Chapter 244 Manipulation

After giving all the Death Eaters new wifi passwords, Sean sat back down casually.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't nervous about acting in front of so many vicious dark wizards, but maybe because he got along with Grindelwald and Dumbledore more often, Sean's mood didn't have much disturbance.

He leaned on the chair, and Nadja, the bird-snake, slowly poked her head out of his arms and enjoyed his touch.

The uneasy Death Eaters around them were increasingly afraid to breathe. Regardless of their IQ, these figures at the top of the wizarding world always had a clear vision.

They also had some understanding of Voldemort's plan against Sean more than a year ago. Although they didn't understand what was special about the young wizard's body, they could at least understand the current situation.

Their master not only mastered a new body, but also inherited special talents including Parseltongue. Otherwise, magical creatures of the bird and snake level would not be so docile.

Some smart people are already thinking about the bloodline - has the master already integrated the bloodline? He did not lose the blood of Slytherin, and at the same time he integrated the special blood of that boy into one.

In fact, this is just a cover used by Sean to deepen his omnipotent image in the eyes of the Death Eaters.

Birds and snakes are not snakes at all. They have unique sounds, and Parseltongue cannot communicate...

Sean caressed Nadja and said casually: "Tell me what you have done this year."

The bodies of the Death Eaters became tense again. In order to rule the entire wizarding world in the future, they have been doing various things according to Voldemort's instructions. However, Voldemort disappeared for a year, and this organization that was not formed by faith had lost its vitality, and most of them were no longer interested in the things at hand.

Now that the master asks about this, many people have become nervous.

Barty Crouch Jr. stood up respectfully, and said with a slightly proud expression: "Master, my father is currently preparing for the election of the new minister, and he is very vocal."

Sean nodded, but he was a little confused.

The current British Minister of Magic is still Cornelius Fudge, and the first Millicent Barnold did a pretty good job during her tenure, so everyone has great expectations for the next minister.

Barty Crouch originally had a high voice, but for unknown reasons, he did not get the position of minister. Instead, he lost to Cornelius Fudge, who was not favored by many at the time.

The Minister of Magic does not have a clearly defined term of office, but it is usually more than five years. There is a regular general election in July every year. Fudge has only been in office for three years. As a rule, this election should be just a formality, but according to Judging from the current situation, Fudge may become one of the ministers with the shortest tenure since the establishment of the Ministry of Magic.

Barty Jr. continued: "After the incident in the Department of Mysteries last year, Fudge's ability to handle the problem has been questioned by many people, and some people privately said that Dumbledore also expressed disappointment in him - ha, Fudge is trying to To keep my position, I have been running around various pure-blood families and Hogwarts recently."

The Death Eaters all let out shrill, mocking laughter.

"Following your instructions, Master, I have been building momentum for my father. By then, pure-blood families such as the Malfoy family and the Black family will also support him. If nothing goes wrong, he will become the new minister of the Ministry of Magic."

Sean smiled and nodded his approval, and then asked in an intimate manner: "And you, my loyal friend."

Little Barty felt extremely excited about Sean's praise. He lowered his head and moved closer to Sean, and then found that the other party did not show any dissatisfaction.

Little Barty, who felt that everything he did was more valuable, grinned and replied: "By then, my father's original position as Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement will be vacant. There are two candidates for the Director, one is from the Auror Office Kingsley Shacklebolt, Director, and Amelia Bones, Director of the Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Magic - I will take one of the positions vacated by these two."

Sean nodded, and then looked like he was thinking - in fact, he didn't know what to say. He didn't know the Death Eaters' plans before, and if he said too much, he might be exposed.

No one dared to interrupt his thinking. After the living room was silent for a while, Sean smiled and said, "Buddy, I always trust your wisdom. Let me share your views on the whole thing."

"Yes!" Little Barty became more and more excited. In fact, Voldemort rarely asked his subordinates to make suggestions. He always believed that his far-sighted master had already thought of everything.

