Elemental Wizards at Hogwarts

Ciel's inner drama did not cause much disturbance at the meeting, but everyone's eyes were shocked by Hermione's somewhat tough behavior, even though Hermione's tough behavior came and went very quickly.

On the other hand, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the main seat, knew his student Charles very well. While everyone looked at Hermione with surprised eyes, Dumbledore was the only one who looked at Charles with a strange expression.

Charles also noticed Dumbledore's eyes. Watching Dumbledore slowly change from teasing to seriousness, Charles still sighed helplessly. Years of tacit understanding made Charles immediately understand what Dumbledore meant.

He glanced helplessly at the Newt family sitting at the table. To be honest, if it hadn't been for this family, Charles swore that Dumbledore wouldn't have had to wink at him.

After Dumbledore saw Charles nodding to him very covertly, he clapped his hands with satisfaction, attracting everyone's attention.

"Okay, don't look at our Miss Granger like that. She just retains some habits from her summer vacation."

As Dumbledore spoke, he pointed at Hermione, who was blushing a little, with a teasing look on his face. The whole venue let out a burst of good-natured laughter along with Dumbledore's teasing.

Seeing that the atmosphere had been restored, the heavenly look on Dumbledore's face slowly faded away, and he gradually became serious.

Along with the change in Dumbledore's expression, everyone also suppressed their curiosity about what Hermione did during the holiday and began to listen to Dumbledore's speech seriously.

"I think everyone understands what's going on when we come together again.

Yes, Voldemort is really back, and not only is he back, he has become more powerful and crazier than before.

When Harry was attacked by dementors, Voldemort took the initiative, and our war with Voldemort began again."

As Dumbledore's words fell, everyone's expressions began to turn gloomy. Except for Charles and Hermione, those present had basically experienced the horror of Voldemort's period. Dumbledore's words made everyone present.

They were all trapped in that dark memory.

Dumbledore looked at everyone present, paused for a while, then sighed once, and continued.

"I'm sorry to tell you some bad news. After investigation, we discovered something even more terrifying. There are traces of manipulation by some people behind Voldemort's rise and resurrection.

They are very ancient and secretive, and what they do is also very secretive. Even the first wizard war has their shadow vaguely behind it. Therefore, the enemy we will face this time will not only be Voldemort.

That’s it, this time, what we need is to uproot the power behind it.”

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, everyone present gasped. No one expected such a sudden activation of information. The only ones who were relatively calm were the Newt family and Charles.

.

After a period of silence, it was Moody, the senior Auror, who first collected his emotions. He kept turning his magic eye and stared at Dumbledore who was sitting in the chair with his other eye.

Slowly asked everyone's questions.

"Who are they? Dumbledore, I think you should know who they are."

After listening to Moody's question, Dumbledore nodded slowly, took out a document from his arms and placed it on the table, and then continued.

"Yes, I have investigated who is behind all this. It is indeed surprising to find out, because the masterminds who have controlled the magical world for nearly a hundred years are actually the goblins of Gringotts."

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, an astonishing discussion broke out in the entire venue. Everyone was whispering, and some people didn't quite believe what Dumbledore said was the mastermind behind it.

Seeing the messy situation in the venue, Dumbledore clapped his hands again and again to maintain order in the venue, and then continued.

"I'm sorry to interrupt everyone's discussion, but my reaction was similar to everyone's when I learned about this incident just now. As the investigation deepened, I discovered a terrible truth.

After a hundred years of development, Gringotts controlled by the goblins can actually be said to have mastered the economic power of the entire wizarding world. Relying on the arrogance of the wizards, the goblins have always been very good at hiding in the seemingly peaceful magical world.

Down.

And in more than a hundred years, they have developed a set of their own hierarchy. At that time, this group of goblins was not monolithic. Over a long period of time, they had left too many traces in the magic world, and it was precisely

This is how they will be reminded again and again that the upheavals in the magical world consume the vitality of wizards."

Dumbledore explained to everyone the traces of the goblins' development, and he did not forget to tap the document he just took out from his arms.

Following Dumbledore's actions, the files originally placed on the table were quickly split and copied, and as the files were copied, the extra files began to automatically run to everyone.

In a short while, everyone had a document in front of everyone that Dumbledore had just copied using magic.

After seeing that everyone had the documents, Dumbledore continued slowly.

"The document in front of you was given to me by the Ministers of Magic of various countries when I took Charles to travel around the Ministry of Magic throughout Europe this summer.

As you can see, the ministers of magic in various countries have discovered a terrifying fact. Goblins have almost mastered all the wealth in the wizarding world, and most wizards will open accounts in goblin banks.

With the support of a large amount of funds, goblins have almost monopolized many industries, and even the owners behind many pure-blood families' industries are already those goblins.

Even some mixed-blood wizards and goblins rely on loans of gold galleons to force these wizards to work for them or sell their ancestors or their precious knowledge."

After listening to Dumbledore's words, everyone's expressions were not so good-looking, and they all looked through the documents in their hands without saying a word. Only Charles looked blank, looking at the documents in his hand in astonishment, and wondering.

He looked at Dumbledore sitting in the main seat.

Obviously he and Dumbledore traveled to Europe together, why didn't he know that Dumbledore had done these things?

At this time, Charles had begun to regret his fishy behavior when he and Dumbledore visited the Ministry of Magic of various countries.
