Sorry I haven't written a chapter lately guys, I just got a few bad test results and I've been a bit depressed recently. I'm kinda doubting my ability to write.
Harry's a Lord and the Wizarding World is a republic.
Voldemort stared at the display of pure, effortless wandless power in bewilderment.
"W-what? H-how? Even Albus Dumbledore can't perform that kind of magic!" Voldemort spluttered.
"I am Lord Potter." Harry said as if the answer should be obvious.
"So?" Voldemort said, utterly bemused.
"Since I'm part of the tournament – a tournament for adults – I am automatically of age. That means I get a Lordship and the ability to perform magic out of school and some other rights and honour stuff- I didn't pay much attention. Neville's showing me the ropes." Harry shrugged.
"Why does that mean you get awesome power?"
"I'm a Lord!"
"And…?"
"I dunno, something about 'familial magic' and heir rings- does it really matter? All you need to know is that I'm head of the ancient and noble Potter family and so automatically amazing." Harry crossed his arms huffily.
"It does- matter, that is. My whole force is made purely of old, pureblood families; at least half of them would be Lords and Ladies. I doubt such a ranking does exist,as that would imply a monarchy, and the Wizarding World is a republic. You could argue that we're in England and therefore under the rule of the Queen, but we're governed by an entirely different set of rules, so I doubt the Queen has any influence. We only inform the Prime Minister what's going on (and even then with great intimidation and patronisation, which is practically muggle baiting, when you think about it), not defer to him."
Harry had no idea how Voldemort knew all about muggle culture and the monarchy. Although there was that whole 'know thine enemy' thing...
"However, if we did have Lords and Ladies, and that status gave you extra magic or some other nonsense, then my number of high-ranking Pureblood families would far outweigh yours. Practically the only other Pureblood family you have on your side are the Weasleys, and their only special talents are; still managing to be impoverished even though they can use magic; and extreme fertility."
Harry was slightly disgusted, but he had to concede. The Weasley's were good at having babies. Voldemort continued with a smug grin.
"Also, with this whole 'amazing old family trumps all' aren't you arguing for Pureblood elitism? Mudbloods don't come from old families, and so with your reasoning, Purebloods are superior."
"… You know, now you mention it, I think I might just be coming into my inheritance."
