The Scales of Victory
After resolving the long-standing "Blood Curse" on Elshiona, Xiwen naturally gained the support of the Greengrass family.
This is also the first Pure-blood New Faction- Pure-blood families, besides the Rosier family, to confirm joining the new forces in the England.
Once there's a first, there will naturally be a second. Although the national conditions of England and France are different, and the histories of Pure-blood- blood families are not entirely the same, the current world situation is becoming increasingly turbulent and chaotic. Few Pure-blood families have the confidence and strength of the Malfoy family, and firmly believe that they can remain unscathed.
It was precisely because of this that, with Xiwen's tireless efforts and the support of the pro- Dumbledore Pure-blood faction, and with the continuous growth of the Pure-blood New Faction in France, Xiwen's power in England gradually flourished.
Powerful pro -Dumbledore families such as the Prewett family, Longbottom family, and Weasley family have all expressed their willingness to stand with Xiwen.
The McMillan family headquarters in England also expressed its support, since their branch in France had already been incorporated into this new force. In everyone's eyes, they were already in the same boat as the Pure-blood New Faction.
Since that's the case, it's better to simply Xiwen's forces completely, so that we'll have a powerful protector when disaster strikes.
Pure-blood families such as the Malfoy family, Slughorn, Ollivander Family mostly chose to observe from the sidelines, either because they were confident in their own strength, adhered to the principle of not taking sides, or were uninterested in worldly conflicts.
There have been some unexpected incidents among the Pure-blood families. For example, the Gaunt family, which originated from Salazar Slytherin, had its heir Morfin Gaunt imprisoned in Azkaban for murdering Muggle, and its patriarch Marvolo Gaunt was also imprisoned for obstructing the Aurors from taking Morfin Gaunt away.
As for their youngest daughter Merope Gaunt, she had run away from home and disappeared more than a decade ago.
Xiwen naturally did not receive support from this Pure-blood families that had no one left in the household.
The Travers, Fawley, Lestrange, and Black families, among others, have explicitly stated their refusal to join the ranks of the Pure-blood New Faction.
These Pure-blood families are staunch supporters of the Slytherin House spirit; basically, the entire family is Slytherin. They adhere to the principle of Pure-blood supremacy and are very dissatisfied with Xiwen's idea of reforming the Wizarding World.
They were puzzled that the Rosier family had such an heir who did not firmly uphold the idea of Pure-blood, and at the same time, they were both jealous of and in awe of Xiwen's strength, so they dared not express any overly harsh words.
In response, Xiwen did not force these families to join. Instead, he selected some young wizards from among them who had not been brainwashed by the outdated Pure-blood ideology and corrupt Pure-blood spirit, such as Alphard Black, the youngest son of the Black family, and used their status in the family to influence other Pure-blood with rigid thinking.
Xiwen also knew that he had not given a detailed outline of the future development direction after the Pure-blood reform. He was currently studying at Hogwarts while traveling back and forth using the Time-Turner, and he really did not have the time or energy to plan out such a programmatic idea.
Therefore, it is understandable that the proud Pure-blood do not approve of him.
What Pure-blood wizards want most is to maintain their leadership position in the Wizarding World and ensure that Muggle-born wizard do not threaten their rule or infringe upon their interests. This is why, although there are many Muggle-born wizard, including some outstanding ones, the Wizarding World has historically lacked Muggle-born Minister for Magic.
It's all about profit!
The emergence of the Pure-blood New Faction led by Xiwen, while ostensibly uniting Pure-blood, actually provided opportunities for Muggle-born wizard to develop their own ideas and practices. This threatened the Pure-blood' dominance in the Wizarding World, naturally causing their dissatisfaction.
According to Xiwen, Pure-blood families should contribute to the overall development of the Wizarding World, not just for immediate meager gains, but to obtain greater benefits in the long run.
Under these circumstances, the Half-blood and Muggle-born wizards, who make up a large portion of the Wizarding World's population, naturally need to be put to use. They can be brought into the fold to jointly promote the progress and development of the Wizarding World, thereby increasing the overall strength of the Wizarding World and also pushing the profits of the Pure-blood families at the top of the pyramid to an even higher level.
However, this is ultimately just a concept and cannot be accepted by all Pure-blood.
Many people are thinking about the unchanging tradition of living off the family's wealth until they die. Their thinking is not without reason, because change will bring about unforeseen events, and these unforeseen events can lead to unexpected consequences for Pure-blood families.
Xiwen understood their thoughts, but given the current world situation, if all forces that could be united could not be united, then the world would inevitably fall into darkness!
Therefore, he had to take action!
With the continuous growth and expansion of the Pure-blood New Faction, the development momentum of the Pure-blood Party in Western Europe has been gradually curbed.
Furthermore, the dispatch of elite teams from various countries to assist the International Confederation of Wizards, and the sending of outstanding graduating students from various magic schools to conduct practical training, have increased the International Confederation of Wizards's armed strength and gradually put the Saints in a disadvantageous position in various regions.
In the following year, with the help of public opinion in France, Kama was successfully elected Minister of French Ministry of Magic. At the same time, with the support of Miranda, who was close to the top of the wizarding world, the Pure-blood New Faction gradually took control of the entire France.
Meanwhile, in the England, Xiwen united numerous Pure-blood factions and Dumbledore the Order of the Phoenix, while also maintaining contact with forces in the France, together thwarting several of Grindelwald's insane plans.
After thwarting Grindelwald's plan to attack the International Confederation of Wizards headquarters once again, Xiwen gradually realized that the situation he had discussed with Flamel and Dumbledore was drawing ever closer.
When Grindelwald was unable to defeat the International Confederation of Wizards and Dumbledore with the power of the Pure-blood Party, the only path he could choose was to engage in a duel with Dumbledore at the pinnacle of the world.
When there are only two great wizards in the world, each with the power of a nuclear weapon, their duel will be the most crucial factor in determining the fate of the world!
However, the situation is different now. Dumbledore's side has gradually gained the support of Xiwen, Miranda, and Aurelius Dumbledore, who has finally completely controlled the Obscurus. Even if each of these people is not enough to contend with Grindelwald individually, their combined strength is no less than that of Grindelwald!
"The scales of victory have unknowingly tipped in their favor, "Xiwen thought.
