Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

#169 - Director of the Education Department, Grindelwald!

This mutated Venomous Tentacula seed is really expensive.

But despite that, it was the first time Levid had ever seen a mutated seed appear.

He decided to read the description and then buy one to take a look.

As for the other items.

Levid had no interest in the Compound Potion or the Dragon Egg.

Levid could make the Compound Potion himself, without spending any merit points.

As for the Dragon Egg… Levid reckoned that he didn't have the ability to tame a dragon at the moment.

Even Hagrid, such a powerful magical creature expert, ran into a lot of trouble when hatching the Norwegian Ridgeback.

Levid still had some self-awareness. Even if he wanted to get a dragon to play with, he would have to wait until later, after learning more about magical creatures and gaining more experience from Newt.

Besides, dragon eggs weren't something difficult to get, and they weren't worth spending hundreds of merit points on.

As for the third item, the Whomping Willow seed… Levid took it down without much hesitation.

The Whomping Willow is a very rare magical plant, and now it's very rare. Even if he doesn't plant it, it may have other uses in the future.

Anyway, 700 merit points isn't too expensive.

Immediately afterwards, Levid focused his attention on the fourth item.

[Mutated Venomous Tentacula: Although the attributes are unknown, and the direction of mutation is unknown, it represents another possibility for the development of magical creatures… ]

“Another possibility for the development of magical creatures… Then genetically modified magical plants aren't a dead end…” Levid muttered to himself.

As everyone knows, magical plants, if used properly, also have a certain combat function, such as Biting Cabbage and Mandrakes.

So… is it possible to cultivate magical plants specifically to assist in combat?

However, magical plants are, after all, completely different from ordinary plants, so some of Levid's previous knowledge may not be of much help in changing magical plants.

“If this seed can give me some inspiration… then it's really worth 2000 merit points!”

A sample! A mutated sample!

Levid had also tried to mutate magical plants slightly before.

After all, the Biting Cabbage he grew was bigger than ordinary ones, so it should also be a mutated variety.

However, because the degree of mutation was too small, Levid couldn't study anything different.

And now, a living mutated seed is placed in front of him…

“Bought!”

… …

London.

In a quiet manor.

Grindelwald was sitting in the pavilion reading a book.

He didn't go to the Ministry of Magic today, but took a small vacation for himself.

He decided to stay at home today to conceive his book.

And the manor where he was located was his new home in London.

Of course, this time he directly purchased the manor from a Muggle rich man, instead of killing the owner of the manor.

His career had just started to improve, and he didn't want to be caught so easily.

“Sir.” Abernathy walked over from a distance, “The Ministry of Magic has agreed to your suggestion.”

“Oh? So fast?” Grindelwald was a little surprised.

According to his idea, the Ministry of Magic would have to discuss this proposal for a few days.

Then he could just use these few days to do other things, and also let this matter ferment among the public.

Unexpectedly, only a day had passed, and the Ministry of Magic had made a decision?

“Fawley asked Dumbledore for his opinion, and then Dumbledore directly agreed.” Abernathy said.

Grindelwald narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

“Dumbledore… It seems you are ready to accept the challenge…”

“Fawley would like to ask you to come up with a reform plan, because you proposed this matter.” Abernathy said.

Grindelwald smiled and said: “My job is only to make suggestions, not including others… The reform plan is of course done by themselves. After all, I am just a consultant… You relay my words to Fawley. He will understand what I mean.”

… …

Minister Fawley is now in a state of anxiety.

Grindelwald moved his lips and gave suggestions easily.

However, this kind of major reform, from the initial planning to the changes, requires consideration of all aspects!

But the people want to see the Ministry of Magic implement it quickly.

It's okay if it's done well, but if there are any mistakes, he will have to take the blame…

Originally, the best implementer should be Grindelwald himself.

Because after all, he proposed the reform.

But… what Minister Fawley didn't expect was that Grindelwald actually quit at this time!

Of course, Minister Fawley understood why Grindelwald wanted to quit!

He is asking himself for a real position!

Grindelwald is obviously not satisfied with his current position as a consultant!

However, the positions in the Ministry of Magic have always been one radish in one hole.

To leave a position for Grindelwald, someone has to be kicked out…

The key is not to kick out one person, but that Grindelwald is seeking power!

Since Grindelwald is seeking power… then his own minister position…

Minister Fawley is really panicked now.

