Chapter 306: Chapter 306 The impending war
"Ah... Amelia?" Fudge was so scared that he almost jumped up, and asked stutteringly, "Why are you here?"
"I am carrying out the few excellent administrative directions of the previous minister." Amelia Bones said calmly.
"In view of the good relationship between Count Dracula and the teachers and students of Hogwarts in the past, the decision-making group of the Ministry of Magic believes that he is a powerful force that can be won; and Count Dracula's identity determines that I must come here in person to negotiate..."
"However, I didn't expect that during our negotiation, I found a familiar name to visit."
Amelia stared at Fudge and said seriously: "Cornelly, don't you have any reflection on why you stepped down? The exposure of the vampire identity is just a trigger. The wizarding people have been dissatisfied with your inaction for a long time!"
"I was... I concealed the news of the mysterious man just to suppress the panic in the magic world!" Fudge argued stubbornly, "Who knew that after suddenly learning such shocking news, What will happen to those ignorant wizard families? Maybe the Death Eaters haven't started the turmoil yet, but they will start the turmoil themselves..."
"Don't make excuses, Cornelius, you are just afraid that you can't control the situation and don't want to lose your power." Amelia said, "You don't consider the people in the wizarding world at all, which is why Rufus and I must get rid of you."
"You are a liar!" Fudge shouted loudly, "Don't think I don't know that you are just for my position! You became the Minister of Magic, and Rufus Scrimgeour replaced you as the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. The biggest beneficiaries are you two!"
"Not everyone cares about power as much as you do, Cornelius." Amelia shook her head slightly.
"I remember you weren't like this before. Old Barty was supposed to be the Minister of Magic, but you happened to catch up with his son's accident and took over the position of Minister... You were very unpopular when you first took office, and you relied on writing letters to Headmaster Dumbledore every day to stabilize your position."
"But I don't know when you started to be obsessed with this position. Is it because power has brought you too many temptations?"
Amelia's eyes were filled with confusion, disappointment, contempt, and even disgust, which directly broke Fudge's psychological defenses.
"Why do you look at me like that!" Fudge shouted indignantly, "Are you sure that if you stay in this position for a few years, you won't become like me?"
"No matter what kind of person I become in the future, at least I am working for the stability of the wizarding world in this war!" Amelia said calmly, "I will personally negotiate with the vampires, you can go home and retire with peace of mind."
"No... I am unwilling..." Fudge murmured in a daze, "I am sure there will be a chance to become the Minister of Magic again... There must be..."
He suddenly looked at Dracula and said hopefully: "Count Dracula... Lord Count! I am now I'm your subordinate. It would be good for you if I became the Minister of Magic, right? "
"Even if you don't care about those benefits, it's very prestigious to have a Minister of Magic as your younger brother!"
"Amelia happens to be here. You can easily kill her or detain her, and then announce to the public that you have reached a cooperation with me personally. Then I will definitely have a better chance of becoming the Minister than Rufus Scrimgeour..."
The successive blows during this period almost made Fudge lose his mind. The position of Minister of Magic has become an obsession for him. If he died on the spot now, he would most likely become a ghost who is obsessed with becoming the Minister.
Looking at Fudge's ridiculous behavior of desperately seeking medical treatment, Dracula's mouth curled up a hint of interest.
Amelia Bones looked at Dracula with some concern and secretly made a defensive posture.
She was not sure whether the moody vampire lord would agree to Fudge's request for a little benefit or a little face... Unfortunately, the Auror who followed was stopped outside the castle by the vampire guards, otherwise she might have more confidence.
Just when Amelia was feeling uneasy, the smile on Dracula's face suddenly turned cold.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you call yourself my subordinate?" He said lightly, "Besides, this proposal is really boring... Do you really think I don't have subordinates of the Minister of Magic?"
Fudge and Amelia opened their eyes wide at the same time.
"I suggest you use your brains to think about why the living conditions of vampires in Romania are so much better than those in other countries?" Dracula asked with a chuckle, "Is it just because the wizards here have no prejudice against vampires?"
"Let me think... Well, Tesla, it's you!" He pointed to a high-level vampire with a goatee who was on duty outside, "You represent Dracula Castle and take some low-level vampires to England to cooperate with Ms. Bones at any time."
"By the way, how is Cedric's vampire talent and skills learning? If there is no problem, take him with you and let him go home to visit his parents and old friends..."
"Selena, help me pass a message to Lupin of the werewolf tribe next door-"
"Just say... let him go to England with those ambitious werewolves to fight Voldemort. Whether we can reverse the inherent impression of werewolves and vampires in the magic world in one fell swoop depends on this time!"
...
The war seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
No one expected the Death Eaters to act so quickly.
Shortly after Amelia Bones left Romania and returned to the British territory through the portkey, she was stopped by several Death Eaters before she could return to the Ministry of Magic.
"Yaxley, you are indeed a Death Eater!" Amelia looked at the man in front of her with blond hair and a gorgeous robe, her face was very ugly.
"Didn't you already know about this?" Yaxley stared at Amelia fiercely, his eyes showing no trace of anger. "Didn't the traitor Lucius Malfoy tell you my identity?"
"If I didn't have a few well-informed friends in the Ministry, I might have been caught by Scrimgeour by now..."
"Damn it! The war is about to begin, how can there still be people in the Ministry who can't see the seriousness of the situation?" Amelia stamped her feet and gritted her teeth, "My schedule was also told to you by those people, right?"
"Of course, who told you to arrange the arrest in secret?" Yaxley said coldly, "Others don't know that I'm a Death Eater. As long as they give out a few more Galleons, they can easily find out your schedule."
"It seems that you have been planning for a long time, and you are ready to find an opportunity to kill me, the new Minister of Magic, right?" Amelia asked.
"Of course, we can't let the Ministry of Magic and Dracula form an alliance." Yaxley sneered, "As long as we kill all of you here, no one will know how you died... Then we can completely frame your death on Dracula and completely destroy your alliance."
"Once you are removed as an obstacle, we will use the Imperius Curse to control an official of the Ministry of Magic and support him to take over your position as Minister of Magic."
"This method can kill two birds with one stone and let the Dark Lord easily control the entire Ministry of Magic!"
"You talk too much, Corban!" Avery, another Death Eater next to Yaxley, reminded, "It's better to get ahead of yourself. Let's get started."
Amelia took out her wand and winked at the Aurors who were acting as bodyguards around her.
The Aurors raised their wands and blocked Amelia to prevent her from being hit by the sudden spell.
"That's a good idea, but do you think you can hurt me with just a few of you?" Amelia's voice came from behind the many Aurors.
In fact, in addition to being a politician, she is also a very talented wizard with excellent spellcasting ability.
This kind of Death Eater posture obviously can't easily deal with her.
"We know you are strong, Amelia." At this time, Yaxley's voice sounded again, "So there is another big gift waiting for you!"
As soon as his voice fell, a large group of infernal corpses with stiff movements, ulcerated skin, and Yin Qi wrapped all over their bodies appeared behind him and surrounded him from all directions.
At the same time, many werewolves subdued by Voldemort rushed up with their teeth bared; there were also Dementors floating in the air in the distance...
It seemed that in the blink of an eye, this place became a dark creature army, drowning Amelia and the surrounding Aurors.
