Chapter 162 160 A Tombstone Stained with Sin and Blood

Chapter 162 160. Tombstone stained with sin and blood

The temporary parliamentary meeting, the circular conference room was full of wizards.

The three wizards who hold the highest power in the French magic world, the Minister of Magic, the Speaker of the Wizard Council and the Grand Judge of Wizards, sat in the only gap in the circular conference room, facing everyone.

This conference room is not a closed room. It is surrounded by glass walls. Outside is the office hall of the French Ministry of Magic.

Almost all visitors to the Ministry of Magic will pass through here, so every process in the meeting will not be concealed, and anyone can watch. Only the most important meetings in the French Ministry of Magic will use this conference room to show the fairness of issuing various policies.

At this time, the glass wall was already surrounded by wizards, and there were many magic newspaper reporters holding cameras, and the flash lights were lit one after another.

Throughout the history of the French magic world, temporary parliamentary meetings are rarely held. They are only held when the Grand Judge of Wizards and more than 70% of the judges of the Wizard Court believe that the current Minister of Magic is harmful to the French magic world.

During this period, all wizard councillors will judge and vote on the current Minister of Magic to determine whether the current minister will stay or go.

The current Minister of Magic, Eric Amalric, has only been in office for more than a year, and he has already faced such a scene. No minister in history has had such an "honor" as him.

However, in the face of such an embarrassing situation, in the eyes of some councillors, Amalric is still sitting in a chair as if nothing happened, picking his fingernails out of boredom.

This caused a lot of discussion in the conference room, and even the French wizards who were watching outside the glass wall frowned and pointed at their minister.

Roland was naturally the host of this meeting.

She maintained order in the entire venue, and then stated all the crimes of Amalric during his tenure as minister.

Surprisingly, her speech was not a long speech, and it could even be called brief.

But this did not affect the final result at all. Not to mention the Ministry of Magic, there are already many wizards in the outside world who are dissatisfied with the political attitude of the current minister.

The pure-blood faction knew that he just wanted to make money and gain benefits for himself, and in fact, he did not help the promotion of blood superiority in France.

The Muggle faction hated his attitude of publicly praising pure-bloodism. In short, getting him out of office was what the people wanted.

So when the final vote was held, more than 90% of the members agreed to expel him from the Ministry of Magic. From this moment on, Amalric was no longer the Minister of the French Ministry of Magic.

Outside the glass wall, the wizards watching were jubilant, and the reporters hurriedly took the photos in their cameras, wanting to return to the newspaper as soon as possible to be the first reporter of this news.

However, just as some members of the meeting room were about to leave and the newspaper reporters were about to leave.

Roland cleared his throat and spoke loudly with the unremoved amplification spell.

"Since the resolution to expel Amalric has been passed, we can now move on to the second agenda of this meeting."

Everyone who heard her words fell silent. Those who were about to leave the meeting realized that most of the members in the meeting room did not move at all. They seemed to have known in advance and were waiting for Roland to announce the second agenda.

Beside Roland, the Speaker of the Parliament, Gerard Castle, who was also preparing to stand up, was stunned. He turned his head and frowned at Roland. Just as he was about to ask in a low voice, what is the second agenda, why was it not told to him before, Roland's calm voice echoed in the entire meeting room.

"The Ministry of Magic cannot be without a Minister of Magic. The second agenda is about the nomination of a new minister."

The glass wall exploded after her voice fell, but there was a strange silence in the meeting room. A few members looked at Roland in shock. Some even suspected that she was under some kind of forgetfulness spell. Of course, the Minister of Magic must be re-elected, but it is impossible now.

Gerard Castle frowned even more. He stared at the woman in front of him who suddenly made him feel a little strange. He looked around at the members of the conference room who were mostly sitting in their original positions calmly. Suddenly, he had a very bad premonition in his heart!

"Let me propose a candidate first." Roland said loudly, "As we all know, the French magic world is not stable now. All wizards are arguing about what kind of future we should choose for the land we live in. The more we reach this time, the more we need a leader who can lead us to a bright future!"

