Dumbledore looked at the group of guys chatting happily in front of him, and finally there was a hint of emotion in his eyes.
This scene was exactly what Luke told him at the time.
The time goes back to 5 minutes ago.
Luke looked at Dumbledore with a solemn expression and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, Professor. There is no point in worrying about this."
Dumbledore looked at Luke with some confusion. Facing the flickering of lights, Luke's face flickered. As the surrounding lights were being repaired one by one, Luke's face became brighter and brighter as a whole, and finally a bright smile illuminated his face.
"As long as they still ask for something from me, let alone that it has nothing to do with me in the first place, even if I really did it. They have to suffer the loss of being dumb, and they even have to find someone to carry it for me. pot."
Luke's smile was natural and honest.
"This incident does seem to be a slap in the face to the entire American aristocratic circle, but as long as the other party is still determined to hide under the water and oppose me, there are many ways to solve such a problem. Isn't it just being attacked? ? Just find a few reasons and you can easily satisfy everyone."
Luke said this and Dumbledore understood.
Essentially, I just threw a few punches to save face, and then forcefully said that I had punched him back. As for the so-called beating back, whether it really beat out a pig's head or cast a life-killing curse eight kilometers away is not that important.
Anyway, the vast majority of people don't know the real and accurate news, so they can accept this kind of thing.
"But, the matter is so big after all..."
Dumbledore seemed hesitant to speak, after all, this matter involved the lives of many nobles. In Dumbledore's opinion, this was an absolute big deal. If such a thing happened in the UK, then a group of nobles might even unite and go crazy enough to put pressure on the Ministry of Magic. They could even say that whoever can solve this matter can become the next Minister of Magic.
Best of all, you can even start tomorrow.
It's normal to have such thoughts. And it was impossible for him to think that a person with certain criminal suspicion could still be treated well.
But in fact, Luke is just a suspect after all. Moreover, the members of the Tripkard, Skye, and Enwy families were not injured. Then even if it was really Luke who did it, everyone wouldn't fall out. In other words, it makes no sense for others to fall out with Luke. Luke himself didn't have a good look towards them.
So, there is nothing that cannot be discussed.
"By the way, Professor, is there something wrong with Stuart?"
Luke looked at Stewart who was left alone in the distance. Although the expression on his face was still normal, he even still looked calm and elegant. But in Luo Ka's emotional perception, this guy can be regarded as "two forces fighting, almost wanting to leave first."
It's a pity that I can't leave.
"I really think it's still too late to run away now." Dumbledore looked at Stewart aside and said with some regret, "That weak magic wave is indeed hidden. But when it is released in an open and unobstructed place like the ballroom, It’s still a little too hasty.”….
Luke looked at Stewart and then at the tall old man beside him.
"Professor, I am asking, is there a possibility that he is not sure that he can escape from your hands?"
"But I have no intention of stopping him."
Dumbledore smiled evilly, this old man still maintained a quite childlike innocence after all.
Luke shrugged upon hearing this. He had learned to express his emotions in this way not long after he came here.
"It's up to you. They don't care that much about your behavior anyway. There's nothing wrong with you being strong, but everyone knows how to get you to help without offending you."
Dumbledore did not deny what Luke said. Instead, he winked and said with a smile: "My lovely student, I don't think this is a bad thing. Because he can not offend me and help me." If you want something, then I can’t do anything.
What. "
"Then trust me, Professor, I will definitely give you a price you can't refuse." Luke said as if joking, "Maybe it can even allow you to break through the bottom line."
Dumbledore did not comment on this, but this performance was undoubtedly the result of a series of transformations made by Luke.
If such a person cannot devote himself to politics, then it would be good to become an excellent bargaining chip.
At this moment, three figures slowly appeared at the gate. It seemed that the discussion between the three people had reached a conclusion.
The moment the three of them approached the hall, the three of them quickly took action and controlled Stewart, who stood up to greet them, in place.
"Stuart! You traitor!" Don Tripcard's face turned red, and even his neck was congested and discolored. The look on his face was sad rather than angry. "I sincerely want to accept you into this group. Your family has a long history. The other half of history and noble blood deserves our acceptance. With just a few small modifications, you can become one of us."
