Chapter 117: The Wizarding Society in Bulk
Ground floor of the Ministry of Magic.
A hidden secret room.
A group of people, all tied up, were kneeling on the ground, crying and howling.
In front of them was John standing expressionless.
And a lot of dementors.
"Minister Shafiq, you can't do that!"
"I bled for the Ministry of Magic! I sweated for the Ministry of Magic!"
"My contribution is even greater! I participated in the First Wizarding War! Please, Minister Shafiq, let me go!"
"Minister Shafiq, I know I was wrong! I will be loyal to you! Spare my life!"
…
There was a chorus of begging for mercy.
It is constantly echoing in this huge secret room opened with the [Traceless Stretch Spell].
However, John remained unmoved.
He just stood there, letting fear permeate the bodies and minds of these people.
Until the pocket watch in his hand vibrated slightly.
John said coldly:
"The time has come for execution."
"call--"
The dementors, who could not wait any longer, flew out.
They fly up and down in the crowd, constantly absorbing positive emotions.
It wasn't until all the emotions were exhausted that they began to enjoy the meal, lifting these people's chins and slowly kissing their lips.
The screams and pleas for mercy in the secret room slowly disappeared.
Instead, there was the sound of the corpse falling down and a strange sucking sound.
Until finally, even these creepy sounds disappeared.
Everything returns to silence.
The dementors began to gather.
They knelt on the ground and saluted John.
John walked through the passage composed of them with an indifferent expression, returned directly to his office, and then sat behind his desk, quietly stroking the nun's wand in his hand, as if waiting for something.
On the desktop in front of him, there were a large pile of documents.
What is densely written on it are all the results of John's work in the past few months.
If these things were just placed there, the scale would look extremely terrifying, enough to make one's scalp numb.
But to sum it up, there are actually only five things.
[Obtain the recognition of the International Federation of Wizards and truly lead the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China in a legal and orthodox capacity]
[Implementing the "Encouraging Entrepreneurship Plan"]
[Implement the "Periodic Replacement Plan"]
[Using the Daily Prophet and other organizations for propaganda]
【Werewolf equality】
Among them, the most important but also the simplest is the first one - obtaining recognition from the International Federation of Wizards.
Say it's important.
This is because if legality and orthodoxy cannot be ensured, the acceptance of John by the wizards of the Republic of China will be much lower. After all, human beings are always nostalgic, especially older people.
Moreover, the lack of legitimacy may also trigger the vigilance of the International Federation of Wizards and the siege of the Ministry of Magic in other regions.
With John's current strength.
Even if all the above things happen.
He was actually not afraid.
But the problem is that these things will greatly slow down the implementation of John's plan against goblins.
So ‘recognition’ and ‘orthodoxy’ are very important.
And the reason why it is simple.
It is because of the particularity of the magic world itself.
Many Muggle-born wizards may think that the 'Ministry of Magic' is just like the 'zf' they are familiar with. It is an agency that governs and manages society for a certain 'gj'. 'gj' means will, issuing
The agency that orders and handles affairs.
But this is not the case.
The world of magic is extremely special.
Let’s put it in a relatively easy-to-understand and popular way.
The entire wizarding society is in bulk.
Wizarding society can't even be fully called a society.
It is more like it was developed based on Muggle society, a small and closed cultural circle, and all common sense comes from Muggle society.
Moreover, wizards have countless smaller circles in this small cultural circle, which are independent of each other, only have limited exchanges, and have no unified and real rule.
In this case, the 'Ministry of Magic' is naturally not a 'ruling organ'.
The Ministry of Magic actually had only one original job.
That is to promote and maintain the Secrecy Act.
It is for this purpose that the ancient Wizarding Council was reorganized into the current Ministry of Magic and established branches around the world.
And now the Ministry of Magic will develop into an organization that basically manages everything.
In fact, it was because wizards saw the benefits of the implementation of the Statute of Secrecy and their growing trust in the Ministry of Magic that they gave the Ministry of Magic the power to manage these things.
In other words, all the existing powers of the Ministry of Magic are developed on the basis of the Statute of Secrecy.
The Statute of Secrecy is the foundation of the Ministry of Magic and the source of its ‘legitimacy’.
Why did Grindelwald attract the Ministry of Magic around the world to suppress him?
Because what he wants to do is to overturn the "Secrecy Act"!
He wants to destroy the 'legitimacy' of the Ministry of Magic and destroy all the benefits and achievements that the Ministry of Magic has developed from the cornerstone of the Statute of Secrecy!
Then of course the Ministry of Magic around the world will fight against him.
This is also the reason why other regions did not react much when Voldemort was rampant in the country.
After all, Voldemort has no objection to the Statute of Secrecy.
Voldemort just wanted to re-establish a new resource allocation model based on the 'Pure Blood Supremacy Theory'.
This is a small-scale internal fight among the wizards of the Republic of China, and it does not harm the interests of wizards in other regions at all.
But what John did was even simpler.
Not only did he not oppose the "Secrecy Act", he didn't even think about changing the "distribution model" like Voldemort did.
It just continues to bear the name of the Ministry of Magic and makes some benign fine-tuning.
This approach is welcomed by the International Confederation of Wizards and other magical ministries.
So even though John held the title of 'The Third Dark Lord', he used force to seize Fudge's position.
But when John expressed some goodwill to the International Federation of Wizards through the 'Wizengamot Council', he gained 'recognition' and 'legitimacy' very simply.

The second item that follows - the "Encouraging Entrepreneurship Plan" is the most important thing in all John's plans after the first item.
Wizards have always been a sparsely populated group.
This is a very serious pain point.
From some perspectives, the reason why wizards are so "loose" is largely due to the sparse population.
This greatly limits the development of wizards in various fields.
Naturally, the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China also knows this.
Therefore, for a long time, the tendency of the Wizengamot has been developing to the left.
The representative figure among them is Dumbledore.
Under their promotion, the concept of 'bloodline' is becoming increasingly thin.
The number of 'Mudblood' wizards is increasing.
As a result, the population of the entire wizard group began to grow.
The problem is that much of this growing population is wasted.
Many Muggle-born wizards are forced to earn a living in the Muggle world with a primary school diploma.
This is undoubtedly a huge waste.
