Harry's New Life (Harry X Oc Harem)

Chapter 53

Yue POV

Yue smirked as she slowly stepped into the halls of the Ministry of Magic in Russia. The halls were cold, just like the air outside. I liked it. There weren't any unnecessary statues or other useless things.

The people of magical Russia were warriors. They lived in some of the coldest places in the world, and for them strength was everything. They had after all one of the largest armies of magical communities, and an even larger civilian population. On top of that every civilian, male or female, trained for 5 years as an army soldier, making sure that everyone who was of age knew how to fight. And it meant that they were able to mobilize almost every one of their civilians to be part of the army if the need for an army that big arose.

And Yue knew that she would have to prove her strength before these men and women would take her orders. And she would show them how strong she was. She obviously couldn't use any lethal magic, but she could use Air magic and throw her opponents away instead of killing them.

And indeed, when she took a few more steps forward, she suddenly noticed multiple stunning spells flying towards her head. She used shadow magic to stop the spells by making the shadows form a shield around her. Her shadow shield stopped the spells, but Yue didn't cancel the spell.

She allowed the shadow shield to remain around her, knowing that her opponents couldn't see her at all. Then, in a single motion, she cancelled the shield and made a huge wave of wind move through the atrium she currently was walking in.

The wave of wind moved through the atrium, knocking down all her opponents. Then, with another wave of her hand, all the wands of her opponents flew towards her. She made her magic lay down the wands on the ground in front of her, knowing that the test was over and that she had passed it.

Then she heard someone slowly clapping. Yue looked in the direction of the sound and she found that it was a woman, who seemed to be around 40 years old. She had long black hair and green eyes, and Yue recognised her as Anya Orlov, the current president of magical Russia. She had been the president for the last 15 years.

Some people in other countries had once asked questions, wanting to know how she might have been still president, but the people had all stopped asking those questions once their leaders had been killed by an unknown disease.

So now, no one tried to go against her, and she had made it a law that she had to be voted out of office. Until she was voted out of office, there wouldn't be any elections, and anyone who tried to gather followers to vote her out had all been imprisoned for some crime.

Anya approached her, some other people following behind her. She stopped 5 metres away from here and smiled softly. "I am happy that you are here, Empress Yue, and that you are as strong as they promised. Stopping the army of Grindelwald won't be easy, and were were just going to make them die in the cold like we did with the German wizards and witches during their attack last time on Grindelwald was here."

I smirked and nodded. "And I am sure it would work. But eventually, the rest of Grindelwald's army would come, and then you would have to fight. If this country was the last free country, then it would eventually fall because it would be too difficult to defend."

President Orlov nodded. "Right, you are. That is why we were happy when we heard from the ICW that you were coming. Sceptical, but happy." I nodded in acceptance but knew that we had to start deciding our strategy. "Shall we get started on our strategy?"

President Orlov nodded and turned around. "We shall. Please follow me to the meeting room we prepared." I didn't say anything as I followed her through the halls of the ministry. After a few minutes, and after numerous turns, we arrived in a rather large meeting room with a big table.
