Chapter 73: Aftermath

-Harry pov -

Diagon Alley was ours now, no it is MINE now. I have warded everything with my dome, I have conquered it, and I now own it. I can confirm this because it now shows up in my territory section. Meaning I now can see everyone in Diagon Alley, I can manage Diagon Alley, it is mine, and will be forever.

As soon as we hunted down the last of our enemies, we sent out another newspaper, the headline read, 'WE HAVE WON DIAGON ALLEY!' it was specifically that to rally the common folk's confidence in our cause.

The more support the better, now I have way too many captives, almost too many if I'm being honest.

Some have willingly changed their Allegiance to my army, they were given seals and well for lack of better terms, brands. It prevents them from changing sides again, basically, it's the dark mark but ten times better. It doesn't hurt them, just keeps them loyal.

We will open up talks with the outside world in a couple of days, I want them to get nervous waiting while we prepare.

In other news, some of my actually competent spies in Germany told me that Gellert has been spotted there, and it seems as if he is rallying support.

Still, though it doesn't answer the question of why they were present in a British war.

I really need to up my intelligence gathering game in Germany, I mean this is wild, I have the most secretive information of nearly everywhere in the world, and Germany of all places is the one place I didn't send good competent people to?

Honestly, it's a little embarrassing.

"Sir, we have rounded up the prisoners that refused to join us," one of my soldiers told me in a calm tone

"Hm," I nodded and started to walk toward the area they are being kept

I stood in front of the prisoners, and said loudly, "you have all made your decision, let us hope you don't grow to regret it. Lucky for you I am no tyrant, and I won't be executing you. Today that is. You will show your worth in these coming days, for now, good luck,"

I turned and left, "make them look like they have been through hell, I want it done by tomorrow." I told one of the people next to me

"Yes sir," she replied and started to walk off

"Oh and blindfold and gag them as well," I said to her

She replied in a chipper tone "right away sir!"

The blindfolding and gagging of them is to distort their perceptions, they won't know how long they have been like that. It will mess with their minds.

And making it seem like they have been tortured will increase the pressure on the ministry and lords, making them more acceptable to my demands.

I don't want to kill them or torture them for many reasons, the main ones are, one reason is that it will make me seem like a tyrant and I will not gain support like that, the second reason is that it will weaken Britain's main militia and if I want to rule Britain I don't want to cripple it, and the third most important reason is my image, it ties in with the first reason, but this is so much more. Even if the prisoners think even a single bit better of me, it will be a win. I also know my own troops and the common folk will think better of me increasing my image and their confidence in my leadership.

I looked around and saw people practicing spells, and some were resting, buildings were destroyed, and my troops were tired.

I have a lot of work cut out for me.

-narrator pov -

Grindelwald stood above the fallen German minister, he foolishly got entrapped by Gellert's words and sent troops to Britain, weakening his own defenses. Gellert capitalized on that fact and with the aid of several influential German families, he took over the ministry.

"Will will take care of my people well, may your soul find the comfort of lady magics embrace," Gellert said calmly with a charming smile

He waved his wand almost in a lazy manner, a green flash lit up the room.

The German minister was no more.

Gellert walked out of the room, he appeared to be calm and collected. His supporters filled the halls, it was time to claim his place. And start his rule.

In Britain, the ministry was in turmoil.

"We should fight back!" Lord Malfoy yelled incensed at the current situation

"Intelligent as ever Lord Malfoy, fight back with what exactly? They have are Aurors, unless you want to volunteer," Lord Nott said in a borderline mocking tone

Draco kept calm, but anyone could tell he was furious.

"We have no choice but to listen to their demands," Lord Longbottom added

"We always have a choice! What can they do to us nobles! We are their betters!" Draco snapped back

'The Malfoy family is doomed,' where the collective thoughts of everyone there

" I think we should listen to what their leader proposes and go from there," Elizabeth said

"I agree," Sirius added

"I agree," Lady bones nodded

Several families followed soon after, all agreeing.

"Good, we will do just that," Fudge said with a smile but his eyes were cold

-Harry pov -

It has been a day since we dealt with the prisoner problem and since they are all now blindfolded and gagged, we have been moving some to a different location, then adding our own men and women into the bunch.

We didn't want to replace too many, but just enough so my plan could work.

I have a meeting with Fudge tomorrow, so I need to figure out how I can trade the prisoners for something without my true purposes getting revealed.

