Chapter 129 127. Bloodline Conflict

"I know you, a Muggle student who just graduated from Beauxbatons and was directly recruited to the Ministry of Magic because of your excellent grades and even exempted from the assessment. You have been very popular recently."

At the table next to Dumbledore and John, the two tables of guests who had been eating peacefully had a conflict for some reason. Their voices gradually became louder, and at this time they had attracted the attention of most people in the tavern.

The one who said this was a wizard wearing a dark purple robe and well-dressed. He had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and his seemingly flattering words were actually sarcasm.

The object of his ridicule was a young wizard opposite him. The wizard's face turned red and he snorted coldly.

"Hasn't the selection rules of the Ministry of Magic always been like this? Admission based on merit. Since they have decided that I have shown enough ability, of course they will give priority to hiring me. What are you embarrassed about? Because I took up your place?"

His words seemed to poke the pain of the purple-robed wizard, and his face obviously became extremely ugly.

"You are indeed a fresh-faced young man who just graduated from school. What do you think will happen if you enter the Ministry of Magic with your background? You will only be a handyman for the rest of your life!"

"Even if you are a handyman, it is better than some people who have a distinguished background but don't even have the qualifications to enter, right?"

The young wizard obviously grasped his pain point and wanted to expose his scars. The purple wizard's self-control was not very high, and he immediately drew out his wand in anger.

"You lowly dog! This is only in France! If the Ministry of Magic introduces the British system, then you, who are not even qualified to hold a wand, are not even qualified to shine my shoes!"

His words also deeply trampled on the self-esteem of the young wizard. He also drew out his wand angrily and confronted the purple wizard!

The companions of the two of them also raised their wands and stood up with fierce expressions. For a while, the atmosphere became tense.

The tavern was completely quiet, as if these two people were involved in some sensitive topic. Everyone shut their mouths and no one spoke.

Only the waiter and the bartender nervously ran over, half forcing and half appeasing the two groups to leave the pub, even waiving the meal fee.

After they left, the pub gradually returned to the noise, but the atmosphere was obviously different from before. Jon heard many wizards whispering and obscurely discussing topics related to bloodline.

Dumbledore's face became a little solemn. There were many people here, so he didn't talk much with Jon. Instead, after finishing dinner, he asked for a double room on the second floor of this pub.

Night is certainly not a suitable time to visit, they need to stay here for one night.

When they arrived at the guest room, Dumbledore shook his head and said.

"This is not a good sign."

"What about the conflict between those two people when we were having dinner just now?" Jon asked.

Dumbledore nodded: "Britain is very close to France, and the wizards of the two countries have the most frequent exchanges. After the Dark Lord completely dominated the British wizarding world, many Muggle-born wizards sensed the situation in advance and fled here."

Jon said thoughtfully.

"They brought the Dark Lord's system and policies here, allowing the pure-blood and half-blood wizards in France to see the benefits? This also deepened the bloodline conflicts here?"

"Not only that." Dumbledore added, "The British Muggle wizards who fled here will definitely squeeze out some of the resources and interests of the original French wizards, which will further intensify the bloodline conflicts. What's more, the French magic world is more conservative and more resistant to contact with Muggle-related things."

"As for the Muggle wizards, because the French Muggles are more obsessed with equality, these Muggle wizards are very disgusted with the current situation in the UK. We have received a lot of their assistance. This also makes the confrontation between bloodlines more and more acute. In the past two years, there have been more and more bloodline-related conflicts in the French magic world."

Voldemort's influence is spreading from Britain to France, and the first to bear the brunt is the closest France.

Some people have always said that Voldemort's pattern is not as good as that of the first generation of Dark Lord Grindelwald. After all, Grindelwald has set his sights on the future of the world's magic world from the beginning, and his influence also covers the whole of Europe and most of America, nearly half of the magic government.

In fact, Jon has always looked at this issue dialectically in his previous life.

The so-called pattern is just that they chose to obtain power in different directions at the beginning.

Grindelwald studied magic in the northernmost part of Europe, at the Durmstrang School of Magic in the north of the Scandinavian Peninsula.

Even though he was expelled later, the wizards and forces he initially came into contact with were basically from the Nordic magic world.

The magic government is different from the Muggle country. Whether it is influence or norms, it is far from comparable, and the population base of wizards themselves is also much smaller than that of Muggles. Therefore, although the magic government in Northern Europe is also established based on the Muggle state regime, the gap compared with those powerful magic governments is also huge.

After being expelled from school, he traveled to many places, including meeting Dumbledore in England, stealing Gregorovitch's Elder Wand in Germany, returning to Northern Europe to organize the Witch Party (the official name of the Saints), and so on.

After traveling around Europe, Grindelwald established his base in countries that deviated from several powerful magical regimes - with the Nurmengard Prison in Austria as the center, he began to launch a campaign against various magical governments in Europe. Guerrilla warfare even brought the war to North America.

In addition, his followers come from all over the world, many of whom are notorious dark wizards in their respective magical circles. And his ultimate ideals and political goals have completely harmed the interests of the vast majority of wizards-wizards just want to be content with the status quo, and do not want to violate the Statute of Secrecy and start a war with Muggles.

As a result, Grindelwald's influence also affected the whole world. After all, magical governments around the world were aware of his threat to the "Act of Secrecy".

Looking at Voldemort again, he attended Hogwarts when he was young. While at school, he had already won over a large group of like-minded "friends" with his own methods and personality charm. After graduation, he first stayed in the UK for a few years, and then Also traveling around the world.

During this period, he also relied on his theories to win over a large group of "allies", and then returned to Britain.

But from here on, there are differences in the ways in which Voldemort and Grindelwald obtain power.

Grindelwald wants to occupy a small magical regime, then use it to strengthen himself, and then slowly erode the powerful magical regime to unify the entire global magical world, and finally achieve his ultimate goal.

Voldemort, on the other hand, chose to start directly with the hardest bone to crack in the British wizarding world. At that time, he split his soul at least five times and became somewhat arrogant in his thinking.
