Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord.

Seeing the two people ahead looking excited, Wentworth and Hagrid exchanged a glance, shrugged, and Hagrid said to Wentworth:

"I have something to do. Why don't you go with them to buy wands first?"

Wentworth quickly nodded in agreement.

A moment later, the three arrived together at Ollivanders Wand Shop in Diagon Alley. Draco Malfoy familiarly pushed open the door and called out:

"Is anyone here? Quickly find the best wand for my good friend Harry Potter! I'll pay for it!"

Wentworth instinctively touched his face with his hand again and took a step away from Draco Malfoy.

Just then, Ollivander, who happened to be walking out after hearing the door open, heard Draco Malfoy's voice and looked at Harry Potter with surprise, saying:

“Oh, I’ve been wondering when I’ll be able to see you, Mr. Potter.”

At this point, Ollivander glanced at Draco Malfoy again and said to him:

“I remember telling you, Mr. Malfoy, it is the wand that chooses the wizard!”

Finally, Ollivander turned his gaze to Wentworth, a smile playing on his lips, and said:

"Looks like that wand works really well with you, doesn't it!"

Wentworth smiled and nodded in response.

Chapter 164 Shocked Lucius

After greeting all three, Ollivander began searching through his wand shop. Just like in the original story, Harry Potter found his destined wand, which, together with Voldemort's wand, formed the "Chopsticks Brothers."

Just as Harry Potter was admiring his wand, the doorbell rang again at Ollivanders wand shop. Everyone turned around and saw a middle-aged man in an elegant suit, but with a pale face, walk in.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Draco Malfoy immediately called out:

"Father, I'm here!"

The visitor was none other than Lucius Malfoy, Draco Malfoy's father.

Lucius Malfoy glanced at his son, then turned his gaze to Wentworth. He immediately recognized the boy as the Hogwarts student whom Dumbledore had taken to watch the Quidditch World Cup last year.

"Hello Wentworth, it's been a year, you've grown so much!"

Lucius Malfoy smiled and said to Wentworth.

Although he was dissatisfied with many of Dumbledore's actions, Lucius Malfoy was still wary of Dumbledore's power. Therefore, the cunning Lucius Malfoy still showed friendliness to the young man who was clearly Dumbledore's favorite student.

At this moment, Draco Malfoy, holding Harry Potter's hand, walked to his father's side and said excitedly:

"Father, let me introduce you. This is my new friend, Harry Potter! That Harry Potter!"

Upon hearing his son's introduction, Lucius Malfoy showed a hint of surprise and said to Draco Malfoy:

“Well done, Draco! You two can definitely become good friends! Harry, about you…”

Just as Lucius Malfoy was about to say something more to Harry Potter, Hagrid's voice suddenly came from outside the door:

"Harry, come and see what I bought for you!"

Harry Potter's gaze was immediately drawn to the cage Hagrid was carrying, inside which stood a majestic white owl.

As it turns out, Hagrid truly possesses a talent for choosing animals that others lack; even the well-traveled Draco Malfoy was captivated by this snow-white owl.

Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy ran together toward Hagrid, examining the owl in the cage with great interest.

Just as Wentworth and Lucius Malfoy nodded and turned to leave, Lucius Malfoy suddenly called out to them.

"Please wait a moment, Wentworth!"

Wentworth turned around, somewhat puzzled, and looked at Lucius behind him.

Lucius slowly walked over, scrutinized Wentworth, and said:

“I remember you once said, Wentworth, that you also came from a pure-blood family. However, in the past year, I have asked all the pure-blood families in Europe, and it seems that there is no one of your age named Wentworth. So, I am very curious, which country are you a pure-blood wizard?”

Hearing Lucius Draco's words, Wentworth felt a surge of annoyance, but remained composed as he said:

"Mr. Malfoy, you seem quite interested in me?!"

Then, before Lucius Malfoy could speak, Wentworth continued:

"But are you sure you've inquired with all the pure-blood families in Europe? For example, the Grindelwald family!"

When Lucius heard Wentworth mention the Grindelwald family, he immediately froze, his already pale face draining of all color.

Seeing this, Wentworth's lips curled up slightly, as if in a mischievous manner, and he said to Lucius Malfoy, word by word:

"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Wentworth Grindelwald!"

As he spoke, Wentworth extended his right hand to Lucius Malfoy.

Seeing this, Lucius Malfoy, in a panic, dropped his cane and, somewhat trembling with fear, grasped Wentworth's right hand with both hands, saying:

"Lucius Malfoy, it is an honor to meet the leader of the Malaist Party!"

"Since you're here, then what about the British Ministry of Magic last year..."

