Chapter 576 "Persuade" To Quit
"Sir, did you send that note to me just now?"
Steward Martin was standing in front of the stele in Beauxbaton's garden at this time. He looked at the mysterious wizard who was almost out of shadow, and his right hand had already touched his wand, obviously quite cautious.
Although he thought that no one would choose to offend members of the Bulova family, but everything was not absolute, there would always be some unscrupulous guys in this world, he had to be careful.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't doubt whether it was Fanny who was in charge of the matter that led him here. But after thinking about it, he realized that this should not be the case. After all, if Fanny wanted to trouble him, it would be too easy. He didn't even need to see him, and he would just report to the Patriarch and the matter would be over.
So he guessed that what was said in the previous note might be true.
In fact, Maca wrote two sentences on that piece of paper: First, he claimed to be a wizard belonging to a certain family, and wanted to cooperate with Martin, who was in charge of the Blois family, to jointly compete with other forces for supremacy. The first is to fight; and the second is that he needs to meet with this steward Martin alone, so that he can discuss the plan with him with confidence.
At a time when many forces are hurrying to seek cooperation with each other, although Maca's intention is simple, it seems particularly appropriate.
"Good evening, Mr. Steward."
With a wrong step, Maca casually walked out from the shadow of the stele, and even greeted him lightly.
"you--"
When he just appeared, Martin was taken aback. This Martin is not blind, so he naturally noticed Maca who was with Fanny all the time. As soon as the two met, Martin immediately took a step back, his expression seemed quite shaken.
"How could it be you?" He trembled, "You...why did you call me here?"
"Didn't I write you a note?" Maca shrugged,
"Didn't you see it? Or, did you see it, but didn't believe it?"
"This... yes, I read it..."
Under Maka's calm tone, Martin hesitated unconsciously. He thought to himself, could it be that McLean from Hogwarts really wanted to cooperate with him? But isn't there already a steward at his side? How could he still need Martin?
Hmm...Maybe this McLean doesn't get along well with Steward Fanny? That's right, although Fanny is quick and quick in her work, she is always too rigid, and I'm afraid she won't be able to do some messy work. But in this incident, people who don't fish in troubled waters will not get any benefits. Regarding this point, you can know it just by looking at people who died so quickly.
However, this kind of thing he Martin is good at!
"Mr. McLean?" Steward Martin pondered for a moment, and then he deliberately tried to ask, "You seem to be a bit far away when you ask me to cooperate? Isn't Steward Fanny right here with you?"
Maca heard this, but shook her head with a smile.
"Of course Fanny will help me...Of course, from her standpoint and perspective," he said calmly, "But I think you can also help me with some very necessary things."
"me?"
Martin subconsciously asked, but Maca nodded affirmatively.
"Yes, it's up to you."
"Then... what can I do for you?" Martin asked suspiciously, "And what good is there for me?"
"Of course there are benefits, but we can talk about that later. As for now... I can tell you what you can do—" Maca said, and suddenly glanced at him, "First you can do Yes, just let me take a look at your memory."
When Maca said these words, Steward Martin's heart suddenly jumped, and then he felt that various memory fragments were going back in turn uncontrollably. This feeling seemed like years to him, but it was only a moment in reality.
When he came back to his senses again, clutching his spinning head and shaking for a while, he found that Maka was still looking at him with a smile on his face, and he didn't even move his position.
"You don't even know who the person behind you is, and you dare to get involved in this inheritance turmoil casually? Should I say that you are brave enough...or should I say that you are influenced by interests?" Lost your mind?"
Maca checked the memories he had peeped with Legilimency in turn, and then shook his head with a strange expression. Obviously, he has said such words, and there must be nothing to gain.
"You...what do you want to do?" Martin, who had just stabilized from his chaotic consciousness, suddenly frowned and asked.
"I just want to see who else is trying to make trouble," Maca spread his hands, "It's a pity that my efforts were wasted because of your lack of consideration. But it's okay, now we have one more thing to do 'cooperating."
