I swung a sword at Hogwarts

Even Rufus Scrimgeour, who had expected a period of anxiety, was stunned.

"Just one night, and Shafik gave up?"

He scoffed at all the rumors.

No one knew the business run by old vulture Sean Shafik in Knockturn Alley better than him, and that was a sum that the old vulture would never give up.

Then there is only one truth, Shafiq was exiled.

Lord Johnny Silverhand suddenly appeared and exiled Shafik, one of the twenty-eight holy tribes, in just one night.

Rufus Scrimgeour felt that he had to rethink his relationship with Johnny Silverhand.

The new King of Knockturn Alley, Sir Johnny Silverhand, has become a legend.

Chapter 98 Lucius and the Silver Letter

Malfoy Manor.

Lucius Malfoy hasn't been doing well lately.

He threatened the other Hogwarts directors and forced them to sign a notice suspending Dumbledore from his post.

Because of this incident, he was expelled from the school board after Dumbledore returned.

It was bad for the Malfoys, and even worse for the Malfoys' dark magic items.

Almost every ancient pure-blood family has two things, one is a house-elf, and the other is a dark magic prop.

This is the case with the Malfoy family. It can even be said that the Malfoy family, which once followed Voldemort, is full of dark magic props.

Voldemort did not trust the Malfoy family, but because of the ancient family and those dark magic props, he treated Lucius with special favor.

At this moment, the damn Arthur Weasley was keeping a close eye on Malfoy Manor, and Lucius didn't know that his son had revealed the cellar where the dark magic was hidden.

He was really afraid that one day Arthur Weasley would kick down the door of Malfoy Manor and take the entire Malfoy family to Azkaban.

Lucius wanted to sell it, but the Borgin and Burke's antique shop, which was closely related to him, had long gone.

He thought of Sean Shafik; the old vulture must be interested in these things.

But that man was notoriously greedy, and he would lower the price to the point where there was no profit at all, so Lucius considered it for a long time.

But he didn't expect that because of his momentary hesitation, when he went to Shafik's house again, it was empty.

"Damn Weasley, damn Harry Potter!"

Lucius pounded his fist on the stair railing in frustration and anger.

"Get over your temper, Lucius."

When Mrs. Malfoy saw him, Narcissa raised her chin slightly, looking very proud.

"Narcissa, Arthur Weasley will be here any minute."

Lucius was about to vent his anger, but had to hold it back because of his wife's arrival.

I had no choice but to hold on to the railing with my helpless and furious hands.

"You can hide the dark magic prop or sell it, Lucius, don't show cowardice in front of Draco."

Mrs. Malfoy approached Lucius, her eyes falling across the window on her son who was practicing magic there.

She could feel that her son had changed a lot at Hogwarts.

Although he was well-behaved before, he became a crybaby who loved to call his dad because of his parents. Draco is completely different now.

Even a daughter from the eternally pure Black family would become sentimental after becoming a mother.

Narcissa was pleased with Draco's change, and she also comforted her husband.

Lucius was a little annoyed, and he raised his voice a little, saying, "Of course I know, but that Arthur Weasley seemed to know about my warehouse, and he vowed that day that he would make me spend the rest of my life in Azkaban."

"I want to sell my dark magic props now. Borgin and Burke have been arrested and sent to Azkaban, and Sean Shafik, that old vulture, has relocated with his family. I don't know who to look for."

The Malfoy family is not short of money. What he needs is a place to temporarily store his belongings.

The previous Bogin and Boggins was like this. The items sold could be bought back at the original price. This was a tacit understanding between the two families.

Now that Johnny Silverhand's store had taken down Borgin and Burke's, he heard that the people there seemed to be working closely with the Ministry of Magic.

Lucius didn't dare to gamble. If the other party reported him to the Ministry of Magic, he would have to stay in Azkaban and kiss the Dementors every day.

That scene gives me chills just thinking about it.

Narcissa saw his concerns and said, "You have to try. I don't want our son to have a father in Azkaban."

Lucius's expression changed several times.

Just at this moment, a long-eared black owl arrived at Malfoy Manor.

A letter fell on the windowsill. Lucius took a look at it but didn't go over to pick it up.

He subconsciously thought that Dobby the house-elf would pick it up and carefully bring it to him.

However, he had forgotten that Harry had plotted against him. When he realized what was happening, he stomped heavily on the floor with a dark face in revenge.

This is a special letter.

There was no name on the letter, only a black wax seal with a silver handprint on it.

Lucius thought of the current king of Knockturn Alley, Johnny Silverhand.

The logo on this one is the same as the one on the Silverhand Johnny store, and he felt inexplicably nervous.

As soon as I thought of the Silver Hand Johnny store, they sent me a letter.

Although I know it is a coincidence, I can't help but feel a little uneasy.

