Chapter 986 The Frightened Prime Minister Huck
Even so, it took Huck a while to truly accept this fact. Although wizards and magic still seemed incredible to him, now that the evidence was in front of him, he couldn't help but not believe it.
After barely calming down the fluctuating emotions in his heart, Huck suddenly realized his current predicament.
This is not just because he is accompanied by a formidable wizard, but more importantly, he, the British Prime Minister, is standing unabashedly on the Arc de Triomphe, and below are hundreds of tourists - Huck has already faintly disappeared. I think about what will be on the front pages of major newspapers tomorrow.
But what made him feel a little strange was that they had been standing here for a long time, but the tourists below didn't seem to notice their presence. There were obviously many people standing under the Arc de Triomphe to take pictures, but they didn't notice anything unusual. , as if they didn't exist at all.
"What is going on? Can they not see us?" Huck couldn't help but asked.
"You can understand that this is one of the effects of magic!" Ivan explained with a smile.
The moment he teleported here, he had silently released the Confusion Curse and built a magic barrier in front of him that could distort the light to avoid being caught by the camera. Naturally, it was impossible for Muggles to discover them. exist.
Huck glanced at the crowd of people playing below, and then thought about how easily Ivan had brought him out of the Prime Minister's Office just now, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of fear and apprehension in his heart.
Ivan was the first wizard he knew, but the magical ability displayed by him was beyond his imagination.
Huck even suspected that if the other party was determined to kill him, the supreme ruler of England, he would not be able to survive even if he hid in a nuclear bunker.
This feeling of life and death being in the hands of others is undoubtedly uncomfortable, especially for a high-ranking prime minister of a country.
It took him decades and hard work to reach this highest position. He thought he would have great power and great glory, but now he learned that there were wizards in this world who could easily cause harm to his personal safety. threaten.
Huck was extremely frightened in his heart, but on the surface he still maintained his demeanor as much as possible, maintaining the most basic face of the Prime Minister, and was unwilling to show his timidity in front of Ivan...
And he could also guess that Ivan didn't have any ill intentions towards him, otherwise there would be no need to talk so much nonsense to him here.
"Mr. Hals...? You said before that you came here to answer my questions?" Haqqiang cheered up and asked in a slightly trembling tone, and then remembered that Ivan mentioned when he introduced himself He was a British wizard, so he added again. "Apart from England, do wizards also exist in other countries?"
"Of course, wizards are a group all over the world!" Ivan explained softly.
"Then why have I never discovered the existence of wizards before?" Huck asked eagerly. This was the most confusing part for him. If there were a lot of wizards, it would be impossible to hide them.
"Because most wizards stay peacefully in the magic world..." Ivan had no intention of hiding anything. Under Huck's confused gaze, he briefly explained the basic situation of the magic world - this is the Prime Minister of England. Something you have a right to know.
Hearing that there was another magical world beneath the normal world he lived in, which even contained magical creatures such as dragons and unicorns, Huck was shocked and at the same time felt a sense of yearning.
However, this emotion soon disappeared as Ivan introduced various policies in the magic world.
After learning that in order to hide the existence of the magical world, wizards usually use the Forgetting Curse to delete the memories of Muggles who accidentally witnessed magic, Huck was shocked and angry.
Who gave these wizards the right to tamper with and delete people's memories at will...
If possible, Huck would never mind scolding him so loudly, but considering the magical power displayed by the other party, he still held back the words that came to his mouth very carefully.
The only thing that relieved him was that, according to Ivan, these wizards who mastered extraordinary magic were effectively controlled. They could not act recklessly in this world, but were restricted by various laws and regulations.
Although these so-called laws were also compiled by wizards, Huck knew very well how important this order was. No matter how powerful a person was, as long as he was willing to abide by the rules, politicians like himself would have room to play.
"Since every British Prime Minister has the right to know about the existence of the magical world, why do I only know about it now?" Huck said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
This was a deliberate test on his part. Although this move might bring him some danger, he still wanted to confirm how much weight he, the Muggle Prime Minister, could carry.
Of course, Huck's thoughts cannot be hidden from Ivan's investigation.
In such small matters, Ivan never minds being kind, so that the apparently calm but actually flustered Prime Minister can feel at ease. Therefore, he did not pay attention to Huck's slightly offensive question, but spoke calmly. explained.
"Some troublesome things have happened in the magic world recently, so I have to postpone contact with you."
"But normally Buckingham Palace and your predecessor should also tell you these things." Ivan added, he would not blame this matter as his own negligence, but directly put the blame on it. On those Muggle leaders who knew.
As expected, Huck's face immediately showed a look of annoyance, blaming his gaffe today on those irresponsible former prime ministers, even though he used some shady tricks during the election to hurt each other. Although the other party is kind to each other, he should never hide such an important thing from him.
"By the way, you just said that your wizards have encountered some trouble recently?" Huck asked curiously.
For some reason, when talking about this, Huck couldn't help but feel a little happy, because he discovered that the wizard who mastered magic also had things that he couldn't handle, which greatly reduced the fear in his heart.
"Sorry, Mr. Prime Minister, I think this is not just a wizard's trouble..." Ivan shrugged and spoke eloquently. "Let's put it this way, an extremely dangerous person in the magic world escaped from prison more than a year ago and is preparing to gather people to provoke a war between wizards and ordinary people!"
