"Dad, we're back." Magnus arrived back at the embassy. Though it was in a different car this ti. Grace was also there, all safe and sound.
The ambassador, who had nearly shat himself before, ca running to look at Magnus and his siblings. He made sure they were fine and then fell down, unconscious. He was probably being threatened by the London side that if sothing happened to any of them his life will be in a ss.
The Pri Minister of the United Kingdom and also the Queen were inford about this incident, though they rely shrugged and went on to do their daily work as if they didn't care. But they did pray for the souls of the attackers before.
Grace smiled and went inside the building with the kids. Magnus didn't do that, however, he told the ambassador's secretary, "Connect with the Vice President of the country."
The secretary looked at Adam, who only nodded at him. Taking the order, the man led Magnus inside the ambassador's office and connected the call.
Magnus took the phone and told the man to leave. Then he cast a spell so nobody could enter. The call was already connected so he waited for the Vice President to pick it up. "Hello, Mr ambassador, I assure you that we are looking into the situation with utmost priority. We have deployed every single law enforcent officer to this case..."
"Vice President Gerald Ford?" Magnus spoke.
The Vice President didn't recognise the voice and it felt too young, "Who are you?"
"I am Magnus Grant Emrys Pendragon. You should know about since you're about to beco the next president of this country. Call back law enforcent. I have taken care of it. You should thank , I just gifted you a present that will make your presidency stable." Magnus said in one breath.
Gerald Ford was stunned, "What is that, your highness?"
"You don't have any Mafia left in New York City now. The four families are completely dead, do not worry about their bodies, you shall only get the bodies of the 4 bosses. Take care, and we shall probably et again soon." He hung up the call.
Gerald Ford, sitting in his office, thought about what he had just found out, ~If I play my cards right, I can take credit for this. But... I cannot tell them they attacked the royal family.~
...
Anyway, the ss was cleared, though the massacre of the 4 families was still going on as the Army of rlin dealt with them rcilessly. Magnus had returned to be with his family and with a stern warning he told all the officials to stay away from his family's relaxing ti. They didn't co here to attend etings and charity events.
This ti he hired DA to take care of his whole tour, everything from the cars to the planes were theirs now.
"Okay mum, where do you want to go?" He asked her. She had probably already enjoyed her ti in Calot more than she would here anyway. Duck was just so fun to be around.
"Umm... I have never seen a desert, I heard the Grand Canyon is beautiful." Grace suggested.
And so the plan was finalised. "Let's call Duck, he can be our flying machine,"
And so, Duck was called, the boy was so happy to be a part of family events. Magnus nearly felt bad for him, as Duck just wants to spend more ti with him but his size does not allow him.
"OW!" Chad said hello to Duck after getting on his back.
"Hello, Chad, see I've grown up and you're still smol. Hehe..." Duck had fun teasing Chad.
Soon, they all sat on his giant back, but Duck then started speaking, "Ah, I saw this in a movie. Passengers, this is your captain speaking... umm... please tie your seatbelts... I forgot the rest. Here we goooooo..."
And so they flew over the broad, intricately sculptured chasm of the canyon containing between its outer walls a multitude of imposing peaks, buttes, gorges, and ravines. A few rivers flowed through the drylands, the heat was high, yet effects of magic, they felt nothing.
Duck enjoyed his ti with his family, showing them the best areas and animals he noticed on the ground. "Dad, where to go next?"
"Niagara Falls!" Adam spoke.
Duck turned his face at Magnus, asking for help in navigation without speaking. Magnus found it cute, he patted him and directed him, "Go north."
With Duck's speed, it was super easy to watch all the natural wonders of the country. Now all that was left was to experience the manmade things. Poor Duck was tired and satisfied from flying the entire day so he decided to rest back in Calot.
For the coming week, they would go around the whole country and look at various museums, monunts and whatnot. In the second week, they were invited to the White House by Nixon. Magnus didn't reject it and in fact, asked the wizard President to co as well, and Magnus was more interested in eting the wizard one since the man was an acquaintance, his 1st-year DADA professor, Harrison Ford.
Magnus t them at the White House, he ignored Nixon, the man's career was gone. Gerald Ford was the main deal now. He told the man about his companies facing illegal monopolistic opposition from Arican companies, and the man promised to look into them.
The rest of the ti was spent talking to MACUSA president Harrison Ford. "How are you, professor? I thought you were going to retire after coming back to the United States."
