Chapter 214 Your Will is the Direction of My Advancement
Being undercover?
After hearing Sebastian's suggestion, Lucius hesitated for a moment.
The benefits of this plan are indeed much greater. Apart from anything else, once they succeed, the Malfoy family will immediately be able to transform themselves into a heroic family, and their status will be incomparable to what it is now.
You know, after the fall of the Dark Lord, the Malfoy family used the excuse of the Imperius Curse and the method of donating gold Galleons to avoid the liquidation of the Ministry of Magic.
But since then, the Malfoy family's assets have shrunk a lot and their status has declined a lot.
The Malfoy family still looks glamorous now, but many people dare to step on them.
Just like last year when the Ministry of Magic was investigating dark magic items, the pure-blood traitor Weasley led people to search Malfoy Manor many times.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have thrown away the Dark Lord's diary, and the Malfoy family wouldn't be so passive.
But, being an undercover agent... is too dangerous.
The other party is the Dark Lord. Once discovered by him, death will be the best relief.
Lucius gritted his teeth and spoke to Sebastian in a low voice.
"Since the Dark Lord is only a remnant soul now, why don't you and Dumbledore kill him right now..."
Lucius didn't say it explicitly, but just made a subtle gesture.
In his mind, since the Dark Lord was so weak, now was the best time to get rid of him once and for all.
In this way, many people don't have to worry anymore.
Looking at Lucius' actions, Sebastian knew exactly what he was thinking.
Wow, he is worthy of being the "loyal and brave" Malfoy. He is already thinking about getting rid of the Dark Lord once and for all.
Sebastian shook his head slightly at Lucius: "Of course we want to solve this problem once and for all."
"But, unfortunately. The Dark Lord is in a very special state now. No spell can kill him."
"Only after he is resurrected can we kill him completely."
Hearing this, Lucius felt a little unwilling.
It seems that at this point, the only way out is to go undercover.
Otherwise, after the Dark Lord falls again, the Malfoy family may not be able to escape the liquidation of the Ministry of Magic.
For Cece and Draco, these were necessary sacrifices.
Looking at Lucius whose expression kept changing, Sebastian did not urge him. He just looked at him quietly, waiting for his final decision.
After a long while, Lucius raised his head, looked at Sebastian and said harshly.
"I want to fight for a brighter future for the Malfoy family, so I am willing to be your undercover."
Snapped--
Sebastian snapped his fingers and praised Lucius, "Wise choice, senior!"
"Here," Sebastian took out a magic contract and placed it on the table, "Please sign this contract."
"Don't worry, the content is very loose, but if you betray me, I will know it immediately."
Lucius did not have much resistance to the existence of the magic contract.
He had seen too many intrigues and deceptions and understood that this was just a guarantee to reassure both parties.
If he were to put himself in the other person's shoes, he would definitely ask the other party to swear an unbreakable oath.
Lucius picked up the magic contract, and after confirming that what Sebastian said was correct, he signed his name without hesitation.
After signing, he felt exhausted and leaned back on the sofa, trying to relax his tired body and mind.
call--
I'm so tired...
Seeing Lucius exhausted, Sebastian smiled and said, "Senior, after we sign the magic contract, we will be family."
"Since you are one of us, I am willing to reveal some information to you so that the Malfoy family can make preparations in advance so that they can obtain a hundred or even a thousand times more wealth in the future."
Ok?
what news?
It is possible to obtain hundreds or thousands of times more wealth.
Talking about this kind of problem, I am not tired anymore.
Lucius perked up, sat up straight, and looked at Sebastian with burning eyes: "What news?"
Sebastian did not answer directly, but glanced around the decorations in the study and said.
"The Malfoys have good taste. Many of the items here are Muggle antiques."
"There are even quite a few royal items for Muggles. They are really impressive."
Have a vision!
Lucius smirked.
Although he did not admit it to the outside world, he knew that after Malfoy's ancestors came to England, they obtained a large amount of wealth and power from the Muggle royal family by virtue of their status as wizards, and completed the original accumulation of wealth.
Even this magnificent manor was acquired at that time.
These antiques are the Malfoy family's heritage. Any one of them can be exchanged for the entire fortune of some wizarding families.
Unfortunately, with the advent of the Statute of Secrecy, wizards went into complete hiding.
For the sake of the family's interests, Malfoy's ancestors were forced to choose the camp of pure-blood supremacy.
But what does this have to do with acquiring wealth?
Suddenly, Lucius' heart skipped a beat. The other party would definitely not speak without a purpose. What he said must have a deep meaning.
Why specifically point out Muggle antiques?
No way......
The other party is so bold? !
Lucius looked at Sebastian and asked doubtfully, "Does that mean... you want to break the Statute of Secrecy and make money from Muggles?"
"Tell me the truth," Lucius lowered his voice, "Do you want to become the next Dark Lord?"
"What Dark Lord! That's too ugly."
Sebastian's face straightened: "I am a man of justice. I have no intention of becoming the Dark Lord."
"Everything I do is just to seek benefits for the wizarding world."
Lucius couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
I actually guessed it right.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he heard Sebastian say, "Senior, the magic world's pie is too small, and the wealth is too little."
“If you want to make more money, you have to look to a bigger market.”
"As long as the Statute of Secrecy is broken, the products of the wizarding world will become treasures coveted by Muggles!"
"By then, even the most common potions will be sold at exorbitant prices to Muggles."
"By then, even if wizards can only brew the most common potions, they can still live a prosperous life."
"We can stock up on various magical materials or finished potions in advance."
"By then, as the first batch of people to try it out, we will not only be praised for eternity, but will also earn countless wealth."
"The Malfoy family will also return to the supreme glory of the era without the Statute of Secrecy and recreate its former glory."
Sebastian stood up and said passionately: "I will personally charge at the front."
"And you, my friend," Sebastian looked into Lucius' eyes, "I wonder if you are willing to serve as the representative of the pure-blood families and lead many pure-blood families to cheer for me?"
Lucius' blood boiled with excitement as he listened to Sebastian's description of the prospects.
The representative of a pure-blood family and the countless wealth, each of them made Lucius excited.
An inspiration suddenly came to him, and he stood up suddenly. With the most standard etiquette, he placed his right hand on his chest and bowed deeply to Sebastian.
"From this day forward, your will is the direction of the Malfoy family's progress."
"Mr. Swann."