"But your betrayal hurts us, hurts the entire American wizarding community! We can no longer accept you as one of us."
Tripcard's grief and anger at being betrayed is quite moving. In such an atmosphere, the golden hair on the old man's head seemed a little depressed.
"There is no need to talk nonsense with this kind of person, Lord Tripcard." The wand in Saphiel's hand flashed with red light, which made her look particularly dangerous.
Of course, beauties pay attention to their own image at all times. Even when he was angry, he showed off his beauty very well, and even a little trace of his active concave shape could be seen.
Of course, just a little bit. Luke thought he could ignore it.
"I'm ashamed of your betrayal." Saphiel looked at Stewart with disdain. "Many people are telling me that Stewart is a family full of honor, and your contribution to the entire North American wizarding world is obvious to all. But you today , and destroyed all the glory left by your ancestors!"
"Back then, they didn't succumb to the head of the Gaunt family, but today you succumbed to a group of thugs who don't know what to say!"….
Her righteous words make people feel that she is really standing on the moral high ground.
Baxter Envi, on the other hand, looked annoyed and gloomy.
"I'm different from the two of them, Stuart. I didn't trust you from the beginning." Baxter Envi said sadly, "But because your joining has no substantial impact on me, so I don't Stop it. But my intuition always makes me feel that something is wrong. When you walked into this ballroom today, I felt that my crisis sensor was telling me something."
"I kept an eye on you as closely as possible, but I didn't expect that you would actually do something like this. I have to say that you are really quite powerful."
After saying this, his tone suddenly became angry and hateful.
"But you bastard, do you hate me for teasing you back then? You bastard actually killed most of the family members who were loyal to me. You will definitely die today, bastard. I told you that even if Merlin is reborn, he won't be able to keep you!"
Such annoyance and resentment do not seem like hypocrisy. It does look like his loss was severe.
What else could Stewart do in the face of such accusations? He couldn't even defend himself. Because someone didn't seem to hear his voice, they silently sealed his mouth.
Damn it. This is not a defensible trial.
Stewart didn't know which link went wrong, but now it seemed that even though he was careful, he still fell into other people's ways. Let others treat it as a gun in your hand.
His mind began to spin rapidly, but he couldn't think of any good solution. After all, the light of the wands in the hands of the three opponents has lit up, and they are ready to kill Stewart and make him a dead Stewart.
.
Then he saw Luke and gave Luke a pleading look.
He was begging this distant relative in front of him to save him. Although he did something wrong. And the reason for doing the wrong thing was still jealousy of the distant relative in front of him. He had to admit, this was a very bad thing.
But the blood between them is thicker than water!
They are real relatives!
As if aware of Stewart's gaze, the three people who were preparing to carry out the trial did not take action immediately. They seemed to be waiting for Luke's opinion, which was a sign of respect for Luke.
This kind of treatment is obviously still shocking and enough to make people feel jealous, but maybe not many people will be able to see this after all.
Luke naturally noticed Stewart's gaze. Was he angry? Of course angry. You must know that although he himself has no actual injuries, others are offending him by riding on his face like this. It also made him feel very unhappy.
"I want to ask..." Luke's voice sounded faintly, causing everyone's eyes to focus on him, and his tone itself did not give people the feeling that he would plead for Stewart, "Although Pat Stewart is a bastard who is out to get me. I have no problem with you enforcing your own punishment, but I still have to ask.”….
"Does the Stewart family still have a bloodline after Pat Stewart's death?"
As soon as this question came out, the three people over there breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, such problems did not make them too embarrassed. But obviously, this isn't a great question either. The situation they most wanted to see did not happen.
The other people felt a little strange, but Saphire Skye really felt a little weird. She and Luke hadn't been together for long. But every choice Luke made was basically not the best choice she expected, but it was often not the worst one he expected.
This made her feel regretful but also felt that these were not unacceptable. If you think about it from another perspective, this choice is often beneficial to Luke, but it is not the most beneficial.
