Chapter 258 Visit and Sacrifice
Chapter 258 Visit and Sacrifice
Gloria was very busy during the holidays and communicated almost every day.
With her technology sharing and material support, the Weasley twins quickly created new products.
It is better than the existing alarm products on the market. To enter or exit silently, the user must cast a spell with a magic wand. If someone else approaches or casts a spell, the alarm will respond immediately and it will remind the user in one direction. The intruder will not know about it, which can buy more time for the user to escape.
Today Gloria can take a break from her busy schedule because the Minister of the Ministry of Magic has been chosen, and it is Scrimgeour.
This is the news on the headline of the Daily Prophet today. Scrimgeour looks like an old lion, with thick hair streaked with gray, indicating that he is quite old.
His eyes in the photo are still sharp, giving people a tough feeling at first glance.
No matter how hard Fudge struggled, it was of no avail. He resigned, and the Ministry of Magic also admitted that the Dementors were out of control.
After reading this, she got up and went to the fireplace in the hall.
There was a flash of fire, and then he walked out of the house and was already in London.
I could faintly hear voices here, and when I got closer I found that it was Tonks talking to Lupin.
Lupin's expression was very gentle, and Tonks saw her when she smiled.
"Leah!"
Gloria walked into the meeting room and asked, "Are you feeling well?"
"Much better." Tonks pulled her to sit down, "I'm back to work at the Ministry of Magic. I'm fine."
Gloria then looked at Lupin and said, "Long time no see, Professor Lupin."
"I haven't been a professor for a long time." Lupin said, "I've always wanted to say that you are the most powerful student I have ever seen."
"Thank you." Gloria didn't hesitate. She looked around and asked, "Don't the Weasleys live here anymore?"
Tonks nodded, "Yes, the location of this place needs to be kept secret. They don't live alone like me, and they are very close to Harry. The Ministry of Magic pays close attention to them. They went home after what happened that night."
Lupin added, "Arthur and Molly don't want to hide here forever, so Sirius and I went there to add protective magic."
"I understand." Gloria looked at Tonks's face carefully and said, "Why don't you rest for a while?"
Tonks' hair turned a bright orange. "I'm fine. Sirius and Lupin take turns taking me to the Ministry of Magic every day. My boss hasn't arranged any work far from London recently."
She said, "Sirius also bought new products from Fred and George. Combined with your protective spells, it will be hard for what happened before to happen again."
As soon as the holiday came, Gloria cast a cursed defensive magic on the house where Sirius and Tonks lived, just like the house in London, while she was not too busy.
"We have tested it." Lupin is now staying at Sirius' place, "The product is very effective."
"That's good." Gloria believed that this investment and cooperation would allow her to make a lot of money.
At this time, Lupin took out the flashing two-sided mirror, and Sirius' voice came from the mirror, "Remus, Emmeline Vance is in trouble. She is near the backyard of the Muggle Prime Minister. We are going to take a look."
Lupin stood up immediately, "I'll be right there."
He put away the two-way mirror and said to the two of them, "You continue, Tonks, wait for news at home."
Tonks was still in shock as she watched the figure walk away, her bright orange hair turning brown-grey.
"Emmeline Vance?" Gloria asked.
"She is a member of the Order of the Phoenix. She joined right after Dumbledore established the Order. You should have seen her. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She likes to wear a shawl."
So I have an impression of Gloria. I have seen her in the conference room. She is a very elegant witch.
Tonks said dejectedly, "Kingsley can't protect the British Muggle Prime Minister all the time. Emmeline is nearby to assist him."
With Voldemort fully exposed, the Death Eaters began to act.
There have been a lot of news in the Muggle world these days. The Brockdale Bridge suddenly broke in two, and more than a dozen cars fell into the water. A hurricane occurred in the southwest of England, and residents' houses and surrounding trees were destroyed. A large number of people were killed and injured, which caused heated discussions in the Muggle world.
However, the wizarding world knew what was going on, and the Death Eaters attacked the bridge.
The giants directly broke into the Muggle world and caused destruction everywhere. The Ministry of Magic sent a lot of people over to prevent the magical world from being exposed.
"Because of these messed up things, the Ministry of Magic sent Kingsley to protect the Muggle Prime Minister to prevent the Death Eaters from attacking Muggles directly." Tonks said: "Lovely Milin..."
Gloria was not surprised that the Death Eaters were causing trouble in the Muggle world.
"Tonks, there are always casualties in war," she said, "so you must be more careful and keep the portkey I gave you close to you."
Tonks felt the portkey ring on her finger, "I will."
Gloria held her hand, "Why is Mr. Lupin here? I know he lives with Sirius."
"Don't get me wrong." Tonks explained quickly, "I was injured, and the Weasleys left. Sirius often went to investigate around where Harry lived, in his Animagus form of course. Lupin was worried that I had psychological problems due to the previous torture, so he often came to talk to me."
Gloria hugged her and said, "They arrested you because of me. I have implicated you."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Tonks ruffled her hair fiercely. "I am a member of the Order of the Phoenix. I am destined to fight them. Even if it weren't for you, I would still fight those people."
Gloria said: "I never told you that I tortured that crazy woman severely."
Tonks was well aware of Bellatrix's hatred for her. "Thank you, Leah. To be honest, the Cruciatus Curse was really uncomfortable. Fortunately, you taught me the spell. Mom cast it on me three or four times a day, so I was able to recover so quickly."
All members of the Order of the Phoenix knew about the spell of love healing, and they also knew that the Longbottoms' conditions had improved.
"If I can help it, I don't want you to be cast under this spell again."
"Leah, you're so kind." Tonks was in a good mood. "Because of you, my opinion of Slytherin has improved a lot. The most shocking thing was the Malfoy family. I felt very uncomfortable at the time, but when I saw Lucius Malfoy and the people from the Order of the Phoenix appear together, I thought it was an illusion because of the pain."
Gloria struggled out of her arms. "Lucius's family loves honor and wealth, but that doesn't mean they like to use cruel means. Besides, with me around, why would I want to be that man's servant?"
"Draco Malfoy has changed a lot for you." Tonks said, "I learned from Harry and the others that Draco has changed a lot compared to what he was like before. Love is really powerful."
Gloria smiled and shook her head. “No, I believe that even without my influence, he would not become a bad person in the end.”
The fact that Draco was chosen by a wand with a unicorn hair core shows that he has never been an evil person at heart.
