Hogwarts Homecoming

Chapter 921: Accepting Defeat

Amosta cast his gaze on Graves, who remained silent. After staring deeply for a few seconds, a strange color flashed in Amosta's eyes.

This is really an interesting thing.

At the joint review meeting to decide whether learning machines can enter the US market, Truck Graves, who led to this meeting that should not exist, not only did not say a word, but also used Occlumency to protect his thoughts.

Is there something that he doesn't want to expose in front of him? The real reason why he has been resistant to his performance during this period of time, and is even unwilling to meet with him before the review meeting?

To be honest, until now, Amosta has not been able to confirm why the man opposite him, Truck Graves, who has some gray hair and whose hard edges on his face profoundly interpret the word "high position", is so hostile to him. big.

However, from the restrictions he placed on himself, Amosta had some vague guesses.

The last possibility is that Clark Graves doesn't want to follow in his grandfather's footsteps.

More than half a century ago, when Percival Graves was the Director of the Magical Law Enforcement Department and Minister of Security of the Magical Congress of the United States of America, he encountered the Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald. He was imprisoned, and Grindelwald also pretended to be his identity and entered the Magic Congress. In a series of events, this almost caused the wizarding world to be completely exposed to the eyes of Muggles.

This is a disgrace to the Graves family. Based on this, it is very reasonable for Trak Grindelwald to feel disgusted and even resistant to a wizard with extraordinary powers like himself.

Although he has gained a high reputation in the international magic community over the years, some astute wizards can judge his acting style through the way he handles some crises, and understand that rules cannot completely constrain them.

Therefore, Graves was worried that after entering the American wizarding world, he would abuse his magic power to pursue his goals. He even subdued him privately and controlled him. This was a reasonable inference from people who didn't know him well, and an experienced old Auror. Due caution.

In addition, it is an indisputable fact that in the outskirts of Berlin, without knowing the German Ministry of Magic, he directly uprooted the involvement of the Wiccan Party, causing a stir that was witnessed by most of the Muggles in Berlin.

As Trak Graves, who is responsible for the security and stability of the American wizarding world, he absolutely hates this kind of thing.

Therefore, Amosta has always shown no anger towards the Security Department for confiscating his wand and asking Amelia to follow him. Maybe he will do the same.

Of course, Amosta has not forgotten the clues provided by Narlak.

The moment their eyes made contact, Amosta could detect a deep unnaturalness and panic hidden in Graves' dark red eyes.

Are you afraid of retaliating against him, or are you afraid of seeing the true condition of his body?

Speaking of which, the Minister of Security is currently in quite a lot of trouble. His body is like a dye vat, with multiple forces entangled in it - Graves' own magic power, a kind of cold energy that exudes coldness. Magic. This probably comes from the dark magic damage he suffered when he killed the vampire, the magic of the unicorn's blood and the curse he suffered from drinking the blood of this creature.

These forces were rooted in his body, blending with each other and conflicting with each other. It is conceivable that he probably suffered unimaginable pain.

The only solution Amosta can think of to solve this difficult and complicated disease is to use stronger power to seal all the magic power in his body. This may be able to maintain his remaining life, but the price he has to pay is, Gray Wes has since become a squib, unable to use magic anymore.

As Trak Graves, who came from a distinguished family and was also an outstanding wizard, Amosta didn't think he could accept such a 'humiliating' second half of his life.

"That's right, Mr. Graves—"

After pondering for a moment, Amosta intertwined his fingers, looked at Graves calmly and said,

"The Department of Security has always been responsible for the people of the American wizarding community and has been cautious about the use of illusion magic by learning machines to interfere with the spirit of users."

Amosta used a different approach today to pass on the conflict between him and Graves over the entry of learning machines into the American wizarding community. From a political perspective, this is undoubtedly his victory and Graves's disastrous defeat. , it is not surprising that this powerful man would become a laughing stock.

But as said before, Amosta is here for business, not to make enemies for himself.

Even if the situation of Amosta's spying on Graves' body is not optimistic and he may not live long, the Graves family is a powerful political family, and Amosta does not want to be restricted by it.

"I admire this kind of questioning and responsible attitude from a professional perspective——"

Graves heard it, and so did Marcil, including some experienced officials in this conference room. They all understood what Amosta Brain wanted to express.

Amosta Brain hopes to save some of Mr. Graves’ lost face, so as not to cause other obstacles to Mr. Graves and his family in the future.

"So far, the review materials submitted by Mr. Lupine to MACUSA do not include the construction drawings of the magic corridor in the core component of the learning machine, because this is the core secret of the learning machine, and we cannot expose it, but to express our With respect to the Security Department, Mr. Graves, you can form a team of experts who are proficient in alchemy. As long as they sign a confidentiality contract with me, I am willing to share the core secrets of the learning machine with them so that they can go out safely in an objective and detailed manner. Evaluation Report."

Amosta said calmly.

Share the composition of the magic corridor that is the core component of the learning machine? !

Remus, who had been humbly learning Amosta's ways and methods of solving troubles, suddenly turned pale and almost jumped up from his stool!

It is not difficult to restore the structure of the learning machine through reverse reasoning. As long as you can find out the supply chain of the learning machine and buy one and disassemble it, a wizard who is proficient in alchemy can restore it. In fact, Remus knew that it had always been Someone tried to do this. When he was managing the workshop, he had already dealt with several cases of workers in the workshop leaking secrets.

And the reason is that so far, the learning machine is still unique to their family, and Gein's core secret is still in their hands.

But in order to prove the safety performance of the learning machine to the Ministry of Security, Amosta actually wanted to share the composition of the magic corridor. Even if he signed a confidentiality contract, this did not mean that it was completely safe!

Amosta's sincerity was simply astonishing, and even the thoughts of Marcil and the thoughtful Graves on the opposite side were frozen for a moment.

However, as senior officials of the Congress, the two people still had excellent concentration. Within a few breaths, their expressions returned to normal.

If Graves really agrees to it, will Amosta Brain be angry about it?

The alarm bell rang in Marcil's heart. She would never tolerate any more disturbances in this matter that was already a sure thing!

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and Marcil unexpectedly smiled before Graves and said,

"The learning machine has been in use in the European wizarding community for many years. Judging from the feedback from users, it is completely safe as long as you pay attention to the frequency of use. I fully believe that Mr. Blaine and Mr. Albus Dumbledore are working on alchemy. Technical attainments, right, Trak?"

Principal Dumbledore?

Amosta narrowed his eyes. He had never publicized the development of the learning machine with the help of Dumbledore. Is Marcil saying this to borrow Dumbledore's good reputation?

"It doesn't have to be that way, Mr. Blaine--"

After the whole meeting, Graves finally spoke to Amosta. His cheeks were tense, his body was sitting upright, and he said in a deep voice,

"Indeed. Since the development and design of the learning machine has been supported by Mr. Albus Dumbledore, and Mr. Brain is even willing to publish the composition of the magic corridor with the missing core, considering that this wonderful invention has been officially launched in various European countries The market has been in the market for a while and there has been no serious accident that harmed the awareness of usage.

Well, here, on behalf of the Ministry of Security and the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, I can confirm that the Venus Learning Machine developed and designed by you is a safe and harmless alchemy product."