I already have support in the ministry, and some noble Lords, the noble houses that are in alliance with me are, house black, house Longbottom, house bones, house Abbot, house Nott which is rather recent, and house Greengrass.

I built an alliance with house Longbottom, after talking to Nevile about how I will better the society as a whole, like transition courses for muggle-borns, and early schooling.

The bones house was easy, I just had to pitch my ideas of better security, and Auror training.

But, Greengrass was the easiest by far, they just wanted to broaden their business contacts and other business-related things.

So I have the support of the noble houses and the support of the common folk, now I just need to put the finishing touches into action.

Of course, the support I am getting from the nobles is more passive right now than active, it's kind of like a cease-fire, I won't mess with them and they won't mess with me.

Though some were quite angry about the whole war situation.

[the next day]

I stood in front of the entrance to Toms bar, several people were around me, and around the entrance, I lifted the wards and allowed the bricks to move.

Fudge and Madam Bones stepped through followed by a couple of guards. Queen Elizabeth also showed up.

"Welcome," I said behind me were a couple of the prisoners, their clothes were cut and stained with fake blood

"Blood merchant," Fudge said nodding toward me

"Release the prisoners," Madam Bones said glaring at me

"Now why would I do that?" I asked calmly

"Haven't you tortured them enough, look at them!" She growled back

"Now now Amelia calm down," Fudge said in an indifferent tone

She knows I didn't harm them, she is just putting on an act.

"Blood Merchant, please free them," Elizabeth said off to the side in a sad tone

"No, I won't free them until an open Wizengamot meeting is held, in which I can join peacefully," I replied

"Done," Fudge replied instantly

"Good, I will return to you these prisoners as a show of goodwill," I said gesturing to the prisoners behind me

"I want the court to be held in Diagon Alley, that way as many people as possible can come," I said seriously

"That might be difficult, how do we ensure our safety?" Fudge asked

"Simple, every Lord that joins will sign a blood contract stating guest rights," I answered

Guest rights are when you invite someone into your land, you cannot do anything to them, well in the medieval ages it was based on honor but magical guest rights binds the persons magic.

"I will bring this proposition to the Wizengamot," Fudge said seriously

"Good," I replied in a chipper tone

Soon they left with about fifty prisoners in tow, more than half of them were my people under disguise.

-Narrator pov -

A meeting was held that evening, and the prisoners were taken to a hospital.

"I will not sign such a thing!" Lord Malfoy said angrily

"Then what should we do!" Fudge asked the room

Outside of the Wizengamot chamber, the ministry spies started to move, they moved swiftly activating the floo transports.

Rebellion soldiers started to pour out of the floo transports.

A similar situation happened at the hospital the released 'prisoners' were staying.

The members of the Wizengamot meeting had no clue any of this was happening.

Suddenly, Harry appeared inside the chamber, he stood calmly unleashing his magical might. A pressure descended in the room.

"Y-YOU!" Malfoy said weakly

At the same time, every single daily prophet paper started to glow, then a screen showed. On the screen, one could see the current Wizengamot meeting.

"Yes me," Harry said casually

He started to speak his voice was charismatic and charming, entrancing the watchers, "The no-mags, and first-generation wizards, have been Oppressed for far too long, the people of Britain deserve a ruler, deserve a leader! They should no longer be afraid of speaking their mind, they should no longer be persecuted for now knowing what nobles are taught from birth, and they should no longer feel like second-class citizens."

Everyone watched with bated breath, his words echoed in their minds.

"Join me in bettering the world, in bettering our world! Stand up with confidence! Because I will be there for you! I will advocate for you! I will lead you!" Harry waved his hand expanding the room to an astronomical size

"Join me! Tap the paper in front of you and say freedom!" he announced

The nobles were confused, what paper?

A couple watched Harry from their living room, they both grabbed the newspaper and said in unison, "freedom!"

They appeared in the Wizengamot chambers, It was like a ripple effect more and more people began to appear.

"JOIN ME! LET ME LEAD YOU TO A BRIGHTER FUTURE!" Harry said

"you all might be wondering, how can you trust a masked man?"

He reached up and grabbed his mask, taking it off slowly he said, "my name is Harry Potter, come and get me."

