Chapter 593 Bella is very busy
After Bella and the others escaped back, they were unexpectedly not punished by Voldemort.
This is certainly related to the fact that he has very few men left.
There were already very few people left. If a few more are punished, morale will plummet, and there will be no subordinates left at all.
Voldemort wasn't afraid of lacking subordinates; he was afraid of jeopardizing his grand plan for revival.
Three days after the incident, Hogsmeade, Diagon Alley, and other wizarding communities were attacked by Death Eaters led by Voldemort himself.
Although the Aurors were already on high alert—
But Voldemort is Voldemort after all.
After wreaking havoc, he released a massive Dark Mark in mid-air and calmly left with the Death Eaters, giving the Aurors no chance to retaliate or capture him.
The war had truly begun.
Wars always start small, like the first two attacks, but once a war begins, it never ends.
Small-scale skirmishes are becoming more frequent.
Sean originally thought that with the Ministry of Magic having achieved several victories and many pure-blood families defecting to become spies, Voldemort should have lost his base of followers in this reality that was completely different from the original story.
Surprisingly, some dark wizards still chose to join him.
This is inextricably linked to history from more than a decade ago.
By then, Voldemort's power had already left an indelible mark on their minds. Now that he had returned, they naturally assumed that Voldemort would not fail again.
Ultimately, it means that once your knees are bent, you can never straighten them up again.
In response to this situation, Sean officially launched Project Riddle.
Night fell over the coastline, and the sea breeze, carrying a salty, damp scent, blew from the boundless Black Sea, crashing against the rocks. The sky was devoid of stars and moon, and the clouds, like a heavy coffin lid, pressed down on this silent world.
A solitary villa stands on the edge of a cliff, its windows tightly shut and all lights off.
But in the dark living room, a figure stood straight.
Voldemort.
He stood motionless in front of the floor-to-ceiling window leading to the terrace, his back to the room.
On the floor, a Death Eater lay prostrate, his body trembling uncontrollably, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold floor, as if he wanted to bury his face between the cracks in the wood.
"You're saying—there's someone using my name to swindle and deceive people?"
Voldemort's whispers instantly lowered the room temperature by several degrees.
"idiot!"
A teacup is coming towards you.
The teacup shattered into pieces, the fragments scattering onto the black carpet, where the tea slowly seeped and spread.
"A bunch of idiots!"
"I can't even tell which one is the real me and which one is the fake one."
The crawling Death Eater shuddered, letting out a low moan, but still dared not raise his head. Even though he knew Voldemort wasn't cursing him, he still didn't dare make the slightest move.
When dealing with this master, being "not the target" does not equate to being "safe".
A few days ago, someone in the underground black market of northern England, calling himself the "Dark Lord," recruited many dark wizards and outlaws who wanted to make a name for themselves.
Voldemort was cursing these dark wizards who couldn't distinguish between the real and the fake.
Indeed, this is absurd:
They can't even tell whose camp they're on.
Voldemort believed this was yet another trap set by the Ministry of Magic.
Raise his banner, and then wipe out all the dark wizards who wanted to join his side.
This prevented him from recruiting dark wizards again.
When he actually recruits dark wizards again, they will be hesitant to act, fearing it might be a second trap set by the Ministry of Magic to achieve the "crying wolf" effect.
This "cutting off the fuel supply" tactic made Voldemort very unhappy.
Who could come up with such a wicked trick?
Fookie?
That idiot is unlikely.
Dumbledore?
Dumbledore might think of such a trick, but he would never use it.
That leaves only one answer:
Sean Phillips.
That despicable guy who's always been against him.
"Go north —"
Voldemort gave the order to Bella, who was standing at the entrance to the hall.
"Kill that charlatan for me—no, I'll go myself."
Voldemort suddenly changed his mind.
Since it was a trap set by the Ministry of Magic, sending Bella would be like throwing good money after bad.
He could no longer afford the consequences of losing one of his key generals.
This matter requires his personal attention.
Since the Ministry of Magic chose to scheme against him, why didn't he choose to turn the tables on them?
Bella breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Voldemort's change of heart.
She's been very busy these past few days.
Even she herself didn't know what she was busy with.
To be precise, it was at the start of the war that Voldemort assigned her a lot of work.
For example, an attack.
However, she basically just took the undercover agents there to put on a show.
Opposite them were the earliest batch of Aurors under Sean's command, who had been promoted at the same time as Bertha.
The two teams met, but there was no fighting, not even a performance.
After clearing the area, they chatted about everyday things.
There wasn't much to talk about, so we just talked about the unpredictable weather in Britain.
Most of the Death Eater spies are from pure-blood families. They are related to the Aurors and ask them to keep an eye on their family estates.
These Aurors knew that these Death Eaters were undercover agents and that they would continue to wield power after the war, so they were happy to do them a favor.
In short, Bella led this group from one film set to another.
I'm so tired and busy, but I don't even know what I'm busy with.
In any case, Voldemort's instructions were mostly perfunctory.
After the meeting ended, Bella returned to her room, preparing to pass on the news that Voldemort was going to the North in person to Sean, but instead received a letter.
A letter from Narcissa.
