The Wagadu Magic Academy on Uganda's Moon Mountain was a magnificent building shrouded in mist on the mountainside of the "equatorial snow mountain" with the scorching equatorial sun above its head. It looked like it was floating in the air.
At this time, in the Moon Mountain, in a huge brown steeple thatched house in Wagadu, which had a history of at least a thousand years, emerald green vines drilled out from the ground. The branches intertwined and grew into the shape of tables and chairs, undulating like waves in the room. The rostrum in the center was composed of a wide tree stump and carefully planted vines. It was far higher than the other plant tables and chairs. If attacked, these vines would turn into a shield to protect the speaker on the rostrum.
The members of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards gathered here. Although the weather was hot and there were many people in the room, the thatched cottage was made of magic plants that could adjust the temperature and make the room cool and comfortable. It also blocked the stench of the beautiful Dai Shengniao on the roof.
At this time, it was the meeting site of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards. At this time, the seats were full of wizard representatives from various countries. Their hands of different colors were raised high in the venue, and the sleeves of their wizard robes were swaying in the air. Some wizards even raised their hands to show their approval.
Only a few representatives were scattered among them who did not raise their hands. Some even crossed their arms, frowning and staring at the somewhat one-sided situation in front of them.
Babagid Aginbad looked a lot older than when he first became the president, but at this time, he stood on the rostrum in the center with a somewhat radiant expression. His green Kanga embroidered with golden patterns covered his body from his chest to his toes. His gaze swept across the rows of hands. "Now it seems that the result is very clear, so …"
"You've all been bought!" The Bulgarian Ministry of Magic's Minister Obalonsk shouted angrily, interrupting Babagid. Blue veins popped out on his bald head. "I object, this is not fair!"
"Please forgive me …" The representative of the German Ministry of Magic, Heinrich Telemann, stood up from his seat and suppressed his anger. His old-fashioned voice sounded. "Everyone, can the president who was elected in such a hurry really represent the International Union of Wizards and Wizards? Don't forget that the United Kingdom is still on the sanctions list of many countries here. Don't forget that the previous suffering and danger were brought to us by the wizards of this country. How can such a country lead the International Union of Wizards and Wizards? "
The representative of the United States was gloomy and did not say anything. The representative this time was not Leonard, whom Allen was familiar with, but a middle-aged wizard with hair. He was Gilbert Fontana, a direct descendant of Thurdard Fontana, one of the first twelve Aura in the United States. Originally, he was expected to take over the position of the principal of the Ilfmoney School of Witchcraft and Wizardry when he retired in ten or twenty years. However, after listening to Thurdard Fontana's speech, he gave up his career in education and began to enter politics in an attempt to make the United States of Witchcraft and Wizardry greater.
Because of their opposition to the hegemony of the United Kingdom, their faction had recently become quite popular among the ordinary wizards in the United States of Witchcraft and Wizardry who had become somewhat nationalistic. Therefore, they replaced the position of the conservative party and became the representative this time.
At this time, in addition to the seats where the representatives were sitting, the outermost circle of the representatives' guards obviously had some opinions about the meeting, and Ian was also there as one of the guards.
Ian's stubborn short blond hair had grown a lot longer, and the hair on his forehead almost covered half of his eyes. His originally thin body had become much stronger. During Allen's experience in the United States, the two of them went through some things together and had a duel. Occasionally, they would exchange letters and gifts during festivals to maintain their friendship. Of course, they were no longer opponents now.
"A bunch of assholes, just like flies … They've forgotten how to bully people just because they've lost a few bones …" An American sorcerer, who was taller than Ian, cursed as he waved his fist. "They've forgotten so quickly that the invaders have taken over so many colonies."
Ian did not agree. He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, frowning. Now that his companion was so angry that Allen was elected as the president, he was also dissatisfied with the situation as an American wizard. However, the contradiction and conflict caused by his relationship with Allen put him in a very difficult position.
"Please calm down!" Aginbad pressed his hands down and raised his voice a little to restore the silence. He retorted in a somewhat forceful tone, "This result was decided by a vote of the majority of countries at the meeting through formal procedures. There was nothing illegal in the process … If you are dissatisfied with this result and do not want it to happen, you should have said your opinions before and just now and let the representatives of the member countries judge … Personally, I think that if the countries can cooperate happily, it will contribute to the peace of the Magic World. It can even be said that this further proves the advantage of Headmaster Harris as the president … This matter itself is open and aboveboard, and there is nothing wrong with it. It should be considered as a standard to consider the candidate for president."
Aginbad was not at all sad that he was about to lose his position as president. After sitting in this position, he realized that it was different from what he had originally imagined. He was not the greatest light wizard in the world, and this position was as uncomfortable as being roasted by fire.
Moreover, Harris had promised to help the Ouagadou School of Magic become a floating city. Harris also said that in addition to business, he would also deepen the academic exchanges between the two schools. For example, in the field of transfiguration, he would help the students complete the final step of transforming into Animagus such as cheetahs and elephants.
With such a huge benefit, Aginbad would not have to face the blame of the wizards in his country if he resigned at this time. Of course, he would use the last bit of his authority as president before he handed over the power to Allen so that the deal could be completed smoothly.
"Everyone, in view of the fact that the Union only had one president before, it was too busy to deal with the increasing number of affairs …" Gilbert Vontana said. His voice was low and full of the temperament of a scholar. "We, the American counselor, believe that the Union should abandon its long-standing practices and establish a more complete system so that other countries can participate more in the affairs of the Union. For example, imitating the Muggle United Nations and setting up some permanent members to jointly deal with international affairs … This will bring us a more democratic and free influence in the Union."
The words of the American representative caused a brief commotion, but it was still not worth mentioning under the temptation of the floating city and the energy nucleus. Even Vontana, who proposed this proposal, knew the result. In fact, they already knew before they came that the British proposal this time would be irresistible to many countries. They came to the scene more to show their attitude and say these ideas so that they would have a reason to explain to the wizards in their country later.
"Thank you for your suggestion, Professor Vontana. The reform of the system is not started with just a few words. When President Harris takes office, you can elaborate on your ideas … Today, our theme is the election and handover of the president. We will not discuss irrelevant topics," Babagus said firmly. He paused and pressed his hands on the podium, looking ashamed. "I didn't have any outstanding achievements during my reign. I was limited by my ability, and I caused chaos in the international magic community. I didn't perform my duties well …"
The current president of the Union took the initiative to admit his incompetence. This kind of voluntary concession made the hall quiet down, and it also made it difficult for Telman and the Bulgarian to complain and criticize.
"My successor is different. His knowledge and strength, as well as his contributions in upholding the Law of Secrecy and combating the Dark Lord are obvious to all. He has shown excellent leadership in the construction of the Hogwarts School and the floating city. I hope that under the leadership of President Harris, the International Union of Wizards and Wizards can become more prosperous day by day and play a greater role in protecting the magic world, maintaining world peace, resolving regional conflicts, and so on. " Aginbad held out his hand in the direction of Allen. "President Harris, I am sorry to hand over such a complicated and difficult situation to you. Please accept my sincere apologies and blessings. I wish you all the best in your future work."
