I swung a sword at Hogwarts

"Then you won't be able to accomplish America's feat either." Root regained his calm diplomat image, stared at John and said, "The rules of this world don't work like that."

"You can destroy Washington, and even take over the corpse-strewn area with wizards."

"But every country, including your allies, will no longer have any dealings with you. Instead, they will organize themselves and declare war on wizards."

"Because we see your brutality." Root said, "You can promise to be friendly with other countries, which means that wizards do not want to become enemies of humans."

"Respected Witch King," Lute said calmly, "I understand your anger. Death is just death. It cannot create anything."

Real diplomacy is about making the benefits and harms clear, inviting with benefits and forcing with harm!

John looked at Ruth with admiration in his eyes.

This person is a good diplomat and also has insight into his own thoughts.

Yes, John will not destroy Washington.

To be precise, he wouldn't do that unless he was ready to restart the world.

If a monster that can destroy Washington appears, then all the people in the world will unite and kill that monster.

This is the heart of the people.

Even countries that have already agreed to make friendly relations are waiting and watching their attitude.

They allow wizards to have powerful weapons, but they cannot let wizards lose people's hearts.

Killing millions of people at once is not something a human can do.

Then they will turn their guns and aim at the existence called wizards.

Behavior that is too extreme will make it impossible for wizards to coexist on the opposite side.

What John needed was to inflict pain on this most powerful country and make it make concessions.

The Dragon of Destruction is a magical nuclear weapon, and its deterrent power lies in the existence of the dragon.

"You're right. It's easier to die than to create," John said. "And I don't want to rebuild."

This was a relief.

The president looked at Rutte with gratitude.

Ruth also felt a little relieved that he had made the right bet.

The pressure on a diplomat who is appointed in times of crisis is no less than that on the president. His every word and action represents the lives of millions of people behind him.

Now that we know it's not coming for destruction, it opens up a gap in negotiations.

He said: "America will not interfere with the continued development of wizards. This is a concession we have made."

Those wizards in America have become a hot potato, and even if they want to take action against them, they would not be as blatant as Francis.

"Not enough," John said, shaking his head. "These chips are not enough."

The bankers on the world stage are still Muggles. John is the banker for the time being, and he must get conditions that are favorable enough to the wizards.

"America needs to permanently recognize the autonomy and independence of the magical kingdom and not persecute the citizens of the magical kingdom."

John snapped his fingers again, and the surrounding scenery turned back into the manor.

He said: "It is truly recognized in the form of a country."

"Anyone who uses magic will be a citizen of the magical kingdom."

His request was not excessive, but it was embarrassing.

...

Chapter 786 Then I Am Your God

Anyone who uses magic is a citizen of the wizarding world?

John wanted to use this clause to protect wizards who were born into Muggle families in the future.

He understood that it was impossible to expect these people to completely give up on wizards.

In that case, he wanted to provide a layer of insurance for Muggle wizards.

After a Muggle wizard uses magic, he or she will automatically become a citizen of the magical kingdom and enjoy the protection of the magical kingdom.

When Ruth heard this request, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.

The Witch King is reasonable, but the President is different.

His expression was solemn, because after seeing the abilities of wizards, the creation of such troops had already been included in the plans of various countries.

If a wizard is born in an American family, receives American education and grows up, it is not impossible for him to find an opportunity to be trained as an American wizard in the future.

But facing the crisis at hand, he must be cautious.

John was not in a hurry. He glanced at the time and said casually, "One more minute."

The two of them looked at their pocket watches belatedly and saw that there was only one minute left.

There isn't much time left.

"We must promise him." Ruth looked at the president anxiously.

"No, he doesn't dare to destroy Washington." The president still wanted to take a gamble at this time.

As long as it doesn't destroy Washington.

Ruth was anxious, even though the Witch King said he agreed with what he said.

But no one knows the actual idea.

A rash decision will only push the whole world into darkness.

Who knows if the Witch King is just talking.

Ruth looked up at John, and saw that the young Witch King was neither hurried nor slow, and even reached out to take a cup of black tea.