But the other party's current attitude is obviously that he trusts him more deeply!

Little Barty, who wanted to show off in front of his master, carefully considered his thoughts while being excited, and then said slowly: "Master, what you asked us to do has always been to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic. Most of the wizards who control the power in the Ministry of Magic are pure-bloods, and these people will eventually become our help after you reveal your abilities."

"So, I think we need to suppress those pro-Muggle forces. I will definitely take care of it with my father, and the important position of Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement needs more consideration."

"According to the information I got, Shacklebolt has always been in contact with Dumbledore, and Burns has always been neutral - Dumbledore is always the ultimate enemy you need to step over. I don't think his power should be allowed to The Ministry of Magic has too much say, and if Shacklebolt takes office, the next head of the Auror Office is likely to be James Potter, who is also Dumbledore's hardcore influence."

"That's a good idea, keep going, Barty." Sean nodded in approval.

Barty Jr. was encouraged to work harder. He cleared his throat and continued: "After I become the director of the Office for the Prohibition of Abuse of Magic, I can further arrange for our members to enter the Ministry of Magic. And according to your goals, I think the most The departments that need to be staffed include the Muggle-born Registration Committee, the Amnesia Command and the British Branch of the International Confederation of Wizards."

Screening bloodlines, handling conflicts with the Muggle world, and uniting other forces... These are the ways for Death Eaters to increase their power and penetrate the grassroots. Sean narrowed his eyes slightly and gave Barty Jr. an approving look.

As expected of a wizard who has passed all 12 gates, he is indeed the most intellectually responsible among the Death Eaters.

"Very good," Sean praised, "Barty, you have become more mature during this time."

"That's because of your wisdom, Master." Little Barty said respectfully.

"You can get started first, but the main point now is to let your father become the minister. I will give you a more detailed plan for the subsequent arrangements." Sean gave a careless look.

"At your will, Master."

After Barty Jr., the Malfoy family and the Lestrange family also revealed what they had been doing recently, most of which were infiltrating the Ministry of Magic and investigating information on pro-Muggle wizards.

Then, Regulus stood up and said: "Master, the mission you gave me has been terminated - France has cut off a lot of contact with me because of your previous hiding."

Bella and Barty Jr. suddenly shouted: "Stupid and despicable French guy!"

Sean did not express anger or surprise. The other party's words confirmed his previous guess that the French Wizards' Rights Protection Association was connected to Death Eaters.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Regulus continued: "With all due respect, Master, they have become more and more arrogant recently. The Aiken family who was originally responsible for contacting me has an ambiguous attitude. The last time they contacted me was to question me. Is the person who kidnapped his son a member of ours? At the same time, he was also inquiring about your whereabouts."

Sean sneered disdainfully: "This is always the case...but they are a little too slow. I obviously gave them some small warnings..."

Sure enough, it was Voldemort who took action. It seemed that there was something wrong with the cooperation between him and the other president... Regulus thought to himself.

Bella stood up dissatisfied: "Master, do you want me to go to France and teach them a real lesson! You, you are too kind..."

"Calm down, Bella," Sean waved his hand casually, "That is indeed an important thing, but I have more important things to do now..."

"Master?" The Death Eaters all looked over in confusion.

The corner of Sean's mouth curled up: "It's a very important thing. You will finally understand my intention."

"Yes, Master." All the Death Eaters lowered their heads, and no one asked again.

Sean thought for a while and then ordered: "Regulus, Lucius, leave the affairs in France to you two for the time being. Use your family's right to speak to obtain information."

"Yes," the two nodded in agreement, and Lucius asked slightly uneasily, "Master, I don't know, what specific information do we need to investigate? The main purpose of that organization is to rule the French wizarding world and liberate pure-blood wizards. , is there any change in this?"

"They are hiding more secrets... There is no need to reveal the news that I have returned. You can use my disappearance as a cover and then have deeper communication with them."

