Hogwarts Homecoming

Amosta's proposal was shelved by the conference.

This was also expected.

Such a far-reaching proposal could not be easily passed based on his remarks at the meeting.

All representatives of member states must report the matter to their own Ministry of Magic, and only after serious discussion can a decision be made.

With the exposure of Amosta's proposal, Paris suddenly became the focus of the world's magic civilization.

Countless eyes were focused on this city, and the worlds of light and darkness were paying attention to the International Confederation of Wizards, which had once again become the focus.

Mainstream media in various countries around the world reported on this matter extensively, and many authoritative figures in the magic world expressed their views and discussed the pros and cons in newspapers.

Even Harry and others who were far away in Hogwarts and were still worried about the invasion of Professor Braine's office had heard about the big news that Professor Braine made in Paris.

For three consecutive days, Amosta met with representatives of the Ministry of Magic of various countries non-stop, and tirelessly explained his various ideas to them.

Not only him, but Dumbledore was also the object of people's scrambling to visit.

Compared to Amosta, Dumbledore, the chairman of the International Confederation of Wizards, is more trustworthy.

People hope to know from him whether there is any more ambitious purpose behind Amosta's proposal.

The secretaries at all levels of the International Confederation of Wizards, several vice presidents, especially Hope, spared no effort to advocate for the proposal.

Even if the proposal is passed, only the chairman can enjoy the authority.

But as the status of the Confederation in the international magic world rises, they will naturally become beneficiaries.

The motion was finally passed.

However, not all member states of the conference signed the joint security treaty.

European countries, even the German Ministry of Magic, which has some prejudices against Amosta, also joined in.

This is easy to understand.

For the magic world of European countries, the Death Eaters organization is the crisis they need to face, and they urgently need to gather strength to strangle the Death Eaters.

Outside Europe, countries with strong magic civilizations on all continents are extremely cautious about setting up joint forces.

After all, they have a good armed force, and letting the Federation's troops enter the country to investigate the dark wizard organization is a serious matter.

Even Chairman Kohaug, who has some friendship with Amos, found Amos privately and expressed his inner concerns to him.

But when Amos made a request to build a new surveillance mirror workshop in New York, Chairman Kohaug's worry suddenly dissipated a lot, and "reluctantly" agreed to support Amos's proposal.

Basically all the weak magic civilizations voted in favor of the establishment of a joint force.

For them, if a foreign dark wizard organization roamed into the country, it would undoubtedly be a disaster.

Not to mention evil organizations such as the Death Eaters, even small-scale dark wizard organizations in the country would be difficult for them to deal with.

The only regret of Amos was that the powerful Eastern civilization in Asia, after careful consideration, chose to refuse to sign the treaty.

However, Amos could understand it very well.

They themselves have an extremely deep foundation, coupled with the unique system of their Muggle society.

Allowing the joint forces to enter the country is indeed too sensitive for them.

And the passage of the proposal is not the end, but just the beginning.

The drafting of each clause of the mutual security treaty is a bloody storm, and the preparatory meeting was a fierce quarrel.

The specific definition of the concept of the black wizard terrorist organization;

The action program of the joint forces;

After entering the country, the action guidelines of the joint forces, whether they need to follow the laws of the country;

The cooperation between the joint forces and the local armed forces of each country;

The specific number of the joint forces and the number of people selected by the magic ministries of each country to join the joint forces;

The action budget of the joint forces;

The selection of members of the co-dispatching committee;

The mutual security treaty needs to be renewed every few years.

Even Amosta, who had anticipated the difficult situation, wanted to pull out his wand and speak with his "fists" when facing this endless quarrel!

However, fortunately, the tone of the establishment of the joint forces was set. After countless meetings for half a month, all parties finally reached a consensus.

Member states of the Mutual Security Treaty must select strikers to report to the headquarters of the International Wizarding Confederation within two months.

And pay the action budget for this year.

At the first meeting after the establishment of the Coordination Committee, Amostar, as a member of the Mutual Security Treaty and representing the British magic community, submitted an application to the committee, defining the Death Eaters as an international black wizard organization and applying for a joint force to strike against them in all regions.

This application was unanimously approved by the committee.

When the joint force is officially established two months later, these elite strikers from various countries will pursue and arrest the Death Eaters in all member states!

As soon as the meeting ended, Amostar immediately prepared to pack up and leave.

For more than half a month, every second in the headquarters, Amostar was constantly resisting the urge to take out his wand and burn something to death.

Even Dumbledore, who has lived for more than a century and has seen the wind and rain, has become much more haggard after more than half a month and countless meetings.

Every room in the Fairy Hotel is a vast world. After packing their luggage, the two people walked slowly on the cobblestone road with fallen leaves, heading towards the exit of the room.

Dumbledore paused in his steps. He stretched out his slender fingers and pinched a yellow dead leaf that was passing by in front of him. He stared deeply at the lines of the dead leaf, as if he was examining his own life. There was a trace of light in his blue eyes. There was a hint of sadness, and the long fluttering beard also made him look older.

"Two months' time--"

Throwing away the dead leaves, Dumbledore took another step. He looked sideways at Amosta, who was exuding a hint of hostility, with a smile.

"What do you think Tom will do in the meantime, Amosta?"

Ahem——

Amosta cleared his hoarse throat,

"The person who knows him best is you, Chairman and Headmaster Dumbledore. In short, you should not be optimistic and expect that he will surrender."

Dumbledore smiled.

"That's true, but I think Tom will no longer despise you. He will realize that in just three months, you have caused him more trouble than I have in the past thirty years - "

Amosta shook his head slightly.

"I don't particularly care what he thinks of me. The wheels of history are rolling forward. I only care about when the name 'Voldemort' will become history."

Dumbledore smiled, but fell silent.

Both Voldemort and himself will eventually be dusted by history, and the future belongs to young people.

"What are your next plans, Principal Dumbledore, do you plan to return to school?"

Sensing some fluctuations in Dumbledore's mood during the trial, Amosta raised his brows and turned his face to look into Dumbledore's eyes.

"Before that, I plan to go somewhere to try my luck--"

Dumbledore smiled and said lightly.

"Try your luck. Horcrux?"

Amosta narrowed his eyes, without much doubt in his tone.

The two men have a clear division of labor. Amosta is working in the open to combat and contain Voldemort's power, while Dumbledore has been secretly investigating Voldemort's strange past, digging out the secrets that can determine everything from the dusty history.

Dumbledore nodded slightly,

"That's right, there is a place. In fact, I didn't just think of that place, I had the idea a long time ago.

It’s just that I think it’s unlikely that that’s where Tom keeps his beloved Horcrux, but since the investigation has never made any progress, I think it’s better to try my luck there—”

Amosta got a little excited,

"Can I come with you, Headmaster Dumbledore?"

More than half a month of intense meetings had exhausted Amosta's energy. He didn't want to go back to Hogwarts for the time being and face the pile of official documents sent by the Ministry of Magic in his office.

"I can't think of any reason to refuse, Amosta—"

Dumbledore smiled and said,

"I hope we have good luck--" (End of Chapter)
