Dumbledore's Little Trouble; Shock Brought By Muggle Technology!

When Lucas entered Malfoy Manor, Harry walked towards the prefect's bathroom on the fifth floor with the golden egg under his arm.

Although he would have liked to decipher the golden egg alone in order to prove his ability, he had no choice but to give up after many attempts.

Since someone else has already told him the correct way to do it, why not give it a try?

With such an idea, he went to the prefect's bathroom on the fifth floor.

"Oh~ Harry!"

Just when Harry was about to say the password, Ludo Bagman's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Hello, Mr. Bagman."

Harry's eyes were full of doubts, he couldn't figure out why Bagman came to school during the holidays even though there is nothing related to the Triwizard Tournament right now.

Without waiting for him to express the doubts in his heart, Bagman first walked to the corner of the corridor with his arms around his shoulders.

After carefully confirming that there was no one around, he approached Harry and whispered.

"Harry, your performance against that Ukrainian Ironbelly was really wonderful, I have a lot of admiration for you."

He glanced at the golden egg in Harry's hand again: "Do you have any clues about the second task?"

"Probably, I believe I should have it solved in a few days."

Harry faltered and said something, but anyone with experience could tell right away that he was lying.

"Listen Harry, as I said just now, I appreciate you very much, so if you make some small requests that are not excessive, I can consider helping you."

Bagman glanced at the golden egg again. Obviously, he was reminding him that he could help him cheat.

"Cedric and Lucas, have you looked for them too?"

"Uh...I admire you more, so..."

Hearing the answer, Harry knew that Bagman was trying to help him cheat.

"Sorry, but I think the clues should be solved by us alone, right?"

"Yes, that's right. If you think so, you can do whatever you want. I'm going to the Headmaster's office to discuss the next task."

Bagman's expression was a bit displeased, but he deliberately revealed some information before leaving, mentioning that he was going to discuss the content of the next task.

But Harry let him down again and didn't say anything.

When Bagman completely left the fifth floor, Harry arrived at the door of the prefect's bathroom with the golden egg in his arms.

"Fresh pine!"

Click~

The bathroom door opened a crack.

Seeing no one around, Harry got in immediately.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the Hogwarts Headmaster's office was a little tense.

Professor Snape glared at the fake Moody beside him, while Moody also glared back at him.

"Headmaster, I don't understand why Professor Moody has the right to search my office."

"Well, it's an Auror's prerogative, Severus Snape."

Seeing Moody's vicious and smug expression, Snape sneered, "But you're just an ex-Auror, Moody."

Dumbledore sat in his chair with a headache, while Karkaroff and Madame Maxime on both sides were watching the show with relish.

Just then, Ludo Bagman walked in.

"There are so many people already!"

"Now that Ludo is here, let's start discussing the people for the second task."

"Severus, Alastor, you go back first!"

The two did not refuse, and walked out of the office after glaring at each other.

Bagman walked towards the sofa and sat down with a smile, and seeing that there was still one person missing, he asked, "Why didn't old Barty come?"

"Mr. Crouch is ill and is recuperating at home at the moment, and his assistant will help us bring the news to him later."

After Dumbledore answered the question, he planned to move on to the next topic.

But he hadn't had time to speak before Bagman pulled out today's Daily Prophet

"Dumbledore, why didn't you tell us that Hagrid is a half-giant?"

Looking at the Rita Skeeter coverage in the paper, Dumbledore didn't answer for a moment.

…

Lucius Malfoy put aside the newspaper in his hand, and warmly invited the boy in front of him to sit down.

"Uncle Lucius, what makes you so happy?"

"The identity of that stupid half-giant has finally been exposed, and now Dumbledore is going to be in trouble."

Lucas took the newspaper from the other party.

Seeing the content about Hagrid's identity as a half-giant and the questioning of Dumbledore, he smiled knowingly.

There seems to be a passage in the original book where Hagrid revealed himself to Madame Maxime and was coincidentally overheard by Rita Skeeter in her Animagus form.

Something that can cause Dumbledore a little trouble and put him in a bad mood.

Lucas was more than happy to see it happen.

"I heard Draco say that you wanted to talk with me, what do you want? Could it be that you have a new business?"

Mr. Malfoy asked the house elf to prepare tea, and then asked Lucas about his purpose for coming today.

Lucas held the tea and said, "No, I'm here today to talk to you about Riddle's diary."

Mr. Malfoy, who was sweetening his coffee, paused.

"What diary? I don't have the habit of keeping a diary."

"It's the diary you gave to the Weasley family two years ago, and it was also the diary that fell into the hands of Dumbledore later, the diary that was entrusted to you for safekeeping by you-know-who."

Bang~!

Lucius Malfoy put the coffee on the table and his face became very serious.

"Draco, you go out first."

Mr. Malfoy didn't want his son involved in this conversation.

But what surprised him was that Draco, who was very obedient in the past, didn't turn around and leave.

"Draco?"

"Uncle Lucius, Draco knows everything, even more than you."

Lucas had just finished speaking when a powerful magic pressure hit him.

Draco, who was standing by the side, suddenly felt short of breath.

But Lucas, who was in the center of the magic pressure, sipped his tea leisurely.

