Harry Potter and the Old Ones

"We are gathered here today to witness a historic moment." Cornelius Fudge read out according to the speech written by Tiera. "Today, the British Magical Federation is established! Today, I announce, The era of the Ministry of Magic has passed! Today, I declare that we will establish an independent government, one that is no longer dependent on the Muggle government, one that is not controlled by any reactionary forces, and a regime that belongs entirely to the people of the wizarding world. !”

After Cornelius Fudge finished speaking, he paused slightly, as if waiting for applause.

——But the situation was a bit beyond his expectation.

Cornelius Fudge's self-described good opening remarks were not approved by anyone, nor did he receive any applause.

"Pah, pah, pah, pah" Tiera, who was sitting in the audience seat, applauded calmly, seemingly not caring how abrupt his applause was in the silent hall.

But then, following Tiera’s applause——

"Pah, pah, pah, pah" Harry blushed and clapped vigorously in the audience.

Then came Ron and Hermione, then the other young wizards from Dumbledore's Army and some of their family members.

Then there are Dumbledore, Bathilda Bagshot, and the other wizards who have been carefully observing Dumbledore's attitude.

But even so, even though all of Tiera's friends and acquaintances expressed their approval of his ideas, these applause still seemed so pale in today's bustling crowd and numerous opponents.

"We are in, we are in the most difficult moment, we are in the darkest moment." After the applause died down, Cornelius Fudge continued to say in his unique passionate voice, "Yes. , darkness, the power of darkness is everywhere, and the power of darkness has spread like a plague in the land we love."

"Everyone must know it, everyone must know it," Cornelius Fudge said, "Voldemort is back!"

"Yes, I am calling him Voldemort, and I will also call him Voldemort. I am tired of calling him You-Know-Who anymore, or calling him the wizard who calls himself the Dark Lord." Cornelius Fudge said with high spirits. , looking at his expression, it was as if he was the one who defeated Voldemort, "In my opinion, he is just a loser, a coward, and a cruel idiot!"

While Cornelius Fudge was speaking according to the words in the speech script Tiera gave him, he was secretly frightened and broke into a cold sweat in his heart.

Tiera suddenly appeared this morning. While Cornelius Fudge was eating breakfast anxiously, Tiera suddenly appeared in the seat opposite him. Tiera was enjoying a breakfast exactly like hers. If If Cornelius Fudge hadn't reached for the pepper on the other side of the table, he might not have noticed Tiera's sudden appearance.

This situation is a bit too weird even in the magical world——

Cornelius Fudge didn't hear any sound or feel any movement at all before noticing Tiera's appearance.

"Little Mr. Lockhart?" Cornelius Fudge immediately put down the pepper in his hand and called out respectfully.

"General Secretary Fudge, good morning." Tiera greeted him politely, then put down the knife and fork in his hand, stretched out his hand across the entire dining table and shook hands with Cornelius Fudge, "I'm here to You sent me the transcript of today’s speech.”

"Speech?" Cornelius Fudge asked puzzledly, "But my speech has been prepared a long time ago, yes, I haven't shown it to you yet -"

"I have read it." Tiera smiled and said forcefully, "I think that one is inappropriate, so I sent you a new speech."

As he said that, Tiera closed her arms and pointed towards the plate where Cornelius Fudge had placed his breakfast——

When Cornelius Fudge lowered his head, he realized that his breakfast had long since disappeared, replaced by a stack of speeches that smelled like ink.

"There is not much time left for you." Cornelius Fudge heard Tiera say, "Please get familiar with it. I believe in your ability as a politician."

Then when Cornelius Fudge looked up and looked across again, Tiera disappeared, as if he had never appeared. There was no trace of eating on the table opposite, and the seats opposite were neatly inserted under the table. ,

Tiera's attitude meant that Cornelius Fudge had no right to reject the speech.

Therefore, although Cornelius Fudge felt that some of the wording and sentences in this speech were too strong and attracted hatred, he had to bite the bullet and continue reading.

Cornelius Fudge could only keep persuading himself that Tiera would not give up on her so soon.

After all, if she was killed by a revenge-seeking Death Eater or even Voldemort, Tiera would probably have a hard time finding an obedient and easy-to-control "General Secretary of the Magic Federation" like herself.

This is why Cornelius Fudge was able to muster up the courage to act in such a tough manner for the first time.

"It's not him we should be afraid of! We shouldn't be afraid of him! Because he is a remnant of the old era and a representative of the hateful conservative forces. What he represents is not only the power of black magic, but also the backward ideas of the old era. For example, with his ideas of pure blood supremacy and lineage theory, the wheel of history is rolling forward, and the pace of the times will never stop. We will eventually usher in a new future, but there are still challenges and challenges on our way forward. Bumpy." Cornelius Fudge continued to speak passionately, "For a conservative force like Voldemort, let him continue to be conservative! Let him be complacent with his stinking pure-blood theory! Because history is developing and moving forward! The old system must die, and the old system and backward ideas must be replaced by new things and advanced ideas. It will not shift due to personal will, it will not The conservative forces stopped advancing because an extremely powerful Dark Lord appeared."

"As I said before, the wheels of history will roll forward. Anyone or anything who tries to change or block the process of history will be ruthlessly crushed by the wheels of history, even if the dark devil——" Cornelius Fudge paused. , "Even Voldemort is the same! He and his group of Death Eaters will definitely disappear——"

"Do you mean, Minister Fudge, that our pure-blood family will also disappear?" Just as Cornelius Fudge was about to push his speech to its climax, a sharp and harsh voice suddenly interrupted Cornelius Fudge. During the speech, at the place closest to the rostrum, a young witch with a round face and a short and fat body suddenly stood up, held her head high, and stared at Cornelius Fudge, squeezed into a strip by the fat. Sewing eyes are full of resentment and anger——

"Dolores Umbridge." Tiera whispered, and then smiled sarcastically. His voice did not spread, but appeared in Dumbledore's ears, "Even if it's disguised, I don’t know how to look better.”

"Just now, Minister Fudge said that the wheels of history will roll forward and crush all the things of the old era. Does the Minister mean to drive out all our pure-blood families?" In the fight to beat the snake and follow the stick, he distorted the meaning of the other party's words. Umbridge is a good player in this regard, "No wonder Minister Fudge was able to invite the Muggle army. It turns out that he has surrendered to the Muggle government and wants to carry out another witch eradication operation against us."

"Ah!?" Cornelius Fudge was completely confused by the scene in front of him. He seemed to have not expected this situation at all, and looked at Tiera for help.

Tiera smiled and patted the non-existent dust on her knees, then slowly stood up——
