Chapter 29: Subduing the Werewolves
Alexander moved towards the portal and ordered 50 best scientists to assemble before the realm gate. Alexander then opened the portal and transferred them to the Harry Potter world. Alexander then gave them the ability to use magic and transferred to them all the knowledge he had of runes and rituals along with the memory of creation of the first werewolf. Alexander then ordered them to research a way to solve the bloodline issue of the werewolves.
The lycanthropy as called by the current magicals was not a magical disease but a bloodline like vampires. As Alexander had told Jack and Sarah, werewolves were the predecessors of the vampires. When the first werewolves were released in the wild by the ancient magi, they were dying as their bodies were rejecting the changes done to it but before death one experimented woman gave birth. The woman was pregnant at the time of experiment and the ancient magi did not knew this, even if they knew they would not have stopped as the ancient magi were mad shits. The ritualistic magic got divided between mother and child due to this, the mother survived till giving birth. The child was a born werewolf or the first natural werewolf. The reason the child did not die was because his unborn body adapted to the magic of the ritual and the genetic makeup of the child changed. The magic present in the lycanthrope gene activated on the full moon. Why is that Alexander was not interested as he had more important things to view in the past like how a magi ascended to godhood and then destroyed magic itself in a fit of rage. ( A.N :/: Spoilers 😅😅😅)
As Alexander had already transferred all this knowledge to his scientists but was reviewing this in order to convince werewolves to join him. Alexander was going to try his luck at the convincing leader thing but if werewolves didn't agree to submit to him then Alexander would have to revert back to intimidation and death threats and also offing some stubborn fellows. As werewolves themselves saw their condition as a disease, they would be happy to know that they were not diseased but a result of experiments of sick wizards of ancient past. Now, what was bad being a diseased person or result of an experiment, Alexander was not sure as he didn't have much insight into the thinking of magical people as being around magic screws your morals quite a bit. A society where using love potions to attract attention, compelltion charms and memory charms on people who could not even sense them is considered alright, that society is not an example of a moral society.
Alexander then ordered Carter and the elves to prepare some things which would be useful in capturing a large number of werewolves. There was a increase in number of werewolves in the magical society as Grindlewald had various magical and non magical captives transformed into werewolves in order to be used as meat shields. Alexander then proceeded to take a stroll across the garden as working too much makes one's mind slow. Alexander planned to take a short vacation from all this conquering after he conquers the Harry Potter world.
For the next 3 days, nothing much of importance happened except Charles Potter wrote a letter to Alexander in order to invite him to a dinner with his friends. Alexander sure as hell was not going. Alexander gave the excuse of family emergency but cited that he would contact him after recovering from the difficult times he was facing.
Alexander looked at the assembled people and elves in front him and said, " Today is the day when we would take our first step towards conquering this world. I will go over the plan once more. Our operation will start when the meeting between their various pack leaders starts. The packs are scattered across the Britain but some packs are quite close to each other. I have powered the ward stones made by you. They should be enough to capture all the werewolves but if something happens, establish the secondary wards and release the chloroform, the werewolves have heightened sense of smell so they are extra vulnerable to bad smells but their bodies are highly resistive to foreign materials so don't try to individually put the werewolves to sleep, just keeping flooding the warded area with the chloroform till a single werewolf stands. Don't worry, they would not die from it but will surely remain asleep for few days. Since the werewolves have heightened senses, they will know when you approach their camp so elves will establish the ward stones. After the ward stones start their work, you will stick the portkeys to their bodies, the portkeys will activate in 30 seconds after they are put on. I and few other elves will be waiting here. After all the werewolves are captured, we will attack the next camp. All of you would be divided into 5 teams having 20 men and 20 elves. We will attack 5 camps simultaneously, starting with the camps which are near to each other. Another separate team of 100 elves will go to the meeting point of the leaders and lay the wards there. After all the packs are captured, we will jointly attack the leaders."
