Chapter 121: The Tale of the Three Brothers

Listening to Arthur's self-introduction, Frank fell silent.

He couldn't believe that after spending half his life in Diagon Alley, he ended up under the control of a Hogwarts student.

Has the level of education at Hogwarts suddenly gotten so good?

But why does the name Arthur Gaunt sound so familiar?

Frank looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "Are you the young wizard who created the Wolfsbane Potion? The person who was given the Order of Merlin? Arthur Gaunt?"

Arthur nodded and said that he had done these things.

Frank suddenly realized why the Alia family could get the Wolfsbane Potion for sale and recruit a group of werewolf wizards.

The inventor of the potion turned out to be their secret boss.

He also recalled the story of Arthur in the newspapers, and his mouth twitched in madness...

Frank now wanted to grab the person who wrote that article by the collar and make him carefully look at the ruins and the wizards who were left behind with nothing but ashes.

Is this the person they call kind-hearted? Someone who enjoys helping others?

But it was too late.

He was now Arthur's subordinate, and all he could do was obey Arthur's orders in the hopes of making his owner happy and getting a bone as his reward.

...

Arthur didn't want to stay in the destruction after seeing that the problem had been solved.

After giving some brief instructions, he returned to Alia Mansion on his own.

The others stayed behind to clean up.

After Arthur left, Lockhart couldn't help but sigh, "It is amazing how successfully he plans, It's terrifying."

Alia and Frank looked at him with curiosity, not knowing what he was saying.

Alia thought Lockhart had more opportunities to interact with Arthur as a Hogwarts professor and probably knew him better.

Lockhart looked at the curious team and began to analyze Arthur's "strategy."

"Arthur is now in charge of the three families and has taken over Knockturn Alley. And Knockturn Alley is where British dark wizards are gathering place. He now has power over a large number of low-level dark wizards and a large number of resources.

"As for me, he has put me in the spotlight. I will go to the Ministry of Magic when the semester is over. With your help and the resources that you give me, I can quickly rise and take a high position."

Lockhart smiled with satisfaction. He liked it when people looked at him with such admiration.

Then, he let his imagination as a bestselling author run wild and explained Arthur's "plan."

"You know, he was awarded the Order of Merlin, and his fame among young wizards is unmatched. He is even believed to be the sidekick of the chosen one, Harry Potter."

"While I publicly control the entire situation, you are in charge of the dark side, and he presents a very righteous image to the outside world. So..."

At this point, Lockhart stopped on purpose for a few seconds and looked at the two people who were listening to every word he said.

He then said the conclusion with a sense of satisfaction.

"Arthur Gaunt, his goal is to become the uncrowned king of all Britain! Not a Dark Lord, not a Good Lord, but everything!"

Taking a long breath, Lockhart calmed the excitement in his heart.

"So that's how it is."

After listening to Lockhart's explanation, Frank finally understood everything.

"Defeated by a wizard like him, I can't complain about losing," he sighed and couldn't help but be impressed by Arthur's ambition.

With Arthur's current strength and future potential, along with his thoughtful planning and big plans, it is possible that in the future, he could rule not only all of Britain but also all of Europe.

Frank couldn't calm down even when he just thought about it.

Sometimes dreams are one thing, and reality is another.

But now, Arthur's appearance gives him the possibility to fulfill his own dreams. Even Alia's eyes were shining at this moment.

She wasn't expecting that the lazy little wizard who always sat on her lap would have such a deep plan.

She secretly made up her mind to help Arthur achieve these goals.

"This is not the place to talk. Let's meet at my mansion another day and discuss it properly," Alia ended the conversation.

She needed to gather some information to develop future plans.

On the other hand, Arthur was unaware of all this.

After returning to the mansion, he took out the Cloak of Invisibility and started studying it.

Before the Christmas break, Arthur had borrowed Harry's Cloak of Invisibility.

Harry gave the Cloak of Invisibility to Arthur without any problems, which made the Cloak of Invisibility, as one of the Deathly Hallows, feel a little embarrassed.

Arthur had been looking at the Invisibility Cloak and Salazar research materials for the past few days.

Arthur learned some tricks as time passed. Harry's cloak was different from others.

Most of the other Cloaks of Invisibility were made from the fur of invisibility creatures.

However, these cloaks had a lot of problems and would lose their effectiveness over time.

But Harry's cloak had been around for thousands of years and was still in good shape. Even Arthur couldn't figure out what it was made of.

The most important thing he found out was that Harry's Cloak of Invisibility could hide a person's breath and even their life force.

He tried putting his house-elf on the cloak, but no matter what he did, he couldn't sense the house-elf's presence unless he touched it.

This reminded him of "The Tale of the Three Brothers" in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard," where only the third brother's cloak was Death's own equipment.

While the other two were hurriedly made from stones and branches found on the riverbank by Death.

Arthur became even more convinced that this cloak was extraordinary.