What on earth was Luke thinking? Saphiel Skye didn't quite understand it himself.
"Yes." Tripcard told Luke very clearly, "He has a biological son. That child can inherit the bloodline of the Stewart family."
Wizarding families are often sparse. Six generations of single generations and seven generations of single generations are everywhere in the wizarding world. If a couple can have two children, it can be regarded as a blessing from their ancestors.
So this kind of news still made Luke glance at Stewart in front of him in surprise. Let’s leave aside the fact that this guy who has a child is still lusting after other women’s bodies. But if this guy can raise a child at this age, then in a sense, he is also a talent among wizards!
After Stewart heard this, he knew that his death was coming, and he began to struggle desperately, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.
"In view of your betrayal to us. You will be killed by us here. In view of the fact that you have completed the recommended task well, the conditions originally promised to you will continue to be fulfilled. In view of Lord Gaunt's request, your child will live Come down and become the next head of the family."
Tripcard announced their trial so casually. But they can't kill the man right here. They have already discussed the verdict. But the trial process still has to go through.
Being able to go through this process itself means that the Stewart family has been officially included in the ranks of the nobles.
Although their ancestors, in addition to the lady with ancient blood, there is also a No-Maj ancestor who contains wisdom. Of course, from now on, that ancestor is no longer a No-Maj, but a miserable Squib.
"Their trials are really crude and arrogant."
Luke whispered mercilessly into Dumbledore's ear. This also shows that the relative independence of the nobles has reached a considerable level in the United States. They can decide the life or death of such a person of considerable status and status through their own trial.
And the Magic Congress didn't even have room to comment.
"We are still playing within the framework stipulated by the Ministry of Magic, but the American nobles have just started a new one. It's incredible that they haven't started a large-scale struggle yet!"
Luke clicked his tongue in admiration at this scene. Dumbledore shook his head slightly. ….
He was somewhat regretful. Everyone in front of me can be regarded as someone from the education field. As a half-comer, Dumbledore still felt sorry for him.
"Now you can enjoy the ownership of that part of Yinfa Mo Ni with peace of mind."
Dumbledore asked: "Will Yinfa Morni also become part of your plan?"
"I have to think carefully about how to make it have the greatest effect." Luke blinked, "Although I encountered two dangers and almost lost my cute little life once. But from now on Judging from it, I still got a lot of things, such as the position of school director."
"And the love between two women? I'm not saying, Luke, maybe you really should restrain yourself? You are still a child... It is too early for you to be exposed to this kind of thing."
"It's not that I doubt whether you can control your desires, but you have to know that women who like you at your age, except for your peers, generally have mental defects. I'm worried that they can't control it. Myself."
Dumbledore's words were full of worry, but his tone was full of teasing and teasing. He is an old man and a wise man. Although there were some things that he couldn't see clearly due to the position he had been in, it didn't mean that he didn't understand anything.
He could see Luke's yearning for a mature big sister and the yearning for the little loli beside him. But Luke was able to control his desires. After all, not everyone gives in to their inner beast.
But among the girls around Luke, at his age, even Saphiel Skye was just a simple little girl in his eyes. The girls around Luke all want to have him. At the very least, you must leave a mark of your own on him that can scare others away and be used to declare your independence.
This means that Luke's situation is not actually safe. At least his virginity was indeed not safe.
"Professor," Luke looked at Dumbledore in front of him with a look of contempt and novelty, "I didn't know you were such a nasty person before."
Although he said the word 'obscene', Dumbledore did not hear any derogatory connotation from Luke. So he happily accepted this evaluation.
"But anyway, you came to ask me to deal with emotional entanglements between men and women. I think this should be beyond the scope of your knowledge." Luke looked at Dumbledore up and down, and then he looked at it like this Dumbledore's face became increasingly ugly. Then he gave himself a proud smile.
The interaction between the two of them was never hidden from the three people watching all this. Although they have to focus a certain amount of attention on their men imprisoning Stewart. But this is not a delay.
"It seems that the relationship between these two people is much better than what we investigated."
