Chapter 276 The Terrible Hufflepuff

[Draco Malfoy: The Traceless Extension Charm is indeed very useful, but I didn't think it was that powerful before, because it is very common here. Our suitcases and tents have this spell, so we didn't pay much attention to it. I didn't expect you to be able to play it to this extent.]

[Gao Wenfeng: Didn't I show you Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them? You wouldn't only care about the magical beasts, would you? Or did you only see Grindelwald's abilities? What really matters in that is the box, the box that holds the magical beasts. That's the most important thing. In your world, people are not allowed to use this ability casually. It's because your wizarding world is independent and each has its own territory. They are worried that other resistance forces will appear in their own territory, so they restrict the use of the Traceless Reach Charm. Otherwise, you wizards wouldn't be like that. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the original residence of your wizards.]

Hogwarts School was originally the castle of the Slytherin family, and was contributed by Slytherin. The castle does not look too big from the outside, it is just the size of a normal castle, but there is a permanent Traceless Extension Charm inside the castle.

This spell is unique to Hufflepuff, and almost every student in Hufflepuff house can perform the Traceless Extension Charm, whether it is temporary or permanent.

They can also cast spells together, which is something only Hufflepuff students can do. Students from other houses don't know these spells. [Gao Wenfeng: I really don't know what you are thinking. Haven't you noticed that the middle-level of the entire wizarding world are all Hufflepuffs? There is no bottom layer in their academy. Those who graduate from Hufflepuff are the backbone of the wizarding world, and everyone has a job in the wizarding world. Haven't you noticed?]

[Draco Malfoy: Is Hufflepuff so powerful? I need to check it out. ]

Draco then began to investigate what the Hufflepuff graduates were doing, and then he discovered that few of the Hufflepuff students were at the top of the wizarding world, but they were all the backbone of the wizarding world.

Almost all businesses in the wizarding world are under their control. Compared with them, other nobles in Slytherin College cannot compare!

If the Malfoy family did not have a dragon farm and a large number of potion farms, their family might not be able to compare with the Hufflepuff business class people, who are really rich.

They are also the wizarding group with the best relations with the secular world. They also have their own industries in the secular world, and they are the most likely to intermarry with Muggle-born wizards.

This resulted in every wizard graduating from Hufflepuff House having two or three children. It can be said that they support the future of the wizarding world.

It’s just that because everyone accepts the rumor that only students who are not accepted by other houses will go to Hufflepuff, no one cares about the power of this house.

Just like if Draco Malfoy hadn’t been reminded by Gao Wenfeng, he would not have discovered that Hufflepuff also has its own wizarding family, and that three or five generations have been in the same college, and their strength is not weak!
This really scared Draco because it was a terrible thing.

“Why hasn’t anyone discovered these things?”

Draco rubbed his temple, he felt a headache.

"What do you care about?"

Lucius saw that his son was a little annoyed and came over to ask. Now Lucius has become rich again, but this time he relies on his son.

"I'm looking at the Hufflepuff student directory."

Draco took the Hogwarts student directory in his hand and showed it to his father. This book is also a best-seller because many people would read it when looking for connections.

"Hufflepuff is a house that only accepts trash. The students there are those unwanted by other houses. Why do you care about them?"

Lucius didn't think there was anything worthy of concern about Hufflepuff. If he really wanted to care, he should go and take a look at Slytherin. The students here were all aristocrats and pure-bloods. They were at the top of the wizarding world from the moment they were born, and it was destined in their bloodline.

You can also go and see Ravenclaw together. The students there support half of the academic field in the wizarding world. The students there are all geniuses. Each of them has his or her own unique skills. They are all real talents.

If all else fails, you can go and take a look at Gryffindor. Although Lucius doesn't like the people there, he has to admit that they are still very powerful, and there is also Dumbledore!
As for Hufflepuff, no one really pays attention to it!
"Just look for yourself, how many people have come out of Hufflepuff, a house you think is useless! Their talents are almost enough to occupy half of the wizarding world!"

"They have people in more than a dozen of the seven major departments of the Ministry of Magic's twenty branches. Although many of them are not the top leaders, they control the real administrative agencies and are in charge of personnel and financial power."

"Almost all of the people in the Department of International Magical Cooperation, except for the director and deputy director, are their people."

"The Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures is directly under their control. It is the second largest agency in the Ministry of Magic. They have complete autonomy in deciding how many people are needed and how many they can assign. Even the cleaners there are family members of Hufflepuff graduates."

"Although the Department of Magical Games and Sports is not a very popular department, nor is it a department with much power, it is one of the seven official departments of the Ministry of Magic!"

"This is not the most important thing. The truly important thing is the Department of Mysteries. Everyone in this department is a top Hufflepuff student! The six internal organizations are all run by Hufflepuffs!"

"That means Hufflepuff controls four of the seven departments of the Ministry of Magic, but you don't care at all. Isn't this scary?"

Draco told him everything he knew, and marked the names of the heads of departments and institutions on the student list. Seeing these names, Lucius felt cold sweat on his back. There were Hufflepuffs in every department of the Ministry of Magic. Before, he thought that Hufflepuffs were a bunch of incompetents, but now he suddenly realized that Hufflepuffs occupied half of the wizarding world!
Because there are Hufflepuffs in Auror Command, Wizengamot, and the Courtroom, and even among the liaisons in the Minister's Office.

