The God of Ice and Fire at Hogwarts - Chapter 771
c771 The Magical Congress of the United States of America officially withdraws from the International Confederation of Wizards!
“The International Statute of Secrecy must not be abolished! If the magic world cannot hide from the No-Maj, then we will defeat the No-Maj and rule the No-Maj! We are noble wizards, why should we succumb to those No-Maj?!”
The American wizard representative roared angrily.
Lin En chuckled. He did not seem to be angry at the words of the American wizard representative. He just said faintly: “American wizard representative, your speech now is very similar to your enemy decades ago, the first generation of Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald!”
Hearing Lin En’s words, the American wizard representative was frightened and sweated.
Wizards who have experienced that war know how terrible the first generation of Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald was, and how miserable the fate of those who were marked by the remnants of Grindelwald’s thoughts was.
The American wizard representative glared at Lin En, and he growled: “What about you?! British wizard representative, you advocate the abolition of the International Statute of Secrecy, isn’t that the same as Grindelwald’s idea?!”
Listening to the quarrel between Lin En and the American wizard representative, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the first seat, kept twitching his mouth.
He knocked on the table gently and said: “Silence!”
Lynn and the American wizard representative both stopped arguing and turned their eyes to Dumbledore.
The fierce debate with the American wizard representative became more and more intense, and Dumbledore, the president of the International Confederation of Wizards, forcibly interrupted him. This is exactly what Lin En wanted to see.
From the performance of the wizard representatives of the magic ministries of various countries present, their reactions after seeing the content of the fusion plan were satisfactory to Lin En.
Therefore, he did not want to see the American wizard representative transmit his views to the wizard representatives of other magic ministries, and he did not want the American wizard representative’s theory of wizard nobility to affect or change the ideas of other wizard representatives.
At this time, it is the most appropriate way to let Dumbledore interrupt their quarrel, because that will mean the beginning of voting.
“Please all representatives of the International Confederation of Wizards vote on the draft of the fusion plan!”
Dumbledore saw Lin’s thoughts, he said lightly, and tapped the magic wand on the table in front of him.
The next moment, three alchemical buttons appeared in front of each wizard representative. Among these three alchemical buttons, two buttons represent approval and opposition to the fusion plan proposed by Lin, and the remaining button represents abstention.
Lin pressed the button representing “agreement” without hesitation, and then observed the wizard representatives around him.
Among these wizard representatives, many wizard representatives’ Ministry of Magic had already discussed the result, that is, the abolition of the International Statute of Secrecy, which has a great appeal in their magic world.
The fusion plan undoubtedly supports the abolition of the International Statute of Secrecy, and it is an extremely stable and step-by-step plan, which made them immediately choose to press the alchemical button representing “agreement”.
Of course, there are also many small countries whose ministries of magic were instructed by the MACUSA. They were either bribed by money or coerced by force and chose to press the alchemical button representing “opposition”.
Only a few wizard representatives from the Ministry of Magic were undecided and chose to abstain.
More wizard representatives from the Ministry of Magic were caught in a dilemma. They used the alchemical communication tools in their hands to contact their own Ministry of Magic, hoping to get instructions from the Ministry of Magic.
In order to give these wizard representatives enough time to make a choice and let them make a choice that can better represent the Ministry of Magic in their country, this voting session lasted for half a day.
During this period, wizard representatives from various countries had a meal in the conference building, and took this time to contact their own Ministry of Magic and get the final answer.
As time went by, the voting session ended.
The alchemical instrument completed the counting of the votes and presented it to Dumbledore.
After seeing the result of the vote, Dumbledore had a barely perceptible smile on his face, and he announced loudly: “I, Albus Dumbledore, as the President of the International Confederation of Wizards, announce the voting results of the draft of the integration plan as follows: 132 votes in favor, 54 votes against, and 7 abstentions!”
“I, Albus Dumbledore, as the President of the International Confederation of Wizards, announce that the draft of the integration plan has been passed with more than two-thirds of the votes! The International Confederation of Wizards will provide guidance to the magic mansions of various countries based on the integration plan and supervise the implementation of the integration plan! Together, we will create a better tomorrow for the magic world!”
Dumbledore said.
After learning the final result of the vote, both Lynn and Irina breathed a sigh of relief.
You know, in the past two years when the International Statute of Secrecy was frequently leaked, they have been committed to promoting the abolition of the International Statute of Secrecy.
But unfortunately, the International Statute of Secrecy is so deeply rooted in the eyes of most wizards that it is difficult to remove, and the power of the American Magic Congress has made the number of votes against it prevail, preventing the implementation of their ideas.
Thanks to the fusion plan proposed by Lin En and Irina, wizards have the opportunity to abolish the International Statute of Secrecy. This step-by-step process is accepted by many magic ministries that originally opposed it, which is why the draft was passed this time.
Of course, the passage of the fusion plan also has some luck!
The 132 “yes” votes were passed on the edge of two-thirds of the votes. If there was one less wizard representative who voted “yes”, the draft of the integration plan would be rejected.
“The Magical Congress of the United States firmly disagrees!” After learning the voting results, the American wizard representative stood up angrily, disregarding the order of the meeting, and openly opposed, “The Magical Congress of the United States firmly opposes the integration plan and will never implement the integration plan in the American wizard world!”
Seeing that the American wizard representative violated the meeting order of the International Confederation of Wizards, Dumbledore frowned and said, “American wizard representative, this is a joint decision of the International Confederation of Wizards.”
“According to the principle of minority obeying the majority and the treaty of the International Confederation of Wizards, the Magical Congress of the United States should follow the arrangement of the voting results of the International Confederation of Wizards and implement the specific implementation plan of the integration plan within the country after the International Confederation of Wizards determines it!”
Dumbledore said lightly.
Hearing Dumbledore’s words, the American wizard representative sneered.
Without anyone noticing, a series of data streams flashed in his seemingly flawless eyes, and then, as if he had received some information, he looked at Dumbledore coldly.
He slowly took off the badge of the International Confederation of Wizards on his chest, discarded it like a worn-out shoe, and threw it casually on the table. Then, he took off his tie and placed it steadily on the table.
“In this case, from today on, the Magical Congress of the United States of America will officially withdraw from the International Confederation of Wizards! The Magical Congress of the United States of America will no longer hold any position in the International Confederation of Wizards, nor will it enjoy any rights and obligations of the International Confederation of Wizards!”
The wizard representative of the Magical Congress of the United States of America said coldly. (End of this chapter)
