Chapter 19

Weeks later, to nearly everyone's astonishment, Harry had already made huge improvements in the lives of the magical population of Britain. For one, his primary decree, that of guaranteed equality amongst magical beings, had met with quite a bit of resistance, which was absolutely crushed by Harry's many supporters. The blood purists were slowly becoming the silent minority. Werewolves and Vampires were being considered and hired for jobs in most industries, and the ICW sanctions were temporarily dropped on a trial basis due to new leadership.

Harry created a cabinet of ministers using a similar setup as the previous regime but with the corruption weeded out of it. Amelia Bones was head of magical law enforcement, and was elated at the influx of funding as well as the wider talent pool from which she could recruit. This was vital because there were still regions that resisted the new regime, and aurors were key to preserving order.

Arthur Weasley was made the minister of muggle relations, and was tasked with working directly with the muggle government on trade and territorial disputes. He also loosened restrictions on experimenting with enchantments on muggle items, which lead to the potential for massive commercial expansion within the country.

Eric Schultz, the werewolf representative that Harry met with before the revolution, was made minister of transportation, he was in charge of portkey registration, apparition licensing and the regulation and expansion of the Knight Bus Service.

While Gringotts remained its own sovereign nation, Harry did request permission to hire Grimrock, one of Gringotts' most savvy account managers, as the Minister of Commerce. This had met significant resistance amongst even some of the moderates, but Harry insisted that nobody knew more about commerce and investment than Goblins. Also, having a Goblin on the cabinet significantly improved relations between the Goblins and Humans.

Various other ministers were appointed to handle the various matters that required competent administration, the most notable exception was the topic of education which Harry retained himself since he owned Hogwarts and was unwilling to relinquish it to any government, even his own. Britain was still reeling from the abysmal education standards of the last hundred years, and he was determined to meet or exceed ICW standards in all subjects within five years.

Finally, Harry declared that he would retain dictatorial power over Magical Britain for a period of one year, at the end of which an election would be held to determine which direction governance would go from then on. All In all his simplistic view of government appeared to be precisely what the country needed. All of that delegation also allowed him to continue pursuing his primary goal: Eradication of Millennium. That very topic found him sitting at a table in the Hellsing cafeteria with Integra, Seras, Pip and Alucard.

"So we've had no word from Viktor, Father Anderson, or any of our local resources. I think it's time we cast our net out further." Harry said. Integra stared at him.

"It's really the best option. I have a lot more time on my hands now, Magical britain is on board to assist, even the Queen was keen on helping us. Integra, reach out to any foreign contacts you might have in Central Asia, I'll check with the Goblins to see if any of their associates abroad are willing to play ball, Pip see if you can work some of your old contacts in the area. Before we know it we'll track them down." Harry said. Integra stared at him.

"What?" Harry asked.

"What the fuck is that on your head?" Integra asked. Harry was wearing a burger king crown that he'd written 'GOBKING + GODEMPEROR' on it with sharpie.

"If I must bear the burden of offce then I'm going to reap the fuckin' rewards." Harry said, causing Pip, Seras, Integra and Hermione to burst out laughing.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with a little boy. Oh God that sounded awful." Harry said before apparating out.

"I miss Anderson." Alucard said. Harry arrived at Zorin and Rip's front lawn to find Schrodinger sitting bored on the front porch.

"They're at it again?" Harry asked with a grin.

"You'd think it would get old eventually." Schrodinger said. Harry laughed.

"Oh man wait until you're older. Well I mean, more aged. Whatever, it's ice cream time." Harry said, grabbing Schrodinger's shoulder and apparating to Diagon Alley. As was always the case when Harry arrived in a public place in the wizarding world, there were plenty of people to throw themselves at his feet in worship, then laugh when he threatened to stuff them in an oubliette.

"You know, Nero never had to put up with this shit. Keep it up and I'll get a fiddle." Harry said, glaring at Fred and George who were laughing

"Alright enough fun. We're off to get pick up our potions ingredients." Fred said

"Yeah try not to kick yourselves in the balls on the way out the door." Harry said.

"We're outside though." George observed.

"OFF WITH HIS HEAD!" Harry shouted pointing at George.

"I'll get right on that, my liege." a passing Auror said with a grin. Harry pouted an Schrodinger laughed. It was a short walk to Florean Fortescue's.

"Oh look it's King Shit of Fuck Mountain." Luna said dropping two knuts in the swear jar.

