Harry Potter: Demon Monarch

Chapter -39.

Who else could have cast so many Killing Curses a decade ago if not a Death Eater serving Voldemort?

Who else, besides the Death Eaters during the Great Chaos, would dare to cast Killing Curses as casually as drinking water?

You must understand, this is an Unforgivable Curse; even a high-ranking Minister of Magic wouldn't risk using so many killing curses at once!

And it's not finished yet; this pureblood Auror, suppressing his fear, kept reading.

[The user of this wand was sentenced to Azkaban for 1000 years by the Wizengamot 10 years ago.]

Pureblood Auror: "."

[Beep! Acquired 100 Fear Points from the Pureblood Auror.]

[Beep! Acquired 100 Fear Points from the Pureblood Auror.]

[Beep! Acquired 100 Fear Points from the Pureblood Auror.]

The pureblood Auror in charge of testing the wand stood there in shock.

After a moment, the pureblood Auror finally regained his composure and shakily pulled out the black wand.

He took a silk handkerchief from his pocket and gently cleaned the black wand.

"Sir, your... here's your wand."

After meticulously wiping it and ensuring the wand was clean, the pureblood wizard respectfully handed the wand back to Lester.

At the same time, he self-awarely removed his own wand from his waist and also offered it to Lester.

Lester: "."

Since he was in front of this pureblood Auror, he couldn't see the screen in front of the Auror at all and had no clue what it displayed.

At that moment, he looked at the pureblood Auror, whose demeanor had completely changed, and felt a bit bewildered.

Didn't you just finish testing the wand and return mine to me?

Why are you also giving me your own wand?

And what's with this fear value that has already filled the screen?

Feeling somewhat confused, Lester instinctively glanced at the screen testing the wand, and then he couldn't look away from it.

On the screen, it clearly stated: "The user of this wand was sentenced to Azkaban for 1000 years by the Wizengamot 10 years ago."

Lester: "."

To be honest, he was genuinely starting to question whether his choice to take Carson as a subordinate was a bit rash.

If he had any sense, he wouldn't use a Death Eater's wand for himself!

"Carson, you wait for me," a flash of anger crossed Lester's eyes, but more was just disbelief.

Carson was now in the same predicament as him; he certainly wouldn't harm himself.

After all, only he could reuse wands from Muggle-born backgrounds, and he had witnessed the darkness within the Ministry of Magic.

So there was no way he would intentionally use a wand to harm himself, which meant he really wasn't thinking clearly.

Although he had imagined killing Carson a hundred times in his mind, Lester still kept a calm demeanor and coolly accepted the two wands handed over by the Auror.

"Alright then!!!!! Stay still; get down and cover your heads, or else don't blame me for my Killing Curse being indiscriminate."

After casually tossing the wand given by the Auror onto the ground, Lester coldly stated, "After all, life is one's own. For 50 Galleons a month, what are you risking your life for?"

"Yes, yes, yes, what sir said is correct," upon hearing Lester instruct him to crouch with his hands on his head, the Auror immediately felt elated and obediently crouched down, showing no signs of resistance.

Being able to escape alone from the most terrifying Azkaban in the magical world and boldly bring the wand used during the crime to the Ministry of Magic, this was undoubtedly a formidable individual! Perhaps he came this time to take revenge for the grudge from ten years ago and to confront the Ministry of Magic alone.

So, it was wiser for him to surrender.

The tall, thin Auror initially wanted to advise Lester to be cautious when he entered after finishing the wand check.

Then he saw his colleague honestly handing over the wand and then crouching down with his hands on his head.

"What are you doing?" The tall, thin Auror looked perplexed and also glanced at the screen displaying the wand check.

"Oh my," upon seeing the extensive records of the Killing Curse usage and the last entry of a 1000-year sentence in Azkaban, the tall, thin Auror couldn't help but curse.

He understood why his usually proud colleague now had such a humble demeanor.

Although supported by family power, since he could become an Auror, the tall, thin Auror was not foolish.

Looking at the extensive records of the Killing Curse, he immediately recalled the major upheaval from over ten years ago.

"Death Eater!" he uttered the term with great trepidation, cautiously glancing at Lester.

When he noticed this formidable individual was also smilingly staring at him, the tall, thin Auror couldn't help but tremble, and he too threw his wand onto the ground not far away, obediently crouching down with his hands on his head.

...

At this moment, the disturbance occurring at the security office immediately drew the attention of other wizards.

After all, to access other floors of the Ministry of Magic, one had to pass through the security office's inspection to take the elevator to other levels.

Originally, it was Monday, and many people were visiting the Ministry of Magic for business, while only two Aurors were responsible for checking wands.

While Lester was negotiating with these two Aurors, the other wizards had already been waiting and were somewhat impatient.

However, out of courtesy, they didn't express their impatience, but from their displeased expressions, it was evident they were very unhappy with Lester's delay.

Now, the two Aurors who were originally in charge of checking wands had actually crouched down with their hands on their heads, which left the wizards waiting for inspection utterly astonished.

It should be noted that these Aurors, who typically guarded the entrance, often looked down on other wizards visiting the Ministry of Magic due to their prestigious backgrounds.

Even the Muggle-born colleagues from other departments would occasionally be ridiculed by them.

However, regardless of the situation, they wouldn't be frightened enough to throw down their wands and directly crouch down like this.

This surprising scene quickly captured the attention of all the wizards in the hall.

Perhaps having felt safe for so long, this group of wizards had no sense of crisis at all, not connecting this incident to a minor attack on the Ministry of Magic, and instead thinking that these two Aurors must have offended some influential figures in the Ministry.

While all the wizards in the hall were focused on Lester and the others, ready to witness the spectacle,

Lester, who had become the center of attention, helplessly shook his head.

He had initially intended to teleport directly into the Auror office for a surprise attack.

But now that he had been exposed, other prisoners would likely teleport over as well, so he would just have to launch a strong offensive.

Lester slowly pointed his wand forward and then turned to all the wizards in the hall, saying, "Now please everyone crouch down with your hands on your heads, the Ministry of Magic has been taken over by us."

The onlookers in the hall: "..."
