Hogwarts: Restore The Glory Of The Black Family
Chapter 24: Wizengamot, Joint Pressure
In the lobby of the Ministry of Magic, Cole walked out and looked around. The wizards of the Ministry of Magic were working normally and nothing major happened.
Cole did not go to Fudge's office, but went to the Auror Department. John's status in the Auror Department was not low now. In addition to the Black family, there were many Aurors attached to him.
After all, relying on the Ministry of Magic's salary alone, many wizards are still strapped for cash and cannot support their families solely on wages.
The treatment of John's team is well known to the Ministry of Magic. It is sponsored by the family and no one can find any reason to object.
Knock on the door and go in. John is taking care of things.
"Master, you are here."
Cole nodded in response and sat on the sofa in the office.
"Is anything big happening these days?"
"The Ministry of Magic is operating as usual. There is nothing major. A lot of people came today. The people below said they all went to Fudge's place."
John was standing beside him and being honest, Cole knew what happened to Ben, it must be Fudge who wanted to cause trouble.
"I understand. I'll go now. You can gather the people together and be ready at any time."
John didn't question it and immediately obeyed and went to summon the wizard.
In addition to his office, Cole took a leisurely stroll to Fudge.
When he opened the door, he saw Fudge and Dumbledore sitting together drinking tea.
"The minister is in a good mood. The principal is also here. I wonder if you want to see me for something important?"
Cole was not polite and sat down opposite Fudge, staring at Fudge, the greedy fat pig.
Dumbledore smiled and said nothing. Fudge glanced at Dumbledore and then said slowly:
"Cole, don't worry, let's try my black tea first. Dumbledore said it's good."
Cole watched Fudge wave his hand and a cup of hot tea was placed on the table.
But Cole didn't move, he just looked at Fudge and Dumbledore coldly, and the atmosphere instantly solidified.
Fudge couldn't help but swallow, but didn't dare to say a word.
"Principal, did the Black family fail to entertain you that day when you came to visit?"
Cole's words directly made Dumbledore's smile freeze slightly. He also knew that Cole was afraid that Cole would already know something if he suddenly called him here today.
"Cole, I am deeply sorry for what happened to your child, but you have to know that the harm caused by the Obscurus in the wizarding world for hundreds of years is unacceptable."
Dumbledore rubbed the ring on the man's hand and continued:
"It's been hard to settle down over the years, and you don't want to make trouble again, right?"
Cole smiled, the old bee was beating around the bush, wasn't he just talking about Ben being Obscurus.
Still want to kidnap me morally? Does the stability of the wizarding world have anything to do with my Black family?
"Mr. Dumbledore, I forgot to remind you that I will take care of the Black family's affairs myself and you don't need to worry about it."
He turned to look at Fudge again.
"There's no need for the Ministry of Magic to worry about it."
Cole refused forcefully. Dumbledore and Fudge had already been prepared. After these years of dating, they also knew what kind of person Cole was.
"Cole, you must know that past painful experiences tell us that danger must be contained in the bud, otherwise many people will be harmed."
Dumbledore started giving lessons again.
"Then I would like to ask Principal Dumbledore, why didn't you kill Voldemort when he was a student, so that not so many people would die in the future?"
Cole simply lifted the fig leaf. Dumbledore always had a strange sense of mission, but was hesitant to deal with things.
When the Dark Lord was mentioned, Fudge's face twitched and he did not dare to speak.
Dumbledore's eyes gradually became sharper, and he looked at Cole coldly.
Cole showed no signs of weakness and responded to the famous white wizard.
"What is there to be afraid of? All disasters are caused by the incompetence of those in power. I am capable of handling it. What position does the principal stand in telling me that he wants to kill my son?"
A huge amount of magic flowed around Cole, and the teacup on the table was shaking with ripples.
"Calm down Cole, I just asked you to come here to discuss and deal with this matter."
Dumbledore made no other movements, but looked at Cole quietly and said comforting words.
Cole was speechless for a moment. If the principal had a real duel with him, Cole wouldn't say anything.
However, Dumbledore has considerable strength, but he always thinks of other ways to solve problems.
This kind of underhand tactics made Cole very uncomfortable.
"Cole, you are also a member of the Wizengamot. You should know the criteria for opening a meeting. Let's go, someone is waiting."
As the chief councilor of the Wizengamot, Dumbledore certainly has the right to call meetings.
Cole did not expect that in this short period of time, Dumbledore would be able to convince those members. It seemed that the strength of the Black family had made some people afraid.
【Papapapa】
Cole applauded. "The principal is worthy of being a principal. He can think of recruiting people to put pressure on me in such a short period of time. It seems that the Black family's intransigence is not enough."
Cole stood up directly and walked towards the Tribunal. Cole had never participated in the Wizengamot Conference in all these years.
Unexpectedly, the first time I participated, I would be the one being judged.
Cole didn't intend to let Ben show up. Ben was still just a child, and he, as a father, had the responsibility to protect him from the wind and rain.
If he couldn't even protect his own son, he would really be in vain.
A group of three people hurriedly arrived at the trial court. There were already people sitting and waiting in the room.
Wizards from major pure-blood families, wearing red wizard robes, looked at Cole condescendingly.
In the crowd, Cole saw Lucius's presence.
At this time, Lucius looked at Cole with a complicated expression and anxiously stroked the scepter in his hand.
Fudge also sat in his own position, and Dumbledore took the chief position.
[Clang] With the sound of a hammer, the meeting officially started.
"Today's meeting was held to discuss the fact that Ben Black, as an Obscurus, seriously threatens the security of the wizarding world."
"Cole, do you want to defend Ben Muran's identity?"
Dumbledore's voice was carried through the speakers and echoed throughout the Inquisition.
"no disagreement."
Cole knew that his son was not Obscurus, but in the eyes of wizards, the magic power in the body could not communicate with the outside world, and it doubled as he grew older.
If not Obscurus, what else could it be?
Hearing Cole admit Ben Mo Ran's identity, everyone on the stage looked satisfied.
Many malicious looks followed.
Cole knew that the goal of these people was not only to eliminate the Obscurus, but also to tear a piece of flesh from the Black family.
"In this case, according to the wizard regulations, the way Obscurus is dealt with should be destroyed as soon as possible. Everything is to ensure the safety of wizards."
"Cole, do you have any objections?"
Dumbledore brought dozens of wizards to exert pressure and tried to decide a person's life or death in the Inquisition.
"Of course."
Cole responded loudly.
