In August, the International Wizarding Confederation Conference was held without any warning.

Jointly initiated by more than a dozen countries, representatives from hundreds of countries were invited to the UK, and the Ministry of Magic deliberately vacated the Auror Training Building as the venue.

Keynes, who presided over the meeting, was confused and had no idea what the purpose of holding the meeting today was.

But the next second, his heart skipped a beat.

Grindelwald entered the venue surrounded by the magic ministers of several countries, scanned the area, and sat down next to Dumbledore.

Such a move made many people feel relieved. Even though Grindelwald had been much more honest recently, they were still afraid to live under the same roof with him.

It was good to sit next to Dumbledore, at least he could contain him.

At ten o'clock in the morning, all the representatives arrived, and the conference hall was full.

"Uh..." Keynes looked at Dumbledore a little at a loss, "Albus, you are the one who took the lead in convening this meeting, why don't you speak?"

"Let Mr. Crouch speak." Dumbledore said calmly.

As for Wayne's purpose, he was also informed, neither agreeing nor opposing, this is his attitude.

Crouch stood up, walked calmly to Keynes' side, and nodded at him.

As the former director of the International Magical Cooperation Department of the United Kingdom, many people are familiar with him, and so is Keynes, who wisely gave up his position and handed the stage to him.

Crouch pointed his wand at his throat, making sure that everyone could hear his voice before he began to speak.

"Everyone, this time the United Kingdom proposed to hold a joint meeting with only one motion to be submitted, that is, to change the age limit for underage wizards to cast spells outside of school from the original seventeen years old to the end of the fifth grade semester."

Wow!

A thousand waves were stirred up at once. After hearing Crouch's words, the originally very quiet conference hall suddenly became noisy, and many people couldn't help but exclaimed.

This proposal seems to only concern minors, but in fact it has already pried open the foundation for the establishment of the modern magic world.

Due to the long-term witch hunting and persecution by the Church, the living environment of wizards 167 became increasingly difficult. In 1689, 26 countries and regions jointly signed the "International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy", which officially came into effect in 1692.

From then on, it became the common goal of all wizards to ensure that the wizarding world would not be discovered by Muggles and could exist in a hidden and orderly manner.

It was also to ensure the implementation of the secrecy law that these countries and regions established the Ministry of Magic one after another.

In the beginning, the Ministry of Magic had only one function, which was to hide wizards firmly in the shadows of the world. After years of continuous development, it became an administrative agency with absolute power today.

The "Law on Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards" is one of the restrictions on young wizards. Underage wizards are mentally immature and have a lot of control over magic. If they are allowed to abuse their powers,Using magic can easily lead to large-scale leaks.

"Mr. Crouch, this is impossible." Keynes objected without hesitation: "Wizards over the age of seventeen have mature spellcasting abilities and vigilance. This has been recognized by countless people for hundreds of years."

"What about Mr. Lawrence?" Crouch asked back.

Keynes cursed in his heart, can you give me a normal example.

"Mr. Lawrence won the Order of Merlin in his first year. He is fully qualified to control magic power, and..."

Keynes didn't say anything later, looking at Crouch with contempt, the meaning was very simple.

Even if he violated the law, do you dare to intervene?

After the World Cup, a country actually complained to the International Confederation of Wizards about Lawrence's age, but was pushed back by Crouch at the time.

"If anyone thinks that the situation was not life-threatening, then you will never have to raise your wand again in your life."

That's what Crouch said at the time, and the magic ministries of a group of countries were helpless. (adah)

"In short, this proposal will never pass." Keynes rejected it directly.

"I object..." A magnetic and low voice came into their ears, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and then their faces changed.

Because they saw Grindelwald raising one arm and slowly standing up.

"I agree with Mr. Crouch's opinion. It is an unreasonable rule to allow students to cast spells outside of school at the age of seventeen."

"These few years in school are the time for wizards to really lay the foundation. If students are not allowed to touch wands for at least two months every year, what magic can they learn and how can they develop tacit understanding with wands?"

Grindelwald looked around the audience, and no one dared to look at him, and they all lowered their heads silently.

When Grindelwald swept across Europe, his slogan was to abolish the Statute of Secrecy and go to war with the Muggle world. Now he no longer has the heart to go to war, but he still thinks the Statute of Secrecy is disgusting.

He even thinks it is a shame.

It is because of the emergence of the Statute of Secrecy that wizards hide their identities, like rats in the gutter.

As a result, not only do they not feel ashamed, but they take it for granted, which makes him hate it.

"Besides..." Grindelwald's voice became more and more indifferent: "Don't pretend to be confused, everyone here, most of you are pure-blooded, who dares to say... that you have never used your identity to do good things?"

