Chapter 1478
I don't know if it was a coincidence or Akinbad's intention, but he chose the French magic union branch as the venue for this emergency joint meeting.
After all, the first session of the International Confederation of Wizards was held in France when it was founded.
If in such a place of great commemorative significance to the federation, a discussion on the motion to overthrow the "International Confederation of Wizards' Secrecy Act" that is also of great significance to the federation, it would be confusing to say the least. It felt like a provocation.
Of course, the meeting has not yet started, and the official members of the various countries have not yet gathered. Aginbad only indicated in the expedited invitation letter that it is a discussion on the "Haierbo Rebellion".
The real issue, of course, can't be said all at once, isn't it?
"Is this... the venue of the first joint conference?"
At this moment, Kingsley and Aginbad, accompanied by the French Minister of Magic and Mrs. Maxime, the headmaster of Beauxbatons, came to this historic conference room.
Kingsley seemed a little puzzled by the fact that no one had used it for a long time, and although it was cleaned from time to time, it was still somewhat dirty and dusty.
"In fact, this place is usually only used for visiting and displaying, and...to be honest, no one would want to visit this kind of place, so I'm a bit slack in cleaning."
"Madame Maxime."
Seeing that the big headmaster next to her told the truth without concealment, the minister couldn't help but tugged at the hem of her clothes, but instead, Maxim lowered his head and stared at her.
"These two are my friends, there's no need to be so secretive when talking to them!"
After saying this to the obviously weak minister, Maxim turned his head and said with a little worry:
"We have also helped to step up the convening of parliamentarians from various countries. I said Mr. Aginbad and Mr. Shaker, should you two tell the truth? To be honest, the current tense situation in the British magic world I also know that a joint meeting is going to be held at this time, and I am afraid that everyone will find it unusual... Do you think so?"
After she finished speaking, the French Minister of Magic added:
"...Moreover, I deliberately chose this old meeting place that has long been abandoned."
"Yes!" Aginbad heard,
He couldn't help but nodded slightly and said, "Ma'am, you are right. Such an untimely emergency meeting is indeed suspicious. However, because of this, it is even more inconvenient for us to tell the truth now... Oh, This is definitely not a distrust of the two, but... Mr. McLean's proposal."
"Ok--"
After hearing this, Maxim couldn't help but ponder for a while, and then nodded somewhat helplessly.
"Okay! Anyway, I'll know sooner or later... But hearing what you said, it seems that things are even more amazing than I originally imagined?"
Before the words were finished, Kingsley and Akinbad looked at each other, and then both showed a wry smile.
Madam Maxim is indeed not an outsider, so the two actually didn't particularly want to hide it from each other. The intentional mention of Maca just now is actually equivalent to giving Maxim a very clear reminder.
Even Maca had to seriously advise them to keep it secret, this matter must be very involved.
And at the next moment when the old conference room fell into a slight silence unknowingly, a knock on the door suddenly sounded from the door, causing the four people present to turn their heads at the same time.
"Oh, that's my secretary... three wait a minute, I'll come as soon as I go."
After finishing speaking, the minister hurried to the door, and after the secretary whispered something in his ear, he came back and said:
"The owner of Castle Blois already knew about the two of you coming. He photographed a representative and wanted to talk to you... Don't you know?"
The French Blois family is a well-known top wizard family in Europe. As the president of the federation, Aginbad has naturally dealt with the other party several times.
However, while Akinbad was still hesitating, Kingsley spoke first instead.
"Understood, let the representative of Castle Blois come in!"
"Are you all right?" Aginbad turned his head and asked in a low voice, "To be honest, the people from the Bulova family are a bit difficult to deal with... If that person suddenly asks about the actual situation, I'm afraid we won't be able to answer?"
"No problem," Kingsley said, "although I haven't seen many people from Castle Blois—"
"Haven't you seen it?"
"Hmm... But with Maca's name, they will definitely not embarrass us too much... Maybe they can give us some help!"
Everyone basically knows about the friendship between Maca and the Bulova family, but not many people know how deep that friendship is.
After all, in the impression of most people who know the Bulova family, that low-key but proud family is not an easy object to associate with.
Not long after, when an old man in a suit and leather shoes with neatly combed hair came in steadily from the door, and stretched out his hand to Kingsley and Akinbad with a smile, everyone except Kingsley immediately felt There was a surprise.
They all know this old man. He is the oldest butler of Blois Castle, and he manages all the affairs of the Blois family.
Although the old housekeeper often had a smile on his face in the past, he always gave people a sense of distance. How can he feel as cordial as an old friend like today?
"Is Mr. McLean okay? Those people sent by the previous owner are still enough? I have been thinking about whether to send another group of people to help!"
"No, that's enough," Kingsley replied immediately, holding the old butler's hand, "Maka said that Castle Blois is equally important, and...although I don't know why, But he also said recently that the presence of Fort Blois has become more important than ever."
"yes?"
Kingsley's words obviously made people feel very concerned, including the old housekeeper. But after a short pause, he immediately smiled again, and then took the initiative to change the subject:
"I understand. When I go back, I will let the people below continue to strengthen the defense."
After exchanging pleasantries like this, the old butler immediately turned serious and said seriously:
"Actually, the reason why the Patriarch asked me to come here this time is mainly to allow me to fully cooperate with the two of you in carrying out this emergency meeting... No matter what you say in the French magic world, it can be regarded as the territory of our Blois family. If there is any need, we will definitely All the best to help."
Even though the French Minister of Magic was standing nearby, the old butler did not shy away from saying "the French magic world is the domain of the Blois family". It is no wonder that the Minister has always acted so weakly .
With such a deep-rooted and thriving big family sitting on the sidelines, how could he be strong?
