Everyone probably didn't expect it.
Someone had the audacity to cast the Dark Mark right in front of the people from the Ministry of Magic.
Seeing Amos pointing his wand at him, Lucas' expression was full of disdain.
He didn't stop there.
Instead, he held his wand high and cast more than a dozen Dark Marks in a row.
The entire night sky was dyed green.
"Since you are so afraid of this mark, then I will desensitize you."
"Sorry, I forgot that you don't seem to know what desensitization is."
The mocking expression on Lucas' face made Amos very angry.
The reveling Death Eaters were also a little dumbfounded.
Seeing the important symbol that represented Voldemort and his Death Eaters being used like fireworks and constantly exploding in the sky.
Even the Death Eaters thought the Dark Mark was a little tacky.
The happiest is probably Barty Crouch Jr.
Looking at the dozen or so Dark Marks in the sky, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then he took it for granted that these were his companions' responses to him.
Seeing that there are still so many people loyal to the Dark Lord. As the only fan out of prison, he felt extremely excited in his heart.
He couldn't wait to let his master see such a scene.
And Voldemort, who was far away in Little Hangleton, also received the news.
He had the same idea as Crouch Jr.
Seeing his servants make a big fuss at the World Cup, and there are still so many people loyal to him, he suddenly had great confidence in the plan for his resurrection.
What a wonderful misunderstanding.
…
In the woods, Harry stared at the dozen or so Dark Marks in the sky and was speechless for a long time.
"Harry, look at what I said, this guy Grindelwald is indeed a dark wizard, he actually knows such evil magic as the Dark Mark."
As soon as Ron finished speaking, Ginny in front of him turned around and gave him a hard look.
Ron curled his lips in disdain, and then looked at his friend.
"Harry, do you think I'm right?"
"Huh? But I think it's pretty cool!"
Hearing Harry's comment, Ron rubbed his ears, thinking he had heard it wrong.
"Hey Harry, what's wrong with you? Could it be that Grindelwald put an evil curse on you too?"
Harry chuckled and signaled his friend not to talk nonsense.
"I was either at my aunt's or with you the whole summer. Wouldn't you be the first to know if I've been cursed?"
The two messed around a bit and then looked at the crowd in front of them with the mentality of watching a play.
Harry wasn't the only one who thought Lucas was cool at the moment.
There are many others who have the same idea as him, like the Weasley twins.
If it wasn't for their father among those people, they might have jumped out to cheer for their boss.
As for the Slytherin snakes.
At this moment, they looked at the people of the Ministry of Magic with even more pride.
As if to tell those people that in front of them is the Chief of Slytherin's House, their leader.
Lucas retracted his raised wand and looked at the crowd.
"Now I've cast a dozen Dark Marks, and then? Are you going to keep trembling in fear as if you have seen Voldermort or what?"
Hearing the word "Voldemort", the adult wizards present trembled.
It made Lucas look down on these guys even more in his heart.
"Harry!"
"What?"
Harry, who was suddenly named, looked bewildered.
He was hiding by the side to watch a play, but he didn't expect that he would be involved in this play.
Lucas smiled and asked, "Harry, are you afraid of Voldemort?"
"Not afraid!" Harry answered simply.
"Very well, do you dare to call Voldemort by his name?"
"Voldemort! Why not?"
Hearing Harry's answer, Lucas laughed out loud.
"A group of adults is not as courageous as two underage wizards."
"In the face of the Death Eaters who are making trouble outside, as employees of the Ministry of Magic, you aren't there maintaining order."
"Instead you're more worried about who cast the stupid mark here? Just how scared are you of Voldemort?"
"So much so that the mere mark makes you feel intimidated?"
Facing Lucas' questioning, although the people in the Ministry of Magic were angry, they were more ashamed.
Thinking carefully, they indeed lack some courage.
Lucas looked again at Amos Diggory.
"Sir, do you still want to waste time here?"
"Well…...."
Ignoring his embarrassed expression, Lucas walked up to Barty Crouch.
"Director Crouch, I believe that after today's incident, you should not want to leave behind a house-elf who violated her master's orders, right?"
Crouch nodded, Winky is indeed not fit to stay in his family anymore. Otherwise, others will question his image of being unselfish and strict.
If anyone is interested, they might keep investigating. Maybe they'll find out about Barty Crouch Jr.
