Hogwarts: Please graduate soon
Chapter 501
Dumbledore had great confidence in Wayne, but when it came to Voldemort, what he needed was not confidence, but a guarantee that he could keep him forever.
"Before he escaped, Voldemort issued a declaration of war to you. He will challenge you in a month." Dumbledore said.
"That's just right." Wayne was very happy. It was rare for Voldemort to muster up the courage to cut him in half.
"I think..." Dumbledore hinted wildly, "To deal with a dark lord like Voldemort, we don't need to talk about duel rules. I will hide near the duel site in advance and wait for an opportunity to give him a fatal blow~."
"Of course, you don't have to worry about damaging your reputation. I will take everything afterward. I will bear all the infamy, and you have no idea about it."
The young man looked at Dumbledore, whose eyes were shining, in astonishment. He couldn't imagine that these words came from his mouth.
If outsiders knew about it, it is estimated that many people would have their faith collapsed.
At the same time, Wayne also discovered that... since he accepted the fact that he was retired, Dumbledore has become more and more unscrupulous in his actions.
In the past, Crouch and others killed so many people, even if they were Death Eaters, he would stop them.
But now he just watched coldly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, everything had nothing to do with him.
"That... Professor." Wayne was also frightened by such an old Dumbledore, and organized his words: "I think... even if Voldemort is angry and stupid, he will not ignore your threat and duel with me."
"The reason why he set a deadline of one month must be to make some preparations. I think it would be better for you to stay in Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic at that time."
Dumbledore fell into deep thought. He could not refute Wayne's speculation. Voldemort was so afraid of death that he would be more cautious after experiencing this setback.
"Then I can only rely on you." Finally, Dumbledore sighed and said helplessly, "Why didn't he invite me?"
"Because Voldemort knows that if I continue to give him time, it will be meaningless even if he defeats you."
The young man's words revealed strong confidence, and Dumbledore deeply agreed that time was on Wayne's side.
Looking at Harry, Dumbledore knew that he had to leave. He stood up and used a spell to control Harry to float up, preparing to send him to the school infirmary.
"Professor."
"Huh?" Hearing Wayne calling him, Dumbledore, who was standing at the door, turned back in confusion.
"Nothing." Wayne's smile was very bright: "Just want to remind you that the weather has turned cold recently, so you should put on more clothes."
Dumbledore felt warm in his heart and nodded with a smile, "Thank you, I will pay attention."
The long night finally passed, and the storm had brewed and swept in at dawn.
Crouch returned to the Ministry of Magic with dozens of corpses and a few Death Eaters who survived.
He deliberately selectedDuring the normal working hours of employees, these people were placed in the hall so that everyone could see them as soon as they arrived at the department.
Faced with the murderous Aurors and the corpses on the ground, the timid employees fainted directly.
Soon, Fudge came with a few confidants.
After seeing the dead Death Eaters, he knew that he was finished, and in the testimonies of dozens of people, the battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore was described vividly.
The news could no longer be concealed, and everyone understood that the man who could not even be named was back.
After the initial panic, Fudge calmed down.
When dozens of Death Eaters escaped from prison, he had already expected that this day would definitely come.
"Arrange a press conference. We have an obligation to tell the public the truth."
Crouch did not speak, but turned around to arrange it.
"I must regretfully inform you that the wizard who calls himself the Demon King - you know who I'm talking about, has returned."
Facing the reporters, Fudge looked tired and uneasy, "The Dementors in Azkaban have collectively rioted, and they have betrayed our society."
"We strongly urge the magic community to remain vigilant. The Ministry of Magic is publishing a family and personal defense guide, which will be given to all wizarding families for free next month."
"Through self-examination, we found that Umbridge, the former Senior Deputy Minister of Magic and Director of the Education Department, was one of them. It was she who used her power to obscure the truth and made the Ministry of Magic misunderstand Dumbledore, including me."
Fudge bowed deeply to the reporters, "As a minister, I have an unshirkable responsibility, so I will resign as Minister of Magic and fully cooperate with the investigation of the Wizengamot and the Independent Commission Against Corruption."
After that, Fudge walked off the stage in a flash of lights.
His era in the Ministry of Magic came to an end, and the public did not know who would take the stage in the future.
That evening, the students of Hogwarts also knew what had happened.
Not to mention strength, there was a Dumbledore gap between Voldemort and Grindelwald in terms of deterrence against the young British wizards.
The whole castle was in a panic, and everyone was swaying in their chairs uncomfortably, looking at the empty seats in the guest of honor from time to time, and had no intention of enjoying the food on the table.
The door of the hut where the warriors had gathered was pushed open, and Wayne came out, followed by Dumbledore and the deans of the four colleges.
The noise in the auditorium quickly disappeared, and the young wizards looked at the two leaders with surprise.
Coming to the main seat, Dumbledore stood on Wayne's left, and the boy looked around, and finally blinked at Qiu before speaking.
"Voldemort is back, now you should believe it, right?"
Still in complete silence, Wayne looked at the Slytherin table again. Unlike the panic of others, their faces were filled with fear.
Fortunately, they didn't see anything last night.Relatives of the family died.
Unfortunately, the relationship between pure-bloods is complicated, and many uncles, aunts, and uncles have died.