-End-

A/N; sooooooo yeah! Hope y'all liked the chapter, I could have drug this whole thing out for a couple more chapters, but that would have been boring and basically all fluff.


next chapter

Chapter 74: BLOOD MERCHANT IS WHO?!

"my name is Harry Potter, come and get me," Harry announced his tone was calm, but a shit-eating grin was spread across his face

Silence befell the room, total silence, it was almost deafening in a way. It seemed like the world stopped, Harry Potter a nineteen-year-old wizard, is the blood merchant, the man that took over Diagon Alley? The man that runs the biggest crime syndicate in the world? The guy many respect and fear? That was Harry Potter.

"I-impossible" Hermione whispered, but everyone heard her because of the silence

Hermione's voice broke the silence, and pandemonium ensued.

"NO!"

"It can't be!"

"This has to be a dream, no a nightmare,"

"I have been following a Noble! And a fucking kid!"

"This can't be true!"

'NO NO NO NO! A FUCKING POTTER! I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING A POTTER! I HAVE BEEN SERVING A FUCKING POTTER!' Snape roared furiously in his mind

"SILENCE!" Harry said his voice booming throughout the room

Instantly everyone grew silent, his voice carries a commanding tone that no one could deny.

Harry began to speak again, his voice was quiet, but everyone was listening, "I Harry Potter lead this rebellion, I Harry Potter got rid of the dark lord, I Harry Potter fought for the rights of others, and I Harry Potter will rule Britain,"

"Not the Elizabeth your so-called Queen, who stood at the sidelines while you fought, not Cornelius who sent troops to silence you, and not the Lords that actively discriminate against you," he added

"Who do you think you ar-" Elizabeth began to talk but was cut off by the cold blade against her throat

She followed the blade to the person, it was her own butler.

"Why?" she asked crestfallen

"When my mother died protecting you all those years ago, you didn't even honor her sacrifice, instead you made them train me to be a perfect replacement, when I die I know you will do the same to my son, I won't allow it," He replied coldly

She couldn't respond, her emotions were in turmoil.

"YOU DARE TO SHOW UP HERE POTTER!" Draco shouted

"Shut up," a woman's voice sounded, it was cold and unfeeling

Draco turned to see his own 'mother' pointing her wand at him.

"Why?" he asked

"You were never my son, Lucius got another pregnant, then made me care for you like my own child, and what did I get? Beat by him when I did something wrong, laughed at by you, yelled at when you didn't get your way, you ruined my life," Narcissa said with disgust

Draco knew he should have reined in his anger, but he couldn't.

"YOU WHORE!" He yelled at her

"Oh? I'm the whore? Interesting you say that actually, your mother was a whore, so I guess that makes you a half-blood? How does that feel?" Narcissa said in a mocking tone

Draco paled, his eyes shook in horror.

"Nononononnononononononononononononononononono....nononononono....nononono," He denied over and over again

Narcissa just said something that completely broke Draco.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Lord Nott laughed loudly

"Let's get back on topic shall we?" Harry spoke up once more

He waved his hand once more, and the room started to change, the floors turned to stone, with a red carpet leading to a giant throne, the minister's seat was now below the throne, and the Noble houses sat at both sides of the throne room.

He kept moving his hands like he was concocting a symphony.

The whole Wizengamot chamber turned into a giant throne room.

Harry disappeared and reappeared sitting on the throne, his expression was calm.

He gazed at everyone present and spoke, "Let me lead you all to greatness, I am not a tyrant, I am a fair person so speak your mind. But, before anyone speaks any brash thoughts remember I rule a criminal empire, it grew to be the strongest in the world in only a couple of years, that can be Britain,"

"I support you," Madam Bones said

Noticing the stares she got she elaborated, "he turned a group of civilians into an army that was on par with my Aurors, imagine what he could do with the Aurors? We could turn into a powerhouse,"

"I agree!" Lord Greengrass said with a smile

"As do I, as long as you don't interfere and try to take away the nobility I will agree to this," Lord Nott said

"That was never my goal, people don't hate nobles, they hate that nobles treat them like trash, they hate that the nobles will try to stop them from having a voice, that's what I want to change," Harry replied

"Then, I'm happy to witness in person the beginning of your reign," Lord Nott said with an easy going smile

"I agree," Lord Abbot said

"I agree as well," Lady Brown said

"As do I," Lord Longbottom added

Many houses added on.