At the same time, the quasi-legendary pressure enveloped Lucius Malfoy, completely overwhelming his own magic.

The fight between the two came to an end immediately, and Lucius Malfoy who was just at the elite Auror level was completely defeated.

It took him a long time to recover from the terrifying pressure.

"You were the one who released that pressure in Grindelwald Manor that day?"

Lucas nodded: "Uncle Lucius, can we have an honest talk now?"

Lucius Malfoy is an extremely shrewd man, the perfect example of a Slytherin.

So feeling the powerful strength of Lucas, he suppressed the fear in his heart and showed a sincere smile.

"Of course, I don't know what you want to talk about?"

"What do you know about the diary?"

"It's a very powerful piece of black magic that seems to be important to the dark lord, that's all I know."

Lucius Malfoy wasn't actually lying, he really only knew this much.

Even when Voldemort handed over the diary to him for safekeeping, he didn't reveal the truth of the diary.

Lucas nodded knowingly and took out the "Salazar's Research Notes" again, and at the same time, he also took out the book "Secrets of the Darkest Arts".

In order to increase the reliability of the information, Lucas specifically asked Dumbledore to borrow the book.

"Horcruxes?" exclaimed Mr. Malfoy.

He didn't expect the diary he kept to be something so important.

Immediately afterwards his face turned pale, there was even a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Lucas handed a silk handkerchief to him after noticing.

"It seems that you have also thought of it. You threw that man's horcrux away, and this horcrux was destroyed. If he were to know..."

He didn't need to hear it, as one of Voldemort's most trusted men, Lucius Malfoy knew his character quite well.

Naturally, he also understands the punishment for such an act equivalent to betrayal.

It became very quiet in the study, only the logs in the small fireplace crackling with flames could be heard.

"Uncle Lucius, splitting his soul many times to make Horcruxes has turned the once talented, knowledgeable and shrewd Voldemort into an old madman."

"At the moment, in his mind, there is only killing, killing Harry Potter, killing Dumbledore, killing all those who betrayed and disobeyed him."

"If he dominates the wizarding world, we can already imagine the crazy things this lunatic will do."

Malfoy murmured: "He hates Muggles, advocates the theory of blood supremacy, and wants to unify the wizarding world under his leadership. He will definitely lead everyone to attack the Muggles and treat them like slaves or cattle."

"That's right, the magic world will not be far from being destroyed by then. If you think about it carefully, if he returns, the Malfoy family will only be destroyed in the end."

Lucius Malfoy looked at the boy opposite: "Why do you think that?"

"Isn't it obvious? If you let you-know-who know that you lost his diary, I think that with his temperamental character, you, your wife, and Draco will all die at his hands or because of his orders."

Lucas looked up at Mr. Malfoy who was sitting opposite him, whose expression was depressed, and there was still a deep fear in his eyes.

It seems that he also believed his words. Malfoy's mind was probably full of memories about Voldemort killing people in a rage at the moment.

"If he is still nostalgic for the old days, and he is lenient to the Malfoy family, the road to unify the magic world will not be easy either."

"Although Dumbledore is in his twilight years, his strength should not be underestimated."

"And then I, as the leader of the Saints, I will not allow that maniac to rise to power."

"The last is my father. Although he is old, he is not too old that he can't fight."

"With them we have two people at the peak of quasi-legendary level and three quasi-legendary level wizards at this moment."

"Excuse me, but among the Death Eaters, besides Voldemort, who else can fight against the five of us?"

Lucius Malfoy was silent, probably thinking about what Lucas just said in his head.

Lucas was not in a hurry, if he easily persuaded the head of the Malfoy family, he would still wonder if Lucius was trying to trick him.

As for Malfoy informing what he said backhandedly to Voldemort?

Lucas wasn't worried. If he couldn't convince him to join himself today, then he would just clean his memory of today.

It took Malfoy a while before he let out a long breath: "Please continue."

Lucas put the teacup on the table and continued.

"Assuming again, that Voldemort and the Death Eaters are lucky enough to win the final victory and unify the magic world."

"Then he leads the wizards who have already fought a war to attack Muggles, it will only lead to a dead end."

"And even if the Malfoy family has survived the previous difficulties, you will only end up destroyed when you face the Muggles."

Malfoy shook his head: "Impossible, I admit that Muggle guns are very powerful, and there is something called a tank, which is indeed very lethal."

"But we have the Muggle Repelling Charms, so Muggles can't find us, so naturally they can't do us any harm."

"Uncle Lucius, how long has it been since you paid attention to Muggles?"

Hearing this question, Malfoy was taken aback.

Lucas pulled out his wand and waved it twice in the air.

Various types of missiles and even nuclear bomb explosion scenes immediately appeared in the thick white mist.

"Once the war starts, the Muggles don't need to determine our exact location at all, they only need to know the approximate direction, and these missiles will drop from the sky"

"Even if these missiles are not the most powerful, it is easy to destroy Hogwarts and the surrounding Hogsmeade village in an instant."

Looking at the scene of various types of missiles exploding in the white mist, Lucius Malfoy stood up from the sofa in surprise.

Draco also couldn't believe it.

"How can this be."

Just when the two were surprised by Muggle technology, the flame of the fireplace in the study suddenly turned green.

Then a figure appeared from the flames.