Baite Enwei said with some fear. Again, although Luke is difficult to deal with, he is still a child after all. But if Dumbledore was by his side, things would be completely different. This means that the old man is really standing behind Luke Gunter, which will make many conspiracies disappear. ….
He ran from England to France and then to the United States and only experienced three assassinations? Think of something good!
"This is normal. Although Luke Gaunt is a prominent figure in the small organization founded by the heir of the Malfoy family, let's not talk about whether it is just children's play. Just because he is not the leader, So that Dumbledore won't be too hostile to him."
Saifei nodded and said this, but obviously, what she said could not be said to the point, it could only be said to be completely distorted.
Tripcard said nothing. He had already expected this situation. Different from the two young men behind him. As an old man, Tripcard could see that Dumbledore
When Duo Zai looked at Luke, there was a lingering kindness in his eyes. That is the care of the elders for the younger ones.
But such things have no impact on what they want to do. After all, all they have to do is make a simple request.
The chips have already been prepared.
So he strode towards the direction of Luke Gunter, and Tripcard even had a trace of solemnity on his face.
"Lord Gunter, I'm sorry to frighten you." Tripcard sincerely apologized to Luke, "The main reason why something like this happened today was due to my review errors and poor supervision. I will apologize for my mistakes. Responsible."
Luke smiled with satisfaction after hearing this and said: "I believe in Mr. Tripcard's responsibility, but please forgive me, tonight's things are still too exciting for a child after all. So if you don't have anything else to do, , then I will go back and take a nap first to relax my tense spirit."
Dumbledore listened to the conversation between the two people, shook his head helplessly, and then walked to another place with his wine glass. One of these two guys said that he would compensate me, and the other said that if the compensation is not enough, you have to pay more, or I will leave first. This kind of conversation was really boring to Dumbledore.
These nobles always package themselves in various ways. No matter how disgusting the words come out of their mouths, they still have the beauty of a sonnet.
Therefore, being a nobleman is not only a technical job, but also a technical job in itself.
Eating and waiting to die? That's no problem, as long as you can understand the spirit of "I won't care about the flood after I die."
Neither of them cared about Dumbledore's departure, and they were even happy for Dumbledore to leave. After all, it was a bit too exciting for the nobles to discuss dirty deals between nobles in front of a strong man who was neutral in every sense of the word and had the strength to remain neutral.
"Oh, you're right, you really should rest, but unfortunately, I didn't tell you one thing just now." Tripcard looked regretful, as if it was true, "There is indeed another member of the Stewart family. Descendants. But unfortunately, this little princess will be half a year old later this year. She is still a long way from being able to truly take on the responsibilities of a family. But Yinfamouni Magic Academy is the most important talent training base in the United States. After all, it is a bit too much to let a little girl of half a year old be the chief school manager.”….
"Ah! Master Tripcard! You didn't tell me such an important thing." Luke had a headache on his face, and then after thinking for a moment, he said helplessly, "Unfortunately, then we may have to let Pa Ted Stewart has served his crime well. Although he is a scumbag who wants to harm us, he is still a qualified school director."
After listening to Luke's words, Tripcard silently shook his head and said: "I don't think so, Lord Gunter, you have to understand that a person who has betrayed once but has not received any punishment will not hesitate. I chose to betray me for the second time. I am a coward, and I will never let someone who has betrayed me get the chance to betray me for the second time."
Although he acted kindly when he said this, no one would be so stupid that he could not hear his strong murderous intention. It can be seen that if Luke insists on keeping Stewart tonight, of course he can still keep it, but he will definitely lose all the good relations with Tripcard. Tripcard was never a pleasant man.
What are you dreaming about if you expect him to be merciful and let go of those who have offended him?
"Then I'll listen to you. But you also know that the location is not determined by us."
Luke shook his head with regret. What he said is true. There is no problem for him to inherit his share of the position of chief school director, but if he wants to inherit the remaining part, he must get The support of others.
"We will try our best to help the person who deserves this position get this position."
Tripcard said sternly: "Maintaining stability is in itself an obligation for us as nobles."
It can only be said that his shameless aura made Luke feel truly powerful.
