章 513: Grim fate

"Best three out of four?" Ron asked frustrated at his string of losses. Nick shook his head "Maybe later , for now though you might want to check to make sure you've got everything for summer break. If you need anything during that time I won't be able to help you at all." he said calmly. "You never did say why you were going to be busy over summer break." Harry pointed out curiously from nearby. "Nothing you all need to worry about." Nick said casually. "You might as well have not said anything at all!" Ron complained.-

Nick shrugged "If you must know I am preparing a trump card for the future so I don't really want to go into details about it." he said honestly. "You are almost as powerful as Dumbledore , what in Merlin's name could you need a trump card for?" Hermione asked confused. "If I'm lucky I won't need it but if I am not then I'd rather have it than not." Nick answered seriously. This was also very true as while it was likely Zeus would end up destroying his body at least once it was also possible that he would never have his body destroyed as well.-

"Anyways you really need to convince your family to move out of London before the end of next year." Nick told Hermione seriously. "Why?" she asked confused. "This thing Grindelwalds doing is going to turn things really ugly in places with a lot of people like that and they might get caught up in the chaos of it all if they stay. If you can I highly advise having them get as far from the city as possible before it starts." Nick warned sternly. "You know what the dark lord is trying to do!?" Ron exclaimed in shock.-

"There's no point in hiding it anymore since from my calculations he should set off the event sometime towards the end of next year. Basically he means to flood the earth with magical energy at a density that hasn't been seen here in a VERY long time. When he does this the muggles are going to be set back centuries on a technological standpoint and even worse is that most of the species of animals and magical beasts on the planet are going to evolve into stronger , smarter and more difficult to control versions in huge numbers."

"Once this happens the wizarding word will be forced into revealing itself and things will get bloody before they calm down. So if you can Hermione it would be for the best if you had your family move near Rons or at the least take refuge with Sirius." Nick said seriously and his friends looked horrified. "What a rotten thing to do." Ron said spitefully and no-one disagreed. "The ministry and Dumbledore must have a plan to stop this from happening right?" Tracy asked hopefully but Nick shook his head. "They have long accepted that they can't stop it and have been preparing for it in hopes of reducing the amount of casualties to come." Nick said honestly.-

"The events of this coming up year will likely be some of the brightest points in wizarding history that will be remembered after this new world order sets in." he added. "How could someone knowingly do something like this?" Luna asked genuinely confused. Nick knew why too as she was innately kind and helpful and simply couldn't imagine the sort of thoughts that would lead one down such a path. "Grindelwald believes this to be the best way for wizarding kind to have a bright future."-

"Sadly his belief is not entirely wrong either. Few probably realize it but with the way the muggles technology is rapidly improving we only have about seven or eight years before they discover our existence and that will end one of a few ways with few of them being positive. In fact there is a good chance that the muggles will go to war with us with the intention of wiping us out entirely." Nick explained honestly. "How can you say that!?" Hermione asked offended by the implication behind what he said.- 

"Muggles have committed genocide and enslaved others for things as little as a different religion , skin color and simply because they wanted what the others had all throughout history. The only difference between then and now is that they have gotten more efficient in killing each other so what do you think they would do when they discover that magic is very much real and that wizards have something they can't have themselves? I can tell you now it's not going to be smile and embrace us with open arms. It may well become another dark age for wizard kind and I honestly can't see us survive it in any meaningful capacity." Nick said sternly.


章 514: Cascade effect

The mood was grim for the group after that and Nick chose to let his friends have the time needed to process this information. It was a tough piece of meat to swallow but he was confident that they would be able to handle it without much issue. What he failed to consider however was that Hermiones bleeding heart would cause her to do something REALLY short sighted. She sent a letter to her parents containing this information and her parents without the correct context for the situation did what any upstanding person would and started warning their friends who in turn warned their own friends.-

This created a ripple across all of London that drew the attention of the ministry and muggle governments both. A simple letter had caused a breach of the statute of secrecy that revealed the existence of wizards to the muggle government in the british isles beyond the prime minister and royal family that was already in the know about it. The ministry quickly traced the source of the problem back to Hermione and early in the morning of the final day of school three aurors came for her.-

"Hermione Granger , in accordance with the laws pertaining to the statue of secrecy you are hereby under arrest for revealing the existence of magic to muggles , please come quietly." the auror in charge of the case said loudly before motioning for the other two aurors to take the horrified girl. Nick wasted no time at all diving into the leading aurors head to figure out what was going on before feeling a great deal of frustration when he found out. Dumbledore rapidly approached the group as he hadn't gotten any warning about this and wanted it explained.-

The leading auror explained the charges against Hermione and how they came about and the girl herself was in tears. As far as she knew all she had done was tell her parents what was going on in order to convince them to leave the city like Nick suggested but she had clearly not realized what actions her parents would take. "What a mess!" Nick complained in frustration. "I'm just saying that this doesn't sound like Hermione at all , she's smarter than this." Ron argued for the umpteenth time. "I told all of you what was going on so you weren't caught off guard but somehow she took that to mean telling her parents as well and so here we are." Nick said with a sigh. -

"That's so stupid though! How was she supposed to understand that warning her parents would lead to this?" Tracy asked angrily. "The ministry doesn't care about the intent behind the action so much as the outcome. In this case Hermione has caused a serious problem , a lot of people needed to be obliviated to fix it so this does not look good for her at all. She won't be going to Azkaban though if Dumbledore and I have anything to say about it." Nick said firmly. -

"What can you even do? Politics won't help much at this point and aren't you rather low on money at the moment?" Daphne asked confused. "You'll know soon enough." Nick said before leaving to go find Dumbledore. The old man was of course in his office getting ready to leave himself when Nick walked in. The old goat looked at Nick and sighed "You know there is no going back if you do this right?" he asked softly. Nick nodded "We both knew it would come to this eventually but I agree that the timing is less than ideal." he said determined.-

The signs of Nick becoming the next great wizard had long since been clear and both of them knew that at some point Nick was going to show that he was the next powerhouse of the british isles. In a way it was Dumbledores time to step out of the spotlight and let someone from the younger generation take it. Hermiones matter was troublesome for Dumbledore to solve because he was a well known factor to be considered but Nick was an entirely new powerhouse that would make Fudge more likely to pardon Hermione than test how he would react to her being sentenced.-

The way to accomplish this was quite simple really , Nick was going to go to the ministry with Dumbledore all while letting his mana flow from him freely. There was no chance in hell that Fudge wouldn't immediately be able to understand the implication behind the suppression that felt like Dumbledores own. "If that is your choice than i can only wish you luck on your path as it is a treacherous one." the old goat said before having Fawkes teleport them both to the ministry.
