On the third day after the rise of Boothbarton, the wizards gathered at the bottom of the wizard hall with a huge dome in the middle of the temporary Ministry of Magic in the floating city of Hogwarts. The place was so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Teleporting into the crowd under such circumstances was a very dangerous thing to do, because it could lead to an extra person standing between the left and right sides of your body.
In order to wait for the results of the vote on the establishment of the Magic Kingdom to be announced today, many wizards had arrived early to find a good spot.
The flag with Harris's All-Seeing Eye was fluttering in the sky. It seemed that because of the announcement of the establishment of the Magic Kingdom, the British flag had disappeared and was replaced with the same flag of Harris's All-Seeing Eye.
Wizards were constantly using the magic fireworks produced by the Weasley brothers' magic workshop to make them bloom in the sky. They were wearing clothes with a moving portrait of Allen Harris, riding on flying brooms and hovering in the sky, cheering. Most of the wizards on the floating city were boiling with excitement. The originally free and undisciplined wizards had developed a sense of nationalism after a series of victories and miracles in the past few years, causing a sense of pride to spread in the hearts of the wizards.
However, there were still some differences compared to a few days ago. Although the floating city had always been known for its diverse population, the overall style of the city was still mainly British, even if it had taken in some refugees and immigrants, or even non-wizard races such as werewolves and vampires, or even the non-wizard centaurs, or the Seductresses in the Black Forest.
But today, this convention was broken. The German wizards were easily distinguished because of their distinctive traditional costumes, especially their distinctive hats. Now, at least half of the wizards on the floating city were wearing feather hats of various birds and magical animals, or big hats with the emblem of a single-headed eagle, double-headed eagle, or even a skull, depending on the region they came from. The scene was also filled with German slogans such as "Mein Kaiser!", "Hail to Allen Harris!", "Long live the Magic Kingdom!" and so on.
This made the scene outside the hall look like the German wizards were more enthusiastic than the British wizards. Moreover, the advantage of loud voices in German was obviously easier to cover up the more elegant British English. Originally, the German magic world was in a state of annexation by the British magic world and lost their land. But today, if the United Magic Kingdom was established, then at least in theory, they would still be on equal footing with the British wizards.
Therefore, the German wizards, who had just lost the war, were still in the process of completing the handover of power and territory in their country. But in the face of this vote by the wizard citizens, they still tried their best to get more people to support the establishment of the new United Magic Kingdom. They also tried to emphasize the relationship between Family Harris and Germany. In a sense, they were indeed more enthusiastic than the original British wizards.
In addition to the results of the vote that would be announced later, now the floating city of the Hogwarts was also undergoing another thing that could easily make the residents more arrogant.
There was still some time before the results were out. Apart from watching the fireworks and the celebration, the wizards who had already snatched seats cast their gaze at the sky above the north and southeast corners of the floating city.

Now, the wizards' focus was on the two floating ship fleets that had just ascended from the lower part of the floating city. The residents were already used to the floating ships themselves. Now, what attracted their attention was the metal chains between the fleets that looked like giant pythons that had come alive. They were even more exaggerated than three-headed battleships.
The wizards on the floating ships were casting spells on these chains that were connected to the lower parts of the Hogwarts. They proudly flew up as they were commanded. From the looks of it, they were going to use the chains to reach the bottom of the mountain below the other floating magic school that had just arrived.
The plaza was getting noisier and noisier. The spectating adepts were gesticulating and talking about this rare sight. Some of the more curious adepts even gave up on the good seats they had gotten in the meeting hall and took out a flying broom from their bags to get a closer look.
The floating city of the Hogwarts was much larger than the two magic schools. This made the chained Demstrand and Boothbarton look like they were imprisoned by the Hogwarts.
"Taking over these two magic schools and chaining them up like pets. This is so cool."
"This is our Hogwarts friendly exchange … But I think Demstrand's school emblem suits Headmaster Harris' style better than the sissy Frenchman's. Other than the Cyrillic letters that should be changed, the drawing of a double-headed eagle and a deer skull is pretty good …"
"We can look forward to it. Headmaster Harris seems to like triangles … I saw it when I was on the floating ship. There's also a big chain in the southwest corner of the floating city of the Hogwarts. Now, the north corner is Demstrand, and the southeast corner is Boothbarton …"
…
After hearing what he said, everyone understood without Harris' explanation. The excited crowd shouted loudly — that was for the American Academy of Ephraim!
Jessica Knox stood out from the excited and fanatical crowd. She walked out of the Wizard Hall, which had a huge U-shaped dome. Seeing so many people gathered outside, she subconsciously covered the side of her face that had been burned by the flames. Although her scar had been healed and no trace of the burn could be seen, it was a habit that she had not yet corrected.
When Jessica came to the Ministry of Magic in advance in the morning, the staff of the Ministry of Magic had already done the renovation in advance. The logos of the British Ministry of Magic had been removed. Apparently, they were preparing to return the name of the United Empire. Now, the crowd's shouting made her even more flustered.
She walked past the celebrating wizards in a daze like a wandering ghost. She tried to walk out but found that she could not squeeze through. Jessica looked back at the temporary British Ministry of Magic. Under the sunlight, the reflection of the Omniscient Eye badge made her a little dizzy. She turned her head and looked in the direction of Harris Lake Island and Hogwarts University. After staring for a long time, she finally sighed with a trembling breath and shook her head in resignation. Then, with a burst of black smoke, Jessica was forced to teleport away.
Then, Jessica's figure appeared in the residential area favored by the professors and the upper class of Hogwarts University. As soon as she steadied herself, a tall iron golem at the door focused its eyes on her and began to shrink its limbs to make itself look shorter. Then it bent down and greeted respectfully, "Master, everything is normal. Welcome home."
The somewhat mechanical voice woke Jessica who was immersed in her own thoughts. She nodded to the golem and looked at the house that originally belonged to Professor Fleevy. She was almost drowned by the guilt and the recent grievances and negative emotions in her heart. In the end, these feelings turned into hatred for Fausz Graves. If it were not for his actions, the Ian would not have participated in this kind of thing, and even the American Magic Circle would not have participated in the attack. Then, not only Professor Fleevy would not have died, the American Magic Circle would not have faced the impending disaster of war.