There are only thirty seconds left.

The president was still holding on, and Rutte was getting anxious.

"Never mind those damn things. We need to protect the American people!" Root roared, "Once the place behind us is destroyed, America will be divided again!"

He stood up, grabbed the president by the collar, and said to him viciously: "Do you want to be a sacrifice to witness the power of the Witch King?"

This action finally made the president wake up.

What matters is not the future, but the present.

He looked at his pocket watch and saw that the time had come to the last ten seconds.

The white around them was getting brighter and brighter, about to swallow them up.

"I promise!"

Just as the white light was about to engulf them, the president relented.

He said, "I am willing to recognize the magical kingdom and my citizenship of that country."

The pocket watch ticked to the last second.

Just as the second hand was about to jump over, time stopped.

Then, the pocket watch began to move backwards.

John smiled and said, "That's a good choice."

The pocket watch went back to three minutes and then froze.

John raised an eyebrow and said, "Now let's talk about something else."

"it's not finished yet?"

Ruth really wanted to exclaim "Oh no!"

His understanding of wizards only began today.

Speaking of which, he didn't understand why wizards, with such powerful strength, had never thought of ruling the world in the past.

After all, with the power of the Dragon of Destruction, in the era of cold weapons, it would be easy to unify the world, let alone destroy it.

John then offered suggestions on how the wizarding world and the Muggle world can coexist.

This time they are doing real diplomacy.

A diplomacy of equals.

Ruth understood that he could not underestimate anyone, especially the one who could destroy everything and had terrifying wisdom.

Having the president by your side means that everything is decided by America.

Suddenly, Ruth noticed that the time on the pocket watch did not move.

He was sure that the negotiation would last more than an hour.

They were still inside the manor, and even the ray of sunlight coming in from outside had not changed.

Is this world frozen in time?

This existence called the Witch King is full of mystery.

America promised to join other nations in officially recognizing the existence of the magical kingdom at the United Nations Congress.

It’s just that this existence is like a mystery.

John didn't want the wizarding world to be out of touch with the Muggles, but he also didn't want them to be influenced too much.

"I want to know about the magic crystal, Witch King." The president suddenly spoke.

When Root heard that he dared to mention this thing that almost ruined the fate of America, he became anxious.

But the president was not entirely mediocre. He stared at John and asked, "Is that thing really clean energy?"

"Are you curious?" John chuckled. "I can tell you the answer, but you need to tell me what you think, Mr. President."

"I will not hide it. If it is true, the American government is willing to purchase magic crystals from the magic kingdom for use as energy," the president said with a gleam in his eyes. "Even wizards need to develop their economy."

"You surprise me, Mr. President." John nodded and said, "The essence of magic crystal is the physical form transformed by magic."

"It's always been said that it's stable and pollution-free, but..." John said meaningfully, "Are you sure you want to use this thing?"

The president thought for a moment and nodded vigorously, "I hope it can be used."

"Well, we'll get in touch again in the future," John said with a smile, "First of all, the price is not low."

As the main export commodity of the magical kingdom, if it is not processed by wizards, all that is obtained is a slow-acting poison that will corrode Muggle items.

John didn't mind a little magical wonder in the Muggle world, but he didn't need too much.

"You said we could have this conversation calmly from the beginning. How great." John said with emotion.

This was embarrassing for the president.

But he didn't know that his extra confidence was given to him by John.

Looking at the whole incident, apart from the heavy losses suffered by the American side, basically no one among the wizards was harmed.

No, there is one.

The martyr voluntarily died at the feet of the Witch-king.

"I think we'll meet again soon."

John had a mysterious smile on his face.

The sunlight outside grew brighter and brighter, finally covering the president and Rutte.

It was as if they were dreaming that they fell down the stairs while sleeping, their bodies twitched, and there were noisy noises in their ears.

"Mr President!"

The president could feel his body being touched in various ways. He opened his eyes and saw more than a dozen nervous faces in front of him.

"I am..."

There was confusion in his eyes, and Ruth also woke up.

The two of them lay on the ground, causing pain in their backs.