This means that if Hufflepuff wants, they can legally get rid of a wizard without alerting anyone.

They can even take action against a member of the Twenty-Eight Sacred Families, as long as the charges are appropriate.

At this moment Lucius was really scared.

"What? Are you scared? Are you terrified? That's just the beginning! There's something even scarier. Look at this. Almost 80% of the shop owners in Diagon Alley are Hufflepuffs. In the past few years, 90% of them have recently joined! Moreover, the financial transactions between them are extremely close. Hufflepuff students are known for being honest and hardworking, and they are doing very well in the Ministry of Magic in European countries!"

"What's Voldemort? What's Dumbledore? Hufflepuff is the real scary one!"

"They don't occupy the upper levels, give up the lower levels, and only occupy the middle levels. However, their networks are intertwined and cover most of the world, but no one cares about them. If someone among them dares to raise his arms and shout loudly and convinces the public, nearly half of the magic departments in Europe will stand with that person. By then, I think we will be able to do things like European integration faster than the secular world!"

Can it be faster?

Nearly half of the Ministries of Magic in Europe have Hogwarts students, and the largest number of these students are Hufflepuffs. As long as they have a leader-like figure, he can immediately unite everyone with a wave of his arm, and then the entire wizarding world will see a new change.

"Father, think about what you were doing back then. You drove out those Muggle wizards and told those half-blood wizards not to be with you, but you didn't realize that the place with the most Muggle wizards, half-blood wizards and low-level wizards was never Gryffindor, but Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw."

Draco Malfoy looked at the information in his hand. He didn't expect that Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff were together. He discovered this after looking at the marriage records of many Hogwarts students.

Gryffindor and Slytherin never interact with each other, but they have connections with the other two major houses.

The most closely connected are Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, with a marriage status union of nearly 50%.

The remaining 50% is the relationship with other colleges and people within one's own college. It can be said that Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff are an iron alliance.

"Then why didn't they seize power? With so much power, wouldn't it be better for them to just seize it directly?"

When Lucius looked at what was revealed on the Hogwarts student list, he felt his scalp tingling. Since he had such strong power, why didn't he just seize the power?
"Because it's troublesome, because they are afraid of death, because once they get their hands on power, they won't be able to unite. If you want to make a group disunited, it's very simple. Give them money, give them power, and they will fight each other to death."

Draco looked at the list and understood it clearly. This was how the civil service system overruled everything. It didn't matter what happened to you guys, the civil service was ours anyway.

"You can take a closer look. What is the difference between them now and those who have power? If there is any difference, it is that they don't need to take the blame when something happens. The ones who take the blame are the ministers, directors, and those who openly hold power! And where is the real power? It is in their hands. Therefore, they are the real uncrowned kings. No matter who comes to power, no one will attack them, unless the leader is a madman, and Voldemort is a madman, so he was defeated by so many people. Do you really think that there is only one Order of the Phoenix fighting Voldemort? Where do they get the intelligence, resources, and logistical support? Isn't it supported by the Ministry of Magic? And why does the Ministry of Magic support them? Isn't it because Hufflepuff doesn't want that madman to come to power?"

Lucius immediately fell to the ground. "That is to say, it was not only the Order of the Phoenix that fought against us, but also the Ministry of Magic that had already surrendered to us."

"The Ministry of Magic has never submitted to you. You just arranged a minister to take the position. But a minister is nothing but a puppet. When he is obedient, he is the minister. When he is disobedient, he will die in an unknown way. He may be poisoned to death by drinking a sip of whiskey at work, or he may be protected by a large number of Aurors and have a brain hole. He may also be hit with a dozen killing curses and then be said to have committed suicide. These things are very simple!"

Is it simple? It is very simple, but no one would have noticed it before, because those who discovered it would think that Hufflepuffs are really a group of very suitable subordinates. They are born to be subordinates to themselves, not to be equal to themselves.

"Stop talking, what you said is a bit scary!"

Lucius felt the hair stand on end just by listening to it, but Draco just smiled. This kind of thing was too normal. Then he uploaded what he found to the chat group.

[Draco Malfoy: I discovered something very important. The Hufflepuffs are so versatile. None of them has any outstanding features, but the most outstanding thing about them is that they have no weaknesses. No one has any weaknesses. Their strengths are too average. There are no names of them in the Potions Master and Magic Master, but there must be people like them in the second echelon. It's really scary! ]

[Gao Yuliang: This is normal. You have to know that the limit of what ordinary people can achieve is the position where geniuses have just started. Is it because they don’t work hard? No, it’s because they don’t have enough talent. Hufflepuffs are a group of ordinary people. They may perform very well in other places, but they are not so good in a place where a group of geniuses gather. However, they are united enough, just like the civil government of the Ming Dynasty, which can decide the selection of the emperor and the prince! ]

[Zhu Houzhao: Can you please stop saying such things? The Ming Dynasty has not yet fallen to that point, at least it will never be like this when I am here. Now the civil servants have been trained like dogs by me! ]

[Zhu Youjian: But in my place, the civil servants can decide everything. I have already started to purge the civil service system. They all participated in the poisoning of Emperor Tianqi. It was the Qingliu and the eunuch party who participated together. They joined forces to kill Emperor Tianqi! ]
