Since the Time Administration was destroyed at some point, it would be inconvenient for Atreus to use his original name, which is somewhat unlucky. Moreover, although it is unlikely, it would be possible if the murderer comes back to kill him.
Oops, changing the name will also prevent this place from being located during time travel.
As for the reason why it is called the "Ministry" of Magic, it is because this level sounds bigger than the "Bureau". After all, the organization on Earth that is composed of ordinary humans and has the power to control as long as extraordinary factors are involved is just called the "Bureau" of S.H.I.E.L.D.
.
Although this was just a simple name change, the effect was immediate. The creature "Gulu", which was still twisting and struggling, froze right there after hearing the word "Ministry of Magic", as if a pickled fish was being processed.
Dried salted fish.
From this point of view, his change of name may have been a mistake. This "former employee of the Time Administration" who had no idea what he had encountered and whose mind was in chaos must have seen this name when observing the timeline.
"Tell me, how did 'Loki' destroy the Space-Time Administration?" Atreus lowered Gollum from the roof, but still tied him up, and then randomly threw an electric spark to wake him up.
Hmm...it seems that the symptoms are getting more serious by referring to myself in the third person as if nothing happened.
"[Loki...I remember...Loki...went to different timelines for a woman...In the end, that woman killed the director...terrible...Loki's woman is really scary.]" Gulu was trembling as he spoke.
Said unclearly.
"Nonsense! She wouldn't do that!" Atreus interrupted Gollum by slightly increasing the power.
However, having said that, judging from the experience of different worlds, it is not impossible that there will be a Lily who behaves decisively and decisively, but no one knows that she is very delicate and fragile inside...
Hell, it was just a hypothesis, but I already had the idea of comforting Lily like that. It seemed that this journey had a greater impact on me than expected. I just hoped that Lily would not be scared by me after returning to the real dimension.
"How did Loki let this place change hands?" Atreus asked another question.
"[Director, there is a ring, and the person who wears it is the director.]" Gulu replied confusedly: "[But the director was killed by a woman's Loki!]"
"No nonsense," Loki blocked Gulu's mouth with a large piece of ice, "and the grammar is wrong, it's 'Loki's woman'."
"[Uh-huh——!]" Gulu struggled hard, but couldn't move.
Does this already classify her as "one's own woman"? Tsk tsk.
Isn’t this inheritance method a bit outrageous? What if someone doesn’t have fingers?
From the Green Lantern Corps, right?
Is that the ring that Gulu has been picking up? Does he also want to be the mayor?
Do you want to use the "Flying Curse"?
It's rare for these sophisticated personalities to come up with a good proposal.
Atreus flicked his wand: "[Director Qualification Ring is coming]!"
"[...]"
There was silence, and even Gulu, who was still trying to struggle, stopped and looked at him with wide, bloodshot eyes.
"Ahem, mistake," Atreus waved his wand again: "[The director's ring is coming!]"
More complete silence than before.
Is there a possibility that the ring no longer belongs to the director?
Or maybe the director is dead?
Stop saying a few words, you virtual personalities!
Atreus gritted his teeth and waved his wand again: "[The ring is coming!]"
Boom boom boom... bang!
After a short delay, overwhelming ring-shaped objects of different sizes and shapes fell from the sky, instantly burying Atreus underneath.
Tsk... Love makes people stupid, this saying is actually true.
Why didn't you go to Oa Star to do this?
Is there a possibility that the Green Lantern Corps' ring is bound to it?
How can can tabs and random plastic strips be considered rings?
I understand the logic, but what's going on with that truck tire?
Atreus climbed out of the ring in silence: "I suddenly thought of a question."
Calm down, it's okay for you to hear us.
But if you want to speak to us.
It's really refined.
I am talking to myself!
Atreus was silent for two seconds and continued: "If I will become the director in the future, no, the minister, I must be very clear about my current plans, then-"
He raised his wand and pointed at the door of the director's office: "[Minister Loki is flying here!]"
Quiet.
puff.
Uh-huh-huh...
No one is allowed to laugh! Pfft!
Ahem, I am asking a very serious question, if you become a minister in the future, at this point in time, will you cooperate and show up, or will you never show up and make a fool of yourself?
"This may prove that on this time and space train, I am the leader," Atreus said to himself as he turned to Gollum, who was still lying on the ground, staring, as if he didn't understand what he was doing at all: "
So Guru, what is your 'treasure'?"
"[My treasure!]" It seemed that because of the mention of the keyword, Gollum, who had just been shocked by the "Ministry of Magic", regained his vitality, or went crazy: "[Oh~ my golden, small, smooth,
A perfect circular treasure——】"
"...Director's ring?" Atreus asked in a tone that meant he wanted to slap himself.
"【No!】"
"Oh, then..."
"[Even if Gulu is no longer the director, the treasure still belongs to Gulu!]"
"..."
Next time if you go to some strange place, be sure to take Sherlock with you.
Because I thought too much, I was blinded by the truth in front of me.
And that guy who calls himself a detective will definitely not be deceived.
The answer is obvious. This "Gulu" is the former director of the Time Administration, Nathaniel Richards. Someone who invaded the Time Administration - it must not be him and Lily - was killing all the Time Administration.
employees tried to force the former director to hand over his ring, but failed, so he was subjected to some kind of temporal torture.
Obviously, the director's ring has some extremely powerful owner-recognition properties. As long as the original owner does not give up, no one can snatch it. But what if the original owner's mind is so worn that he cannot understand what "rejection" means?
The high-spirited man on the sculpture at the door, even though he was tortured into this horrible state and his mind degenerated into a beast, he still retained the obsession to never hand over the ring.
But the ring is gone, and the murderer will naturally not appear again.
"So, Mr. Nathaniel Richards, where did you hide your 'treasure'?" Atreus asked.
"[It's in a...]"
At this moment, the pale dwarf showed an indescribable and powerful aura, even though tens of thousands of people were there, he said in a suddenly normal tone:
