He preferred to work quietly, develop in silence—but at this moment, a little theatrics were exactly what he needed to achieve the desired effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And indeed, when backed by real power, a bit of flair can earn you a legion of admirers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, in the main world, which superhero doesn't make a flashy entrance? Especially the flamboyant Iron Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Avengers have a signature landing style—famously dubbed the \"superhero landing\"—which is one reason why they have such massive fanbases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, George's dramatic and distinctive appearance truly did capture everyone's attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above the arena, to the left floated Voldemort, shrouded in ominous black mist, radiating evil. On the right hovered a radiant young man with eight wings spread wide, like a divine angel descending from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stark contrast ignited a flicker of hope in the hearts of the hundred thousand wizards present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though only a flicker—Voldemort's power earlier had been overwhelmingly terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A mere underage wizard dares challenge me? You've got guts. I like your boldness, but you're far too overconfident.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Memory Construct George looked at the real George with a face full of mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real George, however, stood with righteous dignity and retorted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whether I'm overconfident or not—only a battle will tell!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his wand, he shouted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Summon Lightning!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive bolt of lightning, thicker than a water tank, tore down from the sky and struck directly at the Memory Construct George.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feigning a surprised expression, the Construct quickly raised a shield using the Iron Armor Spell—a spell that had blocked countless Auror spells before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, the magical shield shattered instantly under the force of the lightning, dispersing entirely as it exhausted its energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A wizard so young, yet already stronger than Dumbledore? Tell me your name. My Killing Curse doesn't strike nameless wizards!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguised as Voldemort, the Memory Construct George brandished his wand. With a shout, he fired a burst of deadly green light—the same curse that had just shattered thousands of spells—straight at the real George.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wizards below gasped, hearts clenched with tension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This confrontation, this dialogue—it was ten thousand times more thrilling and intense than the earlier Quidditch match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"George, look out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione, Harry, George's friends, Professors Snape and McGonagall, and his colleagues couldn't help but shout warnings in alarm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George's face grew solemn as he raised his wand to meet the attack, releasing a blinding bolt of thunderous white lightning that matched the green Killing Curse blow for blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"George, Assistant to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement—today, I will shatter the darkness with lightning!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white lightning and green curse clashed mid-air, like a spear striking a shield, immediately locking into a deadlock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The titanic magic, far beyond what normal wizards could comprehend, sent waves of magical energy rippling through the air, distorting the atmosphere itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire arena shook under the force of the collision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spectators' faces were filled with horror—they had never witnessed such overwhelming, apocalyptic magic before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deafening explosion, both the green and white lights vanished. A violent shockwave blasted the audience off their feet, slamming them into the arena walls in a tangled heap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George's real body and the Memory Construct both smirked faintly as they were blown back. Each secretly used a Transfiguration spell to turn saliva into blood, spitting it out for dramatic effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No light without darkness. Boy, you'll never awaken those who pretend to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ministry is rotten to the core—they were never my match. And you… you're just a lowly assistant. Even with power, what can you really do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We'll stop here for today. Let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Memory Construct purposely shouted \"lowly assistant\" loud enough for all to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it transformed into a streak of black light, rising into the iron-sand cloud above, taking with it all the Death Eaters, Dumbledore, and the senior officials of the Ministry—vanishing from sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George slowly landed on the commentary platform where Voldemort had stood moments ago and coughed up more blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"George, are you alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rufus, McGonagall, Snape, and others rushed over in concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George took a deep breath and wiped the blood from his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm fine. Just a little injured. But Voldemort is definitely hurt too—otherwise, he wouldn't have retreated so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just a pity… I couldn't save the Headmaster or the Minister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"George, you've already done more than enough. If not for you, the Ministry might not even exist anymore. Who knows how many people would've become his prisoners.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone quickly chimed in to comfort him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for Snape, who knew a bit more about George's background, no one could believe how powerful George had become.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the terrifying Voldemort had been forced to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gratitude and relief flooded their hearts—they felt as if they had survived a disaster. No one blamed George for failing to rescue Dumbledore or Fudge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The senior Ministry officials have all been captured. Now we face a Voldemort a hundred times stronger than the one from over a decade ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Voldemort's words reminded me of something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rufus turned serious as the remaining Ministry leaders and representatives from other magical governments approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"George, you can no longer remain just an assistant. You must take on greater responsibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only your power can stand against Voldemort. You should be our new Minister—to lead us in stopping his dark ambitions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rufus paused to think, then looked at George solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Ministry's leadership gone, public faith would collapse. Appointing the man who had just forced Voldemort to retreat was the only way to restore confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And besides George, there truly was no one else who could stand up to Voldemort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, cooperation with other magical governments would soon be necessary. With George's strength, the British Ministry would hold far more influence at the global table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for George's youth and inexperience with leadership?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his recent actions, Rufus felt that George, though young, was more mature and competent than Fudge, who only knew how to play politics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And besides—they were still here. They could support George in managing affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director… I'm just a junior assistant, and I only joined the Ministry recently. Isn't making me Minister a bit… against the rules?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know why I joined the Ministry—I just love researching magic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George immediately put on a troubled expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now was the time to act humble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These are special times, and special times call for special measures. I believe Director Scrimgeour is right—we need a Minister like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Deputy Director of the International Magical Cooperation Department, Emily, stepped forward in strong support of George.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1122,"2026-06-10T06:47:12.819Z",1,"novelbin.me","4f9ede2be61393d087d44702e18e1f478ff5de96088b9224ba9c227188be780f","marvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-chapter-494","marvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-chapter-492",918,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-cover.jpg"]