"Har dee fuckin' har." Harry said dropping a knut in the jar.

"You two are awful fucking role models." Schrodinger said, then reaching in his pockets and looking sheepish.

"I got it." Harry said dropping in a knut.

"We'll set up a tab for you." Harry said with a grin.

"The usual?" Luna asked.

"I dunno, what you thinking Schrodinger?" Harry asked.

"How about Harry Cotton Candy?" Schrodinger asked.

"Good choice." Harry said handing Luna a vial.

"I'll take the same, hold the blood." Harry said with a grin. He found he had to specify after Luna accidentally served him a chocolate sundae with his own blood in it. It was gross. He still ate it, but yeah.

"Ankle still holding up ok?" Harry asked. Luna nodded

"Yes, the new healers at St. Mungos were appalled that they never looked for cartilage damage the first time." Luna said.

"I'm glad. So I have ulterior motives for being here today." Harry said.

"Of fucking course you do." Luna said dropping a knut.

"On your snorkack hunts, did you and your father ever make any acquaintances in Scandinavia?" Harry asked.

"You're in luck! We stayed in a Veela village in Finland two years ago, and one of the women that lived there is actually staying at the Leaky Cauldron right now. A few of them left Britain twenty years ago and they're exploring the possibility of returning. After you finish your ice cream we can go over there." Luna said.

"Awesome! Schrodinger you're gonna meet some more Veela." Harry said.

"Oh can we bring Sirius?" Schrodinger said, grinning mischievously.

"I wish! He's spending the day with Narcissa and Andromeda catching up." Harry said.

"That's a shame, it was really funny." Schrodinger said.

-Flashback-

Harry, Schrodinger and Sirius made their way to a clearing in the forests of Wales where they had requested a meeting with one of the last colonies in the UK. Their goal was to gain support for the upcoming revolution. Veela tended to live together for safety's sake, and all but a few groups had been driven to the continent.

"Mr. Potter, is that you?" A quiet voice asked from behind a tree.

"Yes, Muriel right?" Harry said. A woman of goddess-level beauty stepped out into the clearing along with several other gorgeous women. Harry was proud when Schrodinger hid behind him, completely unaffected yet still shy. Sirius on the other hand...

"Good afternoon, ladies you're looking quite radiant today!" Sirius said, his eyes slightly unfocused.

"This is my idiot godfather, who has absolutely zero resistance to allure. Feel free to humiliate him, I will mock him mercilessly later." Harry offered.

"You are not similarly affected?" Muriel asked. Sirius started flexing his muscles.

"No, we never figured out why. One of my friends, Fleur Delacour has never been able to affect me even when she actively tries." Harry said.

"Why did she hit you with the allure intentionally?" Muriel asked incredulously.

"Because I asked her to." Harry replied.

"Why?!" Muriel asked completely aghast.

"For funsies." Harry said, grinning. Sirius picked up three rocks and tried juggling them only to hit himself in the face with two of them.

"You are a peculiar man, Harry Potter." Muriel said.

"Potter-Victoria and yeah I get that a lot. Hey wanna see something hilarious?" Harry asked.

"I'm intrigued." Muriel said with a smirk. Harry walked over to Sirius and got him in a full nelson.

"Harry what the fuck man, not in front of the birds." Sirius said.

"Hit him with the allure, medium-style" Harry said with a grin. Muriel quirked an eyebrow then concentrated.

"Boooooooooobies!" Sirius yelled as loud as he could.

"The funny thing is he eventually cycles from horny to just stupid. Hit him harder." Harry said.

"Why do we even need an alphabet anyway? Writing is for assholes!" Sirius screamed. Muriel and the other veela were giggling mercilessly.

"I AM IN LOVE WITH LUCIUS MALFOY!" Sirius bellowed.

"Ok, we might have taken this too far." Harry said, looking concerned. The Veela relented and Sirius blushed wildly.

"We will have words later, Godson." Sirius said.

"And one of those words will be 'Pensieve.'" Harry said with a grin. Sirius lunged at Harry but Schrodinger grabbed him before he could.

"I'MA KILL HIM!" Sirius yelled.

-End Flashback-

"It's messed up that Muriel ended up asking him out on a date after that." Harry observed.

"Maybe it was a pity date?" Schrodinger said.

"I am so goddamn proud of you." Harry said with a grin and dropping a knut in the jar.