However, the look in the eyes of the boy in front of him made him very uncomfortable.
Just like, it was as if those blue eyes had seen through everything he tried to hide.
"Does Mr. Grindelwald have any good advice?"
"It's not a suggestion, it's just that my estate is too big, and only one house-elf doesn't seem to be enough."
"So I hope that Mr. Crouch can hand over Winky to me. I believe that the Crouch family will not lack this little elf."
Crouch did not immediately respond.
He weighed the pros and cons first.
There is a contract, so even if the elf transfers, it cannot reveal anything about the previous owner.
This is more cost-effective than giving a piece of clothing and releasing the house elf.
And, the boy in front of him gave him a very strange feeling.
Crouch worried that he really knew something.
Now that Lucas has put forward conditions, it's better to follow his suggestion and treat it as making friends.
"Well, I agree with Mr Grindelwald."
After Crouch finished speaking, he looked at Winky next to him.
"Winky, starting today, you will serve Mr. Grindelwald, and from now on your master will only be Mr. Grindelwald."
Crouch was also straightforward, and after finishing speaking, he raised his wand and directly transferred the house elf to Lucas.
"Shana!"
Pop~!
The elf of Grindelwald Manor appeared in front of everyone.
"Little master, Shana listens to your orders."
"Take Winky back, and from today on, she will work together with you."
Shana looked at Winky next to her with a smile on her face.
Followed with another ~pop~ sound, the two elves disappeared from the spot.
Getting this done, Lucas looked over to Barty Crouch again.
"Then, as one of the sponsors of this World Cup, can I ask the Ministry of Magic to quell the disturbance in front of me as soon as possible?"
"I think if the Ministry of Magic handles it in a timely manner, people will stay longer after returning to the camp, so I can make some more money."
Yep, that's another reason why Lucas was pissed.
Although the stalls in the camp do not make a lot of money, ants are also meat for the greedy Lucas.
The riot directly affected his money making.
As the leader of the Saints Group, it's fine if he doesn't get the protection he deserves.
But now he can't even do business, how can this not make Lucas angry?
Maybe it's because he helped him out of a big problem, Crouch did not refuse his request.
Seeing the people from the Ministry of Magic leaving in despair, the Slytherins all cheered.
The eyes of those people just now were not friendly at all and many Ministry of Magic staff looked at them suspiciously.
In the crowd, Astoria looked at the blond boy under the moonlight with a trace of obsession in her eyes.
"Sister, the Lord Chief is really amazing."
"Yes, sure he is quite amazing…" Daphne agreed helplessly with her monotone voice, but inside her mind her thoughts were going wild.
'Oh woe is me, what shall I do now? If things keep going like this my poor little sister will be eaten by that libidinous beast and not even her bones will be left. Will I really have to sacrifice this pure body of mine, allowing that lustful man to taint it just so I can save the innocent Astoria from his clutches? Well, if that is what it takes.'
If someone were reading her thoughts they would be absolutely baffled because they didn't fit her expressionless face at all…
Hermione came to Lucas with the other two girls.
"Honey, will this get you into trouble?"
Seeing her worried eyes, Lucas said with a smile: "For you, offending the whole Ministry of Magic would be worth it."
Hermione hit her unscrupulous boyfriend in the shoulder, but her heart was relieved.
Since he said this, it means there is no trouble, or very little trouble.
In fact, there is another reason why Lucas decided to make a move.
That is to try to ensure that Barty Crouch Jr. will act in accordance with the original plot and enter Hogwarts disguised as Mad-Eye Moody.
In this way, it will be easier for him to deal with it.
"Okay, everyone, if you've had enough rest, get ready to return to the camp. I believe that when we go back, the people from the Ministry of Magic will have calmed down everything.
Everyone got up one after another, still arranging according to the original formation.
Just when everyone was about to leave, there was another apparition sound.
Seeing the figure with a familiar beard appear suddenly, Lucas' expression darkened.
"Looks like I missed a good show."
Pius Thicknesse, this guy looked at the Dark Marks in the sky as soon as he came.
"Mr. Grindelwald, can you explain to me how these Dark Marks in the sky came to be?"
His voice just fell when a few more figures apparated around him.
These new figures are Ministry Aurors.
They drew their wands as soon as they emerged, looking at Lucas with wary eyes.
