A Certain Magical Hogwarts

Chapter 765 The Descendants of Slytherin

No matter how much Fudge jumped around and vehemently opposed it, he had to admit one thing:

He was just the Minister of Magic at the British Ministry of Magic.

Even if he shouts loudly, he's just a local bully, how could he possibly have any influence over the International Wizarding Federation?

So, on the advice of Stark, the war hero who had just saved Vienna:

Representatives from various countries, including Piqueli, agreed to allow Dumbledore to take office and resume his role as interim president.

Dumbledore was the first Minister of Magic in his country to disqualify him from being a representative, thus losing his position as president.

He was also the first wizard who was not a representative but served as the president... although it was only temporary.

All I can say is: life is unpredictable, so don't underestimate the beauty of your twilight years.

William played a crucial role in Dumbledore's reinstatement.

The federation will believe whatever he says now.

The reason is also very simple:

At the time of the White Dragon Incident, there was still some time before the start of the General Assembly, and most of the delegates had not yet arrived in Venice.

The siren invasion was different; William confronted the Kraken in full view of everyone, turning the tide of battle.

His prestige reached an unprecedented peak.

His suggestions will naturally be considered repeatedly and carefully.

It's like when Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald. He himself wasn't even a representative of England, let alone Wissengamo; he was just an ordinary professor.

But he said: Lock Grindelwald up in Nurmengard.

No one dared to object.

He said: Don't keep watch.

No one will object.

That's prestige.

There was another reason for bringing Dumbledore back: Grindelwald had escaped from prison.

The general public may not know about this, but the International Federation of Wizards is aware of it.

At the time, some people suggested bringing Dumbledore back, and after the Kraken's outburst, they wanted him back even more.

Whether it's taking charge of the overall situation or withstanding pressure... when the sky falls, there are always tall people to hold it up; when trouble comes, there are always broad-shouldered people to shoulder it.

Dumbledore was also bewildered. He had hoped that by losing his position as chairman, he could relieve himself of the burden and travel around giving speeches to tell the world that Voldemort had returned.

But unexpectedly, not long after, the International Federation of Wizards contacted him again, saying:

The organization has decided that you will continue to serve as the president!

Nobody else can do it!

Dumbledore had no choice but to recite two lines of poetry.

It's just a poem he wrote himself. After all, he was quite the dirty poet when he was young, and he was best at writing sonnets.

That evening, Dumbledore arrived in Vienna and saw the scene of destruction.

Dumbledore is truly exceptional.

As long as the building wasn't damaged beyond repair by dark magic, he simply used "Restore to its original state" to restore it.

This is something no ordinary wizard could ever do... the immense power of the Elder Wand!

Standing on the banks of the Danube, William carefully took Dumbledore's wand and examined it closely.

Tsk tsk, no wonder it's one of the nine Deathly Hallows: The Elder Wand

The staff is made of nine-times elderberry, forged in the furnace by the Grim Reaper himself. The eldest brother obtained it as a divine treasure, used to verify its efficacy throughout the four seas and eight rivers... cough cough, wrong script, that's Sixth Master's golden cudgel.

The Old Man's Wand was certainly not that mysterious, but William could tell at a glance that it was no ordinary item.

The end of that ancient elderberry tree even took on the shape of a human.

Master Lu, a renowned wand maker from the Far East, once mentioned this in his article "From the Herb Garden to the Wand Shop":

There are those that grow on the root of Polygonum multiflorum that resemble human figures; if you make a staff from one of them, you can become an immortal.

I suppose elderberry is probably the same.

Okay, enough pretending, William is coming clean.

He looked it over from left to right, and indeed, the Elder Wand seemed quite ordinary.

It's not as beautiful as the one William has, which is said to be the last wand made by Ollivander's grandfather.

William even felt that he could break the wand with a little force.

He dared not break it, or Death would surely kill him.

With the Elder Wand in hand, William cast a Thunderbolt spell, instantly shattering the rocks on the shore.

No wonder it's called the Elder Wand. William felt the texture in his hand and began to notice some clues.

Using someone else's wand can feel uncomfortable and repulsive.

The spells used will be much weaker.

But this wand is different; it has no stagnation, and its power is almost the same as his own wand.

But I'm not its owner!

In other words, this is a magic wand that does not have a "rejection reaction".

Anyone can use it anytime, but its power... is no different from that of a regular wand.

For the Elder Wand to unleash its unparalleled power, it must be its true master.

You have to conquer it first, otherwise even if you possess its body, you won't win its heart.

"The Elder Wand is the most emotionless, the most cold and cruel wand; it only considers power."

Dumbledore sighed softly.

Although the headmaster doesn't know how to make wands, he has a deep understanding of wand science.

Other wands will have a certain degree of loyalty to a person.

Even if you are attacked with an exorcism weapon, but you still hold that wand, even if you lose in the war, but you still hold that wand, that wand will still serve you.

They won't give up on the wand's owner so easily.

However, the Elder Wand is only loyal to its power, so it is completely devoid of emotion.

It follows the force.

If you defeat the Elder Wand's master, then you have won the Elder Wand's loyalty.

Dumbledore shook his head and said, "I don't like this wand, but its infinite magic and powerful force can indeed help me fight Voldemort."

William nodded slightly and returned the Elder Wand to Dumbledore.

He quickly recounted the whole story to Dumbledore, and then asked:

"Grindelwald went north of the North Sea, does that mean the Arctic?"

Dumbledore seemed to remember something and smiled:

"He's lying to you. It's not that far, at most the coast of Beihai."

"That old geezer really was the one who seduced him," William continued.

"Why is the Kraken called the Kraken?"

Grindelwald refused to answer the question, so William had to ask Dumbledore.

"The Kraken attacked the owner of the Deathly Hallows a long time ago."

Then, one day, someone chained it and trapped it underwater in that area of ​​the sea.

Chains... This is treating the Kraken like a dog.

William clicked his tongue slightly; another Merlin-like figure.

"Who is that person? Could it be one of the Four Giants?"

"I don't know, but we can guess," Dumbledore said, his eyes deep.

"Among the many ghosts of Hogwarts, there are quite a few ghosts from the era of the four great masters."

Barrow the Blood Man once told me that a giant octopus with tentacles attacked Hogwarts but was driven back by Slytherin.

Dumbledore said in a deep voice:

"Three of the four leaders eventually left Hogwarts, and no one knows where they went."

But Hufflepuff stayed behind, and she left behind a few words.

She said Slytherin went north of the North Sea.

Then, many years later, the siren was discovered in the North Sea.

We can speculate that Slytherin was there and trapped the octopus.

"If they were trapped, how did they escape?" William asked, frowning.

This time, Dumbledore didn't guess; he said it clearly:

"A wizard went to the North Sea and released it."

"Who?" William asked curiously.

"Descendants of Slytherin."

William hesitated for a moment, then blurted out, "Corvinus Gaunt?"

Dumbledore looked at William in surprise and slowly nodded: "Yes, it was him."
