Chapter 278 Provoking the Demon King
"So—" Voldemort's pupils shone shrewdly, "Lucius's son sounds really capable... If such a character can be used by me, the glory of the pure-blood family and the creation of a glorious era dominated by Death Eaters are just around the corner... It's a pity..."
Voldemort sneered a few times, the laughter was a bit like the night owl's call in the moonlit forest, sharp and creepy, "It's a pity that Lucius is ignorant of current affairs, if he can take his son to join me, I can completely ignore his betrayal in the past 13 years, and even reuse him, giving him a position second only to me in the big family of Death Eaters..."
"What's the matter?" Voldemort's sharp eyes suddenly turned to someone in the circle of Death Eaters. Just when he was talking about Lucius, the Death Eater's figure trembled unnaturally. Voldemort narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous look flashed in his eyes. He said coldly, "Folley, do you have any objection to my handling?"
The Death Eater was Claude Foley, a descendant of the offshoot of the Foley family.
The Foley family had severed ties with him on the surface when he was accused of being a Death Eater in the early years, but in fact the two parties still had contacts secretly.
When Grindelwald began to ravage Europe, the Foley family was unlucky enough to get the hot potato of that term's Minister of Magic.Therefore, on the surface, the Foley family actively organized British Aurors to participate in the siege of Grindelwald by European governments, but secretly they were passive and slowed down, preserved their strength, and kept dragging European countries back.
This case is the most suitable to describe the principle that the Foley family has always upheld - betting on both sides, black and white take all.Even when people discovered his nasty little tricks, there was no shortage of cruelty to abandon the car to protect the handsome man, and a strong man cut off his wrist. Claude was only accused of being a Death Eater, and even if he had not been convicted, the family cut off his relationship with him as quickly as possible.
Since the disappearance of the heir of the direct line, the Foley family has spent a lot of money to search but still has no results. They have long identified the Malfoy family as the culprit behind the scenes, but there is no evidence. In addition, the Malfoy family has a close relationship with the Ministry of Magic. If there is no real evidence, even if the four families who disappeared at the same time combined, they would not be able to make the Malfoy family pay any price.
Since the means on the surface cannot be used, then they can only use black hands.
As a result, Claude Foley, who had joined the Death Eaters back then, was secretly summoned by the Foley family, and was given the task of "sowing discord between Voldemort and the Malfoy family" that day.
Since the family and the Ministry of Magic can't deal with the Malfoy family, let the Death Eaters who belong to the dark and disorderly camp and have no rules to worry about take action on their behalf.As long as it is done properly, with Voldemort acting so ruthlessly, the Malfoy family may suffer disaster.
That's why Foley had just heard what Voldemort said, and his body had that reaction.He is responsible for the family, and he is worried that if Voldemort really loves the second young master of the Malfoy family, then it is not impossible for Voldemort to choose to let the past go and let the Malfoy family return to the Death Eaters——
In this case, Master Hector's revenge will not be avenged, and the family's mission will not be completed.This must not happen!
But he didn't think of how to intervene to prevent this from happening. Unexpectedly, Voldemort first noticed his abnormality and questioned him.
Claude lowered his head, tried hard to control his emotions, so that his thoughts would not be so easily seen by the Dark Lord, and then slowly said: "Master, although the Malfoy family is rich and powerful, it is only because their ancestors were very good at collecting money."
"Seriously speaking, the Malfoy family has always been small in number, and they are not good at fighting. We have never heard of any powerful fighters from their family. I think..." Foley pondered for a while, as if thinking about how to continue the conversation, and then said: "Lucius would have the guts to betray his master, I'm afraid there is something else to rely on."
"Master," Selwyn said, "I agree with Foley's words. The Malfoy family has risen too fast in the past few years, which is unreasonably fast, especially in many places that are full of mystery..."
"In the Ministry of Magic, unusual personnel transfers happened frequently, and almost all of us smelled something wrong..."
"The Patriarch of the Bletch family was suddenly demoted inexplicably, and he was transferred to a casual position in the Centaur Liaison Office - he is my right and left arm, and he ranks in the forefront among the vassal families under my command. His loss of power has hit me hard, but this is not the worst -"
"Among Selwyn's vassal families, the Wakanda family, which was originally the most powerful, turned to the Malfoy family without telling me..."
"The betrayal of the Wankanda family was beyond my expectation. This family has been attached to Selwyn for six centuries, and the stakes are extremely strong. Who would have thought that they would betray as soon as they say it..."
"The most unbelievable thing is that after they betrayed, it was as if they were riding on Zouwu's back. The whole family developed at an unbelievable speed in the business and political circles. In less than a year, their power was almost on par with the 28 holy pure-blood families, and even stronger than the last few..."
"With the successful example of the Wakanda family as such a clear banner, the entire British wizarding world suddenly surged - first the Burns family, then the McLaggan family, and then the Runcorn family... These families have stood up and publicly stated their positions and attached themselves to the flag of the Malfoy family, especially after the Greengrass family and the Carlo family, which are also the holy pure-blood 28 families, followed suit—"
"The general trend of the Malfoy family has been established." Mr. Selwyn's tone has not fluctuated, and the emotional instability caused by his daughter's disappearance has obviously been suppressed.
"The weird thing is——" Mr. Selwyn raised his head, his pupils filled with coldness, "The other families are fine—" No matter how hard he tried to maintain his calm tone, everyone present could hear the traces of hatred contained in it, "Master, we just mentioned that in the process of suppressing and fighting against the Malfoy family, our seven families once formed a short-term alliance, including the Carlo family and the Nott family..."
"But—at this time, we suddenly discovered—" Mr. Selwyn said in a deep voice, "I don't know when it started...Carrow, Nott...these two families...actually hooked up with the Malfoy family behind our backs..."
"The few of us left in the alliance can't figure it out. There are so many profit distributions and cooperation agreements that were agreed at the beginning... These two families will actually invest in the Malfoy family without looking back..."
"The only explanation we can find is—" Mr. Selwyn drew a low breath.
"Sherin Malfoy." Selwyn said softly, "That genius of the Malfoy family..."
"Only his existence and his fame can explain all this..."
"In the long history of the British wizarding world, even 1000 years ago, the Malfoy family has probably never reached this height... Lucius, an old guy who is more than cunning but not brave enough..." Selwyn said slowly: "So, we suspect—"
"Those families, large and small, are rushing to join the Malfoy family camp like a snowball, there is a great possibility—" Selwyn said, "not for the Malfoy family, but for the fame of the boy Sherin Malfoy..."
"Being able to do this is not just explained by magic talent and outstanding strength—" Selwyn said, "This boy, I am afraid he is more powerful and terrifying than we imagined... so scary that it reminds us of a person—"
"That is, master, your old enemy - Albus Dumbledore."
