As the assistant to the four "Elders" of the Bell Family, Sally was by no means weak in terms of status or strength.

Having undergone rigorous training, she believes that she has the ability to handle any unexpected situation.

But at this moment, a fear she had never experienced before, seemingly originating from the deepest part of her soul, dominated her mind and body from the inside out, causing her to unconsciously lower her head and not dare to look directly at her Young Master's face.

If a Death Eater were standing here right now, he might have the illusion that the person in front of him was the Dark Lord.

Of course, although Bell's strength increased dramatically after his battle with Voldemort, he was still not comparable to Voldemort at this moment.

However, if it were the Voldemort who had just been resurrected and was extremely weak, then Bell wouldn't be afraid at all right now.

"I see..."

After receiving a positive answer from Sally, Bell raised his left hand and clenched it tightly. All the papers flying in the air quickly gathered towards a single point and were eventually reduced to dust by the Breaking Curse.

Bell couldn't be bothered to look at the rest of the reports. He had already realized that the root of the problem actually lay with his grandparents.

Strictly speaking, Bell's four elders are only in their 50s, none of them are 60.

This is hardly considered old age for a wizard.

Because of their magical powers, wizards are almost immune to disease. This results in wizards generally enjoying excellent health.

Don't you see, Dumbledore 100 years old, yet he could still kill a bull with a single punch?

Of course, ordinary wizards can't compare to Dumbledore, but if nothing unexpected happens, it's quite normal for them to live a healthy life to 80 or 90 years old.

Perhaps because they had many children and grandchildren, Bell's grandparents and maternal grandparents aged much faster psychologically than physically.

This has led to the four elderly people being conservative in their approach to things, completely lacking the vigor and drive of the younger generation.

But Bell is different; he's only 15!

Although, including his previous life, he has now lived for more than 40 years.

But people can't always live in the past; they have to learn to look forward.

So, he is 15 years old! No arguments accepted!

(The main reason was that Bell didn't want to be taken away by the police for "pedophilia." After all, Hermione is Muggle-born, so she's technically under police jurisdiction.)

At the prime of his life, Bell is not like his elders, who are hesitant and overthinking things.

Is there any problem in this world that cannot be solved by brute force?

If so... then we'll think of other solutions later.

"Go! Get me detailed information on all the United States mafia gangs, especially information about the relationships between the various gangs."

Taking a deep breath to calm his anger, Bell gave an order to Sally, who stood frozen in place, not daring to move.

Whew!

Sally breathed a sigh of relief as she felt the heavy pressure that had been weighing on her finally disappear.

"Young... Young Master, if I may ask, what are you planning to do?"

Although she was somewhat afraid of the Young Master who was a little unfamiliar to her, Sally still asked a question out of a sense of responsibility.

The four elders in the family had specifically instructed her that this was the Young Master's first time dealing with family affairs, and whether he could solve the problems was not important; what mattered was learning and growth.

Therefore, her main task for the next month or so will be to help her Young Master learn and grow.

Compared to this mission, some gains and losses are simply insignificant.

But what Sally really didn't expect was that before meeting the Young Master for the first time today, she had imagined all sorts of possible scenarios and thought she had made ample preparations.

As a result, after only about 10 minutes, the situation had completely exceeded her expectations, which inevitably made her a little worried about what might happen next.

"Am I really capable of successfully completing this mission?"

This was the first time Sally had such negative thoughts since becoming an administrative assistant.

What are you doing?

As the saying goes, flies don't land on eggs without cracks... cough cough! No, I mean, the strongest fortresses are always breached from within!

I refuse to believe that all those gangsters in United States are as united as a rock.

As long as there's a rift between them, we can use that as an opportunity to completely break their blockade!

At this moment, Bell felt as if he were possessed by the spirit of the Wolong, and all problems would disappear under his wisdom and intelligence!

I wonder if Mr. Wolong will possess this Britain?

"But Young Master, the patriarch and the others have also used this method before, but the result was that the various wizarding groups in United States became more united, which is why the family is now facing some difficulties."

Sally's flat, emotionless voice ruthlessly shattered Bell's fleeting fantasy.

"Is... is that so?"

Bell was so embarrassed!

Fortunately, he didn't get too cocky, otherwise he'd probably be wishing he were dead by now.

"What did Father and the others do back then?"

Bell asked curiously.

I just don't think my own father would do something like this.

In the following time, Sally explained in detail to Bell and Shanna the methods that William and others had used.

Incidentally, she also educated the Bell siblings on a lot of common knowledge about the United States wizarding world.

As mentioned before, since most of the wizards who remained on the North American Continent were Half-blood or Muggle-born "solo warriors", the American Wizarding World has almost no Pure-blood Family like those in Europe.

Family influence is not popular in the American Wizarding World; there are only a few, and their strength is generally at a mid-level.

Aside from the Magical Congress, the true giants of the American Wizarding World are various groups formed by numerous wizards.

This is what Bell refers to as the "underworld".

This isn't Bell criticizing them; the fact is, these wizarding groups are not recognized by the Magical Congress.

Moreover, while there are indeed wizarding groups that are enthusiastic about doing good deeds, the vast majority of wizarding groups will more or less get involved in some gray or even black areas in order to seek more benefits.

These American Wizarding World specialties—'gangsterism'—are the culprits hindering the Menethil Family's expansion in United States.
