I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Chapter 473: The Election of the International Federation of Wizards



As the first Dark Lord, Grindelwald has a powerful prophecy ability, how powerful is it?

He was able to see the detonation of the atomic bomb twenty years in advance, and presented the image of the nuclear explosion to other wizards.

This is better than Trilawney's half-baked level, I don't know how many horses are better!

Betting with this kind of prophecy master is like fighting against the landlord with clear cards. It is clear to the other party what cards you can play. Even if the cards are so good that they are against the sky, they may be instantly killed by him with seventeen cards.

The same is true for dealing with Grindelwald, he will never do a losing business.

Therefore, Rove doubts whether Grindelwald sees in advance that he will go to that island.

Otherwise, Rove really couldn't understand why Grindelwald would make such a deal with his mediocre little wizard.

Unless Grindelwald wants to find an excuse to send Rove the seeds.

But the original Dark Lord was clearly not such a rich and generous man.

But no matter whether he goes or not, Rove just helps to bring a head by the way, so that he can get a seed. Grindelwald may make a lot of money, but Rove definitely does not lose money!

Out of caution, he still wanted to get some useful information from Grindelwald, even a few words.

But several times and Grindelwald made side attacks, this bad old man blocked Rove with just one sentence.

If you want to get the prophecy... help me complete the agreement with Egg and kill Corvinus Gaunt.

When Rove heard this, what else could he say... It can only be said that it is not without reason that Grindelwald only has Dumbledore as a friend.

If he couldn't find out any news, Rove no longer cared about it, and put all his energy on that seed.

He searched the box for two days, found a good spot with fertile soil, plowed the ground several times, and carefully buried the deep purple gem-like seed in the soil.

Rove also set up magic nearby to prevent it from being dug up and eaten by any resentment.

At the same time, Rove, who had stayed in Nurmengard for eight days, finally returned to Dumbledore.

Standing in the dilapidated hall, looking at the dusty old man, Rove asked:

Professor, the election of the International Federation of Wizards is over?

It's over. Dumbledore nodded with a tired face, and replied with a smile, I was re-elected as the president of the International Federation of Wizards.

This is the third time that Dumbledore has been re-elected as chairman, breaking the previous record of up to two terms without precedent.

But Rove was not too surprised by this result. Dumbledore's election as president is not news, but not being elected is big news!

This election is really fast. It only took seven days. I thought it would take at least half a month. Dumbledore sighed softly.

Is seven days short? Rove was a little puzzled.

It's really short. Dumbledore blinked his agate-like eyes and sighed:

The longest election I have experienced, it took more than three months to elect a new president.

In that election, an American representative died at the venue because of his age.

Rove looked at Dumbledore in astonishment.

Dumbledore briefly explained to the boy how the president of the International Federation of Wizards is elected.

On the day of the election, the representatives will live in a secret room. During the election of the president, the secret room is completely isolated from the outside world. The gates are locked and closed with magic, and no one is allowed to enter.

Twice a day, the delegates held a secret ballot casting process. After counting the votes, the ballots were burned immediately, and the smoke was drawn out of the window through the pipe, so that the wizards gathered nearby could know the voting situation.

If no candidate has enough votes, burn the ballots with wet grass and smoke, if a representative is elected, burn the ballots with dry grass and smoke.

After the new chairman announces the dissolution, the election will stop.

What does not enough votes mean? Rove asked.

The wizard with the highest number of votes, but less than two-thirds of the voters, will vote again. Dumbledore said.

What if no wizard has ever reached two-thirds? Rove asked.

The election will continue forever. Dumbledore said with a wry smile, That's why there can be an election that lasts for three months. Anyway, if it goes on slowly, everyone will always reach a consensus.

Rove was a little speechless. He didn't expect that the election of the chairman would use the old man tactics.

This kind of voting over and over has also made many representatives dissatisfied. Dumbledore said, Over the years, there have been proposals to restore the previous election method.

Rove knew that the selection method in the past mainly relied on magical creatures... unicorns.

When selecting, Qilin will first choose a wizard, and then the wizards will vote. Whoever gets the most votes will be the president.

The unicorn, like the unicorn, is the most pure creature in the magical world. It can see through the soul and distinguish between the kind and just people and the cruel and cunning ones.

Therefore, the wizards selected by Qilin are enough to influence the voting tendency of the public...without exception.

This method has been going on for many years, but Grindelwald killed the unicorn in order to be elected as the president of the International Federation of Wizards, and then controlled it to choose himself.

If it weren't for the obstruction of Dumbledore and Newt, Grindelwald would have become the president.

Grindelwald's lack of speaking about witches and Germans also prompted the reform of the International Federation of Wizards to become the current election method.

It can only be said that Grindelwald is the root of all evil!

After the election, you should be busy for the time being, right? Rove wondered, Why are you here now?

There are indeed a series of tasks to be carried out, but the most urgent task is for the saints to attack the floating dragon boat. Dumbledore looked at the boy with a solemn expression, and said:

Rove, as a witness and savior, you must attend the meeting no matter what.

I want to join the International Federation of Wizards too? Rove was a little surprised.

Dumbledore took out a gold watch from his pocket and looked carefully. The watch had twelve hands but no numbers, and there were some small stars rotating along the edge of the dial.

Dumbledore looked at it for a moment, then put the watch back in his pocket, got up and said:

Let's go, the meeting is about to start, and I'm going to take you back to Berlin now.

Rove hummed. He picked up his suitcase and followed Dumbledore to the outside, but he only took a few steps and asked again:

Professor, aren't you saying goodbye to Grindelwald?

Dumbledore stopped in his tracks. The old man just looked at the side face, there was no abnormality, but he was still silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: Forget it.

The two walked out of Nurmengard and walked away along a path.

Grindelwald stood alone in front of the small window, silently watching the figure that appeared and disappeared, dazed, and after a long time, he let out a sigh.

...

...
