Capítulo 57: Heading To The British Ministry Of Magic
(As promised 4 chapters today)
December 26.
When other children are still immersed in the cheerful atmosphere of Christmas.
Lucas had already put on his luxurious wizarding attire and was about to set off for the British Ministry of Magic.
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Hestia flew out of the window with a pink envelope in her mouth.
"Thank you dear!"
Opening the envelope, Hermione Granger's neat cursive handwriting appeared on the parchment.
[Dear Lucas:
I am walking with Cho Chang on the streets of London, the holiday is finally coming to an end, and I look forward to meeting you at King's Cross Station.
P.S. Cho asked me to convey her thanks on her behalf. She liked your gift very much.
Hermione Granger.]
Obviously, Miss Granger's frequency of sending letters is almost the same as passing small notes in class. She even sends letters while walking on the streets which shows that she always carries writing supplies with her.
Lucas smiled and wrote a reply then handed it over to Hestia who was bouncing around.
"Hey girl, give her the letter!"
Hestia seemed to enjoy sending messages between the two.
She clutched the envelope, spread her wings and disappeared into the sky.
"Lucas, we are leaving, are you ready?"
...
Today Vinda Rosier dressed herself very beautifully and coldly.
She's also using the magic perfume that Lucas gave her.
"Ma'am, you look so beautiful today!"
"You're looking handsome too, sir!"
Vinda smiled and took Lucas's arm, and the two walked out of the villa gate together.
A dozen members of the Alliance immediately followed behind them.
When they reached outside the manor, Lucius Malfoy and his son were already waiting there.
Beside them, there was a very beautiful and charming lady.
"Mr. Grindelwald, let me introduce you. This is Mrs. Zabini. She owns many shops in Diagon Alley."
Lucas looked at Mrs. Zabini in surprise.
"Oh Merlin, if it wasn't for Mr. Malfoy's introduction, I would have thought it was a young lady from some noble family. How rude of me, Mrs. Zabini."
Mrs. Zabini raised her hand to cover her lips and smiled softly.
Hearing that alluring laugh, Lucas even doubted whether the other party would have Veela blood.
No wonder seven husbands died one after another even after knowing of the danger ahead. Who can resist such a woman!
"Mr. Grindelwald is really good at talking. Based on your few words, I will give you a fair price whether it is renting or buying a shop."
After getting acquainted with each other.
Lucas and Malfoy were walking in front while the others followed and walked towards the Ministry of Magic together.
The British Ministry of Magic is also located in central London.
It's just different from the high profile of Germany.
The wizards of England built it underground.
The entrance is a dilapidated Red phone booth.
Obviously, Lucas wasn't going to squeeze into a phone booth.
They Apparated directly into the main hall of the Ministry of Magic.
This is the real gate of the Ministry of Magic.
"Lucas, we need to go to the first basement, which is Minister Fudge's office."
Lucas didn't say anything in answer, he just nodded.
His attention was drawn to the dazed Draco beside him.
"Draco, you don't want to throw up in the Ministry of Magic's atrium, do you?"
"How is it possible? I just haven't adapted yet."
Lucas turned to look at Lucius, who explained, "Draco is too young, he has traveled through apparition just a couple times."
After that, Lucius gave his son a cold look, probably thinking how he was being an embarrassment to the Malfoy family.
"Come on, Lucas, the main hall is on the eighth basement floor, we need to register our wands, and then take the elevator to the second floor."
Everyone registered their wands at the security check counter then went to the inner elevator.
It was Lucas' first visit to the British Ministry of Magic.
The Fountain of Magical Brethren depicted a pair of wizard and witch surrounded by different magical races looking at them in awe, showing how much wizards think themselves superior to others.
Leaving the atrium, everyone took the elevator to the second basement floor.
Visitors in the Ministry of Magic cannot take the elevator directly to the minister's office and the courtroom on the tenth basement floor.
So Lucas and others need to walk to the first floor.
The second floor underground, it is the largest department of the Ministry of Magic, the seat of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
Unfortunately, Lucas didn't have a great relationship with their Deputy Director or the Head Auror.
What's more unfortunate is that at this moment, these two people were walking from a distance, accompanied by people from the German Ministry of Magic.
It's like fate.
'The so-called road to meeting enemies is narrow, is this what it means?'
Lucas regretted not looking through the almanac before going out today, although it is not popular in England.
"Oh, I didn't expect to see you here, Minister Orwell!"
Lucas decided to strike first.
Orwell, who was originally in a good mood, immediately turned gloomy.
"Mr. Grindelwald? Didn't expect someone like you to come to the Ministry of Magic."
"Me? Maybe Minister Orwell doesn't know that I have decided to settle in England, so is there anything wrong with me coming to the Ministry of Magic?"
Lucas looked at him suspiciously.
Before the other party could answer, he showed an expression of sudden realization.
"By the way, why did I forget, Minister Orwell's Ministry of Magic seems to be still rebuilding, I'm sorry, I just remembered."
"Vinda, remember to donate some Galleons to the German Ministry of Magic later. Germany is an indispensable part of the magic world, and we are all responsible for rebuilding the Ministry of Magic."
Orwell gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.
He suppressed his anger and reminded himself that this was the British Ministry of Magic and there was no room for loss of courtesy.
"Thanks for your kindness Mr. Grindelwald, but the funds for rebuilding the Ministry of Magic are already sufficient, but we appreciate the kind offer."
"Really, what a pity!" Lucas said with regret.
"I still have something to do, so I won't bother Minister Orwell and everyone. I forgot to say it just now. I wish you all a Merry Christmas."
"Minister Orwell is really working hard. On such an important day as Christmas, he actually leads a team to visit other countries. It is really an example for us to learn from."
After Lucas finished speaking, he turned and prepared to leave.
At this time a Ministry of Magic employee ran to Pius Thicknesse's side.
The two whispered and Pius said immediately: "Mr. Grindelwald, please wait a moment, we have something to ask you."
