7 years

Ilan Burke: 7 years old

Two years passed since we started our moves. Alfred and I become really busy. While he was gathering and acting, I was improving myself and doing the plans. Everyone would be shocked if they see who the "Master of the plan" is. After all, not only my age is outrage, but all companies that I design becomes incredibly popular and profitable.

Thinking about it, Alfred is the best one that I would ask for. He is loyal and, the most important, doesn't ask how I could possibly know so many subjects. It helps, also, that we are focused on the same goal.

The first step we made was to win a lot of muggle money. That's was kind of easy. Alfred stole millions from drug dealers and traffickers, imperiozed two billionaires Africans, and started many money laundering companies. With all the money we could wash, I made many investments in stocks that I knew were profitable.

All in all, we have billions of pounds and French franc for our disposal, in many different sources. That is something that intrigues me; I can understand why the pureblood doesn't really care, but the muggleborn would live better if they were millionaires in muggle world. Do they have a strong moral behavior or they don't know how to laundry?

As for companies that we create, I named them from the Greek Gods, an inspiration for their future greatness.

Our primary is the Aphrodite's Secrets. A company focused on cosmetics and clothes, especially for women. It's the hottest topic in French in these two years. Its products consist of a lipstick adjusted by runes (it makes the lips prominent and "healthy"), cosmetics improved by potions (face powder, eye shadow, shampoo, body cream…) and perfumes intensifies by charm. As for clothes, we use silk and liner, launching a more modern style (and hopefully, we can pass this medieval theme). That is incredible how many items a woman can demand!

We made the muggles companies do the products (that we modified) exclusive for us, and we changed a little their packing with runes and charms. Thankfully, there is nothing like an inspection section from the ministry; they only test if there is no harm. Soon, when they become irreplaceable in wizard life, and we become strong enough, we will not need to care about hiding anymore. And, to advance even more, Alfred and I made an alliance with the Lefevre.

The Lefevre is an important French pureblood family. One can compare them with the Greengrass in Britain (with less prejudice against muggle). The matriarch, Mrs. Lefevre, become the CEO of Aphrodite's Secrets, which helped a lot in the company expansion. Not only gives the company more credibility in the face of French Society, her well placed stores makes the sell easier. For no future betrays, we made a magical contract. We also did the same with our employees; there are some clauses that restring them for divulging or copy our method.

It's best to divide a big cake than try to chew it entirely and ending with a bellyache.

The second corporation is the Dionysu's, a company that offers many kinds of foods. Like the Aphrodite, the Dionysu's has some branch stores. One that's versed in alcohol drinks (modified muggle wines, whisks, Shandon …), other than sells candies and chocolates (Truffles, jelly's), and another that's a restaurant (mostly like a fast food one, which turn to be really popular, as the waiting for the food is less than a minute. Muggle knowledge plus magic do wonders). The main customer for the company is kids and middle-age men.

The same thing was done, and in Dionysu's case, we choose the Cornillac family. The CEO is Mr. Cornillac. The family seems like the Longbottom.

For the last one, The HepH (I didn't name Hephaestus to not easily connected with others companies. They might discover later, but it's important to not be so soon) it is a company turned to magical and charmed objects. The company creates magical objects and modifies the muggle ones. Our chief product is muggle's car modified (invisibility, increase and decrease in size). And the CEO is Monsieur Delacour, as he already has some controversy marrying a part Veela, one more is nothing much.

Alfred comes saying "Like we expected, the purists made some retaliation against the HepH"

"Huff, they are really hypocrites, we know some of them bought our HepH's products. But that's exactly what we need. While their focus is on HepH, Aphrodite and Dionysu's can raise freely."

"Yes, Young Master. And give us an excuse to create a private security"

"Good. We only need to be careful to not attract Voldyhole attention. We don't want and can't fight them now. Fortunately, the devastation that Grindelwald did is still in French mind. They don't want to see another war soon"

"That's true. But if they conquer Britain, a war that included all Europe is inevitable."

"Let's leave it for the future. What we need now is the Will of A (res), a private army security, and the H.A.D.E.S (a project to gather information and control the underworld)."

"With how much money we gain, that's going to be smooth" said Alfred

"Changing topics, how is the Order meeting?" Order of Zeus is the boarding commander of our companies. I have 45% of each company as the other 3 CEOs have also 45% for their respective ones. And the Order has the remaining 10%. In other words, who controls the Order, has the final opinion. For now, Alfred is the president.

"Peaceful. They all agree with the creation of Will of A and including to the Order. But Young Master, do you think it was prudent to let the President of Order a voting post? We could lose its control…"

"It was necessary, and we have an oath agreement that the next voting will be 8 years from now. That's more than enough to secure the majority of votes, be including more companies in my command, or making them know that I'm the best choice." I was saying while looking to the semitransparent screen:

For the 2 levels that I gain, I chose Magical Force and Improve in broom drive.
