Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 376 Chapter 370. The Movements of the Death Eaters

In a mansion somewhere in England, Death Eaters wearing black hoods gathered together in a circle, but there was no sign of Voldemort here.

Not long after, another hooded Death Eater pushed open the door.

"Lucius, how is the task assigned to you by the master going?"

The new Death Eater was Avery. He was the first to speak as soon as he came in, keeping his eyes on Lucius as he spoke.

"Did the master ask you to come here and ask me?"

Lucius glanced at the other person lightly. He was the only one among all the Death Eaters present who was not wearing a hood.

"No, I just"

"Then this has nothing to do with you, Avery, just do your own thing."

Lucius said coldly, the civilized staff in his hand tapping the ground rhythmically: "If you are only looking for me today for this reason, then I don't think there is anything to talk about."

Avery hit a soft nail here with Lucius, and his face was slightly ugly. He wanted to get angry, but he endured it after considering what was going to happen next.

After the two were silent for a while, Avery still said uncontrollably.

"Lucius, I don't think we are enemies. You know, it won't be long before the master releases 'them', and then your life and mine will definitely not be as easy as they are now."

What Avery refers to is the group of Death Eaters in Azkaban. Currently, the Death Eaters can be divided into two factions, with Lucius and Avery as their respective representatives, but once Azka waits... If those lunatics in the class are released, this situation will be broken.

This is also the purpose of Avery coming to Lucius today.

He came to reconcile and to seek allies.

The Death Eaters in Azkaban are all die-hard Voldemort. They are quite extreme and stubborn. Otherwise, they would not have shouted "Long live the Dark Lord" when they were caught. In addition, in Azkaban Caban has been imprisoned for more than ten years, and only God knows how extreme he will become now.

Cruelty is synonymous with them, and killing is a common occurrence for them.

Most of the wizards who resisted Voldemort were dealt with by these people, such as the Longbottoms, Mrs. Weasley's two brothers Fabian and Gideon Prewett, and Professor McGonagall's younger brother. Robert McGonagall Jr. (who was innocently killed).

You could say these people are Voldemort's dirty gloves.

Voldemort didn't know much about what happened back then, but how come the Death Eaters who were imprisoned in Azkaban Prison didn't know how Lucius and the others got into trouble?

In order to clean themselves up, so much dirty water was poured on these people, even the wizards who died of natural causes were blamed on them.

They originally thought that these people would be imprisoned in prison until their death, but they didn't expect that the dead Dark Lord came back and wanted to free his servants.

The first thing that group of lunatics did when they came out was definitely to cause trouble for Avery and those officials back then.

Of course, Lucius's consequences for adding insult to injury would not be any better than theirs. This is why Lucius came here today.

How could he come here if he had nothing to do with him.

"We were never enemies, Avery."

After hearing Avery's words, Lucius immediately expressed his stance: "I have never regarded you as an enemy. Our purpose is the same, to better serve the master."

"That's right, it's all for the master."

Avery said this, but he kept cursing secretly in his heart.He is indeed the 'eloquent' Lucius. He can speak such things with righteousness and justice, and he can speak life and death to him.

Don't you regard me as your enemy?The dog didn't believe it. This was not the first time that he put on small shoes for me in front of his owner.

Almost every time, it was 'I messed up and you took care of it'. If it weren't really a mistake on his part, Avery would have suspected that the other party had set a trap for him.

Fortunately, if the other party stands on your side in the future,
"Well, Lucius, look"

"No rush, no rush."

"As long as you are willing to obey my arrangements, leave this matter to me. I can assure you that even if those people come back, you will be safe."

Lucius doesn't want allies, he has a huge appetite and he wants them all.

In fact, Lucius appeared as one of the first few Death Eaters in the past, otherwise he would not have become one of the only two Death Eaters to obtain custody of Horcruxes.

Avery's expression was obviously unwilling.

What he wants is to be the leader, not the little brother who stands behind others and shouts.

"Avery, you have to think clearly that once those lunatics come back and they want to liquidate you, the master will not stop them."

Normally, they could completely ignore the madmen in Azkaban. Even if those people came out, they could not do anything to them, because Voldemort needed them and needed the power of the Ministry of Magic, but it was completely different now.
This group of former Ministry of Magic officials had been arrested and lost power because of Voldemort's call. Now they even needed to rely on Lucius's connections to arrange manpower at the Ministry of Magic.

What you have is just a layer of skin that maintains the shiny surface.

It's just that they didn't dare to ask Voldemort for an explanation on these matters. Voldemort didn't care about the life or death of useless wizards.

If you give them a little more time, they can still crawl back slowly.

It's just that at this juncture, the thugs from Azkaban are coming back.
Avery shuddered unconsciously when he thought of this.

"Lucius, we agree to your request, but can you really protect all of us? You should know the methods of those people, I'm worried."

"You don't need to worry about the rest. You just need to answer whether I accept or reject. You should know that only I, Lucius, have this ability and the qualification to say this."

Lucius raised his head and glanced at the sky: "It's getting late, I still have to complete the task assigned to me by the master."

At the end, he added: "Don't forget, we are one."

The Death Eaters were originally divided into radicals (militant faction) and conservatives. With the fall of Voldemort, the radicals were arrested, and these conservatives collectively chose to protect themselves wisely. Over time, some of them disappeared, and the remaining It has also been divided into many, and now even if it is united, it will just return to its original state.

There are no eternal enemies, only interests that last forever.

"My representative agrees to your request"

After hearing Avery's words, Lucius smiled for the first time and stretched out his right hand towards the other party.

"Welcome back, my friend."

The two hands are tightly clasped together.
