Chapter 543: 541. The Infernal Affairs of the Ministry of Magic
“waste!”
Voldemort didn’t know how many times he had scolded his moths in this tone.
But the fact is always so disappointing. These purebloods seem to never be able to accomplish even one thing. No matter what kind of task is entrusted to them, he still needs to come forward to clean up the mess in the end.
Well, this is the last time.
Voldemort looked at Lupine and Sirius who had organized everyone to evacuate without hesitation after he appeared on the ground. He knew clearly that this war had begun to enter the final stage.
All the previous battles were preparations for this most advanced battle situation, but now, it is obvious that the Anglo-French United Ministry of Magic has completely lost its advantage.
Now that he stands up, it seems that he has reversed such a disadvantage in an instant, but in fact, he has become a passive party on the battlefield that affects the final result.
However, Voldemort didn’t really care about that.
In the face of absolute strength, the so-called passiveness is not a problem at all. The reason why he has been waiting for the results of the war of the following people is just to lay a solid foundation for his theory.
After all, if the Anglo-French Joint Ministry of Magic wins a big victory, it will provide the most favorable evidence for the theory of pure blood superiority.
But obviously this ending did not satisfy Voldemort.
But the matter has come to this point, and he doesn’t care so much. These days, there is enough time left for Grindelwald and Jon.
Now this Voldemort is confident, even a little conceited, but not to the point of being completely defiant. Although Jon used various tricks to kill him that time, he still won after all. Give him enough time to let him develop, no one can guarantee what Jon will grow into in the future.
The time he booked is these few days. Even if the war of the people below has not reached the final result, Voldemort does not intend to wait any longer, but he did not expect that these people under him could not even hold on to the last few days .
Voldemort didn’t care about the ground, and used his power to rush to the Anglo-French United Ministry of Magic in the Wuping Line position. His gaze was far away in the sky, and he really wanted to know, who was the first person to face him this time?
Still the same loser who made the same mistakes?
Or do they feel they are ready?
While Voldemort was thinking, a golden-red light suddenly flickered in the direction he was looking!
United Kingdom, Ministry of Magic.
After Fudge’s dismissal as Minister for Magic, Barty Crouch Jr. became the new Minister.
Of course, unlike Fudge’s previous decoration, as Voldemort’s absolute confidant, Barty Jr.’s ministerial position will certainly not be in name only.
In addition, Voldemort usually doesn’t care about those big and small affairs at all, and Barty Jr. has almost become the most powerful minister since the establishment of the Ministry of Magic.
But even so, he never showed any smug look, as if he had no other desires in his life other than to serve Voldemort, and he worked upright all day long, and he was unkind to anyone. False words.
This made many people dissatisfied with him. Although the privileges that purebloods should have are quite a lot here with Barty Jr., of course there are conflicts of interests between purebloods, and Barty Jr. obviously wants to be a lonely minister. He treats everyone equally, and only has absolute loyalty to Voldemort. This has caused him to become more and more alienated from other pure-bloods after he became a minister.
“The group of people on the front line are really useless, and in the end they still want the master to do it himself.”
These days, perhaps because of work reasons, Lucius has gotten very close to Barty Jr. After Voldemort returned to power today, he had resumed his position as the director of the Auror Office, and not long after Barty Jr. officially took over as the Minister of Magic, he also became the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
In today’s war, he is mainly responsible for logistics-related work, so naturally he has more contact with Barty Jr.
“If you guys take less kickbacks, maybe this failure won’t come.”
Little Barty’s voice was very cold, but Lucius didn’t take it seriously. He knew that he was not the only one receiving kickbacks, and he was not the only one who scolded Barty Jr. Since everyone was scolded, it was equal to who None were scolded.
“Everyone is just doing it for life. Besides, is there any possibility of us losing?” Lucius casually picked up the teacup in front of him, and took a sip.
But Barty Jr. is not in the mood to chat with him here at all. In this special period, there are many things that need to be taken care of by him as a minister. There are still documents on his desk that need to be approved. These do not need to be reported to Voldemort. The chores of being able to make decisions alone, but it is these trivial things that are the most difficult.
“If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, my time is very tight!”
Lucius shrugged helplessly.
“The war below is over, and the casualty report will be out soon, and the post-war compensation needs to be prepared in advance. The logistics department said that you need to tell them in person about this kind of thing, and I, the director, can’t do it.”
“trouble.”
Little Barty put down the documents in his hand, turned his head to face the fireplace and threw some Floo powder into it, and after contacting the office of the director of the logistics department, he confirmed the situation of the post-war pension.
After dealing with such a troublesome matter, he looked at Lucius impatiently again.
“Do you have any other questions?”
Lucius smiled and stood up from his chair.
“If there is anything else to say, I just want to remind you Crouch that it is time to pay attention to rest. No matter how loyal you are to your master, you must have a good and healthy body. You have been so sleepless for so long, Not a good thing.”
Little Batty just said without raising his head.
“If it’s all nonsense, go do your work.”
Lucius turned and left the minister’s office.
After he left, Barty Jr. rubbed the sides of his head. In fact, Lucius didn’t need to tell him that he knew that he really needed to rest.
But other purebloods can be bastards, but he can’t. Voldemort has placed high expectations on him, and he naturally has to make efforts and respond to match such expectations.
Little Barty leaned back on the back of the chair, picked up the tea on the table, and thought that maybe he could take a nap for a while, after all, what they should do most now is to wait for the news of Voldemort’s triumphant return.
However, Little Barty didn’t notice that the position of the cup of tea he was holding seemed to have shifted a bit compared to before.
