Hogwarts: I am Voldemort

During the rash visit that day, neither party revealed their bottom line.

But when leaving, the queen still used some tricks:

She left Dumbledore behind and had a private conversation.

Voldemort did not ask Dumbledore about this matter.

He believed that Dumbledore's position and wisdom determined his choice.

No matter what the Queen told him at the time, he would never betray the wizarding world.

As for asking the old man to fully support him, Voldemort felt that was unrealistic.

Dumbledore's philosophy is fundamentally different from his own.

If divided by political factions, Voldemort belongs to the hawks, the more extreme group.

Dumbledore is the complete opposite. He is a conservative, and the kind of conservative who does not want to take the initiative.

Unless he brings chaos to the wizarding world, this old man would rather hide in Hogwarts and live a life of teaching and educating people as always.

Voldemort also thought it was good for him to be like this, both for himself and for himself.

After the Queen's incident ended, Voldemort's life became really peaceful.

He did not rashly point fingers at the Ministry of Magic, nor did he send a large number of people to the Ministry of Magic.

At a time when the entire wizarding world and the Muggle monarchy were paying attention to him, he focused his main energy on the renovation of Gunter Castle - Alnwick Castle had been officially renamed.

Transforming a castle from an ordinary castle into a magical castle is not an easy task.

If it is newly built and has core magic items, such as Gaunt Library, it will be easy.

But for a castle like Gunter Castle, which has existed for many years and does not have a core magic item, the transformation process will be extremely difficult.

“It’s troublesome, but it’s really exciting.”

Hermione, who was involved in the renovation of the castle, flushed with excitement.

The two had discussed the Magic Castle when Voldemort was still her professor, and Hermione was really excited to be personally involved in this matter.

The complete opposite of her situation is Luna. She and her teacher also moved to Gunter Castle, but she was immersed in magic all day long.

In a similar situation, there is Neville.

This boy is now as strong as a cow. He practices magic and swordsmanship by the lake every day. Mrs. Longbottom feels heartbroken when she sees him.

Before the summer vacation ended, Draco also stayed here for a short time.

But apart from asking for advice on power issues, he showed no interest in learning magic or renovating the castle.

Voldemort did not force this.

When school starts again, they will be fourth graders and already fifteen years old.

In the wizarding world, this age is close to adulthood, and they have to make their own choices.

In addition to these children, Percy also came to visit once and asked him about the Triwizard Tournament.

"A few more places, or a few more academies, in short, don't make it a game of just a few people."

Voldemort gave his own advice, "I think Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is good. Although there is no precedent, we should always try to integrate more wizards and don't close ourselves off."

Percy fully accepted Voldemort's advice.

Because he was able to obtain the right to organize this competition only with the support of Voldemort and Crouch.

Compared to Crouch's selective support, Voldemort could give him everything he had.

Almost all pure-blood nobles, or those with power within his reach, supported Percy in this matter.

Otherwise, given Percy's qualifications, why would he be responsible for such a big matter just one year after joining the Ministry of Magic?

Even with the support of Crouch, who has become a minister, it is impossible to do it.

Only Voldemort could push him to this position.

"I understand what you mean, teacher. I will send an invitation to the United States."

Percy, who was becoming more and more tactful in his dealings, decisively agreed and asked again, "Do you need me to do anything in this competition?"

This question was not subtle at all, but Voldemort was very satisfied with it.

He wasn't hidden because Percy regarded him as one of his own.

If it is really a hidden inquiry, it means that there is a problem between the two people.

"I need this Triwizard Tournament to attract the attention of all of Europe and even the entire wizarding world, especially the Americas. It's best to focus their attention here."

Voldemort rubbed his cane and said, "When necessary, you can even take the initiative to cause some 'injustice', do you understand?"

Percy thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let their public opinion fully discuss this matter?"

"Yes."

Voldemort nodded with satisfaction. As a student, he was really ready to teach.

"I will let Pochs cooperate with you and try to make this competition a global live broadcast. Of course, it will only be for the wizarding world's channels."

"That's a good idea."

Percy's eyes lit up and he said, "I have had this idea for a long time, to bring officials and the people closer, through television, as if they were communicating face to face."

Voldemort laughed happily after hearing this.

"It's a good idea, Percy. I'll let Porchis provide free TVs to all wizards in England, but you know, how to solve the problem of electricity is also a problem, which requires you to find a way to promote."

As Voldemort said, he suddenly had an idea and said, "Let your twin brothers do some funny shows, they will be very popular."

"I will, teacher. In fact, they love those shows too, they learned that from Hermione, and they even tried to make their own shows at one point."

After Percy finished speaking, he smiled bitterly and said, "But poverty limits them. Teacher, you know that the Weasley family is not rich."

"I can sponsor them and let them come to my place. I think we can communicate face to face." Voldemort said without hesitation.

Fort Gunter is huge, and there is no one else in the Riddle family except him.

So, he doesn't mind it being used by more people.

Even the Harry Potter crew has confirmed that this will be a filming location.

Originally, Voldemort wanted to use Hogwarts directly, but Dumbledore refused. The old guy's ideas were still very feudal.

"If you want to do that... I will tell them, but my mother may not agree to this." Percy said with some embarrassment.

"It's their business to form a company together. Whether we agree or not is their business. You just need to bring the words to me and don't worry about the rest." Voldemort waved his hand indifferently.

If the Weasley brothers don't come, he will hire professionals from the Muggle world. The show produced in this way may not be worse than the one produced by the Weasley brothers.

"Also, Percy, before you do those things, you have to discuss it with Minister Crouch, and you still need to show the necessary respect." Voldemort reminded again.

"I know, teacher." After Percy agreed, he said goodbye and left Fort Gunter.

Now this popular figure in the Ministry of Magic is busier than Voldemort.
