had brewed many similar potions before, including those for healing and detoxification. She was so skilled at making them now that she could even control five cauldrons of different potions by herself, which stunned Slughorn.

Because he can only control three crucibles and, if there are more, it can only be the same kind of potion.

Unconvinced, he went to check the quality of the potion again.

It’s not the best, but it can still get an O in the NEWT test, which fully meets Madam Pomfrey’s requirements... This is already very good.

And in this situation, efficiency is obviously more important than quality.

After seeing Kyle, Connor just waved quickly and followed Madam Pomfrey to somewhere else.

Kyle also saw Fred and George.

They still sat in the corner of the auditorium, trying hard to think of new sentences.

Not far away sat Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

Because in this war, the 'savior' did not seem to play the role he should have, so that Harry seemed a little deserted.

But Harry himself didn't care about this, and even felt a little happy.

At this moment, he was touching his forehead and talking to Ron excitedly, while Hermione was flipping through a thick book beside him, occasionally looking up at Harry with a look of deep confusion on her face.

"You're saying that you have a fragment of Voldemort's soul in your body?"

"And the Dementors sucked it out..."

"This is impossible!"

Hermione flipped through the book "Soul Spells, Expand Your Brain" in her hand, trying to find content that could explain all this.

Harry is a living person, how could he have a Horcrux?

And there were Dementors. Hermione just couldn't believe that such creatures would be so kind as to only suck away fragments of Voldemort's soul and spare Harry's complete soul.

This doesn't make sense.

It was like a wizard who broke into the Gringotts vault and gave up the Galleons that were within his reach and chose a missing Nat instead.

That's a Dementor, how could he be so kind?

It's impossible no matter how you think about it.

As for what Harry said, that the Dementor did not harm him because it was controlled by Kyle, Hermione was even less convinced.

She had never heard of anyone being able to control Dementors. Even the wizards who had guarded Azkaban before could only communicate with them in a simple way, rather than commanding them like cruppies.

In fact, no wizard could command Dementors, and there had never been any record of such a thing, except for this time when Voldemort attacked Hogwarts.

But this can't be considered as commanding. Voldemort just released the Dementors, and all their actions were just out of their instinct to absorb beauty.

Hermione closed the book in her hand and put it aside, then picked up another one.

"Where are the Fantastic Beasts"

She quickly turned to the page with the picture of the Dementors.

It has been made very clear above. After encountering Dementors, if you don't know the Patronus Charm, don't hesitate to just run away. There is no other way to deal with them.

Even the famous Mr. Newt Scamander couldn't do it, and certainly no one else could.

And speaking of Kyle, Hermione couldn't help but think of the time in the Screaming Ice Cream Room when Kyle suddenly used a Stunning Spell to knock her down.

This made her even angrier.

"Swish...swish..." The sound of Hermione turning pages of the book became louder and louder, and the voices of Harry and Ron became quieter and quieter.

Kyle listened for a while in the back, but did not disturb them, and just left the auditorium quietly.
