In the Harry Potter Without Harry Potter Chapter 478: The split that occurred before it even started

Lucius led the group of purebloods and walked down the Manor.

In fact, he did not expect to be able to win with this group of rabble. As long as these people can listen to his command, and salvage a little bit of the situation that has obviously beco extrely poor, then everyone still has the hope of escaping.

But there were so among the purebloods who didn't see it that way, even though Lucius had already confird his command.

"We can't just charge out blindly." Amycus, the highest-ranking person of the Carrow family in the Death Eaters and a forr professor at Hogwarts Castle said grimly. "Don't forget how we concealed this place, with the protection of the Fidelius Charm, as long as the Secret-Keeper doesn't divulge the secret, no one can find this place at all! But now the Witching Horizon people are here unexpectedly! I wonder if we should get things straightened out on our internal affairs first!"

Lucius was annoyed, of course, it wasn't as if he hadn't thought about it.

The reason why the purebloods were all gathered at Carrow Manor, not afraid of being wiped out, was because they had absolute confidence that they could hide in this base, and even back when everyone had just moved in, the Carrow family had once said boldly that even if the British Ministry of Magic was attacked soday, this Manor would definitely be safe and sound.

However, the Ministry of Magic hadn't been breached, nor had Diagon Alley, but the Carrow family's Manor had been knocked on their doorstep by the people of Witching Horizon without them realising it!

And it certainly wasn't that Lucius hadn't thought about it, he was simply unwilling to delve into it, didn't even want to ntion it.

At this point in ti, they should not engage in internal conflicts while fighting against the enemy, right?

We should all run out first, and live to tell the tale!

But after Amycus said this out loud, there was definitely no way to take it back, and right here in the narrow stairway, dozens of purebloods were holding their wands in their hands and looking at each other.

Outside the Manor, there were constant explosions and screams that were clearly getting closer and closer, and those Aurors were no match for Witching Horizon's n!

And regarding who exactly the Secret-Keeper of the Fidelius Charm was, only the Carrow family knew for sure, and now that Amycus had brought this issue up without imdiately naming the one who had leaked the secret, it was even more so that everyone present had started to beco wary of the people around them.

"So who was the Secret-Keeper who leaked the secret?" Lucius did his best to suppress his anger, "You point him out right now!"

"It was Theodore from the Macmillan family! But he is missing! I've been trying to find him since the beginning, but I can't find him anywhere!"

Lucius felt himself going mad.

"The man is gone then what's the point of talking about it now!"

Amycus however turned his attention to the two young wizards with nervous faces.

"But his two nephews are still around! The fact that he can leak the secret ans that the Macmillan's can't be trusted anymore! We have to get rid of this hidden danger first!"

With everyone's eyes fixed on them, the two young n from the Macmillan family loudly argued in their own defence.

"We didn't know about this matter at all! The matter of Uncle being a Secret-Keeper is unknown to everyone else except you! You can't just implicate us in the offence by association!"

"But none of us can take any chances at this ti!" Amycus's sister, the fat as a pig Alecto had sohow turned her wand on them and the people they stood by.

The two Macmillan brothers seed to be well-liked among the purebloods, and there were quite a few people around their age who were constantly defending them. Such defences soon turned into argunts, which made the situation more and more noisy and confusing!

"Enough!!!"

Lucius' loud roar silenced all the voices.

He stared at the two Carrow siblings with crimson eyes and said with ragged breathing.

"This is simply not the ti to deal with internal problems! Either we go down now and fight for all of our lives! Or we all die here!"

This ti however Amycus showed no more faith in Lucius as he snorted coldly.

"Of course, we'll go and fight, but we'll never give our backs to a few people who can't be trusted! Let's go!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and led the way from here, and instantly a group of the Carrow family followed right behind him, as well as a few of their family in-laws, who also followed along after hesitating.

Before they even started to join the battlefield, the purebloods were now split into two different groups, Lucius knew that he couldn't wait any longer, if they let Auror be dealt with cleanly bit by bit, then it would be totally ridiculous for them to try to figure out a way out of the battlefield just by relying on this many people!

"Those who want to live, follow !"

This remaining majority of purebloods certainly had no other choice, they could only follow Lucius to the end of this path.

And on the side of the group of people led by the Carrow siblings.

With a nervous and uneasy face, Alecto ca over to her brother's side.

"There are too few of us."

Amycus glared at her, lowering his voice to a volu only the two could hear.

"It was all for you, I don't know how you leaked it! You couldn't explain it even if I asked you, we could only kill one person first and make him take the bla in the na of his disappearance!"

Alecto knew she was in the wrong and couldn't say anything more on the subject, but she continued with the question she had just asked.

"But why must we separate from Lucius and the others?"

"What do you think the chances of us surviving by gathering together are?"

Amycus, after asking this question to his sister, suddenly increased the volu of his voice so that the other purebloods who had followed him to break away from Lucius's group could hear what he was saying.

"Only if a small number of us separate from them and let them draw the vast majority of the attention, then we can all survive!"

It was only now that these people finally understood the intent of why Amycus had made sure to split with Lucius and not intervene when Lucius had secured the leadership in the first place.

There were a lot of brainless fools among the pureblood wizards, but they almost all used their small intelligence to the extre when it ca to how to protect themselves.

In this situation, Lucius pulling everyone out of the abyss and uniting them together was for self-preservation, and Amycus causing a split and wanting to form a small group to act alone was also for self-preservation.

Defending their own interests is the main thing, as for the death or life of other purebloods and Voldemort's ambitions?

It's none of their business.

Their lord himself didn't care, so how could any of these people possibly care?

And so, Amycus led the n in the opposite direction of Lucius and the others, towards the outside of the Manor in an attempt to break out and flee for their lives!
