Chapter 244： manipulate

After giving the Death Eaters new WiFi passwords, Sean casually sat back to his seat.

It would be a lie to say that you are not nervous about acting in front of so many vicious dark wizards, but maybe it is because he usually gets along with Grindelwald and Dumbledore a lot, and Sean's emotions don't have much turbulence.

He leaned back on the chair, and Naja the bird snake slowly stuck her head out of his arms and enjoyed his touch.

The restless Death Eaters around them were more and more afraid to breathe. No matter what their IQ, these figures in the wizarding world always had a vision.

They also knew a little about Voldemort's plan for Sean more than a year ago. Although they didn't understand the particularity of this young wizard's body, they could at least understand the current situation.

Their masters not only mastered new bodies, but also inherited special talents including Parseltongue. Otherwise, magical creatures of the level of bird snakes would not be so docile.

There are already smart people thinking about the bloodline - has the master integrated the bloodline? He didn't lose Slytherin's blood, and at the same time integrated the special blood of that boy.

In fact, this is just a pretense put out by Sean, the purpose is to deepen the image of himself omnipotent in the eyes of the Death Eaters.

Bird snakes are not snakes at all, they have unique calls, and Parselmouth can't communicate...

While stroking Najia, Sean said casually, "Tell me what you have done this year."

The bodies of the Death Eaters tensed again. In order to rule the entire wizarding world in the future, they have been doing all kinds of things according to Voldemort's orders. However, Voldemort disappeared for a year, the organization that was not formed by faith has lost its vitality, and most of them have not paid much attention to those things in their hands.

Now that the master asked about these, many people have begun to get nervous.

Barty Crouch Jr stood up respectfully, and said with a slightly proud look: "Master, my father is currently preparing for the election of the new minister, and the voice is very high."

Sean nodded, but he was a little puzzled.

The current British Minister of Magic is still Cornelius Fudge, who took office in 1990. His predecessor, Millison Barnold, did a good job during his tenure, so everyone has great expectations for the next minister. .

Barty Crouch's original voice was very high, but for unknown reasons, he did not get the position of minister in the 1990 ministerial election, but lost to Connelly Fudge, who was not optimistic at the time.

The Minister of Magic does not have an expressly stipulated term of office, but it is generally more than five years. There will be a routine general election in July every year. Fudge has just been in office for three years. From the current situation, Fudge may become one of the shortest ministers since the founding of the Ministry of Magic.

Barty Jr continued: "After the accident at the Department of Mysteries last year, Fudge's ability to deal with problems has been questioned by many people, and some people say in private that Dumbledore also expressed disappointment with it - ha, Fudge for the sake of Keep your place, and have been running around the purebloods and Hogwarts lately."

The Death Eaters all let out sarcastic laughter.

"According to your instructions, Master, I have been promoting my father. At that time, pure blood families such as the Malfoys and Blacks will also stand for him. If there is no accident, he will become the new Minister of Magic."

Sean smiled and nodded in approval, then asked intimately, "What about you, my loyal friend."

Barty Jr. was very excited about Sean's praise. He lowered his head and approached Sean a little more, and found that the other party did not show dissatisfaction.

Little Barty, who felt that everything he had done was more valuable, replied with a grin: "At that time, my father's original position as the director of the Magic Law Enforcement Department will be vacated. There are two candidates for the director, one is from the Auror Office. Director Kingsley Shacklebolt, and secondly, Amelia Burns, Director of the Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic—I'm going to fill one of the positions vacated by those two."

Sean nodded, and then showed that he was thinking - in fact, he didn't know what to say, he didn't understand the plans of the Death Eaters before, and talking too much might be exposed.

No one dared to disturb his thinking. After a while of silence in the living room, Sean said with a smile, "Barty, I always trust your wisdom, and tell me what you think about the whole thing."

"Yes!" Little Barty became more and more excited. In fact, Voldemort rarely let his subordinates make suggestions. He also always believed that his far-sighted master had already thought about everything.

