“Magic is real!” “There’s no way!” “This is a publicity stunt for a movie, right? There’s no way magic is real!” “Oh, it’s just like in the bible, the apocalypse is near!” Harry could hear the muggles murmuring.

“I know, it’s shocking and I know you have a lot of questions about this, we wizards and witches exist, and to prove my point, let me cast a spell!” Harry as Voldemort said with a stoic expression.

Soon everyone started to feel some kind of electrical energy in the air as the floating figure whispered something, the energy around them hadn't been harmful until now though, and just when they were about to ask more questions, it finally happened, Harry decided to launch his spell towards the sky and soon the whole city got covered by an intense emerald light.

But that wasn’t all, around the world, all people were able to see the cities covered with the same light, the astronauts in the international space station were able to see the planet covered in the light too and they got because in their heads only one thing could cause this: a nuclear war. They thought a nuclear war had just started but surprisingly, the light caught them too and they were worried until they were able to see on the internet a livestream of what was currently happening right now in New York.

The light remained like that for a few minutes until it finally disappeared, after that people started to question once again what the figure had done but soon, their questions were about to be answered.

“As I told you, us magical people have lived close to you since the start of human civilization, I don’t know why some of us have magic and you don’t, but the reason you didn’t know about our existence is because of something called the statute of secrecy,” Harry explained and the murmurs became louder.

Harry couldn’t help but smirk, he was imagining the reaction from the ICW if they were watching what was going on.

“There’s this organization called the ICW, the International Confederation of Wizards, and their purpose is to erase your memories in case you witness magic, that’s why I put a spell on the whole planet, with this spell they won’t be able to erase your minds!” Harry as Voldemort declared and the people were conflicted about this.

Some were curious about magic while others were scared, some of them were indifferent as no matter how cool magic may look, they still had to get to work.

“And why did I do it you may be asking yourself? Well, that’s because I’m lord Voldemort, the strongest wizard of all time and I come here to conquer this world to bring my people back to where they belong!” Harry declared in his best impression of the dark wizard.

He was able to see the anger on the people’s faces, luckily for them, he wasn’t Voldemort, if the monster were here he would have killed anyone who dared to look at him like that.

“Oh, so you think that your weapons you can defeat me?” Harry asked and the crowd cheered happily.

It was amusing to see some people with flags of the country, Harry was wondering where they got the flags, maybe watching too many movies about the apocalypse and the American army saving the day has deluded them into thinking they could defeat an army of powerful wizards like himself, Harry couldn’t help but chuckle the moment they started to chant their country's name.

“Well, if you trust your weapons so much then I guess I better get rid of them, right?” Asked Harry with a curious expression. “If you still don’t believe me let me show what else I can do…Let’s see what you guys can do against me, I’m just going to give you one piece of advice…Don’t rely too much on your nuclear weapons!” Harry said with a smirk before he got under the invisibility cloak and soon he disappeared from this place.

Soon the murmurs started, and the people started to wonder where the strange person was going, maybe the publicity stunt was finally over, that’s what many people in the middle of New York City wanted to believe, however, soon, alarms around the country started to sound, these were the alarms that were usually reserved in case of a nuclear attack.

Harry soon apparated outside a nuclear base with missiles ready to be launched, however, once again Harry was proving why he was so strong as it only took a very strong Lumos to damage the electronics that control the launching, the attack fried the complete electric system too and he didn’t stop there and unknown to the muggles, his magic was too strong that also turned the weapons into nothing but trash, even if they repaired the system, the weapons were completely useless.

This was something Harry always wanted to do in his original universe, not only he was worried about Voldemort, but he also wanted to stop the muggles from blowing the planet, and considering the current state of affairs in this universe in the year 2025, he knew h e had to do something, sadly, in his universe he was a good boy that respected the statute of secrecy more or less, well he did after he was told what that thing was when he was arrested for using his magic to make his bullies float around the school.

Back to the present, Harry was apparating across the country destroying and disabling all the bases that had nuclear weaponry and he didn’t stop there, he traveled across the planet doing the same thing, and the countries and the press couldn't believe what was happening, it only took one wizard to disable their triumph card.

Because Harry was attacking under the invisibility cloak, there was no way for them to predict where he was going to be to stop him before he attacked, reporters around the world were talking about the destruction of the nuclear bases and after almost an hour, the whole world realized something.

Wizards are scary when they want to be, they’re powerful and even the the muggles in power realized that the difference in numbers between them would not help them as much as they would think, after all, it only took one wizard to get rid of the strongest weapon humans have created.

Soon Harry was back in New York feeling completely excited after that show of power, but gone were the civilians and he was now surrounded by a small army.

“Fire!” They screamed and soon they started firing bullets, however, a shield from Harry was enough to stop the bullets, any average wizard would have easily died but Harry was not the average wizard.

“Listen to me…Your weapons can do nothing against me or my friends, trust me, that’s why I came here to tell you that you should better surrender to me, I’ll make good use of you, let’s not spill blood, you have twenty-four hours to make a decision!” Harry finally finished.

After that final message, the world was in chaos, the world leaders were shaking with fear as they all were having a video call and now they were regretting not putting a stop to wizards when they had the chance, instead, they were working alongside them.

The ICW wasn’t any different, they were completely divided, while most of them were angry that the statute was broken others were glad, they were tired of hiding who they were, for them not being able to act magical wherever they went was like hiding their sexuality, no one should have to hide what they were just to protect those who were weaker than them.

Some wizards and witches also strongly believed in blood supremacy, they wanted to kill anyone who wasn’t a pureblood, and if the chance to join Voldemort presented to them, they were going to gladly join him.

“The reports keep coming in, it seems like it’s true, the obliviator teams can’t make muggles forget what they’ve seen…It seems like our world is over,” the French prime minister said with a fearful tone.

“It seems like we don’t have any other choice than to declare war on Voldemort,” the Mexican prime minister said with a stern tone.

The thing they had tried to avoid for decades finally caught up to them, and now it was time to put a stop to it.