After opening the letter, his expression changed several times.

Narcissa saw it all. She walked over, picked up the letter and started reading.

Like Lucius, Narcissa became confused and asked, "Do you know Johnny Silverhand?"

Lucius shook his head and said with a strange look: "We have never met."

The couple looked at each other. The letter stated that they were willing to provide a hiding place for the Malfoy family's dark magic props.

Not only that, Sir Johnny Silverhand was also happy to help Lucius return to the position of Hogwarts director.

Each of these things carries risks, so why would Johnny Silverhand be willing to help?

The couple couldn't figure it out. Lucius hesitated and said, "Could it be that he is..."

His lips moved and Lucius looked subconsciously towards his left hand.

Narcissa's face turned grim. As for the Death Eaters, no matter who they were, they would be sent to Azkaban once they were discovered.

Apart from the Death Eaters, Lucius couldn't understand why Johnny Silverhand would help him.

Staring at the letter, the couple fell into deep thought.

Draco Malfoy didn't know that his parents were facing a choice, and at this moment he agreed with John's words very much.

"Only when you are strong, you will be most glorious."

He faced a human-shaped target, as if he thought of it as Harry Potter, and kept casting spells at the target.

After being looked down upon by the team and fired by his father, he completely transformed himself.

Even when Goyle and Crabbe arrived, they only served as sparring partners.

...

The replenishment of the depleted small wizard fund was as painful as if Mundungus was being cut by a knife.

After seeing the power of Johnny Silverhand, the wizards who had previously been reluctant to visit him out of respect for the Shafik family were finally able to do so without hesitation.

In a short period of time, the turnover of the Silver Hand Johnny store increased several times.

Kim Ledislay's brilliant smile never stopped, and the sound of Galleons colliding continued to be heard.

John prepared an office for himself and was sitting inside, holding letters from various parties in his hands.

"Thank you for your hard work, Riddle."

Reaching out and touching the long-eared black owl, John fed it a piece of dried fish.

There were a lot of letters, most of which were from dark wizards in Knockturn Alley asking about the new rules.

Previously, the Shafik family controlled these things, but now that there is a new king, they are very sensible.

Of course, there are some who are not tactful.

At this time, John would give them an offer they could not refuse, such as being sent to Azkaban or being bitten by a werewolf.

These people will soon be quiet.

Before taking action, John would send a letter of condolence to those people.

This letter is also called the Silver Hand Letter. The content of the letter is very simple, just telling them that it is a pity that they cannot become friends, and then there will be a big silver handprint on it.

Anyone who received a letter like this would either come back the next day to make peace or disappear on Knockturn Alley.

Under such shock, everyone knew that Johnny Silverhand was more decisive and ruthless than Sean Shafik before.

A letter from Malfoy Manor caught John's attention and he opened the envelope.

The content inside made the corners of his mouth slightly raise, and he said with a smile: "Lucius Malfoy is a sensible person, but the Death Eaters still need to be handled properly."

I know that Lucius is a Death Eater, but Lucius is not a pure Death Eater.

He was very powerful during Voldemort's period, but after Voldemort's fall, he was the first to distance himself from him and was the most active one.

This is very consistent with Slytherin, following the powerful, being good at calculations, and protecting oneself.

After Voldemort is resurrected, Lucius will return to Voldemort, but he will definitely not be a die-hard fan.

The real Voldemort fans are all in Azkaban, and those outside are at most just minions waving flags and cheering behind the scenes.

“Make good use of this identity.”

John touched his chin. Johnny Silverhand was now a man of some influence.

As a place where John wants to focus his business, he naturally won't just focus on Knockturn Alley.

Diagon Alley is the big place, it's where all the wizards in the country go.

Putting the mask back on, John walked downstairs.

All wizards who see the mask will salute with fear and respect.

This scene also caught the eyes of the Aurors who were monitoring the situation. They knew that a guy who was more troublesome than Sean Shafik had been born.

Chapter 99: Apparition and the Daily Prophet

“The most important thing to remember is the three ‘D’s’: Destination, Determination and Deliberation.

As you do this, keep your attention on the goal, your determination to occupy the space you want, and your movements deliberate.”

Donmi Shelby is a master of the Apparition spell. John estimates that his level is about level 5.

In this deserted jungle, John is learning the Apparition spell.

To be precise, this spell is divided into two parts.

Apparate and Disapparate.

The difference between the two is that one disappears at the starting point and the other appears at the end point.

You must master both steps well, otherwise you will end up with splitting.

Just like now, John was speechless as he looked at his missing ring finger.

"You did a great job. Someone even lost his head while Apparating."

Tang Mi took Baixian to treat John, and the boss's secret mission turned out to be remedial lessons.

Tang Mi felt that if he had not become an Auror, he might have been able to teach at Hogwarts.