Her words made the entire conference room silent, and outside the conference room, most of the Muggle wizards were excited.

They listened to Roland's speech and thought that she wanted to use this opportunity to run for the position of Minister of Magic. She has always been known for fighting for the rights of Muggle wizards in the magic world. She has won over a large number of Muggle wizard elites, all of whom are working secretly for her.

But her next sentence made all the onlookers outside the glass wall open their mouths wide.

"At present, I have not seen a wizard in France who has such ability. Looking around us, there is only one person who is qualified to be our leader—the greatest gentleman who is leading the British wizarding world to glory!"

She glanced at the stunned Muggle wizards with contempt, and said in a calm voice.

"Now the voting begins. If you agree that the gentleman should be the Minister of Magic, please raise your hands."

In the conference room, more than 80% of the MPs raised their hands without hesitation, while some of the remaining MPs looked at their colleagues around them with blank expressions, and some had their faces flushed with anger. , they pointed at Roland’s nose and began to curse.

"You are betraying the interests of all French wizards!"

"I suggest that Adele Laurent be screened for the Imperius Curse! She is controlled by those demons in Britain!"

"This vote is invalid! Members who elect ministers have no right to vote! Apart from letting people see your hypocritical face, this meeting is completely meaningless!"

The outside of the glass wall also began to boil. The Muggle wizards only reacted at this time, but Roland's voice still did not change at all.

"The vote is passed, let us welcome the future new owner of the French Ministry of Magic, a great gentleman!"

The moment she finished speaking, black mist filled the conference room, and the congressmen who had no idea what was going on today all fell powerlessly on their chairs.

Outside the glass wall, some smart people had already begun to run out of the Ministry of Magic, but most people were still looking at the man who appeared in the center of the conference room with disbelief!

"Good evening everyone."

He sat gracefully on the chair in the center. After saying good night with a smile, he leaned on the back of the chair and supported his head with one hand, looking at the congressmen with encouragement in his eyes.

"I have always been very democratic. Whether in the UK or France, if someone has an opinion against me, they can raise it now."

An old congressman suddenly stood up from his chair.

"Dark Lord! France will never surrender to your rule!"

"Avada Kedavra!"

Amid a burst of exclamations, Amalric, the former Minister of Magic who had been resigned, used the Death Curse on the old wizard in public with an expressionless face!

No one could react at all. The old Muggle wizard, who was highly respected among the MPs, fell to the ground with an unbelievable look on his face.

"Oh, maybe everyone has misunderstood what I said."

Voldemort smiled.

"Mudbloods are not considered human beings here."

The night wind was blowing the dark hair on Sirius's body. He was staring at the rat running for his life in front of him. His bloodshot eyes could no longer tolerate any other creature!

Lily and Lupine were flying in the air on their broomsticks. They were condescendingly casting spells on the gray mouse.

But Wormtail's body was small and his reactions were quick. Lily's and Lupine's spells basically landed on the dirt beside it, causing no direct damage to it.

And just when Lily lowered the handle of the broom with a cold expression and began to accelerate at low altitude, trying to fly in front of Wormtail to intercept him, a "dark cloud" suddenly shrouded their heads!

Wormtail, who was running forward, became excited.

He rolled on the ground, and then turned into a tall, lanky, bald wizard, waving constantly at the Aurors and Death Eaters in black robes in mid-air!

"It's me! Peter Pettigrew! I have completed my master's mission! Come and save me!"

However, his cry for help received no response at all. The wizards flying in the sky seemed to have not seen the situation underground at all, and continued to move forward without looking back, flying in the direction of the Hogwarts carriage.

The originally excited expression on Wormtail's face began to turn into shock, but Sirius, who had been following him, did not stop!

He jumped up from the ground without hesitation, and his huge body threw Wormtail to the ground on the spot!