He is worthy of being a guy who can thrive in the world's aristocratic circles. If I give him a chance to truly enter the circle of ancient nobles, he might really be able to seize it.
Of course, he probably already knew the necessary procedures, such as recognizing new ancestors, and was mentally prepared for it.
"Okay! Master Tripcard's sense of responsibility is really impressive! How could I not help such a person!"
Luke stretched out his hand, and Tripcard's big hand took it without hesitation.
Both of them know that they will have considerable opportunities in the future, but of course, there will be no less troubles at all.
……………………
next day
U.K.
"Oh ho ho, Merlin's beard! What is the little guy from the Gaunt family doing? Why is he suddenly hanging out with Tripcard, a nouveau riche? Isn't he short of money?"
An old woman looked at the group of people in front of her with undisguised sarcasm on her face.
"Is this who you value? Having fun with a bunch of nouveau riche?"
And the nobles around her, headed by Lucius, collectively fell into silence. Of course, their silence was not really about being ashamed of Luke's behavior. For them, such a thing would only cause a little confusion at most. This confusion is simply not worth mentioning to them. ….
"Luke must have his reasons." Ollivander glanced helplessly at the somewhat crazy old lady. He knew that the old lady was dissatisfied with the group of people in front of her. Because her child was driven crazy by a few of these guys.
It can only be said that the internal fighting that year still left indelible damage among them. If we want to heal this kind of damage, we will most likely have to wait until the next generation, or even the next generation. But if there is any intention to obstruct it, then who knows when it will be restored.
Mrs. Longbottom looked at the group of guys in front of her and sneered: "I've given you a good start. I can see that they really care about your living conditions. Now it's up to you whether you want to accept their kindness. .”
After saying that, she stood up and prepared to walk out, but when she walked out, she finally stopped.
"I would like to see if you succumb to reality? Or will you stick to your own character?"
Putting these words on the ground, the capable old lady walked out without even looking at the group of guys behind her.
Ollivander watched Mrs. Longbottom leave, looked at the group of people in front of him, who were basically from all the other families except the Wesla family, and said seriously: "I actually don't have any prejudice against this, but you also You know, our family is indeed not short of money. If you need my help, just ask. I will maintain certain contact with an American noble family. Oh, to be honest, we have always been in contact, after all, they are also manufacturing The Staff Master Family."
After expressing his position, the old man also chose to leave in a hurry. He knew that everyone in this group of people would sneer at Luke's actions. Then a large number of people will choose to go home and establish a deeper cooperative relationship with an American family that they already have a relationship with. The remaining few will stick to themselves.
As for the outcome of that small group of people? So who knows? It has nothing to do with him as an old man.
As he walked out, he stroked his goatee with a bright smile on his face.
"Now I can discuss with the old guy about the ownership of special wand flow circuit 15. Oh, I think Tripcard will definitely help me realize this wish!"
His voice was not deliberately lowered. Everyone present should be able to hear what he said. At the same time, his words will inevitably have an impact on some people.
This is a new world, accept it or resist it.
……………………
"What on earth do you want to do?!"
Baite Enwei looked at the old man in white in front of him with an unusually angry expression.
"You killed all my people. Even if you want me to be freed from suspicion, the price is too high!"
Baite Enwei's dissatisfaction with the man in front of him was already written on his face. He had managed to win over those people, but now, letting this guy do this, there were countless variables added for no reason.
Who knows whether the next person will support him after the current head of the family dies, or even whether they will still support him is hard to say.
"Only in this way can you truly get rid of suspicion."
The old man in white looked at Baite Envi who was like a furious lion, the expression on his face did not change at all. Just smile indifferently.
"Go away from the suspicion!" Baite Enwei is not a fool. He can clearly feel that there is something more weird behind this matter. It might even be for his own good or not.
"Calm down Enwei." The old man in white said with a smile, "I can guarantee that they will still support you."
As he spoke, the smile on his face became even more mysterious.
Baite Enwei looked at his expression and let out a breath, but he didn't look relaxed.
"Their property. I want 70%."
Baite Enwei sat on his chair and made a 'seven' gesture. .
I don't update
