Novel Bin Chapter 348: Comrade?
Chapter 348: Comrade?
Birmingham, UK
“So let me get this straight, you refused to act on the report you received from your constable, and instead called for an enquiry on him and went back to talking to your son on the phone?” Tom, in his awesome uniform, as the head of the Police of the entire country, interrogated a Police Captain from Birmingham city.
The one in question was a female cop who had received regular reports of children going missing. And just a week ago, one of the constables working under her reported to her that he was following a kidnapper. The captain in question ordered him back and scolded him to let the cops expert in it handle the case.
The constable argued that he was following the kidnappers, but he was scolded, since the kidnappers had just vanished all of a sudden a moment later. So, he was blamed for falsely reporting a crime and dismissed until the investigation got completed.
The female constable cried, but Tom shrugged, “Don’t think your tears will work now. What you did was criminal negligence, and the kid who got kidnapped was the son of your own city commissioner.
“We got him back, but that proved what you did. One more thing, do you have any proof of from where the 10,000 pounds in your account appeared last month?”
“It was a lottery.” She blurted.
“What a convenient thing to have. You will be charged with criminal negligence and corruption.” He sent her away to be locked in the cells until the court sent her to prison.
Adrian entered and talked, “It’s confirmed. Voldemort is behind this. He’s aiming to get cash. His army was on the brink of revolting against him, so he sent his men to do this instead. A perfect thing to not only get him money but also satisfy the sadistic sick needs of his men. His majesty will be coming here soon.”
“H-His majesty?” Tom’s assistant stuttered.
Tom sighed, “Monty, I already told you about him so many times. And as my assistant, you should not be flustered by powerful people. Your own sister is a witch, boy. This shouldn’t come as a shock to you.”
Monty, a young 24-year-old lad, nodded, “Sir… I just felt a little excited. I will not repeat the mistake.”
*POP*
Magnus portkeyed in, appearing directly inside the police station. He looked around, finding Adrian and Tom, and another man.
“I’ve finished my meeting with the Wizengamot. You have the green light. Tom, I’m afraid at this time you can’t do much other than assist. My Army of Merlin, The Order of the Phoenix, Golden Company and MEDA’s men will start the hunt.
“You are to kill any wizard you find committing a crime. However, if they are minor, I want you to obliviate them for their entire life and send them to Ministry prison. Understood?” He quickly instructed them.
“One more thing, Tom, you will get the achievement credited and push for a higher post, most likely Secretary of State for the Home Department. With this, you shall control law enforcement in England, Zimbabwe and Wales, Matters of National Security, Issues concerning immigration, Oversight of the Security Service (MI5), Prisons and Probation.” Magnus dropped the bomb.
Tom was shocked, he had climbed the ranks so fast, but with his achievements, it made total sense. “I-I will do my duty just and right.”
Magnus nodded and turned to Adrian, “You will be officially named as the person and the agency that helped the Police in securing the country. MEDA from then on will be allowed to hold joint operations with MI5 and MI6.”
Adrian bobbed his head, “Thank you for the help.”
“Great, if you get the news of Voldemort, do not approach. Inform me immediately. Good luck.” Magnus apparated away as he came.
Tom was numb, to be honest. He remembered the day he met Magnus for the first time. In that park, a little lost boy, while he was a new recruit. ~Life sure is strange… in my case, probably crazy on steroids as well.~
…
Magnus returned to the school. It was nighttime. The corridors were empty and menacing. ~The school seriously needs modern lighting and repaint.~ “What do you all think? Should I get the school repainted and put on better lights?” he asked the paintings.
“Yeah, I can use some dusting.” one of the paintings said.
“Of course, it looks like a sex dungeon otherwise. We seriously need a repaint.” Arthur hijacked the painting and spoke through it.
It had been a while since Magnus had talked with him, “How have you been, Arthur? I heard you found a new girlfriend?”
“Yes, she’s a bit fat but there are not many options.” Arthur looked sad.
Merlin also appeared, “That’s because you have already messed with every woman present here. Only the ones that you initially didn’t try are now left.”
“Magnus, why don’t you take us to the french or American school and leave us there?” Arthur blurted out the request.
“Pffft… dream on.” Magnus fastened and left, like hell was he going to help this pervert.