"The war has begun." Retracting his gaze, Wayne said something that made everyone look solemn.
"Unlike Grindelwald, Voldemort obviously does not have his rationality. What he pursues is completely opposite to most of us. In the next period of time, the British wizarding world will enter a most dangerous period."
Fear and uneasiness began to spread, but seeing Wayne and Dumbledore beside him, they felt a lot more at ease.
"Appropriate vigilance is necessary, but excessive worry will only cause internal friction." The boy said, "Hogwarts is still the safest place in the world. You will not be hurt here."
His words gave everyone great confidence, and what happened next shocked everyone.
"One month. In the battle last night, Voldemort challenged me. He will duel with me in one month. By then, I will completely eliminate him and fight to the death."
"During this month, all open days of Hogwarts are cancelled. No one is allowed to leave the school, let alone enter the Forbidden Forest."
Wayne's eyes stayed on the twins for two seconds with a meaningful look. The two were still shocked by the news of the duel. Feeling his gaze, they sat up straight and nodded seriously.
In the past, they never took Dumbledore's instructions to heart, but for Wayne, this bad friend had a hundred ways to deal with them.
"Okay." Wayne retracted his gaze, "Let's applaud the return of Professor Dumbledore." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
The warm applause echoed in the hall. Wayne sat down. After the dinner, he kept Malfoy.
"Let your parents hide in Hogsmeade for a while, and call Selwyn along. Wait until Voldemort is dead in a month before going home."
Neither the Malfoys nor Selwyn participated in the battle last night. Voldemort will soon notice something is wrong. After all, he has surrendered to him, so Wayne just reminded him casually.
Malfoy nodded repeatedly and trotted back to write a letter home.
Dumbledore stood in the distance and watched until Wayne came over and asked, "Your nail is Lucius?"
"That's right."
"I don't think his brain block can hide Voldemort." Dumbledore said a little strangely.
"Everything is possible in dreams." Wayne smiled mysteriously and told him the effect of the improved nightmare curse.
Dumbledore suddenly realized it after listening, and then he was amazed.
The brains of young people are much more flexible than those of an old man like him, and they have a lot of wonderful ideas.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Wayne asked.
"I want you to invite Slughorn back. You should know who he is." Dumbledore said.
"Former Slytherin Headmaster and Potions Professor."
"Yes, but the most important thing is that he is TomProfessor, and likes him very much. "Dumbledore looked at the gate, "Through the clues and Slughorn's performance, I think... the news about the Horcruxes is most likely told to Tom by him, and he is very likely to know how many Horcruxes Tom has made."
"Slughorn is a qualified professor. His only shortcoming is that he is too partial to outstanding and famous students."
Dumbledore looked at Wayne with a smile in his eyes, "If it were you, the success rate of inviting him would definitely be much higher than mine."
Wayne thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I'll go to him in a few days."
Although Wayne has confirmed it, in order to reassure Dumbledore and to give the school another excellent professor, he is still ready to go.
"I wish you all the best. "After saying that, Dumbledore left. He had to go back to the Hog's Head.
In the next few days, the magic world was in a state of turmoil.
Although Voldemort was defeated that night and the Ministry of Magic killed a large number of Death Eaters, a small number of remnants still escaped.
The Dementors also rebelled, and all the prisoners there ran out. People seemed to have returned to the era when they were once shrouded by the Dark Mark.
The Ministry of Magic has been working hard on this, distributing the "Defense Manual" to tell people how to protect themselves, but with little success.
The most important thing is, The Ministry of Magic also urgently needs to elect a new Minister.
In the huge conference room, all the current directors, deputy directors, and directors of important departments of the Ministry of Magic are present, even Arthur Weasley is here, dozens of people in total.
They are the highest-ranking officials in the Ministry of Magic today.
Among them, Bones, Crouch, and Mrs. Greengrass are the most eye-catching and have become the Big Three. []
Many people believe that the position of Minister of Magic will most likely come from one of the three of them.
"We must make a decision as soon as possible." Bones said, "In the past 48 hours, there have been 86 cases of Muggles being affected by magic, and the memory erasure team is very busy."
"The Ministry of Magic must have a qualified minister to stop the chaos from continuing. "
Mrs. Greengrass's expression remained unchanged, and she looked at Crouch instead. Her action also made many people understand the meaning.
Lawrence's mother-in-law had no interest in the position of minister.
"Ms. Bones is right." Crouch was still as serious as usual, "We should indeed elect a minister to deal with the current situation."
"I recommend Mr. Crouch, who performed very well in the action against the mysterious man." Bones also gave up the competition.
She was not a person obsessed with power. With the support of Lawrence, Crouch would definitely do better than him.
However, to everyone's surprise, Crouch shook his head in the face of a situation that was already a sure win.
"I am not suitableAs the Minister of Magic, you all know that my son was once a member of the Death Eaters, and I have an unshirkable responsibility for this. "Crouch said, taking out a document. "However, a wizard who is more qualified than me has submitted a self-recommendation report to me." Crouch said, pushing the document forward. "Dumbledore said that he is willing to become the Minister of Magic and stand at the forefront of the fight against Voldemort. ". ".