"What, what?" Martin was taken aback again, obviously not understanding what Maca was trying to figure out.
"It's nothing, it's an easy task for you." Maca reached out and gestured towards the door, "Now, you should leave here. In that case, you may still be able to continue your job as a steward with a different surname." Go on, or... I think you understand?"
For this steward Martin, Maca is not polite at all. Because, right now, Beauxbaton is already messed up enough, he doesn't want any more shit-stirring sticks to come in, and he can count as one less.
"This...Okay, okay, I see..." Martin's complexion changed several times in a row, and he hesitated when he said this, obviously he was reluctant to part with the huge cake in front of everyone, and his sexual greed was evident.
But he seemed to be more or less sensible. With Fanny, who was in charge of the same family, not only his chances would become very small, but his chances of being unlucky would be doubled several times. Now that Maca looked so confident again, he obviously had very little choice.
"It's good to know."
Maca nodded calmly, and then stopped talking nonsense, but reached out and pointed to the door again, meaning to tell Martin to hurry up.
Seeing this situation, Martin couldn't help but took another step back. But his footsteps were rather sluggish, as if the bottomless greed in his heart was constantly instigating him, making him stop immediately.
Maca saw that his hands were still resting on the edge of his trouser pockets, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
"Are you planning to fight me here?" He pointed out straightforwardly, "I advise you to avoid such a meaningless period, lest you can't even leave here safely today."
Under Maca's warning, Martin's hand in charge immediately trembled, and then moved his hand away stiffly. Of course it was impossible for him to fight Maca, after all, even if he knew nothing about Maca's deeds, it was obviously not a suitable place for a fight right now.
Not to mention anything else, those wizards not far away who are still busy with themselves are a natural warning. In this situation where many forces gather, no one dares to wave their magic wand easily except for ruthless hands in the dark.
"If I leave now, won't you tell Steward Fanny about my appearance in Beauxbatons?" Martin couldn't help asking.
"If you don't show up again in the end, I don't think I will remember you anymore," Maca waved his hand and said, "Are you leaving? Remember that when you go back, first let the question of who tricked you come here Figure it out. Believe me, this isn't a safe place for anyone right now."
Martin nodded at his words, then turned around reluctantly, and walked resignedly towards Beauxbaton's main entrance.
Being able to "persuade" people away with one mouth is at least much easier than doing it with magic power. If he didn't want to find out which discordant factor was in Blois Castle by the way, he wouldn't even use that Legilimency chanting spell.
After confirming that Steward Martin had indeed left, Maca strolled back to the entrance of the auditorium. He could see it from a distance, and Fanny, who was sitting on the seat, also looked towards this side, and he nodded as a gesture.
Although the matter of Martin's management had been handed over to Fanny, it would definitely be resolved faster than him. But in that case, most of the people behind Martin would become alert. But now, the other party will definitely know through Martin that Maca may be the only one who knows about his existence.
In the eyes of the other party, whether Fanny knew it was a very important matter. If Patriarch Blois found out because of this incident that there was a member of the family with ulterior motives, it would be much more troublesome for the other party to act in the future.
And now, no one except Maca knows of his existence, which is definitely a blessing in misfortune for him.
Maca believed that the unknown member of the Bulova family might come to him soon. And when the time comes, he can sell Willy's father a favor again.
After telling Fanny about the fact that she had successfully driven away the steward with a foreign surname, Maca strolled back to the Beauxbaton auditorium full of luxury. It won't be long before the ball will officially start, and he feels that at the end of this ball, there will probably be some things in this life.
Either things will become clearer, or things will get even more chaotic. No matter which possibility it is, it has not yet come to a time worth intervening for him. Like many forces, he is also waiting for an opportunity.
Disputes between forces are not as straightforward as his fight with Voldemort. Many times, they will affect the whole body, and the impact will involve many people and things. The more at this time, the more important the importance of personal strength will continue to decrease, and it often only works under specific circumstances.
Seizing the opportunity is what he needs to do now.