“I’m not a pervert, son. It’s my dragon blood.” Arthur justified his horniness.
Magnus scoffed, “Really? Then why aren’t I or Merlin doing the same?”
Arthur laughed suddenly, “Bwahaha… I don’t know about you but Merlin has also dated nearly 80% of women here already. He’s not too far behind.”
Wide-eyed, Magnus stopped and looked at the two, “Like hell I’m helping you two perverts.”
Merlin, like a saint, quoted, “Son, there is no wrong or right. Accept your blood and just do it, because YOLO.”
“What’s Yolo?” Magnus inquired, his face with creased browed.
“You only live once.” Merlin replied as he caressed his beard.
*Cough* Magnus was taken aback by their shamelessness. Not wasting a moment, he returned to his dorms. But the two portraits followed him. He answered to them, “No thanks, I don’t need YOLO. I am happy with one Emma.”
*SLAP*
Hearing this sound, he looked at the two. They were high-fiving each other and laughing. Confused, he queried. “What was that for?”
Merlin chuckled, “Hehe, boy, we had just come up with a plan. It seems you have not realised what you said. You just confessed to liking Emma.”
Magnus stared at the two deadpan and barked back, “You fools. No shit… I do like her. She’s loyal and damn hot and I would have kissed her already if I… Anyway, I don’t want to impose my crazy life and deadly problems on her. Not before I have secured the world from Voldemort first. Goodnight.”
He jumped on his bed and fell asleep quickly. Merlin and Arthur looked at each other’s faces with a sad and guilty look, feeling that they had given all this sadness to the boy.
…
Soviet Union, Moscow
The Soviet Union was going through an era of stagnation. Their war with America had now started to prove very costly and no matter what, they could not come on top. They were losing their influence and were planning their invasion of Afghanistan.
But, they now had another problem. Out of nowhere, they lost all their influence in South Africa, then in more African nations. Even those that tilted towards communism have now moved away.
After a long investigation, it was found that all evidence led to the British Prince, Magnus.
Regarding this, Leonid Brezhnev, the General Secretary of the Communist Party, called a high-level Party meeting with the important security personnel.
“What are we going to do about it? Recently, we have seen stagnation in our industries as well. Their CEOs have gone missing and all the companies have a new owner on whom we have no control. Countries are falling out of our sphere of influence. This brat… Magnus is the reason. How are you dealing with this, I want to know all.” He angrily shouted at his council members.
The general in charge of the KGB spoke. “Sir, we have compiled a file for him. He is not a normal person, hiding behind that childish face and personality is a ruthless and powerful wizard whom all of the world fears and respects. Our best agent will give us the report now. I sent him to the United Kingdom as soon as he joined the KGB. Comrade Vladimir Putin, you may begin.”
A young dirty-blonde haired boy stiffly stood up from seats beside the wall in the back and started speaking. A hint of fear, determination and dream to rise and one day sit on the seats beside the table was clear in his eyes. But, no one could see it yet.
“General Secretary, Honourable Council Members. I was able to come in contact with a group of men who admired the British Prince. I was able to enter their wizard branch, and from there, I learnt all this from him. [A/N: It’s just a fan club]
“His magical deeds start from the year 1969, when in a burning bus h…”
Vladimir gave his report with straight facts and a detailed timeline of all that Magnus did, it even had the adjacent timeline of all that occurred in muggle world.
Leonid Brezhnev sat back, “Hmm… he’s certainly a dangerous man. The blood of the Merlin must be giving him strength. But we don’t care about what happens in the Wizarding world. What his actions are in the muggle world have come into conflict with our interests.
“Comrade Vladimir Putin, you are to head back to Britain and meet this Prince. Give him a direct warning that if he continues to damage our interests, we will harm his interests back.”
Putin saluted and stepped back to his seat. He was now looking forward to meeting this young Prince… King actually, as he knew what he was doing. He couldn’t help but somewhat admire the boy, as it was no small feat to become the Shadow Emperor. ~I hope we don’t become enemies and can cooperate, King Pendragon.~ he muttered to himself.
But whether it was his enthusiasm for the Soviet Union or his own ambitions, it was unknown.
[A/N: Vladimir Putin joined KGB in 1975. Yes, this is “The” Putin.]