Lily and Lupine looked at each other in unison, their brows furrowed, but without any hesitation at all, they turned around and headed back to where the carriage stopped.

"Don't kill him so easily!"

Before leaving, Lily left her last words to Sirius, who was already biting at the wailing Wormtail.

She and Lupine were not completely blinded by hatred, and knew that the carriage needed their protection now, not to mention that with Sirius here, Wormtail would not have another chance to escape.

The carriage has completely disappeared into this wilderness.

The wizards of the Order of the Phoenix kept these Aurors and Death Eaters firmly outside their blockade!

There was a nearly five-fold difference in the number of people between the two sides, but Dumbledore almost suppressed all the wizards on the other side with just one person.

The red firelight reflected half of the sky into a sea of ​​fire, and the black-robed wizards were unable to break through even half a step further.

The sound of curses sounded one after another, and people in the sky began to fall from their broomsticks, and then people also continued to be rescued by their companions.

The battle lasted until midnight and ended with the Death Eaters' defeat.

In other words, their original purpose was not to defeat the Order of the Phoenix with Dumbledore, but just to prevent him from interfering with their master's plan on other important occasions at such a critical moment.

As for the Hogwarts carriage, it will give Dumbledore an extra surprise.

The wizards of the Order of the Phoenix were cleaning up the battlefield left behind. As long as there is a war, there can be no undead people. But under the protection of Dumbledore, they were lucky to lose only two people this time, and most of the others. Just injured.

McGonagall, who had a big hole in the cuff of her robe, looked at Dumbledore with a worried look.

"Will there be something wrong with the students?"

Dumbledore was pouring Fawkes's tears onto Arthur's ripped thighs, and said softly.

"Trust them, Jon has never let any of us down."

They did not continue to stay here, but after clearing the battlefield, they used phantom together to leave the wilderness.

The next moment, all the Order of the Phoenix wizards appeared together on the cliff near the sea.

The waves crashed against the rocks.

The wizards buried their two fallen companions here, while Lily Lupine and Sirius grabbed a trapped wizard and came to two tombstones, one large and one small.

Wormtail, who had returned to his original pudgy appearance, was crying and twisting his blood-stained body.

"Lupine! Sirius! Lily! My friend! Forgive me! Please forgive me! I was forced! It was the Dark Lord who was forcing me! I can't resist that!"

"Why do you have the nerve to call us by our names!" Sirius roared, waving his wand, "Crush the bones!"

The Unforgivable Curse stimulated Wormtail's soul, and his screams even drowned out the wind and waves. The wizards from the Order of the Phoenix looked at him, but no one showed any sympathy on their faces.

"Master, save me. I'm doing my best and don't leave my master behind."

He curled up on the ground, stretched out, begging and praying, but got no response.

Lupine kicked him in the face, causing him to face the two tombstones in front of him.

"Look at these two! Peter Pettigrew! Look at them!"

Wormtail was forced to raise his face, and he saw the names on the two tombstones, one large and one small.

【James Potter】【Harry Potter】

"Remember them? Wormtail, do you remember them?"

Lily didn't scream or roar, she just asked in that weird, extremely calm voice.

Snot and tears were left all over Wormtail's face. He was still wailing in pain, but the sound of pain was still mixed with it. He didn't know whether it was a sincere apology or words trying to survive.

".I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. This is my fault."

Lily's face was expressionless. She tapped a branch next to her with the wand in her hand, and a sharp blade flashing with cold light took shape in the next second.

Wormtail's body trembled even more violently, his whole body shaking like a sieve.

".I have already apologized. Lily, please have mercy on me. I don't want to die."

Lily held the sharp blade.

"I accept your apology."

She aimed at Wormtail's chest.

"But if James and Harry accept it, you need to ask them yourself."

She thrust hard.

"puff!"

Scarlet warm liquid sprayed out, and the cold sea breeze blew the robes of everyone here.

The moonlight of hatred and hatred illuminated the two tombstones stained with sin and blood.