He believes that if Grindelwald is determined to take his position, he is really likely to succeed…

Helpless, Minister Fawley had to take over the matter.

He would rather be in a state of anxiety than agree to Grindelwald's request for power!

Because once this opening is made, there is no way to stop it!

What made him feel slightly relieved was that Grindelwald didn't seem to have any objections to his decision.

It was completely different from what he had imagined, that Grindelwald would come to threaten him…

Even in the next few days, when Grindelwald met him in the Ministry, he would greet him kindly, as if nothing had happened.

However… since Minister Fawley rejected Grindelwald's request, he naturally didn't ask about these reforms.

It's as if he really just made a suggestion and that was it.

Fortunately, Minister Fawley has been a minister for so many years, and he is not useless. There are also many talented people around him.

No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one capacity, one in, one look!

In addition to Dumbledore's assistance, after spending more than a week, he finally completed a comprehensive reform plan under pressure.

However, although the plan was perfect, he encountered obstacles when he started implementing it…

Fawley was surprised to find that there were many people in the Ministry that he couldn't seem to mobilize!

He naturally knew who was playing tricks!

Is he planning to keep tripping himself up as long as he doesn't agree to give him a real position?

Minister Fawley felt extremely aggrieved for a while.

If he had known this, he might as well have straightened his back and directly rejected Grindelwald, as Dumbledore said!

It wouldn't be like it is now, being restrained by Grindelwald everywhere…

In this way, the reform of the Ministry of Magic proceeded with stumbling blocks.

However, due to the constraints of all parties, even if Fawley's plan was very perfect, it failed to make the reform's effect better.

On the contrary, due to the uncooperative nature of various departments, when the trial assessment for the recruitment of some positions began, they couldn't even gather enough examiners!

Even on the day of the exam, the test questions had not been prepared yet!

The efficiency of the Ministry of Magic made the public indignant…

If it can't be improved, Minister Fawley's position as minister… may fall off even before Grindelwald comes to take it!

Helpless, Minister Fawley had to ask Dumbledore what to do.

However, Dumbledore's answer to him was only one…

“Give it to him. Give him what he wants.”

This made Minister Fawley even more desperate…

He once suspected that Dumbledore had reconciled with his former best friend…

However, Dumbledore's explanation to him was also very simple and direct, “If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy… Grindelwald is most likely to show his flaws when he is complacent…”

Minister Fawley had to choose from the real positions, wanting to choose a real position with relatively less power for Grindelwald…

Like the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, this kind of real position must not be given to Grindelwald.

After thinking for several days, Minister Fawley finally gave the answer…

A few days later.

When Grindelwald received an appointment letter as the Director of the Department of Education, he almost laughed out of anger.

But he had to admire Minister Fawley's slickness.

The Director of the Department of Education is indeed the one with the least power among all real positions…

But it may also be the one that Grindelwald is most interested in.

Because although this position seems to have the least power among the real positions, it… can clearly influence young wizards!

The fact that Voldemort had to come back specifically to find a teaching position after graduation… is enough to show how important it is to be able to influence young wizards who have not yet graduated in school.

So, of course, Grindelwald is interested in this position.

Of course, this is not the most important thing!

Everyone knows that now only Dumbledore can fight Grindelwald… and Dumbledore is still a professor.

So, as long as Grindelwald is put into the education system, he will naturally be able to fight with Dumbledore.

When Grindelwald's attention is focused on Dumbledore, Fawley himself will be much cleaner…

Moreover, the Director of the Department of Education is already old and frail and is preparing to retire.

Replacing him will not offend people!

I have to say that Minister Fawley's plan is indeed very thorough.

Grindelwald did not refuse the appointment.

At the same time that Grindelwald happily took office, Minister Fawley was pleasantly surprised to find that the people he originally couldn't mobilize could now be mobilized suddenly.

In this way, the reform of the Ministry of Magic finally got on the right track…

With the renewal of the recruitment system, countless wizards who wanted to seek progress came to participate in the Ministry of Magic's assessment.

Even those with insufficient skills came to experience it…

Although they knew that their skills were not enough, what if they passed? Wouldn't they just get on board directly?

For a time, there was an endless stream of wizards who came to participate in the recruitment assessment.

Moreover, as some wizards who were originally unable to display their talents got the opportunity and successfully “got on board.”

Grindelwald's reputation has also changed somewhat unknowingly…
