Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Chapter 165 Unable to mobilize magic power

The Black family not only unearthed many items, but also brought more trouble.

Once, someone brought a book by a best-selling author who was currently popular in the wizarding world.

"This guy smells like a liar, can we really just leave him alone?"

He brought Gilderoy Lockhart's book. Well, it did feel a little fake. Maybe it was more so because I had met him in person.

"The story is quite interesting, but it may not be his credit. He is obviously talented in writing, but it is a pity. He could have just been a writer and done his writing. Although it sounds like his personal experience, I don't think it is right.

I guess he's better at writing about other people's experiences in a clever way, and even though it's written under his own name, it feels like it's written from an objective perspective. As a read, this book is really interesting and the writing is quite outstanding. Is there any way to make him do better? "

They went to ask the Weasleys for advice... There are many adults in the Weasley family, and many of them work in the Ministry of Magic. Why did they come to me first? I thought to myself.

Having said this, he would say with a twinkle in his eyes, "Because Sirius is reliable!", but in fact he was just doing it for fun.

Who should I tell? The Dark Wizard Hunting Team? Or the regular magic police? I wasn't sure, so I consulted Lucius, who owned the publishing house.

As a result, the bestselling author disappeared.

"Eh? ...What's going on?"

I asked Lucius timidly, and he told me that the guy used the Oblivion Charm to steal the credit of others. The publisher of his book was a competitor of the Malfoys, and they took this opportunity to solve the problem. Lucius smiled smugly. Ron praised Lucius's approach.

"By the way, why didn't you tell Lucius about this from the beginning? You two have a good relationship. You are closer than me. Don't involve me... Why do you always involve me?" They also used this incident as an excuse to successfully acquire the publishing house and bring it under the Malfoy family. It is said that the president of the publishing house knew about this and was an accomplice, and even helped find other people who might become targets.

"Eh... aren't you going to hand it over to the police?"

Eventually, the publisher's president and Lockhart's entire profit from the fraud were confiscated and paid to the victims as compensation. They raided Lockhart's contacts, recovered and returned the victims' research materials. The victims were no longer so angry after getting their own materials. After discussion, they came to the conclusion that Lockhart did have literary talent, so it would be better to let him become a ghostwriter for the researchers, so he was imprisoned.

Due to his mastery of the Memory Charm, his wand had been taken away. With his superior ability, even the researchers did not realize that they were being deprived of their work.

So these things have never been exposed. Considering that he could cast magic even without a wand, the Malfoys used their hidden items to completely restrain him, and then invited another Oblivion spell master to use a difficult Oblivion spell to completely erase his memory of the Oblivion spell.

At the same time, they also cast a cognitive dislocation spell to prevent him from having any awareness of the Oblivion Spell.

However, this might affect his writing, so top researchers worked together to develop a difficult magic that would prevent Lockhart from mobilizing his magic power when he tried to cast the Forgetfulness Charm.
