Witcher at Hogwarts

Chapter 296 The new semester begins

And such active giving up of power was actually the result of Ethan's careful thinking.

When the Ministry of Magic is experiencing a serious crisis, perhaps everyone is temporarily willing to obey Ethan's command.

But now that the chefs have been arrested, the external pressure has been lifted.

At this time, Ethan has such a firm grip on the Auror team, which will definitely make many people feel uncomfortable and have a sense of threat.

Moreover, controlling the Auror force at this time would not bring the slightest benefit to Ethan.

It's better to hand it over generously and gain everyone's favor.

And for a period of time in the future, there will definitely be a certain amount of chaos in the Ministry of Magic's security.

The bombshell news of Voldemort's resurrection has already stirred up waves.

Aurors must be the busiest during this time.

Ethan doesn’t plan to spend too much energy here.

After finishing his work at the Ministry of Magic, Ethan submitted all the formalities and was ready to leave the Ministry of Magic.

Originally, he should have reported to Fudge again, but now no one knows where Fudge has gone.

Therefore, Ethan had no choice but to return to Hogwarts.

After all, Ethan has another identity, that is, the teacher of Hogwarts.

Using the Ministry of Magic's floo network, Ethan quickly arrived at Hogwarts.

Now that the start of school is approaching, students at Hogwarts will arrive at the school on the Hogwarts Express tomorrow.

Start their new semester of study.

After returning to Hogwarts, Ethan asked the house elf for a dinner and ate it happily.

After eating, I started to rest and prepare for my teaching career tomorrow.

But in the dark caves of Albania, it was a different scene.

Voldemort, who was as big as a baby, was currently nestled on a sofa.

His thin, skinny arms were holding a newspaper, and he was looking at the newspaper carefully with squinted eyes.

Beside him, a group of Death Eaters in black robes stood tremblingly.

"Lucius betrayed us -" Voldemort's voice sounded unusually dark and hoarse, like a snake crawling through people's hearts.

The Death Eaters who heard this voice couldn't help but tremble. Voldemort's pressure on them was too great.

"This damn coward, a spineless dog! Just like you!" Voldemort yelled.

The big snake entrenched around Voldemort also raised its head for a moment, staring directly at the group of Aurors.

The big mouth made a hissing sound, as if it was going to attack them next moment.

Voldemort's harsh voice echoed back and forth in the empty cave.

"Master! We have always been loyal to you! There is no disobedience at all!"

Alecto Carrow defended Voldemort with a trembling voice, she was afraid that Voldemort would kill them in anger.

"He betrayed because of fear! You also obeyed because of fear! This kind of loyalty has no value!" Voldemort said harshly.

All the Death Eaters closed their eyes in despair at this moment, thinking that the Dark Lord must kill them to vent his anger.

But after waiting like this for a long time, the death they expected did not come to them.

"I will not treat those who follow me badly, no matter what your purpose is." Voldemort said calmly.

"When I return to the Ministry of Magic and take back everything that belongs to me, I will use the most cruel method to torture the traitor, Lucius Malfoy, and the property of the Malfoy family will belong to you people here today! "Voldemort said.

Hearing Voldemort say this, the Death Eater who was still frightened just now suddenly became excited and thickened in breathing.

The Malfoy family, a pure-blood family that has existed for thousands of years, has accumulated considerable wealth.

At this time, many Death Eaters had already imagined themselves sitting on a hill made of gold Galleons.

Voldemort has always been a man who likes to play with people's hearts.

Finally, the next day came.

Almost every corner of the wizarding world is discussing the fact that Voldemort is still alive.

Everyone's tone was full of fear and worry, and the difficult days may continue for a while.

This is the consensus of everyone in the British wizarding community today.

At the same time, many people discovered that some of their colleagues and neighbors had disappeared inexplicably.

This made many wizards start to panic again, and there were several main theories circulating about the disappearance of wizards.

First, these guys were captured by Voldemort.

Second, these guys were secretly arrested by the Ministry of Magic.

The third is that these guys themselves were all fish that slipped through the net when captured by Death Eaters. After hearing the news that Voldemort was not dead, they all went to Voldemort.

The Ministry of Magic refuted the rumors at the first opportunity. The Ministry of Magic did not secretly arrest anyone.

Regarding the mysterious disappearance of wizards, the Ministry of Magic is still investigating.

Even though the Ministry of Magic has issued a statement, rumors and various speculations are still intensifying.

There are even rumors that the American Ministry of Magic has kidnapped British wizards.

However, all of this has nothing to do with Ethan. Due to Ethan's timely withdrawal, these chaos did not affect Ethan at all.

While the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic were extremely busy, Ethan had just woken up from his laziness.

At this time, the students had already entered Hogwarts, and the situation outside also affected Hogwarts.

Many students gathered together at this time, worryingly discussing the matter of Voldemort's resurrection.

Harry, Ron and Hermione were relatively happy. They had had enough of the empty Hogwarts.

Now that they finally met their classmates, the three of them couldn't wait to chat with their roommates.

Soon, it was time for the annual opening ceremony.

Due to the dire situation outside, there was always a lingering air of gloom in this opening ceremony.

The auditorium was still as glorious and magnificent, and it was specially decorated for the banquet of the new student.

Hundreds of candles floated above the table, making the gold saucers and goblets sparkle. When Ethan arrived, the four long college tables were already filled with chattering students.

There was a fifth table at the top of the auditorium, with staff sitting on one side facing their students.

This time, there was a new face on the professor's chair.

It was a fat, bald old man with bulging eyes and a silver-white beard like a walrus.

He wore a decent white shirt with a brown woolen waistcoat over it.

His bald head shone in the candlelight, and his waistcoat-clad belly cast a large shadow on the table.

At this time, he was talking to Dumbledore with a red face.

Dumbledore was the first to notice Ethan. He smiled and waved his hand twice, gesturing for Ethan to walk over.

"I have to introduce you, Ethan, this is my newly hired Potions teacher, Professor Slughorn," Dumbledore said to Ethan with a smile.