But the attitude of the other party now is obviously that he trusts himself more deeply!

Little Barty, who wanted to perform well in front of the master, carefully considered his thoughts while excited, and then said slowly: "Master, what you have asked us to do has always been to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic, and Most of the power-holding wizards at the Ministry of Magic are pure-blooded, and these are the ones who will help us when you reveal your abilities."

"So, I think we have to crack down on those pro-Muggle forces. I will definitely get it done with my father, and the important position of the head of the magic law enforcement department needs more consideration."

"According to the information I got, Shacklebolt has always been in contact with Dumbledore, and Burns has always been neutral - Dumbledore is always the ultimate enemy you need to step on, and I don't think his forces should be allowed to The Ministry of Magic has too much power, and if Shacklebolt takes office, the next head of the Auror Office is likely to be James Potter, who is also a **** Dumbledore force."

"Nice opinion, go on, Barty." Sean nodded approvingly.

Barty, who was encouraged, worked harder. He cleared his throat and continued: "After I become the director of the Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic, I can further install our members into the Ministry of Magic. Depending on your goals, I think the most The departments that need to put people in are the Muggle-Born Registration Committee, the Memory Cancellation Command and the British Chapter of the International Confederation of Wizards."

Screening bloodlines, managing conflicts with the Muggle world, and uniting with other forces... This is the way for the Death Eaters to strengthen their power and penetrate the grassroots. Sean narrowed his eyes slightly and gave Barty an approving look.

As expected of a wizard who has passed all 12 O.W.L.s, he is indeed intellectually responsible among the Death Eaters.

"Very good," Sean praised, "Barty, you've grown more mature over time."

"That's because of the brilliance of your wisdom, Master." Barty said respectfully.

"You can do it first, but the main point at the moment is to make your father a minister, and I will give you a more detailed plan for the subsequent arrangements." Sean gave a sloppy look.

"Follow your will, Master."

After Barty Jr., the Malfoys and the Lestranges also spoke out about what they were doing recently, mostly infiltrating the Ministry of Magic and investigating pro-Muggle wizards.

Then, Regulus stood up: "Master, the task you gave me has been cut off - the French side has cut off a lot of contact with me because of your previous concealment."

Bella and Barty Jr suddenly shouted: "Stupid and mean Frenchie!"

Sean did not express anger or surprise. The other party's words verified his previous speculation that the French Society for the Protection of Wizards' Rights and the Death Eaters had connections.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Regulus continued: "With all due respect, Master, they have become more and more arrogant recently, the Aiken family, who was originally responsible for contacting me, had an ambiguous attitude. The last time I contacted me was to question me. Was it a member of ours who kidnapped his son, and he's still asking about your whereabouts."

Sean sneered disdainfully: "It's always been like this...but they are too slow, I obviously gave them some small warnings..."

Sure enough, it was Voldemort who took the shot. It seems that there was something wrong with the cooperation between him and the other president... Regulus thought to himself.

Bella stood up dissatisfied: "Master, do you want me to go to France and teach them a real lesson! You, you are too kind..."

"Don't worry, Bella," Sean waved his hand casually, "That's really important, but I have more important things to do now..."

"Master?" The Death Eaters looked over suspiciously.

The corners of Sean's mouth raised some arcs: "It's very important, you will finally understand my intentions."

"Yes, Master." The Death Eaters lowered their heads, and no one asked again.

Sean thought for a while, and then ordered, "Regulus, Lucius, the matter in France will be handed over to the two of you for the time being, and use your family's right to speak to obtain information."

"Yes," the two nodded in agreement, and Lucius asked slightly uneasily, "Master, I don't know, what information do we need to investigate? The main purpose of that organization is to rule the French wizarding world and liberate pure-blood wizards. , is there something wrong with this?"

"They are hiding more secrets... Instead of revealing the news that I have returned, you can use the fact that I disappeared as a cover, and then have a deeper communication with them."

