Chapter 330: 330. The CURE
Magnus, in his dozens of companies, employed more than five hundred thousand people. Among these were thousands of Wizards as well.
Now, it was human nature to have the 7 deadly sins in their psyche. It was extremely hard to avoid all these temptations. And the hardest one was greed. Oftentimes, among the muggle workers, many would try to sell company secrets to other companies or would try to jump the ship.
To their bad luck, the paper on which their contract was written was not ordinary. As soon as they break the contract, it gets notified to a group of 10 completely loyal wizards. They would then find the man, look into his head at what he did, with whom he shared the secrets. Then, not just he gets obliviated, but also those who got that secret. Later, that man would be sent back to work, only to receive a letter of termination.
This was how all secrets remained a secret. The thing was harsher for Wizards. Magnus was the only big employer of wizards, there was nowhere else to go. So, the treachery here was a much bigger crime. Some wizards would either accept to damage something in Magnus's company for money from families that hate Magnus, or from some dark wizard.
These Wizards get their entire work life obliviated, their bank account gets emptied, taking away all the money they made by working for Magnus, then they are thrown out. The people who hired these wizards in the first place are given a letter of threat, that if they try this again, they will die.
Though treachery among wizards was extremely rare, they truly respected Magnus and were thankful to him for providing them with a job that makes them feel like an efficient part of society.
Treachery was most common among the muggles, as they don't really know about the consequences or that they are being watched no matter what their position is. It does not matter if you're a janitor or a Director.
MEDA was the only completely loyal organisation to him, as it only employed Wizards and due to their work, they were by the contract signed, made to go through mind checks every week to prove they had not been compromised. Only a select few and Adrian did these mind checks since this involved sometimes seeing a personal memory of wizards.
...
Magnus returned home from the long trip. It was fun as well as bountiful. By the time he arrived back at home, in the US, Nixon had resigned and now Ford was the President, and as discussed before, he kept his words and checked the problems being faced by Magnus' company. Soon, everything got solved and all the monopolistic activities ended, with Emrys Construction starting to receive contracts from fair bids.
At home, everything was just fine, the economy was still facing an upward trend, completely opposite to the entire world. Currently, the US was facing a GDP growth of -0.54%, as compared to the previous year's 5.56%. It was an annual decrease of -6.19%. The UK meanwhile had a modest 3% annual growth, less than last year's 6.2%, but still acceptable since the world economy was down. Next year when everything goes up, their numbers will be better than ever in history. [A/N: In the real world, the UK faced a pretty bad decline, much worse than the US.]
All was 'Magnus Miracle', only those in the upper circles were calling it this. People were happy, protests against the government were non-existent at this point.
Only one thing was left in the UK that was still troubling them and damaging their economy. In February, eleven people were killed in the M62 coach bombing. Of course, done by none other than IRA. The bus was carrying off-duty defence forces and their families. Casualties included civilians and kids as well.
What was worse was the IRA Army Council response. Ó Conaill, an Irish Republican, replied that the coach was selected as a legitimate target because IRA intelligence had indicated that the vehicle was commissioned to carry military personnel only.
Magnus didn't like this level of disregard for life. He honestly didn't care about land or boundaries, all were human to him and he wanted nothing but progress to hit all. But, as the monarch, he could not just cede land, as that would put him in a bad position.
So, to ensure peace, he finally sent MEDA, a team of master obliviators went ahead, making the Irish side stop their armed conflict. When peace talks ensued, Northern Ireland was given the right to resolve any issues it had with the South. Other than this, the UK would still govern Northern Ireland like any other part of the country. Magnus wanted this, as he knew that they would not agree to let the UK govern. But, if he wanted to boost the country, he needed to divide it into states, for this, this agreement was necessary.
By 30th July 1974, the agreement was passed between the countries, finally ending the bloody conflict.

"We have a report for the Nestle company. They have been found to lie about all their products. For their chocolates, slave labour is used in Africa, their Baby Formula is absolutely not healthy or as good as a real mother's milk. Their water bottles are mostly just tap water sold as mountain water. Sometimes they even subvert water pipelines in developing countries to fill their bottles, leaving people to drink contaminated dirty water.
"All in all, it's an evil company, as evil as it goes," Adrian revealed the entire report to Magnus and Grace in the living room of Magnus' Mansion.
Grace was shaken, "How... how did they go for so long without being shut? It's as if they are against all human rights."
"Well, this is what gives a bad name to capitalism." Magnis sighingly said. But the bigger bomb was yet to drop.
*Cough* "Lady Grace, Magnus, this isn't even the worst part. I checked all the old documents, from the inception of this company. I have found that Nestle was allied with Nazi Germany and used Jewish imprisoned Slave labour in their factories." Adrian revealed. [A/N: This is true. In 2000, Nestle paid 14.6 Million as a settlement with Holocaust survivors.]
*Whistle* Ragnar whistled in astonishment, "I'm from a wizard family, we were never taught about muggle history, but man, even I know Nazis equals bad. How is this company still operating?"
"Does the US's FDA know about this?" Magnus inquired.
Adrian nodded, "They have received a lot of complaints and evidence, but they keep ignoring it. They are well-fed it seems."
Magnus nodded, "Fine, this is what you will do. Send all the evidence to the US President via mail with my stamp. Send it to a few real human rights organisations around the world. Send evidence of their alignment with Nazis to major Jewish organisations. Then, drown it in lawsuits, bring the company's market value to the ground. And when it hits rock bottom on the verge of bankruptcy, buy it."
"Are you going to run it?" Adrian asked.
Magnus scowled in disgust, "NEVER, I'm going to end the company, it will never see the market again, it will be delisted and become a piece of history. We will create a new company and take away all the current Nestle's assets. The company is the bad one, not the many of its workers. And this time, we will do it right, with Ragnar's healthy products and chocolates not made with Slave labour."
Ragnar nodded, "Sure, as long as you pay me money."
Magnus sighed, "Ah, and here I thought we were family. Look, mum, how greedy he is."
Grace chuckled, "Isn't Oroborus a dragon?"
Magnus shrugged, "Umm, I'd say it's a mix of snake and dragon. No wonder he's slimy like a snake and greedy like a dragon."
"You're no better, Magnus," Grace added.
And this was critical damage.
...
Bobby sat at home and looked at the news. Due to Ragnar's potions, his dad's cancer had been completely eradicated. Magnus made sure of it by trying to sniff cancer on him, it was nowhere.
Now, Mr and Mrs Armstrong were retired and run a charity foundation that watches over helping poor kids go to school or college. They were extremely proud of their son, and also Magnus.
Bobby, albeit being super-rich, still acted like a good little son and spent family time at home. "Haha, mum look, all this was done by Magnus. That Netsle company was purely evil."
"Really? Hmm... I should stop giving their boxes to charity." Mrs Armstrong, a retired kindergarten teacher, said.
Bobby nodded, "But don't worry, Magnus himself is launching a new company, it will be a real healthy baby formula, he's even launching an adult version, saying that adults also lack a lot of nutrition in today's busy times. I will buy some for you two."
...
Slowly, time went by and came 1st September, time to return to school. But Magnus had not much to do now, so he had decided to spend most of his time researching things he wanted to.
One of them was medicine with the help of Herbology and Alchemy. He wanted to become famous in the Muggle world after all, only then can he exert more influence.
And the best thing he could think of making was medicine to cure something that most people have but never admit having it... DEPRESSION.