The old man chuckled, "Oh, I wanted to do that so much. But seeing the condition of MACUSA, I felt I needed to do sothing, and hence, I ran for elections. I am taking your example, doing sothing good for the world."
Magnus nodded in approval, "Only if everyone was like you, professor. But I have a suggestion, why not run for muggle elections? I can see that you will do so much good for the nation. This way we can be better partners. Currently, I don't see the United States as a beacon of freedom and democracy anymore. It has fallen into the money pit, human lives are worthless to it now."
"I feel the sa, but I do not have any dreams of standing up for muggles. I feel a wizard running in muggle elections is unfair. Leave this, are you going to co to Ilvermorny?" Harrison asked.
"Yes, their headmistress invited herself. Well, I'm going to go and talk to so rich folks now." He moved on to talk with other people.
...
Their vacation in the United States lasted two weeks. At that ti, Magnus also went to Ilvermorny, where he gave a speech and just left after that. He wanted to avoid the sa disaster as the french one.
After 2nd week, their ti in the country ca to an end. Their next stop was Bhutan. The Buddhist landlocked kingdom on the Himalayas' eastern edge, known for its monasteries, fortresses and dramatic landscapes that range from subtropical plains to steep mountains and valleys. The country had a population of just about 300,000.
Bhutan was a Monarchy, and the people of the country completely supported this system, without anyone forcing them to. It was also among the newest country that joined the United Nations, just in 1971.
Bhutan maintains strong economic, strategic, and military relations with India. Heck, the country had handed over all its foreign affairs to India. (A/N: In 2007 it was revised.)
For Magnus, this was the perfect place to have his stronghold. He was in the middle of China(Tibet) and India. He can help the Bhutanese with his wealth in return for their ignorance. On top of that, due to their small population, the wizards were in just hundreds. Magnus' Army of rlin had more than this.
When their plane landed in Bhutan's capital, they were greeted by the current King of Bhutan, Jig Singye Wangchuck. The man was just 19 and had recently been coronated in June, on top of that, he had studied at Heatherdown School in England.
Magnus was chill with him, he had no problem with monarchs being young, he was also young. All he cared about was that the man must be smart. And from the looks of it, King Wangchuck seed smart, he behaved orderly with them. Though the reason behind this was that King Wangchuk had Buddhist wizard monk advisors, and getting a copy of Magical Daily was not hard. Hence, they knew very well of Magnus' grand secret Identity.
That evening, they had a grand feast. There were no journalists around them. Grace, Ragnar, Adam enjoyed the fresh Himalayan air much more than the United States or the UK. They road around in the fields, plucked apples, climbed mountains, milked cows, heard sheep.
It was an amazing experience. Slowly, Magnus made the young King a friend, though he knew the Bhutanese King was wary of him, mainly due to his country's colonial past.
Yet, they talked a lot, Magnus liked the fact that King Wangchuck was smart when it ca to world affairs. He knew what was going on in the West, in the Arab world, and of course, in the UK.
"Magnus, I refuse to believe that you seriously ca here just for vacation. Don't get wrong, you and your family are always welco, but... I just can't understand how this small nation which most of the world don't even know about caught your attention? You have everything, power, fa, money, what can you get here?" King Wangchuck curiously asked.
Magnus chuckled, "I have a dream, my friend. A dream to one day see the world at peace, with no wars, humanity united and strong together. It's wishful thinking, but if I am able to achieve even 70 per cent of that before I die, I will consider my mission successful. And I can't do that without having the two most populous countries calm and peaceful."
King Wangchuck chuckled, "Haha, you want to use Bhutan to influence India and China? Co on, Magnus, they can bomb my country out of the world map in minutes. And China has nukes, while India is developing them."
"No, Wangchuck, I do not want to bring you into this ss directly. Instead, I want to make you stand out as an example. I want the world to see how profitable it is to ally with . I shall turn your country into an eco-friendly economic powerhouse, bigger than most countries in Asia. I can do it easily as your population is low. And that's when India and China will take each of my words seriously.
"I do not care about your religion, I care for no religion, all I care about is peace. So don't think I am coloniser 2.0. Think about it and tell your decision. I will leave in a week. Take care," Magnus returned to his family, leaving the young kind in a storm of thought.
Magnus was honest, and he wanted to lead the world by example. This was his way of clearing up Britain's unsavoury colonial past.
