Journey through the Worlds from the Wilderness

Chapter 373 The Oath
The sincerity Scrimgeour asked for was very simple, an unbreakable oath. As long as this ancient oath spell was carried out for a long time, a solid foundation for cooperation could be laid, ensuring that both parties could work together to fight against Voldemort's attempt to reign terror in the wizarding world. .

An unbreakable oath, using life as a bargaining chip to supervise the swearer's fulfillment of the oath content, unless the oath is fulfilled, he will always urge the swearer to work hard for the oath, otherwise he will be cursed to take his life.

As elites in the magic world, everyone in the Order of the Phoenix naturally knows this, and it is precisely because of this that they hesitate. After all, it is completely equivalent to handing over their lives. Even the most fearless people must think carefully about this kind of choice before making it. out of options.

Rufus Scrimgeour's words were indeed very sincere, at least Gao Feng felt his sincerity, after all he could understand how powerful Scrimgeour was through his 'false memory', but now Scrimgeour would rather be To withdraw and make concessions, it is also necessary to ensure that the two sides can form an alliance smoothly.

Speaking of which, there have always been conflicts between Dumbledore and Scrimgeour's ideas. Compared with Dumbledore's friendly attitude towards Muggles and half-blood wizards, Scrimgeour pays more attention to the purity of wizards. He believes that the world of wizards should remain mysterious. The affairs of wizards must be kept within the wizarding world. For half-blood wizards and Muggles, they should take precautions and make corresponding plans.

But at this moment, when the wizarding world is facing the dark clouds of Voldemort's terror, Scrimgeour can take the initiative to put aside his prejudices and negotiate an alliance with Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix, which shows that he is a tough but flexible person.

"Why are you still hesitating? Don't tell me you have no sincerity at all?" The reliable Aurora Lux spoke in a deep voice, as honest as he was, but there was a questioning tone in his words at the moment.

"Hmph! If we are not sincere, even if you represent the British Ministry of Magic, you will never see our true colors!" 'Mad Eye' snorted coldly.

Then he glanced sideways at Remus Lupine, and then at Arthur Weasley. As for Nymphadora Tonks, although he was still a member of the Order of the Phoenix, 'Mad-Eye' only looked fearfully at him. After glancing at Gao Feng, he glanced away, which made Tonks a little dissatisfied when he noticed this, and grabbed Gao Feng's thigh under the negotiating table.

"In that case, how do you guys agree with my proposal? Or do you need Dumbledore to make the final decision?" Scrimgeour frowned slightly, straightened up and pressed his hands on the table. There was a strong pressure on the person, and he said with a somewhat impatient expression.

Remus Lupine and 'Mad Eye' Alastor Moody looked at each other, Arthur Weasley nodded slightly, and finally Remus Lupine looked at Scrimgeour, nodded: "Any cooperation The foundation is enough trust, if it can make you feel at ease, Mr Scrimgeour, I will first express my willingness to conclude an unbreakable oath."

"Very good!" Scrimgeour's eyes brightened slightly, and a slight smile appeared on his indifferent face.

Although 'Mad-Eye' Moody was a little dissatisfied, he turned his head and snorted softly: "I hope you are really trustworthy, alright! I can accept it too!"

Seeing this peak, let go of the doubts in his heart for the time being, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, although there are still some obstacles lying in the middle, the situation in front of him has already met his expectations.

He glanced at Scrimgeour with deep meaning in his eyes, but what he focused on was not Rufus Scrimgeour, the current Minister of Magic who is ruthless and tough, but one of his ears Black Auror with gold earrings.

This black Auror gives people the feeling of a calm lake, sitting there quietly with a refined and tranquil temperament. This wizard is Kingsley Shacklebolt, who holds the position of Auror in the Ministry of Magic, and is also the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Secretary, who bears the important responsibility of communication between the wizarding world and the Muggle world.

From this point of view, this Auror should naturally be the natural patron of the Ministry of Magic, but this is not the case. This Auror, who has a great reputation in the Ministry of Magic and the Auror Office, is secretly a follower of Dumbledore. , is an important member of the Order of the Phoenix.

In addition, the members of the Order of the Phoenix present are only a small part of its true composition. As the most secretive organization in the magic world, the members of the Order of the Phoenix spread across many fields of the magic world, and even the Muggle world has its tentacles, such as the one in the original book. Mrs. Arabella Figg is a member of the Order of the Phoenix that Dumbledore arranged to watch Harry Potter near the Dursleys.

There are also professors in Hogwarts, many of whom joined the Order of the Phoenix, such as Professor Minerva McGonagall, the vice-principal of Hogwarts and a member of the Order of the Phoenix.

Of course, we cannot ignore Severus Snape, this infatuated man who was bound to the love he missed when he was a boy for life, and the double agent who worked around the two legendary wizards Voldemort and Dumbledore. Member of the Order of the Phoenix.

Of course, it is true that the Order of the Phoenix has some reservations, and Scrimgeour has by no means revealed all his cards, even if he has shown great sincerity.

As the new minister of the Ministry of Magic, and an experienced Auror himself, Scrimgeour has measured the limit of the alliance with the Order of the Phoenix, and the root of the alliance is to gather forces against Voldemort and his Death Eaters minions, for the sake of Eliminate external troubles instead of eradicating internal troubles, especially a mysterious organization like the Order of the Phoenix that has not yet become a disaster.

It is precisely because of this that Scrimgeour will make concessions in the competition for the important position of commander, otherwise, according to his strong character, even if the competitor is the great Albus Dumbledore, it is impossible to let him Change the rules you stick to.

"In that case, let's celebrate the happy cooperation." Scrimgeour showed a rare smile, but it didn't look very stiff on his face as hard as a rock.

"This is an oath I personally drafted, please read and review." Scrimgeour glanced sideways at Dawlish, who immediately took out a stack of thin parchment and handed it to him. Scrimgeour waved the parchment towards the As they moved away, the parchments floating in mid-air spread out automatically, 'handing' each member of the Order of the Phoenix.

Gao Gao glanced at the 'leaflet' received by Nymphadora Tonks, read it ten lines at a glance, and nodded secretly in his heart.

The writing on the parchment is almost the same as what he expected, emphasizing the reason for cooperation, and at the same time, on the basis of cooperation, cleverly avoiding some things involving the other party's secrets, all confirming the loose appearance of this alliance The following seek common ground while reserving differences.

To put it simply, no matter what, everyone is trying to eradicate Voldemort and his Death Eater followers. It doesn't matter what is hidden behind this common purpose, as long as you contribute and contribute, it will be fine.

This may seem unreliable, but in fact it is the perfect critical point for cooperation between the two parties.

So facing such a 'vow', the Order of the Phoenix naturally had no reason to refuse.
