Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

Chapter 767
So that's what politicians are all about.
Tiera couldn't help but sigh.

Politicians everywhere are the same; long before the war even begins, they've already started dividing up the spoils.

“Tiera, I think we should keep a close eye on the Muggle activities. They’re not fools; there will always be very vigilant Muggles who notice changes in our wizarding society and take steps to stop our plans,” Arthur Weasley suggested.

“Yes, Muggles aren’t stupid. In fact, because of their huge population, the smart ones among them could drown us with their spittle,” Tierra agreed.

"So, Mr. Tierra, this is what we need to do while we're on the defensive. I think we need someone who can infiltrate Muggle society. We need to be keenly aware of the news in various Muggle countries and among different groups of people. Mr. Tierra, do you have any recommendations?"

“I’ve heard that Gregory Labour is an excellent Muggle scholar with a deep understanding of the Muggle world. Perhaps he would be a suitable candidate,” Arthur Weasley said.

“No, Mr. Weasley, I think you may not understand what I mean,” Irina said helplessly. “What I mean is, if Mr. Tyella could have some kind of magic that would help us monitor the Muggle world?”

“No, Elena, you’re oversimplifying things,” Tiera said with a smile. “Magic monitoring isn’t enough; we need real people to experience the Muggle world.”

"But who should we send? I mean, most of us know nothing about the Muggle world, and it might be dangerous to go there rashly."

“Mr. Weasley has made his decision,” Tyella interrupted gently. “As a reward for Mr. Weasley’s hard work during this period, and also out of a need to understand the Muggle world, I have decided that after the Hogwarts final exams, Mr. Weasley, his family, Harry, and the Muggle-born young witch Hermione Granger will travel to various countries in America and Europe to relax and learn about the customs and culture of the Muggle world.”

“Mr. Weasley is indeed the most suitable candidate. Even when I was far away in Belgium, I had heard that Mr. Weasley was a very famous Muggle expert in the British magical world,” Irina complimented.

It's now obvious to everyone that the Weasleys are highly valued by Tyrell.

Although in the past, Irina had a great disdain for wizards who associated with Muggles.

But now the situation has changed. Their great leader has begun to adopt a conciliatory policy toward Muggles, and as a career politician, Irina certainly doesn't mind saying a few nice words.

“Oh, not at all,” Arthur Weasley blushed, whether from the slight alcohol he’d had or from being praised in person, it was hard to tell.

“But wouldn’t Mr. Weasley and his family and friends be a little overwhelmed by this?” Irina asked. “I mean, as you said, the Muggle world is a much larger world than our wizarding world, and if it’s just Mr. Weasley’s family, I’m afraid…”

“I understand what you mean, Irina,” Tierra said with a smile. “Mr. Weasley’s mission is not the kind of espionage you’re thinking of. It’s just a reward for an employee and the compilation of a travel guide to the Muggle world.”