Before Lucius Malfoy could finish speaking, Wentworth withdrew his right hand and continued:

"That's right, it was done by our UMNO party. If someone makes a mistake, they should be punished. Does Mr. Malfoy have a different opinion?"

Lucius Malfoy shook his head repeatedly, saying:

"Of course not! I think you're absolutely right! I've long believed that some people in the British Ministry of Magic are simply not fit to be in their current positions!"

Just then, Draco Malfoy walked in and, seeing Wentworth and Lucius Malfoy chatting happily, couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Father, what are you and Wentworth talking about?"

Upon hearing Draco Malfoy's words, Lucius Malfoy immediately put on a stern face and said:

"Draco! How could you..."

But before Lucius Malfoy could finish speaking, Wentworth interrupted him, saying:

"Your father sent me to Hogwarts to take care of you, so you must listen to me, Draco!"

Upon hearing Wentworth's words, Lucius Malfoy paused, then smiled and said:

"That's right, that's exactly it!"

Seeing this, Draco Malfoy pouted somewhat displeased and said:

"But I..."

Before Draco could finish speaking, Lucius immediately frowned and said to Draco:

"What? You have a problem with what I said?"

Upon seeing this, Draco immediately replied:

"No, Wentworth was already my friend, and now he's my senior. I'm happy to be here!"

Hearing this, Lucius nodded in satisfaction.

Just then, Harry Potter called out from outside:

"I'm going to buy textbooks, are you guys coming?"

Upon hearing Harry Potter's voice, Draco seemed to remember something and quickly said to Lucius:

“Father, today is Harry Potter’s birthday. Hagrid said that Wentworth has prepared a birthday cake for Harry at home. I’d like to go too. What do you think?”

Upon hearing Draco's question, Lucius immediately looked at Wentworth, only to find that Wentworth had already walked towards the door.

Lucius pondered for a moment, then nodded heavily and said:

"Of course! Remember to buy them a birthday present; it's a matter of etiquette, don't embarrass the Malfoy family!"

"Also, tomorrow you will go to the station with Wentworth and Harry. Your mother and I will be there with the things you need for school."

As he spoke, Lucius pulled out a wad of Galleons from his pocket and handed it to Draco, watching Wentworth and the others leave Ollivander's wand shop.

Chapter 165 Conversation at Malfoy Manor

Soon, Wentworth, Harry Potter, and the others bought all the things they needed for the new school term in Diagon Alley, and then, led by Hagrid, they returned to Wentworth's residence.

"Is this where you live in Wentworth? It doesn't look very nice! I thought you would at least live in a manor!"

As soon as Draco Malfoy entered, he spoke to Wentworth with an air of arrogance.

That evening, the group held a modest birthday party for Harry Potter at his Wentworth residence, which deeply moved him.

However, while Wentworth and the others were celebrating Harry Potter's birthday, Lucius Malfoy was sitting silently opposite his wife Narcissa at Malfoy Manor.

After a long while, Narcissa finally spoke hoarsely to Lucius:

"You just stood by and watched as the Grindelwald family took Draco away?!"

Faced with his wife's questioning, Lucius, though showing a hint of impatience, patiently explained:

"That boy's name is Wentworth. Never mention his last name in front of outsiders. Now that I think about it, Dumbledore must have put a curse on him during the Quidditch World Cup final, which is why everyone forgot to ask about his last name. Dumbledore was intentionally hiding it for him."

"As for Draco, he went of his own volition; no one forced him to go! Besides, I think it might not be a bad thing for Draco to have some prior contact with the leaders of the UMNO party, right?"

In response to Lucius's reply, Narcissa, still looking worried, said:

"But you know that the Ulquiorra are a bunch of lunatics! A bunch of insane dark wizards! They'll stop at nothing to achieve their goals! Aren't you afraid that Draco might become one of their pawns?"

Upon hearing this, Lucius remained silent for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Perhaps, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let Draco choose to join the Bastard Party!"

Seeing Narcissa looking at him with a shocked expression, Lucius immediately explained:

"Why did we choose Voldemort back then? Simply put, two reasons! First, he was powerful enough. Second, his advocacy of pure-blood supremacy aligned with our interests!"

"Now, the UMNO party has made a comeback. They have the same strength, and their idea of ​​completely destroying the International Law on the Secrecy of Wizardry and allowing wizards to rule the world is also in our interest!"

"You know, before the International Wizarding Secrecy Act was enacted, our Malfoy family had very close ties with the Muggle nobles! If the wizarding world can be reunited with the Muggle world, our Malfoy family will definitely rise to a higher level!"

By the end, Lucius's originally pale face even flushed red, showing unusual excitement and agitation.