"It's easy to talk when you are standing, because you know that your children will be able to use magic freely like you in the future without causing trouble, and the only ones who will be hurt are those Muggle-born children."

Many people showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.

They really thought so.

The flaws of Trace have meant that he has too many loopholes to exploit. As long as there are adult wizards nearby, the Ministry of Magic will not investigate carefully.

Half-bloods are fine, but where can Muggle-born students find such conditions?

IfHarry would surely be excited to tears if he knew what Grindelwald said today.

As expected of his teacher, every word he said was his pain.

"Mr. Grindelwald, I can guarantee that the situation you described will not happen in the North American magic world." A tall man with blond hair and blue eyes stood up, with a strange light in his eyes.

"According to the laws of the North American Magic Congress, all students must leave their wands at school during the summer vacation, so naturally there is no possibility of breaking the law."

"That's why you are so weak."

Grindelwald's sarcasm made the tall man's expression stiff for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"You shouldn't look at us with old eyes. Decades have passed, and everything has changed."

"Hmm?" Grindelwald raised his eyebrows and heard something unusual.

He looked at the tall man and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

The tall man straightened his chest and looked at him directly, "Corian Graves."

"Graves..." Grindelwald repeated, slowly revealing a look of realization, "I was wondering why he looked familiar. Who is Percival to you?"

"I didn't expect you to remember this name. He is my great-grandfather." Corian unconsciously clenched his fists, and there was a sense of gnashing teeth in his tone.

Dumbledore's face also became strange. (To read the violent novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Percival Graves, this name is an alternative taboo in the North American magic world. When Grindelwald traveled to North America, he borrowed his identity to become the North American Security Minister. If it weren't for Newt's appearance that exposed his flaws, I'm afraid he would have become the next minister.

"Gattler..." Dumbledore called in a low voice, signaling him not to go too far.

Grindelwald snorted, "Boy, Ilvermorny does require students to leave their wands at school, but don't you have old wands left by your ancestors at home?"

"If you dare to swear that you used magic at home, I will leave immediately and will never mention the issue of changing the age limit again. Don't think of lying to me, you can't hide from my Legilimency."

Grindelwald stared at Corian, with dazzling brilliance flashing in his heterochromatic pupils.

He looked at him and made him sweat. Corian sat back in his seat dejectedly. He was finally afraid. Grindelwald was right. He would practice magic with the old wand at home every summer vacation.

After sending away a troublemaker, the rest of the people dared not stand up and openly oppose, and could only express their attitudes with silence. .

Crouch continued, "After a year of follow-up research in Hogwarts, Mr. Lawrence and the professors are absolutely sure that opening up magic access to students above the fifth grade will not affect the Statute of Secrecy, and will also help them get used to magical life faster and more skillfully."

"KeSpeaker Enns, I hope to vote on this proposal. "

Keynes looked at Dumbledore and Grindelwald, then looked at the calm and strong Crouch, and sighed helplessly: "Then let's vote by raising hands."

After saying that, he was the first to slowly raise his hand.

Based on the attitudes of Grindelwald and Dumbledore just now, he was sure that the three of them must have talked privately. If they continued to oppose, it would be a bit impolite.

Again, things that the three demon kings agreed to cannot be rejected.

Among the big countries, only Corian kept his head down and did not respond. The other representatives raised their hands one after another, and soon more than 80% reached the minimum standard for the proposal to be passed.

......[]

[The host changed the fundamental laws of the magic world, causing a major impact, and rewarded 30,000 points and a critical strike gift pack.]

[Reminder, this event can be chosen to continue, completely abolish the "Secrecy Act", change the ecology of the wizarding world, and get 10 points 10,000, a pseudo-god-level reward lottery. 】

In Lawrence Manor, when the system prompt appeared in his mind, Wayne knew that Crouch had succeeded.

This was the way he thought of to quickly obtain points, and the richness was far beyond his expectations.

Especially the prompt at the end, the reward for completely abolishing the confidentiality law was so much that he was a little tempted.

But at the moment, we must not be too radical, and we must not lose the overall situation for that little reward.

Wayne did not rush to open the gift package, but closed the system interface and told Gardevoir to prepare lunch, and the guests were coming soon.

Sure enough.

At half past eleven, Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and Crouch came together.

"The bill you requested has been passed." Crouch said.

"Well done, here you go. "Wayne never hesitated to give rewards, and threw half a bottle of Sunwell water over, "Go back and use it with your wife, it can improve your strength and prolong your life."

Crouch took it with joy, thanked Wayne, and left tactfully.

He couldn't get a word in on the topic the three wanted to talk about, so he decided not to sit here and go home to accompany his wife.

Dumbledore was about to speak when he was interrupted by Grindelwald, who was a little agitated after entering the door.

"Wayne, who is Ms. Grace?" .
