Harry's POV
The minister rose up and said, "Now that the Chief Warlock post is open, any section can contest. The one with the highest authority in the section will take over as the Chief Warlock. As well as assigning your side in the Wizengamot. New and old houses now have the opportunity to change your section."

Moiz stood up and assigned the houses of Slytherin and Gaunt to dark, whereas he assigned houses, Emrys and Lefay to the neutral.

Severus assigned the house of Prince to the dark section, whereas the houses Ravenclaw and Peverell to the neutral section.

Remus assigned his house Lupin as well as Gryffindor to the neutral section.

Sirius stood up and reassigned the house of Black to the dark section and the house of Potter to the neutral section.

Alice stood up and assigned her houses, Fortescue, and Hufflepuff to the neutral section.

The minister stood up and asked, "Who is the lord of the houses, Emrys and Lefay?"

Sirius stood up and said, "Harry James Sirius Potter-Black is the Heir to the houses Emrys and Lefay. He would be taking over Lordship once he completes his education in Hogwarts."

"Who are the Lords of the founding houses?" The minister asked.

Moiz, Severus, and Alice stood up.

"I, Moiz Maverick Slytherin-Gaunt, am the Lord of houses Slytherin and Gaunt." Moiz said.

"I, Severus Tobias Prince-Snape, am the lord of houses Prince and Ravenclaw." Severus said.

"I, Alice Longbottom nee Fortescue, an the Lady to the houses Fortescue and Hufflepuff." Alice said.

"What about Gryffindor?" The minister asked.

"Sirius stood up again and said, "The Heir to the house of Gryffindor is Harry James Sirius Potter-Black."

"To what houses is young Mr. Potter-Black Heir to?" Lord Greengrass asked.

Remus and Sirius looked at each other and nodded. "He is the Heir to the houses of Potter, Black, Lupin, Peverell, Gryffindor, Emrys, Lefay, Slytherin, and Guant." Sirius said with pride.

"How can he be the Heir to all those houses? You must be lying." Someone from the light section, probably a Dumbledore fanatic, shouted.

"He is the Heir to House Potter from his father. Houses Black and Lupin, since Remus and I adopted him. Heir to house Peverell as the house of Peverell married into house Potter and the main line of Peverell is no more. Heir to Gryffindor as the main line of house Gruffindor married into the main line of house Peverell and, as I said before, House of Peverell had married into the House of Potter. He is the Heir to houses Emrys and Lefay from his mother, who might the child of squibs from those lines. The inheritence test from Gringotts doesn't lie. The last, Heir to houses Slytherin and Gaunt, through right to conquest. Harry had defeated the dark lord, has he not? Do you still have any questions about my son, Lord McMillian." Sirius said.

The person who questioned my heritage didn't know where to put his head. His face was beet-red from embarrassment as he shook his head.

The minster said, "If any would like to contest for the Chief Warlock position, please step forward."

Moiz looked at Rufus and gestured, asking him to contest. Rufus walked down to the stage and stood.

No one wanted to contest against the Lord of House Lestrange. As he was the only one contesting, he got the position easily.

"Who would be representing your house from now, Lord Lestrange?" The minister asked.

"My eldest son, Rodolphus Lestrange, would be taking my place and voting." Rufus said.

Everyone accepted it.

The minister raised his wand and said, "I, Minister of Magic, do hereby declare that Rufus Lestrange shall be the Chief Warlock until the postion is stripped off him or he resigns from the post. So, mote it be."

The minister and Rufus glowed a little. Magic has accepted Rufus as Chief Warlock.

When the session was done, Rufus walked to us and asked, "Why me?"

"You had the best experience in Wizengamot. You also have a lot of followers. With you as Chief, after knowing that you do not light of discrimination, they would be careful while passing bills." Moiz said.

Rufus nodded.

"That and I would like to argue for the bills rather than pass them. I do not even have the experience to take the position as Moiz." Moiz said.

All of us agreed.

We carefully walked out of the chamber. Sirius had cast disillusionment charms on us, and we walked to the floo, canceled the charm, and flooed back to Slytherin Manor.