This is for us to be spies... Regulus and Lucius agreed after a little hesitation.

"Okay, that's it for today," Sean, who was worried that talking too much would risk exposure, issued an order to evict guests, "Go back, my friends, the arrival of a new era requires more effort from you, and when it comes to that When the time comes, you will be the masters of this world."

"We're all looking forward to it."

The Death Eaters put their hands on their chests to show their respect, and then disappeared one by one into the darkness of the night. In the end, only the Malfoys, Bella, and Barty were left.

"Do you know why I kept you here?" Sean asked casually.

Barty's eyes were gloomy, and his tone became cruel: "Master, among those people, there are despicable traitors!"

"As sharp as always, Barty," Sean changed his sitting position and said in a nonchalant tone, "I can't guarantee that everyone will be loyal to me, only you, I am willing to trust without reservation."

He looked at Barty Jr. and Bella, deliberately ignoring the pale Malfoys next to him.

The two took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement on their faces: "I will always be your most loyal servant."

Upon seeing this, the Malfoys immediately knelt down on one knee to express their loyalty.

Sean smiled noncommittally, and he lifted Barty and Bella up and let the Malfoys kneel.

Lucius' face was pale, his lips trembled slightly, and his heart was bitter, knowing that the terrifying wizard in front of him had already understood his thoughts.

Those behaviors that are unwilling to contribute may also be seen by the Dark Lord, this is going to beat our husband and wife...

But there was still a trace of happiness in his heart. He and Narcissa were kept here, which meant that they still had value in the Dark Lord's heart. If he was loyal, then the previous things could probably be written off.

But if he moves his mind again that he shouldn't, he may be greeted with the same ending as Dolokhov...

Thinking of this, he knelt down even more devoutly.

Sean didn't care about the behavior of the couple, he was trying to win over the most fanatical believers first, and let the other party find out the traitor among the Death Eaters.

In other words, he wasn't even sure if there were any traitors among the Death Eaters, but this kind of behavior could effectively ensure that there weren't too many small groups with different minds in this organization.

If these people discuss and discuss in private and discover their own flaws, wouldn't they be unlucky?

And, if there were any traitors among the Death Eaters, he could find them in advance. If it is other forces, such as the French Wizards Rights Protection Association, he can solve it in advance. If it was Grindelwald or Dumbledore, he could save the traitor's life.

Thinking like this, Sean showed a casual look: "I think you must be wondering why the great Dark Lord didn't find out those traitors himself?"

Bella and Barty looked at each other and finally nodded.

Sean spread his hands: "As you can see, I have a new body. This body is too weak... But, his potential is even better. Ha-a lot of things have to be done all over again."

The two understood what Sean meant: because he changed his body, he lost some of his original abilities, such as Legilimency. But the master's words contained a deeper meaning.

When he realizes the potential of this body, the Dark Lord will be even stronger!

Thinking of this, the two almost trembled with excitement.

Sean patted the two of them on the shoulders with satisfaction: "The task of finding out the traitors is handed over to you, Bella, Barty, will you disappoint me?"

The eyes of the two of them were almost glowing frantically, and they held their heads up: "Master We have decided to give you a satisfactory answer."

"Very good, very good," Sean nodded, then pretended to have just seen the Malfoys. "Hey, look, isn't this my friend, the famous Malfoy family?"

"Lord, Master, you are joking, the reputation of the Malfoy family is not worth mentioning in front of you." Lucius twitched the corner of his mouth with difficulty.

"Oh, Lucius, you are as good as ever when it comes to flattery." Sean said coldly.

"Master, master..." Sweat dripped from Lucius' forehead.

Sean patted his face and said warmly, "I'll give you a chance to make up for it, Lucius."

"Thank you for your kindness! Whatever you tell me!"

"You have a nice son, don't you?"

The Malfoys froze in place, then moved forward with trembling knees.

"Master, master, Draco, he's just a child!" Lucius pleaded.
