The Death Eater named Avery froze, and said in his heart: Do you think everyone has a will of steel like you?
Breaking free from the Imperius Curse is outrageous! You know, it's not a small character who casts a spell on him, but a contender for the Minister of Magic, Barty Crouch. Barty Jr has done the almost impossible.
Because of this, he has a very high status among the Death Eaters.
Having said that, Avery must also stand up and say something, or if he is deemed useless by the master, it will be finished.
So he patted his chest and assured Voldemort that his control over Karkaroff was infallible. If something went wrong, he was willing to be punished.
Hearing what he said, Barty Crouch Jr also looked away. Also, the probability of the Imperius Curse being broken is extremely low.
As for the Karkaroff they mentioned, it was naturally Durmstrang's principal, Ingor Karkaroff. As a traitor, he should have been executed to shock others. But when Voldemort tortured him, he accidentally got a piece of news: the Triwizard Tournament was going to resume.
As the headmaster, Karkaroff naturally had some residual value to squeeze out, so Voldemort spared his life, but also ordered his subordinate little Avery to use the Imperius Curse to control him.
Wait until Voldemort's plan is over before killing him.
After Barty Jr. finished speaking, other Death Eaters came forward one after another, recounting what they had done this week and asking questions to their colleagues.
Exactly the same as the company's weekly summary. However, since "President" Voldemort was not the kind of chatterer, the meeting went very quickly. After ten minutes, the Death Eaters had nothing to say.
As a rule, now it was Voldemort's turn to speak. He will give new orders to his subordinates. But Voldemort remained uncharacteristically quiet. He crossed his slender fingers and looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling.
Voldemort did not speak, and no one dared to speak or make other unusual movements.
After a while, when his subordinates grew more uneasy, he finally spoke.
"Everything is going well and I think it's time for that plan too - this room is empty."
He didn't specify which plan it was, but the Death Eaters at the core knew that their master was fighting Azkaban's idea.
After Voldemort's comeback, there was a shortage of people. Although this problem has been temporarily solved by joining forces with external forces, it is ultimately a cure for the symptoms rather than the root cause.
In Azkaban, many of Voldemort's loyal subordinates are imprisoned. As long as they are released, the problem will be solved.
"Master, I am willing to go to Azkaban for you to negotiate with the dementors..." Little Crouch, who sat down to Voldemort's left hand, volunteered, hoping to meet the dementors as a negotiator.
"No." This time Voldemort responded rather quickly.
"Dementors are the ultimate evil creatures, and if they don't have enough strength, they will only be used as nourishment."
In the face of his most loyal men, Voldemort showed extraordinary patience.
"So, this time I will personally go to Azkaban and bring freedom to the servants there!"
The Death Eaters breathed a sigh of relief. They were really worried about being sent to Azkaban by Voldemort.
The Lucius family assembly finally ended, and the Death Eaters left Malfoy Manor one after another. In the dead of night, an owl flew up from the manor and disappeared into the night.
...
"Welcome to Gryffindor! Drink up, we're going to have a blast tonight!"
After the scores came out, the Hogwarts students fell into a sea of joy. In this joyous atmosphere, it would be a pity if there was no grand party.
But considering the identity of Cedric Hufflepuff, this party is probably not going to be the end. Since Hufflepuff's common room doesn't allow people from other houses to enter, Hi is just Hufflepuff's student Hi.
Something unexpected happened.
Cedric said he could choose Gryffindor Tower as the venue for the celebration if there was no objection. The Hufflepuff lounge is not for outsiders; Ravenclaw's little wizard likes to be clean, and it doesn't seem like a good idea to have a party there; as for the Slytherin lounge, that's not to mention. So Gryffindor Tower is really the best place to celebrate.
The little wizards of Gryffindor were overjoyed when they heard the news, and the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students also had smiles on their faces. Although many Badger House students feel a little pity, they are not so pity to think that more people can celebrate Cedric's victory.
The only ones suffering were the Slytherin students. But there is no way, who made their popularity so bad? Cedric did not forbid them from participating in the celebration, as long as they were willing to save a little face, they could also enjoy the joy.
The Gryffindor Tower that Cedric found, can be said to be the greatest common divisor of several colleges is also the most suitable place for parties.
"Come on, Tom, let's go have fun together!" Cedric squeezed in front of Tom with a flushed face and put his arms around his neck.
"Okay, okay, but you let go first!" Tom was almost out of breath after being restrained, so he could only nod again and again.
"Okay! Friends, let's go!" Cedric shouted, and the other little wizards in the stadium responded with cheers. Everyone sang and danced to Hogwarts Castle. Along the way, people set off fireworks from Wesley's Magic Tricks from time to time.
"I'm really surprised that you made this choice." Tom said, looking at Cedric's handsome face.
"What happened?" Cedric stopped his waving arm and turned to look at Tom.
"You're willing to choose Gryffindor Tower as the place to celebrate... I mean, you're a Hufflepuff."
Cedric shrugged, "It doesn't matter which academy I'm in. If I like, I can even stay in the Potions classroom."
"Then Professor Snape will surely teach you a lesson you will never forget."
Both of them laughed.
"Really," Cedric's expression became serious after laughing, "I do this for my own reasons."
At this point Cedric looked very serious.
"Tom, you don't think the students at Hogwarts are a little too...too..."
"Cut apart?"
"That's right, it's just this word, the four academies are really too separated." Cedric nodded, "Gryffindor and Slytherin are in trouble, let's not talk about Ravenclaw and Hercules. Isn't the relationship between Chipacci so friendly?"
