Hogwarts' Wizarding Throne

The exposed palace always seemed a little strange to Draco and his people who saw it for the first time.

On the pentagram-shaped white jade Xumi foundation stood a purple palace with a round spire.

The spire had nine eaves, on which nine winged "white snakes" crawled, guarding a miniature throne together.

If someone with experience, this palace might be familiar to you. It might be a combination of the Chinese Qin and Han style hip-and-gable roof.

Wengo, who had traveled far and wide to seek medical treatment, looked thoughtful.

"What a majestic palace!"

"What kind of palace is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Draco and Alice walked in, looking around curiously.

Percy did not follow, he was still waiting there.

After a while, purple-clothed figures appeared one after another, all of them were high-level officials from the Ministry of Magic and the Pentagram.

Among the people who came were Lucius and Fudge.

Therefore, this meeting was not limited to the core members of the throne.

The crowd waited silently until the last person arrived.

Percy counted in his mind, and the 28 people who should have arrived were all there, so he took out the note again and circulated it to everyone.

Many of these people have seen this palace, after all, the palace was built by their hands.

However, some people have not seen it, and after seeing the revealed palace, they exclaimed for a while.

"Wow! It's spectacular!"

"Is it nine bird snakes or something!"

"......."

The group lined up in two rows and walked along the white stone steps to the top of the palace.

Percy heard the noisy discussion behind him, and suddenly turned back and said seriously.

"Quiet!"

Not to mention, Percy's scolding was very effective, and those discussions disappeared immediately.

Although many people were dissatisfied with this fledgling boy, they did not dare to question him out loud.

After all, in the past two months, many people have been eyed by Percy, the new director of the Supervision Department.

Lucius narrowed his eyes and glanced at Percy, sighing in his heart that the Weasley family had produced an outlier, and he was really a "political enemy". He had to be more careful about his words and deeds in the future.

"Crack!"

He suddenly heard the sound of teeth grinding in his ears. He looked sideways and saw Fudge lowering his head, biting his back teeth tightly, with deep jealousy in his eyes.

Lucius was amused in his heart. He, who was not on good terms with Weasley, had not yet lost his temper.

Fudge was indeed a weirdo. Once the situation improved, he would easily think about all sorts of things.

Everyone came to the arched solid wood door that was two meters high, and the door slowly opened.

"Creak!"

What came into view was a black and red carpet that extended from the door to the innermost steps.

There was a luxurious purple and gold throne on the steps, and the backrest of the throne was made of a pair of crossed wings.

The steps were divided into four areas, with green, red, blue and yellow colors, and 13 exquisite thrones of different heights were arranged in each area.

The general layout here was similar to the throne room in the Room of Requirement.

Alice and her group of people who arrived earlier were all waiting at the entrance at this moment, and they did not take their seats individually.

Because there were three purple fire curtains burning above the carpet in front, the steaming flames blocked the scene in the palace.

Under the leadership of Percy, a group of adult wizards who came later also came to line up behind Alice.

They looked at the young wizards in front of them who could be in the front row, and their hearts were itching with jealousy and envy.

Percy came to the front alone, nodded to Alice, and turned around to announce.

"Before the meeting begins, we will conduct a loyalty test every six months. You can make a few laps and control yourself. You know the result of running around randomly."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the purple fire curtain calmly, and Alice and others immediately followed.

These core members of the throne stepped through three purple fire curtains without hesitation, leaving the adult wizards who came later speechless.

Some people who didn't know the inside story were shocked. Are the young wizards now so brave?

Lucius looked at the young wizards who began to sit in their own seats, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

He asked craftsmen to make these thrones. He spent a lot of effort, but he didn't get a share.

Yu Guangzhong looked at his son who was also dressed in gorgeous clothes but looked very shy.

Lucius, the father, was somewhat uncomfortable.

In addition to being embarrassed that his son's status here was higher than his own.

He was also surprised that Draco could break through the third fire curtain. How could he, as a father, not know what kind of virtue his son was?

Then he was relieved again. This was definitely Shaw secretly letting him go.

However, he also knew the reason why Draco could become the core of the throne.

This was just a carrot hanging in front of the donkey.

Alas, it is because of the dark history of the Malfoy family thatI have never been completely trusted by Shaw.

The two families seem to have a close relationship now, but it is only because of relatives and some interests.

Shaw does not regard himself as a confidant, but he cannot let his heart down, so he simply gives Draco a sequence that is neither high nor low, and he did not make Draco embarrassed today.

If it were not for a special occasion like today, Lucius would not mind it very much.

As a mature head of the family, he deeply knows the secret of the Malfoy family's continuation for a thousand years. It is not loyalty, but the bond of common interests.

And this thought is enough for him to break through the second fire curtain.

After thinking it through, Lucius did not hesitate like last time, and boldly led the way to the fire curtain.

Fudge beside him gritted his teeth and followed. Last time he only stepped over the passing line of the first fire circle, this time he must pass the second fire curtain.

Obviously, in the pentagram, loyalty is more important than ability.

The people behind also began to catch up. Those who can be called to attend the meeting naturally have no dissidents.

Those who took the test for the first time today had also heard about this Fire Style loyalty test from others.

In the face of life and death, no one dared to joke.

Most people stopped between the first and second fire curtains, and a small number of people stopped between the second and third fire curtains. "Coincidentally", they all fit their positions in their respective organizations.

As for the third fire curtain, no one dared to enter.

Fudge was a little stubborn and wanted to try, but he still remembered those people who turned to ashes last time.

The purple fire curtain slowly began to extinguish at this time, revealing the whole picture of the hall.

In the seats of the four directions, except for Hufflepuff, there were people sitting in the other three parties.

The order changed slightly.

Wingo became the 9th of Spades, replacing Theodore's previous position. Theodore was not present today, but the seat dedicated to the Ace of Spades showed that it had an owner.

Astoria became the 2nd of Spades.

Percy had previously held the 10 of hearts, but now he had changed it to the Ace of hearts.

Perhaps only Shaw understood the meaning of the Ace.

Now everyone was less jealous of those who had seats, after all, loyalty was indeed unmatched.

Percy left his seat and arranged for all those standing to stand in two rows in front of the steps of the throne, and then everyone looked at the empty purple-gold throne.

At this moment, a dragon roar came from the dome.

"Roar!"