""WE AGREE!"" The crowd yelled

"As do we," a voice added

Everyone turned to see the King of Goblins.

"King Argod, a pleasure to see you," Harry said with a wide smile

"Lord Potter, or should I call you King Potter, old friend?" Argod said purposely using those terms

"Well let us ask them," Harry said gesturing to the people

"ALL HAIL KING POTTER!" Sirius said with a crazy smile

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

Even those still at home watching the screen whispered "All hail king potter,"

"Thank you, I shall lead us to new heights," Harry said with a soft grateful smile

"My blade didn't taste the blood of my enemies," Argod mumbled sadly

"Now, it has been a long day, everyone you may go home, I want the rebellion to pick a representative, they will represent the non nobles, so choose well. Also, I would like for Fudge to stay, and the Lords and Ladies including you Elizabeth," Harry spoke confidently

-Severus Pov -

"my name is Harry Potter, come and get me," I saw the person I served take off his mask, a wide shit-eating grin was formed on his face

It was a Potter grin.

Why does everything turn out to be the worst possible situation?

I have been serving a Potter.

A BLOODY Potter.

My mind went blank, I didn't even know if I should be mad, Blood Merchant and I were friends, we spoke often and he helped me out.

He isn't a Potter anymore, he is Blood Merchant, yeah that's easier.

Yeah, it's not harry potter, it's blood merchant.

Two completely different people.

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

Oh, come on!

-Fury Pov -

Another Hydra hunt was successful, and Shield is steadily gaining more members again. This time I'm being thorough in deciding who I recruit.

Spies will not be tolerated in Shield.

"Sir, I have a question," the agent in front of me asked

"Well ask it," I responded bluntly

"Well, what are we doing about Harry Potter, he has done a lot," the agent asked

"He fell off the map a couple of years ago, don't worry about him, he is probably hiding somewhere," I replied shaking my head

Harry Potter? That kid's old news, he is probably wasting away somewhere.

My copy of the daily prophet began to glow. A screen appeared, like the ones in the tournament that kid made up.

"my name is Harry Potter, come and get me,"

No

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

No

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

No

""ALL HAIL KING POTTER!""

"MOTHER FUCKER!"

-Hermione Pov -

Harry... He was Harry this whole time? How did he get this strong? I feel like I'm suffocating in his presence, what has he been doing to reach this level of power.

Now he is the King of Britain! King Potter, I would have never imagined this happening, it was like I was just a bystander.

A side character.

-Harry Pov-

I was in the room with Cornelius, Elizabeth, the lords, and ladies minus Draco, and Hermione who was chosen by the rebellion in an almost unanimous vote.

I turned to fudge and said, "I want you to be one of my advisors, I really admire the work you have been doing, and I think if you focus on cultivating the alliances you have been forming with the Vampires and Centaurs then Britain can gain quite a lot," I said smiling at him

He smiled and said, "Thank you, I have reached a crossroads with them though, they like the blood you sell, but they just can't get it in bulk, and all they want is blood,"

"Use the corpses of Azkaban Prisoners, and instead of the Dementors kiss, we can kill them peacefully then send their corpses to the vampires," I said

He nodded, obviously he wasn't happy with the whole situation, but making him an advisor seemed to make him a little happier.

"Lord Abbot, as promised, more hospitals will be built, and better resources will be provided," I said with an easy smile

"Thank you, your majesty," he replied with an elated expression

"Lord Greengrass the matter we discussed will be dealt with tonight," I said to him

"Thank you, your majesty," Lord Greengrass said with a relieved expression

These guys are just a bunch of suck-ups, your majesty this and that, tch at least be sincere if you say it.

"Elizabeth, I can tell you are mad. But I would like to offer you the position of foreign relations, Gellert has taken over Germany, and I know how close you two are," I offered her

Yeah, like hell I will allow her to do this job without supervision, she can't be trusted right now, and I can't force the mark, the situation would get messy.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I would be delighted to take this position,"

Yep, she is pissed!

-end-

So would y'all rather have a small time skip, just so he can set everything up, or no time skip?

And you might be thinking, it was so easy for Harry to take over Britain, you have to think of it through multiple angles,

1, built the strongest criminal empire in a couple of years

2, is the strongest wizard (has openly shown his power)

3, because of the rebellion his public image and public support are now massive

4, already secured the diligence of most of the important noble houses

5, he is just built different