They ask us to be spies... Regulus and Lucius agreed after a slight hesitation.

"Okay, that's it for today," Sean, who was worried about the risk of being exposed if he talked too much, issued an eviction order, "Go back, my friends, the arrival of a new era requires more efforts from you, and when we get there Then you will become the masters of this world."

"We're all looking forward to it."

The Death Eaters put one hand on their chests to show respect, and then disappeared into the ink of the night one by one. In the end, only the Malfoy family, Bella and Barty Jr. remained.

"Do you know why I kept you here?" Sean asked casually.

Little Barty's eyes were cold, and his tone became cruel: "Master, there are despicable traitors among those people!"

"As sharp as ever, Buddy," Sean changed his sitting posture and said in a nonchalant tone, "I can't guarantee that everyone will be loyal to me. Only you, I am willing to trust without reservation."

He looked at Barty and Bella, ignoring the pale Malfoys next to them.

The two took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement on their faces: "I will always be your most loyal servant."

Upon seeing this, the Malfoy couple immediately knelt down to express their loyalty.

Sean smiled noncommittally, and he helped little Barty and Bella up, leaving the Malfoys to kneel.

Lucius' face was pale and his lips trembled slightly. He felt bitter in his heart, knowing that the terrifying wizard in front of him already understood his thoughts.

Those unwillingness to contribute may also be seen by the Dark Lord, who is going to beat us as a couple...

But he was still a little lucky in his heart. He and Narcissa were left here, which meant that they still had value in the heart of the Dark Lord. If he was loyal, then the previous things could probably be written off.

But if he has thoughts that he shouldn't have again, he may end up with the same ending as Dolohov...

Thinking of this, he knelt down even more piously.

Sean didn't pay attention to the behavior of the couple. He wanted to win over the most fanatical believers first and let them find out the traitors among the Death Eaters.

In other words, he is not even sure whether there are traitors among the Death Eaters, but such behavior can effectively ensure that there are not too many small groups with different ideas in this organization.

Wouldn't it be bad luck if these people discovered their flaws after discussing in private?

Moreover, if there was a traitor among the Death Eaters, he could find it out in advance. If it were other forces such as the French Wizards Rights Protection Association, he could deal with it in advance. If it was Grindelwald or Dumbledore, then he could save the traitor's life.

Thinking like this, Sean showed a casual look: "I think you must be wondering why the great Dark Lord didn't find those traitors himself?"

Bella and Barty looked at each other and finally nodded.

Sean spread his hands: "As you can see, I changed into a new body. This body is too weak... but its potential is even better. Ha - I have to start all over again."

The two understood the meaning of Sean's words: He had lost some of his original abilities due to changing bodies, such as Legilimency. But there was a deeper meaning in the master's words.

When he realizes the potential of this body, the Dark Lord will become even more powerful!

The two of them almost trembled with excitement at the thought of this.

Sean patted the two of them on the shoulders with satisfaction: "The task of finding the traitor is entrusted to you. Bella and Barty, will you let me down?"

Their eyes were shining almost feverishly, and they held their heads high: "Master, we have decided to give you a satisfactory answer."

"Very good, very good," Sean nodded, and then pretended to have just seen the Malfoy couple, "Hey, look, isn't this my friend, the famous Malfoy family?"

"Master, Master, you are joking. The reputation of the Malfoy family is not worth mentioning in front of you." Lucius twitched the corner of his mouth with difficulty.

"Oh, Lucius, you are still as good as ever when it comes to flattering," Sean said coldly.

"Master, master..." Lucius's forehead was already covered with sweat.

Sean patted his face and said warmly: "I'll give you a chance to make up for it, Lucius."

"Thank you for your kindness! Just ask!"

"You have a nice son, right?"

The Malfoys froze on the spot, then moved forward on trembling knees.

"Master, master, Draco is just a child!" Lucius pleaded.
