"Great Dark Lord, from today onward, I pledge my complete allegiance to you. I will obey your every command!"
In the basement beneath Oxford Street, the corpulent Umbridge knelt before the memory projection of George, her face full of flattery as she swore her loyalty.
Ever since George became Minister, her life had taken a downturn. Her authority was gradually stripped away. She never imagined that fortune would turn, and she would be noticed by Voldemort himself.
If she could help Voldemort unify the wizarding world, would she ever lack power again?
"Very good. Serve me well, and in the future, you shall be the Minister for Magic."
The memory projection of George looked down at the kneeling Umbridge, a glint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
There was no need to keep many people in the Ministry—just a Malfoy would suffice. This pale toad could be discarded after her usefulness ended.
"Voldemort! You are surrounded! Drop your wand and surrender immediately, or face execution on the spot!"
The basement door was flung open violently. Rufus stormed in with a large group of elite Aurors, all aiming their wands at the memory projection of George.
Seeing this, the projection looked down at the shocked Umbridge.
"So it was your incompetence that exposed us. I have no use for such a useless subordinate."
"Dark Lord, it wasn't me, I—"
Umbridge trembled, just about to explain, when a flash of green light struck her. Her body collapsed in an instant.
"You lot think you can take me down?"
Having killed Umbridge, the memory projection of George looked at Rufus and the others with utter disdain.
Just then, the real George walked in.
"Maybe they can't stop you. But what about me?"
"You again? Hmph. Do you really think I fear you? I did regret killing you last time—we should be fighting Muggles, not each other.
If you're this foolish, then there's no need for you to live either."
Upon seeing his original self, the projection launched into an intense performance.
But the real George was equally steadfast and declared sternly:
"Nothing you say can erase the crimes you committed. Release the Headmasters now!"
"Then there's nothing more to discuss. Petrifying Chain Lightning!"
With a wave of his hand, the projection of George released blue beams of magical energy, piercing through the elite Aurors surrounding him, freezing them in place.
"Finite Incantatem!"
At that moment, the real George sprang into action. First, he cast a wide-area spell that lifted the full-body bind curses off the Aurors, then launched a direct attack at his projection.
The battle between the two quickly escalated, with powerful spells flying back and forth.
Their magic was so overwhelming that they blasted open the ceiling of the basement, taking their fight from the underground to the surface, and then into the skies.
Fortunately, the Aurors had already evacuated the surrounding Muggles and set up protective wards, preventing the battle from being discovered by the public.
Rufus and the others, eager to assist, soon realized that even hundreds of them were powerless in this fight.
Their spells couldn't even reach Voldemort; they were obliterated by the shockwaves generated from the clash between George and his projection.
It was then they truly understood: only George was capable of contending with Voldemort.
"Who would've thought that someone so young could master so many spells—including even the forbidden Love Magic.
But I am no longer who I once was. Your Love Magic can no longer harm me. Let me show you my true power!"
With a furious roar, the memory projection of George transformed into a dragon and rapidly expanded, turning into a colossal creature that now hovered over all of London.
"Hahaha! Hiding? We wizards have hidden long enough! Today, let the Muggles know—wizards are the true rulers of this world!"
"He's lost his mind!"
Rufus and the other Aurors trembled as they looked up at the thousands-of-meters-tall dragon that Voldemort had become. His booming voice echoed across the entire city, filling them with disbelief and rage.
They were all familiar with Animagus transformations, but Animagi could only turn into regular animals. This was the first time anyone had seen someone transform into a fire dragon.
And not just any fire dragon—this one was far more powerful than all known dragons combined.
What made matters worse was that Voldemort had effectively exposed the wizarding world to the Muggles and even declared open war.
This wasn't 1926—it was 1994.
Back in 1926, in New York, the wizarding world almost got exposed due to Grindelwald.
Fortunately, magical zoologist Newt Scamander used magical creatures and special substances extracted from them to erase the memories of all Muggles in New York, preserving the secrecy of the wizarding world.
But that solution only worked in 1926. Even if they asked Newt Scamander to try the same method now, it would be useless.
Modern Muggle technology had already produced the internet, smartphones, computers, and more.
And so it was.
Ordinary Londoners were stunned by the massive fire dragon in the sky. At the same time, they pulled out their phones, capturing and uploading footage to social media.
In less than ten minutes, the entire world would know what was happening above London—and that wizards and magic were real.
Governments around the globe would immediately go on high alert and implement measures in response to the existence of wizards.
In the past, the wizarding world remained hidden because Muggles didn't believe in magic and didn't have the technology to investigate it.
But now, if global governments used their most advanced technologies to search for wizards, hiding would become nearly impossible.
And that was exactly what George wanted.
Using Voldemort's identity to trigger a war between the wizarding and Muggle worlds, he would then defeat the Muggle armies and rise as the savior who took down Voldemort.
Finally, in the name of peace between Muggles and wizards, he would unify both worlds and establish a new empire.
"Rufus, take everyone and use whatever magic you can to evacuate Muggles as far away as possible to avoid casualties.
Things have gone this far—I'll handle Voldemort myself, or else this entire city will be destroyed."
After issuing his command to Rufus, George spread his wings and soared into the sky. Then, with a twist of his body, he transformed into a giant thousands of meters tall.
"This really does feel like an Ultraman vs. Kaiju battle!"
Looking at the dragon-shaped projection before him, George couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Then he launched an Ultraman-style flying kick.
And so, above London, a spectacular battle between a glowing white giant and a dragon monster unfolded.
The dragon periodically spewed fire, while the glowing giant unleashed blue energy beams and bolts of lightning with each swing of his arm.
The scene was nothing short of electrifying.