The ward stones had the concealment wards, anti- appariation wards, anti- portkey wards, containment wards, sleeping ward. The concealment wards will be used to hide their activity from the ministry as the ministry had sensors across the country in order to detect the usage of magic in non magical areas. The ministry ignores the reports of accidental magic and harmless spells but if combat spells are used for more than 5 minutes, a team of aurors were deployed to that location. The ministry's auror department was quite good during these days due to Grindlewald's reign of terror but Alexander knew that this awareness was only for a few years only. Riddle's rise was a proof of it. The sleeping ward was a harmless ward in the view of magical people but Alexander could already see it's massive usage in wars and conquering. This ward was used in magical hospitals world-wide to make the long term patients sleep at night as extended exposure to sleeping potions creates resistance in the bodies of the patients. Alexander planned to use this ward to put all the werewolves to sleep but if they resist then use of chloroform was allowed. This chloroform was the one used by mafias to kidnap people and Alexander had his men magically enhance it with the help of runes on their bottles.
As the night came, an elf came and told Alexander that the meeting has started. Alexander applied magic to his vocal cords and said, " Start the Operation!!!", making his voice echo throughout the mansion. Alexander waited for 10 minutes before the first werewolves started appearing in the lawn. Alexander pulled out another wardstone but this was 10 times stronger than the previous ones. Alexander then ordered the elves at the meeting point to put up the wards. The operations continued unhindered for the first two hours but then a report came about some werewolves escaping the containment wards.
The men were in hot pursuit while the elves were quickly gathering up the remaining werewolves. The range of anti- portkey and appariation wards were bigger than the containment wards so there was still time to capture them. Alexander shifted to the camp site and quickly found the werewolves, they were running towards the west of the camp site and they were 2 kilometres away from the boundary of the wards. Alexander didn't try to stop them as he planned to use this as a test for his men. His men were used to deal with normal humans but not the magical creatures. Alexander wanted to test how they will do in unexpected situations.
But Alexander was not going to let this werewolves escape. Alexander knew that portkeys and appariations cannot be used in magically charges areas as the magic in the atmosphere interferes with the magic of these two methods. At first Alexander planned to permit the surroundings with his magic but he decided against this. Alexander was sure that not all the werewolves of the pack were present here so if someone reports to the ministry then the aurors will investigate and get a sample of his magical signature, Alexander cannot allow this to happen. Alexander dropped another wardstone at the boundary of the wards.
Alexander also ordered 10 elves to station themselves at different locations in the auror office and also 2 elves at the letter point of the office. Their job was to stop the aurors to get the news of this mass disappearing of the werewolves and to also track the person who informed the aurors if it was possible. Alexander didn't rule out that one of the werewolves could possibly know someone in the auror department so he ordered the elves to stay alert. To increase the efficiency, there would be 6 teams of elves on rotation in the auror office for one week. If they get exposed, they would have to immediately evacuate and if they are not able to do so, then inform Alexander. Alexander was now powerful enough to fight the entire auror department alone inside the ministry. Alexander's magical power had now reached 60,000 MP. Alexander theorised that he would be able to increase his magical power to eighty thousand maximum in the coming week, after which he would have to perform the ritual.
Alexander saw his men engaging the werewolves in a fierce spell fight. After a few injuries, they managed to subdue the werewolves. Alexander shifted back to the mansion and ordered the rate of operation to be increased as his instincts were warning him that something bad could happen. In two hour, all the packs were captured but this led to several injuries on the part of his men. Alexander healed his men and shifted away to the meeting point.
Alexander found all the werewolf leaders and their betas unconscious on the ground and tied up with the elves standing with beaming smiles on their faces. Alexander peered into their minds and saw that the elves and his men were having silent competition between themselves. Alexander just smiled ruefully and ordered the elves to transport the leaders away.
After some thought, Alexander ordered the elves to remove the signs of their and werewolves presence from their target zones. Alexander shifted back to his mansion and saw all the werewolves lying on his lawn. Alexander ordered a different team of elves to transfer the werewolves in batches to different properties of his as Alexander didn't want to take any chances.
As Alexander was contemplating his next step, an elf shifted into his room and gave him a piece of unpleasant news. Alexander's brows tightened on hearing the news but he was not going to be hasty. Alexander was going to carefully plan his next step and also consult his ministers.
